Mckinney commanded the entrance and
popped at everyone who ventured to glance
al him from his peephole, The fellow was
enraged. He cried that he would hurt
somebody and blow his brains out He
would prefer death to prison.
After eight hours he consented to talk
with Sheriff Kelley, who proposed getting
the others out by opening wall and then
smoking Mckinney with straw and sui

Military Aid Has Been Asked for and Promised
Union Miners Win Not Allow 'scabs'

BOISE CRY. Ida, May 2L-[Special tele-
gram to TIE HERALD. For several weeks
trouble has been brewing in the Coenr
d'Alene mines between the mine owners
and the Miners union. 1t originated over
some differences as to the amount to be
paid car men. The miners insisted that as
these men were miners, they should have
full miners wages, and the mine owners
iaid they would not pay this amount.
1t seems that the Miners union is under
ontrol of certain parties who are running
he organization in way that is not for
She real interest of the miners. The mine
owners aver they will not employ any man
who is a member of the union. They say
if the men will withdraw from the
union, they will employ them, but they
absolutely refuse to be dictated TO by the
union.
Recently seventy-eight scab miners were
shipped in from Michigan. 1t was feared
then that trouble would be had and per-
hGps bloodshed, but the miners maintained
their determination to keep within the law.
Some two hundred injunction papers were
served on different members Of the Min
ers' union to prevent them from interior
ing with the men who were about to com
mence work on the mines.
Members OF the Mining union were
peaceable up to today, when they in somt

Austin Deacon has found that the author
