MOYER UPHELD
BY FEDERATION
Harmonious Working Agree
ment With United Mine
Workers Assured.

Denver, July 2i.-The convention OF
the Western Federation of Miners this
afternoon endorsed the editorial policy
which has been followed in the man
agement of the Miners Magazine.
This action was taken after a spirit
ed debate. during which Editor O'Neill
was severely roasted for supporting
socialism.
The convention amended the consti-
tuition so as to compel miners to be-
long to the local having jurisdiction
over the mine in which they are work.
ing. 1t also refused to appropriate
money for the executive board to. use
in sending out political literature
This is looked upon as a defeat of the
socialist element and is the first Sc
rous setback that wing of the organl-
cation has ever received in w. F. NJ.
convention.
The federation adopted the working
agreement with the United Mine
Workers of America, substantially as
recommended yesterday by the com
mittee appointed to consider this ques-
ton. This action was strongly urged
by President Charles II. Meyer.
The agreement, as adopted. provides
that the federation shall grant no more
charters TO coal miners, but that the
locals of coal miners already organized
shall be maintained and organizers
shall be continued in camps where
such locals exist, and that questions OF
Jurisdiction that may arise between the
two organizations shall be referred tt
the executive boards of the organlZa-
lions for settlement. The vote by
which the report was adopted was 2o'
to &C.

BY vote fthe club, the two
papers were ordered presented to
the Chamber of Commerce, to be
used as boost articles for the val

Miss Walkers paper, IAN Ideal
Valley From Palisade to Fruita,
follows:
In the far west of the Centennial
state lies the valley of the Grand.
AS the homeseeker descends the
western slope of the Colorado
Rockies he begins his entrance into
region that awakens within him a
feeling akin to one, the real estate
man tells him-he will experience
when he first beholds his paradise.
Located between hills that ever
inspire-yet soothe the ruffled spirit
is this section of Gods great
world. With rivers and streams
streams perpetual that find their
beginnings in the mountain SHOWS;
with no walls but the far off noun
tain tops. to limit expension-Grand
valley draws and holds the Incoming
tourist. Protected from the wintry
winds, yet high in an atmosphere so
pure that it can cleanse polluted
bodies and aid in renovating shut
up souls; with cloudless Sky and a
temperate cline: with nature be-
slowing her favors of beauty and
blessings of productiveness; while
science lends ready hand in travers-
ing the country with railways and
devices that man has constructed to
make even more of natures gifts
we behold the valley ideal.
From Palisade. the thriving center
of our peach district on the east to
Fruita on the west-lies a region
unexcelled in the productions oi
fruit. Here thrive most every species
of vegetable life that appeals to the
taste of mortal man. No country II

feet a peach; so pure a pear: ant
never yet has been born the Adam

no need for man to worry but let us
rejoice, there is need for him to
work for it is "the man who knows
what 1t is to act to work-that cries
out. 'this-this alone is to live"
The opportunities this valley af-
fords are manifold. Artist or
artisan; old or young; rich or poor
strong or weak-this great country
gives him a chance. If he comes in
the evening of life well-spent,
what could he dream of more restful
than home among the fruits while
he could, in truth. lift up his eyes
unto the hills" If he comes young.

make a greater man of him than de-

country. fOr tne man with grit

weak and the poor can feast on air
and sunshine and blue sky and in
the end have a home for his hard
ships.
