Yesterdays Sentinel contained
the announcement that Mesa
county democrats would be en-
titled to 23 delegates in the
state democratic convention at
Pueblo on September &, the larg-
est number of delegates ever
sent from this county to state
convention.
And now comes the announce
ment that the Mesa county re-
pubiicans will also be able to
send more delegates to the state
convention of that party than
they have ever sent in the past.
They will be entitled to 23 dele
gates-the same number their
democratic brethren in Mesa
county will be entitled to send
to the Pueblo convention.
Chairman John F. Vivian has just
issued the official call for the repub-
lican state convention, which will be
held Saturday, September IL, at the
hour of 10 o'clock, in the auditorium
in the dty of Denver.
The total number of delegates will
be 1.105. OF this number Denver
county will have 247 delegates, or
nearly 20 more than the democrats
of Denver will send to their state
convention.
However, in many of the smaller
counties the delegations will be much
smaller than the democratic delega
tions from the same counties, and
on the whole the democratic state
convention will have more delegates
than the republican state convention.
Each convention will nominate
candidates for the following offices:
Five presidential electors.
One congressman at large.
One governor.
One lieutenant governor.
One secretary of state.
One attorney general.
One auditor of state.
One state treasurer.
One superintendent of public in
struction.
One judge of the supreme court
(to fill vacancy.
One judge of the supreme court
for the term of six years.
Two judges of the supreme court

One railroad commissioner for the

In this connection the Commissioners re.
new their previous recommendation for
the establishment Of psychopathic hos.
pital in the District OF Columbia The
necessity for an institution of this char
acter is becoming more and more appar-

are called upon to receive for treatment
cases which may or may not be i'm the in
cipient stage of some form OF insanity and
which have not developed sufficiently to
warrant the attending physicians in Ger
tifying them to the Government Hospita
for the Insane: and every day these hos
pitfalls promptly and firmly refuse to adj
nit such cases for the reason that they
are not equipped for the care and treat
ment OF such cases. In addition TO this
the police surgeons are daily called upon
to pass upon the question Of the sanity or
insanity of persons held in the station
houses and the house OF detention The
most experienced alienists in the world
could not properly examine and decide
ton of the police surgeons in the shor,
time allowed for such examinations. In.

anl:nations of persons brought before

The work OF the office of the surveyor
shows a decrease from that of the pre-
