The Denver News has one OF the
most untruthful cartoons over pub
lished by any newspaper. 1t purports
to show six years of peace and pros
perity under Democratic governors
and two years of strife and disorder
under Peabody with closed mills and
mines. Who closed the mines and
mills? The Western Federation of
Miners for whom Thos. NJ. Patterson
is attorney. Who is responsible for
the anarchy that has prevailed the
past eighteen months? The Western
Federation which is upheld BY the
News. Peace under Democratic gov
ernors. Yes, but the people are paying
for the peace that prevailed-peace
that permitted 'the miners to be in
peaceable possession of the mines
The News is certainly becoming more
and more unreliable every day when
it comes to characterizing the events
taking place in Colorado.
