False Statement About

McCabe, March 30. -(Editor Jour- nal Miner. )-"The St. Patrick ball at McCabe wound up ina general row. Several of the men were taken to the hospital, and several others damaged but did not get to medical head quarters. A dispute arose on the out side and there was something doing"
 The above article appeared in the Prescott Herald under the date of March 24.
 The only answer that can be made to the above slanderous falsehoOd is the statement that at the ball given at McCabe on the evening of the l7th of March under the auspices of the Miners Union, there were ladies pres ent.
 The person that cannot be convinced by those few words, has an under standing so dense, that a single ray of intelligence has never penetrated therein, and has sensibilities so coarse that car load of sand paper would not polish it sufficiently to enable a person to see over the lowest joint.
 The man who could report such a circumstance to have taken place, or allow it to be printed in his paper, must have forgotten that a mothers love was the guardian spirit of his cradle, and the guardian star of his boyhood.
 That the gentle hand of woman
 moulded his heart and mind to hell
 him conquer in life's battle, and that
 he must choose or has chosen ;
 woman to be the mother of the sOI
 before whom he poses as the proud
 example.
 The brawl reported took place
 at six o'clock in the mOruing, lons
 after the scene of festivities haC
 been deserted, and it occurred not a
 the ball room, but at the dispensar.
 of the poisonous drink that caused
 the trouble. Any report to the con ! ;-arv is malicious islander upon tn flair name of the McCabe Miners
 Union and the above article printed
 in the Herald is proof conclusive tha
 it entertains a spirit of animosity to
 ward us and is ready to print an.
 thing derogatory to this organization
 Every truth respecting persol must admit that the miners hay
 proved themselves the law abiding element of any community in whicl
 they live. This fact has been strik
 ingly demonstrated at the scene of tn
 Colorado labor strike, when tn miners have suffered the most fiagran injustce and humiliating indignitie
 at the hands of the exploiting class O
 capitalists of which the Herald ha proved itself the willing tool. It ha
 in the guise of the friend and advocat of organized labor solicited the ap
 proval and recognition of the uniOI men in order to wiring dollars fror
 community against whose principle it is secretly antagonistic. Why does the editor of the Prescott Herald persist in attacking the union by purposely printing distorted cir cumstances always making them ar pear detrimental to the union ele ment.
 , Can he not gather sufficient assuI ance to print either falsehOod or tn truth?
 Why does he use the weapons c subterfuge and deceit thereby barrin an honest community from the fray , Because an honest man knows b would besmirch his hands in such a encounter.
 Never yet has his courage mounte
 so high as to enable him to take ad
 vantage of the one redeeming move h could make, namely, of boldly assert
 ing and defending a sincere opinio to which every man has a perfec right.
 But he should be thankful tha , Murphy gold has SO dazzled his eye that he can not see himself as b stands before the working men of Ya vapai county and knowing the i'm pression that such a malicious state ment as the above have with the pee pie who are unacquainted with us W } feel it our duty to demand that tn above article be contradicted and s ) place us in a proper light.
 Whereas, We, the McCabe Miners union, No. I1s, ". F. M., declar
 that the aforesaid article was braze and palpable falsehood, and perpe trated for an ulterior purpose, there fore be it
 Resolved, That we demand that D D. Mcdonald, editor of the Prescott Herald, do apologize to us, throug the columns of the Prescott Herald thereby rectifying the slur cast, an
 be it further
 Beloved, That copy of this lette
 and resolutions be forwarded to eac of the county papers at Prescott, Ari zona, to the Miners Magazine fo publication, and a copy be kept b. , the McCabe union for further refer ence. Respectfully, T. J. Arnold, Arthur H. Swenerton, Committee
