MINERS WANT
MARTIAL LAW
PUT IN EFFECT
Regard Intervention
of Federal Troops
AS Victory.

Madison, W. Va, Sept 1.-(Unit.
ed Press .)-The miners object in
moving upon Logan county is &c
force the government to send fed
eral troops, their leaders informed
the United Press today.
They will cease fighting and re-
tire when the troops arrive but not
until they have forced the imposi-
ton of martial law.
Union men regard the interven-
ton of federal troops as a victory
and were holding their ground,
fully armed, to compel the gov
ernment to make good its threat to
take charge of the situation at
noon.
Cheer Harding Ultimatum.
Five thousand men strung along
the mountainous Logan county line
dent Harding's ultimatum with
cheers. They sent unofficial word
back to their own leaders that it
would be death for the latter if
they tried to come in. and turn them
back before the soldiers arrived.
Conversations with miners today
revealed their attitude.
'"The only way we can be assured
of square deal is by the presence
of federal troops. The original OBJ
ject of our march in which 5000
participated was a demonstration
to force the release of scores OF
miners arrested under state martial
law in Mingo and compel the ex-
pulsion of former mine guards from
the state constabulary.
Operators i'm Union Ranks.
when we dispersed at the in
stance of kenney and Mooney, no
further trouble would have taken
place had not the constabulary, re-
inforced by mine guards, then at
tackled the Boone county coal cor
poration mine near Sharples which
is a union stronghold in Logan
county.
This caused partial remobiliza-
ton and our ranks now include
farmers, railway men, doctors, law
yers, preachers, mine foremen, su
perintendents and even independent
operators.
We determined to make the
president make good his promise 20
send federal troops. Our work fin
ishes with their arrival. We will
probably retire soon, assured that
the regular soldiers will provide
protection for union miners in Lo-
gan county and prevent operators
and gunmen from committing fur
ther outrages.
I'VE hope that a congressional in
yestigation will result in the end
of the mine war which has black
ened the state for years and we
have every reason to believe the
probe will be impartial"
Have Own martial Law"
Some of the biggest operators in
this vicinity have openly Joined the
ranks of the crusading miners. Col
onel William Wiley, president Of
the Boone county coal corporation,
and Thomas Richards of Blair, to-
gether with other operators, have
been providing the men with pro-
visions.
While they waited for federal IN
the miners established
their own form of martial law here
in the southwest Pickets and SEN
