Gilpin county at the present is
in fairly prosperous condition
and is rapidly going to the front.
AS will be seen in another part of
this impression there are mon in
Denver who know of parties who
are willing to put their money into
the mines in this section and in
vite correspondence regarding
properties. Another indication
that we are in an era of prosperity
is the fact that the demand for
miners far exceeds the supply,
and this condition in measure is
retarding progress which would be
rapid were it not for the scarcity
of labor. Good wages are paid

The investigation into the fraud
committed in Denver during the
recent election by the utility cor

condition of affairs that one would
hardly imagine could exist in a
city of this country, boasting of
equal rights to all and special

order to carry their franchises

SpEER'S ABLE LEADERSHIP! BAH!

The defeat of the Democratic
ticket Tuesday was a distinct dis
appointment to the supporters OF
the present city administration,
but after all both branches of the
city council still remain Demo-
cratic and in perfect harmony
with Mayor Speer, thus enabling
him to continue his policy which
is so beneficial to Denver and her
people. Senator Patterson gains
nothing by Tuesdays election, un-
less it be a satisfaction to him to
have the Republican party sue
cessfuI in this city. A policy he
has followed throughout his whole
career in politics in this city. The
Democratic organization in Den
yer will continue to support
Mayor Speer, whose able leader
ship has made Democratic success
possible many times in the past
and will continue to do SO in the
future.-Denver Democrat.
Now wouldn't that tickle the
tongue in your sisters shoe?
Mayor Speer's able leadership
making Democratic success pos
sible many times in the past. :"
Wow! That's sumner of an as
sertion. The editor of the Demo-
crat, doubtless, has forgotten how
the illustrious mayor of Denver,
this loyal (?) Democratic leader,
Bill Evans man, Friday, double
crossed the state ticket two years
ago, tossed the harpoon into Alva
Adams and did all he possibly
could to prevent the party he is
supposed to be affiliated with from
achieving an inevitable victory in
Denver. What did he do to the
Democratic workers who wouldn't
do his bidding and knife the
ticket but have the whole bunch
placed behind the bars for "crook-
ed work?" Has the editor of the
Democrat forgotten this sequel to
the 1904 election, too? "Senator
Patterson gains nothing by Tues
days election" His position may
not have gained the endorsement
of the Speer faction in Denver,
but his policy was undoubtedly
sanctioned by the true Democrats
who wouldn't follow the Speer
lead as was evidenced by the large
vote cast for the Municipal Owner
ship ticket.

recommendations to the mayor and council

of the suggestions relate to the police

cepting money for licenses, permits or fees

OLD COLISEUM NEXT THING IN SIGHT
Local Ministers Preparing for TOrrey.
Alexander Meetings Next Fall
Have Serious Problem
on Their Hands.

Where to hold the big revival is the ques-
ton which is disturbing the minds of the
members OF the committee on arrangements
for the Torrey-Alexander MEETINGS next
fall
When Mr.. Torrey and Mr.. Alexander
promised to come here. the local ministers
had no idea that they would not get the
Auditorium. Now they are not so sure
about that They have not yet decided
that they are able TO raise the $500 which
the board Of managers of the Auditorium
wants for the rent OF the building.
The only other building in the city large
enough to hold the masses Of people who
will attend-the meetings is the Coliseum.
II is not nearly so desirable as the Audi
torium, because SO far away from the
center OF town.
There has been some criticism Of the
Auditorium management for asking so
much money from political and religious
meetings. In this case the members Of the
committee say the management has been
very liberal and has made the best offer
It could. At a meeting Of the committee
with the board OF managers the latter ex-
planned there was a bonded debt OF $50. 900
on the Auditorium and a floating debt of
Sls.OO0 and that the expenses connected
with = meeting were 100 day. The month

for which the committee wanted the build
ing, November IS to December 16, was
calculated to bring 5000 gross receipts, If
the place were devoted to amusements. In
view Of the nature OF the proposed meet
ings, the board would sacrifice 1,4OO and
would rent the building for the month
for $500, allowing as part payment on
this whatever money is taken in on the
four Saturdays when the building will not
be used, to the amount of $500. At the
same meeting f. A. Nash pledged 500 In
the name OF the Omaha Electric Light and
Power company, and T. c. Byrne 500 for
Byrne g. Hammer. This would leave be
tween $3.50 and 5000 that the committee
would have to raise.
