A PRO' ES I

the Park meeting Saturday night
 Springdale, Ark, June 20, 1914.- To Hon. Woodrow Wilson, President, and to the Members of Congress:
 We, the Socialist Party of Washing ton County, and the citizens of Springdale, Arkansas, for the first time direct your attention.
 To the most horrible civil war news that flashed across the country from the great American state of Colorado, when on the 21st day of April, the Mine Strikers Tent Colony of Lud- low, men, women and children were murdered by the State Militia, hired thugs and mine guards, where the strikers tent colony was set fire, Wo- men and children who tried to es- cape the horrible death were driven back in the flames to perish by the gun men.
 And whereas, Lieutenant Linderfelt, Of Colorado, national guard declared at the court martial in Denver, that he was willing to accep full re- sponsibility for all that happened at Ludlow He was defending the flag. Are we living in a christian nation, and a civilized country, when such crimes are committed in the name of the flag, and the criminals given their liberty.
 Whereas, In this age of human progress, and niger civilization, We consider il a crime against human ity, for such murder as Lieutenant Linderfelt, 10 be tried by criminals of his own class.
 And Whereas. The State of Colo rado has d=cided to award the hired assassins of the operators for their splendid work as militiamen in mur- dering and cremating nineteen men, women and children, at Ludlow on April 221 when the State Auditing board met, showed it's members were traitors to the State when they ap- proved the imported murders bill for service. Two hundred miners have been arrested because they were guilty Of the offence of protecting their homes, against the murderous attack oI the gun men.
 Resolved, by Che Socialists Of Wash ington County. and the citizens of SprIngdale, Arkans $,
 That we demand the immediat Withdrawal of the American troops from Mexico, that the Gmtcd States keep is hands off, and p=rm.t the Mexican people to settle their i'll. ternaI differences among tn mselEes.
 Resolved, That we call upon tn United Stat Gov rnmentto not on- ly end this latest Mexican war craze by the withdrawal Of troops from tHe Mexican territory. but to conc nitrate it's good will and efforts in br nging about. the cessation of the murderous work carried on by the gun men, and hired thugs, of John D. Rockefeller and others who are interested in the mining interests in the state of Colo rado And be 1t further
 Resolved, That this Government take over the mines in the states of Colorado, West Virginia, and Michi- gan and operate them the same as the Government has the coal mines ot Walston, North Dakota, that has been operated by the Government for the past six years, and put stop 10 this murderous work that is now going on.
 Resolved, That We extend our sym pathy to the striking miners of Colo rado, especially to the families of the victims, who lost their lives
 Resolved. That copies Of this state ment and resolutions be sent to Pres ident Wilson. Vice President Mar shall, to the Speaker of the House
