The Democrats of Colorado were
formerly an inappreciable quantity.
The party stood invariably FOR sac

by Pupulism when persons calling
themselves Democrats were fused into

Ing fusion. hut this exhibition OF indc-
p.ndenoe does not indicate that their
con, eniion was dominated 10y the
true and tried veterans who voted for
Tilden in 1876. Evidently something
has stuck from the mixture with Pop

plcbald asscmblage produced one OF
the most amazingly piehald platforms
that has ever emanated from politi'
cal gathering In this country.
Bimetallism is indorsrd In memory
OF 1909 and 1896. and the Republican
party is denounced as the creator OF

heartily endorse the course OF our
Democratic senators and representa-

the people OF this state upon their
