COLORADO STATE AFFAIRS AND

Work of Pardoninr Board.

Bert Feenan, who was sentenced to
the peniten,iary from Arapahoe county
III september. 1902, for the reception
OF stolen goods. was pardoned on the
ith inst. by The state board of par
dons. Florence Thurman. who stole
the goods, was sent to the peniten-
tiary for the offense and served her
time OF one year. AS soon as she was
out she began to circulate the story
that Feenan was not TO blame. This
fact was presented to the board OF
pardons with such force that it de-
cided to pardon the man.
John Holman had his sentence COM
muted TO three years from ten. Evil
dence presented to the board showed
that Heiman was only partly respon-
sble for the crime charged up against
him, that of passing counterfeit mon
ey in Pueblo. He was accused of and
sentenced because of the passing OF 4
5O-cent counterfeit piece.
Pardon was refused by the board in
the cases of Otto Lehman, Joseph Par
~ and H. DeLovell, and the cases of
Spencer Dicks and John p. Black were
postponed for further investigation.

MINE OPERATORS DENOUNCE
THE FEDERATION OF MINERS

Cripple Creek, Colo, Sept. 9.-Last
night the following statement was
given out by the executive committee
of the Mine Owners and Operators
Association:
"Our mines will be opened as rapid
ly as men can be secured and our sue
cess in this direction has exceeded our
expectations, in fact. we anticipate lit
tie difficulty in securing a full compile
ment of men within a reasonable time.
If our old employees will not 90 to
work, we will secure men elsewhere.
We have Canvassed the situation care
fully and find that this will not be a
difficult task for our wage scale is
high and the hours OF labor short.
while the living and climatic cOndi-
tions of the Cripple Creek district are
better than in any other mining
camp, east or west.
1T is rcgrettable that things here
are as they are. and that few ire
sponsible agitators should be permit
ted to disturb the mutual good will
and harmony that has so long existed
between the Cripple Creek operators
and their employees. However, if the

Denver. Sept s-The Democratic
yesterday nominated Judge Adair VIII
son, formerly of La Plata. now of Dem
YER for the Supreme Court bench to
succeed Justice John Campbell. whose
term expires the coming year. His
principal opponent was John l. Null
lins of the Denver District Court. The
contest was close and spirited.
The following platform was adopted:
The Democracy of Colorado. in con-
rention assembled. reafiirms its allie
glance to the principles enunciated by
the last national Democratic conven-
ton. held in Kansas City.
The Democratic party is party OF
law and order. II believes in the su-
premasy of the law, and in its strict
and impartial enforcement. that the
rights of all be equally respected and
that justice be meted out alike to all
offeAlers, whether they be individuals
or corporations, the friendless poor
man or the financial magnate. There
should be no compromise with lawless-
ness, come from what source it may.
Upon this depends the good order and
well being of society. the safety of our
homes, the security of person And prop
erty, business prosperity and the full
enjoyment by the people of the privi-
leges guaranteed by federal and state
constitutions.
Entertaining these views, we hold
that the Judiciary is the most import
ant of all departments of the govern
ment aud that the Office of supreme
judge is the highest within the gift of
the people of the state.
I'VE deplOre the existence in sew
eral counties of the state, of differences
between employees and employers,
bringing about state of affairs which
is demoralizine to business and de-
structive of progress and prosperity.
We urge upon all good citizens to
counsel, as well as practice, modera-
ton. and do nothing to add fuel to the
flames of excitement. Occasions such

The complaint filed against the City
and County of Denver by Thomas J.
Maloney, in which he asked a peremp-
tory writ of mandamus ordering the de-
PENDANTS to furnish him record books
and supplies for the transcribing of the
records of old Arapahoe county,
came up for hearing September 2nd.
before Judge Carpenter in the District
Court A demurrer, filed by the City
and County of Denver, was overrued.
and fifteen days were allowed the de-
PENDANTS to again demur to the COM
plant.
The demurrer stated that the COM
plant did not state facts sufficient to
support the cause of action. The con-
tract which was given to MalOney by
Clerk Aichele came under a provision
of the Legislature passed at the same
time with Article Xxx, for the trans
cribing of the old Arapahoe county
records. The contention of the coun-
ty attorney was that the Legislature
had not the right to legislate locally.
Judge Carpenter, however, held that
the sovereignty of the people of the
state 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 a
county, it 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 eX-
tent as they. The fact that Denver
was established by the constitution
and the other counties by legislative
enactment. the court holds, makes alb
solutely no difference.
