Edward o. WOIcOtt. /.

In the death of Ex-senator Edward
o. Wolcott, Colorado has lost her great
est man.
No other Colorado man in the past or
at present can compare with him in
greatness as a lawyer, statesman, an
orator, politician or as leader of
men.
For twelve years he served his state
in the United States Senate and his
influence on national affairs was greater
than any other man Of the west.
In the middle of his first term he
took rank as one of the leading senator's,
and he was the pride of the senate and
the idol of his state. He did more to
give Colorado good standing in the
east than all the other senators and
representatives. we have had put to-
gether.
President Mckinley and President
Roosevelt both have referred to Mr..
Wolcott as the greatest orator of his
day, and both had the greatest respect
for his ability as statesman.
Had Mr.. Wolcott lived in one of the
eastern states, Massachusetts, Ohio,
Indiana or Illinois he would have been
promising presidential timber and
might today have been filling the place
of President Roosevelt.
The greatest trial of Er. Wolcott
came in 1898, and he was never greater.
His state, Colorado, had gone wild
on the silver question and deserted the
Republican party for Bryan. Most of
the politicians went with the crowd.
Teller did and was lauded as a hero. 1t
was the easy Thing to do.
But Mr.. Wolcott saw the mistake
and knowing that the country, the
state and even silver was better off in
the hands of the Republican party re-
mained true to his party and to Mr..
Mckinley, and that was the start and
cause of Mr.. Wolcott's later unpopu ar
ity in Colorado.
Only those who were here in '96,
Cañon City record., 1905-03-09

and perhaps better, those few who
supported Mr.. Mckinley in '96 can ap-
preciate the persecution heaped upon
Senator Wolcott then and for few
years after.
The walls of wrath were opened and
practically all the press and politicians
of the state directed the most insult
ing personal abuse at Senator Wolcott,
the only shining mark in the west. He
was dubbed the arch traitor of Colorado o
and few men Of his standing have been
so maligned for doing their duty as
they saw it.
Right as Senator Wolcott was, and
most OF the Republicans now concede
that, it is not strange that many of that
great majority-more than 80 per cent
OF the voters-who opposed his policy
in '96 continued to believe the false
things they had read of him during
the heated campaigns of 's8 and '9S.
But even with that sever fight his
popularity was soon restored in a great
measure, and no man ever drew the
crowds in Colorado that came to hear
Senator Wolcott whenever he was an
nounced.
He would have been elected United
States Senator in 1908 had he not been
stabbed in the house OF his friends
betrayed by two or three political ac-
cidents who had sworn their faithful
support-men who have no conception
of honor and whose names are not
worthy to be mentioned on the same
page with Wolcott.
And what a friend of his friends, In
all the political abuse you have heard
of Mr.. Wolcott did you ever hear it
charged that he had forgotten friend
or broken promise?
Never!
The charge was never made for no
man in American political life had
higher regard for his word or politi-
cal promise.
And no man in any lie ever stood

Thankful for Lent,

Many OF the ladies of Canon are
thankful that Lent has been ushered
in.
For ten days they have been work
ing two shifts keeping up society obli-
cations.
Now they will have forty days rest,
and they are thankful for that. Some
seem to think that Ash Wednesday
ought to be declared 4 special Thanks
giving day-to give thanks for the rest.
That's the way they talk
But watch them the week after
Easter. Already they are diminishing
to see who can get their Invitations
out first for the week after Easter.
And then for ten days they will be
playing Bridge, Five Hundred, and
other pasteboard games to beat the
band.
The people who feel really thankful
for Lent are the men, for they now
know when they will get their dinners
regularly for little while At least.

Plant Trees.

Ten years will see three fourths OF our
big cottonwoods gone. Age and decay
will necessitate their removal.
Without them the town will look
bare.
New trees should be planted in all
parts Of Canon.
Its the trees that give Canon its
chief charm. Without them Canon
would be little better than a mining
camp.
Let every body plant trees this
spring. They should be planted about
the first week in April. Plenty of time.
Look over your property and arrange
to plant few trees this year.

pride of the Fort Collins high school.
He belonged to a good family, a comfy
youth, boy people liked. they
said Azel would make success, and
he did. in a measure.
He married his school-boy sweet
heart, Jennie Lamb, the girl he had
played with from sunny, light-hearted
barefooted babyheod. They were happy.
And baby boy added to their Joy.
But Azel took to drink, and you know
the rest of the story. How he went
from drink to fast women, gambling
and forgery. How one bright, sunny
morning he murdered his faithful wife
in bed. How he went out in the yard
calling his nine-year-old son in from
play that he might also be killed and
laid beside his mother in that blood
stained bed. How he did all this that
he might the more fully enjoy his
escapades with woman of the world.

Y. N. c. A. BOYS TO

Sperry s. Packard Of Pueblo will be

director OF the Pueblo association, will
have charge OF camp athletics and rec

making political appointments he msy
have made mistskes-but he never
forgot his friends, and that was hi,
tower of strength.
In recent years few men have had
the opportunity Of knowing Wolcott-
the mamie has been so busy with big
things
But as man he was the most Iowa BILE
sor t-kind, gentle, strong and gener-
GUS. Many are the good deeds told of
him-of how he has given literally, how
he has helped young lawyers, railroad
men, reporters and laboring men, to
better things, and how he was always
the most liberal giver wherever occa-
sion arose.
As big man he was hardly appre-
ciated at home. AS q statesman and
orator he was known the world over
and as a nanipulator of great interests
he was better known in New York
than in Denver. While only the last
few years Of his life were devoted to
money making he had accumulated
fortune of two and half or three
million. He was a gigantic success in

The End of Azel Galhraith.

crime was discovered. while the bodiei
of his wife and son lay cold and stiff ir
his mountain home, he went on Twins
his life of worldly JOY and shame.
All this is story too we'll told in the
newspapers of the day.
But it is not bad story for the boys
to know.
Azel Gal braith's downfall came from
drink. Drink led him to gambling and
to women and it all led to murder and
to the gallows.
This is not far-of story, as from a
story book. 1t began in Fort Collins
where Azel and Jennie were children
together. His life of shame was led in
Denver. The tragedy occurred near
Central City, and the end was Monday
night, here in our own quiet town
within stones throw of our own
homes.
Yes, tears were shed, but not for
Galbraith. Tears were shed by loving
mothers that night in Canon City and
in Fort Collins over innocent, sleeping
boys from fear that they too might
grow up and take to drink and develop
the demon nature.
