Refreshingly plain and smart, and
embellished with several clever new
ideas In the details of its finishing,
this tailored suit will appeal to WON.
en- who appreciate these desirable
qualities, 1t is to the credit of Ameri-
cans that the best tailored suits are
made In this country, and they are
typical Of the thoroughbred American
woman. A suit must first be practical
TO find favor with her; II must also
be trim in appearance, well cut and
faultlessly tailored American design
ers and manufacturers have met these
demands Of the discriminating, and
the popular taste has been benefited
by their products.
Serge, gaberdine. broadcloth, whip
cord, or any of the strong well.woven
wool goods used for suits are chosen
for the tailor-made. Before they are
tailored they are to be shrunk,
sponged and pressed, so that they will
stand stormy weather. Certain OF
the cravenetted cloths, as serge or
covert, will repay little extra outlay
In money by their power to resist wet
weather.

results Indicate that the common people
have again come in to their own, it is
the duty of our membership to continue
their efforts to secure for the working
people some OF the benefits in legisla-

At the twenty-first annual conven-
ton of the Federation action was taken
indorsing several laws, which, in the
opinion of the delegates at that conven-
tion, will be OF benefit 10 the working
people of this state, and the executive
board, and Legislative committee, were
instructed to use every endeavor within
their power to secure their enactment
into the law. The laws indorsed were
as follows:
The repeal of the industrial commits
sion law, and amending the workmen's
compensation law in order that it NAV
be OF some real benefit to the working
people.
The enactment of an anti.injunction
law.
The enactment of semi-monthly pay

BUYS TEMPLE SITE
Makes First Payment on the
Board of Trade Building

Gain Complete Control, With Rev
enue Of S,700 Per Annum
Especial Correspondence.)

PUEBLO. Nov. l5.-At last Wednes.
day nights meeting of the Pueblo Trades
and Labor Assembly, it was voted to
purchase tho Board OF Trade building
on Union avenue, which will be con-
verteG into a Labor Temple The price
to be given for the building is S47 900
and s! 900 has been paid as a first in
stallment. The deed to the building has
been placed in escrow and is TO oe de-
livered to the Assembly after the third
payment.
The committee is now actively at
work to raise 5000 by January /. at
which time it is expected to take over
the building and move labor headuuar-
ters thereto. 1t is stated that the
present income OF the Board of Trade
building is S7,7oO per year, which, to-
Gether with the stock subscriptioa. will
make it an easy matter for the Assem-
bly, to carry out the project. Secretary
Treasurer William H Young in his re-
port to the Assembly pointed ont the
desirability of the purchase, and the fact
that the Assembly can carry the under
taking thru with an interest rate of
only so per cent on the Indebtedness
The organized labor men of Pueblo
feel highly gratified over their cam
paiCn for home of their own and the
deal made by the committee is III every
way satisfactory, being considered
great bargain. The Board of Trade
building is located on one of the main
streets of the city, almost in the heart
of the business district, and is sure to
increase in value.

indicates to our mind that the bill re-
pealing this law should receive favorable
consideration from the lawmaking body
of Colorado.
Expect Fair Consideration.
1t is the duty of our affiliated mem.
bership, thru committees, and personal
work, to impress on the representatives
and senators elect to the twenty-first
general assembly, State of Colorado, the
legislation desired by organized labor,
and that our part in the recent political
cataclysm was no incousideTabie one,
and that We expect from them fair con-
sideration in the enactment OF legislation
favorable to the working people.
Now that We have secured the cleo
tion of man to the office OF secretary
OF state who has pledged himself to be
fair to organized labor and to recognize
US in the appointment of officials Of
the labor department, we can expect
some consideration in the enforcement Of
those labor laws for which we worked
years to obtain. The past two years
the labor department has been one in
name only, and the enforcement of labor
laws has been conspicuous by its ab-
sence, and it would seem that the rec

consideration, and attempt to carry out
the aims and purposes for which that
department was created, was taken lit
orally, and that they proceeded to put
that recommendation into effect at the
polls on November I.
Should Work in Harmony.
Now that we have made a good start
let US continue the good work and unite
our influence to the end that the work
ing people Of Colorado may receive the
benefits to which they are entitled in
the enforcement of those laws enacted
for their protection, and for which they
worked years to secure. Also let US
work as unit to secure other legisla-

ROADS ATTACK THE
EICHT-HOUR DAY
Santa Fe Files Suit Against
Enforcement of the Law
Federal Court at Kansas City. Kan.
Asked to Take Jurisdiction: Other
Roads to Cooperate in Fight N

Press dispatches from New York this
week intimate that danger of nation
wide railroad strike. which was believed
to have been averted by the passage of
the Adamson eight-hour law. has not
entirely disappeared. 1t developed Mon
day, when representatives of the rail-
roads and the four brotherhoods. COM
prising 100000 employees, failed to reach
an agreement at conference in New
York, as to the proper application or
the new law. The stumbling block,
both sides admitted was the existing
mileage system of compensation.
The announcement of the latest dead
lock between the railroads and their
employees came at the conclusion of an
all lday conference between the national
conference committee of the railways
and the brotherhood chiefs. which had
been arranged in September.
General Strike Is Hinted.
We met" said Elisha Lee. chairman
of the railroad managers and the con
ference, "to exchange ideas on The appli-
cation and operation of the Adamson
law. We failed to reach an agreement,
and We are not certain that another
meeting will take place.
William C. Lee. president of the
Brotherhood of Railway Trainmen,
spokesman for the employees in the alb
sence of A. b. Garretson of the Order
of Railway Conductors, declared in
statement that in the event of evasion
by the railroads of the Adamson law
summary action would be taken by the
hrotherhoods.
He said that the strike order. which
was directly responsible for the law,
I'll l..
would not hesitate to enforce it if the
occasion warranted il.
Roads to Press Lawsuits.
The brotherhoods asked for this con-
ference" said Mr.. Lee. AT the morn
ing session we discussed the application
of the law. and found that there was no
basis upon which We could possibly
agree.
Another setback. besides the elimin.
alton of the mileage system, was the de-
termination OF the railroads to continue
their suits to determine the constitu-
tionality of the law"
Santa Fe Files Injunction.
A petition enjoining the federal dis
trict attorney and labor leaders from
putting the Adamson eight hour bill in
to effect was filed in the federal district
court of Kansas City. Kan, a few days
ago in the name of the Atchison, Topeka
4 Santa Fc railway.
The bill calls attention to agreements
with train employees, none of which, it
says, contemplate that the cmploye
shall work a fixed number of hours, but
that owing TO the nature of train SER
vice, the trip. in terms of hours or
as preferred by the men, is the
basis of compensation.

son law, and claims that it is mere
arbitrary increase in wages. The law.
says the bill is unconstitutional and
void, because it is not regulation of
interstate commerce; that is is a mere
experiment. intended as a basis for
further legislation; that it deprives the
company of its liberty without due pro-
cess of law. and that it is unworkable
and uncertain.
The bill devotes considerable space to
explaining why the company considers
the law unworkable. 1t concludes with
a statement that the railroad is willing
to guarantee employees against losses
pending final decision as TO the legality
of the law.
