ABSOLUTELY PURE
Strike at LeadvIlIe.

The situation at Leadvllle is I'M
changed. At 7o'clock yesterday
morning, Governor Mcintyre sent a
telegram OF instructions to General,
Brooks at Leadville. giving HIM full
power to act as his representative in
suppressing the riots of that CITY
Lieutenant Byran, attached to the
Governors staff. on being asked it the
orders gave General Brooks military
power sufficient to enforce martial
law, replied that it did practically
amount to martial law, although it
was not exactly that. rs -
To give General Brooks the full
support OF the en6ire State military
force Governor Mcintyre sent orders
to two Second Regiment companies
held in readiness, one at Lake CITY
and the other at Monta Vista. to pro.
coed at once to Leadville. This will
place at the Generals immediate dis.
posal S5C soldiers, including the Chat
fee Light Artillery with Calling guns
and several city troops of cavalry.
LEADvILLE, Sept. 23.-An attempt
was made, presumably by strikers or
sympathizers, just before dawn today
to destroy the Leadville water works,
located in California gulch. two miles
from town. A guard of thirty soldiers
had been stationed at the works.
Abont 5 o'clock the picketf saw a
flash on distant hill and supposed it
to have been signal. A little later
a sentry discerned forms crawling up
the hill. He hailed them and was
answered by shot. Several scatter
ing shots were exchanged. but the at
lacking party finding the guards wide
awake DIRE" off with no damage done
ON either side by the firing.
The town was declared under mar
tial law at 3 o'clock this afternoon by
General Brooks. ...-
Warrants have been issued for,
twenty five members of the Miners,
Union. including all the officers and
the Executive Committee. Three
men were landed in Jail.
The authorities refuse to say on
Just what grounds the warrants we're
sworn out, but say the action is taken
partly On information and partly on
suspicion. The prisoners are kept
closely under guard, and the Sheriff
will not allow them to be interviewed. :,

Corrupt and cerrupt,nr.

The New York World sent a mem.
Der Of It's staff to Wisconsin to study
the situation there. He writes that
IN his opinion Wisconsin will go for
Mckinley, because the Bryan COM
mittee is hampered by poverty and
cannot make a good canvass, while
@the Republicans have an enormous
campaign fund and a political ma
chine the like of which has never be-
fore been seen in, the State" The
World is against Bryan. and so ia the
correspondent, but he says:
@Ihe worst element in this cam
paign is the part which Mark Hanna's
fund is playing. Candor compels me
to give the facts without regard to
whether Mr.. Bryan's election would
be good thing or bad thing. There
ls plenty Of evidence in my opinion
to show that this is rapidly becoming
the most corrupt and corrupting
political struggle known to the
American people.

THE BOSSES AND M'KiNlEY.
Platt, Quay and Reed Plotting Against
the Ohio Man.

The Indications are unTlistakablc
that large majority OF the republic
ans of the west and south strongly
favor the nomination Of Mckinley.
Even in this state il will require al
the power Of the Platt machine ana
OF the governors patronage to pre-
vent the election of Mckinley dele
rates in some of the strongest rcpnD
lean districts. An attempt by Plau
TO throw the New York delegation as
unit against Mckinley. with Gov.
Morton out of the race, would surely
be futile. The Ohio leader represents
as nobody else does the policy OF high
protection, which is the republican
party's pivotal principle for the CON-
ing campaign.
Yet it is equally obvious that the
most powerful bosses in the party are
against Mckinley. They dislike INN
only less than they did Harrison.
Platt in New York, Quay in Pennsyi-
yania. Reed and his managers in New
| England and other of the most slillful
| politicians will defeat him IL they can.
IL is for this purpose that they have
instirated or encouraged the candi-
dacy OF various "favoritc sons hop
