lined around the hall, and some in seats, to see
who said what, Some of the best union men when
they saw what was framed got so sore they
couldn't hold themselves, and they went out.
First everybody was made to take off his hat
and stand up while the band played "My Country

the Rev. Jordan was chairman, and with him We're
business men from the Chamber of Commerce and
Captain May.
Rev. Jordan made speech saying the COM

snake without mercy. He said he was as good
Union man as anybody and that he knew the men
better accept the company offer if they didn't
want something to happen to them. He limited
that there would be patriotic citizens who we're
going to root out all who keep up strike and deal
with them with heavy hand. Then he said he was
proud Of the police and the company detectives
and the constabulary that would protect any man
who wanted to return to work.
Then a stool that was framed for the job got
up and said he moved that everybody go back to
work, and the priest said, Everybody in favor
say "Aye," and all stools yelled aye" Only one
Savish fellow had the quits to yell "Now and the
company detectives all eyed him and some came
nearer him. Then we went out and the Cossacks
rode around the street waving their clubs and
saying get home. 'Move on!
The papers announced next day the strikers
meeting had voted unanimously to return to work.
And when the strike committee called meeting
next day, the police barred the hall door and
wouldn't let anybody in, saying their wasn't any
