There is surely a crying need
for genuine Democratic daily in
Denver. Democrats don't care to
be led by paper into the Repuh-
lican ranks nor have they any de-
sire to read editorials and other
matter derogatory to the interests
of the Democratic party in Denver
or in the state. A Democratic
paper in our judgment should sup
port Democrats when they are
nominated by the party and it is
not up to the editor of a so-called
Democratic paper to say whether
or not the ticket is Democratic.
