Stringer on Pikes Peak

Even a newspaperman with Stringer MacKail’s brand of courage knows you can’t cover a stalemated miners’ strike without getting on somebody’s fightin’ side. But that won’t stop Stringer from trying to get some ink on the gold miners’ sit-down out in Cripple Creek. Unfortunately, the only word he’s heard so far is vamoose. Seems the Mine Owners’ Association doesn’t take kindly to pesky reporters and would like to put Stringer out of commission—for keeps. That is, if Big Bill Heywood and his Federation of Miners don’t do it first.
