and they are looking forward to vic.
tory not as a thing to be gained two
years hence. but as something to be
achieved this year and in the present
campaign.
1t Is because the Republican ticket
appeals to the business community OF
the whole state with assurance that
its success means the Inauguration OF
new and better era in the admins
tration of state affairs. The people
are presented with choice of bus
mess administration on the one hand
and OF a government by professional
politicians on the other. The Repub
licans know that the masses of the
people want the former and are weary
of the latter. The Republican ticket
appeals to this sentiment. 1t is an
answer to this demand and hence II
is growing in popularity and strength
every day.
II is this which accounts for the
confidence among active workers o!
the Republican party, driving away
their doubts, strengthening their hope
to the point of assurance and enab
ling them to do ten times more and
better work for the good OF
the cause and the redemption
of the state from the Democratic and
fusion misrule which so odorously
characterized it for the past six years

THE SPIRIT OF THE CAMPAIGN

The Republicans are making this
campaign with new spirit Sure to
win. confident of the result, they are
giving no thought to the possibility
of defeat. Yet they are not rnmind-
ful of the strength of the enemy. The
very fact that they know the enemy
will make hard fight makes them
all the more determined to succeed.
This spirit has recently become
manifest 1t was much less so when
the campaign opened. But since the
nominations were made and Republi'
cans saw the excellent ticket their
convention had put in the field, they
awakened to the splendid opportuni-
ty to redeem the state from the dis
aster of Democratic mlsrule, Conf
dence in victory is growing day by
day among the masses of the party,
and the spirit of the leaders is In
spring rank and file.
There never has been doubt that
this was the Democlacy's last chance.
Republican has felt that whatever
might occur in 1902, the next presi-
dental campaign would end in COM
plete victory for the Republicans.
placing them in complete control of
the state government and enabling
them to cast Colorado's electoral
votes for the Republican candidates
for president and vice president. But
now a new faith has come to them,

DIR. John a. Holmes. chief of the de-

of the Worlds fair, has returned from
an extensive trip which we'll illus

chiefs of exhibit departments are per-

Holmes next attended the National
Mining congress at Butte, Mont, prob

great eXpositions In promoting min

| recommending that a strong effort be
made to have the mining and mineral
