The tragedy which has befallen our

decide the issues in the heart of every
honest man. A great mind. a noble
hearted man has fallen a martyr to
the city's liberties, the city's honor.
Conscious Of his physical weakness, yet
following the call of the city to him,
he plunged into the thick of the fight
regardless of himself, though with the
presentiment on his soul which he eX-
pressed in that pathetic word of his
Cooper Union address:
I accept your nomination and will
remain in the fight TO the end, though
l die in it.
All have said as to the ethical as
poets of the issues. he was the living
embodiment. The intense earnestness
of his moral nature led him to plunge
almost recklessly into this battle for
the peoples rights and liberties. He
could not be apathetic. He could not
be Indifferent when the fate of a city
of 100000 souls hung in the balance.
This intense earnestness was one Sc
cret of his strange power over the

HISTORY OF The UTES.
These Tribes Held Possession Of the
Mountain Districts.

MounC2ln Districts.
Field and Farm: The Utes are not
Indigenous to this section of the coun-
try, as many suppose. When the first
Colorado settlers came here these IN
dams consisted of several tribes, num-
bering in ell about 5000 persons, hav-
ing Dossessio nof the mountain dis
tricts. The tribes were confederated
for mutual protectioi, and the boundary
lines OF the territory were we'll forth
fed by strong bands of warriors, and a
we'll organized runner system kept all
well informed of any threatened dan
ger the head chiefs of the nation being
in constant communication with each
OF er.
One tribe was stationed in North
park. another on White river, another
in Middle and South parks, the fourth
scattered no and down the valleys of
the San Luis, Uncompahgre and Grand
rivers. The entrace to the valleys of
the Platte and Arkansas rivers were
closely guarded to precent intrusion.
The Utes we're not hostile to the early
settlers, who found they kindly dis
posed and speaking a mixed language,
consisting mainly of the lingo prevail
ing in Old Mexico among the Indians

ping the streams and lakes OF Colorado
had lived among these Indians and
they had come to think we'll of the
white man.
They rather favored the advent of
| the settlers as a support against their
greatly outnumbering enemies, the
Pawnees, Cheyennes, Arapahoes and
other tribes living on the plains. Any
stray hunting party of plans indians
getting too close to the foothills We're
swooped down upon and a scalp dance
about the Ute lodges proclaimed the
victorious result. a tradition sung IN
the native tongue proclaims how the
enemies tried to invade their home and
the dongs Toasted on the scalpless re-
mains strewn in gulch and on noun
tain side. They seemed to consider
that if the whites could fight their way
across the plans, they were good
neighbors to have.
There is no doubling that the Utes
have lived in this section of the coun-
try for a century or more, but accord

en- from far south to the plains OF
southern Colorado, and were forced by

chief, who came in a cloud to the
mountains, carrying burning camp

them and entirely obscuring them from
the view of their pursuers. AS soon as
they were safely in the mountains the

forever, and disappeared. The cloud

THE FUSION STATE.
Kansas Claimed by Populists in Six
ty-Five Counties.

Kansas City, Mo-, Oct. 31.-Fuesday's
election in Kansas, which will be for
two state senators, four state repre-
sentatives, L. district judges and new
sets of county officers in all of the 105
counties, will not bear in any great
degree upon future elections. The sill
yer question has cut no especial figure.
AS there are no state officers to be
elected, and no considerable part of
the state is interested in the election
or defeat of the same men. the cam
paigns have been thoroughly local, and
little general interest has been taken
in their results. Each county has run
it's own campaign in it's own way the
state committees having done very
little to help any of them. The regis
tration has generally been light.
The fight over the judgeships has
been the most interesting part of the
campaign. The Populists are deter
mined to win as many of the fights
as possible, and have put forth their
Populist state chairman, says the
Populists expect to carry at least IL
of the 10 districts. On the county
tickets there has been complete fusion
in 81 out of 105 counties, and Chair
man Riddle claims the fusionists will
win in IS counties.
The Republicans concede the fusion
lists a majority of the judgeships, but
Frank L. Brown, secretary Of the
Republican state central committee,
says the Republicans will win in more
than 20 counties.
