OFFICERS OF TIE UNION LABEL
LEAGUE.
ARE YOU HELPING IN THE LABEL
CAMPAIGN?

Let every true union man and woman
of Denver and vicinity, either directly or
Indirectly, connected with our great or
ganized labor movement, ask themselves
which side they are on in the brave
battle now being waged in Denver for
the union labbel. Are you helping by
living up to your obligation discounten-
ancing the sweatshop system by always
demanding the label, or are you one of
the inconsistent or indifferent kind who
are daily helping to grind the poor un-
fortunate sweater" into further wretch
up the already overlooking Golfers of the
employers. Do you ever think of the
label and it's Significance other than
when it is occasionally mentioned in the
lodge room? Are you ashamed oil do you
lack the courage to demand the evidence
of true honorable labor's hand of toll?
Every member of organized labor has his
or her individual> responsibility to the
wheel with some spirit of determination
that you are going to help by doing your
part for the recognition of the union
label speak of its object every opportu-
nifty you may have. Consider it one of
the safeguards around that living wage
for which perhaps you have gallantly
fought, to provide for the dear and loved
ones who may be dependent upon you
for the necessities of life. Do your part.
Demand the label.

DEMAND FOR FARM HELP.

Farmers of Colorado, Kansas and Wyo-
ming are already appealing to the labor
agencies for harvest hands. Superin-
tendent Croskey of the Colorado Free
Employment bureau says that he has
received calls for Is men to go to Good
land, Kan, and calls from other places.
He says that he has men to fill all
calls for this class of labor. but that
farmeds are unwilling to pay railroad
fares for the men. Other labor agencies
require employers to guarantee fare for
all men shipped to them, but it seems to
be the general idea that no such require
ment obtains with the state employmeh,
Offices.
There is also a scarcity of female
help for housework. Girls who do this
class of work get better pay and shorter
hours when working at the summer
hotels throughout the state, and this
causes a shortage at this time of year.

DEATH OF W. T. NEWMAN.

w. T. Newman, former vice grand
master of the Brotherhood of Railway
Trainmen, died Wednesday last at his
home, 900 Ogden street. Newman
worked so hard in efforts to improve the
conditions of his fellow employees that
he suffered a nervous breakdown two
years ago from which he never recov-
cred.
Men from all walks of life paid tribute
to his memory Friday, when the funeral
was held at 9 o'clock from Logan Ave
nue. chapel. Solemn services for the
dead were conducted by Rev. Father Nc.
Donough. Father Thomas H. Malone, a
lifelong friend of the deceased, spoke in
broken voice of the successful life OF
Mr.. Newman, both as Christian, citi-
zen and especially of his labors for the
benefit of his co-workers in the indus
trial field.
The knights of Columbus, Knights OF
ST. John and the Brotherhood of Rail
way Trainmen attended in a body, de-
ceased having been prominent in all OF
these organizations. The pallbearers
were members of these orders
The casket was banked with the rarest
exotics. Interment was at Mt. Olivet

"rAE BARRIER" Al ELlrcA's.
One of the Best Shows Of the Season at
the Theater Next Week.


strong successor to the good plays
that have already been given by the
Elitch-Long Stock company at the Gar
dens this year is the play which is an
nounced for Sunday night and the COM
ing week, THE Barrier" by Rex Beach
rhe American people are well ac-
quainted with the novel of the same
name from which the play gets its plot
IF. Beach loves to place his stories in
situations far away from the restrictions
or highly civilized life, and in THE Bar
rier" he has placed it in spot which is
very interesting to the American people,
Alaska. 1t is a play that deals with
strong, red-blooded men in an environ
ment which brings out the primal pas
sions which are inherent in the race.
THE Barrier" had long and successful
run in New York City and in many
other American cities. IL has particu-
larly strong appeal to Americans be-
cause of the unusual situations and the
romance that is woven into them. With
Miss Kershaw and Mr. Waldron in the
lead the play is sure to have strong
presentation, when the splendid work
that they have been doing during the
past few weeks is taken into considera-
ton The other members of the COM
pany are sure to give them good support.
Denver is especially Interested in. the
author, Mr.. Beach, since ne married one
of Denver's cleverest girls, the daughter
OF George E. Crater, and also because
they have been reading during the last
few weeks his accounts of the great bat
tie at Reno
THE Barrier" will have the usual
matinee on Wednesday and the holiday
matinee on Saturday. Tuesday will be
the next Children's Day. This day is be-
coming more interesting to the children
each week, for it is planned to make
each succeeding week better than its
Iipredecessor. The Monitor and Merri-
mac spectacle will be OF great interest,
especially to the mothers who come with
the children and desire to have them
see one of the most valuable historic
Representations of the age. On Wednes-
day will occur the annual picnic of the
organization, p. o. of A. On Friday at
8: 80 p. m. will be held the next Sym
pnony Concert.
There will be the usual Glitch features
for Sunday. Cavallo will give his con-
cert in the Trocadero in the afternoon;
there will be the usual ball game on the
diamond; and the Satriano band con-
cert at night in the lobby of the Monitor
and Merrimac building. The greatest
spectacle ever seen in Denver, the Bat
tie of the Monitor and the Merrimac, is
now in full operation and is daily being
exhibited to large crowds

To Be Held at Lakeside Soon-At the
Casino Next Week "Said Pasha."
Lakeside the great Coney Island of
Denver is proving one of the most
patronized resorts in the United States.
This summer probably will be a record
summer for Denver's tourist trade and
at attraction at Lakeside is perhaps
responsible in a large measure for the
heavy tourist traffic to Colorado and
Denver. as the resort is advertised and
talked about all through the East
Lakeside is going in for big things this
year. The new Casino theater, where a
notable comic opera stock company is
playing is one of the most interesting
additions to the park Then, this year,
the resort is bringing some of the best
bands in the country-already Thaviu
has played there and gone, now Don
Philppini, the sensational Spanish direc-
tor. is with his band at Lakeside, and
after Don Philippini comes Ferullo, the
composer and spectacular director.
These bands are drawing thousands and
all other Denver parks are feeling keen
ly the competition Lakeside, with its
progressive policy, has provided for
them.
This week la Mascotte." the Audrian
comic opera, is being presented at the
new Casino theater to crowded houses
nightly. 1t is one of the most delightful
of the old-time musical plays and it is
offered by the Casino company in an
elaborate manner. The entire Casino
chorus is introduced in the action, MAX
ing the stage picture magnificent.
Next week Said Pasha," another old
time opera, but one which still holds its
charm will be the Casino offering.

INTRODUCE RESOLUTION.

After supporting the monopoly in the
recent election that has outraged every
principle of decency, j. Harry Rose, who
was member of the fake Denver Water
league during the recent city campaign,
headed committee purporting to rep
resent a South Denver association of
property owners that presented resolu-
tion to the board of aldermen Tuesday
night, protesting against the failure of
the water company to furnish sufficient
pressure in that district, and asking that
the city attorney be directed to furnish
the council with an opinion as to what
rights the water company has in South
Denver and whether the water commits
sion has a right to enforce the terms of
the companys contract.
A protest recently came from the same
source in regard to the Telephone COM
pany operating without franchise.
Would these same interests support the
Telephone company if they asked the
people to vote on a franchise? The an
swer would be interesting.

kENEHAN STILL REFUSES.

Colorado courts will have to decide
whether or not the state must pay the
Western Federation of Miners the $780,
600 that it promised to pay at the last
session of the Legislature. The organic
alton, tired of waiting, and of refusals
of Roady Kenehan to issue warrants,
will soon begin proceedings to compel
payment.
The position of Roady Kenehan, the
state auditor. who held up the payment
of the money, is a ridiculous one He
was for years the national secretary of
the Horseshoers' union, and was given
the unanimous support of organized
labor in the election ana was especially
favored with votes by, members of the
Western Federation OF Miners.
The legislature passed a bill appropri-
ating 100000 to the w F. NJ for the de-
struction of its stores at Cripple Creek
during the labor troubles in the early
nineties. The bill ordered the auditor
to draw a warrant on the treasurer for
the amount The payment of the debt
was refused because the state officials
said that the bill belonged to the fifth
class and there was no funds in the
treasury for its payment.
Conference after conference has been
held with representatives of the labor or
ganization, its attorneys and the state
officials and finally it was promised that
the state would do something July l..
Nothing has been done and now the
miners officers feel that the time has
come for the courts to decide whether or
not the state has a right to say that a
bill can be passed and the state officers
hold up the payment of the sum and even
refuse to issue the warrant
If the Western Federation were to re-
ceive such a rebuff at the hands of the
Mine Owners associat ton 1t would not
be thought SO much of, but when a man
who received such support as did Kene-
han from the ranks Of organized labor
puts himself to such Inconvenience to
keep from the Western Federation pay
ment for destruction by the militia and
state officials. his position can only be
viewed with contempt

vossuReH ON CHILD LABOR.

DIR. George B. Vosburgh in his sermon
at the First Baptist church Sunday, de-
clared child labor was one of the great
est evils of to-day. Honest legislation
and honest enforcement of law is the
solution of the question, he says.
Child labor is an abomination," de-
clared the doctor. 1T destroys the pres
ent generation, and handicaps the citi-
zens of the future. Then we have the
trusts, the combinations of capital. They
have much of evil and much of good
We must eliminate the evil, and keep
the good.
ITO cleanse the nations of these evils
we must have men who are real Chris.
tians. When we have citizens who are
full of the spirit of righteousness, we
will be on the way to solution of every
evil, social and political"

eARMAN MAKES PLEDGES.

Harvey E. Garman, secretary to Rep
resentative Rucker and member of
the state legislature, has pledged him
self to aid organized labor in its fight
for the initiative, referendum and recall

said:
Il received the Labor Bulletin and
read with interest the articles on direct
legislation. had hoped that in the
turmoil of politics now going on in Den
yer at the spring election the boys will
not overlook the fact that the adoption
of the proposed amendment of the city
charter will be of more benefit than any
thing else that could happen. l earn
estly trust that when the legislature
meets in extra session, if it does, we will
be able to pass this proposition.
I'm regard to the matter of direct leg
islation, l trust that the governor, if he
calls the session, will make that plank
the main one in his program, as l feel
that with such a measure before the
people, it would be adopted and the mat
ter of securing needed laws very easily
attended to.
Il do hope, however that the initia-
tive and referendum proposition can be
carried, and l believe, were I there, I
would devote all of my time and atten-
tion to work having that end in view

non-unlon STRIKE RS ORGANIZED

The U. NJ w. of A. have succeeded in
organizing the striking coal miners at
Oak Hills, Colo. The miners are out on
strike because of the injustice of the
operators building the company board
ing houses about four miles from the
mines and charging The miners an ex-
orbitant price for the transportation.
The price for this haul has recently
been raised about s125 month. This
is one of the many reasons that the
miners quit work Another is in re-
gard to "shot firers"
AS the Moffat road depends entirely
upo nthe output OF the Oak Hills mine
for engine coal to operate its trains, the
service may be seriously interfered with
If the strike continues much longer. Not
only that, but both the Union Pacific and
the Burlington roads have been purchas-
ing engine coal at this point from the
Oak Hills property.
The Oak Hills mine, which is about
1876 miles from Denver, Is owned by s.
M. Perry, one of the principal stock
holders in the Tramway company; Law
renee Phipps. Col. D. G. Dodge, John F..
Campion, Gerald Hughes and other
prominent Denver men.

WHAT ABOUT LABOR suNDAYa
(By the Rev. Charles stelzle.) }

At the last convention of the Ameri-
can Federation of Labor, held in To
ronto a resolution was adopted setting
aside the Sunday preceding the first
Monday in September, as Labor Sun
day" and that the churches of America
be requested to devote some part of this
day to presentation of this question
1t was further resolved that the various
central and local bodies be rquested to
cooperate in every legitimate way with
the ministers who thus observe Labor
Sunday, seeking, with them, to secure as
large an audience of workingmen and
others as possible. 1t was stated that it
would be an advantage to both church
and labor to select a special day upon
which the attention of all classes may
be concentrated on the questions which
concern the toilers.
After the adoption of this resolution
by the American Federation of Labor,
the Federal Council of the Churches of
Christ in America adopted a similar re-
solution recommending to the churches
of America hearty compliance with the
request of the American Federation of
Labor, and suggesting to the churches
that they SO observe this day with ser
mons and other exercises appropriate to
the occasion.
During the past week the ministers IN
nearly 700 cities were requested by the
Social Service Commission of the Fe l.
eral Council to appoint committees to
cooperate with similar committees to
be appointed by organized labor, so that
they may together work out program
which may be carried out in their locali-
ties. Similarly, President Samuel Com
pers has sent out communications to the
central bodies asking for their co-opera-
tion in this matter. Mr.. Gompers sug-
gests that the central bodies appoint
committees to wait upon the clergymen
of all denominations with view of call
ing their attention to these matters, and
requesting them to deliver addresses
from theoir pulpits on Labor Sunday.
Now it is up to organized labor to
make good. This should be the biggest
Labor Sunday in the history of the
church and labor. There is not the least
doubt that If the ministers are given the
assurance of support by the workers
they will open their churches and con-
duct service as outlined in the recon-
mendations of the two great national
bodies representing church and labor.
This service will be of value to both the
workingman and the church. For. what
ever of value may come to the working
men through this service-through the
preaching of the principles of labor-it
will also be of great value to those in
the church who need the broader out
look upon the economic world which this
occasion will undoubtedly give them. ]
would, therefore, urge upon individual
frades unionists the Importance of hav-
ing committees appointed to take hold
of this matter at once. 1t might be a
good plan to have your regular Labor
Day committee handle the Labor Sunday
meeting, as the two may easily be
worked together. Indeed. the mass meet
ing OF workingmen on Sunday night
which, by the way, should be service
compored OF all the churches in the city.
wherever possible-might well be made
part of the general Labor Day program.

Steering an AeropIane.

The driving of a motorcar demands
fair measure of vigilance and nerve.
but by the general consent of those
who have tried both forms of amuse-
ment it is nothing to the steering OF an
aeroplane. From the point of view of
personal daring and initiative the new
est method of travel finds u closer par
aiiei in the early human feats of tam
ing the horse for riding and learning
to sail n boat than in the invention
OF the steamship or the railway en-
CINE. The prominence OF the human
element in the new pursuit comes nat
uraliy out 10 the concentration of pop
ular interest even more in the flying
men" than In their machines. When
railways and steamships were new the
absorption of public attention In them
was immense. But the machine then
dwarfed the man.-London Times.
