Weary of Gun Government.
Truth is the people OF Colorado are
weary of being governed by guns and
want a re-etsablishment. of peace and
prosperity. His plan for compulsory ar
bitration of labor disputes will hardly
receive serious consideration, as it is an
tagonistic to the American idea OF free
dom of action and smacks too much of
the peon system which has already
wrecked Colorado industrially.
No one seems disposed to venture a
prediction as TO how long the extra
session will last. but none believe it
will adjourn under a month. During
Shafroth's administration. when the last
extra session was held. it required 45
DAYS to complete the business.
Members of the House and Senate will
receive no pay for this extra service. as
they are now paid salary OF $1,000 for
their two-year term Employment of
clerks, stenogrsphers, doorkeepers, mes
sengers. etc, will cost the state about
$500 per day.
1t is expected both the House and
Senate will appoint committees to in
vestigate the Ludlow massacre, impor-
tation of gunmen and machine guns and
other features of the industrial war
which has been on for the past eight
months

Second-To enact a law submitting TO

Chase's Life Saved by Strikers.
Following the outbreak at Louisville,
which was started by guards at the IIccla
mine, General Chase hurried there with
$50 troops from Canon City on a special
train. The train crew refused TO pull the
train into the town and the militia de-
trained two miles out. Strikers held
advantageous positions along the road,
which was reported to John McLcnnan
