Those persons who have been an

rest Wednesday when the report OF
the committee on resolutions was pre-
scented to the convention and adopted
The Bryanites get as their share OF
the net result-the platform.
Taken in connection with the fol-
lowing vote on United States senator
we learn that the Democratic party
of Colorado favors:
Bryan and Hughes.
The regulation and control Of state
railways and Hughes.
A stte bank deposit guarantee law
and Hughes.
The election OF United States SEN
ators by vote Of the people and
hughes.
A direct primary law and Hughes.
The initiative and referendum and

The municipal ownership of public

The Democratic party of Colorado

The Democratic party declares that
the supreme court Of the state has
forfeited the respect OF the people,
because of its subserviency to corpor
alton influences. and nominates Hugh
es. the corporation attorney. because
of corporation influences.
The Democratic platform this yeal
is ultra radical. 1t has some good
things In it, but In the main it is
intended to offset the fact that the
convention was dominated and con
trolled by the Speer machine acting
under corporation orders.
The platform Is entitled to neither
respect nor confidence, for its every
promise Of reform is nullified and CO
tradicted by the actions OF the con
vention in seating the Speer delega
ton from Denver and in nominating
factors wherever their official author
tiles were deemed necessary for the
accomplishment of the corporation
programme.
1t would be easy to critic the plat
form for its extreme radicalism. ant
to rebuke its Incorporate utterancei
and its distorted statements.
But what is the use?
The platform means nothing, pro
misses nothing. is nothing but sol
thrown to Bryan voters.
The corporation managers did no
even expect that the Bryan voters
would be deceived by it, but the.
were willing to give to the anti-Spee

HOW OTHERS SEE HIM.
Beethoven, Cross Old Bear; How He Once
Snubbed a Count.

A hitherto unpublished jourla! Of
Louis Cramolini, who died in 1884 at
Darmstadt, where he had been tenor and
afterward manager of the Court thea
ter, gives a pathetic picture of Beetho-
vens last days, observes a writer in the
Boston Transcript When Louis was q
child his mother had taken him three
successive summers during his vacations
to Bruhl. near Vienna; they were lodged
with friends, the Lederers, in the very
house in which Beethoven lived. There
was not much intercourse Itl Ike s0li-
tary man, deaf and savage in his ways.
However, he willingly exchanged few
words with Nine Cramolini, who spoke
slowly aud pronounced very distinctly:
and he showed some Kindness TO the
child when he learned that it's name was
Louis. like his own. The mother made
bold 10 tell him that her son, having a
fine soprano voice. wished to be must

Beethoven. Let him be n painter like
his father; then he can live by his art;
while mnsic would make him die Of
hunger"
The musician went often to the cha
teau Of Prince Liehtenstein. and took
with him the young Cramolini, but the
pr0menaders seldom spoke. One day
that the child had asked his companion
the name Of a pretty butterfly be bad
caught, Beethoven had answered, Let
me alone, little murderer" and the
young Louis had understood that he was
not to be troubled in his reveries,

Hints to the Cook
by Mrs. Regina Rogers.

Allow shorter raising for bread to
be cooked by steam, since the dough will
rise during the cooking because of the
lower temperature employed.
The custard for pie will be much
smoother if the eggs are broken into
the milk and the mixture well beaten
with a rotary egg-beater.
Skewer baked fish with thin slices of
salt pork or bacon. Fried fish will be
! improved in flavor if fried in fat used
previously for the same purpose

camphor to Break un a Cold.

one Of the most efficient remedies for
breaking up a cold during its earliest
stage IL camphor. When the eyes begin
to water aud there is tho accompanying
tiugling Of the nose and feeling Of chilli
ness, place three drops Of camphor on
q lump Of loaf sugar aud place the sugar
In the mouth.
Repeat this every fifteen minutes till
four OF FIVE doses have been taken. At
the same time place the feet where thew

will usually prove effectual in breaking
