Martial Law Off.

Denver. Feb. 2-The reign of the
military in Teller county. where mem
bers of the Western Federation of
Miners have been on strike for some
months is at an end. This was brought
about today by the issuance of proc
lamatlon by Governor Peabody revok-
ing his order for martial law. which
went into effect early in Decem ber.
In his proclamation the governor ex-
pressed the belief that the civil au-
assume charge of the affairs of the dis
trict and successfully cope with the
situation. In the Telluride district
the military will continue to rule, at
least for the present; but Gov. Pea
body expresses the belief that he will
be justified in suspending martial law
there in few days. During the day
the militiamen who have been acting
as guards at the different mines in
the Cripple Creek district and also
those who have been patrolling the
outlying sections, were ordered to
Camp Goldfield where they will re-
main until recalled from the district.
Municipal authorities Immediately
assumed their former duties and are
now in charge of the district.
As soon as the proclamation of the
governor went into effect, Col. Yer
deck berg, commander of the military
forces in Teller county, ordered all the
prisoners in the military camp remov-
ed to the county Jail and turned over
to the civil authorities which order
was carried o1t. District Judge Lewis
then called mp the cases pending
against these men and released some
of them ON bond and ordered the others
returned to the custody of the sheriff,
saying that he would heal the charges
against them in due time. Adjutant
General Bell and BriRadier General
Chase, who were formerly in COM
mand in the Cripple Creek district.
appeared in court today ready to an
swer charges pending against them
growing out of the military control
of the district. Judge Lewis an
nounced a day on which their cases
will be heard.

less attack ON William Jennings Bryan
may be taken as indication of his
mental workings. This is a sample {:
Already the republican Journals
are beginnin TO discover some good
i'll Mr.. Bryan. Presently we shall
find them heroizing him outright
Politics now, as ever, make strange
bedfellows.
Mr.. Bryan presence IN the for
eign capitals could only have been
officially known through the Ameri-
can embassies. He could only have
been officially recognized through the
interposition of the American ambas-
sadors, That they are under in
structions' goes without saying 1t
being the immediate interest of the
republican party TO magnify Mr. Bryan
here was a chance to make the hay
seeds believe him a devil of fellow,
equally in Europe and America. So
the word went forth in London, in
Paris, and in Rome. No less than in
hell for Satan, and Yubadam the man
from Nebraska is some pumpkins, as
the saying hath it; and upon his re-
turn this whilom anarchist becomes
in the republican press only second to
William Mckinley. 1t is no longer

1t is well known that Mr.. Waiter
sou retains an old-time fondness for
the flowing bowl, and it is possible
that he was laboring under an espec-
tally heavy load when he penned the
above. That is the most charitable
conclusion, as otherwise cne would be
forced to sit in Judgment ON a totter-
ing mind, once accounted one of the
most brilliant of the South. y
Mr.. Watterson likes neither Mr..
Cleveland nor Mr.. Bryan. In fact it
is difficult to determine which one
among the democratic cbieftains rises
tO tho bi,yI, lavo1 bo l,n. H..
ever, there are few that will be led
captive by his arraiSnment of Mr.
Bryan, whatever the general estimate
of Mr. Cleveland may be.
The latest object of Mr.. watterson's
ill-temper is W. r. Hearst. whose
youthful ambitions in the direction of
the presidency are rallied at and de-
rided and his claims in journalism
heavily discounted. Mr.. Watterson.
in his dotaee, seems unable to realize
that youth is coming and age is pass
ing. White hairs are not in them
selves evidences of superior wisdom
sometimes they are signs of mental
decay.
1t may be said that of all the pros
pective presidential nominees named
by democracy all are clean. honorable,
able men, capable of creditably fill
ing the high place. whether they meet
the approval of the Louisville editor
or not. Mr.. Bryan is undoubtedly
out of the running, though his infiu-
ence will be potent in determining the
real candidate. For the sake of a
united democracy it is to be hoped
that the Nebraska statesman will show
more loyalty to the party than did Mr..
Cleveland and his gold satellites. and
support the presidential candidate,
whoever he may be, unless he be a
person utterly Objectionable to decent
folk, which is not at all likely.

MORNING CROWD AT NICOLLET

-Oyler's Nishap Put Him Out Of the

Baseball fans Of Minneapolis to q man

team had won seven out Of nine games
played in the home series, ono OF them be-
ing eleventh inning incident with st.
Paul.
This morning the stands were filled with
rooters. who were preparing to do their
best to help out. Just before the game
Andy Oyler, while warming up, split his
right hand and was forced out Of the
game. Starnagle was put In to do the
shortstop stunt, and he did ft-with a ven
geance. He dropped popups and booted
grassoutters until the souls Of the bleach
critics exploded louder than cannon crack
ers In their wrath. starnagle did all that
could be expected Of a catcher in the posi-
tion, but the team was so thoroly disoH.
ganized that winning was out Of the Ques-
ton. Thomas was charged with hits
which should have been putouts, and, TAX
en- all In all. the game was about the most
griefsome exhibition which ever darkened
holiday. MoNichols contributed two glar-
ing errors. which will probably do much
to hasten his journey to the tall pines.
In the first inning Jones singled but
died at third, his team mates going out
behind him. Minneapolis was blanked In
the three order. Kelly led off with hit
in the second inning and Marcan forced
him out at second. Marcan attempted a
steal and went to third on a throw that
caught Starnagle wool gathering, and the
ball went to Sullivan. This did not prove
expensive. as the next two men UP were
downed.
The real trouble started in the fourth.
Three errors and four hits allowed Eve
Of the saints to reach home before Thorn
as could get the lid down. Minneapolis
struggled gamely thru, battling against
decentralization and Thomas pitched as q
man never pitched before. It was use
less. In the ninth Slag1e was downed and
Jones reached first when McNichols ran
out Of his position and attempted to field
| bunt that Starnagle was waiting for.
Jackson singled and Wheeler made a
drive that got away. Starnagle dropped
| O'Brien's fly and Kelly singled. This al
| lowed two more runs. In their half OF
the inning Minneapolis went out In order,
OF Minneapolis three hits "Buck"
Weaver drew two. He with Fox worked

was useless The teams are battling in
