Col. treator, the man who ordered lams to be hanged by the thumbs a few weeks ago has been re-elected by h't3 regiment and thus is his act approved by the militia of Pennsylvania, Now can you read the signs of the times or is such a dastardly act unworthy of notice in a republican form of Colorado is solid for tho People's T.srty, Have you studied the People's Party platform? Do yon know that it advocates nothing visionary or new? Do you oppose it? If so, why? Have you ever read the platform and learned the reason and fundamental law upon which it is based? Do you not know that the principal plank of it the financial plank is supported by a decision of the Supremo court of the United States and that any person or party who opposes it is simply saying that that highest tribunal of equity and justice did wrong and virtually lied when it said that money is created by law? Did you ever stop ami think that possibly you are wrong in your belief and the Supreme court is right in its belief? Did you ever think a think on the subject at any time or in any way? as it was a light of one man against a rich and powerful corporation it has dragged along from one session to another until McGarrahan has become au old and worn out man. It appears that some twenty or more years ago this New Idria company by chicanery, fraud and the prostitution cf oillcial influence beat McUarrahan out of certain and the latter appealed to congress for When a hearing was finally obtained the senate judiciary committee made a unanimous report in his favor, and the same was passed by the satiate without a dissent tng vote and by the house with practical unanimity.

The bill did not carry a dollar of appropriation, but merely authorized the court, whose member's were appointed by President Harrison himself, to investigate the merits of MeGarrahan's claim against the New Idria company. This bill the president has vetcej, and no small amount of indignation has been expressed at Washington over the act. The reason for this act of executive injustice is easily found. Mr. D.

Mills of California is a large owner of New Idria Mining stock. Mr. Mlills is the father in-law of Hhitelaw Iteid, the Republican nomineo lor vice president. Tho president did not d-siro to injure Mr. Mills, whose big barrel is exported to bo at tho service of the Harrison campaigu committee.

Hence an act of gross executive in justice in tho veto of a bill that merely sent the case to a court for hearing as to title. Evidently' the New Idria company must be afraid of its title or it would welcome the opportunity to have a court pass upon it. Evidently also there must be some justice in MeGarrahan's claim or it would not have been unanimously passed by the able lawyers of the judiciary committee of the senate. The president, -however, sides with the corporation as against the individual, and all for the reason that the father in-law of his running mute on the national ticket is a larpe stockholder in the said corporation. The act is eminently characteristic of Benjamin Harrison, wiio also espouses the cause of Wall street as against the miners of Colorado, tho farmers of the West and the cotton growers of the out and hired a brass band to perform the dirty work.

The band marched np and down the court house square near where the speaker stood and blew their uoi'i3 with all the power they had in them making such a noicc as to almost drown the voice of the speaker.

This so enraged the audience that they started for the villains but thay ran down an alley mid escaped. The speaking went on and was finished but in tho evening when Cols. Peck and Post were waiting on tho platform of the depot for the train that was to carry them to their next appointment small crowd of hoodlums near them got into a row and drew their knives as if there was to be a big fight but which was only a pretended movement as was soon seen when they began to move nearer Cola Peek and Post in an attempt to surround them, their intention being to get into a shairi battle around the speakers and stab them to death in the confusion.

But Messrs Peck and Post kept moving away from the thugs and thus their lives were saved. When they were getting on the train another crowd of the same stripe attacked them with eggs and rocks, one of the rocks hitting Col. Teek on the hand which caused it to swell considerably and pained him very much hours.

By the way, the alleged Democratic majority in Alabama continues to shrink as the back county returns slowly come in. It was down yesterday to 7,000 and still falling.
