WANTS REPUBLICAN
SENATOR WARREN HOPES PARTY
WILL NOT LOSE WHAT 1T
GAINED IN COLORADO.
Wyomineite Quoted by Denver Paper
on His Recent Visit to That City
Colorado Is a Republican State
and Should Be Back in the Ranks
Where She Belongs"

Denver, Jan. 20.-The Republican
had this concerning Senator Warren's
views on the political situation in this
state:
United States Senator F. E. Warren
OF Wyoming reached Denver yester-
day, on his return from the national
convention of the wool growers and
live stock men at Kansas City. SEN
ator Warren wore a surprised air as
ne fought his way through the crowd
in the lobby of the Brown Palace no
tel.
What may be the of all this
excitement" he asked as he put his
name on the register. When informed
that he had happened in on the eve
Of the greatest struggle for the SEN
atorship the state has known, he took
in the situation at once. AS ; resident
and representative of another state, he
felt that it would be scarcely proper
for him to to give advice to
Co~loradoans.
However" said Senator Warren, 81
may be permitted to express the earn
est hope hat the republicans of Colo
RADIO will not throw away the fruits of
their recent victory. Colorado is a re-
publican state. and she should be back
longs. The people of the state signi-
fed at the last election their desire
for a republican administration. ana
elected a republican legislature, which
certainly means that they want a re-
publican to represent them in the
United States senate. 1t would be I'M
fortunate if their will, as SO eX-
pressed, should be c~ontroverted. eth

Vaccinations of the opposite party"
Senator Warren did not call at any
of the political headquarters IN the
hotel, but betrayed his interest by a
close perusal of the Sunday newspa-
per accounts of the situation. He will
be in the city for a day or two on legal
business, and is likely to be an inter
ested spectator of the proceedings at
the capitol. Senator Warren is a stall
wart republican, and, though he de-
clined to be quoted beyond his first
statement, it could be seer that his
sympathies were all with those who
are struggling to maintain republican
supremacy and send a republican to
the senate.
The senator was much pleased with
growers meetings at Kansas City. He
is OF the opinion that good will result
from the reconciliation between the
interests which have heretofore
clashed, and approves the %independ-
ent attitude taken by the cattlemen
relative to the packing house trust.
"The omnibus statehood bill, If a
vote could be taken today, would, in
my opinion, have a majority in the
senate" said Senator Warren. He
came to Kansas City direct from
Washington, and after the transaction

Cheyenne will hurry back to the cap
ital to participate in the important oc-
currences of the closing weeks of the
session. 81 think a majority of the
senators favor the admission of all the
territories, but our opponents will
probably be able to talk the bill to
