COMMENT ON TIMELY TOPICS

members concede that the ticket cannot be elected
in its entirety but believe that greater portion of
the candidates-those taken from the other tickets
may receive sufficient votes by having their
on the labor ticket to land them in the places
they seek 1t should be clearly understood that the
supporters do not believe that the mayorality
didae will be elected, but desire it made plain that
the ticket offered protest to the action of the
three big parties The leaders claim that the Citi
zens party-a party that should have given par
ticular attention to the labor vote-ignored labor
excepting in instance, and then nominated
Stocker whose record brands him enemy to
the workers.
In placing this ticket in the field Labor's Inde-
pendent Political league has drawn the fire of the
reform papers. This is unusual thing for the
Rocky Mountain News. While this paper conducts
'scab'' pressroom it seeks to advise the workers
how to vote, and if the workers themselves try to
promote Independent movement the Rocky Noun
tain News is always the first to cry fake col
lusion
If the Republican ticket wins it the
tnuance of corporation rule If the Democratic
ticket wins the same thing will be the result only
in lesser degree if the Citizens ticket wins Tom
Patterson will be the boss of the Democratic party
instead of Bob Speer- 1t means that non union
pressmen will reel off papers to the world saying
that Patterson is the head of the Democratic
party-and with iron hand he will endeavor to
unite the party under his command. Patterson is
hard boss If he is mounted at the head of the
party he will ride rough-shod everyone that
dares to oppose him. Taking all this into considera
ton what is labor to expect from the election of
either of the heads of the three parties?
Although labor might acquire for a time
by the defeat of both of the od-line parties
tually would be gained by electing Bailey
mayor for the stronger the old parties go in
robbng the poor and enslaving the workers the
sooner the real labor party-the Socialist party
will come into its own. We advocate organizing
politically until the time when with
one mighty stroke knock from the hands of the
rich the rel ms of government If the present move
ment should prove but joke, the party should be
held together and organized for future campaigns
until il becomes power in the city and state The
better element in the labor movement should get
into politics-either in the Socialist party the
labor party-and remain there, at all times work
ing for the benefit of labor. When this is done the
corporation parties will have opportunity to
offer insult 10 the toilers

A TEXT AND A CONCLUSION.

Defeats in Milwaukee and elsewhere mean
hardly even temporary lull in the Socialiste gain.
A Socialist party. like any other will be put in
out of power by the according to its record
the combinations against it, and the general state
of the public mind. Mayor Seide had votes
this year than years ago and was beaten merely
by a combination of the two old parties Professor
Hoxie writing in the journal of Political Econ
omy' for March, observes that lit is the union
smashing tactics of the trusts and the economic
ignorance insincerity and callous Indifference to
the suffering and needs of the people which charac
terizes the great American game of politics that
gives to the Socialist movement its life and sub
stance The Socialists in this county hardly
taken seriously until the Milwaukee election of
1910. Last fall it thought triumph to keep
them from carrying Los Angeles Schenectady
carried: they won victories in town after town in
Pennsylvania and Ohio. Says Professor Hoxie
Every successful antiunion campaign will
bring into action Socialist regiment long the
old parties remain economically blind and archaic.
So long as the old parties advance merely
along political lines fail to concern themselves
fully and sincerely with the economics of working
men the American workers and their sympathizers
will continue in increasing numbers to go to
the new party which centers its program about the
bread and butter problem of the people Golfers
Weekly.
Conclusion: Don't vote the reform tickets
vote the Socialist ticket.

BREWERIES SETTLE.
Ten and Fifteen Percent Increases
Granted---Engineers Included.

One OF the most important victories
won by organized labor in Denver re
Gently was accomplished this week by
the United Brewery Workers in coniunc-
tion with the engineers employed in the
hrcwerics, The previous existing con.
tracts OF these organizations expired on
May lst and negotiations had been pend
Ing for some time and the outlook for an
amicable settlement of the differences
looked rather dark at one time.
The brewery workers and engineers
had broken OF all negotiations and the
former had sent for an International Of
ficer and Joseph Proebstle, their interna'
tional secretary. arrived here from Gin
cinnau and secured another conference.
AS n result of this conference the brew
cry owners offered their employees fat
increase of wages of 10 per cent for all
employees in the hreweries. In addition
to this increase 5 per cent. raise in
wages was granted the Beer Bottlers.
This class of labor had been underpaid
and to reach more Just standard of
wages this additional increase was
granted.
The Engineers also received an addi-
tional concession in the shape of six
day work-week. Previous to this con-
tract these men have been compelled to
work every day in the year and this con-
cession is given more Importance by
them than the increase in wages.
The United Brewery Workers ratified
their new contract. held Mt a joint meet
ing in East Turner hall Tuesday night.
Joseph Proebstle laid the new contracts
before the meeting and the same was ac-
cepted by vote of 240 to 50 against.
The contract of the Engineers has not
been signed yet, but 1t is expected that
no serious objections will be raised at
their meeting to be held tonight.
The 10 per cent and 10 per cent raise
gives an increase in wages ranging from
81 so to $500 per week and Is affecting
about 400 workmen. The contract is for
three years.

J. c. FARRELL LOSES BROTHER.
WeIl-known Denver Waiter Hears of
Brothers Death on Titanic.

j. c. Farrell of this city, member of
Walters union No. a. has just learned
for certainty that his brother, James
Farrell, quartermaster on the Titanic,
lost his life in the sinking of that ship.
Mr.. Farrell had a premonition that his
brother lost his life in the now famous
disaster. ]. c. Farrell is one of family
of fourteen. all but three of whom have
gone to their death at sea.
James Farrell, who, from his earliest
boyhood, had followed the life of a
sailor. was making his last voyage with
the Titanic and with him as steerage
passengers were his wife and four small
children.
The tragedy of the Farrell family is
one of appalling magnitude. Charles
Farrell, an English sailor, with his home
in Liverpool, was the father of twelve
boys, all of them seamen- Three of the
sons were sailing on merchant vessel
in the East Indian ocean when she was
blown against the rocks and all on board
were lost.
The next hostage demanded by Nep-
tune was the father, who went down as a
hero with the Naronic, the then largest
steamer of the White Star line. year
later the Oxen Hone went to the bottom
with William Farrell, the oldest surviv-
ing son on board. This shock. following
so close on the death of her husband,
killed the mother.
There were eight boys left. out OF the
family of twelve and within five years
three of them have met their death off
the coast of Australia and two were
drowned in the Pacific.
]. c. arrell is the sole survivor of the
once large and happy family. He can
scarcely speak of his brothers fate with
out tears coming into his eyes 81 can't
go any place that don't hear something
about it. If l go to the picture shows
they are all showing pictures OF the
wreck and if l go to the restaurant
everybody asks me about it"
The White Star lists show the name of
James Farrell among the lost and his
body is on the Mackey-Bennett ship. No
other Farrell is mentioned on the pas
senger list, however.

DENVER NEEDS CITY MARKET.

The city of Denver needs city market located
we'll in the business center, covering not less than
half a block 1t should be owned by the city. and
stands should be rented therein to merchants farm
trucksters and Others who desire to offer their
goods for sale TO the people of Denver. BY having
a real city market the housewife could go to that
market and without leaving it obtain everything
essary for the table The farmer and the truekster
could have stands in the market where they could
sell their produce direct to the consumer; the but
ter the egg man, and the seller of fruit could
have stalls in the market for the sale of their
and could sell much cheaper to the than
do the grocers, who must pay big rentals well
the profits of the middleman. market of this kind
could he installed at much less than the of the

REED MEMORIAL
Trades Assembly Proposes Statue
in Civic Center.

At the meeting of the Denver Trades
and Labor Assembly, Sunday, John L.
Compton introduced a resolution in re-
gard to erecting suitable memorial to
the memory of Myron w. Reed. During
his life the Rev. Reed did much TO help
the la5orins people Of the city and state,
and when, in the 'eos- the miners of
Cripple Creek were in a death struggle
with the mine owners. Myron Reed said
from his pulpit that his heart went out
to the miners on Bull hill-and he lost
his place as pastor of one of the largest
churches of Denver, with a salary of
$4,000 year.
This is but one instance of how the
great friend of the worker had stood out
for the toiler His life was devoted to
the masses, and when he was discharged
from his pulpit the laboring people of
Denver employed him to preach the gos-
pei at the Broadway theater.
The resolution follows:
-Preamble.
There is to be a civic center estab-
lished by the city of Denver. for the
purpose of beauifying the city. 1t is
proposed that suitable statues and me
MORALS shall be erected to various citi-
zens. past and present, who are worthy
of such remembrance. One of our
greatest citizens who has passed away
and who was dear to the hearts of the
members of organized labor and the COM
mon people, is the late Reverend Myron
w. Reed.

The Engineers.
rom. the New York Times.

From the New York Times.
The testimony at Washington empha-
sizes what Admiral Lord Beresford had
previously said in praise of the conduct
of the engineers. Their position aboard
the Titanic gave them the first knowledge
anybody had of the seriousness of the
disaster. and yet not one of them sur
vived. 1t was impossible that any Of
them should survive. The order Save
yourselves. every man for himself never
came to them. but they never faltered.
1t is hard to say who was the bravest
of the brave, but there can be no doubt
that theirs was the most dreadful of
deaths. Whoever had SO much as life
buoy on his body did not believe the last
moment had come until it had come, not
even after the leap int the open sea.
But for the engineers there never was a
moment Of hope. not a last struggle OF
their feeble strength against the elements
and in the open. Surely at a time when
a tribute of admiring pity Is paid to all
others. the engineers ought not to be
forgotten as among those who served
we'll and died deYotedly.
