Mount Olive is a small town of 2,000 people best known for its memorial to Mary Harris Jones, a famous 19th century trade unionist who worked throughout America for workers' rights. She participated in the Virden miners' strike of 1898. Before her death at the age of 100 in 1930, Mary Jones asked to be buried with "her men," all those she fought so hard for in their struggles. On her tombstone is carved the phrase, "Let no traitors breathe on my grave." Marie Harris Jones gave her name to a famous left-wing magazine, Mother Jones Magazine
