The Truth About Colorado

BECAUSE various irresponsible per-
sons, In no way representing the real
spirit Of Colorado, have circulated state
ments defamatory to the credit of the
state and it's womanhood, we believe the
time has come when all such silly and
slanderous stories should be repudiated
by the intelligent and public-spirted men
Of the State Of, Colorado.
The demand for Colorado bonds is far
greater than the supply. In per capita
wealth. in expenditures for education, in
the percentage of homes without incum-
brance, in public improvements, in all
matters affecting social welfare and the
altruistic side of legislation, Colorado
stands well to the front, as may be easily
verified by the reports Of the United
States Government.
In an efforts that have served to for
ward the health and prosperity of the
state, the women Of Colorado have done
their share. The enfranchisement of
women is no longer question here
Equal suffrage was granted by popular
vote in 1893 and incorporated in the Con-
sttution ten years later by a majority
three times the size of that given the
original referendum.
