THE COPPER STRIKE
Commercial Clubs Work Having rs Effect
inEnding the Holdout ~

W nEnuing the holdout
Some few weeks ago we made
mention Of the report isned by
the commercial club OF the copper
country on tn copper miners strike.
IL was stated at the time that the in
vestigation by this club would have
a greater effect upon the strike than
any that had been made ana subse.
quent events prove the correctness of
this statement The gun committee
was composed of men who had the
confidence of the workingmen snd OF
the mining companies.
The club did not end its labors with
the issuing of the report but keep dill !.
gently at work to bring about the end
OF the strike In this they have sue
ceeded exceptionally we'll. Last week
Friday the club. published notice
in the local press Of the copper
country that the mining companies
would take back all of their old men
who applied at once for positions !;
that no discriminate on would reserve
the right to use their own judgment
in the case of men who had been en-
gagged in violence during the progress
of the strike.
The clubs announcement came at
about the same time that an editorial
advising the Finnish strikers TO 90
back to work appeared in the Peival-
ehti. the leading Finnish daily paper.
on the country, published at Calumet.
Since that time there has been a
decided sagging in the strike enthus-
iasm and many of the federation men
deserted their union and applied for
their old positions
In fact. conditions have improved
80 rapidly within the last few DAYS
that the mines are hoisting about the
usual amount of rock raised before
the strike was called.
The number of men imported into
the copper country from other places
is about /, 400 and it is said that
nearly 80 percent OF them are German
or OF German extraction. All speak
English and the business men of the
copper country feel very much en-
couraged because of-their coming.
In connection with this strike, the
Mining Gazette tells some pathetic
tales of widowed women who were
oatV eko - -.
There are a number of very unfor-
tunate cases that are already attract
ing attention. For instance three OF
the women who were leading the
parade OF strikers at Calumet this fall
are widows. They have no direct
interest whatsoever In the outcome.
They have been supported by assist
ance from the county authorities and |
from the organized charities for years
and are today dependent upon charity |
for their livelihood One of these
women formerly made living for
herself and three small children by !
scrubbing floors buildings. Kind |
hearted women discovered that she |
was able to do fancy needlework of a
saleable kind. They worked up a
market for her output and kept her
employed NJ higher remuneration |
than formerly secured and at pleasant
work. This woman left her three chill
dren TO the charitable care Of neigh
bors, slept at federation headquarters
and has been leading the strikers in
their early morning parade ever since
the trouble started. Last week two
of the children were taken to an or
phanage and one is being cared for by
kind hearted people at Calumet.
The woman Is strike crazy.
