The Post is the only paper on the
western slope with sufficient enter
prise to print Governor Peabodys
speech in full. Judging from the
hearty applause with which tn gov
ernor s remarks were greeted we feel
certain that those who were denied
the privilege of listening to the
words of governor who has given
the state industrial peace will read
with interest and pleasure his wise
and sensible statements upon the is.

Not q Political Campaign

My friends, this is not political
campaign, only in 30 far as politics is
interviewer with business it is a bus
iness man and woman's campaign,
one that affects every household in the
state of Colorado. The national po-
litical issues are being overlooked and
forgotten by the speakers, especially
upon the democratic side, because
they realize, as we do, that this au-
tumn the grandest majority that was
ever given a president since Lincoln
in which Colorado will join her five
electoral votes will be given that man
who is nearer the people than any
president We have had in years. Theo-
dore Roosevelt. Prolonged Applause. J
So, my friends,I say that the issues
before the people at this time are To-
cal, and are of a business nature

attention particularly to the morning
of June 8, when thirteen honest, law

who did not happen to belong to the
Western Federation of Miners, were
blown to atoms by dynamite placed
under the Independence depot plat
form. That is what this band of an

1t was to protect the citizens of Tel

consult what on earth they sh hould do
to be saved, what would he the next
outrage and what they should do to
protect themselves. The democratic
mayor of Victor called on the local
militia to protect the citizenship
against these outrages. and while they
were talking across the streets from
Union Hall, innumerable shots were
fired, killing two and wounding others.
Was that insurrection? Was it
time that the governor should come to
the relief of the citizenship (applause)

The worst thing l have said about
him during this campaign is that
during it he is in mighty bad compa
ny. When any man wants to reach
out and take Meyer by one hand and
take Haywood with the other hand
and goes before the people an asks
to be elected to office saying he will
bring about peace, it is no wonder
that myself, as we'll as thousands of
democrats ask to be excused.
Democratic Juggling
Now, another matter that these
democratic statesmen, speakers and
newspapers are parading before the
people of this state is the enormous
expense and extravaganza Of the Pea.
body administration. and they tell
you that farms will have to be mort
gagged to pay off this debt; they also
tell you in the same breath that sold
the militia to the mine and mill
owners, and that they would pay for
the militia. If true, how aie the
taxpayers going to be called upon to
pay itI | ask now if it is fair to make
these accusations, and if it is not done
to befog the public mind. That is
all it Is done for, and they know it.
| want to say that not soldier was
ever employed by the mill or mine
owners, and they were never paid by
them. The taxpayers will pay for
it, but it is as honorable and as law
full as any other similar obligation,
and, my friends. had it cost the peo-
pie five times as much. it would be
the best investment of public money
ever made in Colorado. But the
democrats say it has cost the people
vast amount of money. 1t has not
cost one million or two, but the en-
tire cost. including the commssary
and quartermaster stores, much of
which are now on hand. 1850, 900, and,
my friends. if that were called for
payment tomorrow night. and every
citizen had to pay his proportionate
share, it would be 81. 04. Is there any
citizen who will lie ewake tonight
wondering where in the world that
! 81. O4 is to come from; will he lie
awake thinking of his hungering wife
and children and mortgaging his farm
to cancel that debtr Not by any
means, and when Alva Adams tells
you that, it is for the purpose of be-
Jogging the real issues and when
they tell you the admi nistration has
been extravagant, they never itemize
the bill.

Rio Grande depot The Redstone
band played the Star Spangled Ban
ner" which was very appropriate to
the occasion, inasmuch as the banner
will proudly float another two years,
if Governor Peabody is elected, and
without being used to foment treason
and discord by ary organization.
Such a crowd as has not been seen
in Glenwood for months greeted the
governor at the opera house and the
hearty applause he received all
through his remarks dissipated any
doubt as to where Glenwood people
stand on the law and order question.
Clyde c. Dawson's s speech was Ie
plete with good things and in great
contrast with those of the democratic
orators which have beaped calumny
and ridicule upon the governor. Mr
Dawson was in good voice and re-
ceived plenty of cheering
The occasion was the greatest sue
cess of any meeting held this season
, and one which many we'll intentioned
democrats took advantage of to hear
the truth concerning the state issue
The party went to Aspen where they
will speak tonight, stopping at Car
bondale and other places along the
way.
Governor Peabody spoke as follows:
Mr.. Chairman, friends and fellow
% citizens of Glenwood Springs: 1t is
most charming signt TO see the bub-
bling over of enthusiasm and patriot
ism Of the people of this community,
when they leave their several homes
and occupations to ONE out at this
midday hour to hear the issues that
are being discussed before the people
of this state; it shows that our people
are not only alive to the situation
but are anxious to hear all that there
is concerning the welfare of this great
commonwealth l am not at all Il
stranger to the people of this locality
l have been here several times, and I
appreciate the courtesy manifested
by this assembly this afternoon.
1t had not been my purpose to ap-
pear before the people of Colorado at
any time during this campaign, and
but for the fact that the democratic
orators and newspapers were attempt
ing to befog the minds of the people
concerning the real issues, l should
not have appeared upon any platform
during this campaign, but, after all,
felt as on other occasions had an
official duty to perform. it was now
my duty and my place to go before
the people of this state and explain as
clearly as am able to and by the aid
of other speakers. the real issues be-
fore us for consideration.
