srHAXEM MANEN-s EREAK.
nc Worries Ills Party Associates by
Revealing Party Secrets.

Prom the Charlie ton Gazette.
Speaker llanen let the cat out Of
the Bag when be stated. in the heat
OF debate on the question OF taxa
ton in the constitutional committee
hat the Tobacco Trust contributed
a large sum Of money 30 the Repub-
licAn campaign fund III this State
last year, + successful, would re-
peal the tax on the sale Of GIG ,rcttcs.
Other Republicans OF the committee
saw that the Speaker had made a
serious blunder in Thus revealing
party secrets, ana made an effort to
whistle him down or get him to
change the subject. They tried to
treat it as a joke and squIrmod and
twisted III their seats. They want
cd to make it appear that possibly
the Speaker dId not mean what he
said, but he reiterated the state
mcnt and impressed upon his party
associates that he meant what he
said and knew what he was talking
about.
Speaker Ianon is considered
very high authority in the Repub-
licun party and his statement will
be accep ed as trne. Everybody is
aware OF the fact that tie trusts
contributed The money to run the
Republican campaign IN this State
last year, but they will be indebted
to Speaker Hanen for the partleu-
lars of the bargain between his
party and the Tobacco Trusts.
Everybody is also aware Of the
fact that the bill repeating the
tax on cigarettes was Struggled
through each house Of the legisla-
ture last winter under a false title
GA bill to amend the license
lava title in which cigarettes, the
subject of the bill, was not men
toned. The one thing which tho
people would like to know ia, how
much did tho Republican cam
paign committee get for the Job?

Virginia CoaI-Engineers WIN
Not Join the Movement.

Wheeling, July 26.-Eugene V. Debs
Mill be the first Of the labor leaders to
arrive in Wheeling to attend the con-
ference Of executive officers of the va
fious labor organizations OF the coun-
try called by President Ratchford of
the Miners union to consider ways and
means to bring success to the coal
strike.
He comes from Fairmont this after
noon and will be met by a committee
on reception appointed by the Ohio Nas-
ley Trades and Labor assembly. Ad-
vices received by local labor leaders are
that nearly all Of the executive officials
of the national labor organizations Will
come to Wheeling for tomorrow's con-
ference.
AS to the outcome of the conference
there is much uncertainty though 1t is
claimed that the result will be the call
ing upon the iremen, brakemen and
conductors to refuse TO haul trains car
rying West Virginia coal. There is nc
hope of ability to have the railroad en-
gineers join in this movement. In fact

vlews OF a LeadIng Labor Man.

Pittsburg. Kan. July Pa leading
labor man who has been national presi-
dent of one Of the greatest labor organi-
cations in the United States said:
1.-THE operators must not think they
can smuggle coal out of Kansas 10 go
into strike territory. 1t is one Of the
doctrines Of organized labor that when
ever one set of men commence TO do
work that is to the injury of organized
labor the work becomes scab work. The
miners of southern Kansas are union
men. AS long as they mine coal for
Kansas and territory which they have
been accustomed TO supply they are oc-
cupylng neutral ground and are not in
terfering. When they mine coal TO be
used in territory usually supplied by
miners who are striking. they become In
the eyes Of organized labor what we call
scabs.
1T makes no difference If the Burling-
ton coal which was transferred in Kan
sas City few days ago was for the use
of the Burlington or to be furnished TO
other railroads. II it is used by the
Burlington in territory that has been
supplied from points In Illinois where
there is a strike, the coal les nonuhion
coal as soon as 1t gets into strike terri
tory"
