You ought to be out raising hell. This is the fighting age. Put on your fighting clothes.

From The New York Times: Gen. Bell Threatens to Send Soldiers to Arrest Judge Stevens
General Sherman Bell
Reporting on the war between the Judge and the General, today's
New York Times carried this story on the front page:
THREATENS TO SEIZE COURT.
-----------
Gen. Bell Talks of Sending Soldiers to Arrest Judge Stevens.
Special to The New York Times.
TELLURIDE, Col., April 12.-Gen. Sherman Bell to-day discussing the order issued by Judge Stevens at Ouray. Col., yesterday, told some of his intimates that he would issue an order for the arrest of Judge Stevens and send a detachment to seize the jurist. This declaration was not taken seriously, although Bell insisted that he was in earnest.
----------
DENVER, Col., April 12-The writs of attachment against Gen. Bell and Capt. Wells issued by Judge Stevens were placed in the hands of the Sheriff this morning, but it is stated that he will not go to Telluride to serve the writs, at least not for the present. Judge Stevens has gone to Gunnison, and those who are close to him say he will exhaust every means to force the military officials to obey his writ. Gov. Peabody to-day ordered the troops in the Cripple Creek district to return home.
Secretary Haywood of the Western Federation of Miners, in speaking of the case of President Moyer, now held by the military authorities at Telluride on the charge of desecrating the flag, said that in all probability the next move on the part of the Federation would be an original application for a writ of habeas corpus before the Supreme Court of Colorado.

From The Labor World: Arizona Union Sends Big Donation to Michigan Copper Strikers
This good news of Solidarity across 2,000 miles is from the back page of last Saturday's
Labor World:
GLOBE MINERS SEND MONEY TO MICHIGAN
----------
In the current number of the Miners' Magazine there is this pretty little story of fraternal bounds of one group of miners for their fellows 2,000 miles away:
Globe Miners' union No. 60, W. F. M., of Globe, Arizona, has proven its loyalty to the men, women and children of the copper district of Michigan, who, since July 23, 1913, have borne all the outrages that the villainous ingenuity of thugs and Cossack could inflict upon them to exterminate unionism from the profit-reservation of the copper barons.
On March 14th Globe Miners' union raised $700 through the raffle of an automobile and a dance, and forwarded a draft for this amount to be applied to the strike fund of Michigan.
Though almost 2,000 miles separate the miners of Globe, Ariz., from the strikers of the copper district of Michigan, yet that fraternity that is born of unionism spans the distance, and generous hearts in Arizona are yearning for the time when the miner of Michigan will establish the right to join hands with his brother under the flag of organized labor.

Is there aught we hold in common with the greedy parasite
Who would lash us into serfdom and would crush us with his might
Is there anything left to us but to organize and fight? For…
The union makes us strong
