out, no other organization was called

"I am sure we will win in the cop
per country. If w.e do not win this
strike we will win s6me other strike
later.
"Ten years ago the same sort of
employers as those of Calumet
clubbed and shot our members and
threw them in bull pens in Colorado.
Soldiers and gunmen were poured
into the district. They drove men out
of the state, drove them along roads
like cattle to the state line and warn
ed them never to come back. What
is the result? They congratulated
themselves and exulted over sup
pressing organized labor in their
mines. What is the result?
"Today those mirie owners and
mine maiiagers of Colorado have a
worse strike on their hands than they
had a few years back when they
thought they had suppressed union-,
ism. A strike of more men, and bet
ter equipped for a struggle, is now on.
The Colorado' strikers of today have
back of them:the United Mine Work
ers of America with a membership of
450,000 miners. They will win in
Colorado. And they will win in
Calumet. I believe the present strike
will be won. But if not, then there
will be another strike at a future date
when we will win."
