quiring those who hold RESPONSE
BILE places about the mines to pass
an examination, and subsequently
the legislature created a school
of mines to equip men for these
responsible positions. Sadly but
truthfully we call attention to
the fact that hardly had this
school begun its important mis-
sion, before conspiracy had been
formed to wipe it out of existence
and now that this conspiracy is
about to take form in the spare
and under the name of the So
called Akin bill, we call upon
the State Federations of labor,
the farmers and mechanics, the
bankers and the professional
men, we call upon all religious,
fraternal, soaial and business Or
ganizations, and we call upon
the newspapers to join with the
miners of this state in making
such campaign against the foul
conspirators, who seek to destroy
our school, that they will hang
their heads in shame when they
think of the dead, the widows
and orphans caused by these
dreadful calamities.
Shall the state, which spends
thousands of dollars to protect
its game, destroy school which
seeks to protect human life? Let
the people of this state with one
accord, petition the Governor and
Board of Affairs to carry out the
will of the legislature by expend-
ing few huddrfd dollars, now
in the treasury, in installing the
thousands of dollars worth of
machinery purchased for this
school but never set up, to the
end that the school may in ear
nest carry on the work for which
it was created.

SECTION HAND
BEING TREATED
FORBROKENLEG
DR.. C. w. D'ALEMBERTE WAS
CALLED TUESDAY NIGHT AND
ADMINISTERED A NARCOTIC TO
INSURE REST.

Silas Jones the negro section hand
who was brought to the city on train
No. 2 Tuesday morning and turned
over to the police with a broken leg,
sustained while disembarking from a
train between Cantonment and Fiona
ton Monday night, was treated for his
injuries at the police station early
yesterday morning by County Physic-
ian c. w. D'Alemberte. He was-later
removed to the home of friends on
North Tarragona street.
Jones states that he was employed
by the Louisville & Nashville Railroad
Company as a section hand at Fiona
ton; that he boarded train at Fiona
ton on Monday night to come to Can
tohment for the purpose of getting
some clothes; that in jumping from
the train while in motion near Can
Torment he fell, sustaining a fracture
of the leg, below the knee. Unable to
walk, he crawled to the station al
Cantonment, and when train No. ar
rived was taken aboard by the train
crew and brought to the city. Here
he was turned over to the police sta
ton, and taken to the station.
DR.. F. G. Renshaw, the local physic-
ian of the L. & N. was notified. but
after hearing the injured mans state
ment of the cause of his injuries, de-
cllned TO treat him until the matter
had been referred to the claim agent
Of the railroad company. This func-
tiopary of the railroad finally made
ar investigation, with the result that
at a late hour Tuesday evening DR.
Renshaw finally declined to treat the
man.
The case was clearly not one for at
tention by the city physician, nor one
forethe attention of the county physic-
ian, but Chief of Police Sanders, realiz-
ing that the man required surgical at
tention, referred the case to DIR. Alem-
berte, who responded promptly to the
call. Finding the negro asleep in the
hospital ward at the police station
Tuesday night, he administered a mar
cotic to insure his comfort through the
night, and at an early hour yesterday
morning set his limb, and. as stated
above, had him removed to the home
of friends.
