VICE PRESIDENT LEWIS OF THE
UNITED MINE WORKERS OF
AMERICA MAKES PoSIT-
I'VE STATEMENT.
He Says Operators viii Restore Re-
duction Accepted by Miners Two
Years Ago and Rejected by Opera
tors-Mitchell Says Operators Are
Ready to offer Compromise and
Satisfactory One Will Be Made.

indianapolis, Ind, Feb. 26.-In an
official statement just issued by Vice
President r. l.. Lewis of The United
Mine Workers Of America, it is posit-
lively declared that there will be no
strike of the mine workers on April l,
the statement saying that the opera
tors will restore the reduction accepted
by the miners we years ago.
When asked about the statement of
Vice President Lewis hat there would
be no strike, Mitchell said: 81 guess
that's right; but l cannot say any
thing more
f. L. Robbins, leader of the bitum.
nous operators, when told of Mitch
ellis statement, seemed surprise. Hope
is often father to the thought" he said
Even if the miners had made a com
promise proposition, that's no sign that
it will be accepted"
Operators Willing to Compromise.
Soon after the conference began 1t
was learned that the operators were
willing to compromise. 1t is under.
stood they are willing to consent to a
5h per cent wage increase and are
willing to enter into another agree
ment for a ear. Only a tentative
agreement is possible at this confer
ence, as the Ryan resolution forbids
any district of the United Mine Work
ers signing a contract until all the dis.
tricts are satisfied. Mitchell is re,
ported to have told the operators that
if a satisfactory compromise was of
fered he would call the national con
y~ention of miners together to abrogate
the Ryan resolution, and a forma
agreement could then be made. The
call may be issued at any time.

Orchard Told Stories of Twenty-six
Murders in Which Persons Now
Accused Were lnterested-Great-
est Narrative of Crime Ever Given
to Public-ldaho for Justice and
Not Merely for Vengeance.

Boise, Idaho, Feb. 26.-This morn
ing's papers print the formal state
ment issued last night by Governor
Gcoding with regard to the Steunen-
berg assassination case. The governor
says:
Il want to state officially that Harry
Orchard has made a full confession as
to the manner and motive of the as
berg. In that confession Orchard i'm
plicated all those now under arrest
and others, including ]. l.. Simpkins,
He told the story of twenty-six muir
ders in which all the accused parties
were interested. When this story is
given to the public, it will be the great
est narrative of crime which the world
knows There has never been any
' doubt as to the truth of Orchards
confession, and those who are familiar
with the crimes committed in Idaho
and Colorado, and charged to the inner
circle of the Western Federation of
Miners, attribute Orchards confession
to the great brain of James McPar-
land, employed by the state to run
down the murderers of the ex-goy-
ernor."
The governor says Idaho desires
justice and lot vengeance, and says
there is no reward whatever for Sc
curing the conviction of the men
charged.
There will be an absolutely fair
prejudice against any class of people,
be they laborers or be they capital
lists"

STRONG PLEA FOR
A LARGER LARAMIE

paid his money direct to the board of
county commissioners that Messrs.
Jones, McGibbon and Corthen 1.-TWO re-
publicans and one democrat, the same
as on the building commission,) would
not have given as good an accounting?
The "non-partisan' board is praised
for its work, part of which was the -
curing of an appropriation from the
council to assist in purchasing the site,
building the fence, etc, but the council
is condemned because it had to make
a tax levy to Va the bill. Oh! con
.sistency.
Attack on the Council.
The remarks of this individual we're
undoubtedly intended more to throw
discredit upon the council than any
thing else. Personally I believe we
have as good a council as we have had
in recent years. They are men who
do things. Where others have bickered
n failed they have acted and succeed
ed. Though their action has on occas-
ions been criticised, they have been
justified by results. Let It be said to
their credit that when an action for
the public good has been required they
have presented a solid front, the dem
ocratic member right up in the fore
front with his republican brothers.
sharing his part Of the responsibility.
They are criticised for calling a special
election to decide this question, yet not
a whimper was raised against the for
mer council for calling an election to
vote $4,000 bonds for a new reservoir,
and which ayailed nothing. 1t Is a ter.
rlDie thing for them to ask $50, 900 or
SO much Of it as may be needed for a
new water system, yet it was all right
for a former council to be entrusted
with that amount to build sewers.

cause they did not employ a competent
engineer at an expense of $1,000 or
more to make a detailed plan before

that were | compelled to call on dad
for the money, l would first find out
about what wanted and the approx
mate cost, | would then inform dad"
OF my Intentions and II he said the
money was to my order, l would then
employ the architect. This is just what
the council is doing. What a fool trick

70 The Editor Of The Republican.

To the Editor OF The Republican.
While the water question is en-.
crossing the attention of the public,
a few thoughts may not be amiss. The
discussion at the literary club last
Thursday struck me not so much as a
desire to find means for the betterment
of an acknowledged insufficient service
as it did to find excuses for voting
against the proposed bond issue. How.
ever, If it did nothing else it brought
out the views of some of our citizens
and showed on what grounds they op
pose the issue.
At the meeting Thursday night, with
the exception of n man, every
speaker practically admitted that ou
water system needed improvement, the
objection largely being to the cost and
the necessity of issuing bonds to meet
the expense.
Folly of Partisan Boards.
The burden of the first speakers ar
~ "oo appaiVIlig lhc lhtolhpt-
tency of the council to handle such an
amount of money, he being skeptical
as to its use and prefering a piecemeal
improvement. He advocated a mon
partisan" commission and pointed to
the library building as a monument tc
such a commission. | had always been
of the impression that the library
building was a monument to the philan
thropy Of Andrew Carnegie. But
granting that this building is a mon
ument to a non-partisan commission
are not our splendid university build
Iings just as beautiful monuments tc
partisan boards? The same con
tractor who erected the library build
ing for the "non-partisan' commission
built the university gymnasium for q
partisan board. Did he do more hon.
est work for one than the other? Does
anyone doubt that had Mr.. Carnegie

LITTLE MILL STARTED
ON CONTINUOUS RUN

and tested under the gage by District
Foreman Dan Sullivan, Superintendent
Jacobus and Mr.. Fetters and proved to
be round II smooth. Mr.. Ryan was
told that he had made a round bar and
not a half round as sometimes hap
pens in starting a mill. The rolls were
all true in their places. the billet max
ing quick time and coming through all
right. 1t went in and out of the first
set of rolls, in and out of the second
and once through the finishing rolls,
when it was dragged to the hot bed
and allowed to cool.
Mr.. Fetters returned to Omaha at
today. He said he would be here
from time to time, being the direct rep
resentative of w. r. McKeen, jr., of
Omaha, the superintendent of motive
power n machinery for the Hartman
system, who vas one of the strongest
advocates tor the %reopening of the mill,
and who will be delighted to hear that
his efforts have been successful. He
was notified within an hour of the start
ing of the mill, and when Mr.. Fetters
reaches Omaha Mr.. McKeen will re-
ceive a good long piece of the first bar
rolled, which will be cut up and nickle-
plated for the benefit of his close per-
sonal friends. One piece will lie on
the desk of President E. H. Hartman

Everybody Saw Whole Works.
The visitors watched the progress
of the two billets and then visited ev-
cry nook and corner of the mill. Much
work is yet to be done before the re-
pairs are completed, but it is believed
now the little mill will be kept stead
lily at work producing merchant iron.
The rolls worked well, the engine NOV
ed without a hitch, the furnaces were
capable of imparting the desired heat
and the boilers furnished all the steam
necessary. In fact, they were blow

1t is hoped to have the Undetermined
mill going by the first of March. Some
rolls yet to come are now on the way

they arrive. Mr.. Fetters informed Su-
p~erintendent Jacobus this morning that
Mr.. McKeen had issued orders for 1O0.-

TO be used in laying the new rails of
