Labor Will Never Forget Its Many Marty Chicago Capitalists Feared Eight-Hour Day Movement Sacco-Vanzetti Memorial Edition a pee Fight On! “Den't Moura! Organize!” These were the. last words of Joe Hill, the revolutionary peet, as the firing squad of the Utah mine owners shot him down in 1915. rae: eee In different ways, all the martyrs of labor have uttered the same words—upon the gallows, in the electric chair, be- fore the firing squad, in the hands of lynchers. Today we remember not only Nicola Sacco and Bartolo- meo Vanzetti, murdered by Massachusetts in 1927, and Joe Hill, writer of songs of the revolution. We also remember Albert R. Parsons, August Spies, George Engel, Adolph Fischer, Louis Lingg, Samuel Fielden, Michael Schwab and Oscar Neebe, the Haymarket victims of 1886, who paid the penalty in prisen cell and upon the gallows ‘for their loyalty to labor. We also remember Wesley Everest, the victim of the mob attack of the American Legion on the headquarters of the Industrial] Workers of the World in Centralia, Washing- ton, 1919. We also remember Frank Little, of the I. W. W., slain by the war fiends at Butte, Montana, in 1917, because of his loyalty to labor in the year of the American entry into the world slaughter. We also remember the many victims, men, women and children, shot down or burned to death in their tented homes, Ludlow, by the Colcrado state militia, the mercenaries of the Rockefellers and ether multi-millionaire mine owners. * * * WE WILL REMEMBER. THE WORKING CLASS NEVER FORGETS.
