CHARLESTON. w. Va, April 22-
When the bituminous coal miners met
here today to try to settle the years

Creek districts, it was not Governor
Henry D. Hatfield to whom they list
ened respectfully, but OR" Hatfield,
the man whom they have known for
more than eighteen years.
The miners' convention was called
In order for the doctor-governor to
present his peace proposals to the
men. After many meetings, the mems
leaders were unable to get together
on Governor Hatfeld's proposition
and it was decided to put 1t up to the
men themselves.
Governor Hatfield, in his efforts to
bring about settlement of the agita-
tion that has torn West Virginia for
a year, has applied his old-time doc
tor methods. He has not tried states
manship on the labor, trouble, but has
diagnosed" the disagreement, with
the result that it was freely predict
ed today the men would adopt his
remedy"

MORGAN'S SOUL
is in HEAVEN
Denver Ministers Agree That
He Got There Even if He
Was a Millionaire.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Service.l
DENVER, Colo, April 22.-The soul
of j. Perpont Morgan is in heaven,
according to Denver ministers.
Salvation, it would seem, is easier
now than in the olden times. when it
was said that "it is easier for camel
to 60 through the eye of needle
than for rich man to enter into the
kingdom Of Cod
Morgan's position in the kingdom is
very humble one, however, in the
opinion of the Rev. j. B. Johnson Of
the Peoples Tabernacle.
God is very gracious and If Nor
gan humbly submitted his soul to
Him before death, he probably went
to Heaven said Rev. Johnson
Rev. B. B. Tyler of the Christian
church, says that great wealth has
nothing to do with mans chances
for heaven.
THE rich man has Just as good a
chance as the poor man If he uses
his money we'll" he said.
Il should put Morgan in the line of
the good average christian Rev. A.
II. c. Morse said: "It Is very easy for
those of us who are without money
criticise the rich. I expect ]. Pierpont
Morgan used his wealth a lot better
than / could have done. I have no
fault to find with rich men, and GER
tainiy the old Bible saying is not to be
taken literally"
That the text is not to be taken
| literally means merely that a rich
man is subject to great temptations,
/ is the opinion of the Rev. r. F. Coyie
He says that the fact that man has
several millions is no reason why he
should not go TO heaven.
Rev. Allan A. Tanner of the Con.
gregational church says: No man is
saved by belief in a dogma such as
n the doctrine of atonement alone Ger
tainly Morgan could have used his
wealth better, but that could be said
OF most Of US. | could not Judge him. :

coughing, but shortly after midnight
he insisted on his attendants retiring

Stimulants are given the pope every

THE CATHOLIC CHURCH
She Says That II Has Never Gone on
Record as Being Opposed
TO Woman's
Suffrage.

UNITED Press Leased Wire Servicel
NEW YORK, April 22.-Mrs. o. H.
F. Belmont sails for Europe tomorrow
to attend the national woman suff-
rage convention in Budapest, but in
the midst OF her preparations today
prepared a statement for the United
Press taking issue with Miss Inez Mil
holland as to the opposition of the
Catholic church toward equal rights
for women. Mrs Belmont quoted
Archbishop Keane OF Dubuque, form
erly bishop OF Wyoming, and 9TH
ers as favoring equal suffrage. The
statement follows:
TBy Mrs. o. H. p Belmont1
My observation Is that the Roman
Catholic church has never put itself
on record as being opposed to wo-
mans suffrage, but distinctly empha-
sizes the fact that its attitude is en-
tirely neutral. The Catholic church,
like the churches Of every other de-
nomination. stands for conservatism,
but the widest Imagination could not
claim this to be any more a peculiar
ity of one church than another.
From the standpoint of religion, the
Catholic church and all other churches
leave the question of woman's suff-
rage absolutely alone and it is unjust
and unfair to cricise any church on
the ground that some of its members
and leaders, as individuals, oppose
the principle. In this connection 1t is
interesting to know that on the twen-
ty-fifth of this month the Catholic wo-
mans equal suffrage association will
hold public meeting in one Of the
largest Catholic churches in New
York city at the invitation OF the
pastor
While it is true that Cardinal Glib
bons, most conservative man, quite
frankly denounces the equal suffrage
movement ON the other hand the late
Cardinal Moran of Australia. having
the advantage of observing its bene-
fetal effects in his own country, COW
ering a period of thirteen years, up
held 1t on all occasions, his favor1te
remark on the subject being: THE
WClHdI WHO tHlihS oilV - hohihs7
self unwomanly by voting is silly
creature"
While the Bishop of New York may
be opposed to the question, the Bishop
4 of California is in favor. From Wyom-
] ing, Bishop Keane sends the follow
/ Ing message:
From my large experience as
! bishop Of the Catholic church in
| Wyoming, where we have had woman
! suffrage for AZ years, have never
known but one woman who made her
self obnoxious in politics. AS to the
1 Catholic women in my diocese, | do
not think that the right of suffrage
has drawn them either out of their
/ homes or out of the church. ] think
there need be no fear of that result.
In California some Of the most ac-
4 tive workers for the woman's suffrage
amendment were Catholic priests. not
ably Rev. Joseph NJ Gleason, Of Palo
Alto. who says:

Conditions in Present Economic
System, Duo to Old

WASHINGTON, April 22.- Sounding
the keynote Of the democratic tariff

committee who framed the Wilson-Un-

report to the house.

the following construction to the tar

convention:
I'VE believe this pledge contains
two essential ideas-the establish
ment of duties designed primarily to
produce revenue without thought Of
protection, and the attainment of this
end by legislation that Will not injure
or destroy legitimate industry"
The democrats estimate that annual
receipts under the Wilson Underwood
bill will aggregate s926000,o0o and
expenses s994,790, 900 with the deficit
of $68,790,000 to be cared for by the

Wilson's Final Word.

WASHINGTON, April 22.-Presi-
dent Wilson said the final word of the
administration so fer as the Cali
fornia-Japanese question is concerned
IN the following telegram addressed
today to Governor Hiram Johnson and
the presiding officers of both houses
of that states legislature:
speak on the assumption, which |
am sure is well founded that the peo-
pie of California do not desire their
epresentatives-and that their repre-.
sentatives do not wish, or intend-in
any circumstances to embarrass the
government OF the United States in
Its dealings with nation which it
has most earnestly and cordially
sought to maintain relations Of gen.
unine friendship and good will, and
that least OF all do they desire to do
ANYTHING that might impair treaty
obligations or cast doubt upon the
honor and good faith of the nation
and its government.
therefore, | appeal with the utmost
confidence to the people, the governor
and the legislature of California, to
act in the matter now under consid-
Grafton in a manner that cannot from
any point of view be fairly challeng-
ed, or called in question.

Which Makes tho Foreigners

PRESIDENT rs WORRIED
woodrow Wilson and Secretary Of
State Bryan Are Giving the
Question Considerable
Attention.

runited Press Leased Wire Service
WASHINGTON April 22-The fed
eral government will aid Japan in a
court action to declare unconstitu-
tlonal any law passed in California
which specifically makes aliens "in-
eligible to citizenship" and incapable
of land ownership, or leasing.
The department Of justice will in
tervene as friend of the court" i'm.
mediately after any such legislation is
passed, which in the opinion Of Pres
ident Wilson and Secretary of State
Bryan is questionable along constitu
tional lines and which receives the
approval OF Governor Johnson. But
the president Is still hopeful that the
California legislature will realize be-
fore it finally decides on the form of
the contemplated laws, the general
gravity of the proceeding and will
follow the wishes of the United States
government.
The situation was admittedly CIV
ing the president concern today. Sec
retary Bryan talked it over with the
president and it was expected to
prove a lively topic Of discussion at
the regular cabinet meeting later in
the day. The administration in no
way questions the right Of the state
to enact laws for it's own protection,
but 1t considers the question OF work
Ing Of such laws one Of moment.
1t is the phraseology that will fn-
ally decide the attitude of the presi-
dent He considers that he made his
position perfectly clear in his tele-
gram of Saturday to Governor john
son and will have nothing surther to
say on this position at this time. 1t
is believed further kilograms will be
exchanged between the president, the
state department and the California
authorities and it is not considered at
the white house, or at the department
of state, that there are at the present
time any irreconciliable differences.
The real fear of the officials In
Washington is that there will be an
outbreak Of anti-American feeling
among the "jingoes" of Japan.
