ment designed to commemorate the

up a few days ago. Naval Constructor
William J. Baxter. head of the depart
ment of construction and repair at the
CharlestOwn navy yard, first conceived
the idea of these ornaments, and at
once set about obtaining the consent
of the navy department to put them
on. After this had been accomplished
he had the designs made. following his
own ideas.
Some of the bronze used in casting
the two pieces was taken from the
Olympia. and this gives added value
to them. The stem ornament is the
more elaborate A winged Victory

which is about to launch into the air

Good hEinipg Legislation.

state Mine Inspector Edwin Keegan
has added another chapter to his an
nuaI report, now in press, lauding the
beneficent legislation secured for
miners at the last legislative session.
The change in the method of choosing
the mining commissioner calls forth the
observation that when the governor APP
pointed him, with the prediction Of
getting the wrong man, the appoint
ment held for two years just the same.
Now the miners choose their own sec
rotary and if they happen to choose the
wrong man, his tenure is at the pleas
ure of the association.

HAVE RETURNED
Big Mass Meeting of Miners Held
at RockvaIe Last Night
UNION is STEADILY GROWING

District President Gehr and
District Organizer Howells re-
turned yesterday from the south
ern coal fields where they had been
perfecting a stronger organization
of the United Mine Workers of
America and to prevail upon the
miners employed by the Colorado
Fuel & Iron company to cease
work and aid the striking miners
to gain their ends
AS result of their return a
well attended mass meeting of
union miners was held at Rock
vale last night and the gentlemen
handed in their report which was
very satisfactory At this time
there are 400 men on strike at the
Sopris mine, they being called out
Monday. There are yet twenty
one mines in operation in the
southern fields. In Las Aninas
county there are between 1900
and 5000 men who are not idle,
but probably will come out within
the next two weeks.
Messrs Gehr and Howells are
inclined to think that the union
has nearly all arrangements per-
fected for declaring lockout in
the entire southern coal belt,
which may be called any day.
When approached as to how
long the strike might continue the
answer was: I'VE are about to
call on every man employed by the
Colorado Fuel q Iron company to
lay aside his In hors and when this
is done a complete lockout will be
effected and n strike will be on
that will not be called off for this
summer at least, and may continue
till next fall We have made ar
rangements with our men so that
there will be no starving or half
clad children and the United Mine
Workers union will show the COM
pany that we are a power and a
Stauucb one too
President John Mitchell is a,
Washington, d c., attending a
convention OF mechanics, but as
soon as he has finished his busi-
ness there be viii at once leave
for the Colorado coal fields and
while West will also visit the
Fremont fields. The general lock-
out may not be called until his ar
rival, which will be week or
probably ten days The miners
in this region are looking forward
to his arrival as they know that
what action he takes will be deci-
sive.

SQUAT QUESTION RAISED.
Regarding the Method Of Filing on
Unoeeupied Land.
[By Assoclated &c. l


Ell Reno, Okla, Aug. 7.-At the ex
piration Of sixty days from August 6
which should be October 4. all unoc
cupied lands subject to entry can be
fled upon under the general home
stead law. The question is. will a mar
be required to run from the border on
October S, or can he squat on an unoc
cupied claim before October 8 in orde,
to be on land the very instant the six
ty days expire? If more than ono
man should squat on the same claim
there would be trouble. Commission
er Richards is hazy on the subject.
The land Office officials have de
oided that the non-mineral affidavit
will not be required from those who
make filings. This ruling viii save
considerable trouble and annoyance
and probably perjury.
The trains south are crowded and
standing room is at a premium. El
Reno still presents a lively appear
ance, and the auction corner is crowd.

most any price by those who have al
