WHAT MINERS DEMAND

NI:W YORK. y. Y. Mar i.-Fuluw
ing tho initial conference between the
anthracite coal operators and repre-
scut1tiyrS Of tho United Mine Work
rrs Of America 1t became known that
TIE officers Of the union are planning
To- call out 500 oOO hitumnuus and an
turucitc miners If the demands Of the
hard coal workers are not granted.
This would bring about the greatest
coal strik" the United States has ever
known
1t was learned, too, that should the
miners and operators fail to come to
an understanding before midnight OF
March n. then lI5.OOO anthracite work
ors win walk out Of the mines for the
reason that the nine years agreement
made in 1909 will end at that hour and
the contracts existing between the
lah"r"rs ana min" workers viii he au-
dramatically cancelled. This. in erect,
would mean strike in the hard coal
fields and would hr even more effective
than calling out the men. many Of
whom do not belong to the union.

MAY REPEAL SUFFRAGE ACT
Failure of Women to File Campaign
Expenses Renders the Measure
Liable to Withdrawal.

Madison.-RepeaI of the measure
submitting an amendment to the
state constitution providing for
woman's suffrage at the special ses-
sion Of the legislature, may be the
result of the opinion given the secre-
tary of state by Attorney General
Bancroft. This step may be taken be-
cause of the failure of those working
for the passage of the amendment
to file statements of contributions
and expenses of the campaign
According to the opinion of the at
torney general both the suffragettes
and the anti-suffragettes come with
in the corrupt practices law and have
been operating within its provision
for the last six months. The fail
ure to file the required statements
makes the women conducting the
campaigns liable to the penalties of
the law.

MAY PUT WOMAN ON BOARD
Governor Considering Plan for Agri-
cultural Commission Which Will
Br, ak All Precedents.

Madison. - Gov. McGovern an
nounces that he is considering the
naming of a woman as a member of
the state board of agriculture as soon
as the new law on congressional ap-
portionments goes into effect on
April l.
Never in the history of the state
has woman held a position on this
board, and the governor is consider
ing the plan only after having re-
ceived several applications from
women in different parts of the state
He did not say whom he would ap-
point, should he make such a de-
cision, nor whether she would rep
resent district or be member at
large.
Gov McGovern also announced
that he will appoint the successors
to the four members whose term ex-
pired on Jan. 1.

PREDICT POOR CORN CROP
Experts Say Inferior Seed VIII Cause
Small Yield in Western Wis
consin This Season.

New Richmond.-It is predicted
by experts who have made care
ful survey OF the situation that the
1912 acreage of corn in st. Croix and
other western and northwestern
counties of Wisconsin Will not ex-
coed so per cent of that of 1911.
Worthless seed is given as the cause
of the falling off, and the supply of
good, reliable, tested seed has been
exhausted. One hundred INQUIRIES
sent out TO as many raisers of pedi-
greed corn in Wisconsin develops the
fact that their stocks of seed have
all been sold out and there is not
enough left in many instances for
the home demand.
Farmers in Minnesota and the Da-
kotas took practically all of the Wis
consin surplus seed this year. 1t has
been stated by an expert who has
made thorough investigation of the
situation in western Wisconsin that
none of the seed corn that was not
selected, picked and cured as per the
rules of the Wisconsin College OF
Agriculture is worth planting; that
all seed that was not picked before
the corn was cut and shocked and
then cured by artificial heat is
worthless.

PUBLIC OFFICIALS
SALARIES EXEMPT
Are Not Subject to Income Tax
Rules Attorney General.
ASSESSMENT MAY BE MADE
Tax Officials Expected to Disregard
Bancroft's Opinion and Pave Way
for Test of Mooted Question Be
fore Supreme Court.

Madison.-The opinion given by
Attorney General Bancroft that pub
lie salaries are not subject to the
income tax will probably not change
the announced policy of the state tax
commission to assess all such sal
aries.
When the question was first dis
cussed in the newspapers it was
stated by the commission that sal
aries Of public officials would be as
sessed, even those salaries fixed by
the state constitution 1t was ex-
planned that the tax did not neces-
sarily mean reduction Of income,
owing to the many exemptions IN
der the laws and that in many in
stances, no doubt, the total tax paid
by a public official would, therefore,
be less than before
1t is understood, also, that many
public officials, including judges, had
already turned in to the assessors
their income statements. It has also
been argued that a we'll paid public
official would not be likely to invite
the criticism which would certainly
come, if he sought to avoid a tax
which others had to pay

MEXICAN REBELS yICTORS
IN BATTLE WITH FEDERkLS
Forces in Four-Day Fight Near Jim
inez-Many Prisoners
Taken.

Mexico City. Mex. A decisive
battle between Mexican federal
troops and rebels in the vicinity of
Jiminez ended yesterday. This is re
ported from many sources. These re-
ports, however, are contradictory as to
the result. The Mexican government
has received an official dispatch to
the effect that the rebels were routed,
and President Madero in an interview
last night said it meant the breaking
OF the rebel cause. He said rebel
losses in killed and wounded would
reach 900 men
A special dispatch originating at
Torreon sent to Ell impartial at Mex
leo City and bearing evidence of be-
ing authentic, reported that the fed
erals had been defeated and that re-
treating government soldiers were be-
ing modified there
Both reports contain the fact tha&
Gen. Gonzalez Salas, former minister
of war, committed suicide after his
command had been routed In bad
repute, he resigned his portfolio to
take the field. hoping to rehabilitate
himself in the eyes of his country
men.
The government troops have scored
a decisive victory" declared President
Madero. Our latest reports show q
complete defeat of the rebels near
Corralitos. their losses in dead, wound
ed and captured accounting for 1000
of their men. It has been a hard won
victory, but it means the breaking of
the rebel power For the rash act of
Gen. Salas we have only regret 1t
was not necessary"
