Telegrar11s to Wilson

Secretary Edward L. Doyle of District
Is, United Mine Workers of America,
sent the following telegram to President
Wilson and Colorado representatives in
Congress:
striking miners and families shot and
burned to death at Ludlow, Colo. Mine
guards, with machine guns, riddled tents
of striking miners and set fire to tent
colony. Four men, probably 80 women
and children murdered. State not only
fails to protect, but allows uniforms
and ammunition of the commonwealth
to destroy the lives of the workers and
their families. We shall be compelled to
call on volunteers in the name of human
ity to defend these helpless people un-
less something is done. TeIt colony
burned to ground"
The Rocky Mountain News wired
President Wilson Tuesday night aE fol-
lows:
'1n the name of humanity the Rocky
Mountain News appeals to you to use
your great power as President of this
nation to stop the wanton murder of
innocent women and children with ma
chine guns by mine guards in the state
of Colorado.
"In the name of Christian civilization
the people of this commonwealth appeal
to you to act as promptly and as patri-
otically as you have met the issue in
Mexico. Here in Colorado in place of
salutes to the colors We are firing into
crowds of women and children. Under
the Stars and Stripes and in the uni
forms of American soldiers we are muir
dering people whose principal offense is
that they are fighting for a living.
ave have had enough of investigations
and inquiries. We believe the time has
come to stop this slaughter and we ap-
peal to you to do So"
Mrs. r. II. Walker, one of the lead
ing women of Trinidad:
For Gods sake don't let the Mexican
trouble overshadow the Importance of
immediate attention to our troubles here
in Colorado Miners and their wives and
children have been murdered tonight by
mine guards. Others are Threatened.
Please help them"
John McLennan, president Colorado
State Federation of Labor, sent the fol-
lowing from Trinidad:
"Gunmen employed by mine owners
caught helpless, unarmed strikers OF
Ludlow in a trap and shot them down.
Men, women and children were killed.
Respect was not shown to sex or age.
Tents were burned over heads of the
strikers. Gunmen in state uniform raked
the ranks of the burning colony, CON
taing women and children, with eight
machine guns"

HOW TO HEAL
SKIN TROUBLES

A Baltimore doctor suggests this
simple, but reliable and inexpensive,
home treatment for people suffering
with eczema, ringworm, rashes and SINH
lar itching skin troubles.
At any reliable druggists get a jar of
resinol ointment and a cake of resinol
soap. These will not cost a bit more
than seventy-ive cents. With the resi-
mol soap and warm water bathe the af-
fected parts thoroughly, until they are
free from crusts and the skin is soft
ened. Dry very gently, spread on thin
layer of the resinol ointment, and cover
with a light bandage-if necessary to
protect the clothing. This should be
done twice a day. Usually the distress
ing itching and burning stops with the
first treatment, and the skin soon be-
comes clear and healthy again. For
free samples of resinol ointment and
resinol soap, write Dept. S4-R, ResinOl,
Baltimore, Md.
