MINERS STRONGLY URGED
TO ACCEPT ULTIMATUM
OF THE MINE OPERATORS

CONCLUDED FROM FIRST PAGE)
secure these things and many other rights
and privileges which we did not formerly
possess, in an attempt to maintain rate
of 3 cents and cents per ton greater than
we can secure by peaceable agreements.
This is all we can hope TO gain by strike,
and the possibilities of loss are so much out
of proportion to the amount that can be
won by a suspension we earnestly urge
you TO vote in favor of accepting the ulti-
matum of the operators rather than enter
into strike at this time.
IN POSITION TO SEE.
by your votes you have placed us in
positions where we have an opportunity of
seeing the entire field You have given us
opportunities of observing the situation.
that, in the very nature of things, you
cannot possibly be possessed of, and we
say to you in the light of that greater ex-
perience and wider observation which you
have enabled us to obtain, that the present
and future welfare Of our organization
and its members requires that the ult-
matum of the operators should be accepted.
Two years of peace will enable us TO give
more attention to the unOrganized and
partly organized fields than ever before,
protecting their interests and improving
their conditions so that they will not be
much of a menace to US in the future
as they have been in the past II will
avoid the hardShips and suffering that al
ways come with strikes 1t will strengthen
us with the public because il will demon
strate that a trade union can, when the
occasion arises, gracefully accept a reduc-
ton we'll as strenuously insist upon
advance, and il will leave us with an or
ganization strengthened by its conserv-
atism, ready to take advantage of any inn
provement in the future of the coal trade,
to still further better the conditions OF
the mine workers. The operators and the
miners are not the only persons who are
vitality interested in our failure TO reach
an agreement Millions of people who have
no voice in our negotiations would be COM
PEELED to suffer because of our quarrel
with our employers. When any great prin-
ciple is at stake the question of wide
difference in the standard of living is in
volved. we may we'll ask them TO suffer in
patience until the battle is over, but when
the difference between us is so small we
cannot afford to infiict upon the public.
OF which we are an important part. all the
discomfort and loss tnaJ a long strike
would entail Under sucn circumstances
we could not expect to have public SYM
pathy with we had il in the anthra-
cite strike. That body of men has never
yet been organized which can long resist
a thoroughly aroused. well-organzed and
well-directed public opinion.
These are some of the reasons why we
believe the ultimatum of the operators
should be accepted, and we sincerely hope
that the members of our organization will
cast their votes in favor of two years of
peace instead of an indefinite period of
industrial war"

STIRRING APPEAL MADE
BY BOSTON EVANGELIST
DR.. James NJ. Gray Begins Series
of Meetings at First
Presbyterian.
CLIFTON POWERS SINGS

''Who are the real saints and how we
can become like Them" was the Idea
brought out last night by DR.. James Nj.
Gray, the Boston evangelist, VINO began a
series of meetings at the First Presbyterian
Church. 1.-The letter of Paul TO the Ephe-
slams, the deepest and most profound mes
sage ever given to man, which begins, TO
the saints at Ephesus.' makes us stop and
think who Paul meant. Saints at Pphesus?
There was nobody there but plain, pious
men, who believed implicitly in God and
His goodness, and who gave their lives 10
His keeping. There we have ito His
keeping Such a man God calls a saint
because he has sanctified himself. To most
of us this sheds a new meaning on the
word saint for usually we apply the term
in connection with our sainted mother
our sainted pastor and like phrases
meaning some one who was holy on earth.
but who is now with Jesus
There are a large number of living
saints Look about you. The world is full
of men who have sanctified their lives. Let
me show you what L mean by saint. II
/ should take this dollar bill and lay IL
aside for Gods keeping after making Ii IN
trinScally clean IL would he a saint sup
posing, of course, it had human soul.
selves from the uncleanliness of this world
and make ourselves Gods servants. There
is way to accomplish this. namely, by
reading and believing the word of the Son
of God If we attain this end we have Sc
cured the richest ore from the mine of
Gods truth.
Let this series of meetings we are to
give be as successful as those in Pittsburg,
where thousands focked together and be-
came true witnesses TO Him who shall de-
liver souls. Let the streets of Indianapolis
be thronged those of Pittsburg with
people journeying TO the house of God to
feed on His word. Then the cause of Christ
will prosper, and the ultimate object of our
work, namely, the reaching out 10 bring
all disbelievers to Christ, will be attained.
Imprint this great message of Gods on our
hearts, and voice il from the depths of our
soul: Give me no rest till l create Jeru-
salem joyful and my people joy.
The meetings will continue until the last
of the month, and next week will be held
day except Saturdays.
Mr.. Clifton Powers, who is leading the
singing, was with DIR. Gray In Pittsburg
and has been singing in revival services
since the first of the year with marked sue
cess.
He possesses very emotional tenor voice
and has attracted wide attention. He was
educated in Paris and before taking up
evangelistic singing a church, oratorio
and concert singer in New York He con-
ducts the song service which precedeS each
of DR.. Gray's services.

CALM OF THE LORDS is
VERY HARSHLY BROKEN
Earl Rosebery Resents Balfour's
Use of the Word "Calumny'
in Recent Debate.
TRADE BY EX-PREMIER

LONDON, March 10.-An extraordinary
scene disturbed the customary decorum of
the House of Lords this evening.
In recent debate in the House of Com
mons Premier Balfour had used the word
'calumny'' in allusion to some statement
made by Lord Rosebery in the fiscal contro-
versy. When the House of Lords met to-
day Lord Rosebery asked Lord Lansdowne.
the foreign secretary. what justification ex-
listed for the premier's use of such a word.
Lord Lansdowne explained the circum-
stances, which concerned the alleged pres
entation of two documents by Premier Bal
four TO the Cabinet on the fiscal question
and the subsequent withdrawal of them.
He admitted the premier had used the
word in the heat of debate He said he
thought the circumstances justified some
warmth on the part of the premier. but
that he had consulted with Mr.. Balfour.
who told him that he did not desire to i'm
pute 10 Lord Rosebery deliberate attempt
to misrepreSent him.
After Lord Lansdowne had finished Lord
Rosebery again rose, and, declaring the ex-
PLANTATION had not been satisfactory he
fiercely attacked the premier, whom he ac-
cuSed of being too thin-Skinned, adding:
People who live in glass houses should not
throw stones. 1t is all very we'll to defend
such language by saying il was due to the
way If a man cannot curb his tongue
better than that he is unfit TO be the first
lord of the treasury.
Il do not personally care farthing what
language Premier Balfcur uses about me,
and l brought the matter before the house
only to point out that there are decencies
of debate that should be used even by those
who occupy the highest positions"
AS Lord Rosebery finished this TRADE and
sat down a painful silence ensued and the
lords looked at each other uncomfortably.
After long pause Earl Spencer, the Lib
eral leader. rose and said he thought Lord
Rosebery had not been fairly used. After
another awkward silence Lord Chancellor
Halsbury asked whether Lord Rosebery had
any motion TO make. Lord ROsebery then
moved an adjournment of the house an al
most unparalleled motion in the House of
Lords, but he did not press the motion to
a division and the subject dropped.
