HEADQUATE RS A. r. U.
COOK COUNTY JAIL,
CHICAGO JULY %, 1894.
To the American Public.
1t is almost universally conceded
that the Pullman Company, through
the oft repeated reduction of wages,
excessive rents and many other caus-
es, has previously wronged his en-
ployes, and that whatever may be
said about the crest strike which re-
suited In consequence of such griev-
ance, the arbitrary refusal of said
Pullman Company to submit to arbi-
tration in any form (even to decide |
tho question if there was anything to
arbitrate), it Is proof positive that
said company had no faith in the
justice of its cause and fears the dis
closurers that are certain to result
from honest investigation, and in
view of the heavy losses entailed
upon the country such obstancy on
the part of the Pullman Company is
deserving of the severest condemna-
ton.
We propose that the Pullman
Company shall be brought to justice
md in way that shall not necessi-
'ate strike with its attending evils.
We have faith in the American
people. They uphold justice. They
owe fair play. And now, in the
lame of justice and fair play, we ap-
zeal to the great American people,
o every man and every good woman,
lot to ride in Pullman car until the
'ullman company does justice to its
mployes. Let the cars run abso-
ntely empty. No friend Of labor,
10 friend of humanity, will occupy a
'erth or seat in Pullman car. Lot !
his policy be inangurated and we !
I'LL then see how long the railway
ompanies will be bound by the con- t
ract5, as they have induced the
eople to believe, to haul Pullman
ars.
We propose to continue the fight 10
sainst the Pullman company a
trough good and evil report and S
ithout regard to consequences until a
lstice shall be done, There will be
D surrender. We shall use every
and lawful means to press A
e contest. 1t is requested that all
,pers throughout the land favorable
labor, to justice, to humanity.
py this statementin full and keep
standing as long as possible.
Earnestly appealing to the great
iblic to aid us in tins unequal con-
st and relying with implicit faith :
ION the final and powerful triumph
the right, We subscribe ourselves.
