Winter Threatens Alarming Con.
ditions.
President Roosevelt tried to bring the
Anthracite mine owners and the mine
workers together In some kind of com
promise by which the mines could be
worked and the public supplied with
coal for this winters use The Presl.
dents effort was failure; the mine
owners refusing to arbitrate or compro-
mise, only demanding that the Presi-
dent do his duty by sending Federal
soldiers TO the mines to p,otect their
properties and the men who were will
ing to work for them under present con-
ditions. The mine workers. through
their representatives. agreed to submit
the whole controversy to the President,
he to select said committee as he chose.
and they would abide the result. This
the mine owners refused to do. Tins
the whole attempt at compromise was
a failure.
The readers OF the Courier can hardly
comprehend the seriousness of the situ-
alton In this section soft coal is used
nearly altogether. but in the Eastern
States and cities anthracite coal is used
In the homes, in the factories. and for
all purposes, and the supply Is obtained
from the mines where the strike is in
progress. The sufferings at these
homes, losses to these factories, ETC..

hundreds of other things which are ab

centralizing power in the Federal Gov
eminent. and taking away individual
ownership, control and competition.
The Democracy that the Hickman
Courier has learned means a. little of
Government interference as possible
with the personal liberty of men and
with the business transaction between
man and man. Democracy believes in
law, In enough government to secure
TO every man his liberty. his right to

Washington, Sept. 1s.-so far only cne answer to the State Departments iden- tical note concerning the Roumanian Jews has come to hand.

 It Is presumed that the other nations addressed will return their acknowledge ment shortly. If they are all of the same mind as England it may be that q conference will be called of the repre- sentatives of the powers signatory of the treaty of Berlin with the purpose of bringing pressure to bear on Roumania to live up to her obligations under that treaty.
