can be agreed upon. The joint scale
committees of the joint conferences of
the two districts resumed their ses-
sions this morning, after a deadlock
lasting five days, during which there
has been no indication of a weakening
of either side.
Robbins Is for the Miners.
The miners demand an advance in
wages of $50 per cent, which is the
restoration of the wage scale of 1903
Il. l.. Robbins. speaking for the OPP
orators of western Pennsylvania, has
offered to pay this advance, and has
threatened the operators of Ohio, Indi-
ana and Illinois = who are standing
firmly against the payment of any adj
vance-that unless they recede from
their position he will break away from
their interstate agreement and run his
mines on the advanced scale.
Question That Is Not Settled.
Whether the miners will agree TO
sign by districts and allow the mines
of western Pennsylvania to run, while
those of Illinois, Indiana and Ohio
stand idle, is a question that has not
been openly settled. President Mitch
ell and other leaders of the miners re-
fuse to make any statement on the
subject, or even to indicate what their
position will be should the situation
demand n specific declaration. 1t is
undecided whether the miners in con-
vcntion would ratify any such agree
ment, even if made by the national Off
ccrs.
Indications Are for Disagreement.
The situation here has not changed
since the joilA, scale committees adj
journed over Sunday. Indications point
to disagreement of the two joint COM
mittecs today and the probable calling.
together of the joint conference this
afternoon, when the fight over the wage
scale will be continued publicly, and
not behind closed doors, as the SEES
sions of the joint committees have been
held. The present wages scale expires
next Saturday and unless an agree
ment is reached by the miners and OPP
orators before that time 225,000 union
bituminous miners will be called from
the mines in the states named.

of the Federation of Labor relative to

affirm as one of the cardinal principles
of the trade union movement that the

THAT the American Federation Of

ranks to make new laws and admins

can Federation Of Labor, and at the
same time secure an impartial judici-
airy that will not govern us by ar
bitrary injunctions of the courts. nor

Out of the 500 or more operations
for appendicitis performed last year
in the Omaha hospitals less than 10
percent of the patients were suffer
ing from that disease, according to
a statement by DR.. Alfred Shipman,
who has been a well known practi-
toner in Nebraska for twenty. three
years. Every onewho has pain in
his abdomen said DR.. Shipman, sis,
according to the diagnosis Of his
physician, suffering from appendi-
citis and nothing but an immediate
operation will give relief. ! under
stand that about 500 people have
been operated on for appendicitis in
the last year. ''Does any intelligent
physician believe there has been even
100 cases appendicitis in the entire
state Of Nebraska during the past
year? They do not. They know
that an occasional case Of aprendi-
citis requires operation. But the
appendix craze is in full swing
among the people as well as among
many doctors, and many good physi-
clans are inclined to regard any
ache situated kelow the diaphram
to be caused by a full-Gedged case
of appendicitis requiring an i'm
mediate operation. "Whileit is true
that many unnecessary operations
are performed, it is not right tc
blame the profession too severely
as many are misled by the leading
men in the profession, who refuse
to raise their voice against an abuse
they know exists The people are
also insistent upon operations

Truth About Advertising.

There is no good thin 6 in this
world that is not misused, and this
is as true of advertising as of any,
thing else. The temptation to
stretch things" in telling story Of
business-which is truly what an
advertisement isis as strong as in
telling an ordinary yarn, and this
leads to untruth and deception. with
the consequent result that many all
advertisement is discounted as to its
most important statements, and in
many cases properly so. The firm
that succeeds in sticking to the ex-
act truth in its advertising and con-
vincing the people of the fact, has
learned the secret of making adver-
Using pay, providing it also knows
how to tell the truth in a timely and
convincing manner.
A single business man in a town
who brazenly disregards setting forth
exact fact in his advertising may
easily spoil the value Of advertising
to ali the rest and to the newspapers
as we'll, so that it would be splendid
law if it could be made an indict
able offense for dealer to make any
statement in print not easily sub
stantiated. No doubt there would
be a revolution in present advertis-
ing methods, but the result would
be healthful, and in the end more
profitable to all concerned
No town ever amounts to much
withoutone or more good newspapers
to tell the stories Of business. This
can be set down as indisputable.
The advent Of a newspaper, there
fore, often marks the beginning of a
towns business prosperity and gen
eral awakening, but it is doubtful
whether the newspaper is given this
credit. 1t is often true that non
advertiser in a live town does good
business-it is very natural that be
SHOULDN'T the credit is not due to
himself or to his not advertising
but to those who do spend their cash
literally with the newspapers and
bring the tide of people to the place
to trade. Once there they are likely
to drop into the stores that do not
advertise, particularly in certain
lines of business not usually exten.
sively advertised. Secondly, then
it is advertisers who help make a
town progressive-in helping Their
own business they help all business
| The sum Of the whole question is,
therefore, that public spirited and
discerning people should support
advertising firms and at the same
time insist on their telling the truth
If the people like to be deceived
and some appear to-they are apt tc
be accommodated, but if merchants
know that their announcements are
critically watched and that their un
truthfulness reacts on their business,
no other incentive toward reforma-
ton is needed. The people can, if
they wish. compel truthful stories
of business to be told, and thereby
raise the value Of advertising tc
everybody-the merchant, the news
paper, the town and the community
in general. --Taneytown (Md) Re.

Clothes and Conduct.

Every man and every woman feels
the influence of clothes and appear
ance upon conduct. You have heard
of the lonely man in the Australian
bush who always put on evening
dress for dinner, so that he might
remember he was a gentleman. Ad.
Olson could not write his best unless
he was we'll dressed. Put a naughty
girl in her best Sunday clothes and
she will behave quite nicely. Put a
blackguard into khaki and he will
be hero. Put an omnibus conductor
into uniform and he will live up to
his clothes.-London Chronicle.

Spelling Reform

Washington Star: The National
Educational association is in session
at Louisville. In the course of an
informal discussion of spelling re-
form resolution was adopted re-
guessing the association to order the
following twelve phonetic words
used he reafter in all it's publications:
"Bisness" for business, "enuf"
for enough, "fether" for feather,
"mesure" for measure, "plesure'
for pleasure, red for read, ruff
trough, "trauf" for trough, thru"
for through, 'tuf" for tough, "tung"
for tongue, yum" for young.
There is no question of the plain
logic of the spelling reform PROPOSE
ton. Itappeals to the reason. Its
advocates can talk into silence any
one who undertakes to defend the
present arbitrary, unsystematic code
ofsymbols on the ground Of science.
Yet when all is said and done, the
opponent Of the reform has only to
say that the thing cannot be dol e
by law or resolution, and that ends
the debate. Custom is the deter
mining factor. If the National Ed
ucational association adopts these
twelve phonetic spellings and sticks
to them, and then if the text book
publishers agree to adopt them, and
if the teachers strictly follow the
books and the children are not cor
rected at home, and if there is no
prohibition Of the process by statute,
the next generation will probably
write somewhat as follows:
Bisness over for the day, the yung
woman set forth for plesure. She
put on hat with red fether and
measured her way toward the coun
try, passing thru tut part Of the
town where the yungsters crowded
about the horse traufs, their lungs
sending forth ruff words which she
had never red without blushing.
Could we ever get used to such
spelling? Of course we could. We
can get used to anything. We ac-
quire taste for caviare occasionally,
and most of us are now able to Wis
ualize John Rockefeller with a wig
instead of a bald pate. But in this
matter OF spelling reform it is always
| to be said that the adoption Of the
plain and simple combinations OF
common sense will, at one fell
swoop, destroy the lines which now
are drawn between certain social
groups. No longer can the good
spoilers lift their eyebrows in mute
scorn of the poor spoilers casting
them into outer darkness. No more
will misspelled letters be joyfully
read aloud in newspaper offices as a
diversion from the weary grind Of
the days weak Great reforms are
! always costly.
