The editorial recites an article in the Denver Express, a Republican paper published in Colorado, written by this man Gardner, giving a pre tended conversation between Senator Penrose and myself which be claims to have overheard in the Senate lobby concerning the Lippitt -wool bill. I understand he now claims one of the doorkeepers told him he heard the conversation, but will not tell which doorkeeper. i ......

The Sparks shows have improved and grown remarkably during, the last few years, and to those of us who re member its former visits coiiids the thought that it was always a clean, moral and entertaining show, and one we never hesitated in haying our families-visit.
