WHY NOT A UNION DEPOT?
WEST slDER ASKS WHY EFFORT

Because Norfolk Avenue, for Technical
Reasons, Was Declared Unavailable,

This Citizen Sees no Objection to

81 have been rather puzzled by the
latest developments in the Norfolk
union depot project" said west side
resident to The News yesterday.
First came the action of the Com
mercial club giving expression to the
general sentiment of Norfolk people
favorable to the erection Of Il union
station. Then followed the interview
with the Northwestern railroad Off
Gals in which the proposed location OF
the union station was declared impos-
sible for certain technical reasons con-
nected with the movement of trains.
| then saw by The News that slim
prospects" existed for union station.
Now read in the paper that the Com
mercial club has ceased its efforts to
secure a union passenger station for
the city.
1.-THE question in my mind is this ::
Why Is a union station no longer with
in the range of possibilities? The
only new feature contributed to the
situation during the past two weeks
according to my understanding, is the
statement of the Northwestern officials
that a Norfolk avenue station is not
feasible. If they have gone beyond
the published statements and declared
that no union station is feasible: that
of course would put the matter in 9
different light. do not know that
they have.
THE Northwestern Is willing tC
erect a new passenger depot in the vi
cinity of Philip avenue, the nature o.
the depot according to the newspaper
being dependent on the attitude o.
the city on the Philip avenue CLOSING
proposition. Now, why can not thi!
station, to be erected say between
Madison and Philip avenues, be {
union station of character suited t
the present deserts and future require
e ments of Norfolk? Are any of thu
three roads known to be opposed t
such movement?

MINE
EXPLOSION.
Facts as Found by Hon. Andrew
Roy of His Investigation
Recorded in the Coal
Miners History.

The third edition of the ellis
tory of the Coal Miners of the
United States,' compiled by Hon.
Andrew Roy, of Glen Roy, Ohio,
is out and ready to be placed on
the market. It is the only au-
thentic work of the Kind publish
ed. Mr.. Roy is recognized
throughout the United States as
its most able authority on the sub
ject, he having devoted his entire
life to practical and scientific
study of mines and mining.
1t should prove to be doubly in
interesting to the miners of West
Virginia because OF the fact that a
chapter of it is devoted to the
Stuart mine explosion which is
written from the personal findings
of Mr.. Roy, who explored the i'll
fated mine soon after the explosion
and contains much information
that has never been made public,
and will make interesting reading
for those who desire to learn the
exact conditions as found by him.
Every miner in the state should
read it and The Labor Argus has

sition viii be found on page two OF

MISSOURI MACHINE
RULE IS DOOMED.
The State Federation Inaugurates
Campaign for Initiative
and Referendum.

The Missouri Federation of
Labor at its anual session last
week went on record in favor of
the adoption of the initiative and
referendum constitutional amend
ment and the officers were instruct
ed to begin campaign of educa-
ton at once with the purpose Of
having the amendments adopted.
For years the Missouri Feder-
alton of Labor has fought for the
adoption of this constitutional
amendent, aided in the fight by
such men as John u. White, DR..
W. T. Hill, Hon. Speed Mosby,
Henry s. Julian, Henry Sarmon,
w. Moser and a host of other men
who have contributed time and
money to the movement to estab-
llsh the system in Missouri.
There is every reason to believe
the coming state campaign will
have as its main issue the adoption
and carrying out of the initiative
and referendum system of govern
ment.

CHEERS THE
BOOSTERS.
Reverend Charles Stelz1e Gives the
Cowardly Knockers a Hot
Shot in a Sermon.

Rev. Charles Stclzle Of the Pres
byterlan church wockingmcn's de-
partmcnt usually has something
good to say to workingmen, but We
believe his most timely sermon iS
given In the following, under the
caption of s'The Cheerful Booster
''Some men have skins as tough
as that of the rhinocerus. They
are absolutely indifferent to what.
ever may be thought or said about
ther,. EnsssIaost Of b us \ are finer
bread. We do care. And il is
right that we shonld.
Not that we are swayed from
the course which we know to be
right because Of the adverse
opinions Of our fellows, but it
seems more human to please. Be
cause this is tEue--apd most men
are of this opinion--it lis passing
strange that,so few of us regard it
in our dealings with others.
Perhaps the most trying ex-
spcrIencedn many Il worliingman's
life is the consciousness that a
bunch of his fellow workers are
ridiculing him. There may be
some little peculiarity about him,
to which he has become aecustom.
cd-something that he eats at
lunch hour, something that he
wears, the way that he goes
about doing particular Job
anyone ofa dozen things, which
bring upon him the ridicule which
makes his sensitive soul shrivel.
.y,T rt.f hx, 4 a AZ
he is unhappy.
"One of the most heartlcss bits
of brutality that you and T en-
counter is when two or three chaps
get together, and, with amused
glances, riddle with their looks an
other fellow who is unconscious of
the nature Of the criticism which
they are making Of him. 1t would
be easier to bear and more honor
able to defend, if they should all
set upon him with fists or clubs.
But the cowardly gossiper in the
shop wouldn't dare face the man
whom he is holding up to ridicule.
2 One of the finest evidences of
culture and good breeding is the
passing over or ignoring of an
others mistakes or failings, Din
ing with company of people who
were supposed to know all the
rules of etiquette, was a young
fellow who hadn't had their adj
vantages. The soup was extreme
ly hot. Taking lump of ice
which was intended for the pur-
pose of keeping the butter hard
and cold, he placed it into his
soup, amid the smiles of the rest of
the company. Seeing the en-
barrassment of the youngster, with
out "a smile, and speaking about
another matter to the entire COM
pany the host also helped himself
to a piece Office and used it as the
young fellow had done. That was
tact and culture and mighty good
sense
Let's develop more of it in. the
shop 1t will make life very much
brighter to the man whose bur-
dens, if we were carrying, them,
might drive us to despair. Let's
be boosters instead of knockers.

UNWARRANTED AND
VICIOUS ATTACK
On the Officials Of the National and Local Mine
Workers Organization and the
Labor Press. -

industry in a state containing the
richest deposits Of coal to be found
IN any state of the Union The
article which is reprinted in the
Argus in order to reflect upon the
work of Hon. John Nugent, State
Commissioner of Immigration, is
considered unjust to the man who
until a few months ago, devoted
his .ohole time toward lettering the
condition of the miner in this state,
and whose entire interest at this
time in with the miners of this
state.
sN1r. Nugent was seen this morn.
ing and in reply to a question con
cern1ng the reference to him and
his work, said:
- fail to understand why the
editor OF the United Mine Workers
Journal, knowing the articles he
had formerly published in his
paper as to the causes Of explosions
IN our state, charging the operators
with the reckless employmento of in.
experienced foreigners in the
mines, knowing as he should that
into West Virginia thousands of
lnexperience men direct from Ellis
Island were flooding our mines,
knowing that at no time in the his
tory Of the state when there We're
more men in the mines and more
coming to the state, not Of the de-
-irable, but of the undesirable,
class as charged by him and us,
against the operators, that if he
but read the report Of the mining
commission, appointed by the Gov
ernorsa!s RI the aiine Inspectors re-
port, trying to fix responsibility Of
explosions in our state to the en-
ployment of inexperienced men,
then strange to say, that when the
employers seek to remedy the cause
of complaint made by us, aud we
are asked by them to assist in re-
medying the evil by lending our
aid to secure practical, experienced
and organized miners into the state,
both myself and the operators are
condemned while nothing is done
by any official in the United Mine
Workers today in our state, to pre-
vert the employment OF the mex
ptI1cIlcCIl lucl Ill UIlc mines, or
coming to our state for employment.
"In regard to their statement
that the miners of England were
well versed as to conditions in
West Virginia, and the impossibili-
ty of me inducing them to come to
West Virginia, if this be true, why
the fear and cause of notifying by
circular from the Indianapolis
office, the miners Of England to
stay away from West Virginia.
GAS far as my success in England
is concerned, all I can say is that
am more than pleased at the re-
ports that have come the men
who have left England, and are
now working in this state, and
I know of thousands of others that
are putting forth their best efforts
to accumulate sufficient during the
prosperous times, that they now
have in England, to enable them to
reach West Virginia.
Il would probably have said
nothing as regards this article if
not for its republication by sup
posed labor paper in my own town
upon my return, because I came to
West Virginia-as an organizer of
the United Mine Workers of Amer
ica''
