Colorado I. a Cola State.

Coloradoans have noted that nature
in regulating the output Of the two
metals, works Independently of poll
ticians or financial manipulators. From
a silver state, in the early nineties,
Colorado was soon transformed into a
gold-mining state. When silver was
at a low ebb, the gold camp of Cripple
Creek began to loom up. In 1891 the
gold product of this great district was
only 5000, ooo; in 1893 it had risen to
$1,000, 900. In 1896, when the silver
miners were crying loudly for govern
ment aid and Organism was rampant,
it yielded $1,000, 900. Last year it pro-
duced $780, 23, GA, and this years output
will come close to $50, 900, 900. When it
Is remembered that the total silver
product of the whole State of Colorado
last year was only $13, I'll, 731, the great
change in mining conditions as we'll as
their natural import at once become

The Issues Boiled Down.

II do not know of any stronger ap-
peal that can be made for Republican
votes than a recital of the last four
years, as compared with the previous
four years. Boiled down the issues are
McKinleyism and Organism. Boiled
down it is free silver and free trade on
Bryan's side and prosperity and devel-
opment on ours. Out West the argu-
ment of imperialism is played out.
Mr.. Bryan will not talk free silver in
the Empire State unless you force him
to, and I want you to force him to. I
have frequently expressed publicly thai
the Republicans in this state and
country are feeling too sanguine as to
the result. The Republican national
committee does not take any chances.
The issues in this campaign are greater
than in any other. A defeat would put
us ten years behind.

To-day our flag is floating wei the

pull it down. All the patriotic citizens
of the country are waiting to see
whether it floats there after the next

ties shall be defeated, and on Nov. z
the people of the country, with one
voice, shall sing:
Let the Sta spanagled Banner in triumph
Der the lands we have freed and the peo-
pies we've saved"
The situation has inspired the New
Star Spangled Banner which is as
follows:
Oh S 1asb+ can you see' by the far Eastern
lights last cleaning?
after many a light,
In lands near and far is so gallantly
And the thanks in u prayer, rising high
in the air,
still there; ;A0 "0liO ''"' our nag IS

Oh, thus be it always, whenever we stand
Between the oppressed and a kings des-
olation.
Blest with victory and peace, may the
heaven rescued land
Praise the power that hath made us a
powerful nation.
And onward we must, for our cause is
just;
And this be our motto, I'm God we trust"
Let the Star Spangled Banner in triumph
be waved
Ger the lands we have freed and the peo-

that fact, should anyone doubt it.
This country, with IS, 900 soldiers, or

1t possibly can be. 1t is a ridiculous

Manufacturers Are Preparing to
Protect Themselves.
Manufa >turers and their immediate
customers are beginning to get them
selves in shape for the dull times that
they know would ensue in the event CT
the election of Mr.. Bryan. Reports
from all over the country indicate that
Bryan" clauses are soon to be the
rule in signing new contracts. The
latest is a contract entered into be-
tween the New Haven Carriage COM
pany and the j. Curley company of
Brooklyn. The contract specifies that
the New Haven company shall furnish
the Curley company with a certain
number Of carriages at a certain price
until Nov. Is, 1901. With the contract
received by the Curley company was
the following letter from the New
Haven company:
w enclose herein agreements sign
ed. You will notice hat we have made
an Endorsement at the bottom. Will
you please indorse this yourself? 1t is
just as good policy for you to indorse
it as it is for us, for o do rot wish to
be bound down by anything in case Of
such adverse circumstances as would
occur in the event of Bryan's election"
The Endorsement reads:
"This agreement to be null and void
in case William j. Bryan is elected
president Of the United States in No
vember, 1900"
Other large concerns are indorsing
important contracts in this way, their
managers we'll knowing that a long
season Of business depression would
follow the success of the Democrats
ticket. A large Philadelphia dry goods
house in placing contracts abroad in
sists that the contracts be similarly in
dorsed.
The business men know what four
years of Organism would mean to
them, and the working people are
equally aware Of the fact. If these
classes are not prosperous they will be
unable to consume as much of the
products of the farm as they would in
the event of Republican success, and
the farmer knows the value of having
an era of prosperity among those who
eat and wear his products.
