enthusiasts board that vessel Presumably the pas

NO APPRECIATION HAD
FROM MINERS is CAUSE
OF CLIFTON STRIKE
Master Mechanic Lawson Of the
A. & N. N. Railway Tells in
Tucson That There Is no I'm
mediate Likelihood Of End.


TUCSON. Nov 3O.-Master Mechan-
ic Dawson Of the Arizona & New Mex
leo railway at Clifton is in the city.
Mr. Dawson, who was forced to leave
the strike district like all other Off
cials of the company, has been spend
ing the interim in Iowa and other east
ern states. and has come to Tucson
to visit his brother, who resides on
South Fifth avenue
When asked yesterday for his opin-
ion Of the present strike in the Cliff
ton-Morenci district, Mr.. Dawson said:
For over a year now there has been
evident dissatisfaction among the
miners Of the Arizona Copper com
pany, ever since the company made
an all round 10 percent reduction in
the wages Of their employees. II had
been impossible to impress them that
they were being treated better than
any other miners in the state. They
were getting a square deal but failed
to see it.
The miners entertained the inn
preston that they were the only suf-
ferers during the great lull in the
copper market. and further they be-
lieved that they were the only ones
that were reduced to 10 percent. but
they were wrong. / myself received
the same as the helper in fact, if the
truth need to be known everyone in
the employ of the company was re-
duced, from Mr. Carmichael down.
IAN seemed to be running smooth
tin the federation leaders went to
/ Clifton. and they upset the whole bus
mess, they Influenced the miners TO
/ believe that they were not receiving
I fair tratment, and that If they would
only organize under the federation
banner they would soon compel the
company 20 meet their demands
The Western Federation has re-
ceived its trial by the men and, / dare
say, that they are finding out that
Meyer has been a complete failure in
rendering the miner any assistance.
on the other hand they have found
the federation what il really is. If it
had never entered Clifton the miners
and the companies would not have
lost the millions they have.
Governor Hunt made matters
worse when he went TO Clifton. lie
put himself amid the federation men
and he voiced their cause, making the
men more desperate at time they
we're in ned Of water and not FIRE.
then talked with the men personally
and pointed out how the Arizona Cop.
per company had allowed the men to
work on while they stored up the cop
per they were producing and paid the
men wages. a living wage, despite the
fact that there was no sale for the
copper they were producing at that
time. It was then. the company was
considering how long itself could ex
list and give bread TO the miner him
self and his family. You have seer
how the miner has appreciated it,"
Mr. Dawson was asked If he thought
that an early settlement was possible
and in reply he shook his head anC
said: u see nothing that looks fay
lorable"
