AN EFFICIENT OFFICIAL.

The efforts of certain coal oper-
ators to discredit Deputy Mine In
spector William Warner before the
Legislative mine Investigating com
nittee developed some very inter
esting facts which could not be
counteracted by their paid at
torneys who were conducting the
persecution. During the examin-
alton it was brOught.out that In
spector Warner was "too strict" in
the discharge of his duties to suit
the operators, in other words be-
cause he attempted to enforce the
laws as laid down in our statute
books, he had incurred the enmity
OF the aforesaid operators and their
hlrelings, hence the attempt to
humiliate him before the com
mittee. Another reason that Mr..
Warner is being fought by the
corporate interests of the section
OF the state in which he is located
is the fact that at one time he was
an organizer of the United Mine
Workers of America.
Other facts developed at the
same session shows that the min
Ing laws have been violated with
lnpunity and that in many in
stances the mine inspectors have
been interferred with in the dis
charge of their duties, by intimi-
datIOn and have had various OBJ
stacles placed in their way, which
goes to show that the very oper-
atols who are yelling the loudest
for better mining laws are the ones
that now refuse to obey them and
did everything in their power to
dlscredit man who had the hon
esty, courage and determination to
DO his sworn duty.
The methods adopted by the
operators and their agents to place
Mr. Warner in an unfavOrable
light before the committee, failed
slgnally of it's purpose, but on the
"ChcE" hand established the
TACT that he was the most efficient
Inspector on the force and had al
ways done his duty SO far as in his
power to do so.
More inspectors on the force like
MIR. Warner, given the proper
support by our state officials, and
the horrible disasters will be great
ly diminished.

UP TO THE LEGISLATURE.

~ ~ ALL LEUlOLA URE.
The West Virginia Legislature
has about completed the formali-
ties of getting together in extra
session, as called by Governor
Dawson.
The wisdom or lack of wisdom
exercised in assembling the solons
at tins time it is not necessary to
discuss, owing to the fact that they
are assembled, and that if they are
TO go INTO legislation at the expense
OF time and the outlay of public
money they should give the public
Some benefit in return.

on the tax laws and other legisla-
tson as proposed to leave that to
