Denver, Col., Special. ? The Ameri

from every '? ection "adding their
throng.; and I he elatter of firework.*,
here. At night the State Capitol and
other public buildings loomed out of
the darkness in living fire with every
outline marked by myriad lights, the
streets pulsated with convent ion
thongs ami the elatter of fireworks:
the hotel lobbies were filled with pol
itieal leaders, delegates and onlook
ers from every section of th" eon itrv.
It is estimated that 'JO, 000 strangers
are already here and (>0,000 more are
cxpeete l in the next two da;. s.
The arrivals included the Missouri
delegation headed by the t:*11 gaunt
foim of Senator Stone; part of the
North Caioliaa delegation headed by
Governor Glenn who promptly retired
his candidacy fcr th? vice presidency,
and straggling advance guarJs of
many of the other delegations. Those

lonal interest on the giour.il.
Denver. Special. ? The platform
sent here from Lincoln to the rcso'u
tions committtee of the Democratic
National Convention has been con
pleted. It follows closely the lin"<
of the Nebraska platform, as written
by Mr. Bryan last March, and is otic
of the shortest enunciations of the
kind in th? modern political history
of the country.

the Republicans for failure to put

President. The declaration was made
in eonneetion with a discussion he
indulged in regarding the action of
the Republican National Convention
iu failing to insert such a plank ?s
he said "after President Koosevelt
aud Mr. Taft had both <"? glared
themselves in favor of such action,"
and -was made with a sincerity that
left .no doubt in the minds of his
hearers that he meant all he said.
Split Over Cleveland.
Charging that Alton B. Parker's
| resolution of tribute to .the memory
of the late President (Jrovpr Cleve
land is n clever move on the part of
the enemies of William J. Bryan to
infuse factional feeling into the
national convention, friends of the
Ncbraskan are determined to offer
a resolution of a character designed
not to raise controverted political
issues.
All Democrats, without regard to
factional affiliations,* applaud the
suggestion coming from New York
that the national convention should
embrace the first . opportunity of
honoring the memory of Mr. Cleve
land, but most of those who have
expressed themselves on the subject
are of the opinion that the resolu
tions adopted should not contain any
thing over which there could he the
slightest difference of opinion.
Mascot Obtained.
The Democratic party has secured
its mascot tor the approaching con
vention. It came iu the shap" of a
Kock Mountain burro, which was
presented to Chairman Thomas Tag
gcrt, of tl># national committee, by
the Denvtr Times. Mr. Taggart was
unaware of the honor intended for
hiin n:it il the animal was ushered in
to his presence at his headquarters
in the third I'cor of the Brown Hotel.
It was duly labeled; in large letters
in paint, one side bearing the iu
script ion :
"My name i< Denver; ask me,"
the expression having reference to a
huge badge for residents issued by
the citizens' committee for the bene- ?
tit of the strangers, reading: "I live ;
at Denver, ask me." The other side
was inscribed: "I belong t <* Tom
Toggart."
