FULL POWER
FOR MITCHELL
National Strike to Be Left
in Presidents Hands.
Such Is the Prediction Made
Yesterday by a High OFF,
cial in the Union--Report
That Coxe's Will Resume.

The national convention Of the United
Mine Workers at indianapolis on July
II will give President Mitchell full
power to order strike in the manner
that he believes best in part or in whole,
according to President w. +. Williams,
of the Michigan miners. who went home
last night after a two days conference
with Mr.. Mitchell.
This important announcement shows
how carefully the plans of President
Mitchell have been laid, and how, in
stead of sweeping the country into a
great industrial crisis he is proceeding
slowly and will continue to do so, giving
the operators every opportunity to see
the ultimate outcome and to meet the
miners half way at any time.
President Williams said: "The soft
coal men will all stand by President
Mitchell, and If they have to break
agreements, will do so. IL it not good
to violate Il contract, but If it comes to
breaking a contract or the union the
contract will be broken first 7 believe
that the life or death of the union is in
volved in the present struggle"
The Ohio delegation, which arrived at
the county seat yesterday, is now max
ing an investigation of the conditions
in the anthracite region, and will visit
several of the large centres and then
return to Wilkes barre for conference
with President Mitchell. They went to
Scranton this morning.
Other members of the Michigan dele
CATION, as well as some of the men who
are here from Ohio, seem to be firmly
convinced that the action of the Indian
apolis convention will be shaped by
Mitchell alone on most conservative
lines. 1t is more than likely that
strike resolution will be adopted and
that the calling out of men will be CON
fled to those states in which the miners
are not bound by any agreements.
The Western men seem to think that
the convention will vote its confidence
in President Mitchell and leave the
calling out of the contract miners en-
tirely to bis discretion. Since Mitchell
has all along fought against general
strike it now seems certain that he will
not resort to a move of the kind indi-
Gated until actually forced by existing
conditions.

notorious fact that more property that greater val

Craddock who is putting in his time denouncing the

than the plant has been That is the view which

THESE THREE GREAT AMERICANS.

Every American should read the speech delivered
by President Roosevelt at the dinner the Harvard
alumni the other day-every American who has pa
toc regard for the welfare of his country, and who
believes standing by his government when it is right
also every small American who is willing to attack
faithful public for partisan advantage and who
looks beyond partisan gain in any governmental
act
In that speech President Roosevelt commended three
Of the connected with his administration who
been the target Of bitter partisan abuse and he did
nobIy and we'll He spoke especially Of the services
of General Leonard Wood Governor General Taft and
Secretary Of War Root. To the man who fitted Cuba
for Independent. selfgovernment he gave unstinted
praise. Leonard Wood, he said. had done the best
could; he had handled sixty millions of dollars, and
he had returned from Cuba poorer than when he
there But Wood entitled particular credit
he said, because he built that he could do
nothing else"

Liverpool going forward with enterprises in the
direction of socialism which would be considered quite
revolutionary and impossible in the United States.

so low that the income received does pay
interest on the actual cost of the buildings Flowers

windows in the Sums and the municipality sells ster-

Other things done which doubt could be enoined
in American courts by any taxpayer, and there is no
sign Of any tendency narrow the field of local gov
activity. Great Britain was never before so
much republic in vital matters and yet the in
stituton Of monarchy appears to have lost nothing in
popular favor in the past half century.
