TABOR'S DIVORCE.

The AtchisOn Champion and one or two
other papers are of wrong in their.criticism,
of the divorce of II. A. w. Tabor, ex-lieu
tenant goAernor Of Colorado. We personal
ly knew both Tsbor and his wife in the time
OF their poverty. They were poor-very
poor. He wore buckskin and his wife calico
and they lived in very small log cabin.
Tabor, SO far as our observations went, was
a sober, industrious, warm-hearted man.
We have seen him after his hard days work
was done, in the dusk OF the evening, dig.
ging away at the mountains side in search
OF lode. As for his wife-well. If he had
sued for divorce in those days he would
have been, in our judgment, entitled to a
decree
