-'B¢"'Snys OoIOrado’s5‘Ci-edit '15" Higher In
New York Than Ever Before.
DENVER, Jan. 5.—-At the joint session -
of the senate and house today Governor
Waite read his annual message, the prin-
cipal portion of which deals with matters
of local interest only. Brief extracts from
the message follow:
‘ ‘ The valuation of real and personal prop-
erty in Colorado has decreased in value
$30. 000, 000’ since the repeal of the Sherman
law. Silver mining. the leading industry
of Colorado, horbeen practically destroyed.
The value of the best silver property, no
evidenced by the dividend paying mines,
has fallen from one-sixth to one-tenth
their former value, although the ,veluo of
silver bullion has depreciated but 25 to 30
per cent of its value since 1892. Butde-
spite all this the credit of Colorado stands
higher today in New York city than at any
previous period, and more miles of railroad
have been built in Colorado in the years
1893 and 1894 than in any other state in
the Union. ”
The governor viewed at length the Den-
ver city hall troubles and his action in re
"lotion thereto; also the Cripple Creek war
and its peaceablo settlement by him. The
message recommends and indorses the ac-
tion of the Denver Chamber of Commerce
in its movement to have the government
foreclose the mortgage on the Union. Pa~
oific railroad and take posses-“ion and run
it as its absolute owner. He says that if
the free coinage of silver is over obtained
it will have to be done through the Peo—
ple's Party and blames the Republican
party for the destructiOn of the silver prod-
uct. *
The message arraigns President Cleve-
land for violating the statutes. of the
United Stat-es by sending troops to difler—
out parts of the state where trouble was
said to be imminent when the governor of'
the state was not notified of the trouble
and recommended that the assembly me~j
usurpation.
MOONSHINERS FOUGHT HARD.
But Revenue omcors Killed One Man and
Fatally Wounded Another.
Cnrcaoo, Jan. 5.-—A special from Little
Rock says: “News of ancther battle he-
twcen the revenue officers and moonshin-
ers of northwest Arkansas has been re-
ceived here. The location of a. still 15 miles
out from the village of Morga-nton was'
discovered, and Sheriff Jennings, with a
large posse, including the United States
deputy marshals, surrounded the moon- '
shiners while they were at work and un-
suspicious of danger.
“The still was in a mountain gorge in
on out of the way place, and when the offi-
cers drew near everything was at full
blast. In response to a demand for sur—
render John Putnam, leader of the moon-
shiners and part owner of the still, snatch-
ed up 3 Winchester and opened fire on the‘
posse. His companions followed his ox~
ample, and a sharp conflict ensued.
. “Bullets flew thick and fast. Putnam
was shot through the head and fell on the
ground dead. His nephew, a. boy of 17,
was fatally wounded.”
