from General Lawton written to him

II win be sean that General Law

the language that has proved to be

certainly should halt not only the con-

WILL CELEBRATE
Miners Thruout Iowa to Commem-
crate a Victory.
an INCREASED WAGE SCALE APRIL 1,
Celebrations of the Event Will be Held
March 3l-J. 2. Byrne, of Ottumwa,
VIII Speak to the Miners
at HIteman.
From MONDAYS Daily.

From Mondays Daily.
The miners, generally, thruout Iowa,
will lay-off Saturday, March 81, and
celebrate the victory which the organ
ization succeeded in obtaining from
the operators in the matter of an adj
vance in the wage scale TO be paid dur
ing the coming year. On April the
new scale will go into effect and the
miners are prepared to celebrate the
occasion appropriately.
Hiteman, Centerville, Keb and Oska-
loosa are among the many places in
this part of the state where the miners
will observe the day. J. f. Byrne, of
this city, eN-presidenu of the State Fed
GRAFTON, will deliver an address at
Hiteman, and John Ream, of Beacon,
ex-president of the U. NJ. w. of A., of
Iowa, will speak at Keb.
The adoption of uniform scale in
the state is the commencement of a
new era in the coal business in Iowa.
Next year it will be possible for the
state to enter the national agreement
and be governed by the rules existing
In all of the other great coal areas in
the country. The mine workers OF the
state are working now, and have been
for some time, in company with the
mine organizations in the other states,
bun the operators have had to be gov
erned entirely by local interests and
have not been able to have any con-
nection with the operators in the 9TH
er states. The possibility of shipping
IN coal to the state from outside at
rates that permitted it to be sold in
competition with Iowa coal has in the
past prevented the operators from be-
ing with their associates in the bust
ness in other states. But in the flu
ture the operators and miners working
together and with the operators and
miners of other sections of the coun-
try, will enable the coal business to be
conducted without friction more than
will be met with at the annual settle
ment of the agreement for the entire
| country.
The going into effect of the new
scale attaches considerable expense to
the different operators. 1t provides
that new screens shall be put in and
these will cost each operator several
hundred dollars. The size of the holes
IN the screens has been decreased in al,
OF the districts in the state, and the
bars OF which the screens are to be
composed are to be flat instead of dia.
mond as heretofore. Among the rules
adopted at the joint conference was
one which permitted the operators il
any district to determine locally with
their employees whether the bars
should be fiat OF diamond. If they de.
sired to retain the diamond shaped
bars the size of the holes has to be
decreased correspondingly. The oper-
ators have until June to provide the
new screens determined upon under
the new scale.
