Awesome article. --[[User:Admin|Admin]] 18:37, 7 April 2008 (CDT):''But''... do you mind if I de-Anglicize the word "organise"? :) --[[User:Admin|Admin]] 10:13, 8 April 2008 (CDT)::Yeah, sorry, I tried to go back and anglicise (ize) things. Force of habit. '''[[User:Dscosson|dscosson]]''' ··· '''[[User talk:Dcosson|talk]]''' 08:42, 9 April 2008 (CDT) ==Notes=====Dramatis personæ===*[[G. C.

If a worker was suspended by the company (without pay) that worker had to report to the company 3 times a day. Sarra says: "We [the striking workers] claim the rights of free men to earn what we can during such time , or , if our circumstances permit , to remain in our homes."

Blount, Sr.]] - counsel for Pensacola Electric Company ==Categories==We probably need to create a category for this. Something fairly broad -- I don't know if we've had enough strikes to justify a [[:Category:Worker strikes|Worker strikes]] category. (Though I'll need to look through [http://www.angelfire.com/fl5/pensacolahistory/ this] again to be sure.) What about [[:Category:Events|Events]] > [[:Category:Demonstrations & unrest|Demonstrations & unrest]]? Then it could be grouped with the [[Escambia High School riots]].

Thought you'd get a kick out of it. My favourite line is "There was a good deal of anger displayed at this juncture, and more than one pair of brass knuckles was surreptitiously handled."

If you like I'll email it to you as an attachment. I'd post it here, but it's a long article (1100+ words) and I don't really think it has a place.
