N. C. Sullivan, who is in charge Of the guards

"The strike is at an end, and in accordance

are giving up their arms TO the sheriff
"The strikers have yielded in the main point
that of allowing the companies the RICH
to hire and discharge, but meanwhile
the companies. the men and the COM
munity have suffered. for q revenue of SOC, 900

spend q good deal of time in getting the trade
back. So the loss has NOT ended yet
MANY of the men are practical miners, and
they will so TO work with the rest for q while
yet. You see we have In our employ miners,
carpenters, brickiayers, engineers, braKemen,
railroad men and every other sort of man. SO
that in case of mining or railway strike We can
go right in and run the concern ourselves. We
have brought into King county some lbs men,
and with this comp aratively small force we have
broken the strike Our advantage has arisen
from the fact that we have known all
along every movement of the strikers. We have
at least one member in each of their lodges. and
all their speeches and plans have been faithfully
reported TO me- have evidence OF plots and
conspiracies which might put some of the ring
