Street Car Award Helps Some.

Considering environment and the bit
ter struggle to establish organization
among the car employees of indianapolis
the award of the Public Service Com
mission is a great step in advance. From
the viewpoint of generally accepted
standards, some parts of the award re-
fleet the reasoning of past period, long
since abandoned in the adjustment Of
industrial conditions. On the whole.
however, the car men of Indianapolis
have made great progress. With the
award as a working basis for future
negotiations there will be better feel
ing established between employer and
employe, and the unreasonable attitude
in evidence in the past will gradually
be Chicago Union Leader.

OPINIONS OF

Praise for Congressman Evans.

Congressman John NJ. Evans OF this
state is a member of the subcommittee
investigating in the Colorado coal fields
He has ascertained for himself first hand
what it means to have the residents of
n community placed under martial law
He has discovered for himself what it
means to have little, brief authority
placed in the hands OF an arrogant up
start, clothed in the braids and buttons
of member of the militia. He also
knows how humiliating it is to be
obliged to obtain permits that he may
go from place to place in certain dis
tricts of Colorado. If Mr.. Evans contin-
ues to do his duty in the future as he
has in the past he will undoubtedly re-
ceive the hearty appreciation of the
laboring people of this state as we'll as
the respect of all lovers of right and
justiee.-Butte Free Lance.

William Stanley West of Valdosta,
Ga, capitalist and lumber baron, has
been appointed by Governor John NJ
Station to fill the vacancy in the United
States Senate caused by the death of
Senator Augustus o. Bacon. If the rec
ord of West in the Georgia Legislature
is to be taken as a criterion, the work
ing people of the nation will have more
reason than ever to regret the death of
Senator Bacon.

MEMORY FOR BENEFITS.

To have memory for benefits,
not for offenses-these are the two
pivots on which friendship may rest
strong and abiding, friendships which
pass to the greatness of noble minds.
- Be not like those who are
more hurt and offended by an un-
kind word or by word meant in
fun, and which escaped, as it were
from a cloister unlocked for a mo.
ment by the tongue-yes, more hurt
than they ever were pleased, and
comforted by thousand renewed
proofs of loving friendship.-Petrarch.

Opposition Strengthens Labor Unions.

Strange as it may seem a good cause
aways thrives most under the most ad-
verse conditions History bears this out
in all its phases. Christianity grew
strongest wherever the greatest opposi-
tion presented itself From its earliest
times its teachings were opposed; king
doms crumbled in their efforts to crush
it and stop the spread of its doctrin !;
but it grew and grew. and its roots sank
deeper and deeper into the human mind.
The seeds were carried from place to
place and dropped; they sprung up and
grew despite all the opposing influences
that could be mustered against it. The
same can be said of the trade union
principles. The cause of the workers has
always had opposition from its many
enemies and despite the legislative meas
ures of early times. when men were i'm
prisoned as criminals for attempting to
hold up their heads and use their voices
in defense of the toilers' interests
