AN INFAMY.
Men Discharged from Louisville Coal
Mines for Attempting to Save
Life.

Last week twelve men were discharged !.
from the Welsh Coal mine at Louisville
without notification or one days warn
ing Two of the men, Thomas Knight
and John Williamson, passed through
Denver this week on then way to Wash
ington territory, and a reporter for THE
ENQUIRER called upon<them to learn the
particuIar rs in the case, The facts are
aboutas follows: During the session of
the legislature the two men mentioned,
in connection with ten others circulated
petition in the Welsh mine to ask the
Legislature Re to pass the bill which pro-
vided for ventilation in tt he coal mines.
Nothing was said at the time by the
''bosses" in the mine, but D1emorandums
were made and spies set to work. Itwas
ascertained that some of\the men had
been members of the knights Of Labor
There was no assembly in Lomsville)
and this was marked down against them.
Last week one of the "bDsses," named
Welsh, discharged the twelve men, in
forming them that he had been instructed
50 to do by Superintendent Mcdonald,
who was conveniently absent from the
mine at the time. No reason was as
signed for this action, but it was said
that orders had been receiv I'D from head
quarters, at Omaha, to discharge those
particular men. The m EN- wrote to
Superintendent Clark, at Omaha and
asked the reason for,their discharge and
the only answer he gave was that he
wanted to cut down the force. No one
believes that was the reason, because if
| it had been there was no need to stipu-
late the twelve men who should be dis
charged
Thomas Knight had been prostrated
on a sick bed for several we eks and had
only worked one day when the order
came to discharge him. Ha has wife
and several children and as he could get
no otner work in the camp the blow
fell heavily upon them. The boys in
the mine made up acontribution for him
and leaving half of all the money he
had with his wife he was trying to get to
Washington territory to work when our
reporter called upon him in this city.
Such coWardIy, VillanOus work has be-
come common IN the mining and manu-
featuring towns Of the east, and if the
IaborerS OF Colorado do not organize and
beat down their OppresSOr8, the day will
soon dawn when workingrnan in this
state will not dare call his soul his own.
if he wishes bread for his wife and chill
dren. WorkIngmen Of Colorado be
warned by the fate of poor Tom Knight
and his brothers and band yourselves
closely together ready to battle with
your masters and Oppressors, and if nee
essary beat them down to where they
belong.

Secretary Lincoln, on being asked
whether he would follow Secretary
Chambers example, and declare eight
hours a legal da2's work in the United
State armories, ETC., said that at present
he did not feel disposed to ia ror paving
ten hours wages for eight hou urs labor"
Shame, shame on you Robert Lincoln
for such an utterance. You, the son of
that great good-hearted man, Abraham
Lincoln, whose name is loved and hon
Ored above all other names. You, the
child of the nations martyr: You, whom
the people have elevated beca use thew
remembered your father You, whom
the people so dearly loved because YOU
were the offspring of the man who broke
the shackles OF slavery, which gave life
and liberty to over four millions Of Deo-
pie. You, we repeat, must b urn and
blush as you read and learn Of the peo-
pies disappointment in you. Y ou have
been, weighed in the scales Of jus 8tice, and
alas, have been found wanting. Hence
forth you will be pitied instead of loyed,
and distrusted instead of hon nored.-

Contested.

The Republican of yesterday contained
the information that papers had been
filed by Henry MolIandin contesting the
election Of E. P. McPhilomy as alderman
from the Ninth ward. The contestant
makes several charges against Mr. Nc
PhiIomy-says he is not citizen of the
Unite d States or of the Ninth ward, and
charges fraud at the polls on election
day.
We have been unable to ascertain full
information in the case, but have been
informed that Mr.. McPhiIomy came to
this country when eight years of age, and
as his father was not a citizen, took out
naturalization papers several years ago
in Pennsylvania. He has lived long
enough time in the Ninth ward to be
eligible to the office, and as for fraud at
the polls we would suggest that NOLAN
din and his gang had better lay low on
that score, or they may get themselves
into serious trouble. Mr.. NcPhilOmy's
election was procured in an honorable
and legal way, and in that regard is a
strong opposite to the dirty work en-
gagged IN by other candidates. Let the
investigation 90 on.

Workingmen, you are beat at every
turn. Sharpers overreach and rob you,
doit while your eyes are wide open, and
laugh in your face and despise you.
Why2 Because you everIastingly sit
down for someone to help you, for wrongs
somehow to get righted, for something
to turn up. Things never do turn up Of
their own notion, and you can lay it to
heart as an immutable fact, that If you
do not spring to action and make things
more to the bent of your own welfare,
scheming men will twist them to your
eternal detriment.-Labor Herald.

THE NEW AoUEDUCT ROUTE.

The Aqueduct Commission yesterday gave an
additional hearing TO citizens who oppose the Hud-
son River route for the proposed aqueduct. Ford
ham Morris who represents several of the residents
questioned Chief Engineer Newton, of the Depart
ment of Pubic Works, at considerable length MIR.
Newton said that wherever the present aqueduct
was in rock tunnel il was still IN excellent condi-
ton. No repairs Of any extent had been necessary
OH this portion since it was constructed. Orlando
b. Potter said that the aqueduct should be at least
fifteen feet in diameter This would in the end
prove the cheapest as at a not remote time the city
would have to go beyond the CrOtOn Valley for an
additional supply. The large aqucduct could then
be used TO bring down supply from the upper
Hudson or from other localities. Large storage
reservoirs would soon have TO he built i'll the upper
part of the city, and these would be filled by the
large reservoir,

The NeeessIty Of CIty sewerage.

At the last meeting of the Board of
Health, among other business transact
ed, was the adoption of the following
preamble and resolution:
WHEREAS, Frequent complaints have
been made to the health officer and
members of the health board of the un-
healthy condition of the county jail and
Court House, by reason of defective ven
tilatiOn, plumbing and sewerage; and,
WHEREAS, The health officer and mem
beTs of the board of health have inspec-
ted said premises, and find an offensive
and unhealthy condition of the atmOs-
phere, calculated not only to infect those
who occupy the buildings, but endanger
persons who enter on temporary busi-
ness; and.
WHEREAS, The County Commissioners
have already been notified OF the unsan-
itaTy condition of said Jail and Court
House, and of the necessity of correct
ing the same, but have taken no steps
toward abating the nuisance complain
ed of; therefore,
RESOLVED, That the city health officer
serve immediate notice upon each mem
Der of the board of County Commission
erS, that If measures are not taken with
in ten days to correct said nuisance, the
board of health will proceed as in the
case of a private individual.
We have here a demonstration of the
necessity of general system of sewer
age for the city. How this nuisance,
now endangering the health and lives
Of community, is to be got rid of in any
other way, will puzzle skilled engi-
