VIEWED WITH ALARM
Is the Possible Return of Vincent st
John, the Labor Leader, TO Tcllu-
ride-Will be Paid Large
Salary.

Regarding the probable return of
Vincent st. John. the noted labor
leader who was so prominent in the
labor riots in San Miguel county some
years ago, spoken of by the Sentinel
yesterday, n dispatch from Telluride
says in part:
The prospect of st. John returning
to Colorado, especially to the Telu-
ride district, is viewed with much
alarm by the mine owners, and the
intimation has already gone forth
that If the former strike leader values
his life he will remain in Idaho.
where he went a few years ago, when
warrants are sworn out charging him
with murder and other crimes. The
failure of the state to find anything
tangible on which to prosecute St.
John, and later the dismissal of the
various charges, has, it is said. EN-
boldened him to the point where he
desires to return for "vindiCation."
The offer of the mine managership
to st. John is made by Mrs. Conrad
Meenan, wife of a wealthy Norwood
cattle man. Mrs. Meenan owned the
Valiant Host of Labor group of ten
claims at Ophir and has just sold a
half interest in the property to a Chi
cago syndicate for SOS. 900. Mrs. Nee
nan is to have general charge of the
development of the property, and the
Chicagoans have already put up
enough money to do 1000 feet of
work on the group. The group is to
be equipped with a big plant of ma
chinery and air drills are to be used.
None but high grade union miners
are to be employed on the mine, and
these are to be paid so cents a day
more than the prevailing union scale
in the state.
The Valiant Host of Labor mines
adjoins the Butterfly-Telluride mines
at Ophir Loop, one of the best pro-
ducers in that section of the state.
The Butterfly-Telluride ore shoots are
said to extend into the Valiant Host
of Labor group.
Mrs. Meenan. who has made the
offer to St. John. is a strong union
labor sympathizer. She gained wide
spread publicity during the miners
strike troubles in this district several
years ago by being deported by the
military at the behest of the mine
owners. At that time her name was
Mrs. Agnes Mahoney.
Being barred from Telluride. Mrs.
Mahoney took up her residence at
Montrose, where she met Mr.. Nee
nan, who heard of her treatment and
asked for an Introduction. The veal
thy stock grower promptly fell in love
with the pretty and determined widow
and soon proposed to her. After the
ceremony Meenan announced that he
would take his bride to his ranclr
near Norwood, and that they would
drive into Telluride as often as they
pleased. He dared the mine owners
and military to deport his wife, but
they wisely concluded to let well
enough alone"
At the time Mrs. Mahoney was de
ported she was returning to Telluride
on a Denver & Rio Grande train, and
when the train stopped at Placerville
squad of militiamen boarded her
car and ordered her to return north
ward. Because of this threatment
she later sued the railroad company
for $4,000 damages.
