SOUTHERN MINERS ARE TRY
ING TO GET BUSINESS OF
PENNSYLVANIA LINES.
THEY EMPLOY NO union men
An Agent Here Yesterday Said That
He Looked For Operators to
Win Gal Strike.

With great coal strike impend-
ing, and a prospect of the mines
throughout the country being tied up
in one of the fercest labor troubles
ever known, the coal operators have
recalled their travelling men, and no
contracts are being made for coal to
be delivered after early summer, or
about the first of May Coal men
are clinging to their supply, and it is
impossible to get any grade of coal
from the operators unless an advance
in the price is met.
The mines in Tennessee and Ken
lucky which are not worked by I'M
ion labor are flooding the country
with statesmen, with orders to sell and
make any sorts of contracts, as there
is no likelihood of strike in their
mines, and they insure coal at a
price near the regular price, for
year to come. Statesmen from these
southern mines have been visiting
Richmond manufacturers who use a
great deal of "steam'' coal and
many large orders have been placed.
One agent of the Southern mines
said yesterday that the present coal
strike will forever settle the question
of union labor in the mines. He
says that the mines Of his company
have been kept clear of union labor
and have been operated without a
bitch for years. The agent thinks
that as the operators are prepared
for the strike, and the miners are
not, that after a long battle the min !
ers will 60 back to work individually
and the Miners Union will be no
more. !

Logansport, Ind, Feb. 21.-A
stranger, representing himself to be
an agent of the Southern Pacific Rail-
way, and offering to find positions for
them, led Mrs. Jennie Gregg, a board
ing house keeper, and Miss Margaret

their situations here. Getting from
Mrs. Gregg about $3.50, he left them
in Chicago and disappeared.
Mrs. Gregg had been promised the

road owned in Riverside, Cal. Miss
LOTUS, who supplied some money,
also was guaranteed" place in the
company's office in San Francisco.
They accompanied the stranger to

await his return they accompanied
him. There he eluded them. Ac-
cording to his victims he has plausi-

PANHANDLE is WILLING
IT is NOW UP TO STREET CAR
COMPANY.
officials of Traction Line Can Decide
Whether There Will be West
Second st. Viaduct.

1t is now up to the Richmond
Street and Interurban Company, as
to whether or not there is to be a
viaduct under the Panhandle railroad
tracks on West Second street. The
Pennsylvania railroad company has
drawn up a contract agreeing to pay
sixty per cent of the cost of construc-
ting the viaduct, in case that the
street car company will agree not to
build any tracks on the street under
the viaduct.
1t is understood that this arrange
ment is satisfactory to the city, and
now all that is necessary for the con-
struction of the viaduct, is the con-
sent of the street car officials to the
agreement.

Hagerstown, Ind, Feb. 21.-The
Light Inspection Car Co. of Ha-
gerstown, is past growing into one
of the important industries of the
county. 1t now employs forty peo-
pie, including the Office force. 1t
has branched off from the manufac-
ture of the foot propelled light in
spection cars, into the manufacture
of the motor inspection car, and is
also manufacturing a gasoline engine
which is one of the best on the mar
ket. This engine is being sold to
farmers to take the place of their
wind mills for pumping purposes and
is proving satisfactory in every par
ticular. Many people are building
private water plants and are using
these engines for their power.
A shipment Of fifteen Of the motor
cars Of this company which is con-
signed to Yucatan, were lined up on
Washington street Saturday morning
and a photograph of them taken.
This company is badly behind with
its orders and will soon find it nee
e. sary to enlarge it's plant.
This thing it had an eye to when it
purchased the old York house and
maChi"e sl"p across the street from
their present quarters.

OUTLOOK VERY FlATTERING
RICHMOND HIGH SCHOOL
TRACK TEAM HAS HOPES.
School Thinks It Can Do Better In
Big Field Meet Than Ever
Before.

The high school track team is now
in active training for the big North
ern Indiana Interscholastic meet
which will be held this coming May
at Kokomo. Richmond, Logans-
port, Marion, Anderson and Kokomo
high schools compose the leagIe,
which will be four years old this
May. In the three meets that have
been held Richmond finished in Sec
ond place each time. Rettig, dis
taice runner and Manford in the
weights will be missed this year by
the local team, but it is thought that
several stars will be developed from
the ranks of the large freshmen class
which entered the school this year,
Guyer, a veteran weight man, will
fill in the vacancy left by Manford
nicely, and all in all the outlook for
winning team is flattering.

70 NOMINATE
Continued from Pase ~

sentation. 1t has been mainly be-
cause Of Congressman Watson s pres
tige in Washington that his constitu-
ents have seen fit to send him back
to Congress time after time, and
there was little surprise shown when
not even a shadow of opposition ap-
peared in the convention prelimi-
naries this year.
Aside from the report of the reso-
lutions committee and the speech of
acceptance by Congressman Watson,
there will be little to tomorrow s
convention, though one might mag
inc from the large number of early
arrivals that there was to be a
mighty battle waged. There is con-
siderable state politics being talked
here tonight. The Storms incident is
being generally discussed, and the
opinion seems to prevail that Cover
nor Hanly in forcing the resignation
of the Secretary of State without
calling for an extra session of the
Legislature, thereby putting the state
to vast expense, has won another
point that has done much to show
his strength.
Candidates for state Office will be
thick as hops on the morrow. This
being the first congressional conven-
ton in the state, the aspirants for
high honors are here to mingle with
the delegates from the vine counties
composing the cold burnt" district
and all are hopeful of landing their
share of votes for the state conven-
ton to be held at Indianapolis in
April
The Wayne county delegation will
get here tomorrow morning by troll
ley route. Wayne furnishes the big
gest bunch of delegates in the dis
trict and therefore is potent factor
in everything that is done in the way
Of organization.
The program as practically agreed
upon, calls for the assembling of the
delegates tomorrow morning at 10 80
1T which time Chairman Owen Carr,
IF the district committee will call the
meeting to order. Nominations for
permanent chairman will be made
and the election will follow. Al
permanent secretary will be selected
and vice-nresidents from each of the
1ine counties in the district will also
}e named. The appointment Of COM
nittees will follow and then adjourn
nent will take place until after din
Ter. At this adjourned session the !

note. He begins BY declaring that
the M. X. & T. road has no standing
in court and will be thrown out the
minute il strikes the court. Then ne
charges that it is crime to let the
M. X. & 4. 60 into court-into the
court where it will have no standing
and where ii will be aiezed by the
bosom Of its pantaloons and pitched
head foremost into space. Mr.. Har
ris has been honored by Kansas
greatly in the past. He has been
spoken well Of and respected BY the
people Of all political parties. If,
however, he retains that confidence
and respect. he will have to admit in
his present campaign that the Re
publican party Of the state has been
working, and to purpose, for about
all Of the reforms he is now clamor-
ing for. He will have to admit that
he could have done much in the past
to have fastened these reforms, and
that he failed to do it. He will have
to admit that he recognizes that the
Republican party will accomplish
more in bringing about these reforms
than his own party would if put into
power.
Mr.. Harris has been credited by
the people Of Kansas with being q
big man, but if he depends upon max
ing campaign Of noise with this
"Katy suit" as theme, he will fall
from his present standing. 1t sounds
too much like the old familiar wall
Of the ordinary Office hunter, and it
doesn't fit well with the character
which has been given to Mr.. Harris
by Kansas people.
