MINERS PREDICT
WARM LABOR WAR
Bic Strike TO Close All Soft
Coal Mines.
UNION WILL PUBLISH DAILY
New Newspaper in Indianapolis Will
Be Launched Soon After April
I for Members.

INDIANAPOLIS. Ind. March l0.-"In
| spite of all peace talk originating in the
East, and IN spite of President Roose-
velt's intervention, there viii be a strike
! of all miners Of the bituminous mines,
and probably in the anthracite mines,
April /"
A high national official of the miners
is authority for the foregoing statement
This viii be the hottest spring and
summer that labor and capital in Amer
lea ever saw he continued. Events
will move swiftly next week. Because
they feel thNt they have the American
people back of them. the miners viii only
reindorse their stand at the recently
disrupted interstate conference.
Discord Among Operators.
The real wrangle. however, will come
when the operators meet week from
Monday There will be discord in that
conference.
But the real interest al present is on
tho gigantic plans that the miners are
working out to use after April /. The big
gest surprise in the part of the plans
that became known today is that a
great daily newspaper VIII be printed
in Indianapolis and delivered to every
member of the organization is contem-
plated
Mr.. Mitchell is quoted as being the
originator of this plan and officials of
the organization have been for several
days collecting figures TO show the in
terstate committee of miners next week
OF course. it will be up to the com
nittee or the executive board 10 decide
finally whether to launch the daily
paper.
1T is hardly expected to make it
paying venture. but there are those in
the organization who feel that a part
of that 100000 strike rund could not
be uCed to better advantage than to
publish a daily union paper.
Will Keep Tab on Fight
TT will inform each member of the
union of progress in the fight and will
altogether be an unusual method of try
ing to win a strike
Something may happen to cause a
settlement 10 be made before April 1.
but if so il will be because the operat-
ors fall back.
LAS true as there is a national organi-
zation of the miners we will not budge
from our position, We accepted a re-
duction two years ago and to accept
another or the same would as well end
the existence of the union And if fight
It must be, which il will be from all ap-
pearances. we will be at them every
inch of the ground"

THOUSANDS INVOLVED
lntimated by Two Members
of the Bench That They
Were Approached.

CINCINNATI Ohio. March 10-Tne
senate committee appointed to investi-
gate affairs Of Cincinnati and Hamilton
county had rather sensational session
this afternoon. when Judges Ferdinand
5eike. jr.. and W. s. Gifrin. of the cir
cult court OF Hamilton county, under
oath testified that George B. Cox. the
Republican leader, had attempted to
sway their decisions from the bench.
Judge Jelke said that the city of Gin
cinnati had brought suit against the
Lane & Bodley Company. Of this city,
who had the contract to furnish the
pumping engines for the new water
works. and against the American Bond
ing Company. as the company's surety.
This suit was for S500.OO0 for alleged
breach OF contract in that the Lane &,
Bod1ey Company failed in their contract
with the city. The bond was in the
sum OF 500. go
Cincinnati Wins Suit.
This suit was tried in the common
pleas court and a verdict Of s23S, 600 was
natl An appeal was Immediately tax
en- to the circuit court, and later a COM
promise was effected the city getting

quisitors- asked Judge Jelke If he had
been approached by any one
Yes, he replied.

court the case against Lane & Bodlep
Company I wish YOU would find some
way to reverse the decision OF the lower
court 1 replied; This case will be tried
on its merits, just as any other case"
Cox Was Displeased.
In reply to a direct question. Judge
Jelke said he thought his answer dis
pleased Mr. Cox, but he (Jelke) refused
to be read out Of the Republican party
by him.
Judge Gif1n practically corroboratad
al that Judge JeIke had said. He testi-
he'd that Cox sent for him 70 come to his

delivered the message.
Judge Jelke was followed on the wit
ness stand by Judge Peter T. Swinr
Judge Swing finally stated that Georgc
B. Cox sent for him to talk about the
Lane < Bodley case. but he could not
remember when the meeting was held
He was not clear as to just what Cox
requested. but he thought he asked that
the case be given full and careful con-
sideration.
When the case came. Judge JeIke
voted to affirm the decision OF the
lower court. Judge Swing voted to re-
verse il. Judge GifTln was away from
the city on his vacation, and this re-
suited in a divided court. Hence the
compromise
The rest of the work of the commit
tee today was investigating the sale of

CASTLE ROCK ABOUT DONE FOR
Cowlitz River Cuts Channel Through
Heart of Little City.

Castle Rock, little town on the
Cowlitz river, has just passed through
the most terrible experience III it's
history as community. Nearly QUE
half of the town he's been wiped out
by the unprecedented winter freshet Of
the Cowlitz river.
Friday morning practically 80 per
cent of the town was still under
water, although the flood had fallen
four feet from midnight. Two thirds
of the town was at one time in fu II
possession Of raging torrent which
ais it receded left the main street full
of debris of every imaginable charac-
ter.
Great holes have been torn in many
Of the streets, the underlying strata Of
quicksand having been swept out by
the food.
The river has cut an entirely new
channel through the principal resi-
deuce section from the Metoalf
Shingle company's mill directly to the
rock, partially undermining the mill
and cutting out under the new school
house foundation, running that costly
two-story structure beyond hope.
! Between 80 and 40 houses in the di
rect path of the freshet were swep
to the ocean. Some 40 houses arr
now on the other side of the river
Many houses are total wreck.

THEY LOST THE TRAIL WAGON
Farmer Has Optical Illusion and Mis-
takes Vehicle for Coyotes.

Here's one on d. @. Baker, M. L.
Watts genial and capable ranch
foreman.
Sunday Mr.. Watts aud his foreman,
Baker, went to the Marion Jack place
with four horse team, and started
home with threshing machine feed
er. AS part of the equipment there
was two-wheeled cart which was
made fast behind on the principle of a
trail wagon.
The day was cold and the men took
turns walking and driving. Just
whose turn to walk is not positively
known, but anyway Mr.. Watts was on
the seat when he looked back and
saw Baker trudgiug along behind but
the trail wagon was missing.
Where's the cart?" inquired
Watts.
"WellI'll be dadblamed, exclaimed
Baker. "I'll be blamefetc bed il
seen it as | passed by. The only thing
I noticed was band Of coyotes back
there som 'ers. !"
The cart was found on a hill abou t
a quarter of mile back, and az
Baker was the man who went after it,
the boys in town do not believe Watts
was trailing behind the vehicle when
it was lost.
