A PleA.ant Occasion.

Among the private celebrations Of
the Fourth Of July in this city last
Monday none we're more enjoyable
than the one held at the ranch of Mr..
and Mrs. H. J Craig. corner of Main
street and Cottonwood avenue. sIn
conformity to an invitation from Mr..
and Mrs. Craig company of fifteen
people from their native town as
sembled at their home and were treated
to 'chowder", such as they used to
have ION the banks OF the Wabash" in
other days. Mr.. Craig, who officiated
in the capacity of cook, prepared n
"chawder", which is a sort of an
American OILS -podrida that would have
ELECTED praise from an epicure, and to
say that the guests enjoyed it is but a
mild way of stating an emphotic fact.
In addition to the "chowder", which
was the chef-d 'oeuvre of the dinner,
there was supplementary bill OF fare
that would have tempted the appetite
of king. The afternoon, or rather
what was left of it after leaving the
dining room. was given over to remi-
niscence OF youthful days in Illinois. 1t
was socially and gastronomically one
of the most enjoyable OF occasions.

Republican Success Assured.

There isn't much doubt about Republican victory
this fall
If the Democrats wise and do the right thing
there question but that up against it good
and hard.
But the Democratic party never known to do the
right thing
1t will not do so this year.
The Republicans won in Colorado in 1902 because Of
bunders and family among Democrats and we ex-
pect the powerful aid this year.
There is contest between the radicals and
servatives for supremacy the Democratic Which
ever wins will be gain.
The radicals will demand much that tinges Of
anarchy and will if in control nominate a liberal
his views that conservative Democrats will support
him.
But the conservatives will probably control the
Democratic convention In this event the radicals will
make such firm and unreasonable demands they will be
turned down and will ensue
So with this Kilkenny Cat fight between Demo-
leaders the Republicans have good prospects of
carrying Colorado.

come of an interesting series OF events.
When Michael Davitt was last in the
United States he saw president Roose-
welt, who mentioned Colonel Lynch,
saying he had once entertained him at
Albany. The president expressed great
interest In the case and regretted that
he could not suggest clemency with
out laying himself open to palpable
snub.
On his return to England, Mr.. Da-
witt mentioned his conversation with
President Roosevelt to Sir Thomas
Upton and to Mrs. Lynch, who has
suffered bitterly since her husbands
arrest. He also made a pathetic ap-
peal to Sir Thomas, who then per.
sonally interceded with King Edward
on behalf of the condemned fellow
Irishman. Without any hesitation, his
majesty promptly informed the home
secretary of his wishes in the matter,
and the prisoner was released
Colonel Lynch, who completed a
year in prison last Saturday, was the
only political onender in prison in Ire
land. ratrich A. McHugh, eX-member
of the house Of commons, who recently
shared this distinction with Colonel
Lynch, was released from Jail through
the mediation of Sir Thomas Upton

having received Inc royal pardon, he
is disqualified from sitting in parlia.
