In State Of West Virginia as

CHARLESTON, Aug. 2oThe &C
cident returns for the month Of July.
just made public by the state de-
partment Of mines, show that. de-
spite the fact that some Of the miners
of West Virginia are stu risking
their lives by violations OF state
mining laws and Of the rules Of the
companies, the number of fatalities
is decreasing. As In previous months.
many of the miners who violated the
rules lost their lives thereby.
Thirty-three miners were killed In
this state last month, as against for
ty-one for the month of June.
Earl A. Henry. chief mining In
spector, points out that If each OF
the men who lost their lives through
carelessness had exercised due care
the fatality list in West Virginia in
July would have been. reduced to
twenty-four.
The chief is pleased with the
showing made in July by Mcdowell
county. Hitherto this county has led
all other counties In the number OF
fatalities: But last month it had
only three. as against ten in the
previous month and Ave in May. The
state officials point out that the EFF

and miners in Mcdowell county to

To1Appeal of Third Party Lead.
ers to Make Campaign
Speeches in State.
ts /. 6, 70 I'M. IrL.s..s,

:. b
CHARLESTON, Aug. 2O.-Colonel
Theodore Roosevelt will make no
speeches in West Virginia in the CONF.
ing campaign In behalf Of the Pro-,
pressiye party candidates.
This information has been given out
lin Charleston, by one who is in posi-
ton to know whereof he speaks and
the announcement has created con-
sternation in the ranks Of the Progress
siye candidates who had been led to
believe that they could depend entirely
on Colonel Roosevelt to make their
campaign-at least their speaking
campaign.
The news that has drifted down
from Oyster Bay that the colonel has
turned deaf ear to the appealstfrom
Progressive leaders in West Virginia
has also given the impression that
Colonel Roosevelt realizes he has the
fight Of his life on his hands in New
York and he does not desire to COM
plicate his fight to get control of the;
Republican organization in the En-
pire state by getting mixed up In any
scraps for a straight-out Progressive
ticket in any other state. II the ex-
president succeeds in putting over Mr..
Hinman as the Republican nominee
for governor OF New York, he will be
completely in the saddle of the Re-
publican organization and without the
semblance of doubt will be the Repub-
lican nominee for president in 1916,
is the opinion expressed by parties
here who are In touch with the situa-i
ton and who calm to understand. the
varied purposes of the Progressive
leader in taking up the crusade for
Mr. Hinman, straight-odt Republi-
can.
Another interesting feature of the
West Virginia situation and one which
is believed to have cut some figure
when Colonel Roosevelt rejected the
plea of the Progressives to come to
West Virginia, is that the founder of
the new party is not by any means
pleased with the class of men who are
running the affairs Of the Progressive
party now. in this state. When the
colonel learned that exc Governor Daw-
son, William P. Hubbard, Samuel B.
Montgomery, Ex-Governor William E.

DEAF EAR TURNED
BY COL. ROOSEVE IT

Glasscock, Frank Tyree and other
scores of his loyal friends in the fight
OF 1912 had severed their connections
with the Progressive party, he is said
to have inquired anxiously as to the
kind Of men who had taken their
places. He was not pleased when he
learned the personnel Of those who
had been placed In charge and ex-
pressed himself as being utterly dis
gusted with the Handlan- Strickling
leadership.
Anyway, it is safe bet that Colonel
Roosevelt's voice will not be heard in
the coming campaign in. this state, and
1T is a pretty safe bet that neither will
he show IN any other way that he is
in sympathy with those who are in
control of the destines of the Pro-
gressive party in this state.

we believe, to the Intervention of an

all our papers were snatched from our
guard by an excited mob of officers

ana we had eventually to go on to
Aachen without any of the papers,
which alone could prove that we were
what we said we were.
''At Aachen we were marched to the
arrest cells in the military barracks

hoced and Kissed and called us English
dogs and other opprobrious epithets.
Here again we slept on verminous
straw, and the next day went once
more through the routine of being
stripped and searched. Each of us was
brought separately before the judicial
officer. If found guilty, we should,
we were told, be shot: If mercy was
extended. our fate would be at least
three years in a German fortress, and

to go back to their tribes.
Fighting of this kind went on for
years and during it yaldivia was cap
tu-ed and tortured to DEATH He was
carried, naked and bound, through the
woods to an Indian camp, and certain
authorities say that the Araucanians
poured molten gold down his throat.
But the story of these Indian wars
would take many pages. The braves
had their great chiefs In the persons of
Lautero and Caupolican, now honored
by statues in the Chilean capitol 1t Is
enough to say that they were gradually
subdued by the Spaniards aud their
lands were taken from them just as we
have taken the lands of our Indians.
they are much like our Indians now,
being settled upon reservations or upon
individual farms, which they are not
permitted to sell. The race of the past
has been decimated by drunkenness and
disease, and it grows fewer every year.
1t comprises now less than 1000. and
of these about $4,000 are scattered over
this province of Temuco and the country
adjoining.
Most of the holdings are In reserva-
tons set aside by the government. me
lands are not held in common. but are
divided among the families, so many
acres being given to each person. A
baby gets the same amount of land as
an old man of 60. If one of the
family does there is a new subdivision
of the land allotted to that family, and IL
the whole family disappears the lands re-
vert to the government. Most of the
holdings are patriarchal. The oldest male
member of the family controls the prop
erty, and when he dies another is selected
to take his place. The people have a
loose tribal relation and are practically
ruled by their chiefs under the Chilean
government.
During my stay ! have visited some of
these Araucanian reservations. The land
