John H. Murphy sends three articles to President Roosevelt regarding violence committed as a result of the labor disputes in Colorado. These include “Died in Fear of Guards, Bullpen” about a mine owner who supported unions who committed suicide because he was afraid of being arrested; “Taken on Street and Sent Away” about a union official, Thomas Nelson, who was forced to leave his home; and “Men Beaten and Turned Loose” about men who were deported from their home and were beaten when they returned despite the fact they had special permission to do so.
