SBURGH (By Mail).-
Spreading around the mine fields,
worse than the "flu' ever did, is an
epidemic of bunk that the U. M. w.
A. is going to be reorganized and
that it will be stronger than ever.
Of course every miner, like all
other human beings, possesses two
ears and he opens both to let the
message of poison bunk go straight
through, in one and out of the
other. They then open their mouths
and what they tell the takers and
their poll-parrot henchmen cannot
be recorded in the columns of this
or any other newspaper.
Dipping Days Are Over.
That the miners have been duped
and kidded long enough by Lewis
and his kind, and that they will not
tolerate any more of it, is soon evil
oenced.
While the thing that prompts this
new invasion of the soId-out mine
fields by Lewis men appears to be
their need for funds, it is much
deeper than that. True, the large
army of officials and organizers, moi
to mention the many hangers-on
cost tidy sum to keep up and car
only be continued at the sufferanct
and expense of the men who dig
coal, yet this is the case only fol
outward appearances.
It must be understood, however
that without the aid of those whit
are to be victimized, this "deepel
something" cannot be put over a

However, the thing is that Muir
ray did not make any radio speeches
for Herbert Hoover and conse-
cuently Hoover is under no obliga-
lion to find him a job. He did, how
ever, campaign for Al Smith, and
thus helped to keep the workers
divided, and for this he can expect
the aid Of Lewis who, as member
Of the coal commission, will see to
it that he is permitted to solicit aims
from the miners in the form Of dues.
1t means that someone must pretend
to be the stalwart leader of the U.

collecting dues with which to pay
salaries.

includes everyone connected Off
cially with the U. M. w. A., Murray,
Kennedy and all the rest, down to

The miners are in no mood to
go to circus and could not afford
it even if they were, which means
that they are not going to pay $1.5O

ray elevated to czardom as means
of their own further ensiavement.

Murray save the miners union dur
ing the strike if he is going to be

It is Wall Streets excuse for the
continued use of the police and the
courts against the miners whenever
they deem it necessary and is in
tended to create government
agency" for this very purpose.
It will allow the oppressors of the
working class, in this instance the
mine owners, to serve notice, through
this agency, that strikes will not be
tolerated and that violation Of this
notice will be equivalent to treason
to the government.
1t means that no matter what the
operator pays the miner for wages
or what conditions of work he I'M
poses, the downtrodden mirer is
supposed to accept it as nantes
tation Of good citizenship on his
part.

DEATH CLAIMS NOTED ARTIST
 OF TERRITORY
W. E. Merrill, Sitka Artist and Photographer,
 Dies Early Sunday

i E. w. Merrill, noted Sitka artist and scientist, aged about 55 or 6( years, died in the Pioneers Home hospital there Sunday morning af- ter brief illness. He was a na- tive of Boston where several surviv- ing relatives still reside.
 Death was caused by pneumonia following intestinal influenza. He was removed from his home to the hospital last Friday and everything possible done for him.
 ] MT. Merrill came to Sitka in 1883. He, Maj. E. E. Flower, a MT. Wood cock and two others purchased a steam schooner CT sloop in Seattle and sailed from there for the Klon- dike When the party reached Sit ka, it broke up, MT. Merrill, Mai. Flower and MT. Woodcock remain ing in Sitka. The last two have been dead for several years. The vessel they sailed was beached at Sitka and stayed there until it de- cayed and fell to pieces.
 Was Real Artist
 Mir. Merrill was news photogra- pher on Boston newspaper before coming to the north. He contin- ued his photographic activities dur ing his 31 years residence in Sit- ka, and many of the finest Alaska scenes and studies in existence bear his signature. He was generally recognized as real artist, one who thought more of his work than of the financial return it might bring.
 He owned and operated a photo graphic and curio business in Sitka for many years. Unlucky the cus- tomer who for any reason displeas- ed him. For such would-be cus- toner could get no service from Merrill and instances were not rare when he invited individuals to leave the store, refusing to either show UT 5el tllcIl1 HIS wares.
 Collected for Museum
 MT. Merrill's reputation as an ornithologist was not local. His bird collections are famous. One ,iow rests in the Smithsonian h. stitution. He spent many years collecting specimens for that insti- tuition and other organizations, mounting them for display. And bis camera studies of Alaska scen- cry and objects are known through out the country. He loved the country in all it's phases and moods and endeavored to depict them in his photographs.
 For 31 years, he made his home in Sitka. He never revisited the States during that period. Tn fact, though he did much business local ly, he only came to Juneau once and he was called here then as witness in a case in the local Fed eral district court, several years ago.
 Although nothing was known here regarding plans for funeral it is thought certain it will be held in Sitka and that his remains will be inferred there.
