WAITE WAS WRONG.
Tho Colorado Governor Had No Right TO
Calf Out Troops.

OHit oub lToOpbs
DENVER, Col, March 27.-There was
a large attendance at the rooms of the
supreme court Saturday to hear the
opinion of the court on the question
propounded by Gov. Waite involving
the validity of his acts growing out of
his removal of Orr and Martin as mem
bers of the fire and police board and
the appointment of Barnes and Mullins
in their stead. 1t was to seat the latter
that the governor called out the militia.
The unanimous opinion of the court
was adverse to the action of the gov
ernor in all things except that the
court recognized his right to remove
and appoint members of the board. 1t
was declared that his power ended
there, and that he could not induct his
appointees into office, and his employ
ment of the militia for this purpose
was greatly in error and unauthorized
by law.
A subcommittee of the committee of
safety, headed by Joel +. Vaile, waited
upon the governor in the evening and
discussed the situation with him fully.
Neither the governor nor the commit
teemen would divulge the results of
the interview, but it is known that the
committee advised the governor to abide
by the decision of the courts, advis-
ing him that another resort to arms
would not be tolerated. They assured
him that Orr and Martin would not at
tempt to delay decision by the courts
in a suit brought to decide who are en-
titled to the offices. The governor
would not promise that he would not
again attempt forcibly to seat the new
commissioners, but told the committee
he would carefully consider their sug-
gestions.
The governors chief counsel, Platte
Rogers, said proceedings would now be
brought in court to compel Orr and
Martin to show by what right they
hold seats in the fire and police board.
The committee of safety, already a
formidable organization, is, in effect, q
vigilance committee whose business it
| will be to attend to any individual OF
| faction responsible for any riotous pro-
| ceedings calculated to bring disgrace
upon the state.
DENVER, Col, March 27.-Judge Plat,
! Rogers, counsel for Gov. Waite in the
fire and police board controversy, an
| nounced positively Sunday night the
governor had given his promise not tc
call out the militia again to un
seat the removed commissioners
| Orr and Martin. The governor
refuses to be interviewed. The law
yers have hit upon a new schems fol
! installing Mullins and Barnes as fire
and police commissioners without wait
ing for decision of the court:
in quo warranto proceedings. VIVA
their plan is they would no
divulge, but it is proposed to carr,
it into effect early this week
AS preliminary, Mullins and Barne
will make written demand upon Or
and Martin to vacate under the opinion
of the supreme court that the case a
presented the former are legally en-
tltledto the office.
