WATCHING WITH INTEREST.

The Times man found, on his
visit to Grand Junction and Denver
last week, that mining. railroad and
business men generally, are watch-
ing with keen interest develop
ments in the LaSal District. 1t is
not the easiest place in the world
to reach and many have hesitated
in making visit because of not
hearing sufficient news from it. We
carried out about 100 pounds OF
samples of LaSal ore and it ans
swered for itself many questions
regarding what the district had to
show and what may be expected
with development work. 1t was a
surprise to many that with so good
a showing to go on that a higher
degree Of development had not
been reached. We were assured by
a number of influential men that
they would visit the district soon
or send in representatives with a
view Of taking a practical hand in
the development of its resources.
We learn that schemers have
been at work on the outside on the
strength Of the reports from the
district and some men who have
bit and "gone it blind" on grub>
stakes are wondering what has be-
come Of their money and are to
condemn the whole district as a
fake. Every new district has such
to contend with and every man in-
terested in the district should do
all in his power to expose that class
OF fakirs. Such unfortunate ven>
lures as the Huntsman company

THEY KNOW HIN NOW.


Four years ago when Mr.. Bryan
was nominated for the presidency
he was comparatively an unknown
man. His reputation had not ex>
tended eastward beyond the Mis-
sissippi, and great popular doubt
existed in the states east Of the Al
leghenies as to his fitness for the
presidential office and his quaifca>
tions to become the chief execu>
tive of the republic. He was rep
resented as a superficial demagogue,
an unfit, unsafe, inexperienced man
who was possessed Of anarchistic
ideas and who would turn the gov>
ernment upside down were he per-
mitted to enter the White House.
That a change has come over
popular opinion is evident to the
most casual observer. 1t is em
phasized by the remarks of Chi
cago sub>treasury official who in>
formed a reporter on Friday last
that the shipments of standard sil>
yer dollars to the west and north
west now averaged $4,000 a day.
"They are clamoring for the white
metal" he said, mot for the cur
rency." And then he added: ut
was not so four years ago. At that
time there was line OF people in
front of the tellers' windows from
opening to closing, all demanding
gold coin. Four years ago the
people were frightened and were
boarding gold. Now they feel se>
cure and do not want it. l see no
reason tor a scare in the Wall street
market. We can see nothing here
that looks alarming"
This is practical indication Of
the changed conditions of public
sentiment, and the reason therefor
is not difficult to find. Since 1896
Mr.. Bryan has visited every section
of the country. il not every state Of
the union. He has been seen and
heard by the people, and they
know him now as safe, sound,
conservative statesman, who has
the best interests Of the country at
heart, and who is in every way
capable and competent to fill the
presidential office. All apprehen>
sion has been dissipated and the
effects thereof are visible at the
tellers' windows of the Chicago
sub>treasury. - Rocky Mountain

the election keeps new buying in many
lines down to wants for immediate con-

much confidence. Prices of commodi-

speculation at minimum. Cotton fur.

Sc bale in two weeks. Planters are
rushing work and picking is expected
to progress rapidly enough to save

High prices make it possible to pay
good wages to pickers and the move
ment at receiving points increases
largely Domestic spinners are not
liberal buyers but exports are only
slightly smaller than year ago.

Few fluctuations occurred in iron and

Leather and hides are steady and sell

an effort is made to keep these sales
as quiet as possible, owing to the eff

While wooden mills are not working
