SEVERAL LIVES LOST Salary Mutter Although In Question Are Sut Ouutntf a Much Dis turbance as the Demand for ltocugiiittun of Union. " . WILLIAMSON, W. Va., July 27 The campaign of the United Mine Workers to organize the 5.00U min ers In the Mingo county bituminous coal field has precipitated a situa tion which each side declares can only end when It has won complete victory. In the conflicts growing oui of this move 12 or more persons have lost their lives. Wages, appar ently, form a secondary considera tion, the battle being waged around recognition of the union and tin right of mine owners to employ pri vate detectiv.es in and around the mines. "The men and operators could get together and settle this thing were it not for the question of the mine guards," said Charles F. Keeney, president of District No. 17, United Mine Workers, who Is in command of the union forces. "But In their present temper these men are not to oe fooled with. Right now this situ ation la a powder mill." "There is not a mine guard In Mlngu county, and there has not been for years," said George Bause- wine, secretary of the Coal Opera tors association, of Williamson. Private detectives are employed af other corporations employ detectives for intelligence work In and around their properties. Thsy are not used for guarding the mines." The. question of wages hinges on he scale paid in the Kanawha Held. 1 he union leaders declare that adop tion of this scale would increase the earnings of the miners in Mingo, while the operators Insist that their miners, under the scale now In force, are being paid more than It is pos sible for the Kanawha minerB to earn. However, little attention I Being paid to that phase of the con troversy. Recognition of the union s the big Issue, The Mingo Meld Includes all of Mingo county and the mines along he Kentucky-side of Tug river, a shallow, narrow stream which for miles In this region forms the bound- iry between Kentucky and West Vir ginia. High mountains rise abrupt ty on each side of the river, tlieif sides being covered with a heavy irowth of bushes. Along the moun ialn sides are the drift mines from which comes the coal, and nestling in the narrow valley are the little towns where live the miners and their families. Fully 75 per cent of the miners In the region are native Dorn, many oi them the descendants of pioneers who entered the county more than 100 years ago, and who are proud of their liueage. Some foreign-born miners can be found in the camps, while numbers of negroes are em ployed. Often the miner owns a small acreage, for which in the planting and harvesting he will abandon the mines. . In some places Hie miners live In brick cottages, each having its gar den plot and front porch. Such a vll lage Is Bordertown, where early this month miners were fired upon from the mountainside while going to work. In other villages the houses are of frame construction, each Bet in its own garden plot, and for which the miners pay at the rale of two dollars per month per room. Williamson, the center or me region, is pleasantly placed In the valley, with substantial buildings and good stores. The Mingo county courthouse is one of the best struc tures, but the city hall also is a com plete office building, while there Is in course of construction a theater which will cost $250,000. The 8no residents of the town very generally enjoy the prosperity which has come to the coal trade in the past rew years. Early In the year the movement to organize the United Mine Workers was Inaugurated by President Keeney from district headquarters in Charleston, and organizers were sent Into Mingo county. They met witn such success that a demand was made upon the operators for the en forcement of the Kanawha scale and recognition of the union. This de mand the operators refused, and th union called a strike. The order, mine operators say, " answered by from 1500 to 1800 miners, but th.; union officials put the figure higher. The companies, tnrougn tneir law yers, took: tne position mm me nouses built for the miners who had ATTENTION NOULK9, Meeting of Shrlner Club Wed nesday evening at t o'clock and Shrlner picnic Friday afternoon.

In some Instance, held that if the companies wanted the house of a man they must ob tain possession of It by due process of law. Numbers of miners were evicted from company houses, and It was for that purpose private detectives, "mine guards" the miners term them, were sent to Matewan, June 19, and where In the light which fol lowed the eviction of five families, ten persons were killed. Many miners, however, moved from company houses without pro test, and the United Mine Workers established for such persons tent col onies along the Tug river near the places of their former employment. There the strikers and their families live In army tents, and there they declare they will stay until the strike has been settled and they have re turned to work.
