UNITED MINE WORKERS.
President Mitchell Wants no Further
Office,

ShiSCs
Indianapolis. Mitchell an
nounced to the convention OF the
United Mine Workers of America Mon
day that he did not desire to hold any
ofice in the organization after his re-
tirement as president April LIST. This
will stop a movement to have him
placed at the head of an advisory
board.
He asked that his friends give their
loyal and undivided support to his sue
cessor. saying:
while l have been president. l
have been president in fact as we'll as
in name and my successor will have
the same opportunities to carry out his
policies"
w. d. Haywood. secretary-treasurer
of the Western Federation Of Miners.
addressed the convention. He attrib-
uted all of the strikes and troubles In
the Western lead, coal and gold mines
to the operators failure to keep their
contracts with the miners.
He charged the operators with the
destruction of property by the use OF
explosives. in order to prejudice pub
lie opinion and lay the blame On the
miners. He painted graphic pictures
of 1.-The bull pens" established by the
state and military authorities. which
he said have been subservient to the
operators.
Colorado" he said. lis as mean as
all the other states boiled down. Cor
porations control the courts there, de-
bauch the Legislature and run the cleo
tions to suit themselves"
Mr.. Haywood pleaded for closer
relationship between the Western
Federation OF Miners and the Mine
Workers of America. He asked not
only for the financial support Of the
United miners but for moral support
as we'll. He asked that all coal min
ers have their contracts expire at the
same time, so they can give each other
mutual support.
President Mitchell addressed the
convention after Haywood closed. He
declared himself to be opposed to SYM
pathetic strikes.
II have watched labor troubles and
conditions as closely as any man." he
said, land have not seen any benefit
accrue from sympathetic strikes.
Should the Western Federation Of
Miners ask us to go on strike to aid
their strike, we would ask naturally
What will we get out of 1t? What good
will accrue to us? l do not see that it
would do us any good to have the met
alliferous miners on a strike If we
coal miners were out on a strike. Coal
can be mined when gold miners are
not working, but gold cannot be mined
II there is no coal"
Mr.. Mitchell admitted that in ex-
IRENE cases sympathetic strikes would
materially assist in the accomplish
ment Of labor purposes and in such
cases he would advocate 1t. He
thought closer relationship should ex-
list between the Mine Workers and the
Western Federation Of Miners and sug-
gested a commission to define what
these relation should be.
Mr.. Mitchell urged the miners to
continue the contract system.

drifting along from bad to worse,
