The paper was established in 1859 by Byers who was its editor during the period of the colony movement. It contains much information on the colonies. Its correspondent W. R. T. was W. R. Thomas. A complete file of the paper is preserved by the State Historical and Natural History Society in Denver.

The Daily Colorado Tribune.

INDEX

No attempt has been made to index all the matters re-
ferred to in this volume. Even where subjects are indexed refer-
ence has not been made, with some few exceptions, to the
financial records. The added biographical data, in the case of
certain important persons, have also been selected. The index
of persons connected with the Union Colony or Colorado is,
it is believed, complete for all sections of this work except the
Lists of Members. These, for obvious reasons, have not been
printed a second time here. Names and initials in brackets
have been supplied by the editor; those in parentheses are var-
iants upon the correct usage.
