One is the pusher. the other the

I notice you have been talking
good deal about the wrongs of the
workers and the evils of capitalism,
you have been going to socialist
meetings and consorting with parlor
bolsheviks. Several books of the
literature of protest" stripe are on
your shelves.
Also you have been quoting from
the gifted faultfinders in the United
States Senate and the newspapers
that whine and sneer.
Now, liSteni
As 1 said. there are two classes of
people, And I'd rather see you break
your leg or lose an eye or get con-
sumption than to get the complaining

The pushers are too busy to COM

The pusher says: There's something
wrong with this world. I'm not get

The Colorado amended pest law

ether rodent pests, weeds and plant
diseases" Over two million acres ure

common barberry, on account of it
harboring the wheat rust, is being
removed from the entire state.
The law can be as successfully
used in the control of the poisonous

AGRICULTURE LABOR PROBLEM

For the development of the re-
sources Of the west nothing would
help so much as an abundance OF
available farm labor.
BY this is not meant school child
rem, women, store clerks, city buns,
tIamps or labor that must be forced
to work.
Organized labor, composed of
skilled men and women in the trades
unions would lose nothing from
abundant farm labor.
San Francisco labor leaders are
said to oe dissatisfied with the out
come of the farm labor conference
held in the Ferry building recently.
1t is said that the conference was
dominated by farm interests that
We're not inclined to give the workers
the consideration labor men believe
should have been given.
In spite of the apparent increas-
ing degree of unemployment in cities
the conference maintained that there
is and will be shortage of farm
labor.
The conference went On record to
petition Congress to remove all bars
to immigration in order that unres-
tricted immigration may flow into
the United States.
The American Federation Of
Labor will oppose any legislation in
this direction.
As it stands, organized labor uses
the high cost of living to keep wages
Mt a figure so high no farmer can
afford to employ it, and the cost of
farm production cannot come down
without larger supply of cheaper
farm labor.

Claude Christian is able to be out
again after several weeks in the hos
pital with an injured hip which inju-
ryhe received in the Leyden mines.
Claude says he owes his life to the
faithfulpess of the mule he was driv-
ing hitched to the little coal cars. He
made the mistake of getting off of
the car on the wrong side, and was
caught between the timbers on the
side of the tunnel and car. He told
the mule to stop, and it Immediately
stopped in its tracks. Otherwise Mr..
Christian would have been rolled and
crushed. AS it was one of his hips
was pretty badly smashed up, but as
he is a healthy young man and Wig
orous. he has rapidly recovered and
expects soon to be able to go to wrk
again. 1t is pretty certain he won't
get caught that way again.

USE COMMON SENSE NOW

The Anaconda Copper Mining
Co. has reduced its quarterly divi-
dend from $500 to $1.5O share.
Twenty-three cent copper means
los of something like $500 share
in annual earnings,
The case of the Anaconda comp
any is simple typical of other min
ing and industrial corporations.
They are getting back to normal
basis.
The thousands of Stockholders
have therefore received cut in their
wages, that is the return in dividends
on money invested has been reduced.
Although the fixed price of copper
has been 26 ccent u mound, miners
hrve been paid OH basis of 30
cent price.
Now copper has dropped to %
cents Before the war wages were on

Of 90 cents ut which rate wnges were

metal will not feel cnclincd to main
