It is not with high hope. however,

Mine Workers Endorse
Elm Grove Strike

The miners at Elm Grove Coal COM

men this week, and swore that they
would never knuckle down to J. B.
Chambers, who has been bleeding them
out of every penny that he ever gave
them, and then posing as a true
Christian gentleman. The lowest for
eigner who worked in the mine at that
place is a king in principle when it
comes down to stalking his reputation
alongside of his. They have been
cheated, robbed through insurance
store, and every other device known,
and when he finally wanted them
body and soul they rebelled.
The United Mine Workers Of Ameri-
ca came to their rescue this week, and
will finance the strike They will
stick to the boys until they win, if that

To Speak Here

Clarence barrow, the world famous
labor lawyer, will speak at the Fair
Grounds in this city, Saturday June
q. He has been secured by Crescent
Lodge No. 8, Amalgamated Association
of Iron, Steel and Tin Workers, the
employees of the Creek mill, and the
occasion is the annual picnic of that
organization.
For many years Crescent lodge has
been giving most enjoyable picnics,
and have always had some most inter
esting feature, but this is the greatest
yet. A speech from Clarence barrow
has long been sought by Wheeling's
labor forces, and Crescent lodge and
one of it's foremost members, have al
ways been deeply interested in trying
to secure him. but always something
prevented his coming. The present
announcement will undoubtedly result
in filling the grand stand to- it's capac-
lty on that day.
The committee in charge of the pic
mic comprises Mike Mahoney, chair
man; G. f.. Ahlquist, secretary, and
p. J. Gilligan, treasurer.

Huntington Socialists, made by the
Dictator, covered two typewriter
pages and alleges that they are guilty
of every crime in the calendar, from
petit larceny to premeditated murder.
The outrage on the Star followed the
firing into a protest meeting in Hun
tington by mine guards. whom, it is
alleged, were sent there from Charles
ton for the purpose by persons high in
the councils of the present tyrannical
military dictatorship of West Vir-
GINA. The Star had prepared an ar
ticle dealing with the shooting in
which it gave the names of the agents
who did the actual work as well as
the names and titles of those who sent
them. 1t is very probable that know
ledge of the coming exposure reached
certain quarters and was largely re-
sponsfble for the wrecking of the
Star plant the day before its publica-
ton and the arrest of its owners

appreciation your editorial on ''The
General strike in West Virginia" It
was an able presentation, as you
struck the key note. The governors

this how the miners we're threatened,

Some time ago Gable Jackson, color
ed, cook at the Wheeling workhouse,
where the city prisoners are confined,
died and Gus Roth, a white man, was
appointed to fill his place. The white
man is said to have been one of the
best cooks in the city and filled the
position at the workhouse to the salts
faction of all; the prisoners are of the
opinion that his cooking was D. K.
Everything, went along all right but
the colored population of the Second
ward were not at all satisfied with the
white man being at the place, and they
demanded that a colored man be
given his place at the Workhouse.
AS it is getting close to election
time, and as the Republican party
needs every colored mans vote that
they can get hold of, and as the color
ed population claimed that they would
support the Democratic ticket if their
request was not complied with, the
Board of Control Immediately got busy
and fired the white man, Gus Roth, and
replaced him with Andy jackson, a
colored man. Now the colored popu-
lation of the Second ward is satisfied,
and the ward heelers will boost for the
Republican party
After election the colored population,
with the exception of the few who have
stand-in with the city hall gang, can
go to Dixie" for all that that bunch
and the Double or cares. The
working class will wake up some day,
possibly and instead of calling petty
judge Your honor" when he has no
honor, and instead of getting down on
their knees and asking for favors of
the servants whom they elect, they
will learn to have sense enough to
vote for themselves.
