Judge FTisner OF Logan, who is in
consultation with Gov. Hoadly, thinks
that the worst of the trouble in the
valley Is over. The governor LEFT
Logan at $3.50 u. m, for Il trip to the
principal mining towns, accom-
panied by Sheriff Mccarthy and
several others. Before leaving he tele-
graphed 70 all the points that he
wanted to meet the prominent miners
aud hear their side of the story. Al
all the stations large number of
miners were out TO meet the train and
at this place about dive hundred had
! cOngregated. The greatest interest
prevailed and the governor began
holding private consultations with
representative miners.

others who Were questioned deny

the militia ut this point, and claim e.

the hopper at mine No. Z, n short dis

conclude, however, after visiting all
the points, that the militia Is required
