DWIGHT PLEASED OVER PRO.
GRESS BEING MADE IN THE
PRESENT SESSION.
CLARK'S EXPLANATION
Is That Republicans Are Passing Ap-
preparations so as to go Home
and Campaign For
Elections.

Washington, Feb 4.-"Never in
years has any session of congress
done as much work as the present
one" said Representative Dwight, of
New York, Republican house whip, IN
statement today.
Congress has been in session less
than six weeks and has passed the
army and urgent deficiency, District
of Columbia and agricultural appro-
priation bills. The house thus far
has fully fulfilled the presidents
pledges and the leaders of both
branches of congress, that strictest
economy be followed. We also re.
deemed two pledges of the party plat-
form by passing bill to establish A
bureau of mines and mining, and to
admit Arizona and New Mexico"
Dwight added that no Republican in
the house had been disposed to retard
the passage of the presidents bills
regarding conservation, antitrust law,
and railroad law amendments.
Continuing Dwight said: "Taft's
specific recommendations regarding
conservation, amendments of the
Sherman law and the Hepburn rail
road rate law, did not come to con.
gress until after January s. These
regulations are now in the hands Of
committees which have been working
overtime in consultation with the
president and attorney general, but
at the earliest possible moment the
bills will be drafted and reported.
Other important bills are ready to
be reported.
There has been shown thus far no
disposition by any Republican in the
house to retard passage of any Of
these measures. The criticism that
congress is slow in acting is without
foundation and unfair
Champ Clark, Democratic leade~,
commenting upon Dwights statement,
said; What the Republicans are
really going to do is pass a few ap-
preparation bills, some bridge bills,
private claims, one or two of the Taft
propositions, then adjourn; get home
as quick as possible to save as many
Republican congressman this fall as
they can, but they have not the slight
est hope in the world uof electing an
other Republican house of represen,
tatives."

ORGANIZATION
NOT EFFECTED
AND WAGE CONFERENCE AT TO.
LEDO ADJOURNED YESTER-
DAY. SINE DIE.
BLAME WAS DIVIDED
Miner Delegate Moved Adjournment

Toledo, Feb. 4-tInable to effect an
organization because of the deadlock
over the admission of the miners dele
gates from Illinois, the joint wage
conference of btuminous coal opeM
ators and miners of Ohio, Indiana and
Pennsylvania adjourned tonight sine
die.
No provision was made for another
meeting. This, it is declared, does
not necessarily mean suspension OF
work at the expiration Of the present
contract, April 1. A suspension would
effect all bituminous districts con
trolled by the United Mine Workers
as they decreed at the indianapolis
convention that no district can sign
a wage scale until scales for all dis
tricts are negotiated
Both sides declared, however, that
they won't recede on the Illinois
proposition. Some plan may be
evolved to get the miners and oper-
|ators together again before April I.
What this will be, neither President
Lewis nor the leading operators could
say tonight 1t may be call for an
|other convention to represent a scale
committee.
Lewis hopes that some adjstment
will be made before April l. and said
he had certain plans, but would not
say what they were. meeting Of
the international executive board of
the miners is called here for tomor-
row morning.
The night session was brief As
nobody had anything to say the futil,
ity of continuing the session was eX-
pressed. His suggestion for dividing
the responsibility for adjournment
was followed. A delegate from the
miners moved to adjourn and one
from the operators seconded it, A call
by states resulted in the only unani-
nous vote recorded at today's meet
ing.
The miners and operators had pre-
viously struggled all day unsuccess-
fully to reach an organization for a
conference When the convention
this afternoon reached the point
where it was able to organize, Lewis,
who is temporary presiding officer
said there appeared to be nothing To
do but adjourn.
Neither side appearing willing to
take the initiative of the adjournment,
speeches were made, and finally the
operators and delegates began talking
among themselves. This continued
until recess.
The miners, at subsequent execu-
tive session, decided to seek ad-
journment tonight, as a means of eX.
Treating the conference from the
deadlock The deadlock resulted
when the miners refused to agree to
the seating of the delgates from other
states unless the Illinois miners were
included. The rules require unani-
nous vote on each proposition.
The operators stood firm on the
ground that the Illinois operators had
notified both parties that they would
not be bound by any agreement
reached here.

THE big BROTHER MOVEMENT
Idea That Had Its Inception in New
York City Has Resulted in
Much Good.


The Big Brother" movement, which
started in New York city, has proved
so successful that it is being organized
i'll other cities. The idea practicable
wherever there are men who are in
terested in boys who have gone wrong
or are In danger Of going wrong, and
boys who thus need help 1t calls for
no organization, and the town is as
fruitful field as the city. 1t SIM
ply means the adoption of the idea by
a man who is in earnest. r. X. Coul-
ter of New York, is the father of the
movement, which there works in con-
junction with the juvenile courts.
Each man takes as his special "little
brother" boy whose environment
tends to drag him downward. He in.
vites him to his home, and visits the
boys home from time to time. shows
him something better than he has
known, or could know without this
friendship; wins his confidence. and
uses every means to awaken higher
ideals. Mr.. Coulter says: There is
nothing boy likes better than some
friend older and Of higher position. to
whom he can look for help. If at any.
time you can give boy of the street
ten minutes of your time, or can visit
him for quarter Of an hour at his
home, to talk seriously and encour-
agingly to him. you are doing that boy
good. That is the principle underly.
