MAYOR wAiTELEY'S VIEWS.

New Comp my Will he Warmly Received.
Hut Not Dollar for Tribute.
Mayor Whiteley in the Denver News:
81 know of no better way to express
my views than to repeat my statement
made to the representatives of the pro-
posed road. l said to them that be
lieved Boulder people would greet them
with open arms, in 50 far as it is consist
ent with fair dealing with the street rail
way com pany operating here at present.
OF course Boulder will offer 10 bonus in
the way of purchasing rights. of.way, as
believe that any institution that estab
fishes in the city does so as business
and not as a charitable undertaking.
believe as merchant that the road will
benefit Boulder and will increase its i'm.
portance in every way.
"In concluding my conversation with
them. l advised that their attorney ex-
anime the records of the franchise grant.
ed the Boulder Electric and Utility COM
pany. as that company had come to the
city's aid in furnishing rapid transit to
the Chautauqua when the question was a
very embarrassing one, and had in conse
Quence secured a franchise that was
broader probably than any city in the
state would grant. did not venture to
give them legal opinion on the matter,
but did say that thought the present
company possessed such franchise as
to place them in very strong position
and that the people here would undoub:-
eddy hold their interests as of paramount
importance"
The franchise alluded to gives the
Boulder company the use OF all Boulder
streets, for all sorts OF electrical enter.
prises, and similar franchise extending
over all roads of the county was granted
by the county commissioners. Under
the circumstances it is the general op,n.
ion that the best method for the proposed
road to pursue is to absorb the Boulder
company and secure its rights and priv
ileges. If such course is pursued. that
is, course that will not conflict with the
interests of the local company, there is
little doubt that the proposed Northern
company will secure any necessary con.
cessions from the city that it may de-
mand.

They We're furnished by the British au-
thorties with clothes, hats and boots,

We're union men or not. A continued idle
ness of over 10000 men at that time was
avcrted by a withdrawal of the Allied
Trades order, pending an effort to effect
a compromise with the carpenters union.
This having now failed. the matter has
again assumed the critical situation and

number of delegates from Minnesota.
Washington and Idaho. Senator Heit-
field of Idaho and Temporary Chairman
L. Nj. Ringdale Of Minnesota were
among the newcomers.
Some of the Minnesotans cast some
what of damper upon Towne's pros
poets for the vice presidential nomina-
tion by declaring that they were more !
concerned over bringing the convention
to harmonious conclusion than they
were of securing the nomination of any ,,
one. While devoted to Mr.. Towne, they I
do not propose to allow personality to
stand in the way. and, if need be, they I,
are willing to adjourn without making :.
any nomination, referring the entire aues- .
tion to conference committee. Others I,
say that Mr.. Towne may be counted
upon. if nominated, to get out of the way
II he should prove unacceptable to the :,
Democrats. Senator pettigrew is still 4
pressing Towne's claims.
The convention will not adjourn with

'and if Mr.. Towne cannot get the honor

Butler announced that the city of Sioux

sired to make, in formal manner, ten
