THE TWO SHOWS.

Denver. Monday, June 10.
The Floto Snow and the Patterson
show reached Denver the same day.
Post, which owns the Floto show, is
that the latter is organized to amuse
the people, while Patterson's show is
organized to fool the people.
Whatever the resolutions may de-
clare there is a surprising unanimity
of opinion among the Democratic
leaders now in the city on the point
OF municipal ownership being very
weak paramount issue in this state.
Boss Speer VINO seems now to have
a fair show of keeping Patterson on
back pew in the organization, does
not believe it is time to put up fight
Tor municipal ownership. for the good
reason that there is no demand for it
in Colorado He tells the country
members. You always have kicked
about Denver running the whole
thing. If 1t is wrong for Denver to
lead the state organization. II must
he bad policy for you fellows to come
up here aud undertake to force local
issue on us Denver people" And ne
has a good argument. The average
member from outside has no appetite
for butting into Denver olitics, es-
pecially upon local issues which do
not affect the state at large.
The speeches and resolutions bear
ing upon the policy of the party in
This state are going to fall very fiat
so far as the public is concerned
This feeling Is evidenced by the com
ments of the outsiders. There is alb
solutely nothing to keep alive any in
terest in anything the speakers may
say or in any resolutions the extra
session may pass.
Having no new issues to offer, with
nothing in the constructive or pro
gressive line in the old issues reiter
ated. il will be utterly impossible tc
sustain public interest in the doings
of the session" beyond a few days
and tne first issue of the Democratic
country weeklies after the thing II
over For this reason Boss Speei
deems the whole thing an extremel,
unfortunate performance for Dem
ocracy. He is reported to have sale
last night;
This foolishness is the limit. Pat
terson never was practical man II
politics It seems impossible for hin
TO see that public sentiment at THU
time is for peace from all active pc
litical Disc ssion and contention Inv
reaction Is sure to be to the disad
vantage Of the party"
The break between Spser and Pat

, terson was never so clearly defined
as it is now. Patterson denounces
Speer in his editorials and the Demo
cratic city and county committee
which is controlled by Speer, de
nounces Patterson's municipal owner
ship scheme as untimely and foolish
Patterson is not willing that local is
sues SHOULD come by natural process
He proposes to manufacture them and
force the Democratic party to follow.
This is not Speer's style and the fight
will continue between these two ele-
ments until one or the other is com.
pletely exhausted and under the
ropes
Charles S Thomas is the clown of
ably funny and sees joke at longer
range than any of his colleagues. He
appreciated fully the humor of the
situation and gave vent to an unusual
ly amusing assortment of witticisms
at mis- speech at the Democratic club
night The ex-governor has grown SO
sarcastic. so satirical as well as hum
orous that it is really hard To tell
when he Is really in earnest His
hearers are Obliged 10 lean forward
and watch his every gesture and
change of expression To catch the
hidden meaning of MS remarks
He made the bold assertion today
thai he originated the plan to have
the Denver pow WOW. He looked ser
ious for an instant and then beaming
on his old partner in politics broke
into one of those winning smiles of
his. and all saw the joke and laughed
immoderately.
Today Billy Green and one or two
of his companions who have been in
Jail several months expect TO get out.
These are some of the faithful who
stuffed ballot boxes and stole the cleo
ton for John Snaffroth in 1902 and
for Alva Adams in 1904 The Demo
cratic statesmen for whom these men
nave suffered durance vile will be at
the banquet tonight, but It is safe to
say that in their appeal for purity
and for honesty in public life and in
elections, they will not mold these
prominent Democrats up as horrible
examples

ATTEMPT TO WRECK TRAIN.
Piled Ties Upon Track of Iron Mountain Above Swift0n, But No Damage
 Was Done to No. 6.

Night before last unknown parties made an attempt to wreck passenger train No. 6, between Swifton and Alicia, Ark. Three stacks of ties were laid across the rails within a distance of a mile, and but for the caution of the engineer, Neal Goss, a disas- trous wreck would have oc- cured, says the Poplar Bluff Citizen.
 The pilot of the engine struck the first pile of ties, fortunately throwing them from the track. The other two Instructions were seen in time to enable the en- gineer to stop his train.
 The law provides a severe pen atty for a crime of this nature, and the perpetrators should get the full benefit of it.
 The object of the attempted wreck is generally conceded to have been robbery, as that is a a plan often used by train rob- bers to stop train.

BAD HEALTH.

 Calls. These Bring on the
 Deadly Bright's Disease.
Thousands Die of it Every Year.

Kidney disease the enemy we have most to fear as a result of the feverish rest1essness of modern civilization It is treacherous enemy, working out its deadly effect under cover of the most trifing symptoms. The first indication of changes in the urine, frequent head aches, digestive troubles, should be the signal for prompt remedial measures. Prickly Ash Bitters is kidney remedy of the greatest merit; it is soothing, healing and strengthening, quickly re- lieves the aching or soreness that always appears in advanced stages, checks the progress of the disease and through its excellent cleansing and regulating effect in the stomach, liver and bowels, it brings back the strength and ruddy glow of vigorous health.
 Accept no substitute. Insist on having
