TRADES UNION GOVERNMENT
Compares Favorably With Public and
Corporate Affairs.

corporate Affairs.
You often hear the remark that Or
ganized labor would be all right if it
were managed right. If you ask to be
shown where unionism is msmanaged
you may be answered something in
this wise: IF l should join your union
you would want me to work eight
hours a day, and think l have right
to work ten or twelve hours if please,
and that is all that keeps me out of
your union The man who argues in
this way doesn't stop to think that
by working eight hours a day he is
prolonging his season OF work, as well
as his life, and helping some other
man to work who has Eeen thrown out
OF employment by the introduction of
machinery. Let MIN look up the man
agement of organized labor and see if
there is any city, state or national gov
ernment that has any better system.
Let him look up the large corpora
| tons, the insurance societies, and COM
| pare them with the general heads OF

could be anything cleaner or better
managed than they are. We have men
| who handle hundreds of thousands of
dollars yearly, yet you never hear of
them betraying the confidence that is
placed in them by their brothers.
! Compare organized labor with the
churches and see if they are not just as
charitable Who ever heard of any
union or body of union men refusing
to give aid to those who had made an
appeal to them and were worthy of as
sistance?
In the ranks of organized labor will
be found men who are as able as those
who are the heads of the trusts and
insurance societies, but who are giving
their time to the uplifting and better
ment of the working masses in oppoSi-
tion to those who are trying to Cypress
and degrade the working people, such
a: Post, Parry and others of that ilk.
Unionism is SO managed that it is
one continual chain of protection for
the wage Garner from the smallest local
union to that great head. the American
Federation of Labor, and SO it has to
be, in order to give that protection
which is necessary to guard the wage
Garner from the selfish and greedy en-
ployers composing the Citizens Alli-
| ance.

The Burglars
Are Captured

The store OF Stern d Nahm was
burglarized Monday morning about
2 o'clock. entrance having been ef-
fected by breaking through a rear
window.
The burglars helped themselves
freely to what things they could
make away with easily and fled to the
hills in the vicinity Of Aqua Zarca
with their booty. consisting of a rifle,
a belt of cartridges. a dozen watches,
underwear, hats. pants, coats. two
%yiolins, some cheap jewelry. etc.
Upon coming down 10 the store
about Z O'Clock yesterday morning,
Sig Nahm was the first to make dis.
covery OF the robbery and he set
about to find any clue possible TO the
robbers. This was afforded In a
memorandum book which was picked
up on the floor, also one Of the party
forgot a coat which was hap
PLY recognized.
With these clues In his possession
Sheriff Cleofes Romero, accompanied
by Town Marshal Enrique Sena, went
out to Aqua Zarca yesterday after
noon and arrested a man named Ro-
mualdo Varela. He is undoubtedly
the leader of the gang as he had on
his person when apprehended three
pairs of pants, two undershirts, two
pairs of drawers and a pair Of boots.
all brand new and easily identified by
Stern & Nahm. No resistance was
made to the arrest, though the party
in the house approached was armed
with five W~inchesters and Two revolg-
ers. for the reason that the sheriff
and the marshal got the drop on their
man and the friend or two at his ell
bow.
Last night Sheriff Romero visited
Aqua Zarca again and placed Mere
gildo Yarela, a cousin of the other
man, under arrest and It Is said that
other arrests will follow.
The preliminary hearing of the
bold burglars was set for 9 o'clock
