MINERS CONVENTION
OPEN TO THE PUBLIC.

Denver, Colo, July 14.-For the
first time in the history of the org
anization, the convention of the West
ern Federation ofMiners was thrown
open to the entire public today, and
all the sessions until the final adjourn
ment will be public. President Chas.
H. Meyer made his annual report and
address this afternoon. While some
of the strikes during the last year
resulted in gaining better conditions
for the miners, Meyer said the strike
on the Mesaba range was unwise and
premature and resulted in complete
defeat of the miners and destruction
of every local union in the district.
The sending of Federal troops to
Goldfeld, New, last fall by President
Roosevelt was condemned in strong
language.
Referring to the relations between
the Federation and Industrial Work
ers of the World, President Meyer
expressed the belief that industrial
unionism had not proven popular and
was not wanted by the working class
es of this country. hope for the
acquitta1 of Steve Adams of a muir
der charge at Grand Junction was
expressed.
Abiding to the injunction plank in
corporated in the national Democrat
ic platform, Meyer said: when we
remember that Federal judges in
their Interpretation of laws have vest
ed supreme power in the executive
of the state and that no court may
inquire into his acts and when, as

A Curious Argument.

The article in this issue from
leading educational journal is publish
ed partly as curiosity, and parity
for not only the thought 1t contains
but stimulus it may give to thought
in the readers. The "Parson" may dis
icuss the subject from another view
point tomorrow. His chief idea is that
if the teachers think so poorly OF
their own profession as to permit
such discussions in their own educa-
tional publications, they are them
selves partly to blame for the public
getting wrong impressions of the dig
nifty and usefulness of teaching.
