FRANE-UPS IN COLORADO

The capitalist press i s carrying stories about outrages alleged to have been con- mited by miners in Colorado against non union men. These are charged by the strikers as being frame-ups.
 Congressman Edward Heating, after visiting the strike region, declared

A few nights ago a number of shots were fired near Trinidad.

 The strikers among other things are asking for checIweighman. The state law provides for such a weighnan, but the mine operators have never furnished one ---Ex.

RAISING TIE ISSUE

The Fairbanks Times is bothered T awful lot over the plight of the Thomas Memorial library which it is claimed, is short of funds. Those that want the lib rary should maintain it. The Times stands for private ownership of property but in this instance it stands for 1nun1- cipal ownership. The reason is apparent The Times, as usual, ccntradicts itself, and tries to 1nisrepresent the situation. On Page i, of the issue of Jan. 7th, it says: The members of tie board are anxious to have something done, and would like to see the matter made an issue at the coming municipal election The voters and taxpayers could decide then whether CT not they wished to bear the burden of tie expense" III the ed- itorial column of the same issue the Times says '"TIe suggestion that the city take the institution over seems to us to be the only solution, and we heartily endorse the proposal to put the question before the voters at the coming municip- ai election. It will not be an added bur den to the city" Tie Times admits i'll one column that an institution, which would have to be kept up by taxation would be burden, and T another part Of the same issue 1t says 1t would not D burden. So the capitalist press tries to fool its readers. II you want to know now . city 5 going to keep rp library without 1t being burden you will have to see The Fairbanks Times.
 The Times evidently has very low opinion Of the intelligence of the people of this community. It says There is 2 mistaken idea abroad that the library is church institution---that it is held in trust by the church and maintained bv church, funds, Nothing is farther from the truth. The Times is very careful to explain tie truth So that the voters can act intelligently. If The Times will give the Facts they will draw tl.eir own con clusions as to whether or not 1t is a church institution How does 1t come that the Rev. of the Episcopal is oil the Trustee board and has been for years. Is not Bishop Rowe the head Of it? Folks Alaska Directory for 191I-12 on Page 235 says Thomas George c. Memorial Library (St Matthews 2Iission) '' Will the Times explain what that means It probably doesn't mean anytlling That would be good capitalist scheme to get the people of the city to keep t up and then find string attached to it and held by people wl:o wop1Q stock 1t up with prayer books Abe Lincoln said You can fool all the people nart of the time, and you eau foc1 part 0 the people all the time, but you can't fool al the. peo- lle alt file t.G-e.

COMMUNICATION


 would like [ o be able 10 impress 231 the minds of all tie fair-minded Christ ian citizens, Of at least those that prc- tend to be Christians, in this comnnunitv, that scientific Socialism does not i n the least deal with religion, for this great political and economic movement of the world would greatly hamper its pro- gress by bothering with the religious ideas of the individual. There are too many already who have judged the nov ement altogether wrongly By hearing some anti-religious fanatic get up in Socialist gathering and emit an eruption of villifcation against religion with such vehement passion as o fill ny inte11- igent person with disgust and utter con- tempt. have often doubted the sheer ity of such an individual that will vio1- ate the platform and constitution of the party by such railings against religion. l often think they must be under the pay roll of the old parties or very densely ignorant il they think to help any polit- ical movement by unloading the blame for the crimes and injustices of the cap italist system of on the back of religion.

One rides on the rods beneath the car And one oil a cushioned chair, The one is clad in poverty's rags, The other doth broadcloth wear.

CHASE SAYS HE'LL JUMP
Plans to Forsake White Sox for
Buffalo Feds.

Chicago, June 15.-Hal Chase, first base
man of the Chicago White Sox and for
merly with the Yankees, has decided 10
jump to. the Buffalo club of the Federal
League.
Reports that he had made up his mind
to abandon organized baseball were con-
firmed by him tonight. lie said he would
give President Comiskey ten days notice
that he would leave the club--the ten days
being supposed in law to justify the ac-
ton, on the ground that a club, accord
ing to contract, has right to dismiss a
player with the same warning.
Chase was anxious to join the Brook
Ign Federals. but finally was persuaded
TO go to Buffalo. r. T. Carroll business
manager of the Buffalo club, made final
arrangements with the first baseman.
President Comiskey of the Chicago
Americans declined to comment on the
case. saying he had not been told by
Chase that he was going to forsake the
South Side team.
Another rumor had it that Chase did
not intend to jump until next season,
having signed new contract this spring
with the White Sox
