Fortunately for Colorado's reputation,
Michigan has attracted the public
eye as horrible example of corrup-

in fact Newberry was stingy with his

own declaration it seated Newberry,
'The expenditures of such excessive

contrary to sound public policy.

the senate and dangerous to the per-

The Republican party in Colorado
has repeatedly either sold, or permit
ted to be sold, the highest honors in
the gift of the state.
The great fortunes which have con-
tended in the past for mastery of the
party in Colorado are united this
year in an endeavor to retain control
of the state government in order that
they may the more surely have the
great political honors which are to be
at stake two years from now as prizes
for the highgest bidder.

he had been in bad health for some

He was aged 72 years and had won

elsewhere in this paper appears what
