The GoVefnor Gives General Brooks Full
Power to Act
Denver Col, Sept, 23.-At o'clock this
morning Governor McIntire sent a tele-
gram of instruction to General Brooks
at Leadville, giving that officer full pow
er to act as his representative in sup
pressing the riot in that city and ds-
trict. General Brooks is specifically in
structed to permit no interference from
any source whatever, and to act with or
without the cooperation of the local au-
thorities. as he may deem wise. This
gives the military all the instructions
they need and practically places the
camp under martial law, so far as is re-
quired to compel the sheriff to do his
duty

What Ex'Lieut. -Gov. Fletcher Saws.

Ex-Lleutenant Governor II. A. Fletche,
of Proctorsville was asked his opinion OF
the prohibitory law by Harris Weekly.
His reply was:
g While | profess to believe in temper
ance and in prohibition, yet it seems to
me that existing conditions in this state,
relating to the liquor traffic, cannot be sat
isiactory to the friends of temperance
We do not need to be reminded by
Grover that conditions are more difficult
to contend with than theories While a
prohlbltory law does not stop the use of
and sale Of Intoxicating drinks to such an
extent as it would seem reasonable to
expect it would, has any other form Of
restraint been as efficient as prohibition !?
lhe recent action among hotel keepers in
our state would seem to indicate an opin-
ION upon their part that prohibition was
prohibiting to quite an extent | am dis
satisfied with so much in the present situa-
ton that | cannot give hearty indorse-
ment to law that allows such conditions.
l believe, however, that license law
would increase the number and size of the
evils that now surround US, and that faith
iul effort i'll the moral suasion line would
40 much to counteract those evils

Hurrah for Mckinley!

" Billee' Mckinley and the Mckinley bill''
Are the grist Wen grind in the Republican
mill,
Which soon will be running at the same old
stand
Where once we did business in a style that
was grand.
Prosperity now is well on its way,
TO cheer up the people who long for the
day
When labor and capital will stand fair
show
In competing with Europe, our implacable
foe.
Wen tax foreign goods that may come to our
Which will start up our mills and keep up
our hearts,
And long idle workmen will soon be
AT fair living wages which once they
enjoyed.
Well manage affairs in business like way
win gold or sound money our expenses
And instead Of increasing the debt that we
owe
Well reduce it each month and pay as we

Venezuela shall see and all the world know
That we stand by the doctrine of lamented
Monroe,
And if forced to fight with proud England's
hosts
Will scuttle her warships that come near
our coasts.
Then hurrah for Mckinley and welcome
good times
That will till empty pockets with dollars
And give every person-man, woman and
child
good happy home where plenty runs
wild.

Big Fire In St. Johnsbury.

s, A fire started from lamp in room at
The Avenue house in st. Johnsbury at 4 80
sunday and spread with great rapidity
throughout the hotel. Some guests barelv
escaped with their lives. T. C. Spencer.
Jeweler, was burned about the face and
hands IN escaping; G. D. Bagley, drug
glst, cut his hands in breaking the window
and coming down rope. The Avenue
house was burned to the ground in about
three hours. 1t was owned by B. G. Howe
and valued at $4,000; insured for
$4,000. H. L. Doyle, the landlord, had
no insurance and lost everything, includ-
ing his papers and personal property.
Doyle's loss was $500. The first floor
OF the Avenue house was rented to stores.
whose losses were not wholly covered.
BESIDES the stores there were about 20
tenements in the hotel. The guests, both
regular and transient, lost everything.
Lynch 4 Smith had restaurant and bill
lard parlor in the basement and were fully
insured for about $1,000. Adjoining the
hotel on the west was the Howe opera
mouse, owned by B. G. Howe, which cost
$50, 900. The fremen made desperate
effort to save this fine brick building, but
10 no purpose. 1t was insured for $4,000
a special train brought down 100 fremen
IRON Lyndonville at 8 o'clock. At II
O'Clock the fire was under control. The
opera house walls were all saved, also the
walls Of the small block north of the Ave-
nue. house.

Wasted Sympathy.
The Hardwick Gazette saws !:

The Hardwick Gazette SAYS:
Poor Bellows Falls TINES, advocating
the nomination of Mckinley for president
and that too because he represents the set
tied policy Of protection The TINES
should have the sympathy Of its contem-
porarIcs. 1t is to be feared that the posi-
bllItles of daily there have temporarily
turned its mind. Then, too, what is the
good of going to Ohio when New England
has such man as Thomas B. Reedo The
lines should come home, cease its wan
derings and fall into line
What is the use in going to Maine, when
one OF Nermonts own sons, Gov. Levi p.
Morton of New York, is an avowed candi-
date? If any candidate is to be supported
lor sectional reasons, Vermonters are
bound to stand by Morton. We are at a
loss to understand why so many Vermont
newspapers are worshipping at the shrine
OF the Maine man. Most of them admit
that Mckinley is the ADLER man, the great
apostle OF protection, the logical candidate.
Their sole argument is that Reed is a New
England man and hence it is a religious
duty TO stand up and be counted for him.
lie is one Of our folks and we will stand by
him. This argument has little force out
side OF Vermont, but here it falls to the
earth with sickening thud.
Vermont turning her back to the adj
vancement of one of her own sons is a
spectacle for the gods. Vermont editors,
at their best, we fear are a tickle lot. In
one breath they praise the valor, eloquence
and craftsmanship of Vermonters, sing of
their achievements at home and abroad ::
and IN the next pour adulations on the sons
OF other states, rendering them honors that
consistency requires should be given the
subjects of their eulogies. If Vermont is
to support man for sectional reasons
chiefly, Morton must be supported else the
state stands convicted of canting hypocrisy

Thinks Congress the Place for Him.

The Rutland Herald has started a little
boom for Judge Read Of Bellows Falls for
governor: Perhaps under all the circum-
stances his nomination would be impracti-
cal and, besides, it is by no means certain
that the Judge would care for it. The
Sitter begs to suggest that fitting and
more acceptable place for him would be in
the halls of congress. That he would fill
this position with credit to himself and with
honor to the district admits of no doubt,
neither does it admit of question that it is
time that a change was made in this direc-
ton. Some Of the people can stand to be
Grouted some of the time but all the people
will not stand that medicine all the time
1t is time for change and who better, to
make the change with, than Judge l.. NJ.
