trades unionists of this section who be

FOR GOOD.
Organized Labor Should Have
Chaplains Says Rev. Ste1zle In
Discussing Human Side OF Labor
Question.

| Recently / attended Il meeting of a
iartenders' Union. The group of men
assembled in the lodge room were in
|tclligent and alert, rather above the av-
cragc in the trades unions OF our coun-
try. But the thing that almost startled
me the fact that this was tho first
local labor union meeting that l had
ever attended which was opened and
closed with prayer, by regularly elect
ed chaplain. The chaplain in this case
was IL bartender. l was later informed
vans organization, throughout the en-
tire country.
There is, of course, pretty good pre-
ccdcnt for this Office. Practically every
benevolent order, as, for instance, the
IOdd Fellows, Woodmcn, Masons, Legion
OF Honor, Royal Arcanum, etc, have such
officials. The United States Congress,
the Senate and the State Legislatures
nave their chaplains. Every man of-war
and every regiment has its chaplain
Even circus recently appointed min
ister as its chaplain, who will hercaf-
ter travel about with the group of a
thousand employees.
a number of Central Labor Bodies
have also appoined such officers, clectiny
the Ministerial Fraternal Delegates to
the position. Several State Bodies dur
ing the past few years have requested
local ministers to open their meetings
with prayer, and the last two national
of the American Federation
OF Labor were similarly opened. 1 re-
call that, ut the, conclusion of the PRAYER
offered at the Minneapolis convention,
President Gompers remarked that he was
glad that the day had arrived when a
minister of the gospel could ask for
Gods blessing upon labor convention
And why not? It's far more consistent
with the fitness of things to ask God to
'lcss a labor meeting which is working
for peace and prosperity, than to pray
for the success of an army which is bent
npon mission of murder.
Why not extend and elaborate the
plan? Why not have every Central
Body oppoint as chaplain the fraternal
delegate from the Ministerial Associa-
ton? The moment or two engaged in
quiet when we should pray for the AL,
mighty's blessing on the proceedings Of
the session will help more materially in
the betterment of conditions than some
other preliminaries in some labor bodies
This chaplain might be enlisted in many
other ways. There are special occasions
when his presence and influence will
help decidedly in promoting more har-
monious relationships, both among the
men themselves and as between the loca
trades unionists and the general public
He might assist in the obligation of new
| members. He could preach an annual
sermon, to trades unionists and their

friends, particularly on 'Labor's Me
mortal Sunday" on the second Sunday
in May, as suggested by the last Ameri
can Federation OF Labor convention. He
could be secured to give special lectures
on labor subjects.
Why not, then, have a chaplain in
every Central Body? The office might
be passed on from man to man. There
are few ministers who would not feel
honorcd to occupy such position in the
great labor movement which is coming
to mean so much for the welfare of the
people.

FOREST RANGER HAD
HIS HORSES STOLEN
Rustlers in Manzano Forests Found
Ii Easy TO Take Government
Mans Steeds-Ranchers Also
Losing Valuable Animals.

Persons arriving from Chilli say
that cattle and horse rustling Is go
ing on in the Sandid and Manzano
mountains with a boldness equal to
the palmy days of ten years ago,
when an organized band made it's
headquarters on the eastern slope of
the Manzanos and did a wholesale
horse stealing business between that
range and the Captain mountains.
Forest Ranger A. D. Reed, in charge
of the ManZano and Sandia national
forests during the absence of Super
visor Harris lost two horses in the
Manzanos last week and though
every range rider in the forest was
started on a hunt, hair nor hide could
be found of either animal. One of the
horses belonged to local livery
stable and the other was well
broken camp horse. Both were valu-
able animals. Several other horses
have disappeared mysteriously in the
Manzano National forest within the
past few weeks
It is believed that the thieves have
confederates living in one of the sew
eral towns on the eastern slope of the
mountains and as the country is
rough and covered with timber, once
the thieves get the animals a little
distance it is easy for them to es-
cape The stolen horses are driven
across the Estancia plains to the Pc
cos valley and sold
