COLORADO LEGISLATORS.
Denver Tribune.)

II Tabor's old partner, Bush, does not
wrong them in his sworn statement, Colora-
do legislators are very scheap trtckn indeed.
He says he took q contract to elect Tabor to
low as IS each, elected him at a total cost of
only 1880, thereby clearing $500 on the
contract. But as Mr.. Bush took the contract
to rid Tabor of his old wife and supply him
with a new. n for $4,000, and, as it is
known that the operation cost thirty or forty
times that sum, 1t may be that Tabor did not
do all his buying in the other case through
Bush. We are not prepared to believe that
. whole Legislature is such an inexpensive
tribe, compared with . baby Doe" as Mr..
Bush would make out. The solOns should
rise up and show that the market price of
their virtue has been misrepresented.
