L officials oc the miners union to
declare another strike if within
two weeks the anthracite employing
interests 10 not meet the miners in
a loint conference, the preamble sets
forth the object of the desired con-
ference. II is ITO mutually agree on

ing their intention To take up with
their own men the cons liberation OF
presented grievances.
The authors of the llazleton rrsO,u-
tiUus say: we believe that we are
entitled to much more consideration
than we receive, and are fully entitled
TO meet with those who employ us and
are our equals under the law and Con-
stitution of our country, and with
them discuss and decide matters of
mutual interest" The rcply of the
operators, in effect, is: I'VE are ready
at all times to discuss with our en-
rloycs and decide matters of mutual
n!tcrcst; but We as a body will not
treat with the organization known as
the United Mine Workers of America"

time worked. They are enjoying not
only the credit but also the substance
of last fairs victory, and this sub
stance is assured by the offer of the
operators for an entire year more,
whether the union is recognized en-
plicitly by the operators or not Is
the unWilliu"ncss Of the operators to

ground for throwing these substantial

Of because of its inability to control

Mr. llNolAL point III the
opinion Of the local court
"A urholdiug the constitutions
ality of the ripper" act, is
the fact that the subject of legislation
i'm that act is purely municipal. The
court was not sitting in judgment upon
the cNprdicnoy Of the measure. but
upon the question Of it's conflict with
constitutional restrictions. The Su-
promc court having already held in
effect that the municipality is merely
the agent of the state and that the
Office at mayor is not a constitutional
oNiCc; IN other words that it is purely
creation Of statutory legislation, and,
as such always amcnable to it's crea-
tor, the legislative power there was no
alternative course open to the lower
tribunal than to bow the opponents of
the ripper out of court. That the
higher tribunal can be induced, at this
late day, To reverse itself is possible
but Improbable. In the meantime the
public VIII do well to bear IN mind
these closing words in Judge Arch
bald's luminous opinion:
'sfhis bill may he good or bad: time
alone viii demonstrate, and none of us
can anticipate It's judgment. The OBJ
scrvations which we have been called
10 make have been addressed to it's
legal validity only; does it offend
against the constitution in the manner
claimed by its assailants? That Is
all we have to pass upon. 1t will not
do to charge in vague and general
terms. that it violates the spirit of
that instrument or that it infringes on
The prevailing principles of popular
gokfrnment. The constitution as it is
WIttten is the only gauge by which
It ian be tested, and the exact particu-
lars in which it impinges upon II must
be pointed out. If it stands this test,
II Is valid, and if it does not it is not
r We have but to add that
1T Is our unanimous judgment that the
LAW is constitutional"

Judge Titus, for the defense, con-
Quoted the examination Of Lang. The
latter was excused on the ground that
he had an interest In corporation
owning property, but had none In his
own right.
An error In the panel list was found
when Otto o. HageY, Buffalo music
dealer, was called for examination.
AIr. Owto b. Hager of Grand Island
presented himself instead, and he was
excused.
The next man called was Walter T..
Everett, local blacksmith. He was
satisfactory to both sides and so was
accepted as the seventh juror just as
the bells struck for noon.
After the acceptance of this juror
Judge Lewis addressed the court and
stated that inasmuch as both he and
his colleagues were aged men and
owing to the suddenness Of their con-
nection with the case and the fact that
they had little time for preparation, he
desired the sessions of the court to be
as short as possible. He believed the
progress of the case would In no way
be hindered or delayed by short hours.
He suggested that court convene at ~
a. N. and adjourn at 4 p. m. and that
there be an LnternisSion from IL noon
, until p. III.
Judge White expressed himself MS
being agreeable to this arrangement
He therefore made the hours OF the
court to conform with Mr.. Lewis re
quest.

was called to the stand at noon. After
