IDAHO SPRINGS EX|LES
Their Case May Bring on a Big
Crisi. in the Colorado La.
Dor Situation.
APPEAL TO THE GOVERNOR no USE
Says He Cannot Help Them Legally
Sheriff Deals in "Glittering
Generalities."

Denver, Aug. 4.-Governor Peabody
has answered the petition Of the Idaho
Springs Miners union asking protec.
tion from the state against the BAN
ishment- of the union miners by the
Alliance organization Of Idaho Springs;
also protection by military for them
in the event they return to their homes.
The governor says that the expelled
miners will have to seek redress
through the courts at Idaho Springs,
and that by the constitution and laws
of the state he is not vested with the
power or authority to act in the mat
ter.
Warning from the PrinterA
The Typographical union of this city
has adopted resolutions relative to the
labor situation here and at Idaho
Springs, in which a warning is given
the Citizens Alliance that if the action
of the Citizens Alliance at Idaho
Springs is TO be commended il is likely
to involve the whole state in a labor
war. and that if the fight is TO come
the IypOSrdpulcdl unlOH HOfeS IL may
begin at once. President J. G. Craig,
of the Citizens Alliance, Gays that
he believes that the action of the Citi-
zens' Alliance of Idaho Springs in ex-
pelling the union miners who were ac-
cused Of completely in the blowing up
of the Sun and Moon converter would
be commended. He expressed indigna-
ton at the action Of the Denver Typo
graphical union in adopting the reso-
lutiOns noted In the foregoing.
Approves the Idaho springs' Action.
1T is not the intention" said Craig,
''to drive any one out of Denver, but
in Idaho Springs the situation was
different, for these men and others had
been making threats for months, and
finally resorted to dynamite. / believe
the community not only saved consid-
erable expense, but also prevented the
sacrifice of many lives by their action,
and therefore it should be commend
ed"

The Alliance met later and indorsed
the action of the Citizens Protective
League Of Idaho Springs in expelling
from that city fourteen members of the
local miners union the day after the
blowing up with dynamite of the con-
verter house of the Sun and Moon
mine. Resolutions were adopted COM

Springs league aid the law officers of
Clear Creek county, which, while in
volying a technical deviation from. the
letter of the law, became nevertheless

The preamble of the resolutions
charges that within the organization
of the Western Federation of Miners
'there exists a secret, oath-bound
pledge to commit personal violence,
murder and destruction of property at
the behest and mandate of their lead
ers, who in turn are law unto them
selves and recognize no rights Of 9TH

control some of the most important in
terests of the state.r The resolutions
s<1nclude with an appeal to those in
authority to arrest and prosecute all
persons who unlawfully carry deadly
weapons concealed about their persons.
The meeting was held behind closed
doors, admission being by card, and
the Representatives of the press were
excluded. 1t was stated, however. by
officials of the Alliance that more than
700 members were in attendance. !,
A communication was received from
Sheriff Sandberg. of Idaho Springs. by
q committee of the miners who were
expelled from that town. In answer to
a letter srnt by them to the sheriff,
in which they notified him that Gov

ply to the local authorities for pro-
lection. Sheriff >Sandberg replies that
he intends to maintain law and order
in Clear Creek county without fear
or partiality to any persons or class.

There has been spent $415, ,588.69 In
the last six years at the institution In
specific appropriations to better the
physical condition of the place. but
to-day the water supply Is totally un-
satisfactory. TIE water r. received
from. two sources, viz, the Jefferson
Vile Water Supply Company. which is
Ohio River water. unfiltered, and the
other q well In the institution grounds.
DR.. Sharpe. the prison physician. has
this to say Of the water:
Prom an examination made by the
Secretary Of the State Board Of Health,
the well water shows no disease pro-
ducing bacteria, but contains such an
amount Of inorganic salts that 1t is
rendered practically worthless as a
steam-prod lcing agent, and being a
well water II is to be looked upon
with suspicion for drinking purposes,
In that the wells In this vicinity some
time during the year usually show con-
tamination.
"That the river water contains sew
eral forms OF bacteria, according to re-
ports heretofore made. is pointedly
borne out by clinical observation. since
that there has been scarcely time
during the time this water has been In
use for drinking purposes that we have
not had one or more cases of typhoid
fever: this not being the case prior
to it, me. Further, by the fact that

Big Sales Reported at the Planters Ware

Durham, N. c., Oct. 31.--On Friday last
Martin, Mangum & Winstead, Planters
Warehouse, Durham, N. c., sold their en-
tire break and a big one, too, at an
average of $1022 This is the biggest
average for big break that has been
made anywhere this whole season. But
for ten or twelve loads OF very common
tobacco, which was in this break, their
average would have exceeded zoe. They
sold lots OF piles OF fine wrappers at $50
large plies, too. Cutters are selling 4
good deal higher in Durham than they
have been, there being some large indr-
pendent orders placed there. In fact al
grades seemed to be in active demand
at the Planters Warehouse Friday. One

If it be true that Lee found Pickett
moved to tears-it was that the hrigades
whose support he expected were absent;
not that the gallant North Carolinians on
tie eft of his front line had not pene-
trated as far as their comrades on the
right, nor bad remained as long His bri-
gades were not sacrificed by any failure
of Archer's or of PettigreW's heroes. They
were no supports, but the line itself. Nor
was it the fault of any other regiment
or brigade; it was simply that Long
street did not give his other division COM
manders orders to move in, in conform
ity with General Lees directions. SO as
between Longstreet and himself, Lee, was
willing to take the blame.
Do not Judge Christian and the vfr-
ginians know these things?
If so. why do they still suggest that
