collective efforts of the miners them.

ed by every honorable means at my
command that they take such action
as would bring about this much desir-
ed result.
II feel that if the Iowa miners AMI
other Industrial workers were properly
sity of giving the hospital the support
1t deserves, 1t would prove great
blessingvtO them and the cost would
be very little as compared with the
vast benefits to be derived.
II have no hesitancy in saying that
most heartily approve of the plans
adopted for carrying on the campaign
for the continuance of this hospital in
Des Moines. I shall always be glad to
lend all the assistance can, and
trust as result of the effort now be-
