MINE MEN ORGANIZE
Iowa Coal Operators Organization
Perfected and Officers Chosen.


operators and mine owners held In
the city Monday for the purpose OF
forming state organization and the
same was effected and the officers |
were chosen.
One of the things that has tended
to bring the Iowa operators together
is the fact that there will be nation
al meeting of the operators and the
mine workers that will be held at
Indianapolis on the 23d of January
and it was desided that the Iowa
men should be represented at the
meeting. Hence the organization OF
the state body to secure representa-
ton in the national meeting. There
were 81 companies doing business in
the state represented in the meeting
yesterday and practically every mine
of any size in the state was repre-
sented with the exception of the
What Cheer district.
There were rules and bylaws
adopted for the organization and the
officers there authorized were elected
and are as follows:
Fl L. Watermen, Ottumwa, pre-
sident.
G. H. Morris, Des Moines, vice
president.
L. R. Rosebrook, Oskaloosa, secret
airy.
T. w. Carpenter, Boone, CORE
spending secretary.
E. II. tombstone Mendoza, Missouri
treasurer.
The officers of the organization will
comprise the executive committee
for all matters of conference and the
} like that may come before the associ-
i alton.
? The delegates to the national con-
vention that will be held at Indiana
polls will be sent from the various
) districts and the names have not yet
] been reported.
The deliberations of the body Mon
day were presided over by D. Ryan
of Des Moines, and l.. r. Rosebrool
was secretary of the meeting.
There will be another meeting o
= the organization some time after tn
meeting of the national body and
e is likely that this city win be chosel
: as the meeting point on account o
) its central location.
