men, the time Is coming when the
voice Of labor must make itself heard
and felt throughout the land. Organ
ization has succeeded in lowering the
hours of labor. 1t has succeeded in
entering into trade agreements with
all of the great industries, so that
now capital lays its hand upon the
shoulder Of lobar, organized, AZ it's
best friend. Organized r. labor has
stood for the public school house, and
for the upbuilding Of citizenship. 1t
has appealed to the constituted Off
GERS of the law for protection when
vandalism was perpetrated, whether
in its name or not. 1t has gone into
its Golfers and offered suitable re-
wards for the conviction of the, mis-
creant. 1t has come to stay, and we
must recognize that the best inter-
ests Of the community is such an un-
derstanding as upon their part will
lead them to believe that they are
among friends"
A Measly Our.
TT seems to me I see labor as a
mighty stag brought to bay on the
shore of a lake, surrounded by many
dogs. I see martial law upon the
collar Of one; l see child labor upon
the collar of another, and those who
want to get rich from the small ten
der fingers of the lisping lips Of baby
hood; / see those who believe that

ness. see this great stag success
fully opposing all onslaughts upon
his liberty. 1t is in a national park,
under the protection of the constitu-
ton and the laws where no hunter
may enter. And then I see Sherman
Bell crawling over the mountains
with his gun, and he fires and kills
this stag. And as IL falls and its
life blood gushes from it's throat ]
see a measly. insignificant cur, that
up to this time had escaped notice,
jump upon the fallen animal and tear
his throat; and as I look at 1t I see
upon it the name Of the Spokesman
Review.
MY friends, the Spokesman Re-
view did not have enough space to
mention In advance this meeting in
the interest of suffering humanity, or
to do one kindly act toward 1t or its
promoters.
Il do not desire to raise hatred
against anybody, but hope that you
will stand shoulder to shoulder, and
in the future you will let the people
OF this country know what they now
believe, that Spokane is the strongest
union town. based upon the best and
fairest principles of any in the ma
ton. Ny friends, thank you for
your courteous attention"

Investigation q Farce.
I'VE took these troubles before con-
gress, but a congressional investiga-
ton under such circumstances is a
farce. Whenever the governor of Ida
no wished to say something against
the laboring man he was permitted
to say ii, but whenever a laboring
man attempted to say anything
against the military rule he was for
hidden and was told 1t was hearsay
evidence.
I'VE come now to the state of Col
orado. 1t is claimed, my friends, that
the Western Federation of Miners is
an illegal organization, and that they
are responsible for the bloodshed in
Colorado; but it must be remembered
that the first deportation by the gov
ernor of Colorado was taken against
the men of John Mitchell, the United
Mineworkers of America, the coal
miners of Colorado, and not against
the metal workers Of Colorado, and
they belong to an entirely different
organization.
Poor, Old Mother Jones.
1.-THE first deportation that was
made from Colorado was old Mother
Jones. This old lady is gray-haired
and IS years old. She is an organizer
of the United Mineworkers. At 6
years Of age she started in the coal
breakers working for her daily bread.
Her entire life has been a struggle
against toll and penury. This woman
was preaching, as she had a right to
preach in Colorado, the doctrine OF
organization, or civil liberty, to the
coal miners. She was taken with an
escort Of eight soldiers. hurried into
a boxcar. rushed across the state of
Colorado into the state of Kansas and
there dumped.
1.-THE miners, IN my opinion. and
especially the quartz miners Of the
west, are among the safest, most con-
servative. most intelligent and patri-
otic class Of working men to be found
anywhere in the world.
These men had appealed to the
citizens of Colorado for an eight-hour
day: and an eight-hour day was pass

Dear Sir: Let's talk it right out be-
fore folks; there's nothing to hide in
your business or ours; if there is, we'd
better hide ourselves.
We are in trade to make money; so
are you. We make it by saving our
customers mOLey; so do you. Our
object, in trade, is to save your Gus
toners wood from rotting and iron
and steel and tin from rusting; yours
the same.
We work for thousands OF property
owners; you for few. We can do
some things that you can't do; we
have the facilities. You can do some
things that you can't; you are.there.
Let us work together; be faithful
to one another We can serve our
customers better by working togeth-
err and being faithful to one another
Your dollar, put into our paint, will
paint more feet than in any other
way; and the paint will last longer.
This saves you money, and saves
your customers money. That's all
there is in our whole business.

There are three strophes the first
closing with verse ten, the second
with verse eighteen, the third with
verse twentyfour. There is the
charge and testimony. the setting
aside of the objections of Israel, the
offer of reconciliation on amendment,
and finally the threatened Judgment
which the rejection of the gracious
offer makes necessary.
The Teachers Lantern.
The very position of Isaiah in the
canon is significant, Although writ
ten later that others, it yet stands
first among the prophecies. Isaiah
is easily first of the prophets. He is
more frequently quoted in the New
Testament than all the other prophets
put together.
History of the prophets is absorb
ingly interesting. They make bril-
liant galaxy from the Samuel on
men like Othniel, Gideon, and Sam.
son, prophets of the sword, and
Hosea, Joel, Amos, prophets of the
pen.
History of prophecy is equally en-
tertaining- function and possibil-
ity of the prophetic office; how the
personality of the prophet is consery-
ed: he is not a speaking trumpet, but
a speaking man; a seer of seeing man;
not so much a mechanical pIedic tor
of future events as a man with
vision of the bearing of current events
upon the future.
The excellence of Isaiah's style is
largely due to his great familiarity
with the Hebrew Scriptures. He
shows his appreciation by incorpo-
rating several HYMNS into his writ
ings. We have modern analogy in
the case OF John Ruskin.

Let us bring our dispute to an end"
1.-The OK and the ass knoweth."
Jeremiah's contrast is between the
sensible stOrk and insensible Israel.
The Bible is an invaluable Mature
Book. Its observations are singu-
larly wide, varied, minute, and accu
rate.
Except the Lord had left a rem
nant." This historical fact of 1.-The
remnant is the hope Of every age,
nation, and Church. Society always
has salt. There are always those who

only reason why the gates of hell''
do not prevail.
Red is the most ineffaceable dive.
You can not make red white without
fairly destroying the fiber. But the
alchemy of grace works the miracle.
Special significance attaches to the
words from the fact that the princes
