CHARLESTON. Oct. IS.-Peace con-
tirues to prevail throughout the coal
fields with more miners who had re-
NAMED in the district returning to
work. while a number Of new men
have been coming in, but even with
these, the miners are several THOUSAND
short of the number necessary TO
properly operate the mines that have
either been forced to close down or
have been perating with but few
men. If present conditions continue
within a week every company of
militia will be at its home station.
The only danger rests in the secur-
ing OF the proper kind Of men as
watchmen to guard property after
the militia has been removed.

But the Doctors Use the Big
Stick and He Must Stay

CHICAGO, Oct. 1s-col ROose-
welt awoke at the Mercy hospital
shortly before Z O'Clock this morn-
ing full of vigor. His nurse
FASTENED to his room and was in
formed that he spent a perfectly
bully night
Shortly after II o'clock last night,
he dropped the book he had been
reading. Mrs. Roosevelt retired to
her room. The lights were put out
and all was quiet until 1880 o'clock
this morning, when his clinical rec
ord was taken, the only time during
the night He fell on to sleep again
and when he awoke felt fine.
Not only he said 80. but he
showed it. His color was fine, his
eyes were bright and his manner
was animated His temperature was
So 2-1O, his pulse 76 and his respira-
ton IS.
Ppm getting anxious to get back
to the Armageddon boys" said Col
onel Roosevelt to his doctors when
they entered his room to make the
morning examination.
The remark epitomized the situa-
ton at the hospital The colonel's
anxiety to get back into the CAM
paign is sharpened by the continued
favorable tones of the bulletins, He
was allowed to- sit up an hour to-
day.
Roosevelt wanted to go on the.
way to oyster Bay Sunday, but DR..
Murphy told him he had better lose
the day now than a week OF a month
later, and Mrs. Roosevelt agreed
with him. the colonel saying, well,
you are all against me; SO I guess
all can do is to protest every time
I have an opportunity. I'll admit

BEN HIMER WANTS
GLOWING REPORTS
Written about His Meetings
Whether They Amount TO
Anything or Not.

Ben II. Hiner wants a press agent.
Not for the purpose OF advertising
himself, of course not, but for the
good Of the cause" He says that the
Republican candidates are too well
adYertised to suit him and expresses
the belief that Dr. Hatfield is not be-
ing greeted by the large crowds and
great enthusiasm that everywhere
meets him. Mr. Hiner. who is a Dem-
ocratic party candidate and spell
binder, would like to adopt the same
methods which he seems TO question,
and secure large audiences and en-
thusiastic plaudits for himself in
Democratic papers remote from the
place of his meeting. And so he sat
himself down and dictated letter
which was probably intended to be
addressed to Democratic news
paper. but which was not. He wrote
under date of October u, 1912, this:
~Dear Sir: During at least two
weeks of the campaign I would like
very much to have our meetings writ
ten M by someone who will go with
me for that express purpose. Not
with any desire, however. OF adver-
Using myself. but for the purpose Of
helping the cause, as have seen that
the publicity that is being given to
Hatfield's meetings is having the
effect of producing the impression
that he is accomplishing more than
he really is. Perhaps, if we could get
the proper notices in the leading
newspapers of the state of the prip-
cfpai meetings that we held in the
last two weeks it would help US to
the extent of oH-setting the impress
sion that is current as to Hatfield's
meetings. 1 have given every day
since the 9th Of September to the cam

home until the day of the election
