shown the power of initiative.
This law Of leadership furnishes
the greatest argument in favor OF su-

THE TIME IS I P

With the passage Of the tariff and currency bills and the coming
of the new year it is a pleasure to note TIL tone OF confidence tht
comes from all part of the United States predicting all sorts OF good
times for the future years. Judging by the reports confidence which
after all is the keynote &c the whole situation, has restored, and
simply means that the capitahstic classes, banks and Ike institutions
have faith in the future OF the country, Tor rust IN the aDh'y
of the public to pay off obligations incurred and to be incurred, II
are going to turn loose their boards OF wealth fol legitimate enter
prises and to responsible people.
The return of prosperity, which has been n absent member tor
eve or eight years, does o mean, however, hat a plethora 81
cash is going to drop into the laps OFT those who are making no ct
FORT to help themselves or their communities, but 1t does mean tn
those who re sincere and honest, who have a merltorlous propostlm
will have no great trouble in raising the money to put 1t through.
To Nevada it means more perhaps than to any other state IN tn
west, for with the advent of the panic in 1907, many embryo enter
prises, with more than a modcum of virtue, we're wrecked to a de-
gree that knocked hope Of the future plumb ut Of TIL projectors and
left them almost IN the shores OF bankruptcy, but with the coming
back of good times the tangled threads OF their plans will BE IN
knoted and with the aid that a be secured they will be revlvlhed and
made to succeed.
This does O apply to any n industry in tn state. Nevada has
as great resources as any commonwealth in the world, but IN most
instances they are in the immature stage. They "a help to bring
them to the producing or prospecting point and this they will receive
if the effort is made, if the people will stand together, boost each
others project, quit hammering or knocking, and pull IN the same
channel. The time is ripe for success, and the year 1914 should SPELL
a lev epoch for the upbuilding the putting back on the raod OF pros
perty, of the state of Nevada.

WAGE PARLEY
COMES TO END
Soft Coal Operators and Min
eTs Fail TO Agree

In Philadelphia the conferees repre-.
senting the soft coal operators and
miners of western Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Indiana and Illinois failed to come to
an agreement on the wage scale to
take the place of the one which will
expire on March 81. The men ad.
journed sine die.
1t was announced that this action
does not mean necessarily strike, as
it was pointed out that five weeks re-
main for the two sides to get together
in another effort to reach an agree.
ment.
1t was predicted that another con-
ference would be held before April l
in a city within the central com.
petitive field.
After the joint conference ad.
journed the miners held a meeting,
at which John p. White, international
president of the United Mineworkers
of America, was instructed to call to.
gether the policy committee of the
organization Whenever he deems it
necessary.
The policy committee is made I'D OF
representatives from every district of
the United Mineworkers in the United
States and Canada. President White
afterward said he did not know when
he would send out the call. All de-
pends upon developments within the
next few days, he said.
The break came on the demand
which provides that local differences
be settled within local districts. On
this question the miners demand was
as follows:
"That all local inequalities and in
ternal differences be referred to the
various districts affected by settle
ment."
The operators refused this and pro-
posed the following, which is the third
paragraph in the existing agreement
adopted in Cleveland in 1912:
THAT internal differences be re-
ferred for adjustment to the various
districts affected, it being understood
that nothing shall be done in district
or subdistrict conventions that will
increase the cost of production or re.
duce the earning capacity of the
