OPTIMISTIC STATEMENT

Given the American Miner, Because 1t

OF the United Mine Workers, issued
a statement tonight. in part as for

THE prospects for set

tween now and the first of April will
be based entirely on the willingness
of the operators to grant an advance
lin wages An advance is due and a
settlement can not be reached unless
lit is conceded
ITO me the outlook ii not in any

| to optimistic nature on my part.
idon't believe in encouraging or TO-
lmenting trouble, neither is IL wise
unnecessarily to alarm the people.
ITO my Judgment the miners Of the
country will be at work on and after
the first of April, and the wage con-
tract will carry with it substantial
increase for the miners all over the
country.

which was not organized because the
operators were unwilling that the
Illinois miners participate In the alb
sence of the Illinois operators, al.
iourned with the very best of feeling
on the part of the operators and min
ers There were no arrangements
made for holding another joint con.
ference. In my opinion another con
vention will be held piror to April
first. II Is well known that the min.
ers' wages are much higher than
1897, but 1t is also well known, to
those who understood the situation,
that wages have not advanced in tho
same proportion to the increased cost
of living, ~-,~s.a-
The occupation of mining is the
most dangerous of any of the wage
earners. The death rate in the mines
OF this country is twice as great as
in any other In Europe the occupd-
tion Of the miner Is more dangerous,
as the deeper mines generate the
greatest volume Of gas and fire damp,
The United States is able to fur
nish better safety appliances at less
cost than any country in the civilized
world. This is a reflection upon the
law making powers, and their In,
ability or failure to enact measures
necessary to protect the health and
lives of the miner is our national dis
grace.
There is no doubt that the mine
lowners would furnish more efficient
lsafety appliances IL 1t were not for
competition in industries and rail
roads to compel operators to furnish
materials to railroads at practically
cost 1t is a well known fact that

EXPERTS INVESTIGATED

Washington, Feb. Fire, stolen
from heaven by premetheus, accord
ing to the ancient Greek mythology
and as a blessing brought by him to
earth in hollow reed after Zeus had
deprived mankind of it, levies upon
Americans each year an enormous tax
calculated by United States govern

half dollars a day and LAO lives
a year. AS a result OF an investiga-
tion just concluded by officials of the
United States Geological survey it
has been ascertained that cheaper
fireproof materials can be used to
advantage in construction. that three
to six times the necessary amount of
material Is habitually used In struc-
tural work in the United States, that
the building codes are laxly enforced,
that the fire loss in the United States
is eight times as much per lapita as

the great fire waste in the United

dominence of frame buildings and to
defective construction and equip

will be a surprise TO everyone, too
to learn that not one cent Of insur-

on these valuable buildings. lnsur-
ance at the ordinary rate would cost
more than half million dol'ars a

Washington, Feb. 1.-THE necessity
for the passage at the present session
OF congress OF good laws for the pro-

keynote OF a report TO the National

recently chosen president. Pinchot

relating to tile conservation Of nat

in behalf Of Balinoer.
Pinchot urges the enactment Of one
of these, namely the bill on = ~. a.

The coal bill, he objects contains

With good COWS and good business

priced lands, if the milk is paid for
at a price commensurate with other

is shifted to cheaper and more remote
lands where it is harder to supervise,
and the difficulties of transportation
