The labor argus. [volume] (Charleston, W. Va.) 1906-1915, 1909-01-14

In discussing the first mine dis
aster at Switchback a contributor
to the local press has the following
to say in reference to the coroner's
jury
THE greatest complaint comes
from the fact that the coroner's
jury rendered farcial verdict.
The jury, summoned to investigate
the cause and place the response.
bility for this explosion, failed to
examine the mine inspectors, who
had made through Investigations
OF the interior Of the mine and were
imposition to say whether or not the
law had been violated, but re-
turned a verdict that the cause was
unknown, and then absolved the
company from all blame.'
The above statement simply
bears out the contention of organ.
lied labor that the laws of our
state where the big corporations
are concerned are but farcial and
strengthens the position of labor
in demanding the enforcement of
the present law and the enactment
of an employers Liability Law and

by corporate interests to rob the
toiling masses of the rights guran-
teed them under the constitution.
The enemies of organized labor
in West Virginia have an army of
emissaries throughout the organ

upon the honesty and interigity of
the officials Of the miners organi-
zation. These trouble mongers
should be given a wide berth by
all men who desire to see the or
ganizatiOn maintain foot hold in
this state. The position Of the
officers has been clearly outlined
and their every act is opeu for the
inspection of every member in the
District. Their action in the pres
ent controversy saved repetition
of the Cabin Creek horror of four
years ago when women and child
rem were thrown out into the pub
lie highways by armed thugs en-
ployed by the coal companies and
backed by the administration pow
ers.

workman Is too manly and honest
to be thus mental and vengeful, or
to even approve it.
Every city, manufacturing and
mining district in the county has
its "quarters' of such distributors.
They are not American nor due to
anything American; they are not
the outgrowth of our financial, in
dustrial or other development; like
the unjust and grasping employers
who import and Cypress them,
they do not belong here; they are
out of place and repugnant to
every American; their methods are
Injurious to trade, a menace to
peace and safety, burden to the
country. Our manufacturing CEN
tiers have been made the dumping
ground of the scourings of other
countries as well as our own; all
gathered together to enable GER
tain employers to obtain cheap
labor. Birds of feathers are at
last together, thanks to the grow
ing Incorporation of honest en-
ployers and honest labor through
out the country. The analysis of
the outlawry proves it.. Neither
union employers nor union work
men are involved in any of them.

May Sit Together at The
Foreign Missions
Conference.

EDINBURGH, March 9-Committees
from several nations interested in the
world conference on foreign missions
to be held here in June of next year,
met today to complete plans for the
great assemblage. 1t has been de-
termined that the congress shall be
the most representative ever held in
the Christian world, and it is quite
possible that the Roman Catholic
church will send representatives to
sit with the Protestant representa-
t1ves and together consider the mis-
sionary problems which both great
branches of the Christian church have
to meet
1t is said that in the world are some
5OO.000,000 adherents of Christianity.
and probably twice that number who
have never been brought under Chris
tan influences. 1t is the expectation

MOTORCYCLE RUNS
AWAY WITH RIDER
Country Boy Soon Finds How Il Seer.,s
to Ride a Bicycle That Needs
No Pumping.

| VANCOUVER, Wash, March 9.-Ar
| unknown man let a motor cycle rur
| away with him here yesterday. Capt
Stevens, of the ferry boat on the CO.
lumbia river, was going up the street
with Harold Bristow. of Portland, yes
terday and the latter was wheeling
along his motor cycle. A young man
from the country met the two and
when they stopped to talk a few min
utes he walked up and showed much
interest in the motor cycle. While he
said that he had never ridden one, he
had bought the first bicycle used in
his part of the county.
He asked if he might not take short
rdie, Just to see how it felt to have
bicycle run by itself and no pumping
to do" Bristow said he would let him
ride if he would be careful, so the
country boy climbed on. Giving him
a start to turn the engine around a
few times, Bristow informed him he
was off. They told him that all he
was to give the handle short turn.
Around the block he rode, and when
he had made one circuit, ne was smil-
ing. The machine gained speed, and
when he came around the second time,
the cycle was going so fast that he
was unable to turn the corner, so
struck out Main street into the coun-
try at % miles an hour, with his nair
standing
A yellow dog barely missed being
run over, and the canine stood look
ing with awe at the unusual sight of
the man disappearing in the distance
with his coat sticking straight out be-
hind
Bristow borrowed a bicycle and fol-
lowed out the Main street road and
found the motor cycle leaning up
against a fence nine miles from the
city. The young man who had ridden
it was unable to stop it until the gaso
line was exhausted. When the ma
chine stopped. he climbed off and leav-
in the machine, disappeared Bristow
put the cycle in a farmers wagon and
had him bring it to the city, as ne had
no gasoline with him.

ISLANDERS SEE THE
sUGARED MOUNTAINS
Natives of Guam See OIympics, and
Think They Are Covered With
the Sweet Stuff.

NAVY YARD, Puget Sound, March
9.-Among the crew of the United
States ship Supply, are seven natives
Of Guam who are of the belief that the
Olympic mountains are covered with
powdered sugar and that this. is where
America gets it's source of sugar sup
ply.
The South Sea islanders, who had
spent all their lives in Guam before the
cruise of the Supply to the Bremerton
yard, had never seen or heard Of snow.
When they saw the snow capped Olym-
pic range a few mornings ago they
were awed by the sight, and their
American shipmates, after the
manner of those who go down to the
sea in ships. thought it only proper to
enlighten them in the interest of
science. They therefore informed the
Guamites gravely that the mountain
range visible from the navy yard is
covered with a thick deposit of COM
mercial sugar.
Peculiar complications are expected
to arise in case the brown men find
the deck covered with snow one of
these mornings.

CENSUS IN ONE
DAY IN MEXICO
PREPARATIONS MADE FOR ARo,I1
ONE YEAR, WORK DONE IN
ONE DAY.
October "a Is Next Day and Prepare
tons Are Being Begun In
Neighboring Nation,

CITY OF MEXICO, March 9.-Pre-
parations are being made for taking
the national census of the republic OF
Mexico next year, and according to
plans it is proposed to secure all the
data in one day which has been fixed
for October "a, 1910, but the officials
who will secure the figures will be
given over a year in which to get ac-
quainted with the localities and indi-
viduaIs in their territory, so that when
the time comes there will be no mis-
takes or delays.
The last census taken in 1900 showed
population Of 13,6OL259, of whom
57,58S were foreigners.
The first census to be taken in Mex
leo was in colonial times when Mex
leo was governed by the Count of
Revillagigedo, in 1878, as viceroy of
New Spain. The figures at that time
were approximately 100000.
