THE COLORADO LEGISLATURE AFTER FOOLING
AROUND AWHILE GETS DOWN TO BUSINESS
Consents to Counsel with the Older Members in the
Interests of Good Legislation An Interesting Letter
byF. A. hcCleland Touching on Local Matters

claring that they would never
never, never again enter a caucus
with Mr.. Adams and his friends
the boiling senators through a
comrade appointed to make the
negotiations, agreed to compro-
mise that gave Mr.. Adams what he
wanted. He secured control of the
two committees he had fought for
from the beginning, and he had "A
number of his friends named on
others. The truth is that the
Democrats were at loss how to
proceed without the assistance of
the senator. They could join with
the Republicans and protest
against any proposed action, but
no leader appeared in their ranks
who could hold them together and
force through matters of legisla-
ton, or fight on the floor of the
senate for some point that was de-
sired to be made. They needed
Mr.. Adams to lead them in any
aggressions. 1t was as much in
their own helplessness as for any
other reason that they returned to
the man from Conejos
Mr.. Adams is not the man to
punish those who have defed him,
at least not openly. AS long as
the Democrats remain faithful to
their promise of support and the
senator is just the man to keep
them in line there is not likely
to be any reference to their late
detection Such little matters as
punishment of the bad little boys
that have now promised to be good
is not a part of the leaders pro-
gram. He will be satisfied to have
the men keep their pledges and
aid him in shaping the Legislation
he believes to be necessary for the
welfare of the state
The overturned revolt is only
another instance of how strong is
the real leader of the senate. He
can originate and carry through
matters of legislation, he can re-
main the leading man throughout
a session. even through apparent
defeat.
Some matters of Importance to
Conejos county have appeared in
the house. Mr.. Wilder has pre-
sented bill for fish hatchery
that is designed to be built near
Antonito. This is likely to be
established as the author, in spite
of being with the minority, stands
as well with the majority as any
member of the latter. Being
recognized as man of earnestness
and being a hard worker for his
own people, he is likely to get
some recognition from the majority
when other members of his party
fail. He will be ably seconded by
Mr.. Garcia, who has been placed
upon the important committees in
order that his long service in the
body may be drawn upon by the
members who are newer to legis-
lative work. Someway the major
ity places importance upon his
natural shrewdness, and demand
that it shall be placed at their
service. In this way, Mr.. Garcia
is likely to be of vast service to
the people of his district. The
present Legislature has so few old
members in its makeup, that
those who are there, no matter
their party, are needed to keep the
newer ones from going astray in
matters of Legislative procedure.

inaugurating the new governor and
selecting a United States senator,
the Colorado legislature has at last
touched upon matters of legisla-
ton. Monday the house went in
to committee of the whole to dis
cuss bills on second reading, that
being the first venture at consider
ing matters of real legislation. 1t
was a starter, and that was all, for
the matters taken up were of small
interest.
So far this session the main
matter of any interest at all has
been the effort made to depose
Senator w. II. Adams from the
leadership of the majority of the
senate 1t was vain expenditure
Of energy, for the hold of Mr..
Adams upon Legislative matters is
in exact proportion TO his hold up
on the good graces of his people at
home and not to be broken. When
the senate convened Mr.. Adams
was chosen president protein, "A
recognition of his position as the
leading Democrat i'll the body.
Within few days coalition was
made by those Democrats, who,
following the leadership of 7 NJ.
Patterson. are disposed to hold
lightly the obligations OF party
fealty and party promises. The
matter on which this alliance was
made was in the selection of the
committees of the senate, impor-
tant because the committees have
vast influence in the moldiug of
legislation. The boiling Demo-
Gratis had another object in view,
which was the deposing of Senator
Adams from the leadership. and
the besto wing of that honor upon
Senator Tully Scott of Cripple
Creek Without moment S warn
ing the disgrunted mem bers of
Mr.. Adams party took the naming
of the COMMITTEES away from the
majority. Some places were given
to the friends of Mr. Adams, but
these were so few on each COM
mittee, that the whole was against
him and against any of the wishes
he might express. The conspira-
tors believed they had disposed of
him etfectually.
Which shows that they did not
know Mr. Adams thoroughly, and
did not give him credit for the
resourcefnlness that is n part of
his character and which has kept
him the most influential man in
the upper body of the Legislature.
even when his party had been in
the minority.
Mr. Adams set to work at once
to overcome the effect of the defec-
ton of the eight Pattersonians.
At first the latter declined to go
into caucus at all and then entered
conferences that We're without
binding effect upon any of those
who took part. They declared
that they We're afraid that Mr..
Adams did not intend to Loyalty !
support all the bills to be in
troduced in accordance with the
demands of the Democratic state
platform, and they would remain
aloof in spirit until they saw signs
of his coming to their support |
The real reason was that they were
afraid of the influence of Senator
Adams. They knew his reputa-
tion for never losing fight, and
they knew that he had, in Repub-
lican legislature, forced through |
more bills than any member of the
majority. So they fought shy"
of his caucus and kept as far away
from his mastering influence as
they could, fearing that he might,
by his persuasive manner, secure
their promises to return to his aid.

he could, and he finally took the ad-
