There are no limits to which
powers of privilege will not go
to keep the workers in slavery.

Boise, Idaho – Haywood Reunited with Wife and Daughters
From the Wilkes-Barre Leader of May 10, 1907:
———-
BY JOHN E. NEVINS.
Special to the LEADER.
BOISE, Idaho, May 10.-Mrs. W. D. Haywood, the invalid wife of the Western Federation secretary, is the object of much sympathy and interest. Every afternoon at 3 o’clock she is taken to see her husband behind the grated bars of the county jail. Her two daughters, aged 11 and 17 years, and the nurse or the guard detailed by the miners’ federation accompany her.
For two hours the members of the little family enjoy the association that was broken when Haywood was brought here to stand trial for his life. Promptly at 5 o’clock, in obedience to the prison rules, the visitors return to the temporary home provided for them in this city.
