Jcihn E. Luthrop, formerly editor
of the Kant Oregonian, but now
Washington correspondent for the Or
cgon Dally Journal, wrlt-s of the city
of Denver to that paper as follows,
while attending the national demo
cratic convention:
Crumbling was heard throughout
the cart and Bouth, when tho demo
cratic commute at tts WaHhlngton, D.
C, neMon lact Hpilng selected Denver
for the national convention.
Right now, after the delegate and
slght-scerH lyive matin the Journey
here and partaken of the hospitality
of the Dcnverltc. one cunot find a
"kicker," unlexH It be lomeone who
kicks naturally and would kick were
he to go toN heaven.
As a matter of fact, Denver In near
er heaven than many of these dele
gates ever will get, for the elevation
Is over 5000 feet above the sea, the
foundation of the city hill being ex
actly G280 feet elevation, Just a mile
In the air.
Approaching the city In the Hurl
Ington express, the delegates experi
enced mingled sentiments caused first
by the glorious view of the Rocky
mountains to the right, eternally
now-crowned In places, and rising
errated range on range, plainly seen
although 60 to 70 miles away, and
second to the expectation of being rob
bed by the hotels and everyone els
In Denver, thanks to the excited ad
vance reports sent out by the men
dacious correspondents.
Westerner Are Overjoyed.
Enjoying the magnificent moun
tains, welcome, Indeed, to those of u
who had lived amid the mountains of
the Pacific coast or the south In past
yrSrs, we took our purses from their
usual pockets and stowed them In
other out-of-the-way places, and
hunted up our guns to defend our
. (elves against the holdups.
Alighting from the train. In a morn
ing atmosphere which made visible
objects a hundred miles away, we ran
the gauntlet of a doien large-hearted
Denverltes, who, Instead of holding
us up, offered to locate us In com
fortable rooms at moderate price In
the center of the city. Two newspaper
men of us got a room within one block
of the Brown Palace, good enough for
an aristocratic New Yorker at $1 a
day and the two until the convention
opened, and then 12.50 a day for the
two for the remainder of the time.
When one gets Into tho grasp of a
royal-hearted Denverlto, he ceases to
wonder at the fame of this city for
hospitality, and learns why the nation
al committee located the convention
here. It was not a mistake.
Easterners Anuued.
Eastern and southern travelers were
amazed at the immense stretches of
prairie over which the train sped. Far

My baby had a running sore on hia
neck and nothing that I did for it took
efftvt until I used Cuticura. My face
was nearly full of tetter or some similar
skin disease. It would itch and, after
scratching, it burned so that I could
hardly stand it. Two cakes of Cuti

cured it for a while, but it came again

Then, as one approaches Denver,
the aspect change and there are those
tremendous ranches whereon cattle,
