The Presidents Letter.

President Rooseyelt's Letter of Accept
aucc is much more than letter. IT is a
ringing campaign document He picks
up Democracy by the scuff of the neck
and shakes ii as wolf hound shakes a
coyote.
He tells Democrats that the only way
they can make an argument Of the ad-
ulinistrstion and its work is to misstate
the facts ard then base their criticisms on
their own miss,atcrnents. Aud he proves
the truth Of his words.
ON the Istbmus business. on the tariff.
on the army and navy. on the manage
mcnt Of foreign affairs. on the Philippine
question. his statements are clear and
distinct. he declares that he has every
where obeyed the Constitution in both
letter and spirit aud points out that the
Constitution is not negative but posi-
tive instrument; that no President can
evade its positive commands, or its in-
piled commands and under cover OF un
certainty evade his clear duty.
He says he shall keep right along as he
has been doing. always striving for the
right and for peace. but peace with justice.
He asks no favors. nothing but fair esti-
mate of what he has done and is doing,
pointing in the meanwhile to his record
as a certificate of character and letter of
recommendation for further employment
In more than one place he huris a shaft
f..l ID. =. H.
aud with cutting force refers to Judge
Parker's plea TO he trusted, because Con-
gress will be 50 constituted for three or
four years that any change that can be
wrought will not hurt very much. But
the letter itself, brave and strong and in
eisive as it is. does not equal the high
tone in which IT Is written, The genuine
Americanism tha; shines out between its
lines is the chiefes, charm OF it. II makes
a picture OF the man who wrote it. alert.
strong, confident and brave and We, bound
with triple chain Of duty and intent
only upon compelling justice from all
behcsts.
If the American people are what he
thinks they are. people brave enough to
do any rightful thing. but still nation
that loves peace with justice. when they
have read this letter and assinilated il.
there will not be much doubt about the
result of the election.
We do not see how the brave men of
the Southern States can read that letter
and still hold their section solid for what
the Democratic party could do for them,

THE persistent sntsgonistic attitude OF
the Mining Investor toward the Big Five

obnoxious to the people Of this mining

The Eight Hour Question,

The Democratic speakers and editors
in Colorado have had much to saw about
the alleged opposition of the Republican
party to an eight hour law. This criti-
cism is very interesting as illustrating the
practice of the Democratic leaders in inn.
p-ovising false issues to divert attention
+ ON real issues upon which they are
weak
In order to make an issue of the eight.
hour question, it was necessary for the
Democratic leaders to first missta,e the
fact as to the Republican attitude upon
this question.
Thus they are now found lashing them.
selves into a fury Of denunciation over a
Republican policy that does not exist and
never has existed.
The Republican party in the nation is
in favor Of the eight-hour principle and
has applied il among government en-
ployes- President Roosevelt approved an
eight-hour law while governor Of New
York.

we indorse and approve the admins
tration of Gov James II. Peabody We
urge all good citizens without regard 10

tions, to join Us in supporting him for re-
election; thus sterrily rebuking the spirit
OF lawlessness which would turn popular
government into irresponsible despotisui
and through unprincipled agitators, keep
alive the FIRE of class hatred, la~flessness
aud treason. We affirm the right Of every
person. whether union or non-unioD, 10
labor when. where and for whom be
pleases, aud to enter freely into whatever
contract he may choose. We recognize
the right Of both capital and labor to
combine into associations and organize
into unions for the accomplishment OF
lawful objects by lawful methods We
deny the right Of either to exceed such
bounds.

COLORADO democrats seem to be un-
able to get away from the Adams family
in chosing leaders and for the steenth
time Friend Alva. OF Pueblo, has been
made the political Moses to rescue the
party from the slough of despair wherein
it had become lost in an endeavor to find
a candidate for governor who would allow
himself to become the plastic tool of
Messrs. Meyer and Haywood as against
Governor Peabody, law and order and
the best business interests in the state.
And that moment when Alva blushingly
accepted the honor ~, his senatorial
hopes went glimmering, as the party
leaders thereby paid pledge and releas d
themselves from unpleasant obligations
to the Pueblo banker and hardware mer-
chant. His defeat in November will
place his political ambitions 20 far in

-Four years ago the Republican party in
this state urged the adoption of consti-
tutional amendment, authorizing law for
an eight hour day for men working in
mines and in connection with furnaces
and snlel,ers.
Two years ago the platform urged all
Republicans TO vote for the constitutional
amendment and il was adopted BY Repnb-
licaa votes.
In the last assembly, the Stephen bill
drawn up by the State Federation Of Labor
received the support OF every Republican
III the House and was killed in the con-
ference committee By the Democratic
senate. which Withdrew its members OF
the conference committee at the last mo-
tnent before the House adjourned at the
close Of the session.
The platform adopted by the Republi-
can convention last week advocates the
enactment OF a fair. jus, and equitable
eisht-hour law.
But still the Democratic leaders tell
their followers that the Republicans OPP
pose an eight-hour law. They seem to
think that they can by picking out some
principle for which the Republican party
stands. and by the simple process OF say
ing that If does not stand for il. work up
a red hot campaign issue
The eight-hour question in Colorado is
not political issue. 1t is entirely non-
partisan matter The difference in the
attitude of the Republican and Demo
cratic parties on the question is best indi-
Gated By the fact that the Republican
House tried to pass such Law and the
Democratic Senate prevented its passage,

THE extension Of the steam heating
system TO accommodate the increased
demand Is an evidence Of progressiveness
81 which Idaho Springs may be proud.
There are few if any cities in the inter
mountain region that can boast Of a
stcam-heating plant OF the proportions
that We have and the patronage that is
given it denotes the progressive spirit of
our citizenship. The foresight OF the
Consolidated Gem management in install
ling plant to meet the demands OF an
ever growing population shows a rare
wisdom. and while at the present time
the plant IS capable of supplying the
wants of largely increased population.
still the present demands indicate that in
another year the resources will be none
too large. The convenience of steam
heat is apparent and property owners are
fast realizisg that it is to their interest to
install it. To-day there are but few places
of business of a permanent nature but
what have the improvement either install
led or under contract. and there is con-
slant demand for it among the owners OF
private residences.

Our Consre.sm.n at LARGE.

1t IS rare that member of the Naiioual
House Of Representatives makes much
impression in his first term. 1t generally
takes him most Of il to LEARN the ropes, -
and seldom can he get good enough
place on committees TO do very much for
his constituents. That Mr.. Franklin L.
Brooks of this state has been a nstable
exception TO the rule IS proved no, only
by the testimony of leaders cf his party,
and by the reluctant admission won rom
Senator Patterson, but also by very con-
crete examples of what his energy and
persistency have enabled him to do for
his people.
That Mr.. Brooks has been a real con-
gressman-ai large-a representative for
the whole state. was strikingly and
abundantly proved in the late convention,
when delegate after delegate. in all parts
of the house and from all sections OF The
state rose and seconded his nomination.
One did ii I'm the interest of the agricul-
turis,s, one did it 'in the interest OF the
miners. " another in the interest OF the
Arkansas valley" still another ''in the
interest Of the agricultural college at Fort
Collins so on, from every par; of
state and from every class of its citizens
This Was a tribute to the worth and the
work OF Mr.. Brooks that was as rare in
conventions as it mus, have been pleasing
to him. He is erninentiy case in which
'one good term deserves another"
