MAY DAY IS GLOBES DAY.

The Silver Belt believes there is a more cordial feeling existing between the members of Globe Miners union and the people of the city generally than for several years past, and it pre- diets that this new relationships comparative spark at present-will early be famed into blaze of warm friendship, and naturally an accom- panying confidence, enc man in tho oth- CT. that will add under this predicted condition, much to the prosperity of the camp and to the great benefit Of all. It is condition that should exist ill every locality where any considerable number of laboring men are employed. That suspicion and distrust have been harbored on both sides is a fact that no fair minded man will deny. Labor has dwelt too closely in an isolated world of its own creation and the oth- CT half of the population, indifferent, has made but few, if any, overtures to dissolve, or rather assimilate, the seeming clanishness of this ap- parently close corporation. The new day and the present tendency is to be welcomed. We are all dependent upon the proverbial "sweat of the brow'' for livelihood, whether the heavily muscled arm is the immediate protector of our home or the general producer upon whose shoulders rests no responsi- bility nor obligation, save to self and to Creator. With a full understanding of this fact, why should not solicitude and patronage be mutual? Why should not we, all, as citizens, rather more as men, hold closer communion? Why not be brothers in the full, uncompromising senso of the word, and let the sorrows of one be the sorrows of the other, and the pleasures of ons be the pleasures of the other7 It may be that this is con dition that can only be prayed for without hope of realization, but there can be happy approach--a relation ship that in the past has only been dream of the visionary.
 Let US, as citizens, all of us, take the first stride toward this cherished goal tomorrow-May Day.
 It win be the miners official day of rest and recreation.
 The ring of steel will cease. The spark will be smothered and the vi brating echo of the ''shot" will be temporarily silenced The wheels of industry will cease to revolve, and the sturdy workers will take their places on the playground, where the sweet canticle of the mountain song bird will be mingled with the blaring of bands, and the merry hurrahs of emancipated toll will fll the canyons and flower strewn valleys with expressions of joy and merriment. And from the snow clad peaks of the distant ranges will come refrigerated zephyrs to cool the brow and sunburned check and to give to the soul an elixir that will inspire the peace and tranquility of paradise.
 Should any citizen stand aloof? Should the hem of garment be pulled asdde7 Should the day be permitted to go to an imaginary class7
 No.
 May Day is Globes day.
 We ara all workers.
 No man stands independent of the other.
 The constitution of the United States and the Supreme Judge holds all men equal. If May Day stands for labor s outing-for tolls cessation--it is your day and 1t is my day Let us embrace tho opportunities of the day, and as one family, refrain from toll of all descrip- tion and meet on the chosen playground fer this great reunion. The miners have called upon you in very polite invi.
