Gets Into Trouble We'd
nesday.

Sam Hunter who lives on the Mud
dy Creek pike about one mile from

charge of passing a cold check on

fore Judge Pendleton and upon the
request of Mr.. Pruitt, he made good
the amount received and was re-
leased from fuIthet prosecution.
Hunter when brought into the po-
lice court room showed signs of be-
ing up against the trouble that one
experiences when he partakes Of too
much red lemonade and then starts
out on ramble on the icy streets,
such as they are today. He was
slightly under the influence of liquor
and had badly bruised eye that he
sustained by falling.

UNION men DISCUSS
WRIGHT'S DECISION
Important Conference at Wash
ingtOn Today.

Washington, Jan. 19.-Every phase
Wright in the contempt proceedings
and the appeal therefrom will be
considered at conference here to-
day between the executive council of
the American Federation now in ses-
sions and of counsel in the case, in
GLIDING Judge Alton B. Parker of
New York.
The most important action of the
executive councils session was the
selection of a committee to consider
and report to the council upon the
appeal of the three labor leaders in
the contempt case. This committee
is composed of Presidents Duncan
and O'Connell and Treasurer Lennon.
The position of organized labor re-
garding the Sherman antitrust act a..
interpreted by the supreme court Of
the United States was discussed,
with a view to combining the fea-
lures of the Wilson and Pearre bills
into one measure, which would in
substance, it was stated, place the
labor movement in this country in a
similar position to labor in Great
Britain
Consideration also was given to a
suggestion of weekly publication,
''in not only the interest of labor but
for the protection of the constitu-
tional right of free press and free
speech" and it was decided to hold
a conference with the parties making
the proposition.

one HUNDRED
Miners KILLED
Lick Branch Gallery Scene of Second
HOrrOr-ExpIOsiOn Was
Terrific.

Bluefield, W. Va, Jan IS. Again
the earth trembled and that unknown
substance in which there is more
deadly energy and destruction to the
atom than in tons of dynamite let go
in the mines of the Lick Branch col
liery and snuffed out one hundred
lives. 1t was in the same mine
where, two weeks ago to a day, so
miners were killed by a similar ex-
plosion.
Without warning there came like
the sound of thunder a mighty rum
bling in the earth, which reverber-
ated along the miles of corridors and
air passages crowded with those who
worked there. Above the tons of
earth and stone that lay between the
workings and the mountains crown
gianTstrees Quivered from the force of
the conclusion, and from the mine
mouth the forces of the earth set
free belched forth a cloud of flame,
SCOT. dust and debris, heavy timbers,
broken mine cars and even a massive
motor used to haul the heavy-laden
cars from the depths.
Scarcely had the defamation died
away before a throng of terrorized
women and children rushed to the
mine mouth and implored those there
to allow them to aid in the effort to
save some of their loved ones who
might still be alive within. Mine
Foreman Bowers, who was near the
entrance, was blown from his feet,
but managed to crawl out safely, as
did also Robert Smith. miner. With
the foreman was a miner named Hol-
liday, and he too was blown over.
A rescue party, organized in the
moment, rushed into the smoking
mines and tried to rescue him. They
were driven back by the fumes of
the after-gases and were compelled
to leave him to his fate. A train was
rushed from this city to the scene of
the disaster, some % miles away,
carrying bratticing and other mater
ial to be used in the work of explora-
tion and rescue.
The debris from the explosion of
two weeks ago had not been cleared
away, and 20 men were engaged in
this work Nineteen contract miners
with their crews we're at work in a
new entry, and it is feared that all
of these men were lost
The rescue party came in sight OF
six bodies. but was forced back That
all of the entombed men are dead
there can be no doubt. The fire in
the mine and the deadly gases, to
say nothing OF the awful force of the
explosion, precludes any chances OF
rescuing any of the men alive.
The main entry of the mine is four
miles long, running from one side OF
tie mountain to the other. Debris was
blown from both entries, which gives
some idea of the tremendous force OF
the explosion.
1t is reasonably certain that many
of the. bodies will never be ,recov
cred. Some of them were blown tc
pieces and others incinerated, nc
doubt. The fans which furnish the
fresh air for the workings, as in the
former explosion, were not disabled
and are forcing fresh air into the
mines,

"Bob' Writes Again.

Mr.. Editor:-In our neighborhood

musket and followed Lee from 1861
until the 18th day of May 1864 when
he was taken prisoner and held until
the close of the war. Since then he
has raised four boys. One has died
leaving the old confederate soldier
three fine boys; and now in his de-
Ginning days, he has been made
sad by seeing the youngest boy, who
became Fl years Of age some time in
1908 debarred the privilege to regis

Mr.. Editor, it seems to me that l
have heard it said, ''No white gentle
man would ever be disfranchised.'
Though perhaps | am mistaken as to
that. This reminds me Of a little in
cident which occurred some years
back. A colored fellow failed to
work on the road when ordered to
do so. He was tried and committed
to jail. The darby sent for MIR.
Moore who was then a prominent
attorney in Halifax. Mr.. Moore
said to the negro, George what are
you doing in jail?" 'I'm here be-
cause failed to work the roads," he
said. why George, they can't put
you in Jail for not working the road"
"But, Mr. Moore, Pm in here and the
trouble with this negro is he wants
to know how to get out, said George.
Now the trouble with these two boys
is if they are not disfranchised how
shall they get to vote.
Mr.. Editor, it did not take us long
to get rid Of the negro vote, and if
other sections get along as fast as
this one we will not be long in get
ting rid of these young men who are
just becoming Il. Especially those
who had no granddaddy. Well,
what next? | will have to wait and
see.
