United labor bulletin., 1912-04-04
ANSWERED IN THE AFFIRMATIVE.

The Bulletin said when the Industrial Review en-
tered the Denver field that it not possible for
labor papers to exist in this city. We said that
it just like taking two bites from cherry. Our.
remarks that occasion have been confirmed by,
the acts of representatives of the Review. At the
time the former remarks made by The Bull
letin, the owners of the Review were introducing
the of that paper to the advertisers of The
Bulletin asking them to take space In the Review
On occasion advertiser was asked to discon-
tinue his space in The Bulletin and take space in the
other paper. That responsible for our remarks
that occasion.
On explanations being made by Manager Fox
let the matter drop, awaiting developments. But
again the solicitors for the Review, whoever they
may be, bounding the advertisers in The Bulletin,
telling them that The Bulletin is charging a price
for their space that not justified by the circulation
We could not believe these charges until they
confirmed by the writer.
The confirmation of these reports from solicit
justifies assertions the former occasion.
We then said that two labor papers could not exist
in the Denver field-and they cannot The regular
business of The Bulletin has not paid expenses, on
the average, since its inception weekly publica-
tion 1t has been necessary for The Bulletin to run
special advertising to pay for its publication. And
since The Bulletin has not been able to pay expenses
from Its regular publication, we want to ask our
readers how the Review exists when it does not
carry half the advertising that is carried by The
Bulletin! The Review is privately owned publica-
tion claiming that it is STATE paper, but which
has sought its support III Denver since its
removal from Pueblo FROM WHERE DOES ITS
SUPPORT COME? If the Review is supported by
political manipuatons the labor movement should
know it. 1t has been running six months in
the city of Denver and if it receive its support
outside the labor movement while it pirates ON the
business of paper that is owned and controlled by
one of the large central bodies of Denver then organ
lied labor should ask what is going be the future
attitude of the Review.
If the Review is to pose representative of
organized labor then it should say its pages who
are the of the paper. We know it is privately
owned-but who pays the billsg Who pays the
salary of Manager Fox when the paper has been
running for six months and not paying expensesf
If the Review claims to be the savior of the work.
ers then the workers themselves should be apprised
of the names of the 'philanfhropiss in the labor
movement who are spending their good money to
save the workers from their conditions. Ger
tainly someone should be rewarded since the Review
is running at a loss.
We ask organized labor of Denver; Which is bet
ter for the movement-to have paper owned and
its policy controlled by delegates from the differ
ent unions delegate that power to one or two men
to use as they see ftf 1t is believed that Union
Label League should look into the conditions that
maintain and decide whether The United Labor Bu
etin which has grown to be of the most valuable
assets of union labor, is to be ruined by whom
Organized Labor has placed in nigh places
The voice of the press is the greatest weapon in
the hands of organized labor and the writer believes
that organizations and not individuals should
press the desire of the workers.
