The crime committed by nnion
miners or their sympathizers at
Independence last Monday morn
ing, by which thirteen non union
miners lost their lives and many
others were injured, was the most
dastardly outrage perpetrated in
Colorado since the labor troubles
started over a year ago. No pains
or expense should be spared to
find the guilty parties and mete
out to them such punishment as
would fit the crime. Such crimes
as this one serve to cast discredlt
upon all labor unions, and espec-
tally upon those maintained by
miners, and unless the unions
themselves take measures to pre-
vent them the governor of the
state would be justified in ami,
hilating the unions concerned.
