The miners and operators are
swapping arbitration propositions,
but it is evident there must be
mutual concessions before they get
together. That the differences will
be amicably and justly settled at an
early period is to be hoped, but their
is ground to fear that such will not
be the case. With the government
by Injunction on their side, it is likely
the operators will go very slow in
making concessions to the striking
miners.

THE Tobacco Fair is being taken
hold of by the management In q way
that means success. We bespeak the
cheerful cooperation of our people

IT is to be earnestly hoped that
success will crown the magnificent
efforts that are being exerted by the
women of America to save the
beautiful Cuban girl, EvaDgelina
Cisneros, from the terrible fate OF
twenty years imprisonment. which
Butcher Weyler and his cowardly
cohorts appear to have mapped out
for her. When tyranny aims it's
venom and power at an innocent girl
it is time for civilization to call a
halt, and in such tone and manner
as to command obedience.
