UNJUST PRoPAGANpA

IWIEsT yttstnia has suffered much during the
w past few months from exaggerated reports Of
conditions in the nonJunion mining Zelda From
the yeFy beginning consideration at all has been
given to the miserable reflection which selfish
propaganda has cast upon the people Of West
Virginia generally and the state government.
In a long drawn out battle between organized
labor and those operators who are holding out for
open shop. West Virginia has been the unfortunate
battle Aeld, and such has suffered tae scars and
the disagurements which any scene Of an engage
nent must inevitably incur.
It is no fault OF West Virginia that she has been
the unhappy victim OF the prolonged struggle and,
as no definite settlement Is yet IN sight, there is no
prophesytng how much longer the state must endure
the shame which selfish propaeandists have
inspired.
The last of Iris unjust propaganda has been The
wide spread publicity which has been given about
the destituuon Of the people In the nonunion coal
heids. In desire TO win sympathy for organized
labor the most dismal stories have been carried far
and wide describing the awful and inhuman
suffering which those who are out of work are
enduring in West Virginia, under the unsympathetic
gaze Of an uninterested state government and an
Indifferent people.
Contradiction of these stories has been met by
personal letters purporting to come from the
sufferers themselves asking disregard Of such
denial and soliciting funds for relief from without
the state. 1t is most unfair and unjust that West
Virginia must endure such miserable and malicious
treatment Tho statement Of Governor Morgan
published in Wednesdays West virginian will show
Just how false these stories are and how gross has
been the exaggeraton.. Not only is thare regular
assessment in organized labor which goes to provide
food and shelter for the strikers but the Red Cross
represented by local organizations, and also local
civic bodies have kept most watchtul eye on the
situation. IN the investigation conducted personally
by the governor only four fs1aieu were found to be
IN such detitution that assistance was needed and
IL was promptly rurnisacd.
The public should bear in mind that the state OF
West Virginia is the unwilling. unhappy victim of
an Unfortunate labor dispute which was not of her
instigation, nor kept alive by her wishes.
As well blame Belgium for the battles which
were fought on her territory as West Virginia for
the clash between organized labor and opposing
operators. All tae state asks is that the people
take the propaganda which would malign IT, at its
selfish, unfair value.

ESWest Yirgtniaa frankly demands Of the city
authorities the immediate cleaning up Of Water

Faitmont cannot longer be endured.
The last case coming before the mayor from
Water Street Is one more sickenng incident In the
long series OF crime and rnssdemeaaor that have
scaled from red murder down to the daily drunken
street light

revolving story but the most amazing thing
IS yet to conc! After hearing the details Of the
case, the mayor fined the girl the wretched victim
OF the brute who preys upon her, the maximum
sentence Of $25 and costs-then probably stirred
b the tender tones Of plea for mercy for the man
because OF Its being the first serious charge against
him, the mayor conferred upon this beast paitry
