SOCIAL NOTES

The congenial home of the Misses
Mary and nellie Conner, near Vail,
was the scene of d most pleasant
social function on last Wednesday
evening when they entertained more
than one hundred guests in honor of
Miss Nellie Kearney, who is Red
Cross nurse from Sioux City. Miss
Kearney was born and raised in
Crawford county and lived here I'M
til a few years ago when she went to
Sioux City, where she has completed
the nurses training at the St. Jo-
seph hospital. She recently enlisted
as a Red Cross nurse and has been
visiting her parents, Mr.. and Mrs.
John Kearney, of near Vail, prior to
receiving her call for overseas SER
vice. Miss Kearney has hosts of
friends in this community who were
very, pleased to have this occasion
to greet her. =. H..
The evening was most pleasantly
spent with dancing as the entertain
ment, the music being furnished by
the Giblin orchestra. The spacious
living. room and dining, room were
used for this purpose. At late hour

much to the CHEEKY home of the host

The sugar supplies throughout the
country, in homes, stores, factories and
bakeries, are at low ebb; the produce
ton from the American beet and
Louisiana cane crops have been disap-
pointing; the yield In Porto Rico has
likewise been smaller than anticipat-
ed, and the inability Of the United
States and the ALLIES to secure sugar
from Java and other distant sources
on account Of the Imperative call for
ships for the movement Of troops and
their supplies has materially reduced
the supply from such quarters. Added

TRAMWAY UNION
Is RECOGNIZED
OFFICIALS OF COMPANY
AGREE TO JOINT ACTION.
Petitions from Union and Company
on Proposed Wage Increase Sent
Jointly to the National War La
Dor Board at Washington.

At a meeting of the board of di-
rectors of the Denver Tramway Com
pany held Thursday afternoon formal
recognition of the newly organized
Street Railway Employees Union was
given and threatened strike of 1000
transportation men averted.
General Manager Hid and the board
of directors decided TO join with the
union in having the national war labor
board pass upon the proposed new
wage schedule for Denver, and the
matter was at oncef glazed IN the hands
of that body.
By previous agreement a committee
OF three members of the union at
tended the directors meeting and pre-
sented the mems side Of the question,
which resulted in the union being for
mally and officially recognized.
The state public utilities commits
sion Thursday announced that the
emergency 6-cent fare applied for by
the Denver Tramway Company will be
up before the commission next We'd
nesday for hearing.
In the petition submitted by the
Tramway Company it was stated that
the company was not deriving sufR-
cient revenue to pay operating ex-
penses, and the 6-cent proposal was
made to meet the emergency until the
final settlement of the fare to be
charged is made by the utilities COM
mission.
The 6-cent fare will net the Tram
way Company a revenue increase of
10 per cent, about $107 900 a year,
and only with this additional sum, the
company maintains, can operating ex-
penses be met. Should the emergen-
cy 6-cent fare be granted by the COM
mission it will be effective until per-
manent settlement of the fare ques-
ton.
The city council, in committee of
the whole, gave a heaEing Thursday
afternoon for those for and against
the initiated ordinance to grant the
Tramway Company a 6-cent fare.
The only remark made by any mem-
Der of the council during the hearing
was by Councilman Joe Rees, who said
that he believed the council should not
act upon the ordinance, but should re-
fer to the people the question Of the
Scent fare.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 2e-Labor
Day, 1913, finds organized labor in
the United States carrying forward
the worldwide program of democracy
with thrilled and purposeful enthu-
siasm that was not dreamed of a wear
ago.
1t was Just few months ago that
the organized employers were flushed
with confidence IN their power to
crush the trade union movement. To-
DAY they are withdrawing from the
attack, hopeless and amazed at the
strength of the men and women whom
they have despised. Organization of
the wage workers has become a tre-
mendous fact The creation of the
national war labor board has given a
nghtIng edge to the trade unions. La
Dor mas Kept up production during the
war, and at the same time it has kent
up ITS own war for democracy against
the Junkers among the employers. To-
Gay these Junkers are broken force.
One year from now-who can predict
the depths to which they may have
fallen?
Justice for Labor.
Frank P. Walsh, who made an in
ternational educational force out Of
the commission on industrial rela-
Mons, and who now is the bigxest
personal factor "a the national war
labor board, has a message for the
wage workers of America which Is
published elsewhere in this issue.
walsh talks as a man of courage to
tnose who are qualified by courage to
hear. He talks about democracy. He
talks about justice for labor, in the
courts and in the shops. If he had
the genius of a Bernard Shaw he
could not have put more of truth into
lew words than when he said:
democracy surely means that peo-
pie shall control the condition of their
nves, And no one knows better than
the trade unionist that the average
wage worker has had very little con-
troi over the conditions of his life.
especially over that part of his life
job" NO
Burieson Has New Vision.
This sentiment has been impressed.
during the past few days, upon that
eminent public servant, Postmaster
General Burleson. Exactly as was
forecast in this correspondence a
month ago, he has discovered that he
cannot sweep back the ocean of the
labor movement with the broom of
his personal views. Now nice, neat.
brief little notice has been tackled up
IN the offices of the Western Union
branch of the government telegraph
service, announcing that all telegra-
piers who were dismissed because of
their membership in the Commercial
Telegraphers Union are to be rein
stated. Some pretense was made. at
hrst, that the men were merely to be
re-employed, as new men. But the
fact developed that they were to be
reinstated with all their seniority
rights
