Editor independent: / see the call
is out for the Indiana conference all
right. The newspaper mel are now
taking quite an interest in our meet
iags and we are getting coed deal OF
advertising. I am sure your coming
to the conference would add much in
arousing our people. When | wrote
you last there seemed to be lack OF
cooperation, but I feel more enconr-
aged now. The interest which the rep
resentatives of the plutocratic papers
are taking indicate that the political
managers appreciate the possibilities
that lie in the populist revival.
A city election is pending and the
silver democrats are as rehellious as
the pops. The most vicious of the
Palmer and Buckner democrat are IN
control of the city organization. | be-
lieve that the knowledge that you
wouldtcome to the state conference on
the oath would add much to the at
Tendance. At any rate we will do the
lest that we can should you consent
to come. Politically everything is

Coal Trust Treason

The anthracite coal companies are
resisting the efforts of the United
States government to look into their
business. They have refused to give
information asked for by the interstate
commerce commission, and have been
supported in the refusal by one of the
lower federal courts. This case has
been carried up to the United States
supreme court and pending decision
there, the coal roads have refused to
fill in inquiry blanks sent to them by
the United States census office. They
seem to think they are engaged in a
purely private business. That was the
way they acted in relation to the
strike, and the way in which they are
irow acting. 1t will prove in the end
to be a public business. Springfield
