council tomorrow which will promiil-
gate a platform upon which Governor

who opposed it.

Denver, Colo, Aug. 29.-With the
entire city dressed in patriotic attire
and with the strains of martial music
on every hand, Denver today gave an
enthusiastic welcome to Colonel Theo
dore Roosevelt and to thousands OF
other visitors to the seventh annual
national encampment of the United
Spanish War Veterans. The greeting
to the old colonel of the Rough Rid,
ers was as noisy as human voices,
steam whistles and guns could make
it and as cordial in words as in other
manifestations of patriotic joy
Seldom in her history has Denver
entertained so large a crowd. The
city's ordinary population was swelled
by thousands of visitors from all
parts of Colorado and by the hun
dreds of delegates from all over the
country to the convention of the Span
ish war veterans. Many distinguish
ed guests were present in addition to
the ex-president of the United States.

]. Franklin Bell, General Frederick
Funston and Colonel VIM. ]. Bryan.

j. Gihon of Massachusetts, command
er in-chief of the Spanish war vet
Grams, and Mayor Robert w Speer
and the members of the reception
committee appointed by him greeted |
the ex-president and his party when
they alighted from their special train, |
accompanied by Governor Shafroth |
and staff.
The procession moved up Seven
teenth street, while the troops salut-
ed and the band played Hail Column
bia." Following the carriage in which
Colonel Roosevelt, Governor Shafroth
and Mayor Speer rode came other car
riages containing noted guests. These
were followed by the Spanish war
veterans, regular troops from Fort
Logan, the Colorado National Guard,
the High School Cadets, Grand army
veterans and numerous other military
and semi-military organizations. At
the capitol the procession was re-
viewed by Colonel Roosevelt, Cover
nor Shafroth and other notables /
