The legislature of Colorado has
declared Peabody governor and
ousted Adams, democrat, who
was elected on the face of the
returns by over 10000 majority.
Fraud was perpetrated on both
sides.a at the last election but it is
a question if Peabody, the re-
publican, should have been seat.
ed. Without being on the ground
or herring the evidence it is
pretty hard to fern an opinion
as to the merits of the case, but
from this distance it looks like a
steal. A deal was made where.
by Peabody was to resign as
soon as seated and this would
advance the lieutenant governor
to be governor.

ELECTRIC LIGHTS.

]. G. Robertson, of st. Paul
wants to put in an electric light
plant at this place and has sent 8
copy of a franchise to the town
board which he warts granted.
There are two things about the
proposed franchise that the
Courier is opposed to. One is
that he wants a 30 year franchise,
Our opinion is that this is too
long. 20 years would be long
enough. The other objection is
that Mr.. Robertson wants the
town to furnish him sufficient
water during the life of his fran.
chise. It seems to the Courier
as if he ought to look after his
own water supply just like any
other institution that comes to
Cooperstown to do business.
Plenty of water can be secured
If the plant is located in the pro-
per splace and whoever comes
here will be able to secure water
in abundance. However the
franchise will now go to the new
town board and will be q nice lit
tie initiatory nut for them to
rack.

GIVES THEM PAUSE
Thorpe Bill Worries Senators Who Ard
on Record


The senator's who defeated the Ward
Stone bill two years ago are somewhat
nervous over the disposition Of its suc-
cessor, the Thorpe bill, which is to be
taken up by the committee on railroads
Friday. This is the bill requiring rail-
road companies to get the consent Of
the railroad and warehouse commissions.
before raising the rates on any COM
modify. Two years ago it passed the
house by vote of 80 to rs, after hard
fight in which the house railroad COM
mittee opposed the bill. It was urged
by the members of the railroad COM
mission, who declared that such regula-
tion was necessary in order to give the
commission proper control Of the rate
question, and to prevent uncalled for
changes in rates.
In the senate the bill was referred to
the railroad committee March 2, and
April 9 the committee reported, recon-
mending the indefinite postponement Of
the bill. Senator Schain moved as q
substitute that the bill be placed on
general orders, and roll cali was de-.
manded. The motion lost, IA to 80.
Since that time it has been discovered
that there is a real demand for the
measure, and there has been some
change in the sentiment Of the senator's.
Mothers who have not changed their
views on the subject are thinking about
the record on which they will ask for
e-electiOn next year.

The house committee on elections had
a session on the primary election bills
last evening, and decided to report them
all in without recommendation, so they
will go on general orders and be con-
sidered by the whole house. One mo-
tion was made to indefinitely postpone
all the bills, and it was only lost by
a tie vote. The bills reported include
the Lund bill for a direct primary on
state officers, the Ole Peterson bill COM
bining the convention and the primary,
the Selb bill electing delegates at the

TO Loan to Farmers. ia
The senate in committee of the
whole today recommended two bills on
general orders for passage. III. F. '244,
by w. A. Nolan, bill authorizing the
formation Of corporations to lend money
on farm mortgages, was the subject OF
warm discussion. The bill provides. for
the inspection and regulation of these
companies by the public examiner.
Senator Wilson attacked this feature
of the bill on the ground that it placed
too much responsibility and detail work
on the public examiner. Senator Thomp-
son and others spoke favoring the bill,
stating that such corporations are
needed in the country. 49,.
