NINETEENTH WEEK OF STRIKE
Both Sides Firm as Ever-The End
Not in Siuht,

Shenandoah, Pa, Sept. 15.-Today
the 10Th week of the coal strike
began. The reiteration by the
coal presidents last week that
no concessions would be made, and
the resolutions passed by nearly all
the local unions of the United Mine
Workers, renewing their allegiance to
their officers. and pledging themselves
TO continue the strike until conces.
sions are granted, show that neither
side to the controversy is weakening.
All sorts of rumors have been put
in circulation by the spokesmen of
the operators, as well as of the strik.
ers, both sides contending that the
conference early Saturday morning be-
tween Governor Stone and John
Mitchell and several of his lieutenants
has resulted to their advantage
From the operators comes the story
that the conference proved a failure,
in that the officials of the union were
led to believe that Governor Stone
was authorized to make a proposition
looking toward settlement which did
not materialize. The strikers. on the

Means Of Ending the Conflict-Both

Mitchell and District Presidents Duffy.
Fahey and Nichols, of the United
Mine Workers, for the purpose of dis
cussing means of settling the anthra-
cite coal strike. The conference was
held at the suggestion of the governor,
who has devised a plan by which he
hopes to effect a settlement between
the operators and miners without the
necessity of an extra session of the
legislature for the enactment of ar
bitration legislation.
The conference did not begin until
long after midnight owing to the late
hour at which Mitchell and his asso.
ciates arrived in Harrisburg from
Philadelphia. The governor originally
arranged for meeting today with
Mitchell, but the strike leader had
an important engagement at Wilkes
barre today that must be filled, and
he asked the governor to meet him last
night, and the executive most cheer
fully complied with his request.

cal prominence in Pennsylvania is

Among the Arabs Of Syria man
changes his name after the birth Of
Dis eldest son, assuming the name
which has been bestowed upon the
leir, with the prefix Abu. meaning
"rather off, Thus. If the son is called
Fudle Allah, Gods Bounty the ia
ther will be henceforth known as .Abu
Eudle Allah, Father of Gods Bounty"
an like manner the mother would be-
come known as En- Fudle Allah, Moth
er of Gods Bounty" This custom is
not merely one Of common speech. but
extends to all occasions and even to
VeEal documents. Still more strangely,
ever when man though married has

ely demands that he should be adj

1t has been customary in the
past to serve each town in its turn to
the different offices in the gift of the
people, and doubtless this custom
will follow this year. The town of
Glover has not had county Office for
twelve years and every town in the
south end of the county has been
served since that time, and the gene
raj feeling is that this town is entitled
to recognition in the coming conven-
tion. The name of William F. Clark
has been sfavorably mentioned in
connection with assistant Judge from
the south end.
Mr.. Clark is well qualified for the
position. He,has had wide expert
ence as trial justice and it has been
customary to-: choose the assistant
judges from this line. Mr.. Clark was
one of the leading members of the
legislature of '96, introducing and
managing some of the important bills,
and in the special session of '9S he
introduced and had charge of the bill
making provision for the Spanish
war. He has also held nearly all the
town offices acceptably to his towns
men. Mr.. CLARK nearly completed a
full college preparatory and seminary
course, when i'll health compelled
him to abandon his desire for a col
lege education.
We feel that the qualifications of
the candidate and the claims of the
town for county officer warrants
the support, of the voters of the
county.
VOTER
Orleans County monitor. [volume] (Barton, Vt.) 1872-1953, 1902-06-16

According to the latest reports
Proctor has 1872 delegates, Clement
214 and Mccullough 321 with eight
more to be elected. The winner in
the contest must receive 1863 votes
and Mccullough, who is in the lead,
will lack about forty votes of this. 1t
is needless to say that these forty
votes will come very hard. Clement
has succeeded in securing such fol-
lowing that he will not be likely to
allow Mccullough the coveted major
ity unless he can have the privilege
of debating as to the republican plat
form. The Proctor men have been
elected on principle and are sure to
stand firm to the last. The bitter at
tacks which have been made on Proc
tor by the supporters of Mccullough
and the methods which have been
employed against him have brought
about a sentiment which will not help
Mccullough in the convention but
has rather tended to bring the Proctor
men more closely together with the
determination to stand firmly by the
principle on which they have carried
out their campaign. With this con-
dition it is fair to predict that if
Nc Cullough wins the nomination
Clement will write the platform. If
he is not given this privilege and the
Proctor delegates stand firm, as they
undoubtedly will, there is chance
that it may be found necessary to
nominate an entirely new man and
names are already being brought be-
fore the people. At any rate while
Mccullough is in the lead he is not
nominated by any means.

In the best interests of the taxpay-
ers it is pleasing to note that the can
didacy of Horace F. Graham for state
auditor is making decided progress.
Mr.. Graham has conducted his can

keeping it free from improbable and
impossible claims, which is distinct
and pleasing contrast to the Orange
