Colorado goes republican with clean
sweep, electing a republican Governor,
a republican member Of Congress. and a
republican Legislature which will elect

The republican majority will be about two
thousand. In 1874 the democrats carried
the election, elec,ipg Patterson to Con
gress by democratic majority of 2l63.
Evidently Colorado wants a change, but
not towards Tilden
