N the new Audito rium at Denver, ca'pital of Colora do,on the 7th of July the twentieth na tional convention of the Democratic par ty will begin Its work of nominating candidates for pres ident and vice pres ident of the United States. A two-thirds vote of the 1.008 delegates, or 672 votes, will be re quired to nominate. In Republican na tional conventions a mere majority Is sufficient The Dem ocrats adopted the two-thirds rule at their first national ANDREW JACKSON t t in silhouette. "vention. seventy six years ago. Of the candidates for the presidential nomination at Denver may be 'men tioned William J. Bryan of Nebraska, John A. Johnson of Minnesota, David R. i Francis of Missouri, George Gray of- Delaware and Lewis S. Cnanler of New York. The convention will be called to order by Thomas Taggart, chairman of the Democratic national committee.; T r. I.. ' j The first Democratic; national con vention opened In Baltimore May, 21, 1832. Its chief duty was the nomina tion of a vice 1 presidential candidate. President Andrew Jackson,! then near the close of his first term, was so on! i i i versally popular wlth his party that uu other name was considered for the presidency. A resolution indorsing Jackson in about a hundred words was the only platform adopted.! Martin Van Buren of New York, Jackson's own selection, was named for the vice I presidency. ! I Prior to 1832 presidential candidates were nominated by mass meetings, caucuses, legislatrva resolutions and In other ways not national in character. In the Baltimore convention all the states except Missouri were represent ed by delegates. Since ,1832 the Dem ocrats have held quadrennial conven tions, and eight of them. Including the first, have met at Baltimore, , At President Jackson's Instance the convention which named candidates for the election of 1836 met May 20, 1835, nearly eighteen months prior to election d&j, thus giving Martin Van Buren and Richard M. Johnson, the nominees, the longest campaign in the history; of America. This convention adopted no platform. Andrew Jack- e on was the Democratic platform. The whole power of Jackson's administra tion "was exerted toward the election of Van Buren In order to overthrow John C. Calhoun, with whom "Old Hickory" had quarreled. ! ; President Van Buren was renominat ed In 1840, the convention meeting May 5, as the unanimous choice of the party. The convention refused to re nominate Vice President Johnson, mat ine. . In fact, no nomination for that ofBce. Nevertheless Van 1 Buren was badly defeated in the election by Wil liam Henry Harrison, while Johnson was elected vice president by the Unit ed States senate. The convention of 1840 adopted a platform, the first ever adopted by any national convention, j It declared that the federal govern ment Is one of limited powers, which 6hould be strictly construed by all the departments. The convention of 1844 met May 2T and nominated James K. Polk of Ten nessee for president and Silas Wright of New York for vice president, but SVright refused to accept the nomina tion. George M. Dallas of Pennsylva nlar was placed on the ticket in his stead. .Wright's refusal was because of pique at the defeat of Van Buren, who tried J to break down the two thirds rule and secure a renomlnation for himself . Folk, was the first "dark horse" nominee! in our historyt He had not been mentioned for the presidential nomination prior to the convention. Lewis Cass of Michigan was nomi nated for president at the 1848 conven tion, with William O. Butler of Ken tucky as the vice presidential candi date. The convention met May 2. The convention of 1852, which open ed June 1, was a battle royal, and in the end another dark horse. Franklin Pierce of New Hampshire, was named for president The fight was between Cass, nominated and defeated four years before, and James Buchanan of Pennsylvania. Finally Pierce, was voted for on the thirty-fifth ballot by the Virginia delegation, which persist ed in voting for the New Englander until pn the forty-ninth ballot; nearly all the other delegates swung over and nominated him. William R. King of Alabama was named on the ! second ballot for vice president j In 1S5G the Democracy finally broke away from Baltimore and met in Cin cinnati on June 2. During all of Presi dent Pierce's administration i Jamesi Buchanan had been absent from the country as minister to England and thus had escaped the fierce conflict on the slavery problem and the incidental anarchy in Kansas. Buchanan. Doug las and Cass were candidates before ,the convention. Pierce sought re- nomination and received a substantial vote, but his attitude in having favored the repeal of the Missouri compromise rendered him a weaker candidate than Buchanan? whose absence had been his poll leal salvation. Buchanan re ceived the nomination, with John C Breckinridge of Kentucky as the vice presidential candidate. The platform adopted at this convention j approved the course of the Pierce administration In repealing the Missouri compromise and thus giving slavery a chance to Intrench Itself in the new territories north of the southern line of Missouri. The convention of 1800 met at Charleston. S. C, April 23. This was the fiercest Democratic convention ever held,, slavery extension being the bone of contention. Stephen A. Douglas was Dy far the strongest presidential prob ability. The convenfion voted fifty seven ballots without casting the nec essary two-thirds vote for one man. Finally the convention adjourned to meet in Baltimore June 18. Before adjournment several southern : states withdrew, being opposed to the Doug las platform. The seceding; delegates held a convention in Charleston, adopt ed a platform for which they bad con tended in the regular convention, then adjourned to meet in Richmond ybe first Monday in June. On j this date the seceding delegates met and again adjourned to the 21st of June, i Mean while on the 18th the "regulars" met in Baltimore and nominated Douglas for president and Benjamin Fitznat- rlck of Alabama i for vice j president Fltzpa trick declined, and the national committee named Herschel V. Johnson In his place. Some of the "regulars" bolted the Baltimore convention ; and nominated for president John C. Breck inridge of Kentucky and for; vice pres ident Joseph - Lane of Oregon. , The "seceders" sitting in Richmond accept ed this ticket I ' At Chicago In 1864 the Democratic convention, which met Aug. 29, was national only as it related to; the north ern states. The eleven southern states then In the Confederacy, iof course, Rkhard P. Bland of MhwoarC but W&. j ttam J.

Davia; of West Virginia as runnlns mate.! . : I : At the nineteen Democratic national conventions already held fifteen indi viduals have been named for the presi dency. Of these six hare been elect ed. The successful candidates were Andrew Jackson, Martin Van ; Burvu. James K. Polk. Franklin Pierce, James Buchanan and G rover Cleveland, -j Van Buren was elected once and defeated once, Cleveland was elected twice and defeated once. Andrew Jackson was president two terms, but was the nom inee of a national convention only once, Tilden was elected at the elec tion and defeated by the electoral com mission. Bryan has been defeated twice and Is now again the leading candidate for the nomination. In 1904 he was not an aspirant for the honor. DENVER, A r MULE HIGH Sceac at Ike Deawcratk NatkNui CoaveaUoa.

The only hope of defeat ing President Grant for re-election was In a combination of the Democrats and the Liberal Republicans, who had de clared violently against the Grant ad ministration. - The Baltimore conven tion simply swallowed the Cincinnati convention product ticket, platform and alL Greeley and Brown were de feated overwhelmingly in November St Louis was the Democratic conven tion city in 1876, June 18 being the opening date.

Tilden was elected In Novem ber, according to the. best knowledge and belief of all Democrats anc many Republicans, but a special commission created to decide electoral contests voted his opponent Rutherford B.

The final vote on the matters In contest was eight Re publicans for Hayes and sevenfDemo- frnta for Tn1n. . i 1 In 1880 the Democrats met June 22 in Cincinnati. Tilden declined a re nomlnatlpn. General Winfield S.

A tablet! on! the side of a build ing in the Colorado metropolis sets forth4 the Interesting fact; that the attitude at that point is exact ly one mile above sea level. Never be fore has a national political convention elected to hold Itself so high up In the world, ind never before has such: a convention been held so far to ; the; westward.' In 1900 the Democratic na tional convention met In Kansas City,: that being until the present year "far-, thest west" for all national nominating1 conventions. j j Denver.

This will be, thai twentieth; national nominating conven-j tlon of the historic party, but the first to meet In a city the site of which was a barren plateau when the Democratic party nominated in 1856 its last suej cessful candidates prior to the great political changes brought about by the civu waj i ...... : y- :it The first settlements upon the land now comprising the thriving city of, Denver were made In 1867."

In forty years Denver has grown from next to nothing to undis puted greatness. American energy, the precious metals and the Colorado cli mate have made Denver the metropolis of the Rocky mountain region and one of the most enviable cities In the world. It is practically Impossible to discover j any body who once having seen Denver will speak ill of the city. To most persons Denver and delight spell the same thing. ; Denver! and determination also might be said to spell the same thing, for the hustling representatives of the Colora dd capital jwere so determined to se cure this convention that they pledged the Democratic national committee $100,000 jto help defray convention ex penses, and the money was In sight be fore the !nationnl committeemen could say Jack!

The structure contains 4.500.000 coble feet of space and is lighted by 5,000 sixteen candle power electric lights. Three million brick and 1.500 tons of steel were used In the construction. The 12.500 seats are all opera, chairs, no cheap wooden affairs, and there Is room forj the placing of a considerable number of extra chairs In tbe Immense hall when occasion calls for them. As to exits, this hall has tbe rest of tbe United States gasping for air. Within two minutes the entire building esn be emptied of its human throng. As to ventilation, the Denver Auditorium seems to! surpass every known prede cessor, for it has two great fans, each ten feet j In diameter, midway in the house, to send cold air through the building.! while thire is an exhaust fan to eliminate tbe foul air. Each fan has a coil of 12.000 feet of pipe to be filled in summer with cold water, thns es tablishing a cooling plant, and to be filled with steam In winter, thus heat ing the buCdIng. :j ' ' The Denver promoters, however, de clare that the July climate la so pleas antly cool that every delegate will be able to sit comfortably In the hall with his coat on Instead of being compelled, as at moat conventions, to go "la will fdlscover that there are sttjeois :ln Denver where s maty onerate.

Inl case two miles high is too low for satisfaction, there is still higher climb ing by rail. The road which climbs Gray's peak, not far from Denver, Is the "highest up- railway in the world. In a zigzag fashion the train crawls tap the mountain wall nntll all around the amated tourist lies perpetual snow and within his range of vision are 182 mountain peaks of the mighty Rocky range. .This high line is something new, having been in operation but two seasons. 1 The altitude reached by this railway is 14,000 feet, considerably more than two and a half miles. i Should further thrills be sought after these tbe passenger may mnste a one day trip Into the Royal gorge and re turn. Another trip is that Into tbe wonderful gold fields of Cripple Creek and their vicinity, which. In the lan guage of an enthusiast, is a one day trip that bankrupts tbe English lan guage." i A night's ride from Denver is Glenwood Springs, tbe beautiful wa tering place. A similar distance Is tbe Pike's Peak region, with : Oolorsdo Springs,1 Manltou Springs snd tbe cog road up Tike's Teak and the drive through the astounding Oerden of the Gods. " Denver Itself is sbout fifteen miles from the mountains, though the mar velously clear atmosphere causes the stranger to Imagine that ha can walk to the mountains snd get back before breakfast,! Gold and silver are by no means the only products of Colorado.
