This Is The Burden Of Address
On United Mine Workers

(By Associated Press.)

Indianapolis, Ind. Jan. 21.-Deplor-
ing the unprecedented loss of life in
the mines of America in 1908 and
1903, Edwin Perry, secretary reasur-
er Of the United Mine Workers of
America, declared in the convention
today that. mot until the function of
protecting life is placed where 1t
rightfully belongs. namely, on the O..

Continuing, he said November

known in history, occurred at Cherry,

we as nation, boast of our progress
and development, but are compelled

a secondary consideration as far as
this important industry is concerned.

In many cases it is specifically stated
that the needles should not be used

should be observed. Not to follow
them means almost certain damage

be kept well oiled: otherwise its mo-

Lieutenant Shackletol tells how
when in the antarctic wastes he and
his companions sustained their spirits
and their bodies us well when sup
plies had to be cut down to mini
mum by dwelling upon the glorious
eating they would have ON returning
to headquarters. The value of such
mental sustenance has long been rec.
ogniZed by up to date commanders.
There was the German officer in the
war of 1870 who sustained the flag
ging spirits and weary legs of his men
by shouting: There is II brewery in
side that town. Let vs. get there be-
fore anybody else History relates
that the men did get there with re.
markable speed. Equally shrewd was

A Liability Law.

Not only should our laws provide
every necessary safeguard. but what
is of infinitely more Importance would
be a liability law wherein the mine
owners would be held responsible for
injuries and loss of life.

vention should go on record in favor
of the remedial legislation in the sew

now surround subterranean toilers In
this connection, he made three sug-

gress law that will tax every ton of

less as result of the mine accidents,
and those injured and MANNED should
also become beneficiaries of this
fund. Secondly, this convention
should emphasize our position of for

A number Of members of the Ma

on the evening Of St. Johns day, De-
cember q. An enjoyable time was
spent, and the jovial party adjourned
shortly after midnight. A spread OF
seasonable delicacies was furnished at
the Peerless cafe. Another meeting
will take place during the ensuing
month Of January, or February at the
latest.
A proclamation could legalize Mon
day as a holiday, but no stroke Of pen
had the power to put the Christmas
spirit in the people, and hence Mon
day was a tame affair in this commu-
nifty, viewed in the light of a holiday.
A number of the stores did close in the
afternoon, and the banks did not open
their doors at all, but otherwise the
day was very much similar to any
other week day during the year.

The marriage took place in the parlor

for the purpose, and considering the
ruling price of eggs and fowl the year
around, and the limited supply, the
venture should be both pleasant and
profitable.
