"TOM” PATTERSON,
STATESMAN, LAWYER,
A JOURNALIST, DIES
DENVER, Col., July 24.—Former
U. S. Senator Thomas McDonald Pat
terson, statesman, lawyer anil jour
nalist, died here last night, aged 76
years.
The dead statesman was regarded
as the foremost citizen of Colorado
before his death. He was born in
Ireland in 1840, coming to the United
States at the age of four years with
his TThrents, Tie was' educated and
spent his earlier years in Indiana.
He located in Denver in the late ’60s,
and began the practices of law, quick
ly taking high rank at the bar. He
was elected delegate to congress from
Colorado territory, as a democrat, in
1874, and succeeded in securing the
admission of Colorado as a state, in
1876; was elected to congress in the
fall of that year, though the state
went republican, costing the deciding
electoral votes for Hayes against Til
den. He was also one of the demo
cratic candidates for United States
senator at the first election, but was
defeated. He was the democratic
nominee for governor in 1888, but
was again defeated. He was elected
United States senator as a democrat
in 1899, and served one term, declin
ing to be a candidate for re-election. :
He was a law partner of present
United States Senator Charles S. j
Thomas, and accumulated an immense |
fortune. In 1890 he purchased the
Denver Rocky Mountain News, morn-:
ing newspaper, and the Denver Times,
evening newspaper, and conducted I
both as editor and manager until j
about two years ago, adding more i
wealth to his millions. With the sale
of his daily newspapers he retired
from business of all kinds as he had
retired from politics ten years before.
He was rated as one of the ablest
mining lawyers and most convincing
orators of the west. As a young man
he was christened as the “Silver
Tongued Orator of the Rockies,” and
the name clung to him years. How
ever, he preferred its successor,
“Tom” Patterson, by which he was
known by oi l and young throughout
the later years of his life.
He was a man of simple tastes and
thoroughly detested life at the nation-1
| al capital with its social obligations,
| though he was a brilliant conversa- i
I tionalist and popular socially.
Senator Patterson visited Alaska in
[ 1903 with a committee of United
! States sena tors, which included Sena-;
'tors Dillingham, of Vermont; Burn-!
ham. of New Hampshire; Nelson, of!
Minnesota, and himself. The commis- j
sion visited all the principal points of
Alaska, making a trip along the coast,
down the Yukon river nad to Nome. ;
Hearings were held, and the testi- j
mony taken was p'rinted with the re-!
port of the committee. Senator Pat-!
terson differed with the other mem- j
hers of the committee, and in a sep-!
irate report recommended territorial j
.self-government for Alaska.
While in Alaska Senator Patterson
told friends that he would retire from j
■ill activities except those appertain-1
ing to his newspapers as soon as his ^
i term of office as Senator expired, as
he hated public life and its social ob
ligations. He .said that he preferred
j ne wspaper work to anything that he
, ever had engaged in.
V NCI ENT RUSSIAN CHURCH
RELICS GO TO JUNEAU
(Juneau Empire)
Relics of historic interest that date
b k to more than a third of a cen- ;
I fury before the termination of the
i Russian occupation of Alaska, were:
brought from Sitka by Rev. A. P.
Kashervaroff when he returned last j
Friday from the former capital of the |
i erritory, They consist of the crowns I
worn by brides and grooms at church
marriage ceremonies of the Orthodox
j Russian church and a cross worn by
! an archimandrite of the church. An
i archimandrite of the Russian church
| is a priest ranking next to a bishop,
corresponds to an archdeacon of the
Episcopal church of the United
i States.
The crowns of the bride and groom !
j are made of silver, gold and costly ]
satin, studded with hand-painted min-1
1 iatures of sacred Biblical characters—
the one for the groom containing a !
miniature of Christ as a central piece. J
They also contain settings of precious
stones. They have been worn by sev
: eral generations of bridal couples in
the cathedral at Sitka.
The cross is made of silver, sus
pended from a long gold neck chain,
and is set for its full six inches of
length with topazes andother precious
stones.
i Church records establish the fact
i that they have been in the cathedral
: for at least 78 years, and how much
longer no one knows,
j Father Kashevaroff brought the rel
ics to Juneau to have them repaired.
Later they will be returned to Sitka
i where they will be kept in the cathe
dral.
