BEN SALMON BRED A UNIoNIsT
Father Was Active in the Carpenters
Union and Well Known to Old Timers.

Ben y. Salmon. candidate for the Leg.
islature. l. worthy of the support OF
organized labor. Although an ardent ad-
vocatc of trades unionism. he is not al
together to blame for his convictions !;
the idea was born into him. His father.
Michael A. Salmon, is one OF the pio-
neers OF Colorado labor unions. Work
done for the cause by Mike salmon
il too well known to the old timers. es-
pecially the carpenters, TO need repeti-
tion.
In zoos Ben Salmon organized the
Brotherhood OF Railway Clerks. Denver
Lodge No. ll2. in which union he still
carries n paid-up card. Knowing what
a power organized railway clerks would
be, the railroads sought to disrupt the
movement by discharging its leader. so
after years of faithful and efficient
service Salmon was dismissed. Because
of his experience and ability, the Off
calls made him tempting offers to forego
his principles and remain in the service
of the great corporation, but Salmon
thought more of his fellowmen than he
did of his job, and finally, after six
months of useless persuasion. his imme-
dinte employer informed Salmon that
railroads could run without him and
his union. Salmon was crushed, but the
union and its work still lives.
During succeeding years Salmon cred
itibly discharged the duties of many re-
sponsiblc positions in some of the lead
ing commercial institutions of Denver,
and. little more than a year ago he
again took up the battle of the sub
merged tenth by formingla Single Tax
League. Having for years been close
student of economics. he maintains that
until we get single tax all other efforts
for bcttering conditions are vain. He
Is now spending his time advocating the
single tax among business men. profcs.
sional men and wage carncrs. and il he
gets into the legislature he promises
to do all in his power TO lit the burden
of taxation from Colorado's industries
and tax into use its available natural
resources.

CHARACTER

A man who has spotted and soiled
his. garments IN youth, though he
may seek to make them white again,
can never wholly do it, even were
he % wash them with his tears.
When young man leaves his
fathers house with the blessing of his
mothers tears still wet upon his fore.
head. if one loses that early purity
of character it is a loss he can never
make whole again. Such is the con-
sequence of crime. Its effects can
not be eradicated; they can only be
forgiven.-Henry Ward Beecher.

IRON MOULDERS

Differences between the iron moulders
and the J. H. McLain Company of Can
ton, Ohio, have been amicably settled
and the men are again at work. The
iron moulders are still on strike against
the Novelty Iron Company and have not
allowed an injunction TO interfere with
their efforts to present their grievances
To the public.
It's great to say Good morning.
It, fine to say Hello"
But better still to grasp the hand
OF a loysd friend you know.
4 look may be forgotten,
4 word misunderstood.
But the touch of the human hand

GOMPERS REFUSES TO SPEAK
FOR PAY AT LABOR MEETING
GOSPEL OF TRADES UNIONISM
FREE AND WITHOUT PRICE.
All Efforts OF Individuals to Advance
Pet Hobbies in the Union Must Be
Eliminated in Interest of Unity.

While personally pledging his best ef-
forts to the committee having in charge
the union forward movement in Phil
adelphia President Gompers has declined
to make an address to raise funds TO
finance the movement. President Com
pers declined to speak to workingmen
where an admission fee is charged. He
declared the gospel of trades unionism is
free and without price and that his
preaching OF it would be done only un-
der circumstances that would make it
free to all. The American Federation OF
Labor executive made an effective plea
for unity among trade unionists. With
out unity he declared, your efforts
TO secure your rights are defeated before
you start Trade unionism should alone
be our slogan. We should eliminate every
cult and ism from our ranks and with
unity as our watchword present solid
front in the great cause that has for its
aim the welfare and advancement OF
humanity.
while listening TO your deliberations.
| am impressed with the fact that some
of you are not working in harmony.
You charge each other with more of
fenses than are charged against YOU by
special privilege, which has long eS-
plotted YOU for its own benefit Each OF
you declare your position to be correct
and insist that the other has some sinis-
ter, selfish interest he wishes 10 ad-
vance. A plague on both your houses
Cease this constant attempt to belittle
each other and save your energy to pro-
mote the welfare OF the greatest force
making for the advance and welfare of
mankind.
"lf labor acts as unit there is no
limit TO what it can accomplish in Phil
adelphia. Divided. it is defeated before
it begins.
Trades umionism and trades unionism
only must be our slogan. We must elm
mate from our ranks all effort of indi-
viduals to advance their pet hobbies, and
battle under the banner of unity.
In this way and in this way only can
the great cause of organized labor, which
has helped the individual to more
equitable distribution OF the wealth he
has produced, and for which thousands
of men have eonsecrated their lives for
advancement of humanity be brought to
a successful elimination"

RETAIL CLERKS

General Secretary III. j. Conway, secre-
tary of the Retail Clerks international
Association, is philosopher and Oft
times gives sage advice. Here are a few
of his bon mots published in the Retail
Clerks Advocate:
Cultivate the habit of working rapid
ly, at the same time doing everything
well.
Il Keep your boxes clean and your feath.
% duster busy. Do not allow any dust
to accumulate in corners.
II there are any obstacles in your way
which prevent you from advancing your
self, never get discouraged or nervous,
but meet them boldly and they will pass
away and your way will be clear.
In every walk of life strength comes
from effort. II is the habit of self
denial which gives the advantage to the
man we call self-made.
The counterfeit starts out in life with
no fixed purpose-donit know what he
wants.
Enthusiasm is the fire that makes
the human engine go. II is what gener-
ates steam. So when salesman is out

cold, or the days too rainy, he needs to

1t is misfortune for a salesman TO
conceive an exalted idea of his own abil-
ity or importance.
A salesman has never been known TO
make a success unless he worked A. hard
for his employer as he would for himself.
