THE COLORADO SETTLEMENT.

The people of Colorado are to be
congratulated on the outcome of the
contest for the governorship. The
legislature has decided that Alva Ad-
ans. democrat, is entitled to the
seat the people gave him at the last
election. Thus a struggle that gave
promise of developing into a des-
perate war has been peacefully con-
cluded. Mr.. Adams was fairly and
honestly elected and he is to serve
as governor of Colorado for two
years beginning January 10.
There would be more satisfaction
in announcing the end of the con-
test If it could be truthfully said
that the republicans in the eleventh
hour of the conflict had come to a
realizing sense OF the dishonesty of
their course. This is not the case.
Adams is to be seated because the
republicans fell out among them
selves over the distribution of two
supreme judgeships- One faction an
nounced that 1t would vote with the
democrats and give them everything
unless it was conceded these places.
The other faction. considering the
judgeships of vastly more import
ance than the governorship, assented
to the plan. So Governor Peabody
appointed the men demanded by the
faction opposed to him, and immed-
lately thereafter all opposition to the
seating of Adams collapsed. A can
vass of the votes showed that he
had been elected by plurality of
nearly 10000 votes.
The figure cut by Peabody is not
at all creditable to that official
According to the dispatches, he
sulSed like spoiled child when he
was told that he would not be per-
mitted to steal the governorship. In
stead of taking the manly attitude

Peabody knows, as well as anybody.
that he was not elected governor of
Colorado last November. The sole
desire of this alleged champion of
law and order seems to have been
to continue himself in office.
But Governor Peabody's feelings
are not worth considering. The main
fact is that the struggle has ended
without bloodshed. Colorado is we'll

PEABODY AND PEACE.

In one of the most able editorials
ever published in a Colorado news
paper. the Pueblo Chieftain of Mon
day stated. among other things, the
following facts regarding the late
lamented governor. James II. Pea
body. and also said. in the heading
to the editorial. that "The People of
Colorado Demand Peace"
The overwhelming sentiment of
the people of Colorado is in favor
of dropping all forms of political
agitation and of directing their en-
ergies and interesting the minds of
outsiders in the development of our
wonderful resources and to the up
building of our state in every way.
The people are tired and sick and
disgusted with politics and with pol
iticians, and that political party will
fare the best in the future that fore
es an end to political strife.
Whatever blunders of policy or ad-
ministration attach to his term of
office can all be traced to the selfish
and piraticaI crowd that got around
him one year ago and that has
camped on his heels ever since. be-
cause of his strength with the large
business interests of the state, and
this crowd led him into all the pit
falls imaginable to serve their own
interests.
When the dinner was given to
Governor Peabody one year ago, the
Chieftain pointed out the folly of
the movement then inaugurated and
foretold the selfish schemes that
were being laid to use the governor.
and every prediction then made has
come true.
Every lickspittle nubbin that
wanted office, from congressman
down to constable, and that wanted
the support of THE Barrel" tied
himself to Peabody's coat tail, and
yelled Justify that every voter that
was against such nubbin was also
against the governor, and thus for
twelve months the governor has been
used as doormat by every political
adventurer and every political graft
er in the state.
His strength was used to prevent
an efficient organization of the par
ty: the money contributed for his
campaign was used to load down the
party tickets with men for import
ant Offices who were wholly unfit
for the places; his popularity was
compromised in a hundred ways to
serve the purposes of the pack of
wolves that surrounded him.
The vast sums of money contrib
uted for his nomination and election,
the enormous amounts raised since
election to seat him, have surely
enough been dissipated; but the gov
ernor does not seem to have derived
much benefit from the expenditures.
and their chief result has been to
precipitate disorder, confusion and
anarchy at home. and i'll fame. dis
grace and monetary injury abroad.
All of these things must be appar-
ent to Peabody, and 1t must also be
apparent to him that If the wolf
herd of grafters is permitted to con-
tinue their operations infinite harm
will be done to the state"

Denver, Jan. 1O.-(SpeciaI.)- AL
va Adams was inaugurated governor
of Colorado at noon today, the sem
ate and house meeting in joint ses-
sion for that purpose. The balance
of the state officers likewise took
their oath.
Governor Adams message was
by an executive in this state; but it
was strong in calling attention to
the Importance of questions concern
ing this state today, and recited the
gross extravaganza which had pre-
vailed. He shows that in the past
six years the expenses of this state
have been more than doubled. 'Let
us be just with the taxpayer" he
said, "befOre being generous with his
money"
Colorado is gaining n reputation
for high taxes and Iawlessness," he
added, "and adherence to the law is
the best cure for most of the evils
which infest the state"
He recommends an honest eight
hour law, compulsory arbitration
bill and likewise "a new election law
strong enough to hold the big cleo
tion thief as well as the small one.
He estimates that the political par
ties during the last election spent on
an average of So for every vote cast,
an astounding evidence of wholesale
corruption, and advocates the adop-
tion of measures to prevent the per-
petratiOn of this process.
In view of the recent supreme
court decision, u bill limiting the
power of the state canvassing board
is urged, for, according to this de-
petuate an administr alton Indefinite

Great enthusiasm was manifest up
on the governor concluding his mes
sage, and congratulations were show
cred upon him.
Governor Peabody had accompan-
led him to the senate chamber and
sat Mt desk while he was taking
the oath. AT the conclusion of the
ceremonies Peabody Immediately left
for the governors Office and vacated,
and upon the new executive arriving
there was not an Individual present
to greet him, not even the janitor
OF the building.
Much caustic comment has been
indulged in over the discourtesy of
Peabody and his crowd, and the af-
ternoon papers comment freely upon
it, the Times ironically remarking
that in the line of courtesy Peabody's
name might well be Maud.

low up his declaration OF contest
ing the office.

tered to Aiva Adams by Justice Cab
