COLORADO POLITICS.
Democrats, Silver Republicans and
Populists Will Fuse.

GLENWOOD SPRINGS (ColO, Aug.
16. The State Executive Committee
of the Silver Republicans, Democrats
and Populists of Colorado tonight
adopted a resolution favoring fusion
of the three parties in the coming State
election, but no agreement was reached
apportioning the different State offices.
This was left to the discretion of the
three State conventions, which meet in
Colorado Springs in September.
The conference has been in session
for two days in this city, and the agree
ment to fuse was not reached until
after hard fight against the union
was made by the opponents of the
proposition, although when the vote
was finally taken it resulted 70 to L
in favor of fusion.

A New era.

The past week has probably marked
a new epoch in American history.
American armies have landed on for
eign soil, not lying contiguous TO our
borders, and for the purpose of con-
quest. Footholds have been obtained
in two places separated by half the
circuit of the globe. Not only is this
trne, but majority OF the people Of
the country seem disposed TO hold on
TO whatever we conquer,
This means an entire change in
both our foreign and domestic rela-
tions--a change OF momentous in
terest not only to this country but to
the world. It means that we must
abandon the Monroe doctrine, which
has been our foreign policy since the
foundation of the republic, and which
has made US the predominant infin-
ence in the western hemisphere, and
that we will reach out after com
manding position in the affairs of the
world There is no question but
what the large majority of the people
favor this policy now, but it is an
open question if there VIII not be a
reaction when the war fever cools
down.
In such crisis IT is grand and
fortunate thing for the nation that
the wise statesmanship, calm deiib-
Grafton and courageous heart of Pres
ident William Mckinley is at the
helm to guide the ship Of state
through the breakers ahead.

The democratic party like Inc

its present condition is one to bor-
row a phrase from DR.. Cleveland =
of innocuous desue.ude, And like
the fleet again, it owes its present

condition to the careful forethought
and high personal courage of one
man. 1t may be objected that the
parallelism fails in that in DIR. Dew

the inside. and that DR.. Cleveland
went down with the thing he de
