He traced the immediate cause to a peremptory order from the governor, Izquierdo, exacting personal taxes from the Filipino laborers in the engineering and artillery corps in the Cavite arsenal, and requiring them to perform forced labor like ordinary subjects. Until then, these workers in the arsenal had been enjoying exemptions from both taxes and forced labor. January 20, the day of the revolt, was payday and the laborers found the amount of taxes as well as the corresponding fee in lieu of the forced labor deducted from their pay envelopes. It was the last straw.

When Father McNulty was presented a purse of $ 24,000 for his personal use on the occasion of his 1908 golden jubilee of priesthood, he instead used the funds to build the Mount St. Joseph Home for Boys. Throughout his service as a parish priest, he often shared his own dole to instead feed his parish's hungry families or pay college tuitions of poor parish youth. He was also known for preserving the food and housing funds of many parish families by actually wresting pay envelopes from his reprobate parishioners before they could dissipate, these, their family's earnings, in Paterson's bars. It is said that Paterson's barkeeps came to fear the Reverend Father more than they did the police or thugs.

Oppenheim depicted labor troubles with Fabian and suffragist themes in his novel, The Nine-Tenths (1911) and in his famous poem Bread and Roses,(1911), inspired by a speech given by Helen Todd. The slogan Bread and Roses is now commonly associated with the pivotal 1912 textile workers' strike in Lawrence, Massachusetts. The poem was later set to music in 1976 by Mimi Fariña and again in 1990 by John Denver. Oppenheim's published works include Monday Morning and Other Poems (1909); Pay Envelopes (1911); The Nine- Tenths(1911); The Olympian (1912); Idle Wives (1914); Songs For The New Age (1914); The Beloved (1915); War and Laughter (1916); The Book Of Self (1917); The Solitary (1919); The Mystic Warrior (1921); Golden Bird (1923); The Sea (collected poetry – 1924); Behind Your Front (1926); and American Types: A Preface To Analytic Psychology (1931).
