new Colorado Flyer has not been in

EDITORIAL COMMENT.
The Employers, Union.

st. Paul Globe.
1t seems that the actuating principle
of the labor union is to be applied to
the dire etion of the employers unions
that are being formed in the larger
cities of the country, movement
which, in the case of New York city,
has attained to such proportions that {.

trade organizations

the goose is sauce for the gander'' there
can be no objection made by the unioa

Dloyers. 1t is cOutended-and there is
much ground for the C0ntentiOn-that
unionism has done much for the work.

been some foolish and misguided strikes

Major Harvey's Suggestion
About North Topeka.

Major A. NJ Harvey. who has been IN
command of the rescue work on the north
side, thinks that the sanitary conditions
viii rot be near as bad in North Topeka
as has been supposed. He has been over
considerable part of the submerged dis
trict in the last two days.
The currents through the town were
very swift and they simply washed away
all the sewage and flth. said Major Har-
vey today. THE chief unsanitary condi-
ton over there comes from the dead ami
mails and they will be speedily disposed Of.
The mud can be easily spaded out and it
is made up of half sand and is compare
lively clean.
1.-The people housed in the Auditorium
and other places on this side are ia a
much less sanitary situation than they
would be in their houses.
THE people should be allowed to go to
their homes as soon as possible"
