The Illinois state board of administra
tion, in charge of all state institutions,
has issued the following order as a re-
suit of conferences with the organized
employees of these institutions:
General Orders No. III:
Employees OF the state in the state
institutions are not to be interfered
with by their superior officers because
of the fact that they may have joined
or contemplate joining labor organiza-
tion. Labor organizations in this regard
are in the same class as religious and
fraternal organizations, and no employe
is to be handicapped or Disseminated
against on account OF the fact he is ar.
filated with them.
The attitude of the board toward all
OF these organizations is one of toIera-
tion, and in their efforts to better man.
kind or improve conditions social, eco
nomie or moral, it is one of sympathy
and encouragement, and under no cir
cumstances the reverse. The rule OF uu-

Withdrawal of Federal Troops Made the

Withdrawal of the feedral troops from

cepted as the opportune time Tor Bald
win Felts detectives to start another
terror reign and make their re-rmploy-
ment by the coal operators seemingly
necessary.
John Lawson. member of the eNecu-
tive board of the United Mine Workers
of America, this week began investiga
tion into charges that operatives OF the
Baldwin Felts detective agency and dep
uty sheriffs of Walsenburg county at
tackled and beat representatives OF the
union and citizens following the with
drawal of federal troops. He declared
that charges will be filed against the
officials if sufficient evidence is OBJ
tanned.
Reports reached the Denver office or
the union that Deputy Sheriff Espeaino
Mortimer and Manel Valdez assaulted
Raves Casias, 80 years old, a wealthy
ranchman, without provocation. Casias
was at one time an agent for the United
Mine Workers.
The report states that Casias was
placed in Jail after the attack and Sc
verely beaten while in cell by Mar
tinez. Lou Miller said to be gunman,
is charged with assaulting an unknown
miner Thursday.
Another case we are investigating
said Lawson, sis the charge that Walter
Belks of the Baldwin-Felts agency at
tackled Emanuel Snyder, a miner, and
beat him so severely that he is now con-
fined in a hospital"

UNION LEADER HAS PASSED ON.

Cover Richards, who died in Leadville
last week, was one of the early leaders
in the trades union movement In Colo
RADIO and was well-known to all the old
timers. He was 67 years of age. a ma
tive of Wales and started in life as n
prize fighter in the bare knuckIe days.
During Leadville's first labor trouble in
1880 Richards was leader of the strik-
ers, and single handed, in the presence
of an armed force, he dismounted and
disarmed Major Bohn while riding down
Harrison avenue at the head Of his

NEW YORK SOCIALISTS LAUD
THEIR NEW CONGRESSMAN
THRoNGS PAY ADMISSION TO HEAR
MEYER LONDON SPEAK.
Brooklyn Eagle in Editorial Comments
on Sincerity and Energy of People
Who Follow Propaganda of Debs.

1t is estimated by conservative and
rather unfriendly observers that there
were $1,000 persons in Madison Square
Garden last Thursday night to cheer
Meyer London, the lone Socialist elect
ed to Congress this November, the man
who beat Goldfogle in the Twelfth
Manhattan district. Perhaps big jim
Larkin, the Dublin strike leader, was a
good drawing card, too. But the fact
that 5000 OF the cheerers had paid 25
cents each for their seats and the rest
had paid Is cents each is very signifi-
cant. Whether either the Republican or
the Democrat party organization could
have got together such a crowd on such
terms is matter of grave doubt. The
Socialists have acquired the habit of
paying for seats at mass meetings. The
plan has been a necessity for them be-
cause they have no wealthy men anx-
ous to contribute for hall rent.
Here is a party which has had as its
national standard bearer in four presi-
Dental elections Eugene V. Debs, who
served six months in prison for con-
tempt of labor injunction in connec-
tion with the great Chicago railroad
strike. Debs polled 20S,000 votes in
1900, 39l 900 in 1904, 100000 in 1908,
9l3,O00 in 1912. Vague as are the gen.
eral notions of Socialism, the Debs
party stands for a concrete program.
How far is it a negligible factor in our
national politics?
The practical politician will answer
that SO long as the percentage of vote
polled is relatively small the Socialist
party does not matter. He always for
gets that even mistaken sincerity and
ILL directed enthusiasms have creed
propagating value. Of the sincerity and
the energy of the Debs people a dem
onstration like that in Madison Square
Garden leaves no doubt whatever.
Our own view is that conservatism
needs equal sincerity and equal energy
in its defense; that it has been relying
too much on the mechanics of politics
and on the loyalty of party leaders or
bosses to conservative ideals. The man
who cares to study the effect of Social
istic thought on the actual political
programs of the two large parties will
be surprised to see how much has been
yielded. He, at least, will realize that
individualism is not too secure in the
United States-Brooklyn Eagle.

Governor Carlson sounded the key
note of what he intends to do for the
promotion OF Colorado industrially in n
speech delivered few evenings ago at
n banquet held by the Denver Manufac
turers' Association at the Oxford hotel.
1t aroused great enthusiasm among the
200 or more men present, among whom
were employees as well as employers, all
striving for Il greater Colorado and en-
phasizing the Importance of patronizIng
home industries. In introducing the
principal speaker of the evening Presi-
dent w. Ii. J. Doran OF the association
said:
''Onc of the reasons why the business
of Colorado is recovering SO rapidly is
because of the steady and increasing
growth of the Denver Manufacturers As
scciation and their slogan: Buy CoIora-
do Made Goods. Another reason is the
loyalty our auxiliary members are dis
playing by insisting on Colorado made
goods. and they report great satisfac-
ton. Factory Facts, the standard blue
book of Colorado made goods. carries a
message of peace and good will to every
man, woman and child in Colorado. 1t
contains the names of those who are
ready to meet the demand for Colorado
made goods. 1t is valued by the buyer
because it places them in direct touch
with the goods that are furnishing the
pay roll to $1,000 employees IN Denver.
and many through the state, and be-
cause il is endea voring to put 100000
more people to work. In extending its
heartiest good wishes for a prosperous
busy new year the Denver Manufac-
turers' Association expresses it conf
dence in the ability OF our new Cover,

ing responsibility OF his office. | take

"All the people of Colorado are actu-
ally bound together by the ties OF 4
common statehood. Recently, in ap-
preaching the problem OF taxation and
endeavoring to reduce the taxation Of
the state. we OF course first took up the
question OF economy OF administration
We aimed to obtain maximum efficiency
with minimum Waste. But when we had
accomplished this, still the taxable bur-
den must be heavy upon every citizen
as long as we only realize the lesser val
