The Law Stands.

The eight-hour law, passed by the last
Legislature, has had strenuous time OF
it since it was placed on the statute
books. Its constitutionality was ques-
toned from the outset and it was drag
ged through one court after another un-
til finally the Supreme Court of the
State decided that it was sound and
good.
1t was thought that the matter would
rest here, but the enemies of the law
persisted in their efforts to knock il out.
A week ago a Silver City mill-man was
arrested for working ten hours day,
and was found guilty before the justice
court. Having been beaten before all
the State courts. the attorneys decided
to bring the matter before the Federal
tribunals on writ of habeas corpus. 1t
was here that they met their Waterloo.
State Organizer Burns received tele-
gram from Carson this morning stating
that Judge Hawley had refused to con
slider the case. This throws the whole
subject matter outside the jurisdiction
Of the Federal courts, and as the Su-
preme court OF the State has already de-
clared the law constitutional there is no
escape for those who would question its
validity.-Va. Chronicle.

May Mean Civil Wdr
In State of Colorado

Denver, Colo, Nov. 17.-Accompa-
MED by armed guards Governor Pea
body and Governor-elect Adams pass
ed each other without speaking yester-
day morning in Lincoln avenue, and
this incident illustrates the dreadful
animosity, which has grown more Bit
ter since the election. Unless the su-
preme court shall decide that the Off
cial returns, which show 1850 major
ity for Adams, shall be accepted,
Governor Peabody will be in complete
control of the situation.
Il shall not withdraw" said Gov
ernor Peabody, unless | am convinced
Adams has been elected, and every
day brings to light so much fraud | am
more than ever convinced l am elect

Republicans and democrats alike ad-
nit that Peabody's retention of the
office will mean civil war in Colorado,
Denver, Colorado Springs and Pueblo
citizens would probably do nothing
more than complain loudly, but the
mining camps that are rapidly filling
up with Western Federation of Min
ers' members, would be certain to be-
come involved in the disorder. Well
informed Coloradoans say it is GER
tainty pitched battles would occur in
Victor. Cripple Creek, Telluride and
Ouray within less than ten days after
Peabody's Inauguration. Officers Of
the Western Federation of Miners in
bulletins instructing deported miners
to return assured the exiles they
would never be deported again. The
miners are armed and drilled in mill
tary tactics, ready for any emergency.

Beef Trust
Is In For 1t

Washington, Nov. LIT is becom-
ing evident that the administration
contemplates moving on what Is
known as the beef trust in a very
short time At the last session OF
congress a bill was introduced calling
on the Department Of Commerce and
Labor to make an examination into
the meat business Of the country, or,
in fact, to examine into the beef and
hog killing business as carried on by
large packing concerns, and to make
report to congress. This was the
effect of the measure. The father OF
the bill, a congressman from the
Northwest, was told that the depart
ment was created for this very pur.
pose and that its reports should be
made to the president, and the bill
was changed to this effect. All last
summer agents Of the department
were in Texas and in all the great
stock growing countries making in.
qaires as to prices and in and around
the packeries inquiring into the meth
DDS Of the packing concerns. Aftida'
Wits by the carloads connected with
the reports are now in the hands of
the department, and it is ready to
move. 1t is thought that the method
OF procedure will first be along the
line of publicity. Mr.. Garfield of the
department will probably commence
an open investigation during the pres
ent month at Chicago. He will there
be close to the parent houses Of the
packing concerns. He will place the
Armours, Swifts, Nelson's and others
of the large establishments on the
stand and have them Intercepted,
that every detail and all the ramifica-
tons and profits of the business may
be shown. The government will be
able to bring out everything it de-
sires, since its secret investigation
has given it absolute knowledge of
the business. 1t is thought that the
government will fully expose its hand,
since it will proceed by suit if pub
licity does not have the effect on the
concerns that it hopes to produce.
