[5] Adams was inaugurated on the 10th of January, having been elected
on the return of the vote, which had been notoriously corrupted in
Denver and elsewhere. The Republican legislature, after investigating
the election and upon receiving from Peabody a written promise that
he would resign in twenty-four hours, declared on the 16th of March
that Peabody was elected. His resignation on the 17th of March made
Lieutenant-Governor M'Donald governor of the state.

COLORADO RIVER, a stream in the south of the Argentine Republic. It has
its sources on the eastern slopes of the Andes in the lat. of the
Chilean volcano Tinguiririca (about 34 deg. 48' S.), and pursues a
general E.S.E. course to the Atlantic, where it discharges through
several channels of a delta extending from lat. 39 deg. 30' to 39 deg.
30' S. Its total length is about 620 m., of which about 200 m. from the
coast up to Pichemahuida is navigable for vessels of 7 ft. draft. It has
been usually described as being formed by the confluence of the Grande
and Barrancas, but as the latter is only a small stream compared with
the Grande it is better described as a tributary, and the Grande as a
part of the main river under another name. After leaving the vicinity of
the Andes the Colorado flows through a barren, arid territory and
receives no tributary of note except the Curaco, which has its sources
in the Pampa territory and is considered to be part of the ancient
outlet of the now closed lacustrine basin of southern Mendoza. The
bottom lands of the Colorado in its course across Patagonia are fertile
and wooded, but their area is too limited to support more than a small,
scattered population.

COLORADO RIVER, a stream in the south-west of the United States of
America, draining a part of the high and arid plateau between the Rocky
mountains and the Sierra Nevada in California. The light rainfall
scarcely suffices over much of the river's course to make good the loss
by evaporation from the waters drained from mountain snows at its
source. Its headwaters are known as the Green river, which rises in
north-west Wyoming and after a course of some 700 m. due south unites in
south-east Utah with the Grand river, flowing down from Colorado, to
form the main trunk of the Colorado proper. The Green cuts its way
through the Uinta mountains of Wyoming; then flowing
