The only kind of consump-
ton to fear is "neglected
consumption"
People are learning that con-
sumption is a durable disease.
It is neglected consumption
that is SO often incurable.
At the faintest suspicion Of
consumption get a bottle Of
SCOTS Emulsion and begin
regular doses.
The use of SCOTS Emulsion
at once, has, in thousands of
cases, turned the balance in
favor of health.
Neglected consumption does
not exist where SCOTS Emul-
sion is.
Prompt use of SCOTS Emul-
sion checks the disease while it
can be checked.

YIcronY On ruE rnEss-

The question before the convention when
Il adjourned for the day was on the adop.
tlou Of the resolution embodied IN Prosl
dent Mitchell's opening speech, to call OF
the strike and leave all questions to- the
presidents commission. The surprise OF the
convention was the decision to admit news
paper men to all the sessions, open or OK
ecutiye, when even union miners who were
eagerly waiting by the hundred out on the
street, could not get into the theater.
Twice the newspaper men won victory
by big majorltics. First, when petition
from them, asking to be allowed to re-
main, a motion TO grant the request car
ried, and later, when a motion was made
to reconsider the first vote to admit The
pleas which won were that the reporters
represented the people, that public opinion
had helped the strikers and that the best
way TO sc; an accurate report OF this
convention of immediate and National i'm
portance was 70 let the press representa-.
tiyes stay on the stage. Even the sngges.

TO the correspondents was turned down by

SHOULD BE NO CONFLICT.


Between the combination OF capital on
the one hand and the organization Of labor
on the other, there should be and need
DO no irrcconcllable conflict; each IL
factor In the economic development of our
civilization and the application OF busl-
ness judgment and plain common-sense by
each would enable them 20 work IN har.
mony. While the Interests OF labor and
capital are not 10y any means identical,
they are. nevertheless, reciprocal; each is
more or less dependent upon the other and
under our form OF government one can
not prosper without the other. That this
fundamental principle would be recognized
by the tribunal selected by the president
Of the United States l have no reason to
doubt
.'The grave question which you have been
called upon 10 consider today demands that
IL must receive your most careful thought.
Personally / should have preferred an ad-
justment Of the difficulties existing In the

thracite mine owners and without the IN.
Prevention Of agencies not directly Involved,
but recognized the fact that the relations
between ourselves and the operators have
become SO strained as to render direct nego-
lions at this time impossible, II the con
sequences Of this strike affected only the
Interests OF the operators and mine workers
there would be less reason for the interyen-
tion OF a third party, but the fact that a
coal famine was upon the people OF East
ern and seaboard states and threatened
70 become a National calamity justified the
action Of the chief executive Of our Ma
tIon in hts earnest effort to bring about an
early resumption OF mining.
