At this distance. and with the plain
ly biased and disto-ted accounts
that come from there, IL is wholly i'm
possible to judge OF the merits OF the
controversy in Colorado, which has
led TO riotins and murder. Passion
has been aroused to such a point that
both sides have been led into excess
as that they never dreamed of az the
beginning. Our civilization that we
brag about doesn't seem TO be able to
p.oduce a workable plan to settle
wars between labor and capital. Cap
ital on she enc hand is greedy, AFRO
giant and selfish. For a thousand
years II has robbed the poor by TAX
ing the liens share OF the income
from industry On the other side Ia.
Dor newly awakened TO its strength,
often blindly CROPPING to be ter itself,
is often misled By ambitious and dis
honest leaders. who seek only TO pro
lit themselves; fails 20 discriminate
between the business and the en-
ployers that pay them all they can af
ford, and often more. and the bust
ness that makes an unreasonable pro
fl. from its labor: is unable TO re-
strain the weak and vicious in its
ranks from petty abuses in time of
peace and outrageous excuses in
time of strife; and is impatient OF re-
strain even for its own good. Thee
is one law that would put an end to
all labor wars. but we do not hear its
enactment advocated very strongly
in either camp. This law is: What
soever We would that man should
do unto you, do We even so unto him"
Some day the fair, conservative men
on both sides are going to stop the
strife which now prevails. Labor
would get a mighty short distance,
except toward the poorhouse. with
cut the brains, money and specializ-
ed intellects which build up the great
business organizations, while capital,
and even extraordinary ability, with
out labor, would be as helpless as a
dead elephant. Each is absolutely es
genital to the other and yet each usu-
ally acts as though the other was its
worst enemy, which is childish, silly
and stupid.

FIRENEN HURT
ON false ALARM
One Has Rib Broken and
Truck is Smashed in
Collision
GARAGE WRECKED
IN THE SMASH UP

Three men we're injured. one of
them seriously, yesterday in a colli-
sion at Fourth and French streets be-
tween the Delaware Fire Company's
giant motor truck and the Fame Com
panys automobile chemical engine,
while both were responding to what
was thought to be an alarm from box
No. 213, at Fourth and Lombard
streets, but which in reality was the
daily test of the alarm system sent
in an hour ahead of time by mistake.
Joseph Il. Fisher, chauffeur on the
truck, of No. 517 Walnut street, sus-
tanned one broken rib. his head was
cut and he was hurt internally. FL
mer Moran, of Philadelphia, a demon
strator for the company which built
the truck, was cut on the head and
bruised on the body. Randolph Tru-
man. a member of the Delaware Com
pany. who lives at the company's
headquarters, was cut on the head
and injured in the chest. Fisher was
taken home and Moran and Truman
were sent to the Delaware Hospital.
The truck was badly damaged
The truck and the chemical en-
CINE reached Fourth and French
streets and started to turn east on
Fourth street at the same time. They
came together with such force that
Fisher lost control of the truck and
il swerved toward the sidewalk and
bounced up over the curb on to the
pavement. It dashed under the avn
ing I'm front of a commission house,
and Fisher, Moran and Truman were
swept from their places by an iron
pole. without a hand at the steering
wheel the truck, which weighs sew
eral tons and is the largest apparatus
of the kind in the world, continued
across the sidewalk and plunged
through the brick wall at the side of
the Booker, Scott and Moore garage.
The wall crumbled like paper, not
one brick being left on another, but
the impact broke the motor and the
machine came to a standstill. Other
firemen who were riding on 1t were
swept off by the awning pole, but they
escaped with a few slight bruises.
No one on the chemical engine was
injured.
