VISITS MEETING AND

Labor Day Committee, Comprising Three
Members From Each Local, Begins
Preparations for Celebration
(By George W. Duffy.J

Pueblo, Colo, June 2l.-Much interest
is taken in the Trades Assembly and the
attendance is better than for years
With the organization of several new
unions and the organization committee
working upon the formation OF several
others, Pueblo is rapidly coming to the
front as a union town. At the last meet
ing of the Assembly committee of five
from the railroad organizations visited
this body and it is the belief of many
that they will soon affiliate with them.
The Trades Assembly has appointed a
committee upon a Labor day celebration
and a call has been issued TO all unions
Of the city to appoint three delegates to
meet with them on Sunday, July ?, at
$50 D. m. at Trades Assembly hall, for
the purpose of forming a general Labor
dav committee to arrange for grand
celebration this year.
The Labor Advocate made its appear
ance last week and for the first issue
makes a good showing. Brother McCourt
and Brother Legler will have charge of
It. and the Trades Assembly has ap-
pointed a board of censors composed OF
President fisherman, f w. Duff and
W. n. Young.
The Moulders Union is progressing as
is evidenced by the fact that this week
the members started working eight hours
day-and we understand they have
also secured slight increase in their
wage scale.

The right Of the United Cigar Stores
TO give coupons in return for trade will
be attacked by a suit to be filed in the
district court by Jacob V. SchaetIel, at
torney and president OF the Denver Re
tail Cicarmakers Association. The Civ
ing of coupons, according to the suit, is
directly against the provisions of the gift
enterprise law which was passed by the
last legislature.
Direct action was taken by the presen-
tation of coupon to Joseph G. Loeffel,
who made purchase at one of the
United Cigar Stores in Denver.
The Colorado law is similar to those
Of Florida and Washington, which have
been upheld by n decision of the unite'
