BRAY, AN ARRESTED * WINNIPEG STRIKER. if Meeting In the City Birk On Thurs- day Evening--The Story of the Winnipeg Strike Told. A mass meeting of the local la- bor unions was held in the City Park 'on Thursday evening to hear an ad- dress by R: E. Bray, one of the Win- including many iff | women and business men of the city were present, The labor men met lat the hall on Princess street at {7.30 p.m. and went from there td the park arriving at 8 o'clock. Mr, {Bray spoke for nearly two hours. At 'tho conclusion of his address peti- |tions were circulated for signature asking jury trial for all persons ar- rested for offen®®s during the strike, and subscriptions were asked for [their defence. Mr. Bray im opening his address stated his object was to arouse pub- lic opinion and bring pressure to bear upon the cabinet at Ottawa, which he declared, is composed of a lot of old women; to demand trial by jury for all strike leaders, and '10 raise a fund to defend men plac- ed in jail in different Prt of Can- ada. Men, he ;5aid, had heen sent to internment camps without the semblance of a trial. He told of the labor difficulties at Winnipeg, leading up to thé strike. The total number of men, women and girls out on strike' was 35,000, and at the end 'of twenty-five days there had sot been a single com- plaint of a breach of law and order. He explained the use made of the that there was no design to over- throw authonity, It was apparent that people would suffer if bread and milk were not obtainable and the wbrkmen's council ordered the bak- ors and milk vendors to their work. They refused to go unless they were given permit cards showing that they had the approval of the strike committee and the cards were is- sued, The same was true respecting the theatres, the proprietogs of which asked for the committee's placard for their own protection He condemned sin severe terms the Winnipeg newspapers' interpreta- tion of the cards and placards, None of the afiiliated trade unions were at any time "ordered" by the committee to strike. ~All of those that 'struck in sympathy did so of their own accord, and after a prop- er ballot had been taken, to support the metal and building tradés in their fight with ithe capitalists. He condemned the oftizens' committee of one thousand which he said was composéd of merchants, and mem- bers of the board of trade, and it dominated the affairs of the city. For five weeks all activities were completely tied up, and the number of strikers increased to 35,000 at ithe end of ten days simply to prove that men and women aad a right to organize, § principle that had been repeatedly affirmed by Premier Bor- den himself. Throughout the strike the citizens committes carried on a canypaign against the strike com- mittee and spread stories that the strikers were trying to effect a re- volution, The eity police wers true to labor and when ordered to Sign an agreement denying their organiza~ tion 'went on strike. The street trouble was due to the green econ- stables employed to fill their places, The returned soldiers were hear- 'ly in sympathy with the strikers and 10,000 marched with them to the Manitoba legislature, the speak- er taid. Pte. Toping, V.C., was un- horsed by former members of his own battalion for tiding them down, He de- fcribod his own arrest and how he was tgken to Stoney Mountain penitentiary with other members, and said it was the intention of the government to deport foreign born Strikers without a trial by jury for an offence against the laws of the country. One of the arrested lead- ors served three years at the front and was twice wounded, He was born in Russia and was brought, to Canada 'when a child. He was lib- erated after three weeks' confine- ment at Stoney Mouwlain, He suf- fered from shell shook and was ex- aminéd by a medical board ag to his Sanity but was subsequently releas- e The speaker 'condemned what he called Prussian methods in dealing with the strike. Pho food at Stoney Mountain peniteniiary was not fit to eat, but unlike Tom Kelly, the con- victed ler, the men were mot al- food sent to them, while there, and were locked in cells like comvicted griminals, despite the fact that no man ean be placed in a penitentiary without a certificate o conviction of an offence. strike cards which, he said, proved | Letter fo the Editor | The English Girl. Portsméath, July 10.--(To Editor): As a reader of your val uable paper I beg permission to occupy a small sphee in Your eol- umns to do justice to the contre- versy that has been waging on the intricate subject of "The Canadian vs the English Girl" Before entering upon any discussion we must first of all understand the conditions un- der which the above mentioned girls have been living during the past four and a half years, Secondly We must study character as portrayed in both these girls, Thirdly their home life and lastly but not least, their useful- ness in the maternal sphere of life, in order that we might arrive at a Just and fair comglusion. To any one of us who have been overseas during the great war it is as a mat- ten of fagt very true that the English girl lived under great stress and un- derwent much privation ang hard- ship, Canadian girls never have gone, or in al probability never will, and this is what hag made op | helped tp make such an impression ion. the Ganadian soldier, Another reason why our soldiers {speak go highly of the English gir] is that while she may have had to work hard on Very meagre meals, With which they had to lye and be content, they found time to entertain their cousins from across the seas, ! who were fighting for them, ana for! the honor of Libeity, Truth and Jus- | tice coupled with the righteousness of living which form the principles | of democracy, and 1 am sure the Canadian soldier did his duty nobly and well, to bring about the peace | which We are entering upon to en- | Joy for generations to come, As do the character of the Canadian girls | We must adm it is beyond reproach as is also that of her English sis- | ters, for from the daughter of the | earl and duke of England. the Eng- "lish girl has done her duty to her country and to the Empire of which | We are so proud, to be known to the world a8 citizens. The Canadian {girls are not mo hospitable owing to !the fact that the late war Was not so ireal or vivid to them, as they only Saw the men, bn their return to Can- jada, who were then almost well. and | furthermore the majority of Canad- ian "girls have not lost much sleep and never had to live in fear of an air raid or enemy warships shelling {their homes. Miss Gladys Hoo 'many Canadian sol 'ried to English gi | will is absurd. as the fame men {might marry a Canadian girl and be | Just as sorry, for no man is going {to be foolish enough to marry any ' girl unless he likes 'the girl to whom he is engaged to be married. We are all human beings and are all sus- 'ceptable to make mistakes in life, Because an English girl comes to this country to make an honest liv- ing and does not do as well 'as _per- haps we thought she should is ne reason Why 'we should throw 'her down, for let me remind our Can- adtan sisters "hat in order for us to be true Canadians we must be truly 1 British, for are we not protected by 'the British Davy which have go nob- ly guarded our fair shores from enemy invasion and does not the Union Jack float over our land, which, as the world knows, is the symbol 'of justice and equality to all over whom it proudly waves? There is no 8ainsaying the fact that the girls of Canada have done their duty nobly and well. I refer to the Canadian nurses, Who have certain: ly made an honarable fiame for themselves who in Some cases have laid down their beautiful and use- ful lives for the common good of the 'world and our great and grand em- pire of which we as true Canadians are ng royally proud to be eiti-" ns. 1 The Canadian soldiers' part in this Breat war will ever be remembered by the world for: ithe valotous deeds they have, ds an Army, performed and through their daring and self. sacrifice have emblazoned the name of Canadg on the scroll of the en- lightene world . that Right js Might, and that Justice will prevail, I might say that not so very long 4go an organization made up . of Canadian women and 8irls known as 'the W.CT.U, thought it wise to 1e~ frain from sending the much need- ed comfort of a adisn wounded Spitals in England which this or- 8anization thinks is to the'r credit, As 40. the other remark of "Miss Hooper's regarding the Toking ot th per's remark that diers were: mar- rls against their cigarettes by English girls, 1: t add tie same condition is proven, 'An this country, and. the United dtes, and among theatrical per TS an of which' the majority of our iem= : .
