Mother JONES' STILL
CONFINED IN JAIL
Aged Advocate of Rights of La
bor Subject to Brutal Military
Treatment.

Mother Jones is still incarcerated
in West Virginia, near Charleston.
and heavily guarded by soldiers, al
though she has passed 80 years and
would hardly be able to escape even
II she attempted it, which is highly
improbable.
No newspaper reporters are per-
'mitted to see her and there is an
opinion growing that at least one big
press association has adopted a policy
OF suppressing al information re-
,garding strike conditions in West
Virginia.
- Mother Jones declares, in letters
to union officials, that she does not
dntend to retire from the West Vir-
ginia strike no matter what brutal
methods are enjoyed by the mine
owners to force her to quit.
It is an infamous condition that
prevails in West Virginia, where a
white haired old woman languishes IN
prison with charges of murder, trea-
son and other crimes hanging over
her head, and for no other reason
than that she dared to fight the minc
owners of that state for the right OF
#he workers to organize and to be
Treated like human beings.

WINNIPEG, Man., April ,24.-The

Duluth Cigarmaker's Union Tells
People What's Wrong With
City-They Are Not Loyal.
LOCAL CIGAR INDUSTRY
COULD USE 400 WORKMEN
Outside Capital Cant Be Expected
to Take Chance Unless
People Are Loyal. E-..-,s.-7- r. ;.

.es- Duluth ciEmarkeEa-a ares really .Aailaa
something for Duluth. They are ou,
with circular informing the people
Of this city what might happen in 4
business way if they were more loyal
to home industry.
Several years ago there were 150
cigarmakers employed in Duluth. Al
the present time there are but 40
and Of this number many are contin-
ually out Of employment. Some time
ago the union made an estimate of the
number Of cigars consumed yearly In
Duluth. and it was found that ii
every user of cigars in Duluth smoked
cigars made in the city, it would give
employment to at least 400 cigar
makers.
AS the wages of cigarmakers gen
orally average $40 per week, the en-
ployment of 400 cigarmakers would
give a weekly payroll of $4,000 OF
$416.0OO in year. Instead of these
figures, which are very conservative
the present payroll Of Duluth cigar
makers amounts to about $500 per
week, or $41,600 in a year. I.
From this estimate it may be seen
that an enormous amount of money in
wages to cigarmakers alone is beine
sent away each year, instead Of So
ing into the channels Of trade in
our own city, which would mean
more prosperous merchants and q
more prosperous city.
This same fact applies to every in
dustry in Duluth. The business or
ganizations seem to be very much
concerned about locating new indus.
tries here, but how can capitalists be
expected to invest their money in Du.
luth, when they know that the peo.
pie of this city are not. loyal TO tne
industries already located here.
With relation to the cigar making
industry, it can be said that Duluth.
made cigars are among the best pro.
duced anywhere. The Duluth manu-
facturer buys his raw material jr
precisely the same market as does thu
manufacturers Of New York, Tampa
or elsewhere.
It does not injure the quality o.
cigars to have them manufactured IL
a different climate. Loyalty to tn,

all other industries in this city. woult
