BRAVE Old MOTHER JONES.

By John Ward Stimson.
Fic, Nammul,-base and crucl-tlc
Iou worship stocks and stones,
Your laws ;,e iuil Of trcacherlcs.
Your count, with dead mems bones.
You kill thu .iust-you rob their crust
Your pits rc'er atones.
Your greed. Your last, your lies dis
gust,
Dear, brave Old Mother Jones!
With wan gray head-o'cr 80 years;
With sol. and sa1dcned eye,
She never faltcrs, never fears.
And clarcs 10 do or die.
Wherever bloodhound dcspots hunt,
And shaving childhood means,
Their" at the front TO bear the hrunt,
Fights brave old Mother Jones!
Thru sweat ling sweatshops' reehinP
breath;
Thru sitting den or mill,
Thru prisons, insults, wounds ol
death,
Sh2 struggles onward still.
Thru furnace, forge Or tireless sh9ck,
Where burger gnaws its bones,
Leading Tic strife for juster life,
Fights dear old Mother Jones.
On vintly hlilsides. thru the s1c'T.
Where ho,aele3s children freeze,
Her pulses prest, thru life's distress,
On tired nd trembling knees.
Her hands gro iull Of mcrcys aid;
Her lips with pity groans!
@ false. debraded Church ard State,
Go learn from Mother Jones.
Shame on yluy CORY Gettysburg,
Tic. Tea YOUR banners down!
Beside you guilt or babes blood split,
How nasr is such rcnown,
What good is WI or rraegart 5
wealth.
That murdcrouS :Avrice OWLS.
Your trumpct's prize can never hide,
Your shame from Mother Jones!
Tin,A'S blessings on her tender heart
Ard on hcr pale gray brow,
Toll won't forget those tears 80 we:

For Freedom mlrshals cNce again,

Cleveland, O., April ;5.-The Ohio
coal operators today refused to accep,
the proposal for a wage scale made
by the miners ard all negotiations for
tie week were ended. The conferen-
ces will be resumed again next week
however, it i; expected, although the
employers declare they will not ar
range for 6 conference until the re-
suit Of the miners referendum on the
policy adopted at Chicago, is annoanc-
cd. Nothing definite was decided and
the situation is now the same as at
the beginning of the conference last
week.

In 4 referendum taken last Sunday
the Michigan copper strikers decided
10 end their strike. the companies
having inaugurated practically all
demands made by the men except re-
cognition of the Western Federation
Of Miners. It is doubtful whether the
Calumet & Hecla combine, as long rs
the present OFFICIALS are At It's head.
will ever agree TO do business with
organized labor. The principal own
crs Of the stocks and bonds Of the com
pany have accumulated vast fortunes
Off the labor Of the miners and they
have no hesitancy in sacrificing dlvl-
dends and spending millions from the
stolen pile if by doing so they can
protect their privileges and continue
their graft by keeping the miners IN
subsection. The copper barons be-
long to that almost invulncrable up
per strata Of plurocracr that can be
damaged very little through industrial
action, and who have slight fear OF
political probing on the part Of con-
grcss which stands in awe Of the sac
, rcd rights Of property. Like the mag
mates Of the Steal Trust, Standard Oh
the Meat Trust, Tobacco Trust. the
Wooden Trust, Lumber Trust, and 9TH
CT combines capitalized into billions
CT dollars, the Michigan copper be-
rons have become so powerful that II
is farcial il rot criminal to attempt
to defeat them upon their chosen
grounds by Eurling an army Of empty
stomachs against their fat mon
cy bags. o. TO play their political
game by expecting concessions Of any
consequence from the political parties
that protect the principle Of private
ownership OF trusts and monopolics,
with a bit Of regulation" on the side
"a furnish fat jobs for favorite vote
manipulators and to humbug the peo-
pie. The masses OF American people,
those organized and most Of those I'M
organized, sympathized with the cop
per strikers and extended whatever
aid they could in the unequal strug-
gle upon the industrial field. Why
cannot the same National solidarity
be displayed in a working class politi-
eel party, seperate and independent OF
parties and politicians who defend
private ownership Of the means Of
life on the part Of trusts and monopo-
lies? Whether or not the W. +. Of NJ.
can maintain its organization in the
! copper fields is probemical and only
the future can reveal 1t is quite Ger
tain that after Congress receives the
report Of the committee that invcsu-
gated the strike, and files it in 4 pig
con hole to accumulate dust, this IN
cidrnt in the class was will be forgot
ten, along with the charges that the
copper barons stole the lands upon
which they arc located and from which
they have taken hundreds Of millions.
