OLD-FASHIONED ENTHUSIAST.

Political Campaigns.
Detroit Free Press.

Detroit Free Press.
People nowadays don't take the same
interest in politics that they used to-" said
an interesting elderly lady--'that is, while
public interest IT. the welfare of the nation
is as great, family sympathy is not as
demonstrative. In times of general politi-
cal rejoicing in old times, every man,
woman and child in every household took
an active and enthusiastic interest Child
rem, perhaps, were animated by their de-
light in the illumination of hotlses which
was striking feature of old-time politics.
After a political victory, an old-fash-
Toned torchliSht procession was got up;
and every house on the line of march was
expected to be Illuminated by candles
lighted behind every pane of glass. The
well-to-do had a whole candle at each
pane; but half candle and sometimes
even a quarter had to suffice for the palmer
people. Even these bits of candles were
frugally extinguished after the procession
had passed. Little three-cornered tin cam
dlesticks were stuck into the woodwork
under each pane of glass; and windows
in those days often had twelve panes of
glass in each sash it was no small under
taking to get ready for an illumination. The
whole family took a hand in affixng the
candlesticks and candles and at night one
person was detailed to each room to light
the candles when the small boy stationed
at the gate or front door announced that
the torchlight parade was in sight. Some
times the candles burned crookedly and
fell against the window. cracking the glass
Another feature of old-time politics was
the existence of broadcast political sympa-
thy. People out " est would illuminate for
victories in the East, and vice versa In
the '30's we illuminated for big Wing VIC
tory in New York. Our house was not fin
ished in the third story, and 1 recall my
father climbing on the bare rafters to place
candles at two very large windows in the
gables-thirty-two panes of glass in each
window. They made a fine sight, glittering
high up under the caves, as the shouting
torch bearers went by"

sure and that is considerable progress is
being made toward an end of the struggle
No one here knows the exact nature or
the proposition Mr. Mitchell brings back
with him from the national capital, and IL
is probable no one will know ii except the
three district presidents and National Sec
leader lays il before the three boards. In
his public statement of last night the strike
leader said nothing would be done until he
was in possession of the full meaning OF the
operators proposed arbitration plan, and 1t
is likely he received the Presidents inter-
probation to-day. 1t is understood that at
least a majority of the board members are
opposed to the plan, but II the President
gave Mr.. Mitchell Interpretation of the
proposal there is a likelihood that con-
yention will be called 10 consider il. A
great majority of the rank and file are still
opposed, like most of their board members,
to accepting the operators proposition as
they now understand 1t.
The joint conference tomorrow will be
made up of thirty-seven persons. Those
present will be Mr.. Mitchell, National Sec
retary-treasurer w b. Wilson, who arrived
here to-day, the three anthracite members
of the national executive board, the pres-
dent, vice president, secretary and treas
urer of each district, the seven board men,
bers from each of the upper and lower dis
tricts and the six board members of the
middle district.
The general strike situation is unchanged,
few additional men being recruited by the
coal companies. The soldiers passed a quiet
day.

Miners VIII Do as Their President
Advises, but Hope Strike VIII End.

SCRANTON. Pa, Oct. 15.-The miners
who would discuss the arbitration at all
to-day were generally averse to its accept
ance but. as in all other things, satisfied
to do whatever President Mitchell thought
best. There was n strong hope prevalent
among the people at large that President
Roosevelt would show Mitchell that de-
spite the limitations regarding the selec-
ton of the arbitration commission, fair,
just and impartial tribunal could be select
ed. and that Mitchell would be induced to
favor the acceptance of the proposition by
an assurance from President Roosevelt that
he would see to it that the miners inter-
ests would .be cared for in the selecting of
the commission. When the word came
early this evening that Mitchell had called
a meeting of the district boards for to-mor-
row morning, this hope grew into firm be-
lief that President Roosevelt had succeed
ed and that tomorrow would see some
thing from the strikers side that would
indicate close approach Of the end of the
conflict.
There is no denying that a quiet feeling
exists among good proportion of the
strikers favorable to acceptance of the
proposition, even though ii is not all that
the United Mine Workers would have it to
be. AS one miner put it: We've been ask
ing for arbitration. Now we've got it.
There may be some few flaws to the prop
osition, but we can't expect to get every
thing we want"
Secretary John T. Dempsey, of the First
district executive board, said: at do not
consider the proposition a fair one but
won't say it is not going to be accepted.
1t seems to me the miners should have
some say as to who shall act as arbitrator
just as we'll as the operators"
About the same as yesterday" sums up
the answers to inquiries regarding the sit
uation made at the coal companies Offices
AS was to be expected. the possibility of
speedy settlement deferred men from re-
turning to work, If any were inclined, and
also had a suppressing effect on lawless-
ness. Nothing along these lines worthy of
note was reported from any quarter. At
the Delaware, Lackawanna x Western
Company's office it was given out that the
production for yesterday was 1880 TONS
and the Erie claimed output of 500
This is an increase of about 1000 tons in
each case over what the output was ac-
credited to be at the beginning of the week
The list of places in operation had one
new addition to-day, work being resumed
at the Green Ridge colliery of the Green
Ridge Coal Company. on North Washing
ton avenue.

thence TO the quarters where the President
and Secretary Root were in conference.
A good deal of mystery seemed to attend
the interviews that Messrs. Wright and
Sargent had with other persons prior to
returning 10 the White House just before
midnight. When they left the temporary
White House around o'clock they were
driven down to Pennsylvania avenue and
Jefferson place, where the driver was In
structed to wait for a third party whose
name was not given. The cab waited some
time and the two returned to the White
House only TO go oEce more TO the former
stopping place, where the third person was
picked up. The three soon entered into an
earnest conversation, the cab meanwhile
proceeding leisurely along obscure streets.
When it returned to Pennsylvania avenue
the third member of the party alighted
and Messrs Wright and Sargent went to
the Treasury Department. They remained
there some time and on returning to the
White House made a report to the Presi-
dent as to the views of the operators on
MFR. MitcheIFs objections and proposition.
The first sign of a breakup of the con-
ference was at f2:S a. m, when Secretary
Cortelyou came from the conference room
and announced to the waiting newspaper
men that an official statement of the strike
situation would be made public in about
half an hour. Shortly after o'clock Sec
rotary Root came out laughing and happy,
and spread the glad tidings that a common
ground of agreement between the operators
and miners had been reached and that the
strike was practically ended. 1t was learned
a few moments later that the chief feature
of the agreement was the addition of g
sixth member TO the arbitration commits
sion, the surmise following as a matter
of course that the additional member would
be more particularly representative Of
labor. 1t was said at the same time that
now an agreement had been arrived at as to
the means OF determining the differences,
that the President would insist upon an
immediate resumption of work at the
mines, and that he had reason to expect
his advice would be followed very promptly.
Messrs. Bacon and Perkins. partners in
Mr.. J. Pierpont Morgan's banking firm,
were present at the final conference as
the representatives of the operators. When
the gathering broke up all present were in
high good humor and there was general
exchange of congratulations.

PHILADELPHIA, Oct. 15.-President
Mitchell, Of the United Mine Workers of
America, arrived here from Washington
shortly after o'clock tonight and depart
ed for wilkesbarre forty-five minutes later.
Mr.. Mitchell was uncommunicative to a
degree during his brief stop in this city, He
said at present there was no statement he
could make concerning the situation.
"Was your conference with President
Roosevelt satisfactory" he was asked.
"I would rather not say anything as to
that" he replied.
"Will you say whether you presented any
notifications to the operators proposition
to the PRESIDENT"
1T can't say
do you consider, since your conference
with the President, that the situation has
past week have had a tendency to clari-
fy it?''

Whom besides the President did you

Mr. Mitchell also declined to state the
object of the meeting of the executive
boards which has been called for to-mor-
row at Wilkesbarre. He was asked If he
would make n statement concerning his
conference with the President after he
reached Wilkesbarre. and he answered in
the negative. He said, also, that he did not
know whether he would have anything to
say tomorrow after the meeting of the ex-
ecutive boards.
