ing as the self selected mouthpieces
of .sthe better elements Of the repub-
lican party
"Tom" is the chronic leader Of all
opposition to republican rule in Col
orado, and ''Ikey" is his chronic un-
derstudy in that congenial role
Neither of them holds any license
to speak for any element of the re-
publican party, and no intelligent
republican can be fooled by their
joint or several false pretenses in any
matter Of politics
The conspiracy in which they are
most actively engaged at present is
scheme to give the democrats con-
troll of the incoming legislature by
fomenting factional and personal
quarrels among republican senators
and representatives over questions
that can only properly be settled by
a republican Legislative Caucus
We do not think that this knaSery
will win either now or at any time in
the near future. The republican
party of Colorado has suffered too
much in the past from internal dis
sensions caused by personal arbi-
ton and personal spite to try that
method Of suicide in hurry again.
''Get together aud stick together"
is the rule now and any member Of the
party who fails to follow it will incur
the condemnation OF all his fellows
who believe that the will OF the ma
jority should govern.
"Tom l. key" will get the horse
laugh for their pains this time, as
they have got 1t SO often before, un-
less we are very much mistaken

ment is discouraging the production
of gold and intends to hold the coin.
age of that metal down to the lowest
possible figure is nonsense.
The law requires the mints to pur-
chase all the gold of adequate fine
ness that may be offered. The COIN
age of that metal is free and unlim
tied; and if this is not known by the
News, it is because of the ignorance
so prevalent in that Office conceruii z
practically everything Of interest
and value to the people.
So anxious was the government to
encourage the production of gold
that permission was given the assay
Office, commonly called the mint, in
this city to purchase bullion as low
as 300 fine instead OF 800 fine, which
was the STANDARD prior to the issue
OF this order The object Of reduc-
ing the fineness at which gold bull
lion would be accepted was to en-
courage the production of low grade
ores. Notwithstanding the pur-
chase of silver bullion is not author
lied, the government pays for tie
silver contents of gold bullion, thus
still further showing its disposition
to take all the gold that may be of
fered.
The idea that the government
would discourage the production of
gold is absurd on its face. Gold is
the standard money of the CONNER
cisl world, and no country can get
too much of it., Every banker or
other finspcier would avoid as he
would a pestilence anything that
would tend to depreciate the value
Of gold, for practically all securities
are payable in that metal. All such
men recognize that if the govern
ment of the United States were to
refuse to accept gold at its mints,
the tendency would be to depreciate
the value of that metal and hence
reduce the value of securities pay.

would have the effect of depreciatinQ
the value of gold, for the mints OF

Notwithstanding the enormous in J.

Potato Culture.

The following letter written to the
Pueblo Chieftain is in direct contra
diction Of the frequently made state
ment that potatoes will not grow in
this section. A few of our farmers
have made a success of it and the
fancy prices that have prevailed of
late years should make more of them
experiment in this line:
"Dear Sir-I was somewhat anus
ed today on reading your comments
on Arkansas Valley Potatoes" Had
the Chieftain reporter been looking
for something good to report about
Arkansas valley products, he would
have seen at the State Fair, this fall,
potstoes raised in this country, tax
ing the blue ribbon against the bal
ance Of the state.
"There is no doubt or uncertainty
about the raising Of potatoes in this
valley on thousands of acres of the
right kind Of land. This valley con
tains a great variety of soils many of
which are not adapted to potato
culture. The great trouble with
those that have failed has been with
improper selection Of soil, improper
cultivation and irrigation.
'In your article you say that
''there now remains just one ques-
ton to be answered aud that is,
whether the same ground will grow
potatoes more than once. My own
experience is that it will. have
this year raised on l 3 of an acre of
ground $4,000 pounds of potatoes.
This same land raised last year equal
" good potatoes, and has produced
two other crops of potatoes in the
last ten years that it has been in cult
ivation.
"This year I planted for the first
time. potatoes on alfalfa sod and the
result was 225 bushels per acre Of
very fine large potatoes of excellent
flavor. You will undoubtedly be
ready to ask why 1 did not go into
the potato business and supply Pu-
eblo with its spuds. My reply is
my time and attention has been
fully occupied in other business
equally profitable. Many people
that have never been to Greedy think
that the soil'and climate has all to
do with the raising Of potatoes there.
81 think that their intelligent la
Dor and experience of many years in
that line has the more to do with it !"

An UNFORTUNATE GESTURE


"The worst licking 1 ever got in
my life was for throwing my hand
behind me-, said a man from Ken
tucky" and the wonder is that I got
of with my life. I had been hang
ing around little station in Todd
county waiting for train, and be-
ing stranger in that region of the
state, had but little to say to the
men who stood around the depot.
But along about train time medium
sized man approached me and made
remark which I did not quite catch.
What's that I asked rather sharply
and at the same time I threw my
hand behind me and reached down
into my hip pocket. Before I fully
realized it, something was happening
to me, and it was furious and fast
nature. The Kentuckian had simply
crawled all over me. He swept the
depot platform with me almost in a
jiffy. When he let go I was in bad
condition to take the train. My
clothes were covered with dust, my
face was bruised and black, and I
was otherwise in an ugly condition.
Did I try to pull pistol? No, in
deed. I meyer had pistol with me
and had no idea Of getting into any
sort Of trouble at the moment. I
had simply reached into my hip pock-
ct for chew Of tobacco, but the Ken
tuckian evidently thought I was
