tirely and next week will present an
entirely new company, new features,
novelties and scenic effects under the

integrity as in the past.
For years there has not been one Of

ed by the public and we take pleasure
in extending "CoDe" and his excellent

THE Goldtield Business Men and

termlned that this condition OF affairs
must be ended, A mass meeting was
called and the Goldfeld Business Men

1T is simply a union Of the business
men and mine owners OF Goldfeld to
preserve their camp and protect life
and property. There Is to be no
change in hours and wages. The set.
t.ement Of wages made In January Is
satisfactory to all concerned. But law.
lessness and oppression must cease,
The Industrial Workers Of the World,
as the representative Of lawlsssness,
must leave the district. That is the
only Issue and all that is involved.
Labor unions are not to be warred
