TELLER COUNTY OFFICIALS
OBJECT TO CALL FOR TROOPS

Cripple Creek. Colo. Sept. 5.-The
Board OF County Commissioners In
session yesterday adopted resolutions
condcmnin. the action OF the governor.
The political complexion of the board is
Democratic. there being no Republican
member. and every mcmlsr was pres
cnt and authorized the following:
Whereas. the Board OF County Com
missioncrs OF Teller county. Colorado.
have been advised that the governor OF
the state Of Colorado has sent the MI
litin TO this county for the pretended
purpose of supprcss!nI riot that does
not. nor never did exist, and to protect
property and the individual rcsidc,ts
Il the county that are net In danger:
AID
Whereas. II has been falsely report
cd throughout the state that property
and life were In danger In Teller coun-
~.
Now. therefore. the Board OF coun-
ty Commissioners OF Teller county do
protest.
First. that property and individuals
are rs safe In this county Us elsewhere
in this s,atc.
Second. that the sheriff Of Teller
county is perfectly able TO handle the
situation here and has been authorized
by the board to employ any aud all
deputies necessary to protect property
and life. which. I'm the opinion Of the
board. he lis doing.
Rocky Ford enterprise., 1903-09-11

Third. that there has been no uu-
usual assembly Of men and no more
violence than Mt other times: that the
parties guilty of the late assault, will
he npprchcndcd by the civil authorities
and prosecuted. The state troops can
In no way aid In apprchcnains these
parties.
Fourth. that the governor of the
state. without cause therefor has sent
the militia TO this county and by 30
doing will enEcndcr III feeling. pro-
long the strike and do a great Injury
to the Cripple Greek mining district.
Fifth. that the citizens OF this eoun-
~ are iaw-nbidibI and are doing all In
their power to avoid trouble.
sixth. II Is the judsmcn; Of the
Board OF County Commissioners that
the commission sent by Governor Pea

strike situation was not sent for m
honest purpose. but as n cloak TO cause
the people OF the state of Colorado TO
believe that the law officers OF Teller

The complaint alcd against the CITY
and County OF Denver by Thomas j..
Maloncy. In which he asked u pcrcmp-
tory writ OF mandnmus ordering the de-
PENDANTS to furnish him record books
and supplies for the transeribins OF the
records OF old Arapahoe county.
came up for hearing September Ind.
before Judge Carpenter In the District
Court. A demurrer. filed by the City
and County OF Denver. was oycrrulcd.
and fifteen days were allowed the de-
PENDANTS to again dcmur to the COM
plant.
The demurrer stated that The COM
plant did not state facts sufficient to
support the cause of action. Tho con-
tract which was given to Maloncy by
Clerk Aichelc came under provision
of the Legislature passed at the same
time with Article NX. for the trans
cribing OF the old Arapahoc county
records. The contention of the coun-
ty attorney was that the Legislature
had not the right to legisla,e locally.
Judge Carpenter. however. held that
the sovereignty OF the people of the
stnte over the City and County OF
Denver was not abdicated by the
adoption of the home rule amendment.
The opinion holds that the effect Of
the amendment is not to give home
rule to the city and county TO the ex-
clusion OF state legislation. As n
county. II stands in no different rela-
tions to the state than any other coun-
ty. and is subject to the control and
authority of the state to the same eS-
tent as they. The fact that Denver
was established by the constitution
and the other counties by legislative
enactment. the court holds, makes alb
solutcly no difference.
