be established between pick and ma
chine mining on the mine run basis.

to be paid to all classes of labor.

age shall not be permitted to work in
or about the mine.
"Sixth-That the wage agreement
or contract between the United Mine
Workers and the operators shall con-
tinue for one year from April /, 1906.
"Seyenth-All other conditions OF
the present wage agreement that do
not conflict with the above demands
shall remain in force for the same
period as the new scale"

Political Crisis in England.

London, Feb 3 The crisis over the
future leadership OF the conservative
party has reached its final stage II is
understood that at the conference hast
night, at a dinner between Premier Bal
four and Joseph Chamberlain, leader
al the protectionist wing of the party, it
WIS impossible TO reach whole.hearted
agreement as to future policy. Mr. Bal
four stuck by his original programme,
maintaining that he still favors a retala-
tory tariff, but would not accept pro-
tection. The friends of both statesmen
hope to be able TO induce Mr. Chamber
lain to accept Mr.. BalfJur's declaration
but there is a growing belief that they
will not be successful. II not, split in
the party is inevitable and ii will lead
to the angry breaking up Of the conser-
vatiye party into two hostile groups.
The peacemakers are making the sug-
gestion that the party can be held to-
gelher if both Mr.. Chamberlain ard Mr..
Balfour will retire from Leadership in
the contest in favor of some dsii rse.
II is believed Mr. Chamb 'liiu Vii be
willing to agree to this plan on condition
that the leader to be selected shall be
& protectionist, bat not otherwise. This
would make Mr.. Chamberlain the real
head OF the party and is consequently
objected to by the anti-protectionist wing
# the party There is runor abroad
to the effect that Mr.. Bslfour may solve
the problem now before the party by ac-
cepling peerage aud going into the
