And Who Is Responsible For This Appalling

I Want You To Pledge To Yourselves In This Convention To Stand As One Solid Army Against The Foes Of Human Labor. Think Of The Thousands Who Are Killed Every Year And There Is No Redress For It. We Will Fight Until The Mines Are Made Secure And Human Life Valued More Than Props. Look Things In The Face. Don't' Fear A Governor; Don't Fear Anybody. You Pay The Governor; He Has The Right To Protect You. You Are The Biggest Part Of The Population In The State. You Create Its Wealth, So I Say, Let The Fight Go On; If Nobody Else Will Keep On, I Will.

What One State Could Not Get Alone, What One Miner Against A Powerful Corporation Could Not Achieve, Can Be Achieved By The Union.

My Friends, It Is Solidarity Of Labor We Want. We Do Not Want To Find Fault With Each Other, But To Solidify Our Forces And Say To Each Other: We Must Be Together; Our Masters Are Joined Together And We Must Do The Same Thing.

Reformation, Like Education, Is A Journey, Not A Destination

Mourn The Dead, Fight Like Hell For The Living
