ONE MANS OPINIONS
BY N. D. COCHRAN

ne FdST OF MOther JONES' nave
received an interesting note from H.
H. Kohlsaat, former publisher of the
Record-Herald and Inter-Ocean, con-
corning charges made against Mother
Jones in speech in congress by Rep.
George ]. Kindel of Colorado. Mr..
Kohlsaat's note is as follows:
My Dear Mr.. Cochran: Until
read the enclosed l had always sup
posed Mother Jones" was a real
friend of the men, WOMEN AND
CHILDREN who suffer during
strikes, and respected her for her
humane efforts to alleviate suffering.
This is terrible Indictment to charge
her with being a procuress and
keeper OF a house of ill-fame. Do
you know whether it is true or not?
Yours sincerely,
H. H. KohIsaat.
am glad Mr.. Kohlsaat wrote that
note to me and gave the inspiration
for this opinion. In the first place,
it shows that Mr.. Kohlsaat's heart is
in the right place, because he respect
ed Mother Jones when he thought
her the real friend of men, women
and children during strikes, when her
humane efforts were directed toward
the alienation of human suffering.
Enclosed with the note was copy
of the Congressional Record contain
ing the speech of Congressman Kin
del. In this speech the Colorado con-
gresham quoted extracts from a
Denver publication known as Polly
Pry," in which reference was made
to Mother Jones and others who were
billed to address a union labor mass
meeting at the Coliseum the night
of Jan. 8.
The issue of Polly Pry" of Jan. 2,
1904, referred to the mass meeting to
be held the next day to be addressed
by Meyer, Haywood, Mother Jones
and others. No reference was made
