strike benefits only in the case of a

Of these local unions. The balance,
$33,345.sO. is in the general fund. OF
that fund only 17,545O1 is available

Rule. Paul was mighty agitator,
and he had for company the
brotherhood of the Apostles.
Garrison was an agitator when he
protested against human slavery,
and he was rotten-e gged and had
many narrow escapes for his life.
The reader of history is aware that
wherever tyranny has reigned,
wherever right has risen up to
overthrow the wrong the agitator
his always first got in his work.
1t is the agitator that always leads
and. swings aloft the hammer of
the truth. The agitator is the
man who is not content with
things as they are, but desires to
improve them. He is the man
who believes in progress and longs
for better things and higher ideals.
1t is no wonder that wrongdoers in
high places, that corrupt corpo-
ration anu unprincipled politicians
decry and misrepresent the agi-
tator. They. know what his work
means, aud if the people were
wise denunciations from such a
Sourre should be the best certifi-
cate of character. To the people
who have such holy and un-
reasonable dread of the agitator we
might remark that there is one
country where there are no agi-
tators, and which is known as
China. China is the stagnated
pool where all is calm and repose
and where no turbulent life-given
stream distnrbs and agitates the
never changing surface. What
China is, Chrlstendom would be
but for the agitator, who dares to
speak out and protest against I'M
just conditions. Thank God,
reader, that you live in land
where the agitator is possibility.
Don't forget the agitation is an
unfailing indication of life.
Where there is no agitation there
is death-Clothing Trades Bulletin.

MINERS LEADERS
REPLY TO CHARGE
Executive Board Says An
thracite Operators Should
Recognize the Union.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, March o.
The statement OF the anthracite opera
tors given out at New York, in which
they charge that the miners union has
not lived up 20 the award of the strike
commission Of 1892, probably will bring
no reply from President Lewis. Of the
miners
President Lewis said today that there
IS really nothing to be said at this time.
The statement Of the operators com
mittee, however, was fully discussed
Dy the international executive board,
which is now in session here. The
charge by the operators that the union
IS merely tool Of the bituminoEs oper-
ators by which the bituminous opera
tors hold the whip-hand over the an
thracite markets, and thus control che
coal industry OF America, is an old
one. II was made frequently in 1901
and 1902 when John Mitchell was iesd-
ing the great anthracite strike. T'h,e
fact that the bituminOuS miners rn9de
II possible at that time for the am
thTacite miners to remain out and win,
mas always caused a resentment toward
the bituEinous miners
The leaders of the miners in state
ments today made il clear that the two
branches of the Dig organizatiOn-the
anthracite and bituminOus miners-will
never be separated, as demanded by the
anthracite operators and President
ROOseVelI'S strike commission. They
argue that there is as much reason why
the anthracite operators should recog-
niZe the union as why the bituminous
operators should and the latter have
found It TO their advantage to deal vi h
the union
