The Glenwood post., 1905-02-25

Whatever the result oil the contest
may be, at the present writing it
seems to be in the air that a majority
of the assemblymen will be in favor
of seating Mr.. Peabody.
The weakness of Mr.. Adams defense
has been apparent to every one who
has followed the testimony His fail
ure to even attempt to disprove the
registration frauds, the voting of the
padded lists. the hiring of repeaters,
and their payment by Denver police
men. and others, at Democratic head
quarters, the failure to answer the
charge of crossing Republican ballots
fraudulently for Adams, the fact that
but ninety-eight witnesses identified
their ballots as genuine although
over 5000 were reported in the writing
of a few people. the silence as to the
hundreds upon hundreds of names
which Chairman Williams published
every day for over two weeks
of fictitious persons voted all
showed that so far as evidence was
concerned the Adams side was in
very bad way.
The failure to make any defense on
so many of these vital points was fol
lowed by desperate attempts on the
part of the Democratic press to create
false public sympathy and spread
the impression that public sentiment
was with the Adams side. This is far
from the truth. Everything that can
be construed as an indication of pub
! lie sentiment shows just the reverse.
The Mob.
The fact that an organized effort to
intimidate the Assembly in Mr. Adams
behalf was fostered, encouraged and
put in motion by Senator Patterson's S
interests, seconded by his new ally
Mr. Stevens of the Pueblo Chieftain,
is taken as ample proof of the weak
case.
| The preposterous idea that a deci
| sion favorable to Mr.. Adams could be
secured by the theatening attitude OF
a mob of Democratic enthusiasts at
| the state capitol could only find lodg-
ment in the minds of very erratic and
irresponsible people.
In the first place the Legislature
cannot be scared into doing anything
people of Colorado do not decide ques-
tions of this character by mob intlu-
| ence; and, last, every rational person
| in Colorado knows that it is the habit
of every small gathering of radical So
cialists. anarchists or militant parti-
sans to announce that they are the
people" They pass resolutions in the
name of the people, the Democratic
press pick up such mouthings and an
nounce in bold headlines that the peo-
! pie are stirred to revolution and will
rise en- masse, etc.
The Democratic organization OF
| workingmen that passed the resolu-
ton to march on the capitol for the
| purpose OF preventing the seating OF
Mr.. Peabody represent nobody but
themselves, those present. They do
| not represent the Democrats of the
| state, much less the entire people. Yet
| the Patterson class OF papers an
nounced it as an indication of public
| sentiment.
1t indicated nothing except that the
politicians who engineered the thing
and who induced the MoyerHaywo
combination to send out inflammatory
and incendiary circulars over the state
We're very foolish.

The Stephen eight-hour law is now
in the Senate and will undoubtedly
pass. The Democrats in the House
voted for it almost to a man.
The howl of the opposition press
that it is a farce and useless is to be
expected. No bill that could possibly
be passed by a Republican body would
meet with the approval of the bitter
partisan press of the other side. 1t is
a good bill and appears to be reason
ably satisfactory to all sides. No pro
tests have been received from either
side and it is believed that the law
when enacted will give general salts

changed by the next Assembly.
