ATTORNEY GENERAL MAY
QUASH MANY STRIKE CASES
ANNOUNCEMENT COMES DIRECT
FROM THE sTATEHoUSE.
Charges Against Lawson and La Veta
Miners Not to Be Included in List
of Those Cited for Dismissal.

1t was announced from the state
house early in the week that majority
of the eighty-four coal strike cases, IN,
volving about 400 union officials and
former strikers, pending in the courts
were to be dismissed at an early date,
Attorney General Fred Farrar Is sald
to have made the statement that the
case of John r. Lawson, now pending IN
the State Supreme Court, and the eisht
La veta miners recently released from
Walsenburg jail on bond, would not be
included in the order for dismissal.
1t is also said that Governor Carlson
has given to the attorney full power 70
decide which cases shall not go to trial
Il have taken this action" said Attor'
ney General Farrar, because so many IN
dictments have been found in the two
counties of Las Animas and Hueriano
that the counties are not able TO proceed
with the prosecution because OF financial
reasons. I also think it to the best in
terest of the state that the less ilagraht
cases be forgotten"
Up to date the state has been exceed
ingly unsuccessful in prosecuting the
strike cases. A recent decision OF the
Supreme Court ousting Sheriff jeff Farr
has thrown big clog into the wheels
of further prosecutions.

| " HE real battle for political SUI
| premacy in Colorado will open
next week when the state as
semblies of the three leading
parties are to be held in Denver. Har.
mony that is almost oppressive prevails
in the Democratic ranks, and state
ticket is expected to be named without
show of hostilities. Judge j. c. Gun
ter is scheduled to be named for gov
ernor without opposition, and former
State Senator Franklin Carringer like
wise for lieutenant governor. In the Re-
publican party quite the opposite situa-
tion exists. Governor Carlson, at the
end of year and half in office, finds
himself assailed from within his own
political camp He is charged with be-
ing failure and double-crosser. Sam
Nicholson of Leadville and Allison Stock
er of Denver are after Carlson's scalp,
and it looks as if all three would re-
ceive more than enough assembly votes
to be designated as approved candidates
in the primary election. Notwithstand-
ing statewide prohibition has been in
corporated in the state constitution and
is fixed law, Carson persists in max
ing this his one campaign issue, and
hopes to ride it on a return trip to the
statehouse. So far as the Progressives
are concerned, they are up in the clouds,
and no one has the nerve to prophesy as
to what they will do further than re-
fuse to endorse Carlson and Hughes.
There is strong sentiment among the
remnant of Bull Moosers to put a ticket
in the field and thus maintain the party
organization in Colorado.

Philosopher

gregatio church last Sunday morning.
He called attention to the lifelong friend
ship that had existed between the
Hoosier poet and the Rev. Myron Reed,
former pastor of that church and of the
Peoples church conducted in the Broad
way theater. For many years they were
almost daily companions in indianapolis
and at one time toured Scotland to-
gether. Riley dedicated to Reed his well
known poem entitled, "Our Kind of a
Man." and at the time of the Denver
minister's death wrote a tender tribute
to him, ''The Onward Trail" ''The two
men were very much alike" said DIR.
Tanner. Both were lovers of children
and of the common people. Both spoke
the simple language of the heart. Both
had an unutterable yearning for human
brotherhood. The common people heard
both gladly, and the scenes when Riley's
funeral occurred in Indianapolis were
very much like those when Reed was
buried in Denver. Here, as well as there,
it becomes us to perpetuate their spirit"

Miners stand on the prohibition ques-
ton" SAYS the Great Falls (Mont.l
the question was disposed of by the con-
vention held in that city last week. On
a roll call vote to approve a communi-
cation from the Brewery Workers Union
it stood &C for the vets, 81 for the drys
and 90 not voting, so that the affirma-
tive vote was less than a majority. The
fact that the metal miners divided upon
the question is significant of the rapid
advance made by the prohibition senti-
ment among workingmen in recent years.
Six years ago had a delegate limited that
he favored a prohibition law he would
most probably have been elected from
the hall. Yet this year it is more than
likely that had all the delegates voted
the majority would have favored the
drys. Arizona delegates, where prohibi-
ton became effective at the same time
the dry wave struck Colorado, were
emphatically in favor OF the Federation
going on record in favor of prohibition,
saving the law ousting saloons had great
" improved the condition of miners and
the people generally in that state. There
fore when metal miners begin to favor
the dry system of living, as indicated by
the vote in Great Falls, the forlorn hope
of the saloonkeeper and whisky manu-
facturer receives a solar pleXus.
