Bisbee daily review., 1917-08-16

orator say in the park at Bisbee few days before the great drive. The wob- bly,, he said, had asserted that the mining companies received profit of $40 for every days labor performed and that the miner should and would demand a six-hour day and $20 pay for it, and when they got that they would demand that the working day be cut to four hours. Besides the pub lie expressions, like this, the 1. w. w.. crowd had visited the homes of work ing men and threatened to dynamite their houses if they did not join the strikers.
 s. P. Applewhite, when called, ex- cused himself by saying that public speaking was not in his line, but that he approved all that had been said in support of the loyalty league which he assisted in starting at Phoenix.
 Judge Sames was then asked to ad- dress the meeting and he did so in his usual forceful and earnest manner. He said that this was his first attend ance of the league, but that he en- dorsed its purposes. He said the time and justification was at hand now for an organization of the character of the league. Every other consideration must be set aside now and give way to the unalloyed support of the gov ernment. He doubted if there was full realization of the enormity of the task which this government has justly assumed in this war, and declared that the time had arrived when an align ment must be assumed by all. Any man who fails or refuses to aid the government is unworthy the name of American. This is time for organiz- ing industries as we'll as organizing armies, as it was as necessary to keep the industries going as to provide men in the trenches. Any effort to handi- cap or hinder these industries is Urea son.
 Dr. N. c. Bledsoe, of the Bisbee dele gation, was next called. He said, in reference to the recent incident in Bis bee that occasions and conditions sometimes are encountered which can not be efficiently handled in perfect ly legal manner. The necessity for loyalty is often overlooked until some such condition arises and is handled in a community. Results in Bisbee have been good and now the people are alive and solidified in the deter imitation to keep the district clear of sedition in the future. Our best citi- zenship has been welded in an effort to put forth every effort in aid of the government and to suppress treason and sedition. He referred to speech made by Governor Campbell during his recent visit there in which the execu- tive said that he was charmed with the American spirit which he had en- countered in Cochise county and Bis bee, declaring that events were some times necessary to bring people to- gether. pr. Bledsoe declared that without loyalty there could be no sue cess in any walk of life; loyalty is necessary in business, in home build ing and protecting, in war and in peace. He said that business men, capitalists and wage earners and pro- fessional men are all laborers and the labor of one is as necessary to the wei fare of a community as the other.
 Strong. eloquent and patriotic speeches were made by Judge Doan and J. F. Boyle, in which they urged that this was time for organization for aiding this country in the great strug- gle in which it was engaged.
 M. w. Merrill extended an invita- ton to members of the Douglas Loy- atty league to visit Bisbee next Sun day evening, when an open air meet
