WASHINGTON, July 25.-The publication
Of J. II. Manley's letter to Colonel Gavitt,
in which he says he believes Blaine would
not reject the nomination, causes good
deal of stir among politicians here 1t is
understood that Manley and others of
Blaine's close friends visited Blaine here
about three months ago and told him they
wanted to know whether he would per-
NIT his friends to make him the candidate
of the party in 1892. He replied that in
view Of his position he could not be a can
didate for the nomination
Blaine Thought 1t Over.
They answered that they fully appreci-
ated that fact, but merely wanted to know
whether there would be any more letters
Of declination should he be nominated He
was silent for few minutes, and finally
replied that if his friends chose to nomi-
nate him, he could not prevent their doing
80. This was construed as an indirect as
surance that while he could not work for
a nomination he should not regret to have
his friends nominate him and he would
not decline. This is believed to be the
foundation for Manley's expression of the
belief that Blaine would not decline if
nominated. and also the foundation for
the activity among Blaine's friends since
that time

AS VIEWED BY THE MINERS.

The Recent Action Justified by an OBJ
server at the Front.
One who has been watching the course
of events says: mo one knows better
than these miners that they have violated
the law. but they also know that they
have the sympathy of The entire state and
of adjoining states, and financial assist
ance if needed While knowing they
have violated the law the miners feel that
they were sanctioned in their action by
pubic opinion. They looL at it in this
light: There are many laws printed in
the statute books of this state that are
never observed because they are unjust
and there are unwritten laws which are
observed because they are just and they
know it.
Laws Not ImpartisIly Enforced.
Among these is that opposing the con-
vict lease system, one they are now put
ting Into execution with a vengeance, and
law which is on the statute books, pro-
viding each mine with check weighman,
and this law is not enforced; hence the
men have no protection against mine own
ers who have a desire to rob them, and
they are not few. The non-enforeement
of his law is the original cause of all the
trouble, and it should be made felon Y
for every violation"
Rejoicing Over the Result.
When it was known in the city that the
trouble had been settled there was great
joicing Everybody was happy, and the
streets were filled with smiling faces.
Soon after dark the soldiers were release d
from their camp and went to work cele-
brating the return of peace.
