Black Hills Miners Indulge In Some pxly
Threats.
THE labor troubles in the Black Hills
ARG as ;uming serious phase. The
riot of last week on the Annie Creak
was the outgrowth of an agitation of
the wage question. For many years
the lowest pay for the men in the m IN es
and mills has been $3.50 per day. THE
Homestake Company, the largest pro-
ducer OF gold in America, notified ,lle
minnrs' union that it would redrre
their wages to $3 a day or entirely IS. s.
pend operations, and gave the mil,t'.s
q wask to decide whether they desired
to work on the lower scale or quit.
Matters between the Homestake C'usl-
pany, which employs some $500 1ncil,
and the union are still pending. The
business men OF Deadwood and Lead
City adopted resolutions condemniny :
the action of the miners in assault no
the laborers last week on the Annie
Creek.
In retaliation. the miners of Llad
City. Central City, and sur.ound,n
CAMPS held q mass meeting in Cen.ral
City. Resolutions were adopted da-
nouncihg the Deadwood Business NJ ,nu
Protective Association. The mi:,erG
present at the meeting pledged them
selves to boycott all Deadwood business
houses and to do all in their power ta
injure all Deadwood enterprises and
to make every effort to have the ccunty
scat removed, eitherby state authority
or dynamite.
The citizens of Dcadwood held a
mass meeting relative to the matter.
The question is becoming very IL reat-
ening and serious results are feared.
