extension of the Denver & Rio Grande tracks to the camps in the 

 autumn of that year, and the resulting fortunes for Crede, the discov- 

 erer, and Moffat, his partner. A httle later, Francis Lynde pubhshed 

 in Scribner's Magazine^ which is to be distinguished from the earlier 

 Scribner's Monthly, a narrative description of "Cripple Creek" in 

 the issue for May, 1900, Vol. XXVII, pp. 603-616. And, finally, the 

 Colorado College Studies, General Series, No. 17, June, 1905, pp. 1-48, 

 presents a paper on "The Cripple Creek Strike of 1893," by B. M. 

 Rastall, v^ith an introduction by Professor T. K. Urdahl. 



On the monetary situation there are magazine articles without 

 number, only a few calhng for mention here. In September, 1893, 

 when the question of silver had come into existence, the Review 0} 

 Reviews presented a friendly account of "The Silver Situation in Col- 

 orado," Vol. VIII, pp. 276-280, by E. W. Bemis, of the University 

 of Chicago. The North American Review brought out in January, 

 1894, Vol. CLVIII, pp. 24-29, an article by the new Popuhst governor 

 of Colorado, Davis H. Waite, on "Are the Silver States Ruined?" 

 and in its next number, February, 1894, Vol. CLVIII, pp. 247-249, 

 allowed J. E. Leet to reply to Governor Waite with "Colorado's 

 Bright Outlook". The "Situation in Colorado" was again discussed 

 in May, 1896, in the Yale Review, Vol. V, pp. 50-57, by L. R. Ehrich, 

 who saw the manner in which gold production was gaining upon silver, 

 and changing the financial balance of the state. 



The struggle for women's suffrage in Colorado began long before 

 the admission of the state, but became successful only during the Pop- 

 uhst period in 1893. James H. LeRossignol, in the Annals 0} the 

 American Academy 0} Political and Social Science, Vol. XVIII, pp. 552- 

 556, has a brief article on "Woman's Suffrage and Municipal Pol- 

 itics," with a useful bibliography. Later, Ehzabeth McCracken 

 contributed to the Outlook, Vol. LXXV, pp. 737-744, November, 

 28, 1903, in her series "The Women of America," a distinctly witty 

 and unfriendly statement upon the workings of "Women's Suffrage 

 in Colorado, " which evoked from Mary G. Slocum, wife of the presi- 

 dent of Colorado College, an indignant, but dignified, refutation in 

 the Outlook, Vol. LXXV, pp. 997-1000, December 26, 1903. Women's
