WATER METERS.

are certainly the town topic at the
 present time, and it's hard matter
 to tell what will be done regarding
 them. Certainly If they meter every
 house in the city they might as well
 get corner on the air we breathe
 and meter that also. But politicians
 are politicians the world over and If
 you doubt us just see what they did
 last year over in Washington, D. c.
 They passed pure food law that is
 a blessing in many cases. but which
 in some cases is the most preposter- ous piece of nonsense ever put forth as law. Now at the present time If we put an ounce or two of chickory in your coffee, or if we put anything in it (say cocoa), or any other good wholesome article which is in no sense detrimental to your good heath, they can have us arrested and brought before court and fined not more than $500 or imprisoned not more than one year. Therefore on and after the first day of this year, 1907, you get pure coffee at our store unless you tell us to the contrary, and we are very sorry. because the way we blend our coffees our GUS toners have always been perfectly natisfied. sHowever, if you want our old reliable 25c or 30c coffees you must ask for 25c or 30c compound, which means it is not pure coffee. but IS much better and more palatable than if 1t was pure coffee.

STUART MINE
EXPLOSION.
Facts as Found by Hon. Andrew

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 ILL
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 i.
Every miner in the state should
read it and The Labor Argus has

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

The Missouri Federation of
Labor at its annual 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 FEEDER
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. F. 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.

he is unhappy.

of brutality that you and 1 en-

other fellow who is unconscious of
the nature of the criticism which
they are making of him. 1t would

able to defend, if they should all

industry in 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
Commissioners of Immigration, is
considered unjus to the man who
until few months ago, devoted
his a0hoie time toward bettering the
condition of the miner in this state.
and whose entire interest at this
time in with the miners of this
state.
SNlr. Nugent was seen this morn
ing and III reply to a question con
corning 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 employment Of in.
experienced foreigners in the
mines, knowing as he should that
into West Virginia thousands of
inexperience men direct from Ellis
Island were flooding our mines,
knowing that at no time in the his
tory Of the state when there were
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
'ernor'a :s-H the Mine 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
perienced men in the mines, or
coming to our state for employment.
'In regard to their statement
that the miners Of England were
well verscd as to conditions in
West Virginia, and the impossible
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 l can say is that
I 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.
