520    In March 1913, labor agitator Mary Harris "Mother" Jones 
       and forty-seven other civilians were tried by a military 
       court on charges of murder and conspiracy to murder - 
       charges stemming from violence that erupted during the 
       long coal miners' strike in the Paint Creek and Cabin 
       Creek areas of Kanawha County, West Virginia. Immediately 
       after the trial, some of the convicted defendants received
       conditional pardons, but Mother Jones and eleven others 
       remained in custody until early May. This arrest and 
       conviction came in the latter years of Mother Jones's long
       career as a labor agitator. Eighty-one and feisty as ever,
       she was able to focus national attention on the miners' 
       cause and on the governor's tactics for handling the 
       dispute. Over the course of seven months, more than two 
       hundred civilians were tried by courts-martial. Only 
       during the Civil War and Reconstruction had the courts 
       been used so extensively against private citizens, and the
       trial raised a number of civil rights issues. The national
       outcry over Mother Jones's imprisonment led the United 
       States Senate to appoint a subcommittee to examine mining 
       conditions in West Virginia - the first Senate 
       subcommittee ever appointed to investigate a labor 
       controversy. Public sentiment eventually forced a release 
       of the prisoners and brought about a settlement of the 
       strike. In the face of this overwhelmingly adverse 
       publicity, the governor suppressed publication of the 
       trial transcript, and it was long thought to have been 
       destroyed.
