Reduction of3WaVes,

From reliable authority it is aseer-
tanned that the Union Pacific company
does not intend to let the wages of the
employees remain as they are at present.
Nothing will be done until the affair of
last week has blown over, and then re-
ductions will commence. Not sweeping
one, covering all employees, but a few at
time. First certain clerical salaries
will be cut, then other salaried officers
and, last of all, the line men and shop
hands. The wages Of shop hands will
be reduced by shops, one or two depart
ments at a time, until all are included
The company has learned not to cut all
at one time and hopes by this arrange
ment to checkmate any attempt at strik-
ing The wages paid at present are none
too high. Laborers, with families to sup
port, now receive 81 .5Ua day. many Of
them only working eight hours. How
will the men be able to support families
in this country at $1.35 per day?
The company does not propose to re-
duce it's rates for traffic, 1t merely wants
to reduce expenses and make larger earn
ings. The management claims that the
season thus far has been a loss to the
road. 1t is partly the Union Pacific
companv's fault that this is 80. 1t was
the Union Pacific tri partite alliance that
reduced rates and lost by it. 1t is
neither fair nor just to reduce the en-
ployes' salaries to repair the damage
done the road by a bull-headed pool
commissioner who was caught in his own
net.
But reductions will not only take place
on the Union Pacific, but the Denver and
Rio Grande will also reduce employees
salaries. Itwas at first determined tc
follow the Union Pacifc's example of g
sweeping reduction, to take place on the
fifteenth instant, but this plan has beer
modified so as to reduce the wages O
only portion of the employees at a time
and then follow cut the cut as outlined
above. 1t is rumored also that the Den
yer and Rio GraAde will reduce It's force
of men to a considerable extent. The
Denver and Rio Grande and the Denver
and Rio Grande Western companies will
have to issue joint order if the reduc
ton takes place on the Utah extension

terms of the lease, pay the employees, bu

A Good Move.


Miss Kate Dwyer has opened at 247
Stout street a boarding and lodging
house for working girls, and has already
met with great encouragement in this
worthy move. Places are secured for
girls out of enjoyment, free Of charge,
thus removing them and their employers
from the clutches of the employment
agents, whose whole desire is to squeeze
every dollar from them that they can.
Miss Dwyer is an excellent house.
keeper, and is thoroughly familiar with
the needs of the working girls. Her
charges for board and lodging are verv
low, and no pains are spared to make
the occupants of the house comfortable
and provide them with remuneratiVe
and comfortable positions.
The benevolent undertaking of Miss
DIVER is heartily endorsed by The En-
QUIRER, and its readers are respectfully
urged to aid the lady as far as they can
in her good work.

settled Without Trouble.

There was a special meeting of Denver
Typographical union No. 49 last Tuesday
afternoon The call for the meeting was
occasioned by the refusal of Manager
Atkins, of the News, to pay for single
column cuts, which have been used
rather extensively in that paper of late.
The law Of the union is very plain upon
this subject, and a motion was unani-
mously passed at the meeting on Tues
day, instructing the executive committee
to notify Mr.. Atkins that he must con-
form to the scale of prices or see his
Office declared unfair" and the union
men called out. The executive commit
tee waited upon Mr.. Arklns and in
formed him of the action of the union.
He, therefore, gracefully surrendered,
and signifed his willingness to conform
to union law. The News force resumed
work, and everything, is going along in
its usual course in that Office.
A clearly defined set of laws, an honest
determination to see them enforced and
courteous and business-like way OF
dealing with the manager in this case
avoided trouble. Let everyone take
lesson from this.

made deposition before a magistrate to
the effect that, at the instigation Of a po-

that the Delahantys were innocent.

a general strike of iron workers in the
west, June l, is increasing. To-day
Oliver Brothers & Phillips three mills

settled This action is taken as an indi-
cation that the manufacturers are de-
termined to enforce the reduction. The
workmen show no signs of yielding.

OUR WANTS.
The Working Glasses Must Do the Best
They Can and Live Within
Their Means.

The season of the year has come when
nature smiles and when even the over
worked producer takes new life and hope
as he catches the inspiration of the
bright sunlight and the hum of reviving
nature, and industry. During the long
and weary months of winter, when times
are hard and work is scarce, the heart
sinks low and black desrair creeps over
those who have been sighted in the dis
tribution of comforts and luxuries, and
the cry of the poor man deprived Of the
means of earning the sustenance for
himself apd family which nature de-
rlands, is burdened with a longing for
spring. With the coming of that season
he expects there will be ample opportu-
nifty to e1pend his manly vigor in e1-
change for comforts and pleasures for
his dear ones. He says, surely, when
nature smiles and God gives life anew
to all His creatures, I, the chosen lnstru-
ment of His advanced works will be
given new life and enabled to rejoice
with all the rest" And so it should be.
There are men in all communities who
are not really of the wageworkers, but
who realize and sympathize with their
struggles to provide for the families
which have been sent to bless them;
there are those who rejoice when the
toilers of the world are elevated and
benefited, and who are always ready to
shape their course in accordance with
the condition of those who have built
up our cities, cultivated our lands and
made our country the possible refuge OF
the oppressed of all nations.
Such man is Herman Strauss, the
Denver clothier. He takes a great
interest in the welfare OF the producing
classes, and on scores of occasions in this
city has shown that he was ever ready
to do all in his power to aid every lauda-
Bile enterprise for the advancement OF
the condition of the workingmen and
women. And The ENQUIRER takes great
pleasure in announcing to its readers
that Mr.. Strauss Is one of its firm friends
that he likes to do business with the
mechanic and laborer, and that he has
purchased a stock of spring and summer
clothing with view to supplying their
wants. 1t would be impossible to enum-
crate what is contained in the various
departments of this extensive clothing
and furnishing house; but it can all be
summed up IN the statement that any
thing in the ready-made line for men,
youths, boys and children can be OBJ
tanned at this house. All goods are OF
the very best quality and make, and are
warranted to wear as long as any cloth
ing ever offered for sale in this market
Mechanics will find that they can get as
perfect-ftting garments of Mr.. Strauss as
any tailor can make for them, and can
save from $40 to $40 on suit. Clothing
for dress, business or work in all grades
patterns, cuts, and at fair scale of prices
Shirts, collars, hose, ties and everything
in the furnishing line, of the very --latest
style. Purchasers are presented with
tickets in the grand prize distribution
which occurs in July.
Ifyou are wanting anything in the
: clothing or furnishing line, take compe
tent advice and call upon Strauss, at 40I
Larimer street.

ALI the press glass houses in the coun-

almost seven weeks holiday. The
manufacturers were notified on January
], Of the intended action, and therefore
no trouble is expected.
The Lathers' Union, of Chicago, with
a membership of 5000, has resolved to
form an assembly of the Knights of
Labor. A demand for $3.50 day will
be made this month. They are now
receiving $3.50, but year ago got $3.50
and want to return to that price.
The union stove m lders at Troy, New
York, who recently returned to work at
reduced wages, quit at the Clinton
foundry last week, refusing to work with
non-union men. Similar action was
taken at the other foundries. Union
men can accept reduction in wages
when they must, but to work with scabs
is too. much
The journeymen painters held meet
ing at st. Louis, and passed resolutions
denouncingithe contractor on the court
house, whoiis furnishing men at $3.50
per day to the city. An effort is being
made by the painters to make the, wages
uniform at s., and are prepared to en-
force their demand even if 1t leads to
general strike.
The Cleveland Labor Star reports ::
"Bricklayers are not doing much yet !;
plenty of plasterers walking the streets; !;
painters seem to be busy just now the
carpenters are beginning to start, and
things are looking better the prospects
for the building trades is Frightening,
but the season will be late; timers and
roofers are all busy"
Straiton & Storm, New York, have dis
charged 200 cigar makers, and twenty
five packers. Out of the 1000 men and
women who struck only twenty-seven
have returned to work there, while the
rest, with the exception of about 100,
have obtained employment elsewhere.
The voluntary contributions raised by
the Progressive amounted to $4,000,
and have now been discontinued.
