GOVERNORS PLAN
COMES TO NAUGHT
Miners Accept the Same But
the Coal Operators
Reject 1t.

CHARLESTON. Sept. is - The
reply Of the United Mine Workers OF
America, district II. today to the
request OF Governor William E.
Glasscock made on Saturday that
they submit their differences to a
board of arbitration is as follows:
After careful consideration of
your proposition for arbitration we
have decided to accept the same.
There are some changes we
would like to have made, but by
doing this we realize that the propo-
s!tion would not be yours, and since
we fully believe you have only the
interest OF both parties to this I'M
fortunate controversy at heart and
in the interest of peace and harmony
as well as the public good, we agree
upon our part to accept the condi-
tons lad down in the proposition
you have submitted to us for our
consideration"
1t is signed by Thomas Cairns,
president, and Il. NJ. Cra'go, secre-
tary of district II.
While the miners accepted Gov
ernor Glasscock's proposition to sub
NIT their differences to a board OF
arbitration the Kanawha coal oper-
ators refused. They have always re-
fused to arbitrate any of their diff
ferences with their men. AS a re-
suit of this action. Governor Glass
cock announced that he would. call
a general meeting of the miners,
coal operators and business organi-
cations of the state, to meet in the
capitol Saturday, September 81. for
the purpose of devising some means
to put an end to the difficulty.
Failure to bring about a settle
ment through arbitration is ex-
pected to have serious effect on the
present peaceful status in the coal
fields. Conservative men predict a
general strike both in union and
non-union fields.

Recognition Seems ) Be tl,e
Bone of Contention in
Strike Zone.

CHARLESTON, Sept. ids the
wage question or the recognition of
the union, the principal contention
between the miners of Paint and
Cabin creeks?
The operators have been declaring
that they have been operating their
mines at a loss, and in some in
stances this is known to be true. but
from the testimony of President
Thomas CAIRNS, of the United Mine
Workers. the recognition of the
union was considered more import
ant than the increase in wages de-
manded by the miners in their orig
inal proposition before the first OF
April.
President Cairns testified: eve
offered to give the operators the
same scale of wages which was
paid for the two years from April /.
1910, to April j. 1912; the same
rate, if they would give full recog-
milton of the union, including the
check-off. Rather than do that they
granted US an increase of 2. IL
cents on pick mining and / 1-2
cents on run of mine coal over what
was demanded. They preferred to
pay the increase rather than grant
the check-off system"
