Of the statement have been furnished to
the operators. who will reply in three or
four days. The miners statement is as

than IS paid In other occupations, requiring
special training.
IS. The average annual earnings in the

anthracite fields are much less than the

curing skill and training.
20. The rate OF wages In the anthracite
coal fields is insufficient to compensate tho
mine workers in view OF the dangerous
character Of the occupation in relation to
accidents. the liability to serious and per-
manent disease, the high death rate and
the short grade Of life incident to this
employment.
70 The annual earnings OF the mine
workers are insufficient 10 maintain the
American standard Of living.
-. Tho increased cost Of living has made
1t impossible to maintain a fair standard of
life upon the basis Of present wages and
has not only prevented the mine workers
from securing any benefit from increased
prosperity, but has made their condition
poorer on account of 1t.
IS. The wages Of the anthracite mine
workers are so low that their children are
prematurely forced into the breakers and
mills instead Of being supported and edu-
Gated upon the earnings Of their parents.
-. Wages are below the fair and Just
earnings OF mine workers in this Industry

The second demand is still similar TO

RnAsoNs ZOE M pEMAND.

I'm support of this demand We submit
the Following reasons
Il The anthracite mine workers should
not be compelled to make or sign In
dlvidual agreements, but should have the
right to form such organization and choose
such agents and officers as they desire to
act collectively instead OF individually
when they deem that their best interests
arc subserved thereby.
Agreements between employers and EN-
ployes through workingmen's organization
are the ordinary methods of regulating
wages and hours In the hituminous ana
other large industries and are beneficial,
successful and In keeping with the spirit
of the times.
-. Unions OF workingmen tend TO the
better discipline OF the men, To the i'm
provement of tneir physical, moral ana
mental condition and to the preservation
of friendly relations between employer and
employe.
a. Experience shows that the trade
agreement IS the only effective method ny
which It is possible to regulate questions
arising between employers and employees in
large Industrial workings, and that trade
agreement is the only proper way to estah
fish relations between employers ana en-
pIoyes. Respectfully submitted,
John Mitchell,
Representative of the Anthracite Work

but since then q more modern building

Elaborate preparations had been
made for the exercises, and pole se-
cured on which the flag was to be
hoisted. Everything went along
smoothly until the day before the event
was to take place, when one of the trus-
tees of the school became indignant
because the exercises were not to be
lust as he desired. The director de-
cided that if things did not go his way
he would spoil an Of the plans.
On the day the flag was to be raised

school before anyone i'm the nieghbor-
