union and the right of mine owners
to employ private detectives in and
around the mines.
“The men and the operators could
get together and settle this thing
were it not for the question of the
mine guards,” said Charles F. Keen-
ey, president of District-No. 17, Unit-
ed Mine Workers, who is in command
of the union forces. “But in their
present temper these men are not to
be fooled with. Right now this sit-
uation is a powder mill.”
“There is not a mine guard in Min-
go county, and there has not been for
years,” said George Bausewine, secre-
tary of the Coal Operators’ Associa-
tion of Williamson. “Private detec-
tives are employed as ether corpora-
tions employ detectives for intelli-
gence work, in and around their prop-
erties. They are not used for guard-
ing the mines.”
The question of wages hinges on
the scale paid in the Kanawha field.
The union leaders declare that adop-
tion of this scale would increase the
earnings of the miners in Mingo, while ,
the operators insist thst their miners, ,
under the scale no win force, are be- ,
ing paid more than it is possible for!,
the Kanawha miners to earn. How- j
ever, little attention is being paid tor
that phase of the controversy. Rec- ■
ognition of the union is the big issue.

HOI
Kentucky side of Tug river, a shal-
low narrow stream which for miles in
this region forms the boundary be-
tween Kentucky and West Virginia.
High mountains rise abruptly on each
side of the river, their sides covered
witha heavy growth of bushes. Along
the mountain sides are the drift mines
from which comes the coal, and nestl-
ing in the narrow valley are the little
towns where live the miners and their
families.
Fully 75 percent of the miners in
the region are native born, many of
them the descendants of pioneers who
entered the county more than 100
years ago, and who are proud of their
lineage. Some foreign-born miners
can be found in the camps, while num-
ber. of negroes are employed. Often
the miner owns a small acreage, for
which in the planting and harvesting
he will abandon the mines.
In some places the miners live in
brick cottages, each having its gar-
den plot and front porch. Such a vil-
lage is Bordertown, where early this
month miners were fired upqn from
the mountainside while going to work.
11 other villages the houses are of
framr construction, each set in its
own garden plot, and for which the
miners pay at the rate of two dollars
per month per room.
Williamson, the center of the re-
gion, is pleasantly placed in the val-
ley. with substantial buildings and
good stores. The Mingo county court
house is one of the best structures,
but the city has also is a complete
•ffiee building, while there is now in
comrse of construction a theatre which
wilt cost $250,000. The 8,000 resi-
dents of the town very generally en-
joy the prosperity which has come to
the coal trade in the past few years.
Early in the year the movement to
organize the United Mine Workers
was inaugurated by President Keeney
from district headquarters at Charles-
ton, and organizers were sent into
Mingo county. They met with such
sueeess that a demand was msde upon
the operator afor the enforcement of
the Kanawha scale and recognition
of the union. This demand the oper-
ator. refused, and the union called a
strike. The order, mine operators say,
was answered by from 1,500 to 1,800
miners, but the union officials put the
figure higher.
The campanies, through their law-
yers, took the position that the
