President shancr Followed
Mr.. Brennan. He said In part:
What is the remedy for these trou-
bles2 Ii is in combination. Let the
workingmen cambine. Let them use
their ballots in their own behalf. Let
them vote as they marched to-day. |
don't care if you call this socialism,
or what you call 1t, just so when cleo
ton day comes around you will remem-
Der to-day and march up and cast your
vote for wcrkingmen, no matter on
what ticket they are running.
For years we have been treating
with the employers on these questions.

conservative. but when the combina-
ton OF trusts came, we saw that we
must be vigilant. | cannot go into the
details of the deliberations, but suffice
it to say that the trust decided TO eX-
tlnguish our organization when in last
March 1t told the workers in the De-
wees Wood plant. at McKeesport, that
they would be discharged If they or
ganized.
we asked the trust to sign the scale
for all its mills. Its answer We, We
will not sign, for II we let you organ
lie all the mills the A~malgamated As
ISOLATION will be too strong: We must
have enough non-union mills to hold
the balance of power
What is a %non-union mil? 1t Is a
menace to wages. II helps to lower the
wages of the workers and to enrich the
rich men.
1T has been said that the strike is
already lost and that d wise general
is always ready t o retreat If by so do
ing he can save his army from ami
rilation. All | have II say to this Is
that Skaters motto is A speedy death
is preferable to starvation
IF we yield to the trust now. they
will steal more mills and soon we shall
be in their power. | would rather go
down with the A~malgamated Associa-
tion in destruction than be its presi-
lent with its members starving.
But the Amalgamated is not 60
ing to be licked. The trust and the
newspapers will have their inning, but
there will be a few of us left at the tip-
ish. If it comes to a last resort, there
are the coal miners. If in the course
of time their leaders shall think 1t best
to quit work to help us, then we shall
be thankful for their support
Mr.. Skaters closing words were:
IF the mighty tyrant sitting on his
golden throne in Wall street should
descend to the humber walks of life
and grip the Amalgamated Association
by the throat and try to strangle 1t to
death, other labor organizations Will
rise up and push the monster back and
say. you are mighty, but hold, for he
is our brother"

"If we had known what we do now, the
last offer of the United States Steel
Corporation at the Hotel Lincoln con-
ference, in July, would probably have
been accepted" said Ben |. Davis, OF
the advisory board of the Amalgamated
Association. However, that is past
and gone, and we are now in a fight
with the corporation.
Some of the people have placed all
the alleged mistakes on President Shat

one had as much voice as President
Shaffer. The people who are now criti-
| cising his conduct of the strike are
| doing so from personal pique.
Some of the people inside and out
| of the organization are urging thai the
| strikers be ordered to work, a practl-
| cal surrender. This will never be. we
will enforce recognition. The fight has
! been on since July, and not 20 OF our
members have deserted. Most OF these
are men in the Painter mill OF the
American Steel Hoop Company, new
members. and six or seven co.ored men
at the Clark mills.
Our men, especially the old mem
bers. those in the sheet mills and tin
mills. will stand up till they starve. IL
is a tremendous task that the combine
has undertaken to start these mills

A telegram from McKeesport to-
night says the delay in starting the
Demmler mill is due to Mayor Blacks
hesitancy in guaranteeing police pro-
