| 1T is now foregone conclusion that
Gov. Peabody will be successful in
his contest for, the governorship OF
Colorado, but as to the validity of the
action of the Republican majority In
the legislature in seating him, public
opinion is OF course greatly divided.
The Investigation conducted by u
committee of seventeen representa-
tives and senators, aided by the $50
called Handwriting EXPERTS" re-
suited In report to the effect that
over 5000 fraudulent ballots had been
cast in Denver, In addition to the
voting of 5000 names that were purely
imaginery, according to rabid Repub-
lican testimony. AS to the merits of
the Peabody-Adams controversy, 1t
Is not possible at this time and at
this distance from the scene Of action
to arrive at n just conclusion. The
Democrats and Democratic news
papers. .eys.e.qpit iD adaIaRpciags the
Republican majority, and many Re-
publicans and independent Republi-
can newspapers do not hesitate to
openly declare their belief that Mr.
Adams was honestly elected. The
Reveille is still of the same opinion
as voiced in its columns few weeks
ago, i. e., that If Mr.. Peabody was
elected he should be seated, but if
not, and it is proven later that he
was Illegally seated, the party will
be overwhelmingly defeated at the
polls two years hence.-Rifle Reveille
(Rep.)
1t is significant in view of the wild
claims being made by wholesale
fraudulent ballots and, in some cases,
deliberately false statements ema-
mating from Republican Peabody
sources, that throughout the entire
investigation into the Denver election
there has not been one ballot not
proven to be an absolutely legal vote
when the number seal has been
broken. While, undoubtedly, fraud
has been committed, it was not in
any wholesale fashion justifying the
throwing out of entire Denver pre-
cincts. Day after day the incompe-
tency of the alleged handwriting ex-
perts is being shown. The fact that
large numbers of good ballots have
been thrown out as dishonest by these
experts" who afterwards explained
that they did SO as the handwriting
was of one person, but admitted that
they had not looked at the poll books
to see If these ballots could have
been written by the judges of election,
as is permissible by law, in assisting
illiterate voters. In each specific in
stance so far looked into this proved
to be the case. The question is, how
long are the people of the state going
to submit to such plain dangerous
farce?-Pueblo Star Journal

SOMETHING FOR THE LADIES.

Kitchen Cabinets.

The kitchen In half the homes, even

SIMPLE JOY.
L Feels Mighty Good to be Clear
Coffee AiIs

SOuS0 SAlISs
A Massachusetts, woman had been a
lifelong coffee drinker and was slow
to suspect that it was this habit that
was making her life miserable.
The knowledge came to her at last,
fortunately, before it was too late.
Il can now see" she writes, that
the use of the old kind Of coffee was
the cause Of my poor health, and before
going any further, / want to say that
Postum Food Coffee has done more
for me than all the different medicines
I took in the years I was ailing, for It
has made me we'll woman, while the
medicines always failed. I have been
drinking Postum for two years now,
and shall never give it up willingly.
"The first intimation Of breaking
health that / had was when my stom-
ach gave out; my digestion was so
impaired that I had no oppetite for
breakfast and but little for any other
meal. Then / became the victim OF
sleeplessness, and arose in the morn
ing tired and languid and utterly UNI
fit for the duties of the day before me.
I grew SO nervous that could not hold
NV pen, my flesh fell away and I be-
came painfully thin.
IT must acknowledge the help the
doctor gave me in finding out what was
really the matter with me. for after
vainly prescribing medicines, he sug-
gested that give UP coffee. l did so.
but with very little hope that it would
do any good had to have something
in the way of a hot table beverage and
fortunately hit upon Postum.
"Quite little time elapsed before
the coffee poison was worked out Of
INV system, but this was at last ac-
complished, and from that moment my
health improved in every way. Today
I am as healthy woman as can be
found. MY strength has returned, !
sleep beautifully. my digestion has been
completely restored, and enjoy a
good. hearty breakfast. with no distress
to follow it. My nervousness has dis
appeared and have taken on flesh SO
RAPIDLY that my friends tell me am
getting fat weigh more than ever
did before" Name given by Postom

ADJUSTMENTS.
Little Johnny Jones" Is Somewhat Of
a Disappointment MusicaIly.


a Disappointment MusicaIly.
George NJ. Cohan's Little Johnny
Jones" came to the Odeon Friday might
and played to a big audience. In many
ways the musical comedy that has
been such rage in the east is a sue
cess, but unsteady it is disappointing
Some of the music is tumeful, hut
there is sad lack OF good voices.
Not one good solo voice Is found In
the entire company, and this detracts
from what otherwise woul be a de-
lightful attraction. "Bobbie" Barry,
who emulates Mr.. Cohan in the title
role, is a clever dancer, but when it
comes to voice-well, don't mention it.
The best piece of comedy. and one that
is unique, is the quiet jag of the
unknown, as given by William Keough.
The piece is richly staged and COS
tuned, and the scenic effects are above
the ordinary. The scene OF st. Hur-
rah leaving the faarbor. was very pref
