George Pettibone

Okay.

So his confession implicated union leaders, including William Haywood, George Pettibone, and Charles Moyer.

So they paid him to do this stuff.

Yes.

Yeah.

Three days? Yeah, definitely.

The other union leaders were George Pettibone.

He was eventually acquitted as well.

which has horrified not only its victims, but millions of others, and now prompts this review and protest.

Something over a year ago, Charles Moyer, William Haywood, and George Pettibone of Colorado, leading officials of the Western Federation of Miners, were overpowered and kidnapped by a gang of thugs, and torn from their families at night by conspiracy of two degenerate governors, and another notorious criminal acting for the Mine and Smelter Trust, one of the most stupendous aggregations of force and plunder in all America.

Every decent man and woman was horrified by this infamy, and the whole working class of the nation cried out against it.

Was Roosevelt also horrified? Yes.

He is fulfilling his obligation to the gentlemen who put up the coin that elected him, paying off the mortgage they hold upon his administration.

Theodore Roosevelt is swift to brand other men who even venture to disagree with him as liars.

he according to himself is immaculate and infallible the greatest liar is he who sees only liars and others when theodore roosevelt president of the united states denounced charles moyer William Heywood, and George Pettibone as murderers, he uttered a lie as black and damnable, a calumny as foul and atrocious as ever issued from a human throat.

The men he thus traduced and vilified, sitting in their prison cells for having dutifully served their fellow workers, and having spurned the bribes of their masters, transcend immeasurably the man in the White House, who, with the cruel malevolence of a barbarian, has pronounced their doom.
