 Denver Is taking the ticket question nounced that there would be at least two thousand tickets for the whole State of Colorado. the Denver populace began to froth at the mouth and to call MT. Sullivan and Secretary Woodson names.
 Also the ticket question is adding gray hair to the men who secured the convention for Denver by getting sub scriptions of sl00.000 in gold. Here is the way the tickets are to be dis sub b-committee:
