The conviction of thirty eight dyna-
mite conspirators should clarity the
atmosphere. There can be no doubt
of the guilt of the parties or twelve
jurors would not be unanimous for
conviction. Anyone who has followed
the evidence must also be convinced
unless badly prejudiced. The men are
indirectly responsible for the blow
ing up of the Los Angeles Times
building and the loss of twenty-one
lives. There is no disputing the fact
that the McNamaras and others were
paid one thousand dollars a month for
the purpose of putting quietus to
non-union concerns, and this went
long ways to convincing the jury The
Herald truly believes the conviction
of the men will materially aid honest
union labor. The Herald believes in
organization. Capital is organized and
men must organize, but this does not
mean destruction of property and
death to those who oppose unions. No,
honest union labor has nothing to lose
by the conviction of the thirty-eight
men at Indianapolis. 1t also means
that unions will be very careful in
the future Nine times out of ten
crimes are found out, even if done in
supposed secrecy. Crime never pays
and with this knowledge the future
for both union labor and capital looks
brighter.

All motions for new trials for the
thirty-eight labor union officials con-
victed in the dynamite conspiracy
cases We're today overruled by Federal
Judge B. Anderson. The motion for
arrest of judgment in behalf of all
the men was also overruled
As soon as the court convened
few minutes after 10 a. M, District
Attorney Miller rose from his seat.
''lf the court pleases, the govern
ment asks for judgments on the YER
diets" he said.
Turning toward the prisoners, Judge
Anderson said: at has been more
difficult than was expected to arrive
at the degree of guilt in each of your
cases. Have any of you anything to
say why sentence should not be pro-
nounced against you?"
Silence greeted this question until

strike of the iron workers. never

"Farrells action in trying to keep
certain officials in the iron workers
union might be construed two WAYS"
said District Attorney Miller.

The man who can even give a half
way guess what the general assembly
will do this winter is wise guy.
After the way the voters turned down
some good measures and favored some
that should have been defeated, there
is no use trying to prophesy what
100 men will do, having as a guide the
vote of Nov. 3. One of the crying
evils was what is known as the pork
barrel" The members of the legis-
lature voted to abolish it but clerical
error made it invalid. Then the meas
ures was inflated and the people de
cided the members Continue
the old spoils system o. see.ihg money
and having it spent foolishly. Guess
the legislators are just about as trust
worthy as the average voter.

Fortunately for Telluride the three
principal mines of this district, name
ly, the Tomboy. Smuggler- Union and
Liberty Bell, are working their regu-
lar forces of men and will work them
right through the year. Years of sue
cessful mining and milling has taught
the management of these mines that
water for all purposes is essential and
they have arranged for plenty of it
so when smaller concerns are tied up
by the lack of water they can go on
undisturbed through all seasons.-San
