TO TEST THE CONSTITUTION.
Legality of the Characterization of
 Silver Will be Decided.

Denver, Colo. Dec. 14.-W. A. Fucker, president of the United States Monetary League, left here for St. Louis, where he will hold a conference with the gov ernors of several states friendly to the free coinage of silver rel ative to the suit which is about to be begun by the state of Col orado for the purpose of secur- ing a decision by the U. S. su- preme court as to the legality of the demonetization of silver.
 The general assembly of the state passed a joint resolution authorizing the governor to take steps to bring this question be- fore the supreme court. After consultation with several prom inent men of the state, Governor Thomas settled upon the course of action. The first step was to authorize President Rucker, un- der the general seal of the state, to confer with other governors to raise the funds necessary to bring the case before the su- ,D,-ar,oo co11rt Of the Tinted State The replies from the governors of those states recognizing sill yer should be on an equality with gold as the circulating medium of value has been lost, are satisfactory, promising as sistance and, if possible, active cooperation.

We Want the "Open Range. "

It is difficult for a person who has lived in the west for any length of time to believe that the governor of Wyoming is sin cere in his purpose, or that he is not working in the interest of the large syndicates that are being formed all over the country for the purpose of controlling the stock interests of this county in his advocacy of the lease law. That a lease law for the western country would be the death knell of the small stockmen and farm CTS, as well as the sheep men, no one can truthfully deny. Take the open range from the people of New Mexico and other west ern territories and states, and you destroy the legitimate busi- ness of large and prosperous class of good citizens, the very mainstay of the country. The conditions existing in the west where as rule only Compara- lively small areas can be culti- vated makes the open range an necessity to farmers and stockmen who own small punches of stock and have little ranches at springs and along the streams in this country.-Chief= tain. &

cordial, and it is possible Ruck CT will go to that state to meet the governor and state officials before proceeding to Washing ton.
 The suit against the govern ment of the United States will be begun by action in Denver. The United States monetary league will give the state of Col orado, as a present, solid sill yer brick of the purest metal of an hundred ounces and repre- senting an hundred dollars at the par ratio. The treasurer of the state will then formally pre- sent the brick to the state. The state will send it to the United states mint at Washington with the demand it be coined into an hundred silver dollars.
 "Te demand, of course," says Rucker, twill be refused. Upon the refusal, suit will be entered in the United States supreme court, for we have a right, un- der the constitution, to demand the bullion be coined.
 "The question will be raised as to where the constitution lands us. The suit is brought in the name of the state of Colorado, to secure more rapid action than otherwise would be given"
 Fucker will be assisted by counsel from this and other states.

PRESIDENT JORDAN'S VIEWS.

In his book titled Imperial Demo-
cracy," President Jordan, for whose
Virile thought and breadth of views,
we have unbounded admiration, at
tempts to draw a dead line" around
the tropics, and declares that the white
ventures to say that, among hundreds
of colonial experiments in Brazil, in Is
dia, in Africa, in China, there is not,
today, such a thing as a self-Support-
ing European colony in the tropics
President JOrdani is certainly not fam
iliar with the facts, and especially
ignores the underlying fact that. man
is the most cosmopolitan of mammals.
He is putting limitations on men which
do not exist. If he will read Olmsted's
Seaboard and Slave States published
in 1850, the book that especially en-
ragged the slave owners of the South,
he will find in it the argument advanced
by every slave owner that slavery must
be maintained, because the white man
could not work in the cotton fields.
Thirty years after the overthrow of
slavery, thousands of white men We're
working successfully in the cotton
fields, and, according to the last cen
sus, Southern white labor commanded
nearly double the price of negro labor.
So the dead line was pushed further
towards the equator. The English set
tiers in Northern Queensland, a tro
pical country in which the sugar cane
is largely cultivated, are thriving well,
and are self-supporting. The Quarterly
Review, in a recent issue quotes Sir
Joseph Fayrer, who had charge of the
Lawrence Orphanage in India. He
said, Children could thrive in India
as well as in England, not only in the
hill stations, but in the very plains OF
Bengal" Improved sanitation has re-
duced the mortality of the British
troops in India from 50 per 1000 to II
per 1000. w. E. Curtis, recently re-
ported that the French surgeons con-
nected with the Panama canal, had
entirely stopped the fearful mortality

Sir Charles Markham, gathering all

two centuries in the tropics without
loss of mental and physical vigor.
There are enough white men at work
in the fields, in Africa, in the West In

DOWN WITH THE TOWARDS.

The Bulletin as the representative OF
the Opposition TO the government, now
includes Gen. HartwelI among the
towards" who hesitated about aban-
tloning Hawaiian neutrality, during the
Spanish war. and it sincerely believes
that he is not fl representative Of the
Territory in Washington. It sternly
rebukes the sending of any white
feathers" TO Washington, even if Pres
ioent Mckinley has continued the
white feathers in the highest Ter
Titorial offices.
Although Gen. HartWell was rapidly
promoted during the Civil war, and re-
ceived the commission of Brigadier
General for gallant services in battle
and was wounded four times, and is
also, with President Mckinley, a mem
Der of the Loyal Legion, the Opposition
still believe that he wears the white
feather.
Let the Opposition, therefore, for
ward at once to the President a certi-
ficate of the Generals cowardice,
Diplomatic Agent, and demand a re-
fusal of recognition. The certificate
might be associated with some photog-
raphic views of the Spanish fleet off
Diamond Head, and the serried ranks
of the Opposition drawn up in arms
on the shore. impatiently waiting for
the word that unleashes the terrible
dogs of war. AS not one of the Oppo-
sitiOn has smelt powder save as it is
revealed in the terrors OF an explosion
of Chinese fire crackers, on some fes
tive occasion, any sickly expression of
woe appearing on the faces of these
warriors may be explained as automa-
tic or involuntary, and in no sense in
dicative of the vast resources OF bound
less courage within their breasts
The certificate and the photographs
ought to fetch the President, the Loyal |
Legion, and G.. A. r. and crush the |
General. No doubt the President will |
at once repeat the Dreyfus incident in |
front of the White house, cut off his |
send the General bound |
in chains to Neckar Island for life.
In order to prevent any miscarriage |
of justice in the case, would not the }
Council of State vote a sum of money |
with which to defray the expenses of
the Opposition in defending the char
acter of Hawaii? The Opposition must
not let this affair go by default. The
editor of the late Volcano as one
of the distinguished Opposition could
be a worthy, and more than worthy,
in behalf of the Sufferers
and the Disappointed.

But the white man has never serious

His expansion. heretofore is in the
temperate belt. His conquest Of the

Queensland and in parts of South

has been no attempt made to colOnize
Americans, but most energetic at

colonization OF Portuguese was arrest

governed by the question of profits, and
not civilization. The temperate zones
