Va., Feb. 28— Governcy Cornwall, accompanied by Governor-elect Morgan who will succeed him March ¢ yesterday visit- ed and inspected the working of the Willis Branch Coal Co. in Fayette county and the surrounding villages where much heaw gun fighting took place February 19. Upon the re- turn they said the town had been literally “shot off the face of the | map.” | The trip was in response to a re- *’xuesl fof additional armed protection but the governor-elect declined to say what he would do after assuming | office. Governor Cornwall. however, cribing the village said: | “Its citizens e abandoned, leav- jdng persona! cffects, furniture’/ and livestock he. . With the exception of the half fu.nished dogs, cafs and | chickens, which wander about the streets and a squad of state police on duty near the station, the town is devoid of life. The company store, office, post office, mine foreman’s home and 65 of the remaining 67 i cottages are riddled with rifle bul- llets. The condition of other cot- tages shows they have been burned or wrecked with dynamite.” “Shot Up Every Weel The governor said he learned that {every week for the past year the Ltown has been shot up.” Men who work in the neighboring mines, he added, are blamed by the coal j operators for these attacks. | William McMillen, the aeneral manager of the coal company said: Miners in this whole section struck September iy 1919. The | operators generally yielded te the | demands of the workers but this company decided to make a finish fight of it, and it has been a fight over since. Poles carrying electric current to the mine were blown up. Two charges af dynamite wrecked both inclines. The hoist house was broken into d its machinery des- troyed. The tépple was fired and . badly damaged. On February 19 i(he sub station was blown up by a charge of dynamite, the explosion being heard 72 miles away.” —— W. C. T. T.
