The cigarmakers are, a great many OF
them, out of work and it has been the
cause of many starting for themselves.
A great many of the boys expect to be
at work shortly after the first and it is
to be hoped that the manufacturers will
reopen with a full force. There are no
reasons why a city that is so well organ
lied as Denver should not keep the men
more steadily employed than is the case
at the present time. The Cigarmakers'
organization is among the foremost,
They are the greatest advertisers of any
union in existence. They contribute at
all times towards organizing the unor-
ganiZed and assisting those in need They
have proven themselves all over the
United States the most loyal supporters
of other crafts, and have continually or
ganizers in the field working towards
the end of bringing more laboring men
into the ranks of organized labor. This
local union spends at home at least ST.
500 year for advertising purposes, so
person can readily see that if home in
dustry is practiced as it should be there
would be double that amount just local
| ly, expended. So come now, you who
may be dreamers. and become boosters,
working for the interest of your fellow
men, as well as for yourselves. and in
that way you will be building up an
army of men that are bound to predom-
mate in the end See that the label is
on all the goods that you buy at all times
and do not be coward afraid to ask for
what you should
