Coal Miners at Rouse.

The great gathering Of 1000 coal
miners at Rouse had the desired effect
in bringing out the men who had been
at work there. Two hundred Of them
quit work Tuesday and it was stated
the others would quit the next day.
The great meeting was held as an
nounced. General Tarsney was the
chief speaker. He read letter from
Governor Waite. The letter stated
that the governor was not in favor Of
strikes but that there was NO excuse
for the mine companies not paying
the men promptly. He advised the
men to elect Populist legislature to
legislate in their interests.
A motion was carried that Manage,
KebleE of the Colorado Fuel and Iron
Company be requested by telegram to
close all the mines Of that company
until after general conference and
settlement OF all difficulties. In the
event Of his not complying, then the
entire body of men would march to
Sopris, take in all the mines on the
way and talk the men out.

Things Were Let Go Until Their Reli-
gion Was Settled.

In one of the valleys of the Smoky
mountains l came across squatter who
sat smoking his pipe on stump at the
door. The log cabin was wretched
affair, and the only crop in sight on the
land around was half an acre of corn
which had grown knee high and then
turned sickly yellow. The man was
ragged and had a starved look, and his
wife on the doorstep behind him seemed
still worse off. After the usual saluta-
tions and little general talk said.
