  SA Parliament   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-09)
Colton was renowned for his administrative ability and it was largely due to this, as well as his good business sense, that led to his appointment as Commissioner for Public Works in the Strangways Ministry of 1868.
Colton yielded the Premiership to Boucaut in 1877 when a vote of no confidence in his ministry was passed after his perceived provocation of members of the Upper House.
Colton's strong social conscience and religious convictions influenced both his political and private life: he sponsored a Young Persons Protection Bill through Parliament and was a member of several social benefit organisations.

Colton's latest investigatory moves are an eerie echo of his earlier involvement in the King assassination case.
Among Colton's reasons for the ruling were that Ray could be prejudiced in the event that a real trial were held, and that Ray had an appeal pending before the state supreme court.
Perhaps Colton is sincere in his efforts to expose the truth behind the King assassination, and perhaps his decisions truly are guided by a desire to prevent prejudice in the event of a trial for Ray.

John Burt Colton, the youngest member of the Jayhawker party of 1849, was active for many years in maintaining the contacts of the Jayhawker survivors, and promoted numerous reunions of that group at various places.
Recently an interview with John Rogers was discovered in a copy of the Merced Star for April 26, 1894, the title of the article being "On the Plains, 1849." Apparently but one contemporaneous journal of the trip across the desert has survived.
Colton apparently kept every scrap of data which came to his hand, and it is fortunate that this magnificent collection of material has been preserved.
