The Troubles of Colorado.

1t would be most unfair to charge
organized labor with the dynamite
atrocities recently perpetrated in Col
orado. where many lives of non-union
workers were sacrificed. Organized Ia
Dor, as we know it here i'm the East,
cannot have the slightest sympathy
with any such methods. Its leaders
recognize that to go outside the law is
to injure themselves more than those
they oppose, and that the use of dyna-
mite mangles their own cause when 1t
is set off. The dynamite horror in the
Colorado mining region is. however,
one of a long series Of crimes which
have marked the labor troubles in that
state. which have been going on for
nearly two years, and while nobody be-
lieves that the miners union is to be
blamed for this latest bloody outrage
or any of its predecessors, for that
matter. everybody knows that memberq
of the union both plotted and carried
It out And it is an unfortunate state
of things that the union. as well as or
ganized labor in general, will probably
be blamed so far as public opinion
goes.
Those striking miners have. undoubt-
eddy, had their grievances, and the
mine owners in fighting them have
used means which no argument could
justify. but there is nothing to put the
strikers in any other light than that Of
anarchists and murderers. when we
consider how they have poisoned wells,
robbed and abused non-union workers
and their families, wrecked trains.

ers going home after a days labor in
the mines. The whole affair is a mad
debauch ofanarchy and a reign of law

OF pioneer times when the West was
veritably wild and wooily. The courts

When You've Got a Raise in Pay.

There's a lot of satisfaction when you've
got 4 raise in pay.
And you whistle in a happy and self
important way.
You sort of feel like getting down and
buckling to your work,
For it's rising now in value and is worth
too much to shirk
And You feel a little bigger and you ham
Sort of confident and eager-when youV
got raise in pay.
1t may be just little, but 1t seems to be
a pile.
And you change your figures over and
you add EN- with smile:
A little more to lay away, little more
to spend,
And if you're open hearted-why. little
more to lend;
And all the castles you have built for
some far distant day
Seem to move 4 little nearer when you've
got a raise in pay.
For the, little extra money. however
small it be.
It's step between necessity and lux
ury, you see;
And all the rose-lined paths Of ease
You've hoped some day to win
Just smile at you as you pass by ana
seem to say: Come in"
You spend 1t ten times over In your m1no
but that's the way
A fellow has of doing when he gets
raise in pay.
oh, II means you're worth a little more;
you've not been wasting time.
1t means you're on the ladder ana are
learning how to climb;
And you breath a little deeper than you
ever did before
And YOU work little harder and you
think a little more,
For work is just a pleasant thing and life
is light and gay
When you Chamber up another round and
get raise in pay

A thousand bees are murmuring

Where haycocks pitch their fragrant

If man is in love with n girl she

The way to convince n girl you think
she is pretty is 10 look at her so she can
guess you are thinking it.
When a woman. is mad clear through

St. Louis, July The nomination Of Justice Alton B. Parker, of New York, for the presidency by the democratic national convention, took place yester- day morning at 6:l5 o'clock. The tin- ish was dramatic in the extreme, and though the convention had been in ses- sion all night long, enthusiasm carried the delegates off their feet as cheer fol- lowed cheer in waves from end to end of the great hall. The convention had met in the darkness of the late evening and the bright morning sun made the electric lights look dim when the nom- nation of the New Yorker was made unanimous before the completion of the roll cali on the first ballot.
 The termination of the first roll call showed Parker to have received 658 of the 667 votes necessary for the nomina- tion, and before the announcement of the result, those states which had voted against him began demanding recogni- tion that they might change their votes.
