John F. Shafroth, who for eight
years has been congressman from
the northern district of Colorado, re-.
signed Monday because after an ex.
animation Of the ballots cast in the
lower Denver wards he was satisfied
his election was obtained by fraud,
and Robert Bonynge was seated. The
papers all unite in commanding the
the honesty Of Mr.. Shafroth in re-
signing when he knew his election
was secured by fraud, but what must
they think of Senator Teller. He
secured his election by exactly the

The new state republican club for.
mally opened its hand some quarters
in Denver on February II, Lincoln's
birthday, and in the evening the an
nual Lincoln banquet was given at
the Windsor hotel. Over 500 repub
licons from all parts Of the state
were present, and all spoke encour-
agingly of the political situation
throughout the state. The orators
in the evening were given an enthu-
siastic reception and the entire sen
timent Of the crowd was favorable to
the denomination of President Roos-
svelt, the attempt of key Stevens to
create an anti Roosevelt sentiment
among republicans having failed to
make any impI ession.

Over Trail to Denver

Las Animas special to News.
II have an offer from u responsible
stockman who is willing to contract
to trail cattle to Denver in punches
of 500 or more at SOC per head" an
nounced Secretary M. j. McMillin oi
the Bent and Prowers County Cattle
Growers Association, in session here
today.
This proposition was the result oi
the indignation expressed by the cat
tlemen over the service being rem
dered by the railroads in hauling the
stock from this station. 1t is claimed
that the service has become so bad
that with shrinkage and freight it is
now costing the shipper more thar
So per head to ship cattle to kansa,
City.
1t is only $50 miles across country
to Denver, and the fact that herds
were trailed up there last fall shows
that the plan is still practicable and
the saving in expense large.
The annual meeting of the associa.
ton was the best attended and most
enthusiastic ever held. Cattlemen fee
that time has come when they mus,
stand together for their rights.
A strong resolution was adopted
instructing the delegation to the con
vention Of the state association il
Denver next month, to bring the rail
road matter before the convention
and see if something cannot be done
1t was evident that the cattlemer
are in deadly earnest, and if there is
not prompt relief there is no question
that there will be general return tc
the trail next fall, with Denver the
market for all herds in this section
The matter of fighting the mango
diseased cattle was discussed, and j,
was decided to advocate general dip
ping again this year, as the dipping
last fall has been very successful, and
has nearly eliminated the disease
from the range in this section.

Tho Death Of Senator Hanna.

1t is almost exactly eight years ago
that suddenly an imposing figure, a
stalwart form, stepped into the
midst OF the leaders of the republi
can party, aud, instinctively recog.
nizing that they were in the pres
ence OF master, every one of the
old leaders Immediately began to
give place and make room. Un-
known beyond the boundary of Ohio,
except in business circles, that man
was Marcus A. Hama, the sad news
of whose death is conveyed to our
readers this morning.
Pictured by his enemies as hard
taskmaster, sordid, selfish and un
feeling, the people ultimately learn.

ed to recognize in him man OF tie
purest character and the highest i'm
pulses, leading an ideal home life
and possessing that gentleness and
tender sympathy which are best re
vealed when great strength and no
bility of mind are closely associated.
His friendship for President McKin-
ley, manifested through years of the
closest intimacy, was splendid
tribute to his own worth. II there
are those who would call him War
wick, they fail to appreciate the
greatness of Mr.. McKinley's charac
ter 1t was in reality grand and
inspiring friendship, in which Meth
er the one was tool nor the other a
courtier, revealing in Mr.. Hanna
alike the unseltishness of his nature
and his high appreciation OF those
qualities and abilities which gaye
President Mckinley distinguishes d
place among Americas great and
noble men.
Alike for the republican party and
for the nation Senator Hanna's death
involves great and irreparable loss;
for the one that its wi5est counselor
is gone, and for the other that
grand and noble citizen, gre at
statesman, has been compelled to
leave the work and lay aside the
duties which no other was so we'll
qualified to perform or discharge.
In these days of storm and stress, of
clashing arms and threatened war; he
nation has needed the cool judgment
the strong common sense and the
profound wisdom of the man who
has been called away. The party
suffers, because he was the one man
above all others who could stand be-
tween the conflicting forces of organ
lied labor and organized capital and
because he was known and trusted
by each, could lay his hands upon
them both and bid them be at peace.
But since il is in truth the good
that men do which lives after them,
let us hope that Senator Hanna's
life of splendid effort aud grand
achievement will contine to inspire
his countIymen to noble aims aud
great endeavor; and, although the
voice which always uttered words of
wisdom will be heard no more, let
us hope and pray that the senti
ments it awakened will continue to
live in the hearts of the nations
leaders, quickening to activity when
activity is needed, and e1erting
gentle but firm restraint when action
born of impulse would be unwise.-
