10000 MINERS RECEIVE
COMMAND TO STRIKE
Workers in Anthracite Field Ordered
TO Suspend-Soft Coal Strike
is AVerted.

Cleveland, Ohio.-The first step to-
ward stoppage in coal production IN
the United States as result OF the
miners wage disputes was taken, when
the union ordered 10000 miners In
the anthracite regions Of Pennsylvan-
ia to quit work.
The shutting down of the mine ),
union officials say, will cause loss in
the coal production Of the country OF
7,0S3.O tons of anthracite month,
and will entail a loss in pay to the
miners Of not less than $35O,OOO for
every day they remain out.
settlement Of the soft coal workers
trouble was effected after "A day and
evening long conference. \ cub-com-
mittee. TO which the operators and
miners conference had referred "a
compromise offer by the miners, said
il had agreed to the settlement.
The terms provide for increases in
pay to the miners as follows.
Five cents a ton for mining lump
coal.
Three cents a ton for mining all
other coal.
An increase Of 5.26 per cent, for
men paid by the day.
The settlement OF the peace terms
is credited TO the work of the Illinois
operators and miners II. \. Taylor,
of the operators, proved himself as
great a general as the late Francis k.
Robbins, of Pittsburgh, in his best
days.
On the side Of the miners John II.
Walker is given the credit for secur-
ing the advance. The other operators
were outgencraIed.
There will be suspension in the
bituminous fields in all states except
Missouri Kansas, Arkansas, Texas
and Oklahoma, where the miners have
an agreement to work pending negO-
tiations for a contract About $4,000
union men are benefited.
The suspension in the soft coal
fields as a result will be OF short dura-
tion. Railroads and manufacturing i'm
tercsts. fearing a strike in the soft
coal fields, have stacked mp SO that
the short temporary suspension will
have little effect.

Women have pleaded divers reasons

entirely too trivial to warrant the
granting OF a decree in this matter

favorite one urged where there Is no

THEORY AND PRACTICE. 80

Delay has been encountered IN es-
tablishing the school OF journalism
provided for in the will OF the late
Joseph Pulitzer because OF the inAbiI
ity of the executors and the COlum
bia university authorities TO agree
upon proper methods OF instruction,
says the Cincinnati Times Star. The
former favor severely practical train
ing. while the latter would lay great
er stress upon the teaching OF under
lying theories. II is known that Mr.
Pulitzer wished TO have theory and
practice combined. but unfortunately
he said nothing as to the proportion
of each in the combination. lie left
that problem TO be worked out by 9TH
ers While IL will have to be admitted
that there would have been little real
progress IN this world of ours had 1t
not been for the theorists most per
sons will Tbe inclined 20 the belief
that an ounce OF practice Is worth a
pound Of theory in most OF the actiyi'
ties Of life Especially would this be
the case with a school OF Journalism.
There il is proposed TO educate young
men for newspaper careers. That
they should be taught something OF
the fundamental theories OF journal
ism there can be no doubt. but unless
they were also taught a great deal OF
the practical side OF newspaper work
no careers would be waiting tor them.
The average editor may admire fine
theories immensely, but in practice he
likes experienced men on his staif

Cotton Mill Man Here

John Blackwell, a practical cot
ton mill man has been here this
week. He has had much experience
in the cotton mill business in the
Carolinas and understands how to
construct mills of small capacity in
K way to admit OF extensions. We
ought to confer with him along that
Bine and get ideas OF construction on
small plant. The trouble with cot
ton mill enterprises is that they are
usually proposed on large scales so
that small towns cant we'll afford to
undertake, but most any town might
put up a small plant and let 1t grow
as the profits increase.
