Mont., June 19—A monster ma;»s meeting was held tonight from the steps of the county Courthouse to take some action tending to relieve the exist ing deplorable conditions in Colorado as a result of the strike of the miners there. Tonight's meeting was called by the Butte Miners’ Union, and was attended by about 10,000 persons. Governor Peabody was arraigned in bitter terms, and President Roosevelt was appealed to in hehalf of the striking miners. The resolutions ask "that a full, complete and impartial investigation be madeinto thecauses that have provoked crime and that all guilty of crime, no matter who or what they be. be punish ed in accordance with their guilt.*’ The resolutions conclude as follows: “Resolved, That the outrageous meth ods of the Peabodv administration be condemned and that we are unalterably opposed to military despotism and in I favor of the supremacy of decent civil regulations.’’ Grand Fourth July CELEBRATION At OCEAN PARK Sports, Horse Racing, Dance at Night.
