| Description | The Lumberjack, launched in January 1913 amid a timber workers' strike in Merryville, Louisiana, was a weekly publication by the Southern District of the National Industrial Union of Forest and Lumber Workers. Edited by Covington Hall, a Socialist Party member from New Orleans, the paper advocated for timber workers' unions and covered the activities of the International Workers of the World (I.W.W.). It addressed labor issues nationwide, including child labor and the Ku Klux Klan, from a socialist perspective. However, industry leaders halted its printing in Alexandria in July 1913. The publication resumed in New Orleans as the Voice of the People but ceased in December 1914. NDLI hosts contents from/of year 1913 of this newspaper. |
