PREPARE FOR LABOR DAY NOW.

Labor Day is three months away,
but it is none too early to begin active
preparations for It's celebra iton. The
labor unions Of all large cities already
have appointed their respective ar
rangement committees.
Never in the history of trades union
ism in this city have the prospects of
organized labor been brighter than
they are today. New unions have
been organized, old ones rejuvenated
and the union spirit is becoming
stronger as the weeks go by.
There is nothing perhaps that i'm
presses the general public So much or
so strongly with the strength of union
labor like the annual march through
the streets and avenues Of the city.
Next Labor Days parade ought to
surpass in both numbers and in every
other way anything Of the kind that
ever has preceded it. Duluth wage
earners should be we'll prepared for
the event. however, if they desire to
make it an unqualified success.
A very decided friendly feeling has
been generated during the last year
between the various affiliated unions
of this city and there is Ct this time
no good reason why every union in
this city should not take part and
join in a monster street parade The
public expects the parade and wants
to be brought face to face with the
hosts Of labor as they march through
the principal thoroughfares. Let's
have every union out in line and make
record for Duluth.
The moral effect Of a coed parade
cannot be underestimated. Let US get
the preparations started at once, so
that every union can make full ar
rangements and have every member
fully advised of the intentions of the
majority

THE HAYWOOD TRIAL.

The progress Of the Haywood case
at Boise. thus far proves to a demon
tration that Harry Orchard, the star
witness for the prosecution, was a
rogue, a thief, liar, a bigamist, a
traitor and murderer by occupation.
The cool recital by this inhuman
monster of the crimes thai he COM
mitted is appalling. The full iniquity
Of his recitals with regard to himself
would be unbelievable, were it not for
the fact that the men were murdered:
that some creature in human form
conspired to bring death 10 helpless
victims in the dark, and that by ser
pentine treacery, and found in this
monster Orchard a man to whom such
bloody work was only considered a
source of revenue
The great issue is, "who instigated
this murderous work? Who furnished
him with the money while he tinkered
with bombs and crime?' From whom
did he get his immunity: These are
questions we fear the present trial will
not adequately answer.
We think the reasonable presump-
ton, from an impassionen view Of
the conditions as they existed in Colo
RADIO, is, that the incarnation of every
thing inexcorably wicked, called Harry
Orchard, constrained by the develish
instincts Of his own nature. and fired
by the agitation and inflamed politi-
cal and social conditions, which then
obtained in Colorado, he conducted a
campaign of murder and assassination
on his own hook, and blackmailed both
parties to the controversy, knowing
that each side by reason CT the I'M
happy relations then existing between
them were practically tongue-tied, and
permitted and hand-tied.
Harry Orchard thought he saw his
opportunity for money making and he
was not slow to avail himself of it.
Murder, treachery and blackmail
were the means he employed.
This theory is Perfectly compatible
with his own confession, and Is the
only one we can reconcile with our
knowledge of human nature. That
there has bee occasionally, here and
there on earth, a devil incarnate goes
without saying, but that there should
be such an aggregation Of them in one
state as Orchards conspiracy story
would imply, we cannot, and will not
believe without proof more convincing
as he.

WAR BETWEEN FACTORY AND
SCHOOL.

Child labor can be minimized by Of
ficial cooperation between the factory
inspectors and truant officers by eff
fective harmony of child labor and
compulsory education law. and the
forces that enforce these laws. This
great nation Of ours, like a sleeping
giant, has not yet fully awakened to
the fact that saving the children of
today we save the country Of the flu
ture, and as we ;ove our country so
should we protect these children. in
whose hands some day will rest the
precious stewardship Of the republic.
The state and the municipality do not
give sufficient material assistance to
child saving. The enacted laws should
be followed by an adequate number of
factory inspectors to enforce those
laws. We must have appropriation
with legislation. The competitive life
of politics diyerts the public moneys
into other channels, and merely a pit
lance is tossed to factory inspection
as sop of labor. This same compe-
tltlVe life Of politicst-he struggle for
supremacy between the great PARTIES
makes the tenure Of office for factory
inspectors uncertain, with the result
that the trained and faithful inspe,tor
at times must retire as a MARTYR to

so the great struggle goes on in every
walk of lifet-he battle for tho survival
of man over man, woman over woman,
and child over child.

Now the greatest function Of a
newspaper is to help people to see
that things which on the surface ap-
pear to affect them in one way, really
affect them in another. Taxation is
case in point. The small taxpayers
are prone to join in taxing vacant land
according to law, i. e., valuing the
"unimproved" lot at the sa ME rate as
the adjoining lot which is improved"
by 100000 business block. In
their picayune way the small men are
trying the same game as the big fell
lows, holding land out of use until the
improvements Of others shall greatlv
Increase the value Of their individual
holdings. The fact that their immed-
late interest will suffer. if land values
are taxed regardless of whether thew
are used or unused, blinds them to
the fact that their larger interest will
be much advanced. The newspaper
has no higher function than to COM
bat such shortsightcdness.

&. w. Deacon, chairman of the po-

the work of that committee, and was
heard with great interest and the
closest attention. He showed from
unquestionable results that the COM

attentive to duty, and had emitted no
effort possible on it's part to secure
the best results. Labor legislation
had been carefully looked after, but
before that the status of candidates
was most diligently investigated. In
every possible way the interests Of
the cause had been guarded, protect
ed and advanced, and the results,
while not all that the friends of la
Dor desired and hoped for, were still
considerable and worthy of high COM
