may be repeated-God forbid that

arrive. Some such period may make
our declaration OF independence
merely a memory. The corporations
are building for it; the people alone

Leading TO anarchy and ruin VIII
they do it, is the question
We have more respect Tor the Peo-
people of Colorado this 18Th day Of
March than We have ever had in the
fifteen years Of our residence in the
state This feeling arises from the
fact that. under the most terrific
strain. caused by robbery Of the
rights Of the people in deposing Alva
Adams as governor. they are
willing TO wait to express their dis
approval at the ballot box, instead Of
dynamiting the capitol and taking by
force that which is theirs That they
can so contain themselves is a mar
vel and speaks well for the respect
that the people Of Colorado have for
constituted authority. whether that
authority has sold itself for gold or
was working righteousIy- What out
come there might be to this great
farce. he'd the people a false leader
that would rather be right by force
than by law that governs through
the ballot box. We are afraid even
to contemplate.
The Herald: II It were in the pow
er Of the Herald to do so, it would
elect the entire democratic ticket
from top to bottom Ii would exer-
else that power for two reasons the
first is. because we stand for demo-
cratic principles; and the second is,
that the poorest candidate on the
democratic ticket is the equal if not
the superior Of the gentleman who is
/ his opponent. Taking the two tick
cts as a whole. it is a conclusive fact
that there are many reasons why the
democratic ticket should be elected
/ A very partisan republican was heard
to say Monday that it appeared to
him as If the democratic nominees
generally speaking. were composed
of the best material While the en-
[ tire space Of the Herald will not be
devoted to politics. yet we hope and
trust and believe the democratic tick
ct will come out successful in the
race.
I The democratic platform is the ex,
preston Of the party on questions at
issue in this city. It seems broad
enough to cover the entire range o.
anticipated material progress in III,

butts or "ands" It is either al
right to him or all wrong Every
nominee OF the party has expressed
his approval OF that platform and the
party as a whole pledges its atti

terms Of the platform

A so-ealled citizens ticket has been
