DENVER Is THE ISSUE AGAIN


fortunes for all parties in this state
Is the fact that Denver is 80 pre-
dominatingly large in her numerical
strength in the state convention.
That city is about one-fourth of the
whole state in voting strength. and
being usually under the control of
one man, so far as each delegation
is concerned. the influence of her
delegations is sought by every aspir-
ing candidate for state honors. If
that delegation is under corporate
on account of political aspirations OF
individuals. to go wrong They are
liable to apologize for, and cater to
influences and powers utterly at
variance with popular good.
That is where the trouble lies in
the state today. Everyone of the
ten senators who are standing out
against the popular demand OF the
entire state without regard to part
les, is bound by invisible ties, to the
Denver utility corporations, controll-
ed in person by Evans. Hughes &
Speer. The several measures for
which they are called in session to
enact into law. are all directly in the
interests of the whole people. CIV
ing the people greater liberty to
correct abuses of the corporations.
and Of course the corporations are
opposing every step of progress.
Two years ago. by trining marg-
in. the speer influence in Denver
was given recognition In the state
convention; this was done through
pledges for place on the state ticket
in many Of the stronger counties.
and has resulted in most unnatural
alliances throughout the state and
the bitter opposition Of the Denver
combine to every demand Of the
party.

THE SEASON OF THE DOVE

Despite the efforts which have
been made by various societies de-
voted to the humane treatment of
animals and birds and by others
whose mission 1t is to protect the
creatures of the hills and meadows,
IL appears that civilization has much
ret to teach before the slaughter Of
doves will cease.
From inquiries made at hardware
stores where shells have been pur-
chased and from the number OF
dead birds which have been brought
in by hunters, It is estimated that at
least five thousand doves have been
killed in Weld county alone since
the opening of the season several
days ago.
And the beautiful little birds with
their delicate feathers flashing many
colored in the sunlight and their
soft Goo, such a necessary part OF
the harmony of the summer field
are not mere ornaments to the rip
ening farm lands, but are great de-
structfve agents to the grasshoppel
and to other vermin which threaten
the crops Of this county every year
Unlike other birds. they are never
q source of harm to any country.

coming back as big buyers on the adj
vance. and private reports came in
from all over the South from Western
speculative centers and from many of
the chief cotton centers abroad ex-
pressing a very bullish view of the
figures. 1t is doubtful whether a gov
eminent report ever caused a more
general buying movement or caused
more sensational rapid advance
Aside from the census report there was
no fresh feature in the news to attract
particular attention. The cold wave in
the South seems to have been followed
by favorable weather. but the buying
movement which sent January contracts
up from 1891. the low point of Monday
to 1850. and which closed the market at
practically the highest point of the dav
was encouraged by reports that the re-
vival of small crop estimates had stic-
fened the backbone of wavering Southern
holders and stimulated the demand from
mills
Southern spot markets as officially re-
ported were generally tos cents higher
and as Southern holders had not fully
followed the recent decline in futures.
this was regarded as quick response
to the renewal of the speculative ad-
vance. Some few reports were received
from Southern sources tending to mini
mize the bullishness of the census show
ing on the ground that the comparative
~ small ginning was due to the lateness
of the crop and there was some Southern
selling during the day. but these items
were comparatively overshadowed by the
strength of the market and the over
whelming volume of bullisn comment.
