Wheeling i Not The Only
Strike Center On The
Map.

Wheeling business men, WneeI-
inc newspapers. and Wheeling Eln-
.nc;al interests generally have been
claiming that the strike Of the NH
MON was over except locally. and
that the Wheeling district mill work
ora were doing themselves and every
hodv in the local mercantile world
an Injustice by remaining on strike.
Look" they said. 1.-The mills are
working in all the other towns at
,ected: the strike is over at every
no,nt but here; we sympatAize with
Won and all that 90 but the Wheel
ing district cannot win the strike
alone. and as everybody but your
selves has gone lack to work. why
don't you go?"
The Majority has in every issue
pointed out the falsity OF the daily
nevsuaper reports that the strike was
M in the other mill centers. The
Majority has shown that the Trust Is
not and has not been operating salts
factorily anywhere. But the people
who have wanted to believe that the
strike existed only in Wheeling. have
simply replied that The Majority did
not tell the truth. They have. pre-
ferred the reports appearing in the
pittsburg Labor World and the Pitts
burg National Labor Tribune, not
knowing that these are not. Labor
papers. but existing merely to make
money, and making that money ~
printing anything desired by the ex-
ploiters Of Labor. They have believed
the World and Tribune a. labor
papers, not knowing that both papers
were long since drowned and dis
credited by all reputable labor or
CARNATIONS and labor leaders.
1t Is with the view of proving Its
news accounts of the strike that the
Majority herewith prints the attached
list Of names of New astle strikers,
named in an Injunction secured by
The Trust. after trying for nearly
The New Castle Injunction.
The injunction against the New
Castle strikers was secured by the
Trust from the servile court last fall
Had TIE strike in New Castle been
lost, there would certainly be NO oc'
casion Row for the Trust to renew
that injunction AND aADD THE
NAMES OF ONE THOUSAND
WORKERS AND THEIR WIVES!
Tst that is what has been done
The Trust. after tryjngfornearly
year to operate the Greer and She
mango mills. is compelled to order it,
: judicial servants to issue Injunction
writs upon one thousand men and
women. This does not tally with tn.
daily newspapers accounts Of all mel
Teturajng to work. II there 10 any
thing ia the pro rata theory 1t Woult
indicate rhat the strike is more both
ersome to the Trust than ID tn
Wheeling district. for here the in
Junction Accommodatingly granted b,
ledge Dayton. that sterling champion
OF the rights ef Labor. was against |
Tar smaller number.
Following is the complete list Q
tns one thousand workers and thei
wives who are considered to te tru
enough TO their principles to justif
aAjunctiea proceedings. The Majorit
hopes that the mill men viii shoy
anis list to the merchant kickers, an
linus prove to them that the Me-
'ofity's reports have been truthful
reports and that the strike agains
the feudal system Of the Stael Trus
- not confined to the wheeling dii
