THE COAL STRIKE
STILL EFFECTIVE
Belief Grows That the Mine Owners
Win Comply With Demands OF
Men

WILKESBARRE, Pa. May 22-The
executive committee of the United
Mine Workers Union met again this
morning. but as to their action nothing
was given out.
President Mitchell confirmed the re-
port that the Michigan bituminous
district had consented to call for a ma
tional convention.
Disinterested talk on the proposition
to call out the engineers, firemen and
pumpmen leads to the belief that the
mine owners expect to comply with
the demands of the union.

WASHINGTON. May 90, The possi-
bility of keeping living rooms at

practically an end to summer suffering
form heat, is held out by Prof. Willis
l.. Moore. Chief of the Weather Bu-
reau. who has flied application for
patent on what he calls a gravity air
cooling. drying and purifying machine.
The new apparatus is the result OF sew
eral years of study and experiment.
Prof Moore believes the invention to

value The cost OF the macaihe will
be so small that IL will be within the
reach of nearly all, SO that the horrors

MEMPHIS, Tenn. May 22.-In a
suit in the Chancery Court now in pro-
gress in jackson, Miss. a most re-

which outdoes fiction. and which. in
its deeply pathetic details, appeals with

A London paper states that at re-
cent great meeting Of South African
women held at the Paarl the following
resolutions were unanimously carried:
s'This meeting Of South African wo-
men desires to enter Its solemn protest
against the imprisonment and deport-
ation of unprotected women and chill
dren, without investigation and in de-
fance of all the laws and usages of
modern warfare. This meeting earn
estly protests against the burning,
plunder, and destruction of private
property, whereby women and chill
dren are rendered destitute and home
less, and claims that this is in CONTRA
vcntion of the resolutions of the peace
conference at the Hague, resolutions
which, England supported" and to
which she subscribed.'
The meeting decided to request Mrs.
Olive Schreiner to incorporate the tale
Of the sufferings Of the women and
children in a book, to be dedicated to
the sympathy of thespowers Of Europe
or to Queen Wilhelmina Of the Meth
erlands.

The editor Of the Record will sim.
ply state that he is nots disposed to
"fiop" on any question. He would not
for All the Offices in the county change
his politics in an hour and deny
his political principles of few hours
previous. Neither will he eyer make
q written contract with . publisher
who should buy him out that he would
stay ''out" for q term of years, and
then violate bis solemn agreement.
The editor Of the Record has NOT
changed his views enc iota in regard
to enforcement Of the prohibition
law. We believe there is no more rea-
SOP why that law should be rigidly
enforced and expenses made, in the
face of a strongly prevailing adverse
sentiment, than that a score Of other
dormant laws ON our statute books
should be enforced where a large ma
jority of the people do not want them.
Neither does the Record sympathize
with any Of the prosecutions that
have been made along the above line.
The Record would much prefer IL
cense system. But We are and always
have been willing to grant the same
honesty Of motives K, those who dis
agree with us, provided they do not
stoop to Misrepresentation and libel.
However, there are certain laws-laws
that the, very existence OF society de-
pends upon-regarding which there is
no question-and one is that the prop
erty rights Of every citizen shall he
respected. It makes no difference
What q mans profession may be, he
should and will be held in public es-
teem according to his actions and his
honesty Of purpose. No; the editor
of the Record is no s'flopper." No
man has ever had any trouble in as
certaining what his views are on any
question unpublic interest. And, in
matters Of honesty, fair dealing, and
attention to his duties when he was a
public officer, he is perfectly willing
to submit to comparison with the
gentleman whose paper seems to be
spelling for q fight, and its consequent
advertising ethlng that we shall
in pearly every instance refuse to
assist him In ccOmplishing.
