to the valley and her citizens. The
field for good work is unlimited, and

The mob began shooting right and

Of the widest disorder.
The immense tobacco barn of Lind

A brakeman who made an effort
TO move train from the path of the
flames was shot in the back. Several
other citizens were badly injured.
It seemed for time that the en-

fight TO save their homes and their
places of business. Finally the flames

Hopkinsville is a city of 10000

SAYS HAYWOOD
IS TO BLAME
(By Associated Press.)

Los Angeles, Cal. Dec. IN. j.
geles Nevada Mining Exchange and
one of the big operators of Goldfield,
in an interview lays the whole blame
for the situation in Goldfield on Will
liam D. Haywood, secretary1treas-
urer of the Western Federation of
Miners. Monnette says:
"All the present trouble in Cold
field is due to the activity of Will
liam d. Haywood. 1t is solely to
his influence that the miners refused
to accept the checks of the Goldield
banks in part payment for their wag-
es some time ago, and at meeting
of the miners he advised them to re-
fuse these checks.
"I am satisfied that 10 per cent
of the members of the union are not
in sympathy with him in this move
ment: but they seem to be so thor
oughly under the control of few
leaders that they have been afraid
to take any action. Many of these
men are anxious TO return to work
and in my opinion there will either
be a split in the union in Goldfield or
an open shop rule will prevail in all
of the large mines there.
"The Mine owners Association is
determined that it will not longer
submit to the arbitrary dictation OF
few union agitators.' -
