The democrats have large sized
family quarrel on in Denver. Tom
Maloney has replied to the attacks of
Senator Patterson, and after proving
conclusively that the Senator en-
couraged and had knowledge of the
contemplated frauds, says: II would
rather be Tom Maloney, who kept
his faith and carried out his pledge,
than the Hon. T. NJ. Patterson, SEN
ator of the United States, who di-
rected and suggested all that was
done in the spring campaign by the
Denver democracy, only to repubiate
his followers and denounce them as
felons in the hour of defeat"

Senator Patterson in the News
says the democratic frauds commit
ted by Maloney were too coarse"
If they had been more scientific and
smooth, (say like those committed
by Speer last fall which made a
senator out OF Patterson) then the
Senator would have been loud in
their praise. Any skulduggery that
fails in its purpose is coarse in his
view.

The editor of the Sparks last week
renewed his attempt to fool the
voters by trying to place the blame
upon our Representative and the
republicans of this district for the
most iniquitous piece of legislation

ever perpetrated upon the PeoPie VI
any state, namely the new apportion'
ment bill. 1t is so far reaching and
nefarious in its purposes that the
editor we'll knows that the voters
will punish the responsible party.
and he is trying to ward of the blow
from the democrats. The bill was
framed by the chairman of the dem
ocratic state committee, assisted by
the rest of the "Denver gang" whom
Senator Patterson admits are ballot
box suffers and forgers. By them
it was forced through the Legislature.
As was admitted on the floor Of the
house by Mr.. Lubers, the bill was
not intended to be in the interest OF
the people Of the state, but entire
ly in the interest of the democratic
party, and to try to make it impossi-
BILE for the republicans to carry the
next legislature.
The bill as framed practically cuts
out all the smaller counties OF the
state, whether republican or demo-
cratic from representation in the
legislature, and centers the control
of that body in the counties of Arap-
anoe, Teller, Las Animas and Lake,
which were supposed to be solidly
democratic. The stock and irriga-
ton interests are practically disfran-
chised in order to secure the elec'
ton of a democratic U. s. Senator.
Mr.3OConnell, of Clear Greek, him
self lifelong democrat, attempted
to oppose the bill and warn the dem
ocrats that the people of this state
would not stand such legislation but
was shut of from his remarks by an
arbitrary ruling of the speaker.
Everybody admits that our repre-
sentative did all that human power
could do to defeat the bill, but with
an overwhelming majority OF psrti-
sans mot representatives Of the peo'
ple) against him, and an unscrupu-
lous and partisan speaker in the
chair, the few republicans there were
unable to defeat the bill. So far did
the speaker go in usurpation OF pow
or that he even attempted to place
our representative under arrest in
order to bulldoze him into submis-
sion, but Mr.. Mclean kept up the
fight until the last ditrh.
Will the people of this state stand
this outragef No, that has already
been demonstrated by the people OF
Denver who on last Tuesday over
threw the gang, and are now prepar-
ing to send bunch Of them to the
penitentiary. The thing for the peo-
pie Of Prowers county and this dis
trict to do is to rise in their might
and help turn down this most dis
reputable gang of fusion corruption
lists, who ever tried to dominate the
affairs of any state, and make this
district as we'll as the whole state
republican at the election of 1902.

ber of several other parties to get
up on the fence and leave the dem
ocratic party and it's we'll known
leaders to take the blame The fol-
lowing extracts from his interview
will show what the newly made sem
ator thinks Of the party which elect
him:
~ don't for moment doubt that
the cause of Democratic defeat was,
coupled with the candidacy Of Mr..
johnson and his support by The
Post, intense dissatisfaction with
Democratic administration Of city
affairs. The council did many
things that were reprepensible. 1t
practically defeated the Denver,
Boulder and Northern railway, an
honest enterprise which was opposed
by one of the great local roads and
by the two light companies. The
former opposed it because it would
compete with it in passenger and
coal traffic from Denver with electric
power and light for one.third less
than the contract with the Lacombe
company calls for. These two cor
porations succeeded in controlling the
council to the defeat Of both these
important enterprises-enough almost
in itself to disgust the average dem
ocrat with local democratic rule.
Then, again, it was a democratic city
council that voted the electric fran
chise to the tramway company, for
which The News condemned both
the council and the mayor.
"But, worse than that, from the
standpoint of good morals and prop
er protection to life and property,
has been the management Of the po-
lice department. It has seemed as
though the city had been given over
at times to the tender mercy of the
criminal class. 1t is needless to
enumerate the short comings Of po.
lice management.
"Another potent factor in the de.
feat was the Democratic primaries.
By admissions Of Democratic leaders
themselves, in some of the wards the
conduct of them was scandalous
Men without local habitation were
gathered together and concentrated
in wards to defeat the probable choice
of democratic voters for aldermen,
aud, as a rule, the manipulators sue
ceeded. This created intense local
dissatisfaction, and in nearly every
ward good democrats, resenting the
outrage, worked to defeat the alder
manic candidates. It is hard to
comprehend why time and money
should be spent and chances of Jail
encountered merely to defeat some
and nominate other aldermanic can
didates It was because rival light
companies were in the field. The
efforts of the manipulators we're not
to nominate representatives demo-
cratic citizens of the wards, but to
nominate representatives of the one
light company or tne other.
"But the democratic party must
also be honest with the people. It
must give democrats chance to
nominate their own candidates. The
outrage of carrying primaries by i'm
portations from other wards and pre-
cincts must stop, and particularly
must the democratic party frown
down frauds upon the ballot box. I
regret to be compelled to admit that
much that is said about attempted
frauds for the democratic ticket on
Tuesday is true. Some of the things
done or attempted were fagrantly
wicked. No party can outrage a
city's sense of decency and continue
in power. The Denver public is pc
culiarly exacting and Independent
in that respect, and is to be COM

whereupon the shadows took unto them

that the Dayett house, within a stones

the Pritchard will case in Superior Court
at 1915 o'clock this morning and at
o'clock it was wrestling with the case.
Following the retirement Of the Jury
lawyers besieged the court with motions
which they had been compelled to with
hold for many days because OF the

EWING CASE SETTLED.
Settlement was announced in the case
of Luther w. Ewing and Sidney E. Ew-
ing VS.. Mayor and Council. The suit was
brought in 1895 to recover damages for
injuries received by Mrs. Ewing by fall
ing into a gutter opening in Ninth street
between Orange and Shipley. The plain
tiff was given verdict for $4,000 some
time ago, but the defense took the case
to the Supreme Court by which tribunal
the verdict was Overruled. 1t was in Su-
peror Court for trial again, but the city
concluded to settle. William S. Hilles
and Lilburne Chandler appeared for the
plaintiff.
In the cases Of Sallie A. Smith, former
ly May, assignee of George S. May, VS..
Samuel ID. Forbes, jury gave the plain
tiff verdicts on three mortgages Of 81, 500
each with interest from 1898.
Rules for writs Of possession in the
cases Of Anna G. Pennington vs. William
j. Green; Samuel Middletown VS.. Robert
Pyle and Samuel AIiddletown VS.. Susan
c. Moore, were made absolute. j. Frank
Bggs was appointed commissioner to

mony in the case Of Dougherty VS..
