that he had not hesitated to make
suggestions for more adequate re-
presentation Of the employees in the
determination of matters pertaining
to their working conditions: but that
he had studiously avoided anything

The only coal property in Color

Company" he continued. I'm addition
to this company, there are many other
coal mining companies in that state,
in none Of which either we or the Col
orado Fuel and Iron Company have
any interest whatsoever. and a large
number Of these companies were in
volved in the strike. For me to have
attempted to dictate a policy or con-
troll the situation would have meant
an assumption Of authority far be-
yond what the investment which I
represent in the Colorado Fuel and
Iron Company would have justified,
and. il tolerated by the management
Of that company, would have been re-
scented by the other companies in

Doubtless mistakes have been
made and conditions are still imper-

conditions that are justly subject to
criticism; I only ask that the re-
sponsibility for them be apportioned
fairly. The problem now is for all
concerned to develop increasing good

that time the place has been a vcrit2-
bio beehive.
Much of the time as many rs 30
men, most of them skilled tradesmen,
have been employed on the work.
For the concrete and other work,
600 barrels of cement were used. The
number of brick used was 100000. All
of the windows have steel frames and
wire glass with the exception of those
on the river side of the building The
floors throughout are of concrete
and the beams are all Of reinforced
steel, covered with concrete. In fact
no wood or other combustible material
has been used in the construction
of the garage proper and It would be
impossible for the building to catch
fire as there was nothing used in its
construction that viii burn.

The building was constructed under
the personal direction of W. II. Kcycs

The garage is capable of taking

floor is devoted to transients and the
second to Irregular boarders, of which
there are more than 30 mp to the pres

The Reformer presents herewith
icture of the new Mohawk garage in
North Adams, Mass, in which E. c.
Crosby of this town is financially in
crested, with his son, 7. W. Crosby,
nd his partner in the contracting bust
ness, C. Z. Parker, both formerly of
Brattleboro, and Fred ID. Bridges of
Williamstown. The following Is the
greater part of story of the garage
which the North Adams Transcript pub
hshed a few days ago:
The new Mohawk garage on the
site of the old Phoenix mill is now al
most complete in every detail, and al
though it has been open for business
only a short time the owners are high
Ily optimistic of the future. The garage
has been pronounced by tourists,
travelling men and automobile men, as
one of the finest they have seen.
There are larger garages in the big
cities, but according to the general
verdict the Mohawk garage IS as
finely laid out and as completely
equipped as any in the New England
states. All who have visited it have
been profuse in their expressions of
admiration, and the expert for the
state police has declared that it is
strictly freproof, conforming in every
respect to the state laws.
The Phoenix mill plot, where this
garage stands, covers $4,000 square fec;
of land, The garage itself is 50 by
/ 100 feet on the first floor and GO by I6f
feet on the second floor. The roof is
constructed, at an added cost, in sucl
a way that it can be used for q foo
