COAL MINES ARE
RUNNING AGAIN

Miners returned to work We'd
nesday morning, and all of the
mines of the Northwestern I'M
provement company have been
working since.
At monster mass meeting OF
the mines held at No. Sunday af-
ternoon and attended by at least
1,5OO, the miners voted almost I'M
animously to return to work pend
ing the decision of the 1nterna-
tional Board. NJ. F. Purcell, in
ternational organizer, was present,
and in rousing speech advised the
miners to take the advise of Presl-
dent White, and return to work as
their action did not have the sane
ton of the National board,
On Monday morning the y. w.
I. Company posted the following
notices: You have a telegram
from National President White,
instructing You to 90 to work, and
any grievance YOU may have Will
be adjusted by the National organ
/ ization when they arrive on the
ground. We nave a similar tele-
gram from White asking us to al
low YOU to work ON these condi-
tons. Both partie, are to stand
by the decision of the National
+ board, and after fully investigating
the matter, if they decide certain
parties are guilty. of breaking
the contract in shutting the
mines down, they are to be dis
charged, and if the board decides
that our contract provides for as
closed shop, their decision will be
followed, but in the meantime the
mines are to be operated as before
the strike.
Work was begun Monday to get
the mines in shape for work, the
mules were brought back from the
valley and when the whistle blew
"Wednesday morning, everything
had resumed its normal condition
and certainly relieved a great stain
on the merchants and business
men of the city, as it is certain if
the idleness had continued very
much longer it would have caused
a great deal of suffering in the city.
