Many Indiana Workers Claim State
Leaoers Yield Too Easily.

Terre Haute, Ind, Dec. Sixteen
thousand Indiana miners are voting
by secret referendum for officers Of
the United Mine Workers. The opposi-
tion to the president and state officers
is based on the charge that they are
compliant in dealing with the opera
tors.
National President Mitchell is linked
with the state officers by the opposi-
ton. Recently In special state con-
vention, when he was accused of yield
ing to the employers, he replied "The
opposition is led by those who seek to
take the miners organization into the
socialists camp.
President OConnor is opposed by W.
d. Van Horn, a former president. who
has the following Of those who recall
his aggressive policy. Friends of the
present administration point out that
the mining interests now are in few
hands through the merger of the com
panies and that where Van Horn used
to gain point was when he had an op-
orator of one mine to deal with.

Five of the supreme judges have rec
commended to the governor the commu

reason assigned for the recommends

Public Schools Of This Country
Roosevelt Exceeds Authority in Leg
isIative and judicial Departments.

Washington, D. c.. Dec 12.-Caustic
criticism of Roosevelt's position on the
Japanese question prefaced Senator
Rayners discussion in the senate today
of the constitutional questions in
volved. If the military and civil forces
of the federal government were to be
used by the President, Raynei said, it
became very important to know the ex-
act power in the matter.
"The President" he added, sis exer-
cising a great many functions, execu-
tive and judicial, lawful and unlawful,
constitutional and unconstitutional II
he is possessed of the idea he is super
visor Of all the public schools in the
various states of the union, and he
seems to be impressed with this idea,
because in the very last paragraph of
his message he recommends the estab-
lishment of shooting galleries in all
large public schools of the country, we
must either disabuse his mind of this
fancy or we must let him know we
agree as to his omnipotence and his
jurisdiction.
Rayner continued that there is no
provision whatever in the treaty with
japan that confers the right the Presf-
dent speaks of or gives to the govern
ment Of Japan the privileges 1t claims
in connection with the public school
system of California or any other state.
If there was such a provision in this
treaty, or any other treaty, comforting
this right the treaty would be void,
