Besides taking up the matter Of con-

question of representation was also
considered. The three district presi-

ers will take a hand in any action the
convention might take as the men
must themselves settle everything that

the amount of business that may be
presented The belief Is general that
the miners will accept the increase.
Most of the mine owners who have
granted the wage concession do not
specify in their notices how long the
advance shall remain in force, and II
is not likely that an attempt VIII be
made by the miners in convention to
open negotiations with the operators

of an annual wage scale arrangement
