which rendered 1t possible thereafter
for the voters Of Denver to express
their will at the polls and to have that
will publicity registered. and which
made it impossible for the Democratic
party. through its organized gang Of re-
peaters and ballot suffers to return as
many votes ns were necessary to over
come any Republican majority outside
OF the city. the Democratic party has
never forgiven the Supreme Court. BY
that action the Supreme Court truly
forfeited the confidence" OF the Dem
ocratic party; and that is the main rea-
son why the Democratic party In Its
platform this year is arraignins the Su-
preme Court as unworthy Of the conf
dence of the people OF Colorado.
The Patterson Contempt Case.
The third instance in which the Su-
preme Court has taken action which
displeased the Democratic party in gen,
eral, and ex-senator Patterson In par
ticular, was what is known as the Pat
terson contempt case. For long time,
In fact for a series Of years, Mr.. Pat
terson's newspapers had been abusing
the Supreme Court. The court had TAX
en- no notice OF this abuse. but finally
the outrage became SO flagrant that the
court was constrained to cite Mr.. Pat
terson for contempt Certain articles
had appeared In his newspapers charg-
Ing the court with corrupt conduct and
certain cartoons had been published
which were Of the most contemptuous
nature. In defense Of his action Mr..
Patterson impudently pleaded that the
charges OF corruption which he had
made were true, and declined to apollo
gize for either the articles or the car
toons. The court therefore adjudged
him guilty OF contempt and fined him
in the sum of one thousand dollars
The opinion of the court in this case
was written by Mr.. Justice Gunter. a
Democrat. who Joined with his Repub'
ncan associates In defense Of the honor
of the court. For thus upholding the
prerogatives OF the supreme legal trib'
unal of the state and for thus going
contrary to the will of the supreme die
tator Of the Democratic party Of Colo
rado, Justice Gunter was turned down
for the denomination by the Democratic
convention two years ago and In his
place was named friend and protege
Of the Western Federation Of Miners.
These are the three particular cases
treated by the Supreme Court within
the last four years in which political
questions have been involved. These
are the three cases on which rests the

performances. intimidated voters.
stuffed ballot boxes. voted gangs OF
repeaters. and committed many other
kinds OF frauds. The watchers ap-
pointed by the Supreme Court duly re-
ported these matters and the court
ordered the boxes from eleven pre-
cincts to be opened and examined In
It's presence. The result Of this exam
nation showed that In these eleven
precincts at least 1865 fraudulent bal
lots had been cast, and the returns from
these precincts were ordered by the
court to be thrown out of the count.
The exclusion of these precincts gave
to the Republicans majority In the
Legislature. and that body. upon its
convening. ordered further investiga-
ton into the methods pursued in that
election. which finally resulted in the
seating Of Republican governor.
The Supreme Court went further,
and after the frauds in the eleven pre-
cincts mentioned had been fully ex-
posed It sentenced a number Of the
perpetrators OF those frauds to various
terms In the county jail for contempt
Of court in violating orders which had
been previously issued by the court.
In this way the power Of what was
known ~ the big Mitt" was broken.
The court had demonstrated that the
state was able to enforce free and
fair election and to punish those who
had previously been accustomed to vio-
lating the election laws.
For this action of the Supreme Court.
