These labor agitators under

The pretext here is one thing.
the pretext for the next out
break may be another, but
always the real cause is the
fixed determination that the
iuuions shall control affairs in
all industrial pursuits and that
the laws of the labor union
shall take precedence over
the laws OF the land.

working in the places of

Senator mean when he says
he will settle the strike ?

why vote for him to get in to

l.is no longer a question as
to whether non-union men
shall be allowed to WORK
in Colorado. it is now a ques-
tion as to whether or not any
man shall be allowed to LIVE
without permission from the
labor union.
The statement concludes
with two questions: What
has a vast number of citizens
to hope for in the future, sit.
uated as we are, if they fail to
recognize the sacrifices of
POWERFUL From this ques-
tionsone would suppose that
the Negro's failure to vote for
the Senator would have a dis
astrous effect upon our future
friends. If the Negroes des-
tiny, were not in his own and
Gods hands, long ago de-
struction would have over
taken him, regardless Of his
friends or enemies.
What will be the logical
sequence derived from our
Indifference and inactivity, if
we ignore the statesman-like
defense of such men as Sena-
eosk9 k9akterson? 1t will be this;
they will truthfully and justly
conclude that we belong to
that type of shambling hu-
manity to whom hope is a
chain and gratitude a thread
and are unfit to be classed
with rational beings Why
irrational or shambiing be-
cause we refuse not to follow
our own convictions and why
Indifferent, because we failed
to see that. because a man has
favored us in the p t
that we are eternally bound
to him head, foot soul and
body? Has his friendship to-
ward us and for US been so
valuable as to bereave us of
our own manhood and indi :
viduality; if SO we are paying
too dear for such friendship.
What other nation rays so
dearly3 Is it to be inactive
because we like the Senator
personally, but dislike his af-
tiliations and associations and
hence opposed Why cannot
Negroes object to the Sena-
tors company without being
ungrateful, shambling or ir-
rational beings? Suppose the
Senator to be a nihilist, social
ist, anarchist or an |. w. W.,
yet a Negroes friend, must

strength of friendship and

far as the Negro is concerned
the strike is settled now and

he do it without the Negro's S
vote.
