Receipts of cattle thus far this week
are 1890; same time last year 100, 100;
Mondays supply of beef steers was small
and prices ruled steady for best; others
weak to l0c lower. The same condition
applied to grassers. Cows were active
and steady; stockers and feeders steady
to a shade weaker. Receipts today were
$4,000. Choice to prime beeves are
scarce but the market slow and prices
mostly l0c lower, this including both fed
and grass kind. Cows were weak but
generally steady; bulls unchanged; calves
active. Choice stockers and feeders were
steady; others dull and weak to lower.

ALITTLE TOO THIN

Unsigned handbills have been
distributed throughout the state
this week calling the peoples at.
tention to the fact that on
March 2nd, the date set for n
decision by the Legislature Of
the Peabody-Adams contest for
the governorship, a mass meet
ing of 10000 citizens will be
held at the capitol for the purpose
of preventing the Peabody sup
porters seating their man. "The
deal is fixed" according to the
circular, "to unseat Governor
Adams and seat Peabody" and the
question is asked: "Will you per-
nit the purchased politicians to
veto the peoples will?" Some OF
the circulars were distributed in
this community and created much
adverse criticism. One would sup
pose from the tone of the hand
bills that they were being sent out
by the Democracy, which is absol-
utely incorrect. Chairman Milton
Smith of the Democratic state
central committee, disavows re-
sponsibility for the circular and
denounces its issuance. Many are
inclined to think that it is the
work of the Republicans, which is
very likely the case, their object
being to convey the impression
that the Democrats are trying to
stir up strife over the governor
ship and thus reverse public SEN
timent, which has been with the
Democrats throughout the contest,
in favor of the Republicans. The
issuance of such false statement
is something the Democracy is too
sensible to do at this time when
they have practically proven
Adams to have a safe plurality,
which means unqueationably that
he will retain the governors chair,
and anticipating no trouble what
ever over the matter there was no
necessity for the circulating of the
deceiving hand bills.

Ex-Governor Peabody and col
leagues finished their case of ex-
amining the ballots in the wards
where fraud is alleged to have oc-
Cured, yesterday. AS everyone
knows, the investigation was a
farce and while the Peabodyites
claimed to have unearthed fraud,
and furthermore have shown
enough spurious Democratic bal
lots to entitle Peabody to the Of
fee, as they contend, Adams still
has safe plurality. Governor
Adams, through his attorneys,
commenced yesterday to introduce
testimony refuting that presented
by the Peabody side. The Adams
attorneys will again demand that
the seals of all the ballots regard
ed as fraudulent be broken, which
is the only proper and sensible
way of going about it to expose
any fraud which may have occur
red. Then if there are no voters
behind the ballots it is reasonable
to believe that they are illegal and
should then be excluded from the
count. To attempt to show up
fraud through the aid of the So
called handwriting experts" is
laughable. They were hirelings
Of the Peabody supporters and in
fuenced doubtless by plenty of
money, were blind to all honesty
and fairness and consequently "all
ballots looked alike to them"
Some of the ballots claimed to
have been written by the same
hand, looked about as much alike
as the writing of pupil in a
primary grade and that of High
school graduate.

An innovation is planned by tn

An innovation is planned by the
Tramway company of Denver, so
it is announced by the papers of
that city, to instruct a number of
negroes in the handling and run
ming of the cars so that they may
act as motormen. This system, if
adopted, will doubtless meet with
much disapproval with the general
public of the capital. The COM
pany claims their idea in training
the negroes to act as motormen
does not exactly signify that they
propose to put them on steady but
just to have them familiar with the
work SO that in case of an emer-
gency, such as shortage of help
during rush, they will be ready
for immediate service. 1t seems
that with all the idle men in Den
yer the Tramway people could
manage to get sufficient white help
without hiring negroes. The dusky
individuals for the present are to
be confined solely to the front plat
form of the car, but there is no
question but that if they are salts

men and the company can get them
to work for a lower wage than a

Why Not See Mexico.

Forty eight hours travel will take you
from the cold clustering northern winter
to land OF sunshine and flowers. What
Egypt and India are to the old world
Mexico is to the new. "a land OF sun,
shine, redolent with flowers; land OF
gay costumes, crumbling churches, and
old convents; land OF kindly greetings,
OF extreme courtesy, Of open broad hos
pitaiity. 1t was more than enough to
revel in an Italian sun, lighting up a
semi tropical land; to look up to white
capped peaks, towering into blue; to
look down upon wind swept plains en-
circled by ragged chains OF mountains;
ana to realize that today, in its varied
scenery, costumes, architecture, street life
canals crowded with fiower.la boats,
market plazas thronged with gayly
dressed natives, faded church interiors,
and abandoned, converts, Mexico is the
most marvelously picturesque country
under the sun. A tropical Nenice, a
semi barbarous Spain, new Holy
Land" For rates and information

It has been noised about the
streets lately that the Law and Or
der League intends to launch a
ticket in the municipal campaign.
The Observer, being more or less
interested in the politics of the
city, asked a prominent church
member if such was the case, and
he said the League had thought
nothing whatever about the mat
ter. 1t is probable that the church
element, instead of nominating a
ticket of their own will wait until
after the Democrats and Republi-
cans have held their conventions,
and will then endorse the men of
either party whom they think will
best serve their interests.

ANENT THE KNOCKER.

An eastern correspondent who
has invested a large sum of money
in this district, writes an Idaho
Springs mining man that while at
tempting to interest capital with
him in his enterprises, was aston
ished to discover that the would-be
investor had received a letter from
an Idaho Springs citizen in which
the mining proposition was roasted
to brown and the entire camp
given a black eye. 1t is just such
knocks as these that ever retard
the natural growth of any camp.
1t is deplorable that any commu-
nifty should be cursed with such an
element. The property referred to
in this last target of the hammer
thrower enjoys record production
OF many thousands of dollars and
is considered one of the best propo-
sitions in the district. When asked
for information in regard to the
properties it is always safe to do
one of three things-boost, ac-
knowledge your ignorance of the
property, or refer the matter to the
officers of the company-but never
knock.-Idaho Springs Siftings.
This county to large extent is
confronted with the same condi-
tions. There are people here who
seem to take special delight in
saying things detrimental to the
camp, instead of attempting to
help it. What their reason is for
SO doing is not known, but there
should be some means devised for
stopping their incessant 'knock-
ing" Instances have been called
to the attention of the writer where
people upon hearing of some ones
intention of investing in a piece Of
property, would go to the pros
pective purchaser and tell him that
the mine he had in view didn't
contain enough gold to fill an or.
dinary cavity in a decayed tooth,
but that they had something over
on another hill that was simply a
bonanza. By the time two or three
other such "knockers'' would give
the stranger the same kind of a
spell he would become thoroughly
disgusted with the community.
and the result was, that he looked
elsewhere for investments.

1t is stated by reliable authority
that the local opera house will be
closed for the remainder of the
season after the two shows which
are booked for this week and next
make their appearance. The rea-
son for this is on account of the
fact that the present management
has been losing money. The ma
jority of the shows which have
visited this city have been very
poorly attended, and on two or
three occasions only, has sufficient
money been taken in to pay the
running expenses Of the house.
This condition can be attributed
to two or three causes, the first
being that too many attractions
have been brought here in a short
space of time, and the people not
being financially able to attend
them all. From one to three shows
week is too much for town of
this size, and consequently none
Of them were given sufficient pa
tronage, even though they did de-
serve it. Then again some of the
bookings were very poor and
wouldn't take in n city like this,
which is situated so close to Den
yer, where the people are in the
Labit of going and seeing first-class
attractions for the same price. We
have had some very good compa-
MICS here-three or four-and their
performances were well attended,
but some of the melo-dramas for
get it. After witnessing them n
fellow would go home and have
series of Nightmares. About two
up-to.date engagements month,
doubtless, would pay here, but from
four to six is little too strong for
the purses of the tbeatre-goers at
this time.

According to an item published
in one of the Denver papers last
Saturday, w. L. Thorndyke, the
man who always opened the ed
itorial column of the Loveland Re
porter with prayer, has sold his
paper to Mr.. Frank McMeekin
of Canon City. We are inclined
to doubt the report as nothing APP
peared in last weeks issue of the
Reporter regarding the change,
and besides if the religious editor
of the paper had contemplated the
sale, which is claimed to have been
made Saturday, the event would
have been marked with a script
ural quotation, Characteristic OF
Mr.. Thorndyke's custom, and also
an extended and somewhat solemn
benediction. The retiring editor
had published the Reporter fol-
twelve years, and during that time
the paper had become one of the
best known weeklies in the state,
owing to the original manner in
which the writer had of saving
things. His retirement from the
journalistic field is regretted.

The adoption Of this new trade mark
