BY RIEGFrtlEb t. WEYER International'. News Service Staff Correspondent. (Copyright, 1921, by the International News Service.) NEW YORK, Sept. 12. The Weat Virginia mining war, which has again necessitated federal Intervention. Is, in the last analysis, an Armageddon be tween organiJted capital and organized) iaor. i pon us ultimate, outcome which seems far off for the present government .Intervention etin only en force un armistice 'but cannot end the war hinges, primarily, the issue of the closed or open shop. The struggle between the conl ope rators on tho one side and theUnited Mih? Workers of America on the other! revolves around the non-union coal fields in the, southern part of the state, adjacent to the border of Ken tuckyind West Virginia., Thero are altogether 92.000 miners In West Virginia. Approximately two thirls o( this total are . union men. There are altogether some 40.000 min ers in the southern part of the State, of whom 15,000 are union miners In" Mingo County. Tho northern part Is almost solidly organized by the L'nlpn. Ad Test of the Open Shop But buwveen Mingo and the North lies the crucial coal district the (luy an Valley, In Iogan County. This Is the richest "black diamond" field in the country and one of the richest In the world. Together with various un organized districts to the south It pro duces enough coal to supply the whole of the United states in an emergency From theso mines la derived the finest grade of bituminous coal to be found anywhere on the fa.ee of the globe. They hold the key to the country's coal Industry. Con"0.uentfy they form the crux of the tttnnlo capital-labor strunie which once again has come to a bjoody climax. These mines are unorganised. With them stands or falls the open shop. Logan County is tho bulwark of the coal operators la their determined last stand against unionism. To get these mines orffsniwd Is the nll-ovcrsh.vlow-ing aim of tho United Mine Workers of America. To bring theje non-union miners numbering between 15,000 and 2O.000 men Into tho field of tho American 'Federation of Labor is the dream 9t more than half a million union miners in all parts of the coun try. The coah-operators, on the othor hand, are not one whit 1ms determined to fight this unionizing effort to the bitter end. Tho whole history of tho unionizing; of the West Virginia coal fields is written in the crimson of Imman Mood. The organization of most of the fields .'was accomplished only after the miners moved on them en masse. Nine years ago they swept down upon the Paint and Cabin Creek Mines, In Kanawha County,- unloosing civil war that cost 600 lives. In 1019, in the.mid'st of tho wnr, tho great national coal strike was wrecked against the rock of non-unionism in tho south of West Virginia, notably the Loirnn mine, as well as the unor ganized Ml two fields, whlrh kept sup plying I lit nation wall steady streams or tho vital "black dlufnonds" when the coal fields of tlte rent of the coun try woro nil ul pract Scully drum-tight. . ', Ixigun Is Verltatilo Arw-riul1' ' That crisis uccentuuted the lesson to, both sides that in these regions lay the battlcfNld of Armageddon. Since then both the operators and the thlmtra have prepared feverishly for the su. ' preme contest. Olgantlo sums of money, untold p'a'ltltleii of arms and leflons ,of men of dwithdefytiig. vulor and iron will aro.ut the disposal of oat h Hid. . ' ' " - - - The operators, Unequivocally deny ing tlio right to organise o the part of the I'tilted Mine Workers of-Amcrl--ca, employ a veritable utmy tt mine guards, known as the I!ald win-Felts detectives, to prevent by force any und all attempts to organize'. Allied with these private detectives Is a prl vato army maintained by the-pcra- tors In Logan County, under the su preme commnnd" of Sheriff Don Chafin "Oentleman'1 Chafln, a they call him, for hisfame as a handler of guns Is enhanced by his being a col lege man nd for the maintenance of which army tho coal operators aye ' levying so much per ton of coal. 'Hint tho present bloody clash was. "bound to come sooner or later was a foregone conclusion with all those fa miliar with th.- situation. The sur prise to them was that It did not come sooner. "Trigger Trull'? Served as Spark1 ' But the proper psychological back- , ground of "action" was given at this particular1 Juncture for both sides 'by the" prospect of the second 'Trigger Trjal" beginning In Williamson, .W, Va., September . There, In the little county courthouse of "Bloody Mlngo,"! a dozen or more of the same men who last March was acquitted of tho charge of murdering; Detective Albert Felts, are to stand trlai ognlji .before the same bar of Justice, on the second of seven indictments growing out of Jhe .

Bid HAtfield, was- killed last month at Welch, W, Ya together with Kd Chambers, youngest of the sixteen defendants, by C. E. Lively, "jitar sleuth'1 fW the Baldwin-Felt agency.' It Is proper to Interpolate here that the mining struggle Is no .different from warf.trc of any other sort In that propaganda Is one of the main weap ona of the mountainous battlefields and that both sides are making liberal use of It. One of the essential art$ of the propaganda game being to "cre ate utrnosphere" hostile or friendly the killing of thj young Chief of I'ollq) of Matewan and the forthconiihgnw'' ond Matewan murder trial was seised upon t the psychological moment and duly linked, were profusely exploited 1oth by the coal operators and 4y the union miners for their respective pur 1 FALL VISITS WiLO PART OFPARK DESPiTESTORM YELLOWSTONE PA15K, Bept 1J (t:.
