BITTER FIGHT IN COLORADO
Former Senator WOlOOtt Issues Appeal 70
tie Republican Members,
DEMOCRATS THREATEN TO RETALlATE
Will Unsent Republican In the Senate
for Every moor Unsented
by Republicans I'm
the House.

DENVER, Colo, Jan. 17.-Former United
States Senator Edward o. wolcott, who is
a candidate for the seat now held by Henry
NJ. Teller, has issued an appeal to the re-
publican members OF the house to unite and
expel seventeen democratic members whose
seats are contested. Otherwise, he declares,
a democrat will be elected senator.
A majority Of the seventeen members OF
the house who are supporting Wolcott have
signed an agreement that they will vote
first, last and all the time for him for
United States senator, and will not vote for
any other candidate.
Representative Frewen, the wolcott leader
in the house, has served an oral peremptory
notice on Chairman Breckenridge OF the
house committee on privileges and cleo
lions TO the effect that unless the commit
tee reports in favor Of arbitrarily unseatlng
all the democratic members from Arapahoe
county. and unless the vote on unseating
the fifteen members be made Jointly in
stead OF separately the wolcott men will
not vote to seat a single republican.
All the democratic senators but one have
pledged themselves to unseat a republican
senator for every democratic member of
the house unseated. man for man, so long
as republican senators remain upon whom
retaliation can be had.
Use of Kentucky Methods.
Concerning this proposed policy of re-
t~aliation MIR. Wolcott, in his address to the
republicans. says:
The threatened importation into the state
by the democrats of the bloody methods
which have forever blackened the good
name OF the state of Kentucky must not
swerve us. The patriotic republicans in
the state senate are loyal to their party
and they are able, backed by a republican
governor, to take care of themselves.
Many of the seventeen republican mem
bers of the house who are opposed to VOL
colts election are pledged to not vote for
him under any circumstances and will not
Join in a caucus for the purpose Of select
ing a senatorial candidate.
II the republican factions fail to get to-
gether Senator Teller will be reelected, or
a deadlock will result which may prevent
an election of senator at this session.
The house committee on elections will
make it's report on the contested seats next
Monday and 1t is the intention of the re-
publicans to have 1t acted upon by the
house on hat day, as the first ballot for
senator will be taken next Tuesday.

Men CIamor for Work.
In reply to this Mr.. Mitchell said.


I am not attempting, of course, to testify
as a witness in the matter. l I'm giving
the sources of my information in each case.
! do not say this for the purpose of placing
the responsibility on anybody else. The
fact of the matter Is, my would
indicate that 1t is impossible to move more
coal. The miners tell me the tracks are
mines. l want to say this, in connection
with 1t, that we have 5000 men who were
on strike that have been so far refused the
right to work. They are ready to mine
coal. There Is a shortage of coal in the
country and l believe that both the miners
and the operators are doing what they can
to get 1t out Of the mines, but they can at
least increase 1t to the extent of putting
our 5000 men at work, whom they agreed
to start to work when they submitted to
this commission and agreed to abide by
the decision of the commission.
We have waited patiently, since the re-
sumption, for our men to be placed back
given work. We do not want to and will
not cause trouble at the mines, but will
do all we can TO prevent II, but | want
the commission to understand that the men
who have been idle all this time are getting
impatient. They are writing every day
asking il something cannot be done TO
secure them work. They are charged, of
course, with being criminals. 1t Is alleged
they left their jobs, and all that, but If
they are going TO have a term of peace for
some years in the anthracite fields II seems
to me hey ought to stop lighting now and
any desire to punish men by the companies
ought TO cease. We are willing and anxious
coal fields and will do all we can to estab-
lish good relationship and we hope the coal
operators will meet US half way In doing
that.

CHANGES in GAME LAWS
HUNTERS CANNOT CHASE RABBITS
WITH FERRETs HEREAFTER.
Photographs Must BE Attached to All
Hunting Licenses-Further Restric.
tions on Railroad Companies.

Hunters and those who have no use for
hunters alike are trying to find out Just
what changes the recent General Assembly
made in the game laws of the State. There
are few subjects of legislation which at
tract more universal interest from all class
es Of people In the State. To any one un-
ent numerous game laws the solving of the
intricacies Of the bill passed by the defunct
Legislature is difficult task.
Deputy Attorney General c. c. Hadley
says that few important changes are made.
He has gone over the bill carefully and
has compared it line by line with the pres
ent statutes. He sets out the changes in
this manner:
Railroad companies are forbidden to car
~ wild grouse, wild duck or other water
fowl in addition to the kinds of game
which the statutes now say shall not be
transported.
Squirrels cannot be killed from Jan. to
Aug. I'm any one year.
Wild duck or other water fowl may be
hunted from Oct. 1 to Nov. 10 in any year,
provided the hunter is over fourteen years
of age. resident of the State and has Sc
cured a license from the proper authori-
ties by paying the fee of 81. nonresi-
dent may have the same privileges if he
addition fee of $25 for the special Ii
cense.
PHOTOGRAPHS ATTACHED.
To hunting licenses of every kind the
photograph of the possessor must be at
tached in addition TO a detailed description
of the person possessing it,
Hereafter it will be against the law to
hunt rabbits with ferrets. The new law
expressly prohibits the chasing OF bunny
with the sleek. bloodthirsty little beasts,
and a fine of from $40 to SIS is provided
Tor each violation of the law
determined effort was made in the de-
funct General Assembly to get through a
drastic quail law. In the Senate Mr.. Coats
fathered one placing the closed season at
hVe years 1t was amended to make the
closed season three years and after that
nobody ever heard of it again. In the House
Mr.. Lopp had a three-year bill, which
passed TO the Senate by big vote. 1t was
referred to the committee on rights and
privileges, of which Senator ICY" Powell,
of Logansport, himself a good sportsman
was chairman. 1t might as well have
been sent to the pyramids of Ghijeh or to
Pixies peak, for it was lost. The sentiment
against any such law was strong, and the
farmers were not able to show the wisdom
of SO long a closed season.
