Western Federation Leaders In Calu
met Strike Charged With
Conspiracy.
L’ANSE, Mich., July 16.—With
more than a dozen attorneys on hand
to represent state and defense, the
trial of Charles H. Moyer, president
of the Western Federation of Min
ers, Guy Miller, J. C. Lowney and
William Mills, members of the na
tional executive council, together
with thirty-one other officials and
members of the federation on charges
of conspiracy, was scheduled to start
this afternoon before Judge Patrick
H. O’Brien, of Calumet, In the Baraga
county circuit court. The trial is
the direct outcome of the grand jury
investigation of alleged violence by
strikers in- the recent labor war in
the Michigan copper country.
Under the Michigan law, the ot-\
fense charged against the labor lead- *
ers constitutes a misdemeanor, not a
felony. Moyer and his associates are
directly charger with conspiracy to
prevent the operation of mines by
violence or other means. The trial
here establishes a precedent. Inas
much as charges of similar nature
never before have been lodged against
any labor organization Or Its officials.
Rumors were 'widely clrciiulated In
the court. room just before 'he start
of the trial that the prosecution
would move for a change of venue,
on the ground that it would be im
possible to secure a conviction
against the federation officials in
Baraga county. There was no con-,
firmation, both Special Prosecutor
George E. Niehols, in charge of the
prosecution, and' Assistant Deputy;
General L. W. Carr, appointed by
•the State to aid Nichols, refusing to
discuss the report.
One change of venue already has.
been made in the case, Judge O’Brien;
ordering a transfer from Houghton
county to Baraga on motion of the,
defense attorneys -several months
ago. Judge O. N. HHton, of Denver,
chief counsel of the Weestern Fed
eration of ^fitters. Is directing -the
defense of the Indicted labor leaders!
Aided by Attorney Angus Kerr, of
Calumet, ’federation -counsel in the
copper country, and several Other
lawyers.

WANT THE MOOSE
a new n
; Would Amalgamate Order of Alas
i
ka Moose With the Order of
Loyal Moose.
National Director J. Hederick
Johnson, of the Loyal Order of
Moose of the World, is endeavoring
to have the local lodge of Moose join
the Loyal Order of Moose in a body
and to take out the charter for Val
dez Lodge No. 1427, which will be
organized at once.
Mr. Johnson, in an interview with
a representative of the Prospector,
stated that he had been authorized
by the Grand Lodge to offer to the
entire membership of the Order of
Alaska Moose membership In the
Royal Order of Moose without extra
cost or without the payment of in
itiation fee and only agreeing to
live under the rules laid down by
the charter and the constitution of
the Loyal Order.
Mr. Johnson states that the order
has many benefits to give to its mem
bers beside the sick payments of $10
a week in case of sickness or Injury.
The lodge maintains homes for its
aged and .dependent members and
the members of the immediate fam
ily of the Moose, the doors of 2,f)00
lodges are opened w'ith a club room
in sixteen cities in Alaska and in al
most every city from Manila to Ber
lin and from Nome to Panama, and
the free service Of a physician for all
members atul their immediate fam
ily. i
At Mooseheart, near Chicago, the
Loyal Order maintains a home for
orphans and widows and aged mem
bers of the order and also vocation- 1
al school for the education of the
children of Moose.
When asked by a representative of
the Prospector if members of the lo
cal Moose lodge did not care to take
out the benefit membership could
they still remain a member of the
Loyal Order of Moose. Mr. Johnson
stated that the charter provides for
two classes of membership, social
and benefit, and that by the payment t
of 50 cents a month one retains so
cial membership and when paying
$3.50 a quarter are entitled to doc
tor’s service, $10 per week if sick or
injured, the services of the home at
Mooseheart or the tuberculosis home j
in Arizona.
The Order of Alaska Moose, which
was established in 1900, has a large
membership in all parts of Alaska,
but maintains only the Valdez lodge,
no subordinate charters having been ■
granted excepting at Slate creek in
the early days when meetings were
held in the northern camp.
Ruling Spirit Thomas has request
ed all members of fine Alaska Moose
to attend the meeting tonight to dis
cuss the matter and to hear Mr.(,
Johnson, who will speak. j
