MAY INVITE
GOV. WILSON
wa-wn ~
TO COME HERE
AFTER ADDRESS IN ALBANY
Wilson Men Here Want to
Hear Him

1t was suggested here yesterday by
staunch supporter of Woodrow Will
son that the New Jersey governor be
rendered an invitation to come to
Americas and address the people Of
the city after the speech he will de-
liver at the Albany chautauqua on
Wednesday.
The fact that Governor Wilson will
be so near Americas when he comes
to Albany to speak is the basis for an
opportunity to extend an invitation 10
the well known democrat to come to
Americas and to address the voters
here, as the candidacy of Governor
Wilson for the presidential nomina-
ton has aroused wide interest
throughout the entire country.
Among the Wilson supporters who
suggested the extending of an invi-
tation to him to come to Americas
are Messrs J. E. d. Ship and j. E
Sheppard, who spoke yesterday con-
corning the matter and expressed a
desire that sufficient interest could
he aroused here to secure the coming
of Governor Wilson.
1t is very likely that some formal
action will be taken to extend an in
vitation to Governor Wilson, whether
matters snaps themselves so he can
accept it or not. That a large audi
ence would be assured him in the
event he decides to come would seem
to go without saying.

NOVEL BRAID DAISIES
THEY ARE MADE OF REVIVED
aIck-RAcK TRIMMING.
cabochon Of Them Placed at the Side
of White Lingerie or. Straw Hat
Gives a Most Pleasing
Effect.

On one of the expensive little hats
for children seen the other day a
wreath of daisies was used with great
effect. 1t was a model sent out by
noted milliner in Paris, yet any
needlewoman could reproduce it. The
whole story hinges around the making
of the daisies.
Do you remember the old-fashioned
rick-rack braid used on our baby
dresses? In those days our mothers
were busy in sewing together this SER
pentine braid in straight bands. in
more intricate flower designs. or in
motifs that were inset on yokes and
sleeves. Rick-rack trimming has been
revived. 1t is SO easy and SO very ef-
fective that it comes back with dou-
BILE appeal.
The braid Is .serpentine and general
ly white in color. 1t can be sewed at
the points and very easily twisted in
flower that. when a yellow center of
braid or linen is added. resembles a
daisy with pleasing fidelity.
Some daisies can be made in double
rows; some in triple rows. The daisy
form then changes to a dahlia: but
whatever the flower may be. 1t is at
tractive.
When one daisy is made. you will re-
peat the process. which is very easy.
and add the daisies in straight line
or in an irregular wreath. one follow
ed by two or three in a group.
A huge cabochon of these braid
daisies placed at the side Of white
lingerie hat or a fine straw shape will
look new and will remind one Of the
popular field flowers that have been
accorded so much favor this spring.
From the millinery idea the clever
woman can depart into other fields OF
dress. On dainty little flower frocks
of figured batiste. null or muslin. lit
tie clusters of rick-rack daisies can be
placed at the girdle. on the ends of
sashes or in garlands that hold up the
1rapery at the side of a skirt.
A high waist line can be outlined
with these pretty little flowers. AS
the rick-rack braid is procurable in
several widths, daisies can be made In
several sizes, and a delightful variety
can be given by grouping little and
big flowers.
Rick-rack can be bought at the art
needlework department or at the no
ton counter of any large store. There
promises to be much work in this new
flower idea Isot 1t fine to be able to
use an old idea with such excellent
results?

DENVER MARKETS.

Denver Union Stock Yards. July
17.-Receipts here last week We're
liberal and demand very good. Good
dry lot cattle held up pretty well.
though prices closed little lower.
owing to eastern declines. but good
grass steers and cows closed rs to
so cents off, and palmer grades SO
to IS cents off. These declines are
caused from the fact that great
deal of green grass stuff is now
coming in and this stuff is killing
out very poorly. Eastern markets all
declined sharply on this stuff and
this market followed the lead of
other points. A decline of this kind
is always looked for at this time OF
the year when grass cattle begin to
come freely. Good cattle are still
as much or more here than at rvier
markets. Good grass steers sold at
l$675 to $7.25 and fancy stuff on
up. Coed cows brought $5.25 to
1918 and fair ocwB $3.50 to $5.25.
Bulls sold at 81 to IS for grassers.
and veal calves up to $S. Few dry
lot cattle were here during the week
The demand was good and they
moved readily at good prices.

The Independent news reporter
was in Palisade the first of the
present week and learned that the
fruit growers of that section were
making extensive preparations for
taking care of the hundreds OF
fruit pickers and packers who will
be at work inside of the next three
weeks.
Unlike most towns located in fruit
growing districts, Palisade is in the
very center of what seems to be
one great orchard, and there will be
many workers in the fruit who can
live right in town. If places are pro-
vided, going to and from the orchard
in which employed every morning
and evening.
The hotels. restaurants and room
ing houses can take care of large
number. but there will be large
overflow, and for these, every avail
able building will be equipped with
comfortable sleeping facilities and
extra eating houses are to be estab
lished.
The opera house OF the town has
been leased. 1t is said, and Will De
come a lodging house. Good beds
will be furnished am 1t Is proposed

Nothing but public opinion and
personal honor binds a presidential
elector to vote for the candidate of
his party. But public opinion and
personal honor for a hundred years
have had all the force of a consti-
tutional mandate in the selection of
president. No electeor ever be-
trayed his trust. No elector ever
obtained his office under false pre-
lenses. No elector has cared to sub
nit to such treason to the Judge
ment of history. Theodore Roose-

proposed that presidential electors
should vote not for the man who
obtained the Republican nomination
but for the man who was defeated

tical convention is supposed to be
a great deliberate body, but a thous-
to fifteen thousand bowling parti-
sans have no chance to deliberate.
hence a delegate. who wants to
make a motion has to go to the
platform for the purpose, and then
what he says is heard with the
greatest difficulty.
If the speaker tries to advocate a
cause that happens to be unpopular
with the galleries he is hooted down
and most of the time business is de-
layed by so-called d emons.ratiors to
demonstrate nothing but the lasting
power of human lungs. The result
is that the convention, instead of
being representative body engaged
in a serious discussion OF political
business, becomes a shouting and
perspiring mob.
From all accoun the enthusias
tic adherents of Champ Clark, packed
the galleries of the Baltimore con-
vention and kept the hall in a con-
slant state of bedlam. The announce
ments of the chairman had to be
made by means of a robust mega
phone, and men who were anxious
to get through with the work of the
convention and go home, were COM
PEELED to sit idle for hours while the
crowd in the galleries INDUCED in
meaningless whOOps and yellS.
This kind of disorder can and
ought to be stopped hereafter. If
the hall were closed to all but the
delegates and representatives of the
press a convention would be an or
derly assembly and be able to con-
duct it's business in an orderly way.
There would then be intelligent dis
cussion instead of foolish demon
strations'' and fewer long winded
speeches designed to impress the gal
leries.
1t is true that the attendace then
would be smaller if the galleries
were closed, and the political
convention would bring less when
placed upon the block and bid forby
rival cities, but the monetary loss
would be more than offset by the
gain in dignity, decency and order.

That portion of the nations press
which has lately been conspicuous
for it's attempt to ridicule President
Taft, cannot be too strongly con-
demned. However heated the Am
erican' people may become over po-
litical principles and policies. only
those who are without courtesy or
ordinary instincts of a gentleman
descend to the pettiness of slurring
public official because he may be
fat or lean, short or tall. 1t can
not be denied that President Taft
has maintained the dignity of the
office he holds and is entitled to
the personal respect of every citi-
zen, regardless of political creeds.

HOW NOVEMBER REPUDIATES
July

Wall St. bets to that Wilson
will beat Taft" BETS are offered
in New York without any takers,
that Wilson will have two-thirds
majority in the electrical college
These chirps over the wire have
familiar sound. With a change of
names the country heard similar out
bursts before. After Greeley was in
dorsed by the Baltimore convention
in 1872 the betting men in new York
offered odds on his election. In the
summer of 1876 Tilden swept" the
country. Ten days before the cleo
ton of 1896. Henry George who
had been accompanying the candi-
date on some of his trips. predicted
that Bryan would carry every state
except possibly four or five.
Generally the Democratic candi-
date is much stronger in midsum
mer than he is two or three months
later. He gets elected every day ex-
cept election day. Therefore those
who recall the instances In which
the betting men were wrong in the
cam paigns of the past will smile at
the confidence, or pretended conf.
dence with which they are making
forecasts for Wilson now. Neither
Wilson nor his creator, Bryan. is
showing any special exhuberance
over the outlook. From experience
Bryan remembers the delusive char
acter of the whoops which come i'm
mediately after the convention. In
deed Bryan had good reason to feel
rather confident in 1896. He at
tracted larger crowds than had gath
cred to greet any other candidate
since the civil war. No such audi
ences can be won by Wilson. He
lacks the magnetism as well as the
eloquence of Bryan The sincerity
of his recent conversion to radical
ism is not apt to impress the rad
icals, while it will arouse distrust
among the conservative side of the
Democrats.

ders of William Jennings Bryan"

says he will support Wilson, does
anyone suppose he will work with
