So many things are planned

On the one hand we see peo-

The reason is that some per-

War was declared anew in West

no union man should go into the work

ators. They say that they accepted
the compromise arranged by Governor
Hatfield in good faith and ordered
their men back to work; that the
operators In place of employing all
hands as they promised. blacklisted
and turned back all who had been
prominent In the strike. And, In ad.
dition, State Senator Samuel B. Mont
