WASHINGTON. April q. 1902.

The past week In the Senate hiss
been characterized by O scathing ar
raignment OF the republican policy
In the Philippine Islands. During
the major portion Of three sessions
Senator Rawlins OF Utah delivered
q speech which set forth the aims
and intentions Of the administration
and pointed out how the franchises
and special concessions Of the Is
lands were 10 be farmed out 20 id
ministration favorites ut the expense
Of the Philippine people. On Fri
day and Saturday Senator Carmack
delivered O brilliant address espe-
cially noteworthy for It's demonstra-
tion Of the inconsistency OF the
President In condemning those who
have defended the rights Of the
Filipinos and It's denunciation Of
General Funston, whom he des-
cribed as the most valiant captain
that ever marshafled q dictionary
70 battle array, the mightiest Sam
SON that ever welded the iawbone
Of m ass IS q weopon Of war;. The
unqualified condemnation and the
accompanying bitter sarcasm Of the
Tennessee Senator produced their
effects on his opponents and there
are prospects that Senator Lodges
edict, LET the democrats do oil
the talking, will be defied and
that those senator's who viii soon
be compelled to 90 before their con-
stituents for reelection will insist
on making some reply 70 the charges
which have been made against their
spirit OF justice and Americanism.
-.
In almost entire support Of the
democratic position, has been the
testimony recently taken before the
Philippines committee, and finally
the news has come from Manila
that General Jacob Fl. Smith has i'd
United 70 the Court Marshall, be-
fore which he il being tried, that
ne gave orders TO Major Waller %
kill and burn and make Samar n
bowling wilderness and that ne es-
pecially ordered the killing Of all
Filipinos over ten years os age. AS
II to substantiate democratic claims
that the islands have been the scene
Of untold outrages, and that the pol
Icy OF the administration has been
20 suppress the facts, continually
augmented evidence has been pre-
scented ofthe use Of the water cure"
and other forms Of torture and on

during all this time no case has

feet cure. When given as soon
as the child becomes hoarse OF
even as soon as the croupy cough
appears, it will prevent the attack.
1t is pleasant to take, many chill

In 1895 lie was chosen Grand
High Priest. For years he has
been a member OF the Committee OF
Iurisdrudence for the Grand Chap
ter OF Colorado and for the Grand
Lodge OF Colorado. He is mem
ber of the Quortour Coronoti
Lodge OF London--the most ex-
elusive lodge in the world, and is
a 33d degree Mason, holding the
title OF Honorary Inspector Gen
eral.
Ii may well be imagined that all
this Mas onic honor has given Mr..
Peabody a large acquaintance and
many friends over the state. These
friends naturally have much CONN
dence IN his administrative ability
and would be pleased to see HIM
secure further honors at the hands
OF the people.
There isn't shadow OF doubt
that Mr.. Peabody is ably fitted for
the high position-in fact, far
better equipped for the administra
ton OF the state affairs than many
predecessors, and il the movement
for an out OF way Denver candi-
date continues to grow. Mayor
Peabody will undoubtedly be the
next governor of Colorado. -

coloRAoo's NEXT GOVERNOR.

lanes H. Peabody, the republi
can candidate for governor, was
born in Vermont in the year IS52.
After growing TO manhood, he
spent a year in Boston, and IN
1872 came to Colorado, locating
first in Pueblo. In 1875, twenty
seven years ago, he came to Canon
CITY, and has been a leading spirit
In this community ever since.
He is as much part OF this
community as one can well be. In
1873 he married Canon girl,
Frances Clelland, and he now has
a grown son and two nearly grown
daughters. a model family and
one that would certainly grace the
governors mansion in Denver.
Mr.. Peabody has been promi-
nent in business here for many
years. Years ago he was a mem
Der of the firm OF Clelland & Pea
body, doing a general merchandise
business of large volume. In 1883
he was one of the organizers of
the First National bank and was
its first vice president. Since 1894
he has been president and the
principal stockholder OF this insti-
tuition. He has been active in all
public enterprises and has assisted
materially in bringing the big
things to Canon that have given
the city it's large growth.
While MIR. Peabody has never
been an office seeking politician.
political honors are not unknown
to him. In 1854 he he was elect
ed county clerk of this county,
defeating Uncle John Wilson,
whom old timers had begun to
think had life time lease on the
place. He held this Office for two
terms. In city affairs he has serv-
ed two years as city treasurer, four
years as city clerk and two years
as alderman and in 1901 was elect
ed mayor of the city. This place
he still holds. There are a good
many other honors Canon and
Canon people have bestowed upon
the subject of this sketch, but
space forbids.
1t is in Masonry that Mr.. Pea
body's chief distinctions have
come. 1t is commonly said among
his friends that there is moth
ing more for him to look forward
to n Masonry. He has had it all
there being no worlds to conquer.
He has been very active in the
local orders, and has held almost
all :he offices in the various
lodges. 1t 1884 he was elected
Grand Master Mason of Colorado.
In 1883 he was elected Grand
Commander of knights Templar-

Solicitor Reports Adversely.

City Solicitor Duvall has submitted an
opinion to the District Commissioners on
the claim of Mrs. Lillian Lamb for the cam
collation. Of the tax sale of lot 212. Browns
subdivision of Mt. Pleasant A decision has
been heretofore rendered against the claim.
Il am unable to agree with the claim set
up" says Mr.. Duval, in his latest opinion,
that the District as trustee or agent of
the purchaser at said tax sale continues TO
have a lien on the property sold. AS I'M
derstand it the tax on the property has
been paid by the tax sale. but this question,
in my judgment does not arise in the case,
for Mrs Lamb is not a subsequent pur-
chaser within the meaning of the act of
Congress approved February q, 1873, as
amended May 13, 1892
THE certified statement in question was
issued July Is, 1889, and il was not issued
