Trying to Overflow the
Labor Market.
State Federation of Labor
Gives Good Advice to West
ern Workingmen.

Denver, COL, Feb 9.-John C. Sulh-
van, president. and Harry B. Waters,
secretary-treasurer, of the Colorado
State Fedora ton Of Labor, acting un-
der instructions of that body, have
sued the following address to organ
hed labor Of the country:
ITO Organized Labor and All Whom it
May Concern:
1.-THE Colorado State Federation of
Labor bearing in mind the true inter-
ests Of the wage earners and plain peo-
pie of Colorado, deem the present an
opportune time for recital of the
unhappy industrial and political condi-
tiOns in our state.
About two years ago, shortly after
the inauguration of our modern Nero,
James H. Peabody, as governor of Col
orado, a concerted plan was adopted by
the corporations, Citizens Alliance and
kindred associations, and executed with
a cold-blooded premeditation by con-
scienceless administration, to disrupt
organized labor and destroy the effect
of all legal enactments which have
been secured for the betterment of
those who toll. BY referendum Of
our people our lawmakers have been
commanded to enact laws for shorter
hours and sanitary regulations for
some Of the more dangerous vocations.
'"rhe metal and coal mining compa-
nies, uniting with railroad and other
monopolies, negatived the enactments
by usurping the functions Of govern
ment. The brutalities, inlprisonments
and deportations which mark their
course aroused the libertv-lOying neO-
pie to seek peaceful redress at the polls.
but the fruits of their hard-earned
victory have been filched away through
corrupt practices Of high state officials,
resulting in an effective blacklist.
lowing to the political domination of
corporations, all who oppose their
schemes are placed under espionage
and denied employment.
Free speech is denied and the po-
litical and constitutional rights of the
citizens are disregarded.
Thousands Of American citizens
have left the state rather than to SUBJ
NIT to these conditions; many are
waiting opportunities to go to other
places, where the workers are secure
in their constitutional rights.
Bureaus of publicity have been
urging victims to come into the state,
and we are even menaced at the pres
ent time with the yellow peril from the
Orient, with view of still further in
creasing competition among the work.
ers, thereby lowering the standard of
living.

Federation Of Labor desires to sound

except through the Post Office Depart
ment.
Representative Hearst's resolution is
as follows:
Whereas, in, his last annual message
to the Congress the President of the
United States, after calling attention
to what he deems the improper activ-
ity of letter carriers, says: Tile ad-
ministration has already taken steps
to prevent and punish abuses of this
nature; but it will be wise for the
Congress to supplement this action by
legislation;" and
Whereas, It is important that, be-
fore this House proceed upon this rec
ommendation, it have full information
of the executive action it is desired
shall be supplemented by legislation; ;
and
Whereas, Since the date of said mes
sage James C. Keller and Frank Cum
ningham, letter carriers, have been dis
missed, which fact is at least in part
due to an assumption by the President
and the Postmaster General that citi-
zens of the United States who are let
ter carriers can lawfully be restricted
Ill Tile cACICASC VI 4ACCuO11l Ol SpccC1A,

Resolved, That the President is re-
quested to communicate to the House,
if not in his judgment incompatible
with the interests of the public serv
ice, all reports, documents, papers and
orders showing the executive action
mentioned in said message and the
grounds therefor; and be it further
Resolved, That the Postmaster Gen
eral is directed to communicate to the
House all facts bearing upon the dis
missal of the said James c. Keller and
Frank Cunningham and the grounds
for said dismissal.

Labor Greatly Interested in
Hearst's Resolution Calling
for Explanation
From Postmaster General for
the Dismissal of Head Of
Letter Carriers.

Washington, D. c., Feb. 9.-True to
the promise made in his recent mes
sage to Congress, President Roosevelt
has taken steps to stamp out organ
ization among the letter carriers Of
this country. In his message the Pres
ident said that the administration had
already taken steps to prevent what
he terms abuses, having in mind the
efforts made by the Association of
Letter Carriers to better their condi-
tion by protestations to Congress. Tel
egraphic news informs us that Frank
H. Cunningham, of South Omaha. pres
ident of the National Association Of
Rural Letter Carriers. and James c.
Keller, of Cleveland, Ohio, president
of the National Association of Letter
Carriers, have been dismissed from the
service by Postmaster General Wynne,
President Roosevelt. Since then two
additional officers of the Letter Car
riers' Association, members Of the Ex-
ecutive Board, H. E. Norvin, of Ber-
thoud, COL, and ]. w. Whitehead, of
Medina, Ohio, have been made to walk
the plank, having been dismissed from
the service; cause, pernicious political
activity. 1t is not our desire to find
fault with the President, but we are
unable to understand the Presidents
attitude toward organized labor.
Representative Hearst, of New York,
evidently shares our predicament, for
on December 16 he introduced a reso-
luton in the House requesting Presi-
dent Roosevelt and directing the Post
master General to give the House all
the facts relating to the dismissal
from the government service Of James
c. Keller, president of the National AS
sociation of Letter Carriers, and Frank
Cunningham, president Of the Rural
Carriers Association, for alleged in
subordination, pernicious political .ac-
tivity, and violation of. the executive
order forbidding letter carriers to pc
tition Congress for an increase Of pay

spot for their game Of plunder. How
many times he has faced death in the
discharge of his duty, he only knows.
Once during his life maddened mob

his cool Judgment and Tong experience
averted serious trouble. On a. stormy
March night some years ago, when the

good care that he is safely home.
