ANOTHER COLORADO PAPER IN LINE

The Boulder County (Colo.) Herald has decided to support the McKinley administration. The Herald left the Republican party in 1896. It says: “On the issue of ‘imperialism,’ which is a misnomer, the Herald believes in standing by the present administration. It believes in the light of events that the administration is pursuing the proper course. It looks upon the cry, of ‘imperialism’ as a foolish play upon words which should not be in-, dorsed at the polls. The Herald has the highest admiration for Mr. Bryan. It believes him to be sincere, but it also believes him to be in error in this instance. Further than that the cry of free silver still has an effect upon the business interests of the East similar to the shaking of a red rag at a bull. The fear of it would so frighten business Interests as to cause a financial collapse equal to, if not greater in extent to, that of 1803.”
