STUPENDOUS
Plan Being Considered by Anthracite
Coal Miners.
Would Affect 400 900 Men, and Tie
UP Railroads, Factories, Etc.

Hazelton, Pa, May 16.-Tne anthra-
cite mine workers, in convention here
today, in order TO win their strike,
unanimously decided upon plan that if
carried into successful operation would
practically tie up the industries of the
country, and paralyze business through
out the United States. 1t IS their
desire that special national conven-
tion of the United Mine Workers Of
America be called rs soon as practic
able, for the purpose of endeavoring to
have all the bituminous mine workers,
both organized and unorganized, in
volved in the anthracite miners strug
gle. This announcement was officially
made at noon today by President John
Mitchell, in a statement giving the
result of the delegates in convention.
If special national convention is
called and the miners succeed in their
object, 1t would directly affect 449, 600
men who are employed in and about
the coal mines of the country. Coal
would soon become scarce, and this
would ultimately result in the tying up
of railroads and all sorts of industries
that use large quantities of the fuel.
1t is doubted by some interested persons
here who are closely watching develop
ments that such stupendous move
ment could be brought about, for the
reason that the business interests OF
the country would not stand idly by
and permit such plan to be put into
effect

Tired Eyes.

People speak about their eyes bel ny
tired meaning that the retina, or see
ing portion of the eye, is fatigued; but
such is not the case, as the retina
hardly ever gets tired. The fatlg ne
is in the inner and outer muscle at
tached to the eyeball and the muscles
of accommodation which surround the
lens of the eye. When a near object
is to be looked at this relaxes and al
lows the lens to thicKen, increasing its
retroactive power. The inner and out
er muscles are used in covering the eye
on the object to be looked at. 1t is in
the three muscles mentiond that the
fatigue is felt, and relief is secured
temporarily by closing the eyes or gaz.
ing at ar-distance objects. The usual
indication Of strain is redness Of the
rim of the eyelid, betokening con-
gested state of the inner surface, ac-
companied by some pain. Sometimes
this WEAKNESS indicates the need OF
glasses rightly adapted to the person,
and in other cases the virtue remedy is
to massage the eye and it's surroundings,
40 far as may be. with the hand in cold
water. Family Doctor.

The editor of The CommOner Is some
times asked why he does not suggest
some suitable candidate for president,
instead of pointing out objections tC
candidates named by the reOrganizers.
First, because he has no desire to pick
out candidates, or to influence the
choice of the party as between men
who believe in democratic principles
and can be trusted to carry them out
second, because between those who can
be trusted the question of availability
ought to be considered. and events
largely determine availability. The
convention is entitled to all the light
II can get on this subject. and it is
nearly two years before the delegates
will be chosen. There is no dearth of
competent and deserving men. One
hundred names could be suggested of
men qualified by experience and party
service for the high Office of president.
While each would have weak points
and strong points-for perfec' ion is
not to be expected-any one of them
would poll the party strength and re-
ceive the support of all who believe in
the doctrines set forth in the platform.
There are candidates galore, and they
are not confined to any one state or
location. To illustrate how ample is
the supply of presidential timber, look
at the state of Tennessee. She has two
senators-Bate and Carmack-bo of
them loyal and able democrats. and
both deserving of any honor within the
gift of the people While the senior
senator's age might prevent his max
ing an active campaign, he is not too
old to be a faithful champion of the |
peoples interests whether in the senate
or in the White house. !
Senator Carmack has earned his
rapid promotion by his extraordinary
ability, coupled with fearless and
steadfast adherence to the principles of
his party and forceful advocacy of
hose reforms which the masses de-
nand. He was pioneer in the fight
ior the restoration of bimetallism, and
was one of the first to raise his voice
against imperialism.
Then. there is Governor Mcmillan.
After long and illus trious service in
congress he was made governor of his
tate ana has since been reelected. He
las had more experience IN public life J
han Grant Hayes, Cleveland or Roose I
cit had when elevated to the presi-
ency, and more than Tilden or Han !
