rade yesterday morning was the larg-
est that Denver has seen in many days

particularly noticeable. most of the un-
ions making special effort to appear at
their best. There was more care taken
in this respect this year than ever be-
fore. The parade was little late in
starting, but once started there were
no hitches The men for most part
marched four abreast and 1t took more
than an hour for the parade to pass
a given point.
The banner for the best appearing
union was awarded to the Painters and
Decorators. This banner is given by
the Daniels e. Fisher Stores Company
The silk banner for second prize. pre-
sented by John E. Miller, was awarded
to the Plasterers' Union. The judges,
Hugh Coyle, T. J. Foote and Frank J.
Cavanaugh, gave special mention to
the Typographical Union, the Allied
Printing Trades, Carpenters and Join
ers, Tile Settlers, job Pressmen, The
atrical Union, Bill Posters, Boiler
Makers, Book Binders, Blacksmiths,
Brewers, Stationary Engineers. Stone
cutters, Plumbers, Lathers, Electrical
Workers, Building Laborers Union,
Stone and Granite Cutters. Steam Fit
ters, Butchers, Tailors, Horseshoers,
Machinists, Roofers, RetsI Clerks and
Mattress Makers.
All of the unions made good appear
ances and altogether the parade was
the best that Denver has ever seen.
There were many features in the pa
rade, among them being the little boys

TELLER COUNTY OFFICIALS
OBJECT TO CALL FOR TROOPS

Cripple Creek, Colo. Sept. 5.-The
Board of County Commissioners in
session yesterday adopted resolutions
condemning the action of the governor.
The political complexion of the board is
Democratic, there being no Republican
member, and every member was pres
ent and authorized the following:
Whereas, the Board of County Com
missioners of Teller county. Colorado,
have been advised that the governor of
the state Of Colorado has sent the mi
litia to this county for the pretended
purpose of suppressing riot that does
not, nor never did exist, and to protect
property and the individual residents
of the county that are not in danger;
and
Whereas, it has been falsely report
ed throughout the state that property
and life were in danger in Teller coun-
ty.
Now, therefore, the Board of Coun
ty Commissioners of Teller county do
protest:
First, that property and individuals
are as safe in this county as elsewhere
in this state.
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 and all
deputies necessary to protect property
and life, which. in the opinion Of the
board, he is doing.

Telluride Mines All Closed.

Denver, Sept. 5.--A Republican dis
patch from Telluride last night says:
All the mines of the Telluride dis
trict are now closed. The Smusgler,
Union. and the Alta, closed to-day.
Shortly after midnight last night, tho
committees from the Federal Union
went up to the SmuGgler mine and
ordered the cooks and walters to quit
work after breakfast this morning.
The miners then walked out as indi-
viduals, not as a union, claiming they
had no place to board.
The carpenters are busy mailing up
the doors and windows of the Liberty
Bell and Nellie mills, which Is an in
dication of an extended shutdown.
The outgoing trains are crowded to
the platforms every day with miners
going elsewhere TO seek employment.

ed in New York 1t is the intention
OF the Times people to make use uf
the road by putting the papers aboard
the cars while the trains are still in

least it will have a very unusual sd
vantage over its contemporaries. Gu
riously enough, also, the railroad vii.

ADAIR WILSON NOMINATED
FOR SUPREME COURT JUSTICE

as these call for cool, deliberate anC
impartial judgment and action of the
masses of law-abiding. patriotic Citi-
Zens. Opinions hastily formed and acts
done under the impulse and pressure OF
great excitement rarely conduce 10
either the avoidance or settlement OF
troubles of this character.
We believe in the supremacy Of the
civil over the military authorities. and
we condemn the use of the military
arm of the government at any time, un-
less ii be demonstrated that the civil
authorities are unable to enforce law
and order.
After the people of this state had
succeeded. by reason of having Demo-
cratic Legislature, in placing upon the
statute books of the state of Colorado
a wise and efficient revenue act where
by the corporations of this state were
made to bear their just proportion OF
the taxation, and by doing so the insti
tutions of this state would be properly
protected by the appropriations which
were made for their use and benefit
but as the last Republican Board Of
Equalization did ignore the provisions
of said act. and did reduce the corpor
ate assessment of property in this
state to such an extent that there can
be no proper representation from this
state at the St. Louis Worlds Fair
and in such manner that the revenues
of this state will be short, whereby ev
cry institution will suffer from de
ticit.
we. therefore, condemn their action
in ignoring the Just provisions of the
revenue bill. and in allowing the cor
porations of this state to escape from
paying their just proportion of taxes,
and condemn their course in the non
performance of that duty as unworthy.
lunpatriotic and unjust to the great
mass of the people of this state.
The Democratic party is still unal-
terably in favor of the Legislature com
plying with the provisions of the con-
stitutional amendment passed last fall

CRIPPLE CREEK
TUNNEL OPENED

Cripple Creek. Colo, Sept. G.-The
main feature of to-days strike situa-
ton was the final completion of the
Ell PasO tunnel AT exactly three min
utes after II o'clock this morning wa
ter began to flow from the mouth of
the Big Four. Half an hour previous
the great whistle on the FL Paso be
gan to blow and it could be heard in
nearly every portion of the camp, and
many other mines helped to swell out
the noise.
There were probably fifty people at
the mouth of the tunnel, including two
armed Ell PasO mine guards, when the
water began to flow through the con-
duits. A large mass of debris of every
description came out ahead Of the
stream. The water was very muddy,
and it was estimated by the engineers
that the flow amounted to 1000 gal
Ions a minute. This soon found its
way to Cripple creek, and it soon
swelled that modest little stream to
fair-sized river. Only one bulkhead
has been taken out, and that is at the
Ell Paso shaft, which is 4,760 feet from
the mouth of the tunnel. The breast
of the tunnel, however, is now $3.50
feet, or nearly one mile from the
mouth. If all avenues of escape for the
water had been opened, it was feared
that some damage would be done to
the tunnel. 1t will be slowly regulated
and increased.
The drainage tunnel required about
seven months work, and when the
strike was declared few weeks ago,
nearly all the men employed on it quit
work. 1t was then nearly completed
The mine owners determined to finish
the work with non-union men and then
employed fifteen or twenty armed
guards to protect both the Ell Paso
mine shaft house as well as the drain
age tunnel, and at headquarters to-
night they are very iubilant over com
pletion of the work.
The Holly chieftain., 1903-09-11

Third, that there has been no un-
usual assembly of men and no more
violence than at other times; that the
parties guilty of the late assault will
be apprehended by the civil authorities
and prosecuted. The state troops can
in no way aid in apprehending these
parties.
Fourth. that the governor of the
state. without cause therefor has sent
the militia to this county and by SO
doing will ergender i'll feeling, pro-
long the strike and do a great injury
to the Cripple Creek mining district.
Fifth, that the citizens of this coun-
ty are law-abiding and are doing all in
their power to avoid trouble.
Sixth. it is the judgment of the
Board of County Commissioners that
the commission sent by Governor Pea
body to this county to Investigate the
strike situation was not sent for an
honest purpose, but as cloak to cause
the people of the state of Colorado to
believe that the law officers of Teller
county were unable to handle the strike
situation.
This statement is made because the
commission sent by the governor did
not make an honest and fair investiga
ton of the situation. The commission
reached here at $50 p. m. Thursday
and left at a. m. Friday, remaining
in Tie district less than eight hours"

ments would commence September 18th

tober 9th.

can presentation of the case are COM
prised in three volumes, making a total
of about 1,100 pages. In addition there
are also two volumes of maps. The
largest of the volumes of text contains
the original statement by the American
commissioners, while one of the small
er volumes presents the American
counter case in rejoinder to the British
case and the other arguments Of the
American commissioners.
