Miners President, by Silence, In
dictates Plan to Boom Him
for Vice. Presidency. e
Special to The Journal,

Indianapolis, July 2S.-After all, it
might turn out that a smile OF lu-
credu1ity or a negative nod OF the
head is irrelevant when John Mitchell
is mentioned as a possible. candidate
for vice president on the democratic
ticket. =,
Altho Mr.. Mitchell, as president of
the United Mine Workers Of America,
has usually been too busy. to deny
part in politics, his western friends arc
surprised that he has made no effort
to lay off his boom for the vice presi:
/ Dental nomination, which was started
in. the anthracite district some time
ago. Some Of his friends go SO far as
to say that he is listening to the
buzzing Of the bee and that he will
sit still and see whether it will come
near enough to sting him. :,
which has been heard in many sec:
tions, may be heard in others and
there are indications that while
Mitchell has not made any effort to
assist in the spreading Of this cry
he will not attempt to check it. This
being the situation, it is only fair itc
assume, these same friends say, that
his boom is the result of well-laid
| plans. ~,,--

of Labor and the United Mine Work

FANATICS DO NOT RULE
Dolgourokoff, Head Of Doulna's Commit
s. tee Is an Aristocrat.

BY Publishers Press.
London, July 2S.-On the surface of
things the Russian liberal movement, as
Professor Milyoukov calls the struggle
for the civil liberties promised in the
ukase of 1905, is quieter today than it
has been for months. But the leaders
are working with greater energy than
ever for the achievement of their pur-
poses They are not beguiled by the
Stolypln program of Cancellation and
are directing their efforts to a consoli-
dation Of the numerous factions into a
common platform.
That the parliamentary forces are
not given over to the leadership of the
fanatical element is apparent from the
fact that the president of the perpetual
executive committee Of the former low
or house is. an aristocrat, member of
one of the oldest Russian families
Prince Paul Dolgourokoff. The Vibore
manifestants who selected him for the
post, Included the entire socialist grouI
