From the Spokane Industrial Worker of January 12, 1911:

FROM COALINGA.

I have been working here for a couple of weeks on a building. Wages fair ($3 for 8 hours common labor), but “hash” and “slops” are away out of reach. There will be some street work here after New Years, but I would not advise any body to come over here unless they’ve got something rattling in their pockets.

Yours for freedom,
HILL, L. U. NO. 92 
[Portland, Oregon]
