Clear Creek counties, was CON-

with the murder of Arthur Collins,

Arthur Collins, prior to his going
to Telluride, was a resident of this
section and managed various mines
in the district. He was brother
of George Collins, manager of the
Newhouse tunnel. The man who
was so cruelty murdered had many

RADIO is so afraid that the Demo-
Gratis of the state may rub elbows
with the corporations in the COM
ing election. They are fearful of
Democratic success in Colorado
this fall and think it is necessary
to couple up with the corporations

received with the general enthus-
iasm that was anticipated. Taft
was Roosevelt's man more than he
was the choice of the Republicans
and the wishes or desires of the
party as to the nominee were ruth
lessly set aside. Roosevelt was
shrewd enough not to permit a
stampede for himself which would
have knocked Taft galley west.

Grover Cleveland, one of the
nations greatest men, passed away
at his home in Princeton yester.
day morning. The news of his
death came as a great shock to the
entire country. In his death Dem
ocracy suffers the loss of one of its
noblest leaders. Cleveland was the
last of the ex-presidents. He serv-
Ell the country as chief executive
two terms. His first administra-
tion met with general favor but in
his second on account of the panic
and the depression in business he
lost in popularity with the people.
He was criticised most unjustly by
those who were wont to place the
blame of the panic at his
hands. The condition of the
country during his second admin
stration has initiated against the
success of the Democratic party
nationally during the past three
elections. Until the naturalization
of the money stringency last fall
it was conceded by the Republi-
cans that the Democrats had a
monopoly on panics and it was out
of the question for one to arise
during Republican administra-
tion. However, the recent panic
has caused them as we'll as the re-
mainder of the country to form a
different opinion. Cleveland re-
gained his popularity during the
declining years of his life and to-
day his death is mourned in all
quarters.
