them from 10 TO 80 minutes to get 10

As an argument i'm favor OF the

miners point to statistics showing that
in 1910 the average miner worked
only 179 days in Illinois, 220 in Indi-

in Kentucky 23S in the bituminous

sion for advances In freight rates pro-

effective September 3. would increase
the transportation charges Of many

Vigorous protests are being received

ssHOPELESSLY BOSS

The reason Colonel Roosevelt quit
the republican party was because it is
controlled by the bosses. He has said
so himself, and reiterated it many
times. The old party is hopeIessly
boss-riddenl there is no possible way
of escape for It. This has sound
of finality, vet the question suggests
itself. how does Colonel Roosevelt
know that the power of the bosses
cannot be overthrown within the par
ty. Has anybody really tried to
overthrow it? Certainly the colonel
never did during the many years be

ice. Apparently he is jumping to
conclusions.
The simple truth is that Theodore
Roosevelt never bothered his head
about bosses until he became ambiti
ous for third term. Then he found
that most Of the republican leaders
were opposed to his scheme and
these he promptly condemned as boss
-les. A few such as Finn and Johnson
and Stubbs-who are bosses If there
ever were any-rallied around him,
and they Immediately became staunch
friends OF the people. In the battle
