tricts were without credentials, but there
was no opposition TO their admltianc".

and many Republicans did not know they
were to be held; there was no contest on hand
and some who were aware OF the primaries
| did not attend on account OF the ram; on

WEDNESDAY, SEPTEMBER g., 1900.

Everybody who saw the labor parade
in Denver Monday must have been i'm
pressed with the prosperous look of the
men in line. 1t was In many respects
the finest showing the labor unions Of
Denver have ever made. Great care
and not a little money we're bestowed
upon the uniforms that distinguished
the various unions The tin workers,
for instance, helmets of tin and
carried big tin swords. Other bodies
were uniformed and ]accoutered in equ-
ally striking fashion. Such things as
these are indicative not only of the
prosperity Of the working men but also
Of the good humor they are in. The

Two Couples Throwing on the Mari
tai Yoke.

New York, Sept. Am order that
her husband, son Of the man who plan
ned the Administration building at
the Worlds fair, may be free to ~Ad
another woman, Mrs. Richard H. Hunt
has applied to the courts of South Da-
kota to cut the marriage ties that bind
her to her unwilling mate.
Two of her children are with her,
and the third, her little son, is on his
way today to Join the mother who has
been made to suffer so cruelty.
They were married fifteen years ago
and their beautiful home at Garden
City, l.. l., was made happy by the
three children who were born to them.
There were never a cloud to mar the
| serenity Of their domestic life until
Mr.. and Mrs. Walter Watrous became
their neighbors.
The families were attracted to each
other at first and the women were soon
on the best Of terms. Together they
established the Shawmut kennels,
| which have won many prizes in the
bench shows.
Meanwhile the Spanish war broke out
and Mrs. Hunt, fired with a nobility
of purpose that endeared her to the
nation, devoted her services to nuns
ing the wounded soldiers at Camp
| Wyckot.
1t was In the midst Of her sacrifices
for her country's cause that she
learned OF the change that had come
over her husband. She returned to her
home and was met at the station by
the man who she had lworshipped for
fifteen years, only to be told, coldly,
cruelty and bluntly, that he loved an
other and wanted his freedom. He
told her plainly that she had no
charms for him, that the past count
ed for naught, for he had found anoth-
er woman, without whose companion
ship his life would be a blank.
Mrs. Hunt was horror-stricken.
That her happy home was to be brok-
en- up forever by the woman she had
called friend was beyond belief at first.
Her husband begged her to grant him
his freedom. His children, his home,
what the world would shy was moth
ing to him. His heart knew but one
object in life, and that was to make
their beautiful neighbor his own.
Mrs. Watrous desired her freedom
also, for she was caught In the mael.
strom Of love that had wrecked two
homes.

POLITICAL NOTES.

There is no reason to doubt that the
democratic national convention commit
tee will pay all the expenses OF theanti-
imperialists and all other ostrich or
CARNATIONS calculated to support Bry-
an on the side.
Do not forget that Bryan is pledged
to pay in silver the first government
obligation hat he gets a chance to pay
at all. And do not forget that the mo-
ment he does that we are on a silver
basis.
Pretty soon mayor Van Wyck Of New
York will soon begin to realize better
than ever before that there is not so
very much fun in being the ice man.
Yes, Mr.. Bryan, we are ashamed, mil
lions OF us, that the Filipinos are ex-
pecting aid from the democrats in this
election.
1t is becoming evident that Mr.. Bry-
an does not want much said about free
silver before the election. The Ameri-
can people, however, are not SO much
concerned in what nay be said before
election as in what will be done after
election.
