CommendabIe Action.

The city is to be commended
for purchasing street posts and
street labels. This is something
which this paper has often agitat-
ed. What Florence needs is
properly nun bered houses and the
streets named so that person can
be readily directed to any part of
the city. The posts are to be
furnished by the Western Anchor
Fence company, of Denver Their
salesman, Il r. Beck, went before
the council Monday evening and
explained his business The city
fathers at once saw where the posts
were just the thing and gave him
an order for two dozen. This
number will answer the purpose
for a time, but the people of Flor
ence ask for even better service
than this, and probably more will
be purchased later,

SITUATION UNCHANGED.
Coal Timers Still Out But Hone
for Early Settlement.

The situation at the coal camps
today is about the same as it was
yesterday. No men are working
and the mines are closed down.
Yesterday was the first day that
the men We're out, they having
loaded out all the loose coal Mon
day. The miners will receive their
time checks for labor already per-
formed this month, sometime this
week.
The men are inclined to think
that they will win a victory, at
least they think the prospects for
a ready settlement are good and
that work will be resumed much
sooner than was expected.
District President John Gehr
and District Organizer William
Howells, accompanied by num-
Der of miners, both American and
foreign, have gone to the southern
fields with view to bringing out
the miners who are at present
working During their stay they
will visit the mining camps of
Walsenburg, Pictou, Sopris, Engle
Starkville, Gray Greek and New
Rouse.
1t is the hope of the striking
miners of Fremont county that
this committee will be successful
in their venture and bring out the
entire body of southern miners
and make the lockout complete.
At present there are over 1000
striking miners in the state and
when the miners of the southern
district are out, it will increase the
nun ber more than 1000
According to reports received at
Rock vale, the Colorado Fuel &
Iron company will probably accede
to the wishes of its employees just
as soon as it sees that general
lockout is effected
The report that the company
will take out the mules, pull the
fires and close down the mine, is
not swallowed by the miners, and
they think that it is only bluff
made by the company in order to
frighten the men in going back TO
work.

EXTRADITION OF ANARCHISTS.
Pan-American Conference Commit

tees REPORT on 'fhat SUBJECT.
Mexico City, Dec. 25-The commit.
tee on extradition and suppression of
anarchy has presented it's report. 1t
recommends that the American repub-
lies sign a general treaty of extradi-
ton, the proposed terms of which diff.
fer little from those Of the extradition
treaty now in force between the Unit
ed States and Mexico.
The committee says that 1t expert
enced difficulty in making special pro.
vision against anarchy and anarchists,
owing to the necessity of respecting
the liberty Of belief and to the fact
that the crimes of anarchists come un-
der the ordinary classification of penal
codes and are sufficient to justify ex
tradition without the need Of special
provisions. AS to, extradition the re.
port provides:
ARTICLE 13.-The contracting parties
agree to provide in their respective leg
islatiOn for the punishment of the
propagation Of anarchy. The extradi-
ton Of any individual who may have
propagated anarchy may be in demand
from the date on which said propaga
ton becomes punishable by the nation
making the request. In such cases it
shall be granted, although the individ-
ual whose extradtion be demanded
may be liable to penalty Of imprison-
ment of less than two years"
