less and heartless employers, finally took the
only means left them and struck against a
continuance of the conditions forced upon

Whereas, The trades and labor assembly of
st. Paul heartily sympathizing with their
unfortunate brothers in their struggle for the
necessaries of life and believing that financial
assistance is absolutely necessary at this time
| to enable them to win the battle which they
are waging against oppression; therefore,
| Resolved, That this assembly calls on all
affiliated unions to assist them in their hour
OF need as far as possible by contributions
| of money from funds at their disposal
Resolved further That this assembly do
| nate the sum of $25 to aid our SUFFERING
| brothers and their families, and that the
| treasurer be instructed to forward the same
| at once to the proper officer of the Interna-
national Mine Workers union.
