Keep Up thesFight.

The Rochester Truth comes to us this
week laden with local and editorial mat
ter concerning the firm OF, Kimball q
Co., tobacco and cigarette manufacturers
of that city. The Truth denies the re-
ports sent out by the firm that the diff
Guilty had been settled by a complete
victory for Kimball & Co. It says there
has been no settlement Of the matter at
all, but that a few of the locked out
employees have gone back and solicited
work, which in most cases has been
given. In this connection Truth asks
that all assemblies of knights of Labor
and trades unions take the matter up at
their meetings and raise what funds
they can, and send to the relief of the
400 girls that are still nobly standing out,
The reason given for the action of those
who went back is, that they-were out OF
means, and had to &c, to work to provide
something to live upon. All contribu-
tions should be sent 70 John Carson,
City building, Rochester. New York.
The firm of Kimball & Co. have made
repeated threats that they would break
up the labor organizations of Rochester,
and every organized workingman OF
Denver should feel it his duty to defeat
this threat, as it is blow at unionism
all over the United States. Let the
boycotting take new vigor here, and be
carried on effectively. We can contrib
ute our mite in that way, and also by
sending funds to aid the noble girls, who
are willing to face privation for the sake
of their society and principles. f..
The late arrival of Truth precludes
our giving this matter the space it should
and otherwise would spe given, but "a
word to the wise is Sufficient" and we
sincerely hope the warkihgmen of Den
yer do not need more titan this to show
them their duty.

Grand Picnic.

Assembly Knights of Labor will
give their first grand picnic at Argo park
on Sunday, July 90, and from the indi-
cations at this early day it appears that
this will surpass any like event which
has taken place in Colorado for many a
day. Already tickets enough have been
sold to insure the perfect success Of the
affair The committee having the pre-
paratorv work in charge are sparing
nothing to make the day a pleasant one
for all who attend. There will be fine
music and dancing, and John Lewis will
do the prompting.
Tickets for the round trip, including
admission to the park, are placed at the
low figure of 50 cents, SO as to allow
everyone to have holiday and one day
of real pleasure and fun this summer
Tickets are for sale byCmehbers of the
assembly. Trains will leave the Union
depot at and II a. M, and 2:30 p. m.
Returning, will leave the park at 1890,
$3.50 and $50 p. m.
The attention of our readers is called
to a large display advertisement of M. j.
Mcnamara & Co., which will be found
on the second page. This firm have Just
moved into their new house, on the cor
ner of Larimer and Fifteenth streets,
and they now have the most extensive
and the handsomest dry goods house in
Colorado. They keep the largest and
best stock of staple dry goods in the
city, and their prices are within the
reach of the mechanic and laborer. We
say this of our own accord, and mean
every word of it, and as they are the
only firm in their line which has given
demonstration that they care for your
trade, by advertising IN your paper, we
ask you in a friendly spirit, to do as
much of your trading, as you consist
emily can, with them.

only on taking care OF themselves. The

The Oldest Newspapers In England
Snd America.

The first regular newspaper was pub
hshed In England In 1922 by Sir Robert
HEstrange, called the Pubic Intelligence
the first daily in l709--the latter consisting
of but one ynge Of two columns. The first
American newspaper WAS issued ut Boston
September %. 1000. II was intended to be
issued ence month, but was Immediately
suppressed by the authorization what
reason we do not know. II was a small
sheet called PutlicIc Occurrences, both for
eigu and domestic. Only one copy Is now
known to be in existence. IL is recorded
that there was an attempt ut printing in
America rs early as fG29, at which time a
pres ~as brought over from Europe and
used at Cambridge, Mass, and from that
time until 17G2 various Others were taken

In IT04 second newspaperw publish
ed in Amerlca, called the Boston NelcStet-
tsv, and was issued in that city. II was
followed by the Weekly Mercury, publish
ed at Philadelphia in 1909.
The Neip York Gazette appeared in that
State in 172S. Maryland followed with the
Maryland Gazette Q729), and the Virginia
Gazette was first issued Mt Williamsburg.
1876 (the year her iIlustIious son Patrick
Henry was born). IL was quite an impor
tant paper at TINT time. 1t came forth rs
the herald not only OF all local and general
intelligence. but as the potential voice of
Virginia and the defender OF the rights OF
the people. 1t was the medium through
which all State papers found their way to
the Sovereign. Its first editor was VIII
linn Parks.
New Hampshire is credited with a news
publication in 1856, when the Ne,o Hamp-
shire Gazette was issued at Portsmouth, OF
that State.
Old records speak Of fire newspapers
existing in the colonies in 1925, which
number had increased to fity-six in 1916.
At the beginning of the present century
two hundred was the estimated number.
In the southern colonies crude printing
was done at Charleston, 1920; Newbern,
N. C.. 1865; Savannah, Ga, 1862.
From these very small beginnings the
great newspaper press Of Great Britain and
The United States has grown to a position
