Mr.. uBrns quoted Franklin b. Gowen.
on the story OF the Mollie Maguires, and
concludes as follows:
And yet the Mollies, with all their
blackness Of crime. never made war on
women and children. Their lower depth
was only reached by the boycotters OF
1902"
Further on he said
The Miners union had the strongest
of reasons for the terrorization of the
non-union men, for I'm IL depended their
hope OF success and increase OF gain. Any
impartial jury in the commonwealth of
Pennsylvania would convict them without
leaving the box.
I'm reality the contest Is between the
American people on one side and the
is to determine whether the people may
have coal, except upon such terms as the
union may prescribe.
NO BASIS FOR DEMAND.
"We submit that there is nothing in
the evidence showing any basis for a de-
mand for increase of wages at the pres
ent time. The unerring symptom OF un
derpay and overwork In any vocation IL

Hanlon Is looked upon as Il logical
