DEMOCRATS CLAIM SENATOR
TELLER is LEGALLY ELECTED

Denver, Jan. 25.-Yesterday after
noon, at a joint meeting of the Demo-
cratic branch of the State Senate and
the Democratic members of the House,
Henry NJ. Teller received fifty-one
Democratic votes, a constitutional ma
jority of the Fourteenth General As
sembly of Colorado, If it shall be de-
cided that all the members voting were
legally entitled to their seats.
Governor Peabody has, so far, de-
clined to state whether he will sign
the certificate of election claimed by
Senator Teller.
He has not yet officially recognized
either branch of the divided Senate as
the legal Senate.
At 4:50 p. m. yesterday Michael J..
Madden was brought into the Senate
chamber from a sick bed by Sergeant
alarms Dooley and recorded as pres
ent.
The ballot for senator was at once
taken. amid hush which enabled the
weakest voice to be heard in all corn
ers of the room. When Madden's
name was called he hoarsely answered,
Teller" and the tense nerves Of the
assemblage gave way.
A tumult of applause rang through
the Senate chamber. The handicap
ping was so prolonged as to interrupt
Reading Clerk Cmith for several Sec
onds
Senator Mcclure received much ap-
plause when he voted for Teller, as
did also the only woman member of
the Legislature, Mrs. Ruble of the
House.
1t was $40 when William H. Adams,
president pro tenn. of the Senate, arose
to announce the vote. he said: Sen
ator Henry NJ. Teller having received
a majority of the votes of the members
elected to the Fourteenth General As
sembly, l hereby declare him elected
senator for the term in the United
States Senate beginning March 4. 1903 -
The announcement was received
with loud and long continued applause.
Senator Barela moved that COM
mittee Of three be appointed to escort
Senator Teller to the rostrum. Presi-
dent Adams appointed Senators Barela
and Ballinger, two of Senator Teller's
Oldest friends. and Mr.. Dinkel of the
House. The three shook hands with
Senator Teller and led him to the plat
form, where he received an ovation
from the people gathered in the cham
ber.
When the applause had subsidized Sem
ator Teller spoke, in part, as follows:
Gentlemen of the General Assem-
bly,: | confess to you that | haven't
words to express my thanks for your
zeal. your patience, your fidelity to me
as the candidate of the Democratic
party for the high position to which

state that had so honored me my best
efforts. If have failed to meet the ex-
pectations of the people. it has been
because of my lack of ability and not
because of my lack of desire.

that of six years ago, and it must

the most remarkable occurrences in
American politics. Six years ago l

paid, our public institutions must be
protected and our state credit pre-
served. Wicked and unforgivable as
is the wrong done the Republican par
ty, yet from the point of view of the
highest citizenship, there is but one
thing to be done. and that is for the
people to accept the deplorable situa-
tion. and for the governor of the state
to issue n certificate of election to Mr.
Teller. 1t is enough that we are dis
graced at home. The state needs the
help of our senators at Washington in
countless ways for the upbuilding of
Colorado, and we should not, If it can
be helped, throw doubts upon their
title to represent us.
The above is fair and true state
ment of the situation. Senator Teller
is in no sense a party to the frauds,
while he is the beneficiary of them He
has served Colorado for nearly gen.
Grafton at Washington, and whatever
may be our regret that he no longer
marches in the ranks of the party that
has so highly honored him, every citi-
zen of the state wishes him health and
strength. and believes that he is single
minded in his devotion to the material
interests of the state.

sense of personal disappointment, nor
do l cherish rancor towards anybody

Denver. Jan. 26.-Ex-Senator Ed
ward o. Wolcott has issued an address
TO the Republicans of Colorado in
which he comedies the reelection of
Senator Teller and lays the blame of
the Republican defeat to the action of
his opponents in the party.
Mr.. Wolcott says in part:
THE seed sown on the opening day
of the legislative session has borne its
certain fruit. The inevitable has hap
pened. and the conspiracy entered into
between a few Republicans and the
Democracy has brought the only result
possible, the election of Democratic
United States senator from Colorado.
The terms of the fusion or deal are un-
important; they will some day be fully
exposed. and the degradation and dis
honor that has come to the party in the
senatorial election indicate the heavy
price the Republican conspirators paid
for the coalition.
There were three joint sessions OF
the General Assembly. AT the last one
fifty-one Democrats voted for Mr.. Tel
ler No other joint sessions have been
held, and no Republican has voted in
any joint session. The election of Mr..
Teller is tinctured with fraud; first in
the tricSery of the adjournment by the
Democrats of the House; second. in the
arbitrary and fraudulent expulsion of
two legally elected senators. There is,
however, for the reasons given above.
now no other legally constituted Sem
ate, as there might have been but for
this conspiracy, and it Is now too late
to undo the wrong, and by unseating
the fraudulently elected members from
Arapahoe county insure the valid cleo
ton of a Republican senator.
"The welfare of the state requires
that there be no possible question or
doubt as to the legal status of the two
legislative bodies. Important laws are
to be passed, moneys must be lawfully
