WORK BEGINS ON p. o.

After delay of six weeks 100 men
are again at work on the new Denver
postofiice building. The delay was due
to red tape at Washington which pre-
vented approval of the samples OF the
materials that were sent in by the con-
tractors The foundation was finished
six weeks ago-that is. as much of the
foundation as the contractors cared to
finish at the time. They had to let much
of 1t go over because 1t is full of sand
and gravel and they are going to save
about $4,000 by the use of this material
in the building.
The marble was due to be laid last
week, but the Colorado-Yule Marble com
pany (nonunion) knew that the govern
ment was not going to be ready and has

The Peoria scale carries a general in

PEOPLE TO PITY.

(By Ella Wheeler Wilcox)
There are people to pity wherever we
look,
The rich, as well as the poor;
For sorrow stays not in the laborer's cot,
| She visits both laird and boor.
But the people I pity the most in life
| Are the poor little nerveless souls
Half-fnished at birth, and sent into
Unfit to be fighting for goals.
/ There are third-rate clerks with no
chance for a rest,
And they get all they earn, no doubt.
They are lacking in will, and tread the
same mill
Through the long years in and out,
They are wanting in character, force and
brain
Mere parts of great concern;
But they've hearts that can ache and ST.
lently break
While the wheels of the tread-mill
turn.
Or they stand on the corner with trifes
to sell
That nobody stops to buy,
And they gaze on the mass of people
who pass
With weary and listless eye.
They call out their wares in a hopeless
tone,
busters and brushes and strings,
And their look seems to say, as you
glance that way,
Il know you don't want these things"
And the women without either beauty or
brain
Or charm, but with hearts of gold,
Oh, | pity them SO as / see them go
Down pathways lonely and cold.
And l cannot help thinking there must
be a realm
Where things will be evened a bit,
And the play rehearsed here with new
cast will appear,
And these poor souls may yet make
hit"

La Exploridad. the perfect smoke.
CHEWING THE RAG.

Not very elegant is this phrase, but
yet how well understood it is Slang Is
sometimes like the powder behind the
bullet, it sends the truth home. The
words carry their own meaning and need
no explanation. We want to apply them
to the situation which is found not only
in our own, but also in other organiza-
tions.
We never heard of any of our members
coming to blows in the union room, but
there is often, we fear, pickering and
kicking. In fact. we think that a good,
free and easy fight would be more in
teresting to the spectators. How easy
it is to find fault and how often. after
the faithful few have done their best
some carping critic stands up to con-
denim and blame A chronic kicker
can do more harm to'a union than any
thing else. One evening of chewing the
rag over proposed expenditure will
do more to discourage attendance than a
10 per cent raise in assessments.
AS long as the world stands men will
disagree-that is to be expected. 1t is
right, too, to have full and free dis
cussion in our union meetings, for every
member has a right to be heard. But
in this big land Of ours it is the undis-
puted doctrine that the majority shall
rule-and it ought to be so. When the
vote is taken and the question decided,
debate should end and the few submit
to the decision of the many.
What we want is harmony and that
the union meetings should be place
where all members can find pleasure
and help but we don't want harmong at
the expense of the labor movement.
When anyone becomes known as tire
less and persistent objector, he becomes
nuisance. His talk is as unpleasant
as the filing of a saw or a boil on some
tender spot of the human anatomy.
So we say, stop it. Few men are ut
terly destitute of common sense and
few wish to make themselves disagree
able. When Chewing the rag" ceases
there will be great rejoicing and pros
perity and growth will succeed to in
difference and decline
