The above Is taken from the fifth day s
proceedings OF the convention. In less
than two weeks results VIII be noted in

the workers the liberties guaranteed
them by the blood OF their forefathers
Organized labor and liberty-loying ciu-
zens in Denver are busy. Committees
from the two local organizations that
are prosecuting the men responsible for
the imprisonment OF the miners are visit
ing local unions each evening. calling
upon them to refuse to purchase the
goods offered for sale by the Struby'
Estabrook company. the Denver Dry
Goods company and the Northern Coal
and Coke company. and to withdraw all
moneys they or their members may have
in the Colorado National bank.
The chairman and secretary of the
committee have prepared a letter con
tanning the names OF the brands of goods
handled by the Sruby- -Estabrook com
pany. This letter will be passed upon
by the committee this evening and will
be sent to every local of every interna-
,ional union in the territory covered by
Denver trade.
The State Federation of Labor is also
preparing letter TO all affiliated organ
izations asking that immediate action be
taken against the Denver firms.

Sunday, at the Denver Trades and La
bor Assembly. the action of the commit.
tee was concurred in. Delegates from
all parts of the hall reported that their
ORGANIZATIONS money had been with
drawn from the Colorado National bank,
and that fines ranging from 81 to $40
had been placed against any members
who patroniZed any of the unfair firms.
From every walk OF life comes the cry
for action. The demand is being freely
made for the freedom of the imprisoned
miners. Citizens believe that the day is
mast when men may be thrown into
prison without n trial-simply because n
Judge issued an injunction that IT is Inn
possible not to break-and then jail men
"for the good OF the community" and the
men that are promoting the Northern
Coal and Coke company.
The men in the county Jail are enjoy
ing themselves as well as could be ex'
pected. On visiting days the room Is
banked high with flowers and good things
to eat. Judge Lindsey called on the boys
and in honor of his visit large Ameri.
scan flag was unfurled across one side OF
the room that the miners occupy. and
flowers and baskets almost filled the
nlace. II looked more like celebration
Of the Fourth of July than call by n
Judge upon men deprived OF their hoer'
,tos because they exercised their consti-
tutional rights.
