supreme court affirmed the order of
District Judge Dickson, and so ended
one of the boldest and most fragrant
attempts of organ Zed greed, obstin-

union movement to oppress the work

METZ RODGERS IS
FOR THE CHILDREN
SILVERTON LABOR MAN
VOTED RIGHT IN HOUSE.
Enters Righteous Protest Against
Being Published as Voting to Keep
Little Ones Enslaved in the
Colorado Beet Fields.

Representative Metz Rodgers Of Sill
verton voted right on the child labor
bill. There are two men of the same
name in the house, tho there is a
slight difference in the spelling-Rod-
gers of Silverton and Rogers of Den
yer. In last weeks issue of The Bull
letin there was an article reciting the
action taken by the house in killing
the child labor bill by a vote of 80 to
%. At the time of going TO press the
official house calendar was not acces-
sIble, so The Bulletin printed the aye
and nay vote as it appeared in the
Denver Post, which placed both Rod
gers and Rogers as voting to kill the
bill.
Metz Rodgers called at The Bulle-
tin Office Saturday to enter a right
eous protest. His kick was all the
more deserving. for The Bulletin edi-
tor should have known from long ex-
perience that the Denver Post legis-
lative reports are not good authority
upon which to base a news article for
a labor paper. Mr.. Rodgers said that
he did not care so much about being
misrepresented in the daily papers,
but that he wanted his record printed
right in The Bulletin because the boys
in the San Juan district looked to The
Bulletin for the records of members of
the legislature on all labor matters.
We are more than glad to make this
correction because Metz Rodgers is
an old-time member of the Western
Federation of Miners and is now in
the railroad transportation service and
a brotherhood member.
In order that readers of The Bulle-
tin may keep the record straight as TO
how members of the house voted on
the child labor bill, we herewith re
print the official vote, taken from the
house journal:

COLORADO MADE CIGARS
SUPERIOR TO ANY.
Build Up Home Payrolls Instead of
Patronizing Eastern Concerns Which
Do Nothing to Help You; Over
100 Busy Factories Here.

Colorado smokers consume between
3O,000,000 and 40,000,00O cigars an
nually, which would make Watch Our
Smoke" an appropriate slogan for the
state, had not our progenitors put
mil Sine Numine" on the state seal
"a phrase that has nothing whatever
to do with Smokes
But of these 10000, 900 cigars that
go up in smoke in Colorado every year,
about 100000 are manufactured
here. That fact is deplorable, for the
cigar manufacturers of Colorado make
just as fine perfectos, panatellos and
other shapes as are made in Havana
the home of good cigars. Consid-
ering their price, just as fine tobacco
and just as much skill enters into
their making as the Cuban product.
However, the purchase tribute due
their excellence is constantly growing,
not only in our own state, but thruout
the entire West. Colorado-m made ci-
gars are finding an ever-increasing
market in all states west of the Rocky
Mountain line, and the manufacturers
are finding it difficult to keep up with
the cash orders for their products.
Have a Large Payroll.
There are over 100 cigar factories
in Colorado and more than thousand
sale of Colorado-made cigars. The
cigarmakers earn from SIG to $50 a
week and the total makes a payroll of
respectable size, all Of which is prac-
ticnlly spent in this state.
Denver's largest cigar factory en-
ploys 250 people now and II is con-
stantly seeking more skilled workers

The makers Of Colorado-made cigars
are not asking any favors in market
ing their goods, for their products are
the equal in the point Of materials,
skill in making and price to any made
in the world
This is not any extravagant claim,
as the smokers Of their product Will
, testify.
Busy Scene of n Factory.
The interior Of a cigar factory pre-
scnts one Of the busiest scenes to be
found in any industry. Two hundred
men and women workers are seated
nt long tables, each dcNtrously en-
gagged placing the leaves of tobacco
together and rolling them in a bind
err in the rough form of cigar, then
putting them in wooden mold, from
which they are taken after a short
stay and the wrapper roller on them.

them in cedar boxes, from which they
are retailed TO the public.
Color ado Made Are Best
At least three kinds of tobacco and
sometimes ms many as six, seven or
eight different kinds of tobacco are
used in the making of cigar, depend
ing upon the brand or kind. With the
exception of the binder" leaves, which
are grown in Connecticut, all of the
tobacco that enters into Colorado-made
cigars comes from Cuba, which pro
duces the finest tobacco grown in the
world.

STATE INSURANCE
BIG VICTORY FOR EFFECTIVE
COMPENSATION LAWS.
United States Supreme Court Upholds
Compulsory State Insurance in De
cision on Washington Case.

NEW YORK, March ia final
victory in an eight years campaign
for effective workmen's compensation
legislation has been won now that the
United States supreme court has up
held the New York compulsory COM
pensation law, the Iowa elective COM
pensation law, and the Washington
compulsory state industrial insurance
law" was the comment of Secretary
John B. Andrews of the American As
sociation for Labor Legislation in a
statement today.
The influence of these decisions"
he declared, will profoundly affect the
future development Of social insurance
in America"
of particular significance. according
to the American Association for Labor
Legislation. is the decision in the
Washington case when considered in
connection with the strong labor senti-
ment in favor of excluding profit
making insurance companies from
both the accident and the health in
surance fields. 1t is pointed out with
reference to this tendency, that Ohio
has. by recent enactment, decisively
reinforced her earlier efforts in this
direction. and that a British Columbia
commission investigating the variuos
types of administration of compensa-
ton laws in the United States has
placed upon the method of exclusive
state accident insurance the stamp of
impartial official approval.

Especial Corrc.pondcnccD

ST. PAUL, Mimi, March 12.-Or-
rnnizcd labor has scored another glo-
rious victory in Minnesota. The field
of battle in this case was our highest
judicial tribunal, the supreme court of
the state.
This court has high reputation
thruout the country for its fairness
and breadth of view, particularly in
issues involving the working people,
and its good repute in this respect is
based on n solid foundation. The su-
preme court of Minnesota has always
been able to see clearly and act fear
lessly in all cases appealed to it, no
matter how able and strenuous the
efforts TO befog the issues have been,
and in the case under consideration
that eminent tribunal has well sus-
tained its high standing, correctness
and cogency of reasoning and its un-
wavering determination to do justice
to all comers, whether they be of
high or low degree.
Early last summer the George j.
Grant Construction company of this
city obtained in the district court n
temporary restraining order against
the st, Paul Building Trades Council.
its officers, the unions affiliated with
the Council and their officers and men,
bers, charging them with unlawfully
interfering with the business of the
company in declaring it unfair to or
ganized labor and persuading work
ingmen to refuse to work for it or
any person or firm holding subcon-
tracts from or under it.
Heavy Guns Brought Forward.
The Grant company then applied for
an injunction against the defendants

cxhaustively discussed before Hon.
Frederick N. Dickson, one of the
judges of the Ramsey county district
court.

Sunday afternoons regular meet
ing of the Denver Trades and Labor
Assembly was honored by the pres
ence of four members of the twenty
first general assembly who are stand
ing four-square for labor measures.
They are Senator Perry c. Dunlap of
Pueblo, Senator Samuel W. DeBusk
of Trinidad, Representative Arthur d.
Meyer of Denver, and Representative
present by special invitation of the
Assembly. Senator DeBusk intro
duced the bill to repeal the industrial
commission law in the senate, and
Representative Meyer fathered simi-
lar measure in the house. Both have
fought valiantly in the cause of labor
against great odds. A good part of
the session was given over to ad-
dresses by these legislators and the
delegates frequently indicated their
interest by hearty applause.
Senator Dunlap was introduced by
President Thornton as the first speak
er. He served in the twentieth gen.
eral assembly as a member of the
house, where he had clean record on
labor measures.

Dunlap was formerly a member of
the Plasterers Union in Pueblo and
president of the Pueblo Trades and
Labor Assembly many years ago. He
is now a successful contracting plas-
terer and has two sons working for
him who are members of the union.
Dunlap was a member of the Colorado
constitutional convention twenty-three
years ago which gave women the right
