Tins ia the lust day on which candidates for the various town offices can file acceptance of their nominations. The democratic convention will be held at the city hull at 2 o'clock this afternoon. \V. L. Shockey will he the nominee for mayor. It is now certain that the voters of Bessemer will not depart from their regular custom of swapping candi dates and the weak men will be quiet ly killed off. To register, you must appear be fore the county clerk with two vouchers who are electors living in your ward. Monday next is the last day. Extreme partisanship will kill any political party in the West. It lias done so and will do 90 again. This hint may not be last on the ‘•middle of the road” populist. The republicans in the fourth ward could not have made a better selection for alderman than it. M. Quackenbush. He is one of the hustling young men of the city and the men of his ward did well to recognize him. The republicans hold their con vention to-night. Charles Colvin leads in the mayoralty race while from the complexion of the delegates at this time Chris Funk is the fav orite for treasurer, though the nom inee may be W. 11. Cush or J. T. Glover. It comes with had grace for the National Populist of Denver in its initial number to begin n tirade against T. M. Patterson and the News Had it not been for Mr. Patterson and his able newspaper last fall the people’s party would’nt know that there had been an election. According to the Morning Call the next mayor of La Junta must be “a citizen of property, of dignity, of thought, of energy, of purpose and push.” The political ambition of La Junta's rising young daily is soaring very high and the higher it goes the greater will be the fall. The republican city convention will meet at the city hall at 7:30 o’clock this evening to nominate a candidate for mayor and treasurer. A. C. Colvin, the man who con tested the claim for the same nom ination against W. L. Kees a year ago will in all likelihood be the candidate. Ability, honesty and Independ ence are the qualifications to be sought in choosing men to repre sent the city for the coining term. Does the man you have m mind possess these essentials? If not he honest enough with yourself to study the candidate a little. A little reflection might induce you to vote for a better man. President Cleveland is going to follow the Jackson polio}' of rota tion in office with a vengeance and not content with paying his respects to the opposition will errry the idea into his owu party. This is a new federal deal and characteristic of the man. Mr. Cleveland is always springing something new on the public and his declaration that ex ofllce holders stand a slim chance of reappoiatment is one of his novel ideas and one which ia creating a great stir among his constituents. The new administration promises to be one of surprises. That the present legislature of Colorado is even below the mediocre in point of ability is a fact which is humiliating to the pride of the aver age citizen, and yet it is a fact which it is useless to deny. Thera is no consolation at all in the reflection that no one party is responsible for sending all the peanut-headed states men to the assembly; each party has its quoto, aud while there are a few able and judicious members in tbs legislature, the common herd is very common and in nowise intelligently represent their constituency. BESSEMER, COLORADO, SATURDAY, MARCH 18, 1893. 11. E. CnunnucK, general manager of the street car company has leased lake Minncqua for the coming season There is always considerable talk about casting politics out of city affairs until the time for action is only n few days of!’ when this handy stock in trade diminishes wonder fully and the man who is in part re sponsible for the manner in which the city is to be governed becomes a strong democratic, a republican or a people’s party man. This is strange, but it is a solemn fact and is to be regretted. The good resolve is broken as easily us a New Year’s pledge. Some lose their little heads in the whirl of excitement and others let prejudice rule, while both luck the courage to be fearlessly inde pendent. Some time or another when Bes semer numbers 19,000 people there will be a good sewerage system to carry offthe disease breeding slum and garbage of the city, there will be sidewulks on the main thorough fares, more trees will be planted at public expense along the streets, there will be a public park, and three or four artesian wells, horses and en gines will be added to the fire de partment, a viaduct will be built across the I). K. & G tracks, the steel works will employ 2,500 men, four story business blocks will loom high in the air, the street cars will come up Santa Fe avenue and ex tend on out to the lake, and the Indicator will be a flourishing daily when Bessemer numbers 10, 000; and the time is not fur dis tuut. The True Patriot. Tiie true patriot is the Mugwump who uses party-spirit if it serves for justice and right, but casts it aside if it is useless for this end, and where he is unable to form a party large enough to win the day for purity and economy, unites himself to that one which here and now is more likely to serve, this purpose, regardless what ticket his grand father or his father or he himself may have cast at other times.—Rev. Edward McSweeney iii The Colorado Catholic. STEEL WORKS SPARKS. The C. F. & I. Co. has mortgaged the stee. works plant for the sura of $(1,000,000 of which $4,800,000 will go to paying off bonded indebtedness and the remaining $1,200,000, or ut least a good portion of it will be spent in making improvements. Of course the rumor that the Union Pacific and the Missouri Pacific will establish locomotive shops here is unfounded, but that important extensions and improvements will be made is beyond question. As it is now much of tiie profits are being put into additions and repairs and the entire works have assumed an uir of substantial business activity. George Colgin, a rail chipper quit work » few days ago and went to Cripple Creek where he claims to have valuable mine Inter ests and will work in gold iustead of steel for a change. The addition to the main labora tory is going up rapidly under the bauds of a dozen brick masons. ’ The pay roll will be SBO,OOO for to day, being nearly $12,000 less than for last month. The cause of this is is tiie repeated breuk-downs in the converter and the damage re sulting to blast furnace No. 3 from an explosion. There were breaks and shut downs all through the mill and the wonder is that more time was not lost. The pay roll is large considering the difficulties under which the mill was run for tiie month. Frank Johnson for some reason threw up his job on tiie cupola a few days ago. Frank is one of the most popular young men in the works and the boys in ids depart ment miss him. J. E. Jones, ex-roll turner will leave for the East In a short time. Manager Howard L. Smith of the steel works branch of the Keeloy Institute is having his office at the rail mill plastered and papered and otherwise put in repairs. Master mechanic J. T. O’Rrien bad plenty of hustling to do tliis month owing to the many breaks in the mill. John Sipple, a switchman, was ter ribly crushed by a dinkey yesterday forenoon. In attempting to make a running and while going back wards his foot caught in a frog throw ing down and was badly crushed and cut by the dinkey. It is feared he can not live. The converter shut down last night for repairs and will not start again be fore Monday. Lots For Sale. Lota 24, 25 and 26 in block 53, diagonally across from Methodist ehuroh, for $2,000.

He bus friends in every party who can well afford to lay politics aside uud vote for him, a clean, able and conscientious citizen. PEOPLE’S PARTY CONVENTION. It was a foregone conclusion that W. S. Williams would be the choice of the people’s party for mayor. At the city convention Tuesday night he was made the unanimous choice and accepted the nomination in a brief talk. Tiie honors of mayor of Bessemer would rest easy on Mr. Williams, he being one of tiie fore most aud most valued citizens nnd has strong friends in all parties. He will be a hard man to bead off in the race. W. H. Cush, the present city treasurer, was nominated to suc ceed himself. Mr. Cush was elected on the republican ticket a year ago but some thought him a third party man and lie was nominated. Mr Cush, however declined the nom ination, he being a candidate on tiie Republican ticket, and A. Parks was nominated in his stead. Bessemer Building and Loan. The Bessemer Building and Loan association will hold its regular monthly meeting next Monday night, the principal business to come up being the sale of money, $3,000 now being in the treasury. It is understood there will be sev eral applicants which means that several new houses will soon be started. Tkis loan association is a very popular institution, reliable and enterprising and is growing steadly. It offers the best oppor tunity possible to those who con template borrowing money for building purposes. J. G. Knobel, one of Pueblo’s very foremost renl estate mow informs the Indicator that property is moving off in fine shape and that he will close several important deals in a short time. He spends most of his time in Bessemer and declares there is a constant demand for houses which cannot be met r.s there are few vacant buildings to be had.
