and mine employers who were
largely responsible for the murder
and Acremation Of nineteen men,
wonreR and children at Ludlow,
April goth, is being completely
organized and fitted with state;

The excuse given by state Of

ment demands reorganization of
the militia so that Colorado can
manage her own affairs and allow
the United States troops to return
to their barracks.
According to information re-
ceived here, this reorganization is
not taking place in other sections
of the State.
Residents of the strike zone fear
that the state officers will attempt
to have the federal troops removed
and then turn loose the gunner
and operators thugs, as "protec-
ton Of the peace" causing another
incessant reign Of terror and pro-
badly another LUDLOW Massacre"

Our. Labor Day
BY Walter 3. Hilton

While Europe trembles meath the tread
OF myriads Of marching men,
Dumb cattle that are blindly led
Into reeking slaughter pen
Another army marches here
Toward peace and plety, hope and cheer
Their blood bespattered banners float
Full brazen on the shudd ring air
And make hell's devils grin and gloat
In prospect Of their ghoulish fare
Our flags fill out with freemen's cries
And point the path to freedoms skies.
Their bugles blare the onslaught's, call, !,
A king drives what's not his to drive
And men take lives and give their all,
Give that which is not theirs to give
How sane our march who march for bread
By tenderest Of heartstrings led!
Opuppets Grip your tott ring thrones!
o gold kings! Shade your fading bills!
0 liars and leeches! Thieves and drones
'"The sword shall kill the man that kills!'
The end? When men you We taught to slay
Join ours who march ON Labor Day!
