GRAND LABOR DAY
PARADE IN DENVER

Denver. Sept. S.-The Labor Day pa
ra,le Yesterday morning was the larg-
est that Denver has seen in many days
and there were nearly 1000 men in
line. The uniforms of the men were
particularly noticeable, most of the un-
ions making special effort to appear at
their best. There was more care taken
in this respect this year than ever be-
fore. The parade was little late IN
starting, but once started there were
no bitches. The men for most part
marched four abreast and it took more
than an hour for the parade to pass
given point.
The banner for the best appearing
union was awarded to the Painters and
Decorators This banner is given by
the Daniels & Fisher Stores Company.
The silk banner for second prize. pre-
sented by John f. Miller. was awarded
TO the Plasterers Union. The judges,
Hugh Coyle, T ]. Foote and Frank }.
Cavanaugh, gave special mention to
the Typographical Union, the Allied
Printing Trades, Carpenters and Join
ers. Tile Settlers, Job Pressmen, The
atrical Union, Bill Posters. Boiler
Makers, Book Binders, Blacksmiths,
Brewers, Stationary Engineers. Stone
cutters, Plumbers, Lathers. Electrical
Workers, Building Laborers' Union,
Stone and Granite Cutters. Steam Fit
ters, Butchers, Tailors. Horseshoers.
Machinists, Roofers, Retail Clerks and
Mattress Makers.
AL! of the unions made good appear
ances and altogether the parade was
the best that Denver has ever seen.
There were many features in the pa
rada amonP them being the little boys
drawing the wagon with diminutive
boiler just ahead of the boiler makers
The painters and decorators arrayed in
white clothes made a distinctive hit
with the throngs along the sidewalks
and well deserved the award OF the
first prize for appearance and general
demanor. The electrical workers were
out in khaki, and there were scores OF
other features.

sEFRiENrINe THE INSANE.
Philanthropy That Reaches the Most
Unfortunate Class of All.

One of the most praiscworthy ben
evolent organizations in the country
is the international Guild for the Ben
eft of the. Insane, OF which Dr. Bertha
A. Resented, 162 West Ninety-ninth
street. New York city, is president.
The members OF the guid are men
and women whose object is the i'm.
provement of methods -J the care of
the insane. both poor and rICh.
In an interview published in the
New York Tribune. DR.. Rosenfeld out
lines the scope OF the work:
1--WE intend to issue quarterly
magazine for distribution among the
public. SO that the laity may become
better informed on the subject of in
sanity, learning something OF its diff
ferent forms, the differ'ur modes of
treatment demanded and such general
knowledge as may help to ii wiser pub.
lie sentiment. We propose, also, to
try to influence Legislation regarding
the conduct of hospital for the in
sane. In the one matter ul cOrrespon-
dence, for instance. thCr' is a great
necessity for Legislative IntC rference.
The best authorities agree that the
fewer the restrictions the better in
dealing with the mentally unbalanced
Yet there is hardly hospital in the
country where the letters of the pa.
tients, sent and received. are not read
and, If thought desirable. destroyed
The knowledge that such is the case
is a constant irritant TO the man or
woman whose mental disorder is large
ly matter of nerve weakness, and
may actually prevent restoration OF
balance. The mere fact OF being able
to express ones self fully and unre-
STRANGELY to a friend often soothes
the mind as nothing else can, and the
helpless patient in hospital should
not be debarred from the privilege.
Even II 1t We're complaint, it would
not injure the hospital that is properly
conducted and can bear Investigation.
"All the trouble is not with the in
sane poor. as many rich patients suf-
fer as needless and Irritating restric-
tions. and lose the chance of restora-
tion because they are not properly
treated. T have positive knowledge
that a member of rich family of this
city. who is in private hospital at
some distance. is tied to her bed night
after night without any real necessity.
| should like to say to her sister, who
not long ago gave $1,000 to a fashion
able charity: Spend less money on
your sisters clothes and get trained
nurse for her. Then she may re.
cover
1T is for work among the poor
however" said DR.. Resented, that we
want to interest people. The insane
are so helpless and so neglecto d. The
city and state try to care for them
but those great official charities must
necessarily leave much undone, and
they need to be supplemented by pri
vate benevolence."

CRIPPLE CREEK
TUNNEL OPENED

Cripple Creek, Colo, Sept. 6.-The
main feature of to-day's strike situa-
ton was the final completion of the
El Paso tunnel. At exactly three min
utes after il O'Clock this morning Wa
ter began to flow from the mouth of
the Big -Four. Half an hour previous
the great whistle on the FL Paso be-
gan to blow and it could be heard in
nearly every portion of the camp, and
many other mines helped to swell out
the noise.
There were probably fifty people at
the mouth of the tunnel, including two
armed Ell Paso mine guards. when the
water began to flow through the con-
duits. A large mass of debris of every
description came out ahead of the
stream. The water was very muddy,
and it was estimated by the engineers
that the flow amounted to 1000 gal
Ions a minute. This soon found its
way to Cripple creek, and it soon
swelled that modest little stream to a
fair-sized river. Only one bulkhead
has been taken out, and that IS at the
El Paso shaft. which is 4.760 feet from
the mouth of the tunnel. The breast
of the tunnel, however, is now $3.50
feet, or nearly one mile from the
mouth. If all avenues of escape for the
that some damage would be done to
the tunnel. 1t will be slowly regulated
and increased.
The drainage tunnel required about
seven months work. and when the
strike was declared a few weeks ago,
nearly all the men employed on 1t quit
work. 1t was then nearly completed.
The mine owners determined to finish
the work with non-union men and then
employed fifteen or twenty armed
guards to protect both the Ell Paso
mine shaft house as well as the drain
age tunnel. and at headquarters to-
night they are very jubilapt over COM
pletion of the work. This tunnel will
be used exclusively as drainage tun
mel and 1t will unwater most OF the
mines situated on Beacon. Raven and
Gold hills. The money was subscribed
for the work by such corporations as
the El Paso Consolidated, C. X. and

Denver, Sept. S-The Democratic

succeed Justice John Campbell, whose

The following platform was adopted
THE Democracy of Colorado. in con-
vention assembled, reaffirms its alle-
glance TO the principles enunciated by
the last national Democratic conven-
tion. held in Kansas City.
THE Democratic party is a party OF
law and order 1t believes in the su-
premacy of the law. and in its strict
and impartial enforcement. that the
rights Of all be equally respected and
that justice be meted out alike to all
offenders, whether they be individuals
or corporations, the friendless poor
man or the financial magnate. There
should be no compromise with lawless-
ness, come from what source it may.
Upon this depends the good order and
well being of society, the safety of our
homes, the security of person and prop
erty, business prosperity and the full
enjoyment by the people of the privi-
lcges guaranto oed by federal and state
constitutions.
Entertaining these views. we hold
that the judiciary Is the most import
ant of all departments of the govern
ment, and that the Office of supreme
judge is tile highest within the gift of
the people of the state.

Victor. Colo, Sept. 6.-The first
Sunday in camp in Goldfeld has been
an uneventful one. The only feature
of interest was the arrival of the cav
airy troop from Meeker. A scat
tering of other arms who were un-
avoidably absent when their COM
mands left their respective stations re-
ported for duty.
The Meeker troop, officially desig-
mated Troop d. is composed almost
entirely of cowboys The troop is
thirty-eight strong and is a fine look
ing body of men. They brought along
their own mounts and they have been
well selected for hard and fast riding.
The troop is in command of Captain
George +. Grier, Ii. E. Aicher being
first lieutenant and Ambrose Oldham
second Lieutenant. The detail arrived
by special train over the Terminal and
reached camp at about 3 a. m.
The full strength of the command is
now about 900 men. This morning S
