when it uttered that foul SANDER, that
infamous falsehood. If there is any
body Of men on this earth that knows
and feels that the destruction of prop
erty in strikes is a drawback to the
cause it would advance, that the TAX
ing of human lives at such time is an
injury to labor unions, it is the organi-
cation itself. Laboring men are not
fools. Too often have they been made
the victims of such circumstances.
They have been held guilty OF many
an act of violence Of which they were
innocent but which was done on pur-
pose TO involve them
1.-The best remedy for strikes is we'll
organized labor" said Samuel Comp
ers in his speech in this city not long
ago. The best protection to mills and
mines is the presence of labor organi-
cation
'Unorganized labor strikes oftenest-"
Mr. Gompers declared. Organized
labor is for peace. Peace is as essen
tial to industry as air is to animal life
Organized labor is not responsible for
the dastardly acts at Wardner by
which life and property were destroy
ed, and it was an unlawful stretch of
authority by which an officer there
branded the miners union as a criminal
organization. 1t is fundamental
principle of law that man is innocent
till proven guilty, and General Merriam,
that soldier of fortune, had no war
rant in law to say that union labor
should not be employed. He displayed
the mailed hand of militarism that is
striking at the liberties of the nation.
Does the Salt Lake Tribune con-
tradict Mr.. Gompers in the name OF
the honest laboring men of Utah?

ADJUSTMENTS.

The audience at the Theatre last
night was of a surprisingly good size,
and it stayed the evening through,
which speaks we'll for its powers of en-
durance. Not that "McFadden's Flats"
is the worst thing that ever visited
Salt Lake-it has its redeeming fed
tureS-but they are not sufficient for
people who are inclined to be particu-
lar. The audience last night, however,
was composed of people who were easy
to please, and they enjoyed the noisy
conglomeration which passes muster
under the name of "McFadden's Flats
The episodes which have to do with
the plot-if it may be so designated
are entirely too long drawn out, and
the dialogue consists OF noise and horse
play-lacking in humor. The special
ties are the redeeming features, the
five Noses and the bicycle tramp,
Harry Watson, being excellent. Be
sides these. the unique speciality fea-
lures are the dWarfs the Speck broth
ers and the Australian Tom Thumb.
There are plenty of songs, dances and
brightly costumed girls to make the
entertainment sparkle. Still the niece
seemed out of place at the Salt Lake
theatre. Those who are fond of the
style of show will readily find their way
TO the Salt Lake theatre during the en-
gagement of 'McFadden's Flats" even
if they do imagine afterwards that
they are in the wrong playhouse.
The Euterpe club will give the last

triotic event. A very large attendance
of members and friends is expected.

not suffer physically. This is the long
promised cool weather, which the show
ers this morning helped along consid-

and crowds have taken advantage Of
them, in the evenings especially. Large
crowds have been going to Brandywime
