I'VE cannot tell just now the size OF
the sweeping victory we are going to
win, but indications point TO very
large one. Reports from Ohio, Iowa,
Kansas, Wisconsin. Indiana and Hi
nois will tell you that all those states
will vote the Democratic ticket. If
their reports are true, we will have so
many votes that by the time we get to
the Allegheny mountains we may not
need votes. I want it to be victory
in which every part of this country
shall have a part. 1 want New York
to have share, too. If we win, it is
going to be a peoples victory. II we
win, it is going to be a peoples gov
eminent and a peoples administration.

to say that they helped to do it,

Prefer Written Contract.

This matter was considered by the
unions during the thirty days notice of
abrogation, and their officers did all in
their power TO avert the abrogation of
the contract and offered to make rea-
sonable concessions. Their offers, how
ever, were rejected, and there was moth
ing left to do but go on a strike.
THE railroad officials, of course.
promised to be good to us and do what
was right. but we do not trust a fox
in hencOop and prefer a written con-
tract specifying the hours, conditions
and wages at which we sell our labor.
That much American liberty was de-
MED us, as it was the desire of the rail-
road company to pay US on the sliding
scale. They would pay us what each
man was worth, our work to be Judged
by their foremen and officials. That
proposition meant to throw ourselves
defenselessly into their power and I'M
restrained ambition. which would soon
degrade US into the lowest type of
slaves.
Against the Inauguration of the
above conditions we are striking. we
consider ourselves good citizens and in
telligent voters. and we are making
such sacrifice as few citizens of Salt
Lake ever made to uplift the avera pc
citizens condition and make living a
JOY for all instead of toll and worry.

Status of Strike Breakers.

One of the most important points to
be agreed upon is the status of the
strike breakers, the non-union men
now employed in the Rio Grande shops.
The union men want them all turned
out of the shops, but the officials point
out that as many of the strikers have
become scattered, the shops could not
be Immediately supplied with full
complement of union men.
The following official statement,
which is self-explanatory, has been
given out by a committee representing
the strikers:
against the Denver & Rio Grande sys-
TEN since the 10Th of last March, and
the public is vitality interested in the
outcome of this strike. Most of the
strikers are property owners in Salt
Lake City. or are buying their homes.
The men employed as strike-breakers
in the local shops and elsewhere on the
system are men of many trades or no
trade at all. and the many wrecks ard
delays on the Denver & Rio Grande,
some of which have been reported to a
large extent in the daily papers, fur
nish proof of this statement.
We assert that the Denver & Rio
Grande motive power has steadily be-
come worse since we went out on the
strike, and the company cannot 90
business much longer unless it receives
relief somewhere We were forced on
a strike by the company, who began
last fall by laying off men in all their
shops after having figured for months
ahead to break the union. The few
they did retain were worked half time
and less, this starving process being
continued until the 14th of February
1908, when the company posted notice
in all the shops of the system that after
the 14th of March all contracts existing
between the Denver G. Rio Grande and
the machinists, blacksmiths and boiler
makers unions were abrogated and
that they would treat with men only
