dugEenheim Files His Letter.


DENVER, Oct. 8.-As was intima-
ted in these dispatches yesterday
Simon Guggenheim rendered his res
ignation of the nomination of govern
or on the Silver Republican ticket.
In his letter Mr.. Guggenheim says:
i am certain that your committee
can select some standard bearer who
will unite all elements Of the Silver
Republican party and who can be tri-
umphantly elected. The Silver Re-
publican party is the dominant one in
the state, and the best interests of
Colorado are represented by it. The
triumph of Democracy means unrest
and injury to the business interests
of the state. The triumph of the
Silver Republican party means unpar-
allied prosperity as well as placing the
great and all absorbing silver ques-
tion in the hands of a party which is
sincere in the advocacy Of silver for
silver's sake alone. instead Of in the
hands of those who have advocated
its cause purely for the suffrage of
the people that might thereby be Sc
cured and thus advance individual
and selfish ambitions Of party leaders.
For the success, therefore, Of the
Silver Republican party is my resig-
nation presented"

month. There was an increase in
both tonnage and values, but the IN
crease in the former was out Of Ill

The reports from the process nils
show uniform decrease IN the
average value Of each ton Of ore nd
the total output ia about $4,000 less
than was anticipated, namely, ST.
100000. For several months past
the values have been rapidly increas-
ing, which makes this sudden decline
all the more unaccountable.
