Nisbet will step down and out. Thk most conspicuous object on the street one day this week was a wagon load of ear corn which is as great a curiosity here as a burro is in an eastern town. Pubblo’s city council is contemplat ing the widening of the river through the main portion of the city. The channel is also to be deepened, which Improvement will aid in carrying off the overflow. Strange that a silver producing country .leaves it to a non-silver pro ducing country to take the initiative in ■nakiug silver a standard money; but Jhat is the curious attitude of the United States and Russia to-day. r i ux Colorado Midland is determined to build the Cripple Creek road from the Divide to Midland, a distance of twelve miles and have the work done by December 10. This will leave but six miles of a drive into the camp. The county commissioners would be wise to not further postpone the delinquent tax sales. The sale has al- been postponed three months, and should the time be further extended the county will not have funds enough to meet its obligations. Hk would indeed be a poor physician who would bleed a patient already weak and suffering from lost of blood; aud yet that to exactly the idea of President Cleveland. He takes money out of circulation when the country is already suffering for the want of It. An editor has been found in the Sun Luis valley who says he would acorn to accept money as a recompense for party services in a political campaign. And yet newapaper men wonder why it is that next to lawyers and real estate men they are counted the greatest liars in the country. Tux executive committee of the women’s suffrage league of the county held a meeting and promised them selves to remember in the future Iheir “friends and enemies as their works do justly merit.” Prospective candidates for office who opposed the inevitable would be wise to bide out. or better still hire the campaign prevaricator to get in his w;ork. Thk Chicago anarch’.sts held a meet ing last Sunday to commemorate the taking off of some of the instigators of the memorable Haymarket riot in 1886, the orators putting in most of their time in eulogising Governor Altgeld. Chicago must bsve sighed with relief when the speakers advised their hearers to go to their homes quitely and create no disturbance Senator Teller said tbs other night that Colorado would not be the worst sufferer by the overthrow of silver. This state, he maintained, received the first shock, but on account of its diversity of resources it would again be prospexoua when many of the eastern states now persecuting it would be in greet distress. Bimetallism would be restored as an adsolute necessity. The east cannot do without long. The populists should kick themselves fer their ingratitude. Platt Wicks labor ed hard In the last legislature in the Interest of the employer’s liability bill and the two weeks’ pay bill. The third party claims to be made up of workingmen, and yet it is a notorious fact that every populist voted against Mr. Wicks at the Iste election for district judge. Any men should hold friendship above politics. The fellow who said, “man wants but little here below,” didn’t know what he was talking about. A popu list paper la a lengthy article on rail road rates fixes them up to suit Itself aad says: “May ws not bo uoaring the time when a postage stamp will take your carload of grain to Maw York as surely aad almost ss promptly as your letter?” If sack a time over should corns that editor would kick if Uncle Mam didn't furnish the stamp.

THE TIDAL WAVE What Caused the Detest of Democracy What does it ail mean, this stunning blow to democracy! Has the party lost its good standing with tho people who one year ago placed It in power, or is it only a forcible hint tn the administration to cause special lesislatiou to be enacted for the im mediate ralief of the business men and wage earners of the country? Why the frightful inroads in the ranks of the Ohio democracy, and why has the demodratic state of New York gone over to the camp of the opposition, while the example is followed every where, even school districts in old Missouri going republican? To Western peopla the answer is easy. They hold it ia because of the president’s hostility to bimetallism and his coercion of congress into do ing bis bidding coupled with bis threat to tinker with the tariff laws. Firmly as the western people believe these to be the true causes, the views held by the people of a great portion of the east are directly the reverse, they protest ing that the political change Is traceable to the slowness of congress in the repeal of the Sherman purchasing act and the failure of the president to carry out the much piomised' tariff re form preached by the national de mocracy and embodied in its platform. Perhaps the east is as near the truth of the matter aa the west, and that it was a combination of the dissatisfaction arising from both sections that caused the result and places Mr. Cleveland “between the devil aud the Deep Sea.” it would not be out of place to extend to his excellency a little charity, for while both the east and the west ascribe reasons for the political change the real cause is the hard times—the commercial distress, the non employ ment of wage earners and all the evil consequences that follow in the wake. No party can long remain in the ascendency in hard times, the people always being ready to shift about to change their luck. But while Mr. Cleveland can not be directly charged with the depression of the business of the country he ia criminal in not dir ecting legislation along that Hue which would get more money into circulation instead of putting a check to the al ready alow flowing stream of currency. Election Returns. Complete election returns of Pueblo county show that 5,440 votes were counted: Voorhees’ plurality waa 298, Moses 699, Henderson 615, McNamara 836, Weston 363, Fitzpatrick 277, Long 82, Donley 199, Davis 20$. Carey 521, Willauer 280, Herod 466. Cummings 846, againstequai suffrage 650. The result shews that J. W. Mc- Namara led the ticket That the hardest fight was made on the county commissioners. That Platt Wicka waa defeated by republican votes. That the hold-over county officials are popular with the people. That J. M. McKee exceeded the ex pectations of everybody. That only 8,790 vote* were cast on the woman suffrage question, 1,570 being for and 2,220 against, 1.650 voters not voting on the question at all, and That the republican ticket was elected. THE CUT IN STEEL RAILS. It may be a Plot to Rednee the Price of Labor. It ia believed by many that the re duction of $5 per ton on steel rails made by the Carneige Steel Co. is a dodge to reduce the price of labor. It can hardly be that the cut waa made In order to meet competition, because there is but little demand for rails at this time, the only call being for re pairs and perhaps a few miles occasion ally of aide track. Of course the re duction will be met by the Illinois Steel Co., and if the scheme is for the purpose of further reducing wages the fact will soon become manifest. Once the cut Is made lu labor the original price of the rails will be re stored, because, none of the com panies care to sell rails for $24 per ton. The C. F. & I. Co. is silent as yet oa the subject but it ia probable that the question received due discussion in the meeting of the directors held yesterday. Should tke eastern companies actual ly moan to maintain the low price of rails the Beeeeascr steel works would find It a difficult task to compete, and ltkaly enough It would cause the works to remain abut down for au indefinite period.

The city council adjourned Wedues day evening in houor of Senator Teller who waa to speak in Pueblo, the regular meeting being postponed one week. lu the absence of Mayor J. K. Demp sey Alderman Jackson, inuyor protein, took the chair and called the members to order. Alderman Miles moved to adjourn in honor of Senator Teller. Carried. A communication from Mauager Ormond was read inviting the mayor, the members of the council and the city officials to visit Columbia theatre in a body the following Friday night. On motion of Alderman Pannebakcr the iuvition was accepted, those in vited agreeing to meet at city hall aud visit the theatre in a body. Adjourned. Senator Henry M. Teller was given a rousing public reception at the Grand opera bouse, Pueblo. Wednesday night. The house was packed witl. admirers of the silver champion who were anxious to express hy their presence their gratitude to the great leader for his manly and able defense of their in terests. The seuator spoke briefly and to the point on the relation of the finances of any country with its pros perity, its intelligence and morals, and filled his listeners with a conviction that he had delved deep into his sub ject, and they understood perhaps for the first time how he held the respect ful attention of the United States senate for two months. His language is forcible, logical and clear; it can not be misunderstood; but one con struction can he placed upon it. His manner is easy and his intense earnest ness impresses one as being his leading characteristic. His address wa9 re peatedly interrupted by applause. MINSTRELSY AT THE GRAND. Barlow Brothers’ famous minstrels will appear at the Grand opera house next Tuesday evening. The entertain ment is replete with everything new.

The Hock Island is foremost in adopting any advantage calculated to Improve speed and give that luxury, safety and comfort that popular patronage demands. Its equip ment Is thoroughly complete with vestihuled trains, magnificent dining cars, sleepers ami chairs coaches, all the most elegnnt, and of recently Improved patterns. Pulthftil and capable management and polite, honest service from employes arc important Items. They are a double duty— to the tom puny and to travelers—and It Is sometimes a task dlfTIcult of accomplish ment. Passengers on this line will find little cause for complaint on that ground. The importance of this Line can he better understood If a short lesson In geography be now recited. What Is the great Eastern termini of the Hock Island Route?—Chicago. What other sub-Kastern termini hss It?—Peoria. To what important points does It run trains to the Northwest?—St. Paul and Minneapolis. Minnesota and Watertown and Sioux Falls, Dakota. To what Important Iowa and Ne braska points—Des Moines. Davenport, Iowa Omaha and Lincoln. Nebraska. Does It touch other Missouri River points?—'Yes; si. Joseph, Atchison, leavcnwnrth and Kansas City. Does It run trains to the Foothills of the Rocky Mountains?—Yes; to Denver. Colorado Springs and Pueblo, solid vestlbul ed from Chicago. Can Important cities or Kansas he reached by the Rock Island Route?—Yes; Its capital city. Topeka* and a full hundred others In all directions In the State, and It Is the only road running to and Into the new lands opened for settlement In the Cheyenne and Arapahoe Reservation. It will thus qe seen that a line tapping, as the Rock Island does, such a varied territory, has much in that regard to commend It to travelers, as all connections are sure on the Hock Island, and passengers can rely on a speedy Journey, as over a bulk of the system through trains are run, and it has become, snd rightly too, the popular Line. A very popular train on the Chicago, Rock Island A Pacific Railway leaves Denver, Pueblo and Colorado Springs, dally.
