Twenty-Five Years Ago
Friday, Dec. 5, 1916.

Elizabeth Gurley Flynn spoke to
crowd in Virginia and told them that
general strike would follow the bring
ing to trial of the leaders of the IWW
now being held for the murder of
James Myron. The strike story is
given out to intimidate the judges who
have the case in their docket. Some
body is guilty of the murder and the
courts and jury will try and find the
guilty ones. AS far as the strike threat
goes, this is being sent out by the
leaders of the bunch and the miners
know or care nothing about the orders
and will resist. They put in the sum-
mer in idleness while the leaders who
advised them lived in luxury from the
dues collected, and the men are not
very keen on the strike question with
hard winter staring them in the
face. Collections have been made in
all parts of the United States for the
deefnse fund and should the attorneys
handling the case receive this fund,
they will be fixed for life.
