INSURGENTS AND DEMOCRATS.

Democrats should be wise as ser
pents and harmless as doves as the
good book teaches them, in their deal
ings with the insurgents. This IS the
more necessary because the insurgents
are constantly declaring that they be-
lieye in the policy of protection, and
that Is not democratic. Real tariff re.
form and protection do not go hand
in hand These insurgents are also
making their fight for supremacy in
their own party, and If they win they
will be the opponents of the demo
Gratis. There are insurgents and near
insurgents and the latter, it will be
remembered, very constantly voted
with the republican machine and for
measures that the democrats and the
real insurgents felt compelled to op-
pose
In the strong republican states
there is, Of course, a. strong Incentive
for democrats to join with the insur-
gents to beat the regular republicans.

COMING
AGREEMENTS NEAR
OPERATORS AND MINERS NEAR.
ING AN AGREEMENT - MINES
MAY REOPEN.

Kansas City, Aug. 25-It appears
probable tonight that coal operators
and miners of the southwest viii on
tomorrow arrange to resume nego'
uatlons for the settlement of the
coal strike in their field.
Immediately after the indianapolis
convention had been closed p. r.
Stewart, Alexander Howatt and Chas.
Battley, representing Districts 81, "a
and . respectively, of the miners, or
ganizdtlon OF the southwestern field,
made advances TO the operators for a
resumption of negotiations for a set
Element of the strike. The operators
executive committee was called &c
gether here to consider the matter
ana tonight the following commuli
cation was sent to the repres ent2-
thes of the miners:
I'VE agree TO pay the full Cincin-
matt increase, provided negotiations
are taken up at the point whore
they were broken Off, which means
that all the conferees who were
working shall resume negotiations,
and everything shall be ratified and
adop.ed that has heretofore been
agreed to between all of said con
ferees. and that an effective con
tnultion clause shall be written
into the contract. providing for con
tinuance of work at the expiration
of the same"
ms communication remains
further concession on the part of the
operators. The Cincinnati increase
referred to provides a 555 per cent
increase on dead work, yardage and
day work, a three-cent tonnage in
crease on run OF mine coal and a
five.cent tonnage Increase on lump
coal When negotiations were broken
off two weeks ago the operotors had
agreed to the day work on the ton
mage Increases but not to the yard
age and dead work increases.
The operators are especially anx-
ious that the effective continuation
cause shall be included in the new
contract. If one is made. Such
clause would give the companies
control of their working forces, keep
the miners at work pending the ar
bitration of disputes and after an
old contract had expired and new
one was in the course of construc-
ton. Miners representatives express
ed the opinion tonight that an an
swer favoring the resumption of ne
gotiations would be forthcoming to
morrow.

Other new buildings under construc-
