Farmer Compliments This Paper.
Especial to The Evening Times.]
Willow City, Feb. 15.-Willow City is
alive with visitors from 3the country
and surrounding towns and the two
day sessions are attended by large
and enthusiastic crowd of farmers.
Willow City is a progressive commu-
nifty and the many fine farms sur.
rounding the town shows the quality
of the country.
AZ 1t may not be generally known, but
farmers institutes are of comparative
ly recent date. One of the first insti-
tutes held in the state was held at
Larimore in the winter of 1893 and
was gotten up by Thomas Eastgate
and ]. Dexter Pierce. The meet
ing was poorly attended and was about
as unpopular as Gallileo's theory that
the world was round Talk about
knockers and kickers against "book
farming" but the first institute held
in the, state at Larimore took the cake.
But since that first meeting the hay
seed cobwebs have been brushed away
and 1t Is no trouble to pack the big
opera house in Larimore when an in-S
stitute is on. 1t is the same all over
the state. The farmers are beginning
to realize that the farmers institutes
are of great Importance to farmers.
They are beginning to appreciate the
fact that farming is an occupation re-
Quiring study and intelligence. There
are a few prominent people in this
state and Minnesota who are deserving
of great credit for the interest they
have taken in bringing about facilities
for improving the occupation of farm

four passengers went ashore between
midnight and 2 o'clock thsi morning

moderated and with the ebbing, of the
tide the vessel settled in a nest of
rocks about 500 feet from shore and
almost high and dry. The vessel has
apparently suffered little damage, but
part of her cargo will have to be
taken of before she can be foated.

Algeciras, Spain, Feb. 15.-The sit

versy over the vital points of the pro-
posed Moroccan reforms remains un-
changed, although the feeling prevails
among the delegates that some decis-
i've step is not far off. Ambassador
White, chief of the American delega-
ton, in his efforts to find COM
promise, has not varied from the
course which he has followed since
the conference began. With the CO.
operation of Marquis Visconti Venosta,
head of the Italian mission, the Ameri-
can ambassador has already put for
ward several tentative plans for an
adjustment, which have been unsuc-
cessful owing to the unyielding atti-
tude of one side or the other.

p.
Of the miners and operators meet in
Joint conference today in an effort to-
reach an amicable agreement regard
ing the matters in dispute. Upon the
result of the conference hinges the
question Of war or peace in the min
ing regions. Statements given out by
the leaders OF both sides taken into
consideration with other known facts,
force the conclusion that little may be
expected in the way of peaceful set
tlement. II d strike is averted it will
be brought about only by the miners,
receding in. their demands. So far as
the mine owners are concerned they
present an unbroken front and are not
expected to give in an inch. 1t is
practically the first time in the history
Of their Organization that there has
been absolute harmony among the,
operators. Their attitude is one of
perfect confidence and leads to the in
evitable conclusion that they are fully
prepared for strike. For months,
past they have been heaping the great
storage pockets throughout the coal
region full to overfiowing. 1t. is esti-
mated that the supply on hand is suf-
ficent to meet all demands for year
to come and justifies the belief Of the
operators that now If ever is the time
to have it out with the miners and II
possible to break the back Of their,
great organization known as the I'm
tied Mine Workers Of America.
Among the miners on the other
hand, all is not harmony. President
John Mitchell is stalking his all on the
success of the impending struggle.
Unfortunately for him he has not the
united support of the miners. And
here unfortunately still the dissen-.
tients influx a number iii influential.
leaders, such as Dolan of Pennsylvania
who are able to muster q strong fol-
lowing to oppose or balk Mitchell's
plans. But Mitchell realizes that he
is in the game and must stick to the
finish. II he wins it will mean re-,
newed power for him and the great or.
ganization Of which he is the head
center, But II the strike is a failure
for the miners 1t will mean the passing
of Mitchell and In all probability the
break-uTsof the United Mine workers.
It is estimated that the great coal
Of 1902 cost the operators upwards ;4of
$4,000, 900 and the miners half that
sum in wages. But the enormity OF
these figures and the certainty that
another strike would prove even more
costly will not avert the struggle. 1T
is fight for existence and II it comes
it will be a fight to a finish. I,
AS stated before, the only chance Of
averting q strike win be for the miners
to recede In their demands. These
demands are und derstood to include
recognition OF the union, an eight-hour
day, revision Of the c0nciliation
board 80 that grievances II may be-
quickly adjusted, a standard ton,
equalization Of wages and uniform
scale for all dead work. Neither an;
t-hour day nor recognition of the
union will be granted by the opera
tors. It q safe to say that the best

more or less accurate reports of their

among the proposals to be submitted

employees paid by the hour, day or

an increase in wages of from 10 to

adoption of system by which coal
shall be paid for by weight wherever
practicable and recognition of the
union, Before they went into the con-
ference today, the operators and rep

of an amicable agreement The ex-

strike of 1902 has caused them to
approach the present situation in con-
Ciliatory mood.

1t is the true spirit of town building to eaFe your
money where YOU make your living In other words pat
ronize home industries This applies to the merchants
as well to their customers.
If good ice cream is manufactured in Tulsa those
who retail it doing the right thing to purchase it.
If good mill planning work is done here every who
needs such should use it in his building and not send
abroad for it, If good cigars made here, it is good
policy and patriotism buy them in preference to others
The list might be continued ad nfnitum
This advice applies to corporations also. Those located
here and doing business here making good thing
by it they would not be here They also, should buy

thus deprive this town of at least 5000 year This is
