WINS TOGA AT LAST.
SIMON cuooENHEIM TO BE sENA TOR FROM COLORADO.
After Walt Of Ten years and Expendl- ture of Over s1,oooooo Shelter Millionaire Will Enter Ma
 tional Congress.

Ten years of patient work, coupled with the expediture of g sum not less than than $1,OO0,O0O and perhaps great deal more, will result in the qualification of the ambition of Mul timillionaire Simon Guggenheim. The state legislature will elect him Unit ed States senator to succeed Thomas M Patterson.
 His election is absolutely assured notwithstanding the grumbling of some of the other candidates and the absence of President Roosevelt's in dorsement.
 Guggenheim is spoken of by his nemies as the "smelter trust senator, but his friends call him the savior of the party. Eleven years ago, when he came here, the party was in bad shape. Every county committee in the state has received his aid, It is expected that every Re publican county newspaper and many Democratic county newspapers will print editorials justifying Guggen' heim's election.
 Richard Broad, Guggenheim's man ager, has taken extraordinary precau. tions to prevent auy senatorial inves- tigation of the huge expenditure. MT. Broad is a great sportsman, and 1t is said he often has made wagers that some candidate he wanted elected would not be elected, giving odds of several hundred to one. He always lost such wagers, which were invaria- bly, in connection with the election of some member of the legislature.
 Former Senator Wolcott was the most formidable foe with which Gug- genheim had to contend, and his death opeAed up the way for Guggen- helm to the senate.
 Guggenheim never makes political speeches except by proxy. He never gives interviews on anything except mining or Colorado's great future.
Waterbury evening Democrat., 1907-01-07

His political opinions are an enigma so far as the public is concerned He and his manager have devoted their entire attention for years to the legis- lative ticket.
 Last year he gave to the state school of mines Guggenheim hall, cost ing s50,OO0. He always gives a news boys Christmas dinner. These, with his contributions, are the sum total of his claims on the toga. His friends, when asked why he should be chosen answered: Why, he saved the party in Colorado"
 Guggenheim is 39 years old. He came to Colorado in 1889, but it was not until II years ago that he moved from Pueblo to Denver and began lay ing his wires for the senate.
 In 1898 Guggenheim was nominated for governor of Colorado by the silver Republicans. He also had the indorse- ment of the Peoples party, but he declined, although he would have been elected. He made an effort to become a congressman, but the sen- ate was the prize he always has GOV eted.
 Guggenheim is one of seven broth CTS known as M. Guggenheim's Sons. They dominate the smelting business of the country and practically con. tro1 ftc cflvar ,,,,tp,,t and . .o--sl ble portion of the copper production. They own the Guggenheim Explora- tion company. which has developed immense mining properties in Mex. leo and the far west. and which has vast enterprise now under way for making the mineral wealth of Alaska accessible.
 Simon Guggenheim has been the western representative of the family fer nearly dozen years. He has a knowledge of the smelling business and Is regarded as one of the ablest mining experts in the country. So enormously has the wealth of the family multiplied in recent years that men familiar with the facts hesitate to say any figure. fearing to expose themselves to a charge of exaggera- tion. They assert that the combined wealth of the seven brothers runs into the hundreds of millions.
 The coming senator is next to inc youngest of the seven brothers. He was born in Philadelphia December 2s. 1867. He was educated in the pub lie schools of Philadelphia and grad uaied from its high school. and was then sent abroad by his father to pick up a knovledge of foreign lan- guages and the business methods of different European countries Mir. Gusrenheim reads. writes and speaks fuently French. Spanish and German
