The dastartlly and outrageous eff
forts of the Republican cohorts in
Denver to thwart the will of the peO-
pie Of Colorado as expressed by their
ballots is filling every fair minded
citizen with disgust, Republicans as
we'll as Democrats. The scheme to
count out Governor Adams, though,
seems to have proved too much of n
job, with his solid ten or twelve
Thousand plurality, and 1t Is now gen.
orally conceded that it cannot be
done, so they are devoting their eff
forts toward securing II majority of
the legislature. To this end
they will do anything to count out,
by bulldozing, enough Of the senators
elected by the Democrats to give
them majority on joint ballot, and
they will leave no stone unturned In
their endeavors to accomplish their
hellish design In the interest of their
corporation candidate for United
States senator, Mr.. Simon Guggen-
helm, the head Of the smelter trust.

"Buttin" Contest.
Saws the Ynmpa Lender :

Says the f0mpa Leader:
"a pet deer belonging to DIR. J. H.
Cole escaped from his pen Thursday
night and proceeded to celebrate In
high old style. He raped at the
doors Of peoples houses and when
the summons was answered at
tempted to enter. 8. X. Price who
had retired, was one of those awak-
ened and Mr.. Deer made things in
teresting In that house for II while.
He was strictly on the prod, and
when Attorney G. A. Morning start
ed after DIR. Cole, to get him to cap
ture the fellow, the deer attacked
him and an exciting struggle ensued.
Mr.. Morning grabbed it by the horns
and attempted to throw him, but he
quickly learned that the deer was
stronger than he supposed. Mr..
Morning was finally thrown on his
back, and only by holding fast to its
horns did he escape serious injury.
AS it was he sustained y cash on his
right thigh and numeroue bruises, to
say nothing of damaged clothing, and
il help had not arrived, would quickly
have become exhausted. Upon DIR.
Coles arrival a meat saw was used to
amputate the deer's horns, and he
was returned to captivity"

An exchange says: 1.-THE cattle
situation is In the hands of the pack
ers. They make the prices. They
claim that they are not making
money now-that the retail butcher
is the man who is getting all. This
may be true but one thing is certain /:
Judging from the retail price Of beef
someone is making money out of the
cattle business and 1t Ia not the pro-
Queer. II present prices continue 1t
will drive no many men out of the
cattle business that the packers will
find themselves short OIL raw mater
ial. Will they place themselves in
such u situation? 1 hardly think so.
1 give them credit for being men
with bra ms and I recken that they
are all familiar with the story of the
goose that laid the golden eggs.
Prices are bound to go up, but the
cattlemen are caught pretty hard
right now"

When Greek Meets Indian
the Former Makes Tracks

Chief Scalpeater, his squaw, and
Running Water, his son, together
with two other Indian maidens and a
buck, passed through Pueblo yester-
day enroute to the Apache reserva-
ton at Lumberton, n. NJ. The In
dians have been at the Worlds Fair,
but yesterday were released and sent
back to their reservation. They ar
rived on Santa Fee train No. 5 shortly
before noon and left on Denver & Rio
Grande train No. 1l5 at 1890 O'Clock
this morning. The red men were
gaudily attired in blankets Of the
''loudest" patterns. ChiefScalpeater
was very reticent and would not en-
ter conversation at all. He spoke
English only brokenly and his words
were interpreted with slang. Rum
ming Water, his son, who is q gradu
ate Of Lawrence university, Law
renee, Kas., speaks English almost
perfectly and explained that they
had been with the Indian exhibit at
the exposition, but did not like the
big Worlds Fair and were glad to
again be on the way to their reserva-
ton, where they could join their COM
rades.
A kodak flend attempted to photo
graph them rs they were in the wait
ing room ut the depot, but seeing the
motive they curled up together in
their large red blankets and hid their
faces 30 that he could not get their
picture. They seemed frightened
when the camera was pointed at
them.
A party of Greeks occupying five
chair cars also arrived yesterday
morning from Salt Lake, en- route to
Greeley, where they will work in the
