The ship subsidy steal will not be

The ship subsidy steal will not be
acted on by the lower house of congress
at its present session, because the belief
is positive that in case Of the passage of
the measure the congressional elections
this fall will go largely democratic. So
that obstacle is out of the way. But if
the election results in retaining repub
,lican majority in the house then at the
next session congress will pass the steal.
The question arises is the obstacle
really out of the way? We say not
much. Clinton Age.

willing to Arbitrate,

address to the public. 1t is partly a

operators declining to accede. to the
demands of the union or to agree to ar
filtration. $1,000
The address says that every posi-
bic means. was resorted to in the eff
fort to prevent the strike; claims that
ilie cost of living has increased to the
point where the miner was compelled
to ask higher wages; denies the ale
cations of the operators that the pro-
ductive capacity of the mine workers
has fallen off, but, on the other hand,
has increased; quotes official figures to
'substantiate the contention that the
employees can pay higher wages with
out increasing the cost of. coal to the
consumer; asserts that the coal carry
ing railroads which control about So
per cent of the mines absorb the prof
its of their coal companies by charging
eXorbitant freight rates; declares the
weighing system unjust and rencws
