On June |, 1920, occurred the fire in the Elks'
building Fifth and Gold one of the costliest fires
in Albuquerque history No need to dwell on
the miserable work of the fire department on
that occasion. Thousands of people saw the
mediocre efforts of Albuquerque's fire fighters.
They lacked leadership They lacked initiative
The boys from the Santa Fe shops-with their
fire equi pment-rushed to the fire and worked
rings aorund the city paid hremen. Volunteers
from the spectators-men who had been flremen
in their earlier days-pitched in and helped to
save the building from total destruction. The
Elks we're game sports. They did not criticize
the fire department. The city commissioners,
disappointed did not censure the fremen. The
Elks got busy. A thousand or more of them sub
scrbed $500 each and the work was begun of re-
building the club house at cost of approx
mately 100000. Everybody conceded that in
fighting the fire the firemen lacked the pep and
the punch. They lacked the do and dare.
Frankly it appeared that they did not know
their business The city brought Fire Chief Wray
from Ell Paso to look over the situation and re-
port to the commissioners. Then the city OBJ

report at the Y NJ. c. A. for fifteen minutes each
day to be instructed in setting up exercises. The
idea was to take advantage of the Y. equipment
and instructor and to get the hremen into condi
tion-to make them hard as nails, SO they could,
in fighting fire, skin up ladders and carry hose
and handle the nozzle Did the fremen take
kindly to the idea? They did not. They baked,

P Perfect ~ Armj o., Grant W Anderson
Jack Lane o. F. Brighman
Roy M Cook car nj si MARITIME
That was the first step in the trouble between
the flremen and the city officials In order to be
IN position to compel the city officials to con-
cede to their demands, the firemen organized
union, affiliated with the American Federation
of Labor. The constitution of the union proyid-
ed that 1T is considered inadvisable to strike"
The City Commission, believing that policemen,
tremen and other city employees, should not or
game into a union, with possibility of using
the strike as club and weapon, asked the men
to dlsorganlze Or leave the service. The men re-
fused to disorganize and left the service, which
was their privilege.
Paid labor agitators got hold of the ex-hremen,
tried to make heroes out of them and circulated
petitions for an election, having as its object the
recall of Commissioners Walter M Connel, John
NJ. Reynolds and j. T. Mclaughlin, and the
amendment of the city charter so as to prevent
the city manager from discharging employees
because of their utilization with any organization
not prohibited by state or federal laws The cleo
ton will be held on May 20. The paid labor agl-
tators are seeking to conduct their campaign on
the theory that the members of the city commits
sion whose recall is sought are opposed in prin-
ciple to labor organizations. Nothing is further
from the truth. The city commissioners do OBJ
ect to having governmental forces organized
into union, believing that it is absolutely con-
trary to Americanism. 1t is but a step from or
ganization of the hremen to organization of the
police department. and if on principle it is right
for fremen and policemen to be organized into
a union it is right for soldiers, sailors and ma
rines to organize. If this be true, the American
government is doomed and the sooner the peo-
pie realize the situation the better
The campaign scheme of the labor agitators is
to recall the present three commissioners, hope
full that the two remaining commissioners, under
charter provisions, will select three men to re-
place the recalled commissioners who are favor
able to plan whereby radicals will acquire
complete possession Of the city hall and conduct
the city government not for the benefit OF all the
people, but for the benefit of those who believe IN
class government.
1t is test of good government, OF Amerlcanlsm.
Doyou want to turn the city government over
to the radicals? If not, vote against the recall
of the commissioners and against the proposed
charter amendment.

The Inside of the Story

In order that the people may understand the
controversy between the city commission and
the discharged fremen, it is important for them
to know the inside of the story albuquerque
maintains two fire stations at a cost to the tax
payers of the community of over thirty thousand
dollars year One station is in the lowlands.
The other is in the highlands. The city commits
sion equipped the fire stations with all the APP
paratus required by a city of thirty thousand
people. Other departments of the city were per-
mitted to suffer in order that the fire department
Nigh be kept up to the highest possible stand
ard. The flremen were given the highest pos
slble pay. When the commission-manage form
of government was organized the men were
working on a twenty -four hour shift. The COM
missioners, at the request of the fremen, gave
them two raises in wages, gave them the double
platoon system, adding number of additional
men and making it possible for one shift to work
nights, the other days. Apparently everything
was in first class shape with the fire department

has happened to the owners of Sc

1T may be little comforting to
the country merchant to under.
stand that the big mail order hous.
es are losing values faster than he
is. 1t may be some consolation to
the farmer to be advised that the
stock in automobile factories is shot
to pieces much worse than is the
price OF wheat.
But as a matter Of fact, the les
son is not one OF selfish feeling, but
should be understood by all kinds
of interests and all kinds of people
When prices go down in Wall
street they almost certainly do
the same thing in Hutchinson, Kan
When the automobile factory closes
down. the farmer will not get as
good prices for his wheat. When
steel stock takes slump, it has
some mysterious, but absolutely Ger.
tain connection with the price of
tobacco, and the hog market.
I introduce this as another ar.
gument why it is only a display OF
Ignorance for one person to de
nounce another class OF people in
the country of profiteering off Of
his adverses. With few exceptions,
the rulc is not broken that all class.

FIRST MINER TO RECEIVE BEN
EFT FROM WILL OF H. c. BLACK
War Veteran Sent To Johns Hopkins
Hospital BY Coal Mans Bequest

Arrangements are being made to
send Ray Kaefer, of Ocean, near
Frostburg, to Baltimore for treat
ment under the provisions of the will
Of H. Crawford Black, of Baltimore,
who died on March % last. Mr. Black
set aside 100000 as an endowment
the proceeds of which are to be used
to defray the expenses of coal mine
workers of Allegany and Garrett
counties who might be sent to Johns
Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, for
treatment or for surgical attention
Mr. Kaefer, who is a World War
veteran, underwent an operation for
appendicitis about three years ago,
from which he never recovered. His
condition is daily growing more
acute.
If Mr.. Kaefer goes to the hospital
he will have been the first miner to
have taken advantage of the late Mr..

IN MEMORIAM.

In memory of our dear companion
and mother who died one year ago
today, November Sth, 1920:
Yes, sad and sudden was the call
For our dear mother who was loved
by all;
We never thought that on that day
Our dear one would be called away.
God took her home-it was His will
But in our hearts we love her still.
Her memory is as fresh today
As in that hour she passed away.
1t seems unreal that she is gone
Her voice is heard no more;.
That she has crossed deaths sombeI
tide
And reached the other shore.
| miss her in the evening time,
When busy cares are DER,
As | sit and watch the stars,
Where we've often sat before.
o, could l see her once again,
As in sweet days gone by
When she was walking by my side,
And knew not death was nigh.
But | must wait till l have done
With time and earthly things;
| cannot fly to that blest house
Till | have found my wings.
