Lagr 2 Denver Very Busy. Colorado's Capital Is Making Ready For the Coming of the Democratic Delegates In July. The Convention Hall, Ee ENVER is making big prepara- tions for the coming of the Democrats of the nation on July 7 to nominate a candidate for the presidency. For some months the city has been busy with the plans for the entertainment of the expected visitors, and Denver and the whole state of Colorado are looking forward to the event with enthusiasm, Citizens of Denver gontributed $100,000 toward the expenses of the convention and will spend more than that before they get through probably in giving their guests the time of their lives. The City Auditorinm, which is now nearing com- pletion, will afford an ideal meeting place for the assemblage, and it will be possible for more persons te witness the proceedings and hear the speeches than has been possible at former con- ventions. The seating arrangements in the hall are completed already. There are to be 11,521 chairs in it in regular rows, and by placing additional chairs fn the aisles and in space left for 1 standing room it will be possible to | seat 14,000 people. This 1s a greater | capacity than that of the Chi seatin Garde temple in Sait Lake City The work of getting ready for the | convention in July is under the direc tion of the committee of arrangements | of the Democratic national committee | and of local commit The former committee | I¢ by ex-Governor | John E shorne of Wyoming. The lo cal committees are ing special atten tion to the arrangements for accom- | modating all who may come. Names of those who are expected are secured, so | . ! far as possible, In advance, and proper | quarters arc provided for them.
