MINE OWNERS GUILTY
OF MANY CRIMES
The Western Federation
Miners Delegates Defend the Western
Association-Facts Cited

| To the Editor The News. Indianap-
oils: Sir-We were somewhat surprised
to read your violent attack upon the
Western Federation of Miners. which
appeared in your editorial columns OF
March 18th, and, believing, as We do,
that you are not fully acquainted with
the facts in the matter. we would, there
fore, kindly ask your indulgence TO pre-
sent our views on this question, which
have been CLEANED from practical ex'
perieuee and from personal aequaint-
anee with the leaders and policy Of the
Western Federation Of Miners.
You state that wherever the Western
Federation Of Miners has been repre-
sented there have been riots. kidnap-
pings. assaults. dynamiting and mur-
dezs This is a very broad and injurious
statement, and nothing could be fur
ther from the truth Of the policy Of
the Western Federation Of Miners.
Their mission is one of education and
their methods Of procedure have always
been along peaceful lines, and we ehal'
lenge any person TO produce evidence
that this organization has even eoun-
tenaneed violence or lawlesSness. On
the contrary, they have officially eoa-
demned every lawleSs act perpeirated
in the labor troubles Of the west. and
have even gone so far as 70 offer Ee-
wards for the apprehension Of the srim-
insls. and in this respect this orgauiza-
tiou has a clear record, as none OF their
members have ever been convicted II
crime. although numerous attempts have
been made BY the Mine Owners asso-
citation 10 convict members Of the
Western Federation for alleged crimes.
Each and every member indicted,
when brought to trial. has been aequii-
ed. and this in the Colorado conrts,
dominated, as they are, by the eorpor-
ate interests which have plundered ,he
people. stolen the gOvernOrship and de-
bAuehed the legislature Of that fair
state. Notwithstanding the insults ard
the abuse which has been heaPed upon
the members OF the Western Federa-
tioa Of Miners by the military deputies
and thugs employed by the Nine oWa-
ers' association, the fact remains that.
for every violation Of law Of which
thew have heen accused and in6ietei,
scores Of instances ear be cited where
in those in the direct employ Of the
Nine Owners association have been The
guilty parties. II proof whereof We
refer you TO the following crimes con
sanmAted by this diAbOlisal capitalist
Organization, WhO EOW seeks 70 pose a
defenders Of law and order and vkC
cry for the blood Of innocent men. viz;
The incarceration OF Charles Moves
Daily capital journal. (Salem, Oregon) 1903-1919, 1906-05-16

in the military bull pen at Telluride.
Colo, for a period of 1O5 days. his only
offense being that he was president Of
the Western Federation of Miners and
zealously guarded the interests COM
mittei to his care.
The assault of A. H. F7oten for no
other crime than managing a co-opera-
tive store pstronized BY union miners.
The claiming Of Harry Maxi to tel
egaph pole at Telluride by deputies and
militiamen for six hours in the face Of
a binding snowstorm for no other cause
than that Of refusing to obey their COM
mand to work in a eesspool.
The eowardly assaults on Organizers
Chris Evans William Farley, James
Mooney and William Wardjon, Of the
Mine Workers of America.
The attack upon the larter organiza-
,ion is ample proof that there is no dls-
tinetion drawn between the Western
Federation of Miners and the United
Milne Workers of America.
Another outrage perpetrated by th5
plant tools of the coal companies was
the dynamiting of the homes Of the
striking coal miners at Newcastle, Colo.
This damnable conspiracy was executed
az dead Of night, when the miners and
their families were in bed, and very lit
tie effort was made TO bring the guilty
parties TO justice. Numerous other cases
Of similar character can be produced
Unnecessary, but for lack of space they
can not be mentioned in this article.
However. il is evident that the only
criminal organization a the west Is the
Mine Owners association. But, screened
as they are by the protecting arm of q
debauehed Judiciary. it is impossible to
convict them Of these dastardly out
RACES or secure impartial treatment
from a subsidized press.
Again, in the latter part Of your AZ
tiele you state that We do the cause Of
labor a very great harm by sympathiz-
ing in the slightest degree with the
Western Federation of Miners, it being.
as you say, a criminal organization. We
desire 10 register an emphatic protest
against such an unqualified statement,
for We claim il 20 be incumbent upon
all lovers Of liberty and justice TO ex-
tend 10 Meyer. Haywood and their col
leagues sH po. sible aid and assistance
in order that they may not be the vie
tins Of another foul conspiracy on the
part Of the Mine Owners association
and Citizens Alliance, whose attitude
in the past has proved that they have
10 regard for human rights or liberties.
Trusting you viii publish this state
msnt Of facts, we remain, respectfully,
yours. FVank J. Hayes, James Mooney,

The ladies of the Presbyterian

successfully on Tuesday. Knowing
that r. B. Fuller and family were soon
to move away the ladies wished to
give Mrs. Fuller farewell visit and so

She gave III very grace$ully and let
them have their way. A delicious sup
per was soon ready and everybody had
a good time. The presentation of set
of fruit knives was made by Mrs. j. f..
Beavis to Mrs. Fuller as a small remem-

MONDAYS ELECTION.

Every voter in the city should turn
out next Monday and vote OH the
proposition for bonding for cement
walks and cross walks. The sidewalk
question is the most vital one we have
to deal with at present, and the alder
men would like to see full vote that
they may better know the sentiments
of our citizens and be able to act in ac-
cordance with the wishes of the major
ity.
That some of our readers may not
fully understand the subject we will
try to make it palmer.
AS heretofore. the city will make all
grades and the bed for the walk, and
in addition will pay one third of the
cost of the walk proper adjoining pri-
vate property Cross walks and the
approaches thereto, the city builds it,
self. For this purpose $1,000 in bOnos
are to be issued to be- paid by general
assessment running for whatever time
they can best be floated at.
The $1,000 issue is to build the two
thirds remaining and to he specially
assessed against the adjoining proper
ty. This is paid by the property own
er. Instead of having to pay the same
WlNlill ~ ud.S 90 hVltlplOlO; Ht may
pay in five equal installments covering
as many years, or, if he wishes to save
the small interest charge, he may pay
the whole amount at once.
by putting i'm all our walks at once
the city expects to be able to get better
prices and Immediately lessen the
chances for damage suits from present
defective walks.
The proposition is fair and with the
hopes of getting our walks all in at
once we expect to eyes OH a large ma
jorlty of the votes cast.
