government continued. Inasmuch as the war is happily ended, your memorialists are emboldened to ask the same aid of the general government which has hitherto been given to other territories. The necessity of such buildings is urgent, and the people of this territory, without assistance, will be unable to obtain them; wherefore, your memorialists pray that adequate appropriation may be made by congress for the erection of publiç buildings in the territory of Colorado.

Approved February 9th, A. D. 1866.
