Teller County was named after United States Senator Henry M. Teller. Teller County was calved off of the western slope of Pikes Peak, then entirely within El Paso County, in 1899 after particularly brutal repression of a miners' strike by the El Paso County Sheriff's Department. The miners, organized in the early days of the populist labor movement, set up their own government with their own protection in the boomtown gold camp at Cripple Creek
