GOES AFTER GOVERNOR PEA
BODY IN DRASTIC STYLE.
HE SAWS THE GOVERNOR
is LAMEWORTHY.

WASHINGTON, June S.-President
Gompers, of the American Federation
Of Labor, Genounces ia vigorous terms
the action of the Colorado authorities
for their methods in dealing with the
labor troubles in that State. He says
that the governor is the one man
above all others responsible for the
reign of terror now prevailing in the
Cripple Creek district and character
ICES him as a fragrant ViOlator Of civil
laws and human rights. Governor
Peabody said Mr.. GomDers, has
done more by his acts to provoke Bit
terness than all other elements in Col
orado combined. II ne acts the out
law himself, the highest officer OF the
State, is the present unfortunate sit
uation surprising?'
AS for the recent dynamite outrage,
Mr.. Gonpers had only words of de-
nunciaton and said that ne could not
conceive that it was the work Of any
organized body OF men.
Il cannot believe that such an act
OF lawlessness was the result Of any
pre-arrarged plans of any body of
miners. 1t must have been an indi-
vidual act

We have refrained from saying
any thing concerning the remarks of
the Rev Compton concerning the
disfranchising of the negro, but as
thesDemocrats seem to be getting so
much comfort out of it, and all the
mere because the preacher says he
as Republi we want to offer the
suggestion that Rev. Compton has
4 been voting the Prohibition ticket
I for years and that the suggestion of
4 his being Republican is more to
b lend color to his remark than to give
weight to his observation.

dered in box car on the Coal & Coke

the position, and all knowing that any
opposition to him would be futile
Judge Mason has made a fine record
on the bench, being regarded one of
the States ablest jurists. His cleo
ton in November can be confidently
predicted, as the Republican majority
should be at least 5000 this year.
