DIR. Matthews of Seattle has started
out on crusade to put stop to Grim
inal waste Of money and energy in the
management Of the business of the city
and county, and favors uniting city
and county governments. Attention
was called to this matter in these col
umns nearly year ago. Why should
duplication of work be permitted?
AT present every dollar of the tax
payers money is handled by two sets
of men. Politics just dirty politics

ats all in the days work." said
W. l.. Morrissey, state labor commits
sioner, as he laid aside the records con-
tanning one days activities Of his
Office.
And what a record it was!
The commissioner smiled with sat
isfaction as he related the story of
how, after three months effort, he
had secured a pension of $50 a month
from the Colorado Fuel and Iron COM
pany for Steve Gulash, a Slavonian
who had not been in the employ of the
company fer seven years, and who, 1t
was clearly established, was not legal
ly entitled to financial relief from the
company.
Corporation With Heart
Gulash, who lives in Pueblo, went to
Morrissey's headquarters three months
ago and sought the good offices of the
labor commissioner after all others
appealed to for aid had turned him
down. The commissioner, after many
conferences and much correspondence,
obtained a pension Of $50 month for
Gulash.
"The charge is daily made" said
Commissioner Morrissey, that corpor-
ations have no SOULS" yet, here we
have one which shows It has a big
heart in dealing with a man who is
hopelessly out Of the running from de
fective eyesight and providing at least
his board and room for lifetime.
cannot refrain from giving credit
where credit is due
Forces Employees Reinstatement
The commissioner grabbed another
record and il showed that in one hour
after complaint had reached his Office
he had not only forced garage owner
of Denver to re-employ n machlnist
discharged for activity in behalf of
the newly formed Auto Machinists
Union. but had sent word down the
line in auto row that employers must
expect prosecution il they fire" men
for joining n legitimate society. The
commissioners speed in getting results
probably broke all records in the his
tory Of the office.
He tossed about a bunch Of wage
claims and among them fourteen
against Harry Hokasana Construc-
tion company. The commissioner
grabbed his hat and in ten minutes
was in the Office of W. f. Foley, dis
trict attorney, asking that official TO
prosecute the contractor for giving the
men short checks in payment for
wuges amounting in all 10 sls6 and
due for work on the Fall River road
out of Estes park.
To Lecture for Y. NJ. c. A.
The Bulletin reporter dropped into
the commissioners Office n half hour
later and found him writing n letter
accepting an appointment on the fac
ulty of the Y. NJ. C. A. for the winter
course of lectures. He is to choose
the labor subjects for the course and
provide the speakers.
The state official, despite the busy
period, has n sense of humor. He

He reports prospects good for un-
ion agreement with the Fort Collins

n non-union printshop, about the only
one in northern Colorado.
Barney" Slack is still in the game,
says the Wyoming Labor Journal.
While many of his old friends have
lost track of him since his going to
Casper, it is fact that this Beau

busily at work getting out the daily
issues of the Casper Press and is
looking younger with the setting of
every sun.

Cigarmakers
(By J. W. Sanford.)

A slight falling off is noticeable in
the cigar industry just now, due to
the labor troubles in the Northwest
and Southwest, and as a result one of
our larger shops is laying off for a
week or so until conditions are again
normal. For the first time in many
months we have few members on the
out-of-work list.
Mr.. Kirby and Mr.. Underhill, rep
resenting the Workers COOPERATIVE
Association, were granted the floor at
our Tuesday evening meeting in an
effort to interest our members in
cooperative plan of purchasing the
every day necessities.
Circular appeal sent out from the
joint unions of Chicago was favorably
acted on and substantial donation
made them for the assistance of their
members on strike.
Reports from Ogden and further
west are to the effect that trade is
not as good as it was during the sum-
mer. Changes in the internal revenue
on cigars is interfering with the cigar
business just now.
Fred Hilse left this week for his
home in Visalia, Cal, after a three
months stay in Denver in the hope
that his health would be improved. He
was disappointed in this, however. and
is making the chanRe De1ore tne coiu
weather sets in here.
Puritan Bond, Copyright, Ranger,
Best Value, Queen City Winners, Hag-
ler's Rose and High Altitude cigars
of the sc variety are not made by
members of our union and do not
bear the label of the Cigarmakers.
C. A. Beck, formerly of the firm Of
Hobler & Beck, is confined to the hos
pital in Boulder suffering from in
juries to his legs as result of rail-
road accident which he figured in last
week.
A circular letter will be sent various
labor organizations in the state call
ing attention to our label, also to the
non-union cigars being made in Dem
yer. which should protect our friends
against goods that are being sold as
fair that are not.
Your only safeguard against cheap
productions of any kind is TO see that
the label of that respective craft is on
the package containing them. II the
label is not there they are not made
by members of organized labor.
Manufacturers that employ union
labor are the ones entitled to your
support. Union men and women have
no excuse for patronizing non-union
products.
