I Have Never Had A Vote, And

Injustice Boils In Men's Hearts As Does Steel In Its Cauldron, Ready To Pour Forth, White Hot, In The Fullness Of Time.

Life Comes To The Miners Out Of Their Deaths, And Death Out Of Their Lives

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.

Mourn The Dead, Fight Like Hell For The Living

The Employment Of Children Is Doing More To Fill Prisons, Insane Asylums, Almshouses, Reformatories, Slums, And Gin Shops Than All The Efforts Of Reformers Are Doing To Improve Society.
