son and Loomis. who we're NOT endorsed
by the Socialists, admits of no doubt"
This same paper. after the sentencing
of Gary's victims, said that Socialism
was buried for hundred wears. The
morning after the election it said: THE
Socialists polled at least 10000 votes. as
they kept promising they would"
Mighty poor job of "burying' these
capitalistic papers did. Maybe they
didn't bury Socialism at all. Twould
be very funny ifit would turn out that
they hadn't even killed Socialism, and
that they just thought they had, and
capitalistic wish was paternal ancestor
to the thought.
Another of the Gary. .Grinnell organs
which had been fiercest in denouncing
the United Labor partv as lot of Anarch Z
lists, dynamiters and "re ls," came out
the morning after cleo ion in an entirely
different and subdued tone 1t said !:
"The most noteworthy feature of the
Cook county election was the Jealous
labor of the we'll organized Socialist
movement, which, under the maze OF
the United Labor party, polled a sur
prisingly large vote. When the full re-
turns are figured up the Socialists VIII
show up fully as formidable as they have
asserted thev would. While other par
ties. s.apd. .others4eanaidate knitted each
ether right and left and traded indus
criminately the Socialists stuck by each
other like brothers, and not man on
ti.eir ticket but received the full vote his
party could give him. 1t was by throw
ing their entire three votes to legislative
candidates in the various districts that
they met with 30 great success"
To the workingmen OF Chicago belongs
the credit of having won the most sub
stantial of all the victories won at the
late elections. 1t is an overwhelming
rebuke to the gang of strangers headed
by Gary and Grinnell. Itis a grand and
much needed expression of sympathy
for the seven victims whose crime is
that thev have preached the doctrine
under the inspiration of which the
United Labor party marched to victory

The coal miners in Boulder, Larimer
and Weld counties have struck against a
reduction in the price of mining coal,
from $l.l24 to 81 per ton. Public opin-
ion is with the miners, as there was no
excuse whatever for the cut in the price
of mining. Over go per cent of the coal
supply of Denver comes from the mines
where the cut in prices was made. The
price of coal per ton has not been low
cred in this city and the only reason, 1t
is to be supposed, for the reduction IN
pay for mining is that the operators i'm
agined the man 30 po)r, after the last
summer of comparative idleness, that
they would, through poverty, be com
pelled to submit and take what was Of
fered them. The latest at hand in re-
gard to the status of the strike is that
tne miners are endeavoring to induce the
mine owners % submit the dispute to
arbitration.

THE CHICAGO ELECTIONS.

The results of the Chicago elections
shows that the damnable, perjury -pur-
chased verdict against Parsons. Spies
and their comrades isregarded as dark
conspiracy between the police, Grinnell
and Judge Gary.
The United Labor party, composed of
the honest workingmen of Chicago,
recognized the villalnous conspiracy
which condemned the seven men to the
gallows for talking their honest senti-
ments on the labor question, and 80 its
members stood together and vindicated
the condemned men on election day.
TO show how the Gary5 and Grinnells
recognized the fact that the United
Labor party meant to vindicste the i'm
prisoned men, the following from one of
the capltalistic Chicago dsilies will show
In the present election the United
Labor party is misnamed. 1t stands for
Socialism. Anarchy, and apology for the
assassination and the woundlug of the
policemen, who suffered in Nav last"
The intelligent aud united action of
the workingmen caused the capitalistic
papers much alarm, and abuse and Will
fication of the most bitter and lying
character took the place of argument
ana reason. The United Labor party
did its work we'll 1t endorsed six can
didates for superior court Judges, and
the following extract from a private
letter to the editor of this paper from a
wide awake friend in Chicago, will show
what that endorsement did to elect the
judges. The letter saws:
immediately after the endsrsemsnt,
the capitalistic press denounced the
judges who had accepted the endorse
ment ofthe United Labor party, claim
Ing that If elected these judges would be

elected six representatives and one state
senator, and one congressman still in

LONDON SOCIALISTS.

H. .h F.. .
The London police denied the Social
lists the privilege of parading with the
lord mayors show, ,:but ,this'did not pre-
vent the Socialists from getting in their
propaganda work on November 8, as on
that day Ethey gathered, despite the
threats Of the police, in Trafalgar square
and made speeches to items of thousands
of the unemployed and starving of the
English metropolis. An associated
press dispatch says: 7 +.
THE display of bunting and decora-
tions which is annually made on this
occasion was almost generally omitted,
and the authorities and popnlace
seemed imbued with the sense of op-
preston"
This small admission gives the lie to
the chronic charge tn It the Socialists
are nothing but few windy howler5
with no following.
1t is an admission that they have a
following and that the condition of those
who compose 1T is such that it makes
them danger and menace to the
over.fed class, which wallows in luxury
and mocks the bitter cry of London's
hungry poor.
The very fact that more than col
