MEMBERS OF RELIEF PARTY.
Several Killed and Forty Overcome in
Pennsylvania Mines.

Harrisburg, Pa, May 26-All but one of
the 10 men killed and all of the 40 over,
of the Summit branch coliery of the Sus-
quehanna Coal Co at Williamstown, yes
terday. were members of a relief party.
A list follows:
M. M. Golden, local superintendent, aged
3d. survived by widow and seven chill
dren
John Kenney, miner, married, three chill
dren
Enoch Morgan miner, IS. five children.
Joseph Punch, laborer. a.
George Radle. SO, chief machinist.
Aaron Koppenhavcr, repairman.
Peter Koppenhaver. repairman.
Albert Nau. engineer, 1S single.
Bert James. miner, single.
Henry Frederick, miner.
EnOch Morgan was the first man killed.
The rest of the victims were members
of the rescuinS party which at one time
timation of the presence of an cXtraor-
binary quantity of sulphurous gas in the
mine was first received by miners who
extends from the Bear valley to the Viii
liams valley side of the mountain.
Shortly afterwards coal train came
insensible from the gas and hurried them
to the Williams valley side. A relief
train loaded with rescuers and members
of the night shift was hurrietlly made
up and sent to the mine to rescue the
others.
Before the train had travelled any great
distance the rcscuerS started to explore
the mine and in short while these men
were lettering and falling to the ground
fatally stricken or seriously overcome.
The lights which the miners carried were
of little good because of the large
amount of gas; and in the dcath-reeking
atmosphere and with practically no light.
a number of men partly overcome fell
into n stream of water which flows along
the track. and what the gas left undone
drowning completed.
Despite the immense odds against which
ma f cd hn irrS-f
sible victims and the bodies of the dead
were placed on the. relief train and rush
ell to the mouth of the tunnel.
1t is believed that the gas accumulated
because of the excessive heat on the sur
face and the large number of trains
which went through the mine.

GOVERNOR cuMM1Ns' POINTER
Hutchinson independent Times.


In his Lincoln Day address at Minneap-
oils Governor Cummins of Iowa made a
point that the opponents Of Governor Van
SAINT would do well to remember. And
that was that he was the man that started
the movement to curb the power Of the
great combines in an active and practical
manner In the courts of the land. The
governors opponents are apt to make light
.of the Importance of the move
ment he started to test the
power of the law in curbing the
encroachment of the great railroad and
other combines. They assert that it was
merely political move and that it was
done simply for personal advancement. It
actuated the movement. The public in
general cares little for this. What it does
care for is the fact that the movement
was started and that an effort is being
made on the part of the authorities to en-
! force the existing laws against the great
corporations which are inclined to pay
little attention to them when they stand
lin the way of grasping wealth. While the
administration at Washington was at work
getting things into shape to enforce the
| laws against combines in those instances
where the latter were encroaching upon
the rights of the, people. the movement
| which Governor Van SAINT inaugurated
furnished an opportunity for immediate
action, which the president was not slow
! to avail himself of. So it can be seen
4 that President Roosevelt and Attorney
| General Knox were not inclined to look
Lightly upon the action of Minnesota
governor, even tho some of his opponents
| here are Of the idea that it amounted tt
little and was simply move for selfish
political effect.

give proof, or disproof Of this story,
but certainly it was believed by the
American people during the civil war

them since. Certain it is that the

BAD MANNERS AND POOR POLITICS

The democratic Mankato Review, speak
ing of the editorial association banquet in
Minneapolis, says
while we question the prOpriety Of eX-
tending invitations to aspirants for public
office, however distinguished or prominent
they may be, to participate in occasion
Of this kind, and more especially at a time
when the strife for popular favor is being
waged in SUCH a strenuous manner, having
accepted such an invitation the most COM
mon courtesy should cause a guest Of this
kind to respect the opinions of his hosts
if not those of his fellow guests, even
| tho he may know a large number Of the
latter to be among his admirers. In his
remarks before this gathering that sup
posedly sagacious politician and candidate
for republican gubernatorial honors, r. C.
Dunn, took advantage of the opportunity
and abused the courtesy that had been ex-
tended him to address the assemblage by
making what can be construed in no other
terms than an out-and-out bid for the
support and favor of his republican con-
temporaries. The Review does not agree
with MIR. Dunn politically, and much less
! does'it agree with his sense of propriety
| in Introducing into his remarks anything
bearing upon his personal political aspira-
tons. And we do not believe any con
verts were won into his camp by So
doing" - " +|
