In Memory of Lee Grain.
loving one from us has gone,
A voice we loved is stilled; a4-
place is vacant in oul home
Which never can be filled.
AS we gather at the table
And watch each smiling face,
The heart fills with emotion
TO see the vacant place.
We may strive to bide our long
ing, but we are thinking Of the love
of the absent one! We feel the
Heavenly Father does all things for
the best. In His wisdom He has re-
called the boon his love had given.
The body mOulders here below, while
the soul is safe in Heaven

viii Now Have
Opportunity to Join the Union

Denver, Colo -Strikebreakers now
working in the Colorado coal mines
will be given an opportunity to Join
the United Mine Workers Of America,
now that the strike has been called
off, according to John r. Lawson,
Colorado member of the executive
board Of the organization. Mr.. Law
son said today that many of the miners
brought into the state by the opera
tors had been for some time anxious
to join the strike, but that the organi-
zation had not thought it wise to en-
courage them to quit their jobs.
A convention of District Is, United
Mine Workers, voted last night to
call the strike off, effective December
10, 1914.
The tent colonies will be continued
TOR the present. according to Lawson.
The tents belong to the union,

Colorado, as usual, presents a
terrible high per centage. With less
than 10000 miners employed her
death list is ffty-two, as compared
with twenty-four in Iowa, with some
10000 miners employed.
Compare Illinois, with her S2,-
600 miners; III fatalities, an unus-
ually large number for Illinois, with
West Virginia, partially organized
only, with 468 fatalities.
"The evidence is here that the or
ganization is directly responsible for
the savings of lives of the miners,
and those who have worked under
union and non-union conditions can
testify as to the vastly better sani-
tation in the union mines.
"If other reasons were lacking. the
labor union has fully justified its ex-
istence by the fact that it to can be
traced the saving of life and health

Unemployment Is Cause Of
Untold Misery and Suffering

Boise. This industry alone would be
"a big help to citizens of this locality
and furnish payroll in the city
something that is much needed at this
time.
Public comfort stations could be
built now in preparation for the time
in the near future when they will be
an absolute necessity. Regardless Of
when they are built, they are an asset
to the city and would provide work
at a time when so many of our citizens
are out OF work and in distress from
lack of employment would be all the
more commendable.
These projects and others can be
gotten under way, and the city and
county will lose nothing and humanity
will be served. Every practicable and
desirable piece of work already antici-
pated should be started, and what's
more, every citizen ought to interest
himself to that end.

ing Of sick father, a mother and
seven children, FIVE Of whom have re-
Gently recovered from typhoid fever.
The family was absolutely desti-
tute, the children not even having,
shoes and their story as told to the
county commissioners was too much
for the tender hearted deputies. The

money collected Wednesday to make
It comfortable but the immediate ne
eessities were secured through the
money collected.

NEEDS JUSTICE, NOT CUSH PROFESSIONAL LIST GROWS

Pittsburg-What mankind needs
is more justice and less love, said
the Rev. c. r. Zahniser, in a sermon
in this city. Justice and love are not
comparable" said the speaker, "They
are not in the same category. Love
is a function of the mind. of soul;
justice is a characteristic Of the ac-
tions and relations of man to man. To
talk about substituting justice for love
is like proposing to adjust the mach
inery Of a mill so well that there
would be no need OF engines or power
plant.
The type Of love We are needing is
that which expresses itself in justice
rather than in cheap, gushing senti-
mentality. The world is sick and tired
of the love thar sends toys to sick
child and opposes child labor laws,
gives nickels to cripples and opposes
workmen's compensation, or pities'
the poor and grinds labor below liv-
ing wage Constructive service is in
deed what the world is sorely needing.
But that is the kind Of love for which
Christianity stands

to secure work"
J. F. Welborn, president OF the
Colorado Fuel and Iron Company. is
sued formal statement on the ter
mination of the strike. 1t follows.
The calling off of the strike, now
almost IS months old, is naturally
cause for general satisfaction. 1t
must, however, be borne in mind that:
First, the general trade conditions
made it impossible for the mining
companies to give immediate or. early
employment to all of the strikers who
have been connected with any viol-
ence, though we will reemploy such
men as fast as vacancies occur or
improved trade conditions make it
possible

Unemployment is the question
which is uppermost in the thoughts of
everyone. Unemployment, the cause
of untold suffering, has itself cause,
therefore any effort to reduce unem-
ployment, which does not take into
consideration the cause of involuntary
idleness will be at least partly wasted.
Our business system which demands
so much from the toilers and gives so
little in return is the chiefest cause of
unemployment
Our country is suffering from the
fallacy of long hours and low wages.
No greater mistake can be made
than to attempt to lessen idleness by
reducing wages, and every time it is
done the problem is made more diff
icult to deal with
There are n number OF things that
can be done to help indirectly. What
would be the matter of organizing a
