The dirtiest, vilest, most unglentle-
manly and indecent attack ever made
upon member Of the clergy Of Denver.
or in few il any other cities OF this coun-
try, appeared in last weeks issue Of
Clay's Review under the caption, "Rev.
Pinkham as an Anarchist and as an
ASS" Reverend Pinkham it will be re-
membered denounced Governor Pea
body from his pulpit in Denver two
weeks ago, declaring his policy "absol-
utely lawless," and it is upon the in
stance OF this arraignment that the
paper has seen ct to abuse the minister
in such mean and shameful manner.
Clay's Review is supporting Peabody
for reelection and copies of the paper
containing the article spoken OF were
distributed free to the residents OF Dem
YER last week. The idea OF Distributing
the paper, doubtless, was to give the
number general circulation with the
intention that the item regarding Rev.
Pinkham should be widely read, and
serve as refutation OF the minister,s
announcement OF the governor. II the
Republican party think they can create
sentiment and win votes by publiahin0
such scurrilous attack upon reverend
gentleman who has dared to say from
his pulpit what many others Of the
ministerial profession will likely say be.
fore the campaign is over, they are sadly
mistaken. No voter. regardless OF party
affiliations, would sanction the printing
OF the slanderous attack which appeared
in Clays Review, upon a minister of the
gospel.

DEMOCRATIC TICKET.

The Democratic state ticket nomin-
Ated by the convention held in Denver
last week is entirely satisfactory to the
party; also to countless Republicans who
are sick and tired OF the present admin.
istration and wanted men placed in
nomination who, when elected, would
restore law and order. The ticket
throughout is an exceptionally strong
one from the head down. Most OF the
nominees have filled the positions 10
which they aspire before and their fit
hess and ability can not be questioned.
Alva Adams was governor OF Colorado
for two terms and filled the executives
chair in clean, conscientious and cap.
able manner. Under his administra.
tions the state was prosperous and free
from labor disturbances OF any kind.
He has been a successful business man
In Pueblo for many years and is held
in high esteem by his acquaintance
and business associates 10 that city. He
is popular with all classes in the state;
is a friend OF the laboring man and en-
ployer alike, and with the population OF
the farming communities OF Colorado is
recognized as man who has made and
will make safe and judicious governor.
Miss Helen Grenfell candidate for
superintendent OF public instruction, is
a woman who needs no introduction to
the voters Of this county. She is the
present incumbent Of the Office to
which she seeks re election and has
filed the position with credit to herself
and constituency for two terms Mrs.
Grenfell came to Central City in 1863
with her parents. She was raised here
and her early education was received in
the public schools OF this city. Her
education was completed In tie New
York State Normal school, she having
graduated from that institution with

A warm time is anticipated by the
Repu ublicans at the senatorial conven.
tion in Golden Saturday. 8. v. Newell
who captured the delegation to the
state convention. which will also repres-
ent this county at the senatorial conven-
tion, is booked to receive a thorough
double-crossing. He is an aspirant for
the nomination for senatorship. Boulder
county has candidate and that county
has delegation Of thirty five. Gilpin,
Clear Creek and Jefferson counties have
a total vote Of forty, 30 Boulder only
lacks three OF having a sufficient num-
ber to nominate. and here is where the
gentleman with gubernatorial aspira-
tions and senatorial ambitions 10 reserve
to fall back on, is going to be whip
sawed to fare you we'll. 1t Is certain
that Newell with all his domineering
qualities cannot hold the entire Gilpin
delegation in line for himself and in case
he should succeed In that endeavor,
Clear Creek or Jefferson would go to
the rescue of Boulder. 1t is possible
that deadlock may be effected. Clear
Creek and Jefferson are in favor OF w.
c. Matthews Of this city for the nomin.
alton and it is probable that the Gilpin
delegation rather than lose the day will
compromise on his nomination and thus
prevent the Boulder man being named.
In any event Newells chances are very
slim as the rank and file OF the Republi.
can party OF this district are opposed to
Wolcott man receiving the slightest
consideration for any Office and his sena.
torial, like the guber Material boom, will
fall with dull and sickening thud.
Several OF the anti Wolcotts, though not
members OF the delegation, will attend
the convention from this county to
witness what they claim promises to be
one OF the hardest throw.downs ever
given politician nursing desire to sit
in the state senate.
Gilpin observer., 1904-09-29

The Gilpin county delegation to the
state convention last week did not sue
ceed entirely in following out their in
structions from the county convention
but the Democrats OF this section may
rest assured that their representatives
were in evidence. There was more en-
thusiasm displayed when the Gilpin dele.
cation proposed the name Of its candi-
date for superintendent Of public in
struction than at any other time.

II hope he will be overwhelmingly dc.
feated and that his downfall will mark

high honors. Before being elected to
the state position she now holds, Mrs.
Grenfell served as superintendent of the
schools of Gi!pin county for two terms
in highly satisfactory manner.
Horace w. Havens is another candi-
date who is quite we'll known to the
residents of this community. For sew
eral years past Mr.. Havens has been
member of company Of mining men
who have interests in this section. He
has been operating property in the vicin-
ity OF Mountain City and at present has
force of men at work. Like his fellow
candidates he has had unlimited exper-
ience in the office to which he will
doubtless be elected-secretary OF state.
During the terms OF Secretaries OF State
Whipple and Beckwith, Mr.. Havens
acted as deputy secretary of state, and
during Orman's administration was the
governors private secretary. He is
familiar with every detail OF the work
which he will be called upon to execute
in case of his election, and therefore
is more able to fill the position than
the nominee of the opposition.
Joseph M. Sampliner who was nom
mated for the position Of state treasurer
by the Democratic party, is widely ac-
quainted throughout Colorado. He has
been a resident and a successful busi-
ness man of Grand junction for the
past ten years. Prior to his moving to
that city he was engaged in business in
several of the mining camps of the
Western Slope. He has always been a
staunch Democrat and has been elected
twice by his party to the mayoralty of
the Peach City" He is popular with
all who know him and enjoys the con-
fidence and respect of his innumerable
|
Democratic admirers. Mr.. Sampliner
has made splendid mayor and is thor
oughly capable Of attending to the
duties of the treasurer's office in man.
ner which will command equal praise
from those responsible for his election.
The remainder of the ticket is CON-
posed of men whose qualifications for
filing their respective Offices will
vie with those Of the nominees above
mentioned. Every candidate can be de-
pended upon to do his or her duty
honestly and conscientiously and their
administrations will rebound credit to
the Democratic party. sag ~S b.

A STRONG CANDIDATE.

The candidacy of John G. McShane
for the position of senator to represent
the 26th district has met with favor
among the residents of Gilpin, Clear
Creek, Jefferson aud Boulder counties.
His nomination at the convention in
Golden Saturday was by acclamation.
Mr.. McShane was by no means an as
pirant for the nomination and when the
honor was thrust upon him, in his
speech Of acceptance he said he really
was not in position for divers reasons
to make the race, but since the Demo-
Gratis were so persistent in naming him
he felt it a duty he owed the party to
run. He spoke of a trip east he was
contemplating which would take him
away during part of the campaign
when he considered it very essential
that he be in the district. Ths delega
tions from each of the four counties as
sured him he need not let the nomina-
ton interfere with his eastern visit;
that as far as campaigning was con-
cerned very little was necessary as his
election from present indications was a
certainty. Two years ago Mr.. McShane
made the race for the same Office. He
was defeated in the district owing to an
unusually large Republican vote being
cast in Boulder county at that election.
| In his home county he made splendid
run, beating his opponent by upwards of
400 votes. He also carried Clear Creek
county by an overwhelming majority OF
6OO In Jefferson he ran with the ticket
AID made very close race. His election
this year seems an assurance.
Mr.. McShane is highly esteemed in
this community where he has resided
for over forty years. He has been en-
gagged in business here the major por-
ton of that time and has been oremost
in advancing the interests OF this Sec
ton. He is a public spirited man, a
first-class citizen and has friends in
numbers. The laboring class are we'll
satisfied with his nomination and are
as unit in admitting that they will re-
pea: their actions OF two years ago in
lending their undivided support in be-
half OF his election.

AN APPEAL.

A circular letter is being sent to the
mine owners and operators OF Gilpin
and Clear Creek counties by r. S. Bill
ings, assistant general manager of the
Independent Smelling & Refining COM
pany of Golden, asking their assistance
in combating the war waged against
that enterprise by the smelter trust
The prices charged by the trust for, the
treatment Of ore since the Golden smell
ter closed down have been exorbitant,
and since the Golden outfit have iecid-
ed to resume operations and have made
good rate to the two counties above
mentioned for smelling ores, the all-hog
combination has started a movement to
force the Golden people out Of the field
by making the ore shippers a ridiculous
ly low rate. AS soon as the combine
has succeeded in forcing the small
smelter to suspend operations, their
former high prices will prevail. The
low rates inaugurated in Gilpin and
Clear Creek counties by the trust only
apply to such ores as are handled by the
Golden smelter, so it can easily be seen
what the object OF the smelter trust is
in reducing the rate on just the ores
their competitors require and can smelt.
1t is imperative to the mining interests
of this section that the smelter at Gold
en- reopen and continue operations, and
in lieu of this the mine owners and
operators should assist all they can in
this fight by supporting the Golden en-
terprise. The following is a part of the
letter referred to, appealing to the min
ing men of Gilpin and Clear Creek
counties, which is being sent out by Mr.
Billings:
LAS we arp comparatively small con-
cern, with no accumulated profits ac
quired by large smelling margins, we
have decided that it is only good bust
ness policy for us to inform the miners
and ore producers of this state, that we
will continue to quote our own moder
ate smelling rates for 800 tons Of ore pei
day for every day in the year. y. ~.
"However, we feel that it is up to the
ore producers, particularly of Gilpin and
Clear Creek counties, as to whether we
shall receive their ores and operate a
competitive smelling plant on the smelt-
ing charges inaugurated by w., or
whether. by your accepting tho Stsnpot.
ary reduced smelling rates offered by
our competitors to divert the tonnases
from us, we shall be hampered in start
ing up Our tuEnaeeas and later, possibly
driven out Of business. when the old
smelling charges will be at once resumed
and imposed upon you.
"This ia plain, simple statement Ioi
the case, free from many interesting de-
tails we might recite. -, IL
I'VE frankly ask your support and SOL
icit your ore shipments, promising you
permanent and uniformly low living
smelling rates, prompt and satisfactory
settlements and courteous treatment"
