the same with .f it's azs
T During the street car strike OF q few
years ago, when the men compromised
on a ten per cent. reduction in wages,
they were promised that as soon as the
receipts amounted to $500 day the cut
would be restored. When the receipts
reached that figure committee of the
employees waited upon the company's
manager and endeavored to secure that
which was promised. The company de-
MED ever making such a promise, and
from that emanated the dissension that
ended with the strike of one year ago.
During the last strike, when they Sc
cured a number of men to take the
places of the men on strike. they made
another promise to the men, that after
they shall have worked for the COM
pany for a period of nine months, they
should receive an increase of wages.
The time for the increase, so the men
say, was due in February, and they
reasonably expected the promised in
crease with their February wages.
But their answer was the same: "They
did not remember making any such
PROMISE
or course there will not be another

ply going to quit, and look for work
with more money in it. There is no
doubt but that they will be successful
because one would not have to obtain
a very good job to do betterthan they
do.
But the action Of the company only
again proves that they soon forget
| their friends, those who surrendered
| the friendship of many, their manhood.
and almost everything good that they
possessed, to help the company out of
| their peck of trouble. And this is their
| reward-the same old story of ingrat-
itude. 1t is another striking proof that
| it does not pay in the long run to take
another's place during strike. Fav-
| ors of that kind to a company are soon
| forgotten in their greed for profits.

CHECK on FRAME STRUCTURES.
Building Inspector to Take Steps Ia

There are more small frame buildings.
veritabe fire traps, within the fire
limits now than there should be, and
an increase of them means more risk
and consequently higher insurance
rates for the owners of brick buildings
and the people occupying them.
The ordinance allows repairs to be
made on frame buildings already with
IN the limits, but some people have
taken advantage Of it by erecting ad-

ti1neSin ealr st,s sdio oS anlzing work
is sinSthe spring and summer months,
when men are most employed. This
season promises to be one of Industrial
activity, and if ever organizations ca r.
be formed easily it IS now. We hope
that every union in the state will come
to the front and help on the good work.
1t is duty that every union owes to
those uperganized to do all they can in
helping to completely organize the
wage earners of the state. The affilia-
tion fee is just one dollar, accompanied
by the first quarters dues. Remember
that the State Federation claims no .su-
premacy over local unions. The strict
est autonomy is allowed each and
every union. Its power is not to die
tate but to aid in any and every legit-
innate manner, any local union when
in trouble; to seek legislation that any
union desires; to bring about, if possi-
bic, the settlement Of any grievance a
local union may have. The State Fed
erations hold the same relation to the
labor movement of the state as the
Trades assembly holds to city. If
you recognize the value of trades as
sembly to city, you will readily ap-
preciate the State Federatiori's value
to the state Hoping that you will look
upon our request with favor and with
best wishes for your success we are
yours fraternally,

5fnG if ne refused TO declare
himself suilty. The torture OF this In
quisition drove him insane. In his de-
?lirium he escaped from restraint, ran
into a stream of water, was pursued
and shot by the guards. Mind you, this
happened in Idaho last sumtner-not in
Spain in the middle ages and the days
Of the inquisition.
But why go further? An editor had
his paper confiscated, though he had
given only the news and without spe-
cial criticism of the martial authori-
ties. He was told he could resume
publication if he would uphold the con-
dition of anarchy brought about by the
application of martial law, and it
would be made to his financial interest
to do so.
! A man cannot even seek Oportunity
for employment in those mines unless
he has the ''ironclad' permit issued by
military authority.
Martial law is still in operation in
the Occur D. Alene district. If the
authorities want to try a. man and
transfer him to the penitentiary the
civil courts are in operation. If man
are closed.
The statements made above are the
result of the personal attendance of the
writer at hearings of the committee,
and conversations with men who have
been victims Of these outrages. Much
more might be said if there were space.
Col. Dick. Chairman Hull and their
associates seem to be confining their
efforts to showing that the facts to
which the witnesses testify were the
result Of civil rather than military con-
troll
What difference do they suppose that
will make to the people Of the country
when they hear the facts? It is appar-
ent on the face OF matters that Gov
Steunenberg overstepped his authority
1t u also clear that he received the
prompt and cordial support of the
United States military authorities. 1,
doesn't matter SO much just what con-
nivance there was between civil and
military authority. The question is
what was behind this? Why were the
rights Of citizenship ignored? Fo,
what purpose were men confined in the
bull pen? Why is martial law Still il
force in Idaho? Why are men refused
the right to work except under Gen
Merriam's permission?
There is no doubt but the whole af.
fair was u conspiracy on the part OF
certain interests controlling the mines
to SO bulldoze the miners of Idaho tha
they would never dare again to organ
ize union to assert their right to fail
conditions Of labor. There is every in
dication that the Standard Oil inter
ests control these mines-though it i.
not likely to be brought out in this in
VestigatiOn.
The reason why this investigation j.
OF such Importance is that the Idaho
case is simply an example of what ma,
be done elsewhere If the abuses are no
properly resented If man can b,
deprived, of his right in Idaho it car
be done elsewhere.
If trust interests can enlist both civi
and military authorities to do the worl
Of coercion in Idaho they can do i
anywhere that wage workers sresen

Col. Dick Trying to Shift the

Civil Authorities.
WASHINGTON, d. c.

WASHINGTON, -. =.
Lest we forget: The Occur D. Alene
mining investigation is in progress be-
fore the House Committee on Military
Affairs. Out of the mass of testimony
presented showing a condition of at
fairs that would be disgrace to Slbe-
ria, let alone an alleged free country,
a few points may be mentioned to give
of the United States.
First-There is ample testimony from
men of good reputation and In no way
in sympathy with the miners, that Gov.
Steunenberg declared martial law and
asserted that there was an insurrect1on
when there had been no resistance to
civil authority. Every indignity put
upon the prisoners of the bull pen is
heightened by the fact that they were
being tortured by the military author
tiles who themselves were creating a
state of lawlessness and anarchy.
Second-United States colored troops
under Gen. Merriam and his subordin-
ates made wholesale arrests Of men in
no ways connected with the mining
trouble.
Third-That innocent citizens, ar
rested without warrant, charged with
no crime, denied counsel and trial
We're confined in the bull pen for
months. When one listens to the tes-
timony of these men as to the treat
ment they received the wonder is that
they can control themselves sufficient
ly to speak calmly of such matters.
The indignities Of the bull pen are
simply unprintable. Only faint sug-
gestion can be made of the treatment
given these men. They were impris-
oned for months, fed on putrid food
forced to perform loathsome tasks al
the point Of the bayonet, obliged tc
sleep on bare planks and at the same
time endure the mental torture OF
knowing that their wives and babies
were probably suffering for food on the
outside.
All this would be barbaric if applied
to men who were guilty of some crime
