Actors Married,

Butte theater goers will recall to
mind a dark haired little woman who
sang in the chorus of the Boston Lyric
company. She was a very pretty little
bouquet. The striking face and voice
of fine young man will also be re-
called. He was John Lawton. Well,
Lawton and the pretty little woman
have at last realized on their eXpecta-
tions and anticipations and their ad-
mirers in Butte were pleased to note
the following in the Spokane Chronicle:
1.-TWO members of the Boston Lyric
Opera company, which is at the Audi
torium this week, are to be married on
the stage during the performance
Thursday evening. They are Cleo Ver-
non and John Lawton. An attempt was
made to get Mayor Comstock to per-
form the ceremony, but it was discov-
cred that the state law does not give
the mayor this power. The union of
souls will be made by Rev. o. j. Fair
field, pastor of the Unitarian church" "

SH0WMEN IN REBELLION
Say That They Are Not Making Money
Enough in Salt Lake.

The showmen of the Salt Pal
ace Midway are up in rebellious pose.
One of the several shows is conducted
by the De Krelzos the Armenians
whom Billy Woods hopes to see prosper
-aber nit. They are holding meetings
and praying for attractions that will
bring crowds to the Midway which will
help the showmen. who are not there
altogether for health.
1t will be remembered that the De
krekos made spiel every night in
front of the amphitheater at Columbia
gardens for three or four weeks last
summer. and that he made his spiel
long and interesting. The citizens of
Butte also remember the hideous band
that paraded the streets before the
show They are all at the salt palace
now and are complaining because
money does not flow into their sheep
skins as it did in Butte when they had
for an attraction the champion bag
puncher of the nation.
we didn't come here for pleasure" 4"
said De Kreko. the proprietor of the
Streets of Cairo who led the discus
sion We came for business. We came
to make money. But we can't make
money If no people come to the salt
palace. You must get the people and
get them every afternoon and every
evening.
''The bicycle races are all right, but
they are given only three times a
week in the evening. We only have a
chance at them then after $50 O'Clock.
There were representations held out to
me that big crowds would attend the
salt palace; that free performances
would be given to bring them. We had
the balloon ascensions and the jumping
dog for a week. Now we have moth
ing but the races. / can't afford to stay
here and do nothing. l have many
other offers"
The remarks of De Kreko were as
sented to by every one present. As a
consequence, Judge Colburn saw that
it was necessary to act at once, and a
meeting of the salt palace directors was
called for last evening. Its delibera-
tions were anxiously awaited by the
showmen. The session lasted for sew
eral hours, and Judge Colburn laid be-
fore the directors this ultimatum of the
Midway managers. There was quite a
discussion, but no definite conclusions
were reached. Another meeting will
be held this afternoon at 3 o'clock.
Several Midway managers besieged
him for information when the meeting
of the directors had finished
What are you going to do?" asked
Ed Talbot, manager of the miniature
railway. Il want to know at once if
something is going to be done to get
the crowds down here. If you don't
act something will drop"
There was not much discussion done
on the Midway last night and not more
than half of the shows were opened.
Wilson's congress of nations did not
open, the phonograph parlors were
closed, the merry go-round has already
moved away and the little train of the
miniature railway was not in opera
ton.
The Midway always does well on the
bicycle nights for the vast throngs that
visit the track wander over to the Mid
way after the performance.

seTbe Cry For Younr Men,,

The Chicago Chronicle has become
somewhat alarmed at what it calls the
"Cry For Young Men," by which it
means the coming habit of substituting
young men for the middle aged and old
men in productive enterprises. Despite
the disposition of such journals as the
Washington Post to poohpooh this
alarm, the Chicago Chronicle raises
very important question: 1t is true that
the tendency of modern industry is to
retire workmen at Il relatively early
age and fill their places with young
men. One great cause of this is the
constant introduction of revolutioniz-
ing methods and machinery. When a
man has worked at an industry 40
years. he is not so alert in adapting
himself to new machinery as is a
young man. The inevitable tendency
Is to drop him out. and when once out
1t is doubly difficult for him to be re-
employed except at some more simple
and lower paid occupation.
This is one of the hard phases of a
rapidly progressive industrial era, but
the remedy is not to stop the progress
or to insist that laborers shall be re-
tanned after they have ceased to be
useful. The real remedy is a system OF
insurance, the payment of which shall
be a part of regular cost of production
1t should begin when the employee
commences work, at whatever age, and
when he reaches a certain point of "di-
minishing returns or declining eco

enable him to retire on at least three
quarter wages. This would eliminate all

humiliating dependence in old age and
relieve the employers from the odium of
heartlessly discharging aged and faith

1t dwells upon the reports that the
American strikes stir up hot passion.
that the strikers IN some cases resort
to violence. in which property is struck,
and that as a general thing the pow
erful capitalists refuse to reason with
their dissatisfied workingmen.
In speaking of the trade and labor
unions in the United States. it refers
to the circumstance that these bodies
are far less powerful than are similar
organizations in Great Britain. where
they now influence not only the work
ing world. but both houses of parlia-
ment and both political parties. In
recent years many measures for the
benefit of the masses have been en-
acted and enforced. Laws providing
for n vast system of, cooperation are

calls of the working classes. For sew
eral years past the house of commons
has often taken up pressing labor
questions.
All these things have been brought
about since British organized labor be-
gan to claim some of its rights and
manifest some of its power.
The British workingmen have now
come to see that gains can be made

them.
Now, there are lessons to be learned
here by our congress, our state legis-

Instead of trying to repress the as

to crush the efforts of any struggling
body of working people to bring about
better conditions or to assert their
