Jackson of the United States district
court sentenced seven organizers of
the United Mine Workers' association
to jail for contempt of his injunction
of June 19, as follows:
Thomas Haggerty, ninety days in
jail William Morgan, Bernard ltice,
Peter Wilson, William Blakcly,
George Bacon, Thomas Laskavlsli, six
ty days each. The cases of Albert Re
pake, Joseph and George Roeski and
Steve Toenike, Hungarians, who do not
understand English, were passed until
the afternoon session, in order that in
terpreters may be present.
Mother" Jones* turn will come la
tcr. It is said she will receive a stifT
tine and will not be jailed. The court
room was filled with an intensely ex
cited crowd of miners and officials of
labor unions. Judge Jackson's hugo
frame shook with emotion as he dra
matically emphasized portions of his
decision.
Attacks on Union Methods.
The judge's decision was prefaced
by the bitterest attack" ever made on
union methods. It goes even further
than Judge Jenkins' famous order, or
the decision of Judge Kolilsaat forbid
ding pickets speaking to workmen,
The miners agree that this is the most
effective blow that could be struck
against the men's cause in their at
tempt to get out the 12,000 miners ip
the Fairmont coal field.
In my long experience on the
bench," said Judge Jackson, "I can
not recall a single occasion where any
court, either federal or state, ever
abused the writ of Injunction in what
is known as strike cases."
The court then went on to charge
•'Mother" Jones and tho others were
In a conspiracy to get the miners to
quit work. He said: "Where a con
spiracy exists to control the employes,
as In this case, either by threats, in
timidation, or a resort to any other
mode usually accompanying the action
of strikers, such action on their part is
not onlv Illegal, but a malicious and 11
legal interference with the employers'
business These defendants." he con
tinued, "are known as professional agi?
tators, organizers, and walking dele
gates. They have nothing in common
with the people who are employed In
tho mines of the Clarksburg Fuel com
pany.
Calls Them Trouble Makers.
"Their mission is to foment trouble.
Tho strong arm of the court is in
voked, not to suppress free speech, but
to restrain these defendants, whose
only purpose is to bring about strikes
by trying to coerce people who are not
dissatisfied with the terms of their em
ployment"
Judge Jackson said the utterances
of "Mother" Jones In her address near
the Pinnlcklnnick mines June 20
should not emanate from a citizen of
this country. "Such utterances," lie
remarked, "are the outgrowth Qf the
sentiments of those who believe in
communism and anarchy." It was the
abuse of free speech, according to the
Jurist, that Inspired the anarchists and
assassin to take the life of our late be
loved president.
The Judge then reviewed the speech
of "Mother" Jones, in which she is re
ported to have called the miners slaves
and cowards said she did not care
anything for injunctions—that if ar
rested the jails would not hold the agi
tators who came to take their places,
and advised the men to strike, winding
up by calling the judge a hireling of
the coal company.
Scores •'Mother" Juno*.
"It is true," Baid the court, "Moth
er" Jones denies some of these state
ments, but her denial is equivocal."
For being present, taking an active
part and applauding the speaker, the
seven defendants were held to be also
guilty of contempt.
The court took a rap at modem wom
en
in
criticising the principal defend*
ant. "It seems to me," he said, "that
it would have been far better for her
to follow the linos and paths which the.
All-Wise Being intended her sex should
pursue. There are many charities in
life which are open to her, in which
she could contribute largely to man
kind in distress, as well as a vocation
and pursuit that she could engage in
pf a lawful character, that would be
more in keeping with what we have
been taught, and what experience has
shown to be the true sphere of wom
anhood."
