Death to UDiOniSm in Cripple Greek.

A Cripple Greek dispatch of the
9th says: "Death to uulonism in the
Cripple Creek district, is the new
slogan of the Citizens Alliance,
which has sent decree broadcast
that every person connected with any
union must either sever his or her
connection with such organization or
leave the district.
The latest stand of the anti-union-
lists was vaguely limited at two days
ago, but the movement on the part
of the Alliance seemed so absurd to
the 5000 or 1000 unionists in the
camp and its enforcement fraught
with 80 many difficulties, that it was
not taken seriously.
T. S. Dimes, a Denver attorney and
one of the executors OF the Stratton

nounced that he is preparing a form
which will be presented to every
