that Mr.. Ballinger, while commissioner
of the land office, took an active part
in the controversy and investigation
which arose as to the validity of the
Alaska coal lands, and, by ordering
some of the claims to patent, acquired
knowledge of importance.
He personally acted and took part
in action of the department relating to
the investigation of these claims, which,.
we assert, were fraudulent tsi''
This having been the case, when he
ceased to be commissioner he took the
position as counsel for Some of these
claimants"
Senator Sutherland of Utah inter-
ruted: "You do not claim that Balm
ger acted corruptly as commissioner.
but that he made improper use of the
information which he had obtained?"
"That is not ALL" replied the attor-
ney. 1.-THE fact that he acted at all
with reference to the continuance OF
the contest was not consistent with the
highest conduct Of an officer of the
government"
''Then you claim he acted corruptly
or improperly" asked Senator Suther-
land.
Eyes, improperly; that he acted with
out regard to the interest Of the gov
eminent while commissioner. Also that
he acted improperly afterward in taxi
ing employment from the claimants
who had been before him as commits
sioner"
1--WE claim that Ballingers action"
he continued, "as 1t was reported, was
improper in his failure to investigate
thoroughly the Alaska claims.''

GREAT STRIKE OF
MINERS PLANNED
BlTUMIN0US COAL WORKERS
THREATEN ACTION
President of Organization Warns Dis
trict Unions to Sign No Wage
Scale Until Uniformity Is
Secured
Associated Pressl

INDIANAPOLIS, Jan. ga general
strike of the miners of the bituminous
coal fields of the United States and
Canada will be called if the mine OPP
orators of all or of any of the districts
refuse to sign contracts granting an
increase of wages, according to decla-
rations today of many leaders in the
convention of the United Mine Work
ers of America.
President Lewis, in discussing the
proposition of some of the leaders that
the entire delegate body should go to
Toledo next week for the wage confer
ence with the operators of Ohio, In
diana and western Pennsylvania.
urged that wage contracts should not
be signed by any districts Of the union
until all should have obtained from
the mine operators uniform increase
of wages.
Duncan Mcdonald, president of the
Illinois district, one of the anti-Lews
leaders, heartily Endorsed Lewis in his
announced plan to make the strike
general If a strike became necessary
in any district.
Urges Ultimatum
Francis Feehan, president of the
western Pennsylvania district, said
his conviction was that the organiza
tons should issue an ultimatum that
a strike in all districts would be called
on April 1 If an increase of wages of
more than 10 per cent were not
granted.
President Lewis introduced a resolu-
ton that the miners should continue at
work until after the expiration Of the
present wage contract, March 81, until
new contract was signed or a strike
was called and that no definite date
for strike be set at this convention.
A plan was adopted for a working
agreement between the coal miners
and the Western Federation of Miners
1t provides that the Western FEEDER
alton shall re-enter the American Fed
Grafton of Labor and generally looks
to final amalgamation of the organ
lied metal and coal miners of North

COLONEL ROOSEVELT AND THE
SUPREME COURT.

Having declared his intention OF
mauling the corporations and the
MOI into orderly submission, Col
onef Roosevelt, now is on the trail
OF the Supreme Court of the United
States. Certain decisions of the
oouDtry's highest tribunal, the colonel
asserts, threaten the very foundations
of our democratic form Of govern
ment. He thinks, however, that these
decisions are so obviously wrong that
they will be reversed before they re-
suit In any irreparable harm.
The colonel's speech at Denver
Monday should serve to remind us
of how thankful we should be that
the various vacancies on the Supreme
Court which PRECEDENT Taft has or
will be called upon to fill did not
occur during Roosevelt's term of Of
fee. Mr.. Taft has been a failure as
president, however successful he may
have been as a jurist; he has demon
strated that he is poor statesman
and no politician at all, and II has
been made plain that he, together
with the Republican national 0rgani-
cation, is so closely affiliated with the
monied interests that he could not
make the governmental reforms SC
sadly needed by the country II he
would But in spite of all this We
believe that the President is emf
nently better fitted to choose
Supreme Court judges than his pre-
Gecessor.
Colonel Roosevelt does not hesitate
to criticise the highest court in The
land Unfortunately because he /:
without respect for anybody or any
thing. He respects the constitution
Of the United States no more thar
he does the members OF the cour
he criticises. He would amend tn.
constitution just as quickly as h
wonld amend an ordinance adopted b.
city council, and. what Is worse
when there is no time to secure al
amendment he will ignore any oh
jee3ionsble constitutional provision
His record proves that he does no
believe in allowing a constitution 4
interfere with MY policies" That /
why he is the most dangerous ma
