To the. Miners of Eastern Ohio:
You are all aware of the fact that
the miners Of this District have not
had any. trouble and have been peace
full and want to say that we have
some hard people to deal with to keep
trouble down; as in one case we had
here. The West Wheeling Coal ecm-
pany is trying to run open shop and
hired men of all classes, and one OF
them we had arrested for carrying a
gun, and it was found on him when
he was taken to Bridgeport. 1t was
found out that the gun belonged to the
general manager of the company and
his son gave Bill Allen the gun, SO if
he wanted to cause trouble it is not
known. They went bond and
fetched him home and he went ito
work again until the 18th of February,
when the men had a talk with. him
and decided to take him in their pa
rade. So when he came to Bellaire
he said he was tired and stayed all
night in the City building, and as far
as the company's property being dam
aged, it is not SO. The mine is idle
just now, but, hear, will start <ul

THE FULFILLMENT OF THE Law


Editor of the Wheeling Majority:
Please allow me space in your val
liable paper to show how the law OF
the state of Ohio has been fulfilled.
, : A few weeks ago there was sui.
instituted in a Justice of the Peace
court at, Steubenville, o., styled Gle
Run Coal Co. VS.. Joe Laska. This S
was to evict Joe Loska, a miner livii
at Rush Run, Ohio.
After so-called jury trial Def
the Justice of the Peace, a verdict
rendered for the Coal company. tn,
case was appealed to the Court o.
Common Pleas, and the Judge of thai
court affirmed the findings of the low
er court.
When the writer went up to Ruslo
Run to notify Joe of the decision OF
the court, instead of finding Joe living
in house, as had been stated by the
agent of the Coal company, he found
Joe standing on the outside of what
looked to be a large dry goods box,
| raised off the ground about three feet
and resting on stills. An average per-
son would have thought that this box
was coal shed.
When told: "Joe, you will have to
move" he answered: "What for?"
Now. Mr.. Editor, do not get the idea
tina Joe had been doing anything
| wrong, for he is very quiet, easy
going fellow, but Joe has been idle the
same as thirteen thousand other min
ers, for an honest system of weigh
ing coal, and for the same price that
was granted two-thirds of the miners
in the state of Ohio. Joe has worked
four years for the Glen Run Coal COM
pany, but he never paid any rent; not
withstanding the fact that he lived in
a shack that the Glen Run Coal com.
pany held title to. For this reason,
on each pay day, the price of rent
was deducted from the pay envelope
before it was given to Joe, and that
amount was six dollars for six months.
and seven dollars for the other six
months; and if any one was to pay
fifty dollars for this dry goods box
he would be fit subject for the Nut
Club.
NOW, MT: Editor, you may think that |
the reason that Joe Loska was evict- |
ed was because that the superintend-
ent or general manager wanted to
move to Rush Run, but that cannot be
the reason. because the superintend-
ent lives in house at Rayland and /
Mr.. c. E. Maurer, general manager.
lives at RavennaS and because there Il
are numerous empty houses up at
Ruch Run. H
Now, Mr.. Editor, Joe is not the only
one to be set out of this dry goods
oox-there is wife and four little

Outlines Fighting Issue.

Asking, What is the issue for which
we are fighting?" Sir Edward proceed
ed as follows:
In due time terms of peace will be
put forward by the allies. One es-
sential condition, must be the restora-
ton to Belgium of her Independent
national life and free possession of her
territory The great issue is this: We
wish the nations of Europe to be free
to live their Independent lives, work.
Ing out their own form of government
and their own form of national de-
velopment in full liberty, whether they
be great states or small states. That
Is our ideal.
The German ideal Is that the Ger
mans are a superior people to whom all
things are lawful and against whom
resistance is unlawful and must be nut
down: that they must establish dom
ination over the nations of the con-
tinent and hat all must be subseryient
to Germany.
Would Rather Perish.
Il would rather perish or leave the con-
tinent altogether than live in it under
such conditions After this war we and
the other nations OF Europe must be free
to live without the Interference Of the
superior war lord; without the clang Of
armor and the sword continually ratified
|
voked. and without our policy being die
tated by the military domination Of
Prussia.
1--WE claim for ourselves and together
with our allies We will secure that right
to live and pursue our national existence
not in the shadow Of Prlssian supremacy,
but in the light of equal liberty"
Pledge to Belgium.
The foreign secretary reiterated that
long before the war he had given n
pledge to Belgium that never would
Great Britain violate her neutrality so
long as it was respected by others.
when Germany invated Belgium we
were bound to oppose Germany with
all our strength" he continued. "Is
there any one now who believes that
when Germany attacked Belgium, shot
down non-cOmbatants, ravaged the
country and violated all the rules of
war In recent times and all the rules
Of humanity of all time, we could sit
still and look without eternal dis
grace"
Sir Edward Grey concluded with an
appeal to everybody to seize the op-
portunity to serve his country when its
very existence was at stake and when
its cause was just and right.
There never was a time in our his

great and imperative as 1t is now, or q

Heads of Chambers of Commerce
Meeting in Paris Declare Con-
ditions Are Favorable.

PARIS, March 90. 4:3o a.m.-Presi-
dents OF seventy-five French chambers
of commerce have been meeting here
under the presidency of David Mennet
head of the Paris chamber. to discuss
the general commercial situation. All
were agreed that the conditions which
exist are as good as state of war
will permit. The volume Of trade. it
was asserted, gradually is increasing.
and certain districts even are enjoying
unusual prosperity. notably those in
which are factories working on army
contracts and those beginning to manu-
facture products hitherto obtainable in
Germany.
1t was decided that the Paris cham
Der should gather data regarding arti-
cles imported from Germany both by
France and allied and neutral countries
which could be made in France.
Speakers declared that slow and un-
reliable transportation facilities were
hampering large scale operations more
than credit difficulties, and a resolu-
ton was passed favoring a return to
the practice whereby courts had the
power to relieve transportation COM
panies of liability for lost or damag ged
goods, if it was shown such loss was
attributable to a state of war.

Given Every Assurance.

In recent years." the foreign secre-
tary went on to say, I'VE have
given Germany every assurance that
any aggressive movement upon her
would receive no support from US. We
withheld from her only one thing
the unconditional promise to stand
aside however aggressive Germany
herself might be to her neighbor.
Last July, before the outbreak of
war, France, Italy and Russia were
ready to accept conference. Ger
many refused every suggestion made
for settling the dispute in this way
and on her must rest now and for all
time the appalling responsibility of
having plunged Europe into this war"
