STATEMENT OF IDAHO SPRINGS
CITIZENS PROTECTIVE LEAGUE

Denver. Aug. 1.-The executive COM
mittee of the Idaho Springs Citizens
Protective League have made the fol-
lowing authorized statement:
THE action of the citizens of Idaho
Springs last Thursday night speaks for
Itself. The members of the union We're
given to understand from the first that
10 long as they were agitators of So
cialistic principles we would hold them
responsible should any damage be
done to any property in the district.
When men argue in public and private
that capital hasn't right to reason
able profit on the labor they employ,
and tell their followers that they have
been robbed of every dollar that their
employers make. it is little wonder
that the ignorant ones are inspired to
such daStardly deeds as that commit
ted at the Sun and Moon last Wednes-
day night. We have more sympathy
for the Italians touching the fuse that
destroyed the transformer house and
resulted in the death of ore of them,
than we have for the agitators who in
spired them to do it, The Italians
come to this country with little under
standing of the full meaning of repub-
lican liberty, and when Americans tell
them that their employers are robbers
and tyrants it is little wonder that it
makes anarchists of them. The people
of Idaho Springs had reached the limit
of endurance. This has never been
union stronghold, and our people he
lieve that they would rather give up
their homes and business than submit
to policies of tyranny which have
threatened our public and private in
stitutions and the lives of our citizens
for the past six months. The action
of last night shows that the people will
not submit to the dictation of : few
imported union agitators. Tkero may
be some people who believe that the
action was too radical, but for each of

The petition as submitted to Gov

Denver. Colo. July 81. 1908.
TO His EXcellency, the Governor of

the governor of this state and of the
whole people, have the power in your
hands to grant us that protection
which will secure us our rights as
American citizens

COLORED MEMS
RIOT AT BOSTON

Boston. Aug. IAN attempt by
half a dozen colored persons opposed
to Booker T. Washington, president of
Tuskegee Institute, to ask questions
at a meeting which he was addressing
Thursday night at the Zion Church,
almost resulted in a riot and twenty
five policemen were called to quell the
disturbance.
Several arrests were made. one po-
liceman received n deep stab from I
hat pin, while man. said to be one of
those opposed to Washington, received
several razor cuts and is now in the
hospital. After the arrests Mr. Wash
ington was allowed to proceed and
spoke for nearly two hours.
Both factions at the close of the
meeting issued statements. Mr.. Wash
ington said in his statement that the
colored people of Boston should not
be held responsible for a few riotous
individuals. and William Munroe Trot-
ter. one of those who was arrested,
stated that the cause of the rioting
was the absurd ruling of thee hartman,
Lewis, in ordering the arrest and ejec-
tion of any person who hissed or man
ifested any objection to the speaker.
1t is said that the disturbance was

Trotter and his friends admitted that
they went there with the idea of ask
ing Washington number of questions
and TO resent any attack that might
be made on the recent New England
representatives to the Afro-American
council at Louisville.
The meeting was held under the aus
pices of the Colored Business Mems
Association OF this city, and William
H. Lewis, one of the United States as
sistant district attorneys, presided.

these there are two others who believe
it was rot radical enough.
I'VE think that this settles the trou-
Bile in the Idaho Springs district. 1t
was only by the effort of the leaders
of the Citizens Protective League that
no bodily injury was done to the union
men and that they were permitted to
leave the town without personal in
jury. AS is well known. the indignc-
ton which has existed here has beel
so intense that Il word might have
caused the lynching of some OF the
parties implicated. We have fought
against this from the start, and the
union men can thank the Citizens
League that they were permitted to
leave the town unharmed.
THE union miners in the Cripple
Creek district established the prece-
dent few days ago when four inno-
cent Austrians seeking employment
were led from the town of Victor for
no cause whatever. In the light of that
action the Western Federation of Min
ers cannot consistently criticise what
was done here last night.
when the Sun and Moon resumed
operations we assured the manage
ment that we would protect them and
their property. The Citizens League
has used every means in its power to
prevent any disaster from occurring in
this district and we feel confident that
our vigilance has been the means OF
preventing the outrages until this
time. On the morning after the dyna-
hitting. the executive committee of this
body met and passed resolution that
we would furnish the funds to replace
the damaged property. In this man
ner we propose to carry into practical
effect our promise to protect all mem
bers of this organization against out
RACES perpetrated by anarchy. We look
upon the destruction of this property
as our loss, and not the loss of the
Sun and Moon Company.
