Scranton, Pa., July 10.—Trade un-
ionists in this city have decided to
build a labor temple. The Central
Labor union has named a commit-
tee to prepare plans for financing
the project and carry them to com-
pletion. It is proposed to erect the
building in the central part of the
city and equip it with a large audi-
torium, where conventions may be
held, halls for union meetings, of-
fices, stores, reading rooms, par-
lors, library and swimming pool.
Money raised by the union’s Labor
Day program each year will be de-
voted to the building fund.

and off street cars and other matters
pertient to the purpose in view. This
plan has proved popular with young
and old, being entertaining as well
as instructive.
The need of such educational work
is obvious as indicated by the great
number of accidents in the streets.
While the automobile is responsible
for many of these, yet the electrics
and horsedrawn vehicles contribute
a considerable quota also. In a
great number of cases the victim is
himself to blame. This is true of
youngsters who are prone to ignore
the regular crossings and dodge out
from behind a wagon which cuts
off their view, into the middle of the
street directly in front of a moving
car or vehicle, oftentimes with tragic
results. Against this practice, child-
ren should be particularly warned,
for it frequently happens even
though the motorman or the driver
of an automobile or a truck be ever
so careful or vigilant, he is unable
to pull up in time to prevent a dis-
aster.
These safety campaigns have con-
siderable practical merit and ought
to result in reducing the number of
accidents on the streets. - They
should be inaugurated everywhere,
especially at this time when the va-
cation season is about to open and
so many children will be at liberty
and left largely to their own de-
vices. While it is impossible to keep
some of them from using the streets
for playgrounds it is possible to im-
press upon them the need of observ-
ing caution and pointing out to them
the things they should not do and
the risks they should avoid taking.

Denver, July 10.—Membership in
organized labor will be trebled in
the next generation, predicted Bish-
op Olmstead in his annual address
before the diocesan council of the
Protestant Episcopal church. The
speaker criticised the unwillingness
of employers to listen to the pleas of
their unionist employes in a plea for
a prompt settlement of the Colorado
coal strike.
“Conference will not hurt any just
cause or any truth,” he declared,
“and while we may lose something
of value to our own conception of
things involved, we gain on the
whole in the power of making our
sympathy effective.”

heated kitchen or will you let us install a modern

The action taken by the Interna-
tional "Seamen’s Union, which is
holding its annual convention in
Boston this week, in adopting reso-
lutions condemning steamship lines
for maintaining undermanned ves-
sels and lack of skill among their
crews, is most commendable. Men
who have followed the sea as a vo-
cation through all their lives, it
would seem, are well able to judge
as to the conditions that exist on
sea-going vessels. It is significant
that the very things suggested by
Andrew Furuseth, president of the
Seamen’s Union, who was one of the
commission representing the United
States at the London Safety Con-
vention, if in operation, would prob-
ably have greatly decreased the loss
of life in the St. Lawrence river dis-
aster. It is earnestly hoped that the
action of the convention, which in-
dorsed the La Follette Seamen’s
bill, will prove successful when that
bill comes up for final action. The
bill, which is described as a “conser-
vative” one, is, however, considered
a reasonably effective measure, and
its passage is strongly urged by the
Seamen’s union.—Worcester Labor

Holyoke, Mass., July 10.—Officers
of the Plumbers’ union report that
practically every employer has
agreed to the new wage schedule of
$22.50. The union is enjoying a 44-
hour week, which will be continued
under the new schedule.
The great secret of success in
life is to be ready when your
opportunity comes.
Business opportunies call for
ready money.
Save even a small portion of
your monthly income; you
will soon have money work-
ing for you and will be on the
only certain road to wealth.

Denver, Colo., July 10.—(Special)
Colorado is able to manage her own
affairs, such is the report to be made
to President Wilson by the state
legislative committee which inves-
tigated the Ludlow affair, according
to a report at the state capitol.
That statement would probably
be true if Colorado governed her-
self, but it is an utter falsehood,
considering that Governor Ammons,
a pliant lickspittle of the coal opera
tors, is attempting to run the affairs
of the state.
“How is Colorado any better able
to manage her own affairs now than
she was before the federal troops
came into the field?” is the ques-
tion her real citizens are asking.
Ammons, the person who bowed
and scraped and licked the boots of
John D. Rockefeller and his repre-
sentatives in Colorado, is still in of-
fice ready to repeat his anarchistic
attempt to break the strike at the
expense of the state.
Adjutant General Chase, who rode
down the women and children in
Trinidad, who kicked Sarah Slator
savagely in the breast, is still head
of the national guard.
Linderfelt, Hamrock, and every
other leader of the militiamen who
destroyed the Ludlow tent colony,
murdering and cremating nineteen
men, women and children at Lud-
low in the most terrible slaughter
in industrial history, are still mem-
bers of that body.
The gunmen who, armed with
state equipment and operators’ ma-
chine guns, mowed down the inno-
cents, are still in good standing.
There has been no change what-
soever in the personnel of the oper-
ators tools who run the state gov-
ernment, and who tyrannized the
strike zone for seven months before
Ludlow.
If the federal troops are with-
drawn from the field, the operators
will soon cause enough trouble to
provide the governor with an excuse
to send the scab herding militia
back to the strike district.
There is no sane reason to ve-
lieve that Chase and his gunmen
will do any other than before—ter-
rorize the strikers, their wives and
children and possibly slaughter the
innocents again as they did at Lud-
low.
But the militia is to be reorganiz-
ed. What do you think of that?
Yes, sir; the legislative committee
think so and so do many others.
Suppose it is reorganized, who do
you think would care to wear the
cloak of the Colorado national
guard, stained with the blood of the
innocent men. women and children
of Ludlow who, unarmed and un-
protected in any way, were slaught-
ered?
Who would care to take the place
of Adjutant General Chase, know-
ing that, with Ammons in the chair,
the head of the National guard must
be prostituted to the coal operators
and shoot down men, women and
children.
Who would join a national guard
defamed by such murderers as Ham-
rock and Linderfelt, for certainly as
head of the gunmen militia at Lud-
low, they were as responsible as
any for the slaughter of the inno-
cents?
As a matter of fact, the reorgani-
zation of the Colorado national
guard is a joke. There may be
changes in the official heads of the
organization, but they will always
be under the command of command-
er-in-chief, Elias M. Ammons, cow-
puncher and tool of the coal opera-
tors.

J. A. HERRING,
In many cities about the country
the street railway companies, and in
some instances by civic organiza-
tions, have instituted “safety” cam-
paigns with the purpose of point-
ing out and impressing the public,
especially children, with the dan-
gers of street travel and also regard-
ing the precautions that should be
taken to avoid them.
The methods adopted to direct at-
tention to these matters are various.
The advertising columns of the
newspapers are utilized; circulars
and letters are sent through the
mails, as in Boston, for instance,
where the Chamber of Commerce
has employed this method to reach
parents and request them to warn
their children of the perils they are
exposed to when playing in the
streets. In some cities the movies
have been pressed into service at
which free exhibitions are given pre-
senting object lessons in how acci-
dents are liable to occur, demon-
strating the proper way to get on
