THE OUTLOOK
IS BRIGHTER
Better Feeling Prevails Here
abouts Among All Classes.

The average workingman and the
average man in business that you
meet these days is wearing a more
comfortable smile and has a cheerful
word to say than was the case awhile
back.
Perhaps this is partially owing to
the fact that our industries are in bet
ter running order or it might be be-
cause this city is not going through
the strike period as are some others,
and again it may be combination
of both these causes and other happy
things, but whatever it is you can
greet the man on the corner now
with bolder front when you are
pushing things than was the case
short time ago.
About 500 men additional were Sc
cured jobs at the steel works the first
of the week which helped to turn
the tide effectually, and the outlook
being for a steady continuation OF op-
erations it is no wonder that the OPP
timistic turn has come in the tide.
Nobody is trying to boom things,
for nobody believes that it is an op-
portune time for that and yet the
prices of realty keeps up remarkably
well and the speculator who is on the
look out for real snaps is kept guess
ing why it is so.
The fact of the matter is that the
average man and woman in this city
have abiding faith in its future and
never for moment forget that they
can afford to wait for the good times
coming.
Strikes, the general depression that
| is abroad in all the land, the national
campaign approaching which should
| have nothing to do in the case and
vet has so much to do with it. all these
things are but transitory and will pass
| off by and by and then the stayers
will be counted the fortunate ones.
The past history of Pueblo has
amply proven this to be true time
and time again, and the Pueblo that
lis in very fair shape today will be a
lioyous, bowling center of activity to-
morrow

Editor Alleged to Have Expended
$1,4OO,OOO I'm His Campaign.
NEW YORK. July THE World has
the following from St Louis:
wv. r. Hearst's high tide in the con-
vention will show not more than $50
votes, and probably desertions between
now and the voting will lower these
! figures. One hundred and fifty votes
will be the net result of a campaign
expenditure of 81 400, 900 in round num-
berS. Until the time the caravan of
Hearst boomers reached st. Louis the
campaign had cost the Californian
100000 short of the foregoing sum, and
in admitting the heavy outlay Hearst's
friends said that he expected to spend
100000 here. Comparing expenses and
net returns. it will be seen that each
vote in the convention will have cost
Mr.. Hearst about $685.
THE extraordinary cost is attribut-
ed to the fact that Mr.. Hearst is
novice in politics and to the further
fact that his managers and advisers
are for the most part green hands in
the political battlefield. While a con-
gregation of personal friends, newspa-
per employers and mercenaries have
essayed practical politics, considering
money the root of office. they are said
to have signally failed when met by
political wisdom with age on it,
"One instance is pointed out as indi-
eating the supernatural political
knowledge of Hearsts most active
lieutenant. This clever and robust
young man went to see a hard-faced
Tammany leader to arrange things
He said he wanted to arrange a deal
whereby if Tammany would throw its
strength to Hearst in the early ballot
ing, when it became evident that
Hearst could not win, the Hearst forces
would be thrown to a Tammany- can
didate.
Quit your kiddin',' said the tiger
henchman. Don't you know that the
New York delegation is instructed for
Parker, and we are bound by the unit
rule? Wake up, Willie"
The amount of money spent by Mr.
Hearst at the finish will represent ap-
proximately the sum for which he
mOrtgaged his New York newspapers.
How much of this money was actual
ly spent in endeavOring to further the
candidates interests will never be
known. 1t is computed by wise ones
that many hundreds of thousands OF
dollars have not yet been spent at all,
though separated forever from Mr..
Hearst.
1T is said that Hearst has in many
instances been too trusting with his
money and his condolences and that
he has often been given what is
known as the 'dinky dirk

GREED OF CONSERVATIVES IS EMBODIED
IN A LONG DECLARATION OF PRINCIPLES

ST. LOUIS, July THE sub commit
tee of the committee on resolutions
spent the entire day until 5 o'clock in
perfecting the details of the Democratic
platform, concluding at that hour with
the adoption of a gold standard plank.
The plank was voted upon during the
absence Of Bryan and Congressman
Williams and the ballot stood Z to 8.
the affirmative votes being cast by
Daniel Hill, Pattison, Hamlin. Cable,
Poe and Davis and the negative votes
by Dubois, Shively and Newlands. The
understanding was that if Bryan and
Williams had been present they would
nave cast their votes in the negative,
thus bringing the opposition vote to
five. AS agreed upon by the sub-com-
mittee, the text of the platform fol-
lows:

impression is general that in spite of

ballot to pass it will develop enough
votes to nominate.

Picture Saves a Monkey.

How a monkey pursued by a boa
constructor was saved is told by A. L.
w. Goodschalk, United States Consul
at Guayaquil. Ecuador The big rep
tiles have a failing for monkeys and
these agile little pets must keep a con-
slant lookout for them. If Jocko drops
into a doze he is likely to wake up
dead
On the occasion with which the story
deals a monkeys life was saved by
the picture of the american eagle. The
consulate sign all over the world is a
fine reproduction of the king of birds
in full color, with outspread wings A
new sign had just been received and
was waiting on chair inside the
room.
A big boa constructor chased the
house monkey across the yard and
through the open window. Jocko was
making good race, but a losing one.
He was in the corner quaking with
fear and very near to deaths door
when the pursuer confronted the pic
ture Of the eagle in it's menacing atti-
tude. A snake fears eagles even more
than it Graves monkeys and that par
ticular reptile turned tail and went out
of the window as quickly as if the
devil were after it.
That monkey was a smart monkey
and now whenever it wants to take a
nap it goes to roost over the picture of
the eagle.-Chicago Chronicle.
