UNIONISTS DEFEND
RIGHT TO QUIT WORK

Denver.-An audience that completely
illled the State capitol hall heard trade
unionists and Hon. Edward p. Costigan
urge joint meeting of the senate and
house industrial relations committees to
favor the repeal of Colorados cant
strike" law
solid shot against this niquity, and anti
unionists stood agfast at the clear-cut
declaration of labor that no man is
bound to respect a law that shackles him
to his work.
Grant Hamilton, representing the
American Federation of Labor, was the
principal speaker He closed with this
statement:
I'VE stand for free institutions, op-
portrnity for free thought and action
1t is Our duty, as believers in human
freedom, to maintain the spirit and the
institutions of our republic. We have
the courage to back up our contentious
and we shall be found faithful to them"
Edward L. Doyle spoke for the United
Mine Workers union, and Frank Her
mond of the Pueblo Trades and Labor
Assembly, said:
There is no division in our ranks up
on this question and we are here tonight
to tell this committee and members of
the legislature that, unless this relief
and justice is granted us at this session
of the general assembly the working peo-
pie of the State will adopt measures to
right their wrongs"
H. c. Williams, chairman of the legis-
lative committee of the railroad BROTH
erhoods, indorsed "every word that has
been said this evening by other speak
ers favoring repeal of the industrial
commission law"
Each of the four brotherhoods," he
said, "are represented at this meeting
and they are here to insist that this ses-
sion of the legislature wipe from the
statute books a law which imposes slav-
cry upon the working people"
Hon. Edward p, Costigan, twice a
candidate for governor of this State on
the Progressive ticket, said that similar
legislation in Australia and Canada fail
ed TO stop strikes, and that the federal
commission on industrial relations, con-
sisting of representatives of employers,
employees and the public, refused to in
dorse "can't-strike" proposal.
The three representative of capital"
said the speaker, "after this farthest
reaching investigation of industrial con-
ditions ever undertaken in America,
came out absolutely in opposition to any
limitation being put on the right to
strike or to lock out They rested their
conclusions 4on the advice of the most
impartial Investigators 2 throughout
America and the world"

AS TO TREASON.

The German the leak which revealed Herr Zm-
merman negotiations with Mexico and Japan is that "must
have been due to treason in America The implication is either
that America German that Germany considers
German the United States who loyal to the latter
false the Faherland There evidences that the
Government has long engaged systematic plots this
against and sovereignty that she has been nsgatng
and promoting within limits well
attacks from the outside The only russian definition
of treason is opposition to Germany
We have definitions of ourselves and
cned to think that Mr. Zmmerman agents fair
unpleaantly We really believe they
could do Germany in the European trenches than
the United States and that they would probably be less danger
Our developing very keen of smell for
German spies and most of them will surely grief and the
Mr. Zimmerman conspres against here the fewer friends
Germany will have in the United States.

THE RISING TIDE
(By Samuel Gompers.l J

It's in the air-a vibrant hope that
sees leading into tomorrow a road to
better things. It's a contagious some
thing, an infectious spirit of courage
and inspiration that extends from the
toilers of packing-house towns to those
actors behind the footlights from the
teachers in the public schools to the yet
unorganized workers in the steel plants );
from employees and clerks in the federal
government to miners delving far down
in the depths of mines. To highly skill
ed and to unskilled, to those with high
standards of living and those with low
to those American customs and ideals,
to those yet unfamiliar with the tradi-
tions and the language of our land, there
comes the vision thrilling with new op-
portunities, with the assurance of the
attainment of rights and justice.
This thing which brings hope to so
many, which points out the road to bet
ter things, is that intangible, invincible,
powerful revolutionizing force called
organization.
Organization is the way whereby the
toiers of all ages have found redress
from wrongs and have secured greater
opportunities. Organization has been
tested and found effective.
There is nothing about organization
that belongs to a particular group of
workers, to special kinds of work, or
kind of preparation for work.
Organization is universal principle
that has meaning for those who work
with their hands, with their brains, or
with both.
