coIorade,. Political situation.

From the Kansas City Star.
Outside spectators who have not
.familiarlzed themselves with the dis
.turbances leading to and attending the
recent election In Colorado are hardly
competent TO pass conclusive judgment
on the contest between. Governor Pea
body and his opponent IN the Cover
.norship race. II is quite evident that
there was fraud in the election, but
there is nothing to show that it was
confined to one party. On the face OF
the returns Governor Peabody was de-
feated by a large plurality and the
general belief Is that whatever the
frauds may have been, they were not
great enough to account for the pre-
ponderance Of votes in favor OF Adams.
The arbitrary procedure of the Re-
publicans In counting out Democrats
entitled TO seats In the Legislature on
the face OF the returns looks like a
deliberate preparation to retain Cow
ernor Peabody IA the Executive chair.
Having secured control OF the iegis-
lative body IN this way. It is now pro-
posed TO make the Democrats fight
for their claim.i In view OF these
high handed proceedings, II is very
gratifying TO know that a considerable
faction among the Republicans in the
Legislature Is opposed to the seating
Of Peabody. It Is possible that this
minority may save the Republicans OF
Colorado and the state from a great
political disgrace.

THE SECRETARY OF STATE.

THE Evening Journal has not deem
Il ed It wise to discuss the matter Of
the appointment Of a Secretary OF
state, being convinced that at the
proper time the Governor-elect Will
make the best selection possible. But
the following from Republican Glasses
in the Sunday Star strikes us as peril
nent:
Governor-elect Lea is a iudicious and
circumspect man. He declined to take
the nomination last October with a
string attached. He made no prom-
ises He refused to make promises.
Now he declines TO take a hand in the
contest AZ Dover. He is not yet Cow
ernor. He is a private citizen and
wisely exercises the privilege Of a pri-
vate citizen.
Now it is not our custom to boast,
yet we must call attention to the fact
that our voice was the FIRST and the
most insistont ina demanding that the
conditions under which it was pro-
posed to nominate Governor be wiped
out. we preached that doctrine until
it became plain that there was a nDni-
fest improperly in a candidate in Civ
ing such pledges Had they been re-
auired 81 the candidate Mr.. Lea would
have refused the nomination and would
not nov, be the Governor-elect.
It IS being said by certain Union Re-
publican leaders that there was an I'M
Outstanding that Union Republican
should be appointed Secretary OF
state. We have slfted this story and
nre positive that there isn't a word Of
truth In q We believe that MT Les
is just as free to appoint as secretar,
OF state the man Of his choice as h'
IS to select a clerk IN his bank.
Let It be understood, then, that wher
the man is named. we shall have on'
who best represents the new Governor
idea OF fitness and capacity. The du
ties OF this onicer are such that no
every Tom. Dick or Harry can be ap
pointed with advantage TO the Stat
or with credit to the administration.

THE WORM TURNS.

THOMAS w. LAWSON has held the
Il centre Of the stage for some
months. entertaining vast number Of
readers with his details Of 'Frenzied
Finance" Now he is being crowded
aside by other writer's who seem to
have certain interesting things to say
about Lawson.
We have just received a notice from
the editors OF Public Opinion" inform
ing us that that periodical will soon
publish series of articles bearing d.
rectly upon Mr.. Lawson, his financial
methods and an analysis OF his
'Frenzied Finance" articles. This may
be OF interest to the public. but we do
not see just in what way. Nobody
cares particularly about his financial
standing, or about his purpose in writ
ing the articles. What the public
wants to know and needs to know is
just how far has the. author OF "Fren-
zied Finance drawn a truthful picture
and what corrections need to be made
For the public knows enough tc
realize that in many respects th'
abuses which Mr.. Lawson sets forth
IN such dramatic form are true. We
know that thousands OF email inves.
tors have been neeccd annually. and
that there is fearful amount o.
gambling and juggling with othel
mems securities. Whether Mr. Law.
son has merely peaehed and given hi
pals away is aside from the issue
