DEBATE IN ACWORTH
IS WON BY MARIETTA

Marietta High School won out in
the contest at Acworth on last Sat
urday This is a great victory. one
to be proud of, and the contestants.
Fred Morris, Jr., and Geo. Teipel,
are being congratulated freely upon
their victory. There were 16 schools
represented in the triangular debate
and by meeting on previous occa-
slonS all had been eliminated except
Macland Agriculture school, and this
institution was splendidly represent
ed in the two young men sent to
represent them, Mr. Coalson and Mr..
Waterhouse.
Four times the Marietta boys
were called upon to demonstrate
their ability, and won every contest.
This final victory gives them the dis
tin&uished privilege of attending
the University of Georgia, in June
and debating for the championship
of Georgia.
We are expecting our boys to win
again. Hats off to Morris and Tel
pie.

Denver labor bulletin., 1916-08-19

Jeff Farr, on the books of Huerfano
county as sheriff, but being in reality
the king. He must step from office.
No! Not step, either He must be
thrown out. The men honestly nomi-
mated by the people in the fall OF 1914,
and as honestly elected at the Novem.
Der election in that year, must be placed
in office to serve the people who had
elected them. And the court, in its ul-
timatum, was obdurate. 1t refused re-
hearing. 1t knew the facts. They were
sufficient to show rampant dishonesty
at the polls, vulgar coercion OF voters,
fraudulent names on the poll books,
stuffed ballot boxes, all the evils of cap
ital when it works thru willing and
crooked tools Decency had come into
his own. Jeff Farr must go. He is now
on his way, and there is none TO mourn
or care whittier he travels.
Labor unionism in Colorado has never
had a more bitter enemy than this same
Jeff Farr. For twenty years he and his
clique have been against honest toll,
honest progress, honest rights-every
thing that was honest. Farr has always
been for the secret interests. Like Esau,
his hand has been raised against every
other man. He has been for himself and
him and patted his back when the days
work was well done.
The Farr regime has been guilty OF
high crimes and misdemeanors Even
murder has been charged. Possibly not
against the individuals, but certainly
against the evil regime. Too well do We
remember the wanton killing of Robert
Michel, Walsenburg editor, who spoke and
worked and wrote against Farr. A kill.
ing in the mans own dooryard almost
before the eyes of his wife. And n
killing that was never avenged, with
only feeble attempt on Farr's part to
apprehend the assassin.
Renew Courage and Energy.
In closing desire to express my sin.
cere appreciation of the many courtesies
extended to me and to thank my asso-
ciates in office and the officers and
members of the various unions for the
generous way in which they have sup
ported and advanced the work OF the
organizatin The future for the trade
union movement is bright organized Ia
Dor in this country never before occur
pied the position in the minds of the
people generally that it does today. It
has taken many years Of effort and un-
told sacrifice on the part Of those who
in the years gone by have made IL pos
sible. but that for which they struggled
has come in a greater degree than they
could have hoped for Therefore let Us
continue the work with renewed vigor
until the burden is lifted from the shoul-
dcrs of labor Let us renew our cour-
age and double our energies and spread
the story everywhere that the hope OF
the workers lies in organization.
Denver labor bulletin., 1916-08-19
Growth of Organization.

There is no more important question
to come before this convention than that
of organization. 1t is the funda mental
principle in our struggle for industrial
liberty, and once industrial liberty is
established, other degrees of liberty will
follow as a matter OF course. Organiza-
tion is the first and most important step
in the emancipation of the workers, as
working men and women must be organ
lied before they begin to take stand
for their rights and liberties.
One of the chief functions of this or
ganization is to devise ways and means
for the complete organization OF labor
in the state. We are well aware that
labor is not yet completely organ
lied in this state and special effort
should be exerted to bring about this
desired result. The progress of our
movement will necessarily be retarded
as long as we have large number of
nnorganized men to contend with.
There never was a more opportune
time Tor concerted move in this direc-
tiOn than at present There is a grow
ing desire amongst the workers gener
ally for better industrial conditions, a
general awakening to the fact that Or
ganizatiOn is absolutely necessary, i:
their rights are to be subserved and their
economic condition improved.
There have been numerous calls for or
ganizeTs during the past year and the
secretary treasurer and president have
responded to the best of their ability. The
vice presidents have put forth their best
efforts in their respective localities and
are entitled to great credit for their
work, which was done without any re-
Enumeration or reward. Owing to the
limited amount of funds at the COM
mand of the Federation, it has not been
possible to give this work the attention
it demanded and several opportunities
had to be passed up till some future
time.
The Compensation Law.
While it is true that our compensation
law is not by any means satisfactory, it
is equally true that no compensation
law that has yet been enacted is wholly
satisfactory. To write one is practical
impossibility until there has been accu-
nlulated sufficient actual and reliable
data on which to proceed. The fact that
of the one hundred and fifty fatal acci-
dents in our state industries during the
past year, 0S per cent received benefits
thru the compensation law, is a consid-
cradle Improvement over previously ex-
isting conditions, and an incentive to Or
ganized labor to use its best efforts to
have the law so amended as to be OF
greater value to the workers.
Our law contains several clauses that
were inserted in it thru the influence of
interested parties and these were not in
the original draft. The two most no.
table results of the insidious lobby of
the corporations, are the twenty one days
waiting period 1.-THE original draft stip-
ulated for only ten days), and the dis
graceful doctors" clause, under which
these corporations have been able not
only to continue the doctor Hospital
graft but have been able to shelter some
of their illegal practices under it.
The doctor clause has served the en-
plovers in several directions. 1t has en-
abled them to evade the state law for

Progress of the Unions.
The past year has been remarkable in
point of progress made by the various
organizations. The membership has been
largely increased and many substantial
improvements in working conditions and
advances in wages have been secured. A
better feeling appears to prevail between
employer and employe and an apparent
desire on the part of employers to 40.
just industrial differences in a rational
manner. The Denver Building Trades
have made the greatest progress in Sc
curing substantial betterment for their
members, but other trades and other
sections of the state have also recorded
considerable progress in this particular.
Amongst the advances were:
Bricklayers, Denver, 81 per day.
Hosting Engineers, Denver, 81 per
day.
Plumbers, Denver, so cents per day on
July l, and an additional so cents on
January l, 1917.
Steamfitters, Denver, so cents per day
and an additional 80 cents per day on
March l. 1917.
Electricians, Denver, 60 cents per day.
Carpenters, Denver, cents per hour.
Painters, Denver, 5 cents per hour.
Glaciers, Denver, organized, received
recognition of their union and substantial
increase in wages.
Building Laborers, Denver, 25 cents per
day
Tailors, 25 per cent advance.
Machinists advanced from 3Tk cents
per hour to 421a cents per hour.
Mattresses about 6 per cent advance.
Bill Posters & Billers, So per week.
Street Car Men, Pueblo, about 20 cents
per day advance.
Carpenters, Pueblo, cents per hour
advance.
The metal miners have received an ad-
vance of 10 per cent in almost every
section of the state with the exception
OF Cripple Creek and have largely in
creased the membership OF their union,
and the coal miners are also joining the
United Mine Workers in large numbers.
There is a general desire on the part of
the workers of all trades to solidify and
build up thier unions and the time was
never more opportune than now to Sc
cure substantial results in reaching the
unorganized and bringing them within
the fold of our movement.
There have been but few strikes dur
ing the past year. Those now in prog
ress are: The strike OF the Brewery
Workers against the Coors Brewing com
pany of Golden, where the wages of the
employees engaged in the manufacture Of
near beer and matted milk We're reduced
from 10 to 25 per cent. The Brewery
workers resisted the cut and the concern
is now non-union.
The strike of the Bakery Workers in
the plant of the Merchants Biscuit COM
pany of Denver is a strike for living
wage and decent working conditions. The
wages now being paid are from $3.50 to
$3.50 per week in the plants of this
company.

Ptattjro a New Town..

Matison.-Surveyors arrived to lay
u !. new town on the Milwaukee
road. on the Joseph Henkin farm,
abo,s four miles northwest OF the pres
ent town OF Saranac, which will be
abfrdoned, and ten miles southeast
of Madison, Saranac, which is only a
m;i~ west of Chester, on the Dakota
Central line, has never kept pace with
Chester, and the idea of the Milwaukee
officials is that a town further north
will draw its share Of business. The
new town, which has not yet been
christened, will be near Brent lake and
Round lake. 1t is stated that a bank.
a lumber yard, an elevator and several
other business enterprises are already
assured, and the new town will start
off with prospects Of a healthy growth.

SOMETHING FLY COULDN'T DO

In the opinion of some persons, the
new teacher was going almost too far
in her attention to nature study. How
ever, the children appeared to enjoy
it all. and. so far. no parents had made
open objection to the little talks on
birds, insects. and flowers with which
the teacher diversified the routine of
school work. So all went along quite
comfortably until the afternoon when
the fly and the flea were up for con-
sidnration.
Following the teachers lead, the
children had all grown enthusiastic
over the astonishing acrobatic abilities
Of the fy-all except Robbie May, who
for some time had been staring mood
lily ut his desk, casting only occasional
chances at the teacher, and those I'M
mistakably sullen.
1t became SO noticeable by the time
they were all admiring the fact that
the fly can walk on the ceiling, that
the teacher paused and turned to the
boy.
"What is the trouble. Robbie?" she
inquired. Aren't you listening
