THIS GOVERNOR
LAUDS UNIONS


Boston, April 23-Declaring that la
Dor unions are misunderstood, and CIV
ing the organizations of working men
and women credit for calling atten-
ton. to wrong and securing the pas
sage Of remedial legislation, Gov
Walsh OF this state paid glowing
! tribute to. the trade union movement
in an address before the local Central
I Labor union. The chief executive
said in part:
No man Is At to serve his fellow
men unless he is able to 60 outside
himself and listen to the heart throbs
| of the millions who see nothing ahead
but ceaseless toll. You believed that
the health and welfare and prosperity
/ of humanity was the chief thing in
life. 1t was because you believed this
and that the business Of the govern
ment was to be concerned with the
health and comfort of the working
men and women and of the men and
women of the future that you have
been misunderstood. You can we'll
look your fellow-citizens in the face
and say, our movement aims to pro-
tect, defend, and safeguard the life,
health, and prosperity Of all the peo-
pie of the Commonwealth You can
go step farther and say that you
seek to do it for those who cannot do
I it for themselves. No body of men
in Massachusetts today has higher
public service to perform that the one
before me. The future of millions is
in your keeping. In what way does
Eyour organization affect the govern
ment? It is to the credit Of organic
ed labor that you have attracted the
attention Of governments to the very
fundamentals in government. You
have called the attention of govern
ments to the only essentials Of govern
ment. 1t is because you have done
SO that you have been critized, have
been called enemies of prosperity, be-
cause men have misjudged you. You
believed that the health and welfare
and prosperity Of humanity was the
chief thing. It was because you l-be-
lieved this and that the business Of
i government was to be- concerned with
health and comfort of the working
men and women, and Of the men and
women of the future, that you have
been understood"

OF one of the best wild game pre-

There is dam site on a small creek
which runs near Otto's camp that
would cover a dozen acres with water
make a magnificent place for pleas
ure boats and the trailhuilder wants
TO stock it with fish and waterfowl.
However, this is one of the future
plans not comprehended in the ar
rangements for the park at the pres
.ent time.
All cattle viii be kept out of the
monument as the government des-
isnates the 10000 acre tract it has
Withdrawn from entry and reserved
for park purposes.
An interesting thing about the
trails Otto has built up the side of
the Pinon Mesa cliffs is that while
no work has been done on them for
two years they have not been wash
ed out and were easily accessible yes
terday to a couple of fractions city

age from rains or SHOWS.
Ii is now believed that before the
end of this year the government will
have provided elk and buffalo to
keep company with the deer which
Otto will confine in his park. The
only question is whether or not Otto
can get enough local interest in the
proposition to keep his camp going
to have the necessary fences con-
structed.
Appropriations for this end are ex-
ceedingly hard to secure from con-
gress at this time.

 By ]. KEIR HARDIE

One of the most detestable features of war is the lying malice under cover of which 1t is waged. For several weeks before the war was proclaimed the "Jingo" press of the country, led by the Times, endeavored successfully to str up feelings of hatred aga1ust the German people. When hostilities broke out the interruptions scallawags wh Q purvey news for the press invented all sorts of untrue statements concerning the way III which British residents and visitors to Germany were being treated.
 Doubtless a similar line of policy toward
The Alaska socialist., 1914-09-30
Fighting for German Socialists.

And now new tact is being worked: It IS not the German people with whom we are at war, we are told, but only with the Kaiser and the military system of despotism for which he stands. In fact, one Socialist writer informed his readers last week that to all intents and purposes we are fighting the battle of the Social Democracy Of Germany! Tn support of this he quoted document which was sent broadcast over this coun- try, and which had appeared n one of the daily papers with all the signatures attached several days before. Without a shadow ot doubt this so-Called manifesto is bogus affair. Nobody knows one of the names attached to it, and clearly it speaks for nobody. As likely as not it is the work of some anti-Socialist league.
