passing such laws. What are we to say
of the political parties that have made
wholesale land stealing possiblc9
Republicans and Democrats have
helped 10 pass such laws as have en-.
able men like Miller, of Southern ore

large AS the state OF New Jersey.

FOR A CLEAN CITY.

There are a great many people in
this world who are more concerned
about the golden streets of the New
Jerusalem than about civic progress.
The goodly religious man who is con
cerned about the spiritual welfare of
his neighbor in the next world leaves
the streets unclesned in front of his
own premises in this world.
But religious enthusiasm and the
missionary spirit always did proeede
civilization. But after a man has been
civilized while he should begin to
clean up around his premises.
The mud puddle, the rubbish heap,
the manure pile the neglected wood
pile on the street, are not advertise.
mcnts of progress.
Let us all clean the premises before
our own doors, and not expect too much
of the city government.
The churches, the schools, and even
the lodges should take up civic i'm
proyement as the best means of pro
dueing prosperity.
Let all work for cleaner city. Rake
the streets, burn the rubbish. BE clean
in this world, and you will have made
a good start for the New Jesuralem.

campaign that arose as armed men to
destroy his organization.
The future of labor unions must be
projected along more reasonable lines
lines that are not based on bigotry
and prejudice.
When you put club in the enemy s
hands do not blame him if he uses it
to put you out of business.
Gompers and the Colorado leaders
will be succeeded by wiser and better
leadership-that promulgates a broader
ustice and sounder equity.
The rights of labor will in no coum
try be more quickly recognized than
is ours-but they must not make de-
mands inconsistent with justice.
The trade union war is only the fore
runner of better conditions for both
labor and capital.
