"Scabbing" at the Elections.

There are approximately two
million voters in the United States;
who are members Of organized
labor. They strike together, when
necessary; hunt Jobs together,
when out of work, are locked out
together when they begin to show
a little spirit of Independence:
but they never vote together. If
they would stop "Scabbing" on

enemy of labor is responsible for
a report being sent out from

charged upon superintendent
Gillle and fired over one hundred

FACTS IN
THE CASE.
Situation as Viewed by National
Representatives, Of the Mine Work
ers Before Strike.

During the past few weeks
much censure has been heaped up
on the District officers by men
who do understand the situation
and the entire blame for every
thing 10 shouldcred up President
Davis. a careful perusal of the
following letter sent to National
Resident Lewis before the strike
was ordered, signed by every
National representative in the
District, seven in number. Will
serve to show that the RESPONSE
blilty dogs not rest entirely with
the District officers and that
IN the future they should be
fully informed before criticisino
their officers:
We write to inform you that the
situation in this field is certainly
very acute. \ strike at all the
mines not working under the Paint
Creek settlement, has been called.
and the men have all responded
and seem to be in earnest. II is n
peculiar situation when the men
arc 50 willing and anxious to
strike, when victory for them
means com peliiny them to do some
thing that three lourths Of them
have refused to do under the
Charleston 1908 grermcnt; and
yet VIC firmly believe that the
operators are trying to- cocrcc the
miners INTO accepting Il reduction
regardless OF It's effect on the or.
ganlz:ltlon, has opened the ewes of
the miners to Interior motives be
hlnd the whole controversy, and
AT present tune VIC honestly be.
llcvc that the operators are weak
cnlng IN their positions, and with
little show Of fr,nncss on .hr
part OF The miners, their conten.
ton VIII cease and nothing more
Will be heard from them about the
Paint Creek settlement.
The miners of many camps viii
absolutely refuse to accept the lone
ton, and any other terms than the
FAINT Creek settlement, and the
position OF the Operators Associ-
alton has forced "a strike, or a
reputation 0! the Paint Creek
agreement, which also would re-
suit IN Il strike. and if lost. as
Cabin Creek was, the Association
would yet hold the T. NJ. W. of
a. responsible, and Il strike woul,l
result III the oCtComc anyhow, and
as Il strike seems inevitable. we are
OF the opinion that now IS as op.
perfume Il time as will ever occ,,r
to prevent them from forcing the
organization out Of business in this
field.
If the fight is not made now
Ihcrc Will he no use to try to make
u struggle for some time to come,
as their hearts will not be in it,
and a reorganization of the field
Will have to be affected. There is
too much factionaliSm here now
and unless the present contest
IS permitted to be fought
to Il finish, there is little
use to try to build up the olgani-
zatlon here until all factions arc
united and perfect harmony pre-
walls among all branches Of the or
ganlzaticn.
We arc not in a position to give
advice, but we volunteer orr
Opinions and is value can be
weighed and taken for what it is
worth.
The District is without finance
ana yet there is fighting spirit
which is better asset in a contest
than financial backing. when the
men arc not so much in earnest.
