THAN REALLY is
oskaloosa Attorney Tells Of coadl-
tions in West Virginia Where Coal
Barons Are Cars.
Especial to The Gate City.1

O~~S~
WASHINGTON, D. c., June 26.-
Lawyers everywhere will be inclined
to disbelieve the press reports OF oc-
currences which have been taxing
place in West Virginia as result OF
the troubles between the coal miners
and the operators of the mines, but the
81 .uation could hardly be painted IN
worse colors than it really is, was
statement made today by James a.
Dewitt of Oskaloosa, Ia. general coun-
sci for the United Mine Workers asso
citation of America, who is in Washing
ton.
"For instance" said Mr.. Dewitt, ut
was openly claimed under oath by
state officers of West Virginia that the
governor Of the state might declare
martial law whenever he should think
such declaration necessary; that
when martial law was declared, that
declaration suspended the constitution
| of the state ot West Virginia; that a
military commission had the au hort.
| to try any citizen of the state without
jury and without right of appeal and
/ to inflict any punishment it might see
/ fit: that this military commission had
! he authority and, in fact, exercised It,
4 to send men to the penitentiary for
offenses which, under the civil law
were punishable by fine not to ex
coed 800; that this &C. of the COVER
nor in declaring martial law and the
exercise of this authority by the com
mission could not be reviewed by any
court or tribunal of the state or ma
ton. and that all of this could be done
in a county at time when the civi
courts of county were open and ir
opera ion and not being disturbed II
any manner.
Mr.. Dewitt was accompanied t.
\ Washington from West Virginia by
John P. White formerly Of Oskaloosa
who is president of the United Mine
Workers of America, and his seven
teen associates in The organization
who are under indictment by the fed
eral grand jury at Charleston for 6
violation of the Sherman antitrust ac
in seeking to organize the miners FOL
the purpose of getting their wages
raised.
The entire delegation, headed by Mr.
Dewitt, called at the department O
Justice, where Mr. Dewitt made &
statement of the situation in West
Virginia to Attorney General Mercy
/ nolds who evinced great interest Lol
