Board Decree is Report
tspeeIaI 70 Lac paIIy WORKED

SPRINGFIELD, Ill.,, Sept. I. - On
the heels of Frank Farrington's sus-
pension from the presidency of the
Illinois Miners Union for having sign
ed contract with the Peabody Coal
company at a salary Of $4,000 year,
movement has developed having for
its object the reinstatement of those
members who were expelled from the
union by harrington because of their
radical views and their refusal to
allow the operators to break contracts
with the union at will.
Local unions will pass resolutions
demanding the reinstatement of the
ousted hilitants. Farrington's fall has
put new spirit into the progressive
miners who had their best efforts so
often frustrated by the Vaccinations
Of harrington and his corrupt ma
chine.

union and that he grew wealthy by
forming a united front with the coal
operators against the coal diggers.
Harrington first made his acqualn-
lance with coal mining In Streator,
illinois. After considerable ups and
downs" he got to be secretary of
Local Union 800, but in a very short
time he had trouble with the union
over his carelessness in handling the
funds. This incident did not stagger
his ambition, and shortly afterwards,
we find him at sub-district conven-
ton at LaSalle, where he figured in
the proceedings by attacking the sub
district president for squandering the
funds, because the official in question
charged one dollar day for hotel ex-
pense.
In 1909 harrington ran for presi-
dent of the Illinois Miners Union and
was defeated. His friend, John H.
Walker, ran for international presi-
dent against T. L. Lewis and met the
same fate. The two defeated candi-
dates did the next best thing under
the circumstances. Walker got Job
for Harrington on the payroll of the
Illinois State Federation of Labor
while Walker was placed at the pap
Of the Illinois Miners Union.

NEW YORK, Sept. I. - "The Trac-

appearance at the shops and barns Of
the various New York traction sys-
TENS as the organ of the Traction
Workers OF Greater New York, the
union that conducted the recent UNI
successful strike against the company
union Of the Interborough Rapid
Transit company and for better work
ing conditions.
The bulletin seeks to rally the trac-
ton workers of New York, and par
ticularly the workers of the /. r. T.
to conduct the struggle for a real
union, not only by organization from
the outside but by working from with
in the so-called brotherhood" Frank

Unity Slogans.
Here are few of the slogans:
Every Traction Worker a Union
Mani You want a real union instead
of the reptile Brotherhood to which
you are now forced to belong. But
there are many ways to attain the
same end. If you are wise you will
remember the following suggestions
as to how to fight inside the Brother
hood as well as on the outside, in
order that you may more quickly have
your own union.
:. Attend All Meetinesl The com
pany has very cunningly succeeded in
disgusting you with the way the Bro
therhood meetings have been conduct
ed In the past. Their purpose is to
enable their own few paid henchman
to conduct all the work Fool them at
this game! Your duty is to attend
each and all meetings 1000 strong.
2. Fight the Fake Deleuatesl You
must oppose the fake delegates. Fight
against them! They are not working
in your own interest but in the in
terest Of the company.
8. Unite the Forces Of the Work
ersl DO not fight alone. Begin to take
careful note who else is fighting with
you. Be careful with company spies
but approach your honest brothers and
talk things over with them. Lay your
plans for your local meetings. Fight
together! Fight as onel
4. Demand Meetings on Company
Property Start the agitation for
meetings away from the company's
property. You VIII succeed in this de-
mand II you keep up the fight. Unite
for the fight for real unionl

ARTICLE I
A VETERAN member of the Illinois
Miners Union once informed the
writer that "all the coal Frank Far
rington ever dug would not keep gas
heater from freezing to death" The
speaker may have used poetic license
in order to emphasize that Earring
tons relations with the miners of I'LL
nois have mostly been as a bleeder
of union funds and willing ally OF
the coal operators in extracting as
much profit as he possibly could out
Of the bone and sinew of the coal dig
gers, but It is true that his life as
coal digger was very short.
The purpose of the following sketch
OF Farringtons career is to expose
him to the members of the Illinois
Miners Union in his true colors sc
that they may have the necessary evi
dence at their disposal for forming an
opinion as to his real character when
they cast their ballots in the ap
preaching election for the officers OF
District IL, for the next two years. Sc

main at the head Of District ~, just

when an auditing commission APP

has something to do with sewage and

that everything was sideline with

MANVILLE, X. l., Sept. 1.-Riot
guns, revoIVers and tear gas bombs
were used by state police and deputy
sheriffs against strikers of the Man.
Vllle-Jenckes cotton mill, with the re-
suit that five strikers were seriously
wounded, boy bystandeTs face torn
by revolver bullet and one deputy
and one state policeman were wound
ed by reckless shooting Of the guns
Of their own men.
An Open Shop Attack.
The strike began on August IS,
when the company started an open
shop campaign and heightened the
hours. 1t brought in non-union loom
fixers to work at the mill in place of
restoring union men it had laid off.
The workers struck. being joined by
the workers in the Globe mill at
WoonsocEet and the Social mill, max
ing some 5000 strikers in all.
On Sunday night the strikers began
to picket the mill when scabs were
learned to be arriving, brought IN with
beds and stoves and chartered in the
mill. A force of forty state constabu-
larry and deputy sheriffs had been
posted at the head of the Blackstone
river bridge to guard the plant, tho
the bridge is public property. -.
Provoke Reprisal.
The brutal behavior of the police
and the appearance of scabs in the
mill windows resulted in rain of
stones. The mill superintendent, A
Sweet, advanced on the crowd of strik,
ers, waving revolver and threaten
ing to shoot The crowd, thus pro-
voked, closed in on him and gave him
a severe beating The police then
used their clubs with increased bru-
tality.
The trouble increased by this. Last
night the crowd at the bridge had
grown to nearly 1900. When a man
tried to cross the bridge a state po-
liceman knocked him down with a
club. The crowd charged. but was
met with tear gas bombs and a brutal
clubbing.
Shoot Workers Down.
