ana this correspondent says that the tide
has ever since been steadily moving Re-
publicanward.
The reason fer this IS that silver Is no
longer the only money crop OF Colorado.
The pople have turned their attention to
gold mining. and many Of them who for
merly favored the free coinage OF silver
and who regarded such measure as
necessary to the prosperity and develop
ment Of Colorado are now in favor Of the
gold standard.
This is an interesting story as show
Ing how large part self-interest plays
in mans politics. II there had been
no silver mines in Colorado in 1896. II
all her silver mines had been gold mines
the probability Is that the great majority
Of the voters in Colorado would have
voted for the gold standard ticket.

THE NEW CONSTITUTION.

The Constitutional Convention has COM
pleted Its work and the new Constitu-
ton will soon be in full force ana ell
feet. There are those who will complain
but it is impossible to please everybody,
and il everybody liked the new Constitu-
ton and the manner in which 1t was
made the law of tho land, we should
think that the millennium had come. But
the people generally are satisfied, ana
there are few, indeed. who do not pre-
fer the new Constitution to the old.
AS for the members Of the convention
thew have done their work faithfully
and few people On the outside know
what a trial and sacrifice it has been
to them. They have worked for mere
pittance, but no men ever worked hard
er or more unse1fshly than the mem
bers of this convention.
It has been said that every man should
labor SO conscienuously as to make his
work, whatever it be, the expression OF
his character From that point of view
the members of the Constitutional Con-
vention can we'll afford to be judged by
the Constitution, which they have
framed.
