OPERATORS BATTLE WITH

OVER MILLION DOLLARS, SPENT

Summit Hill. Pa, Feb 23.-Mine
operators Of Panther Creek Valley
are seeking to conquer the fire
which has been burning siNty-t~o
years in the mines here which are
owned by the Leigh Coal and Navi-
CATION Company. Owners OF the
burning mine thought they had the
fire cxtinguished but recently dense
volumes Of smoke were discovered
pouring from the abandoned shafts
in the vicinity Of MeCready's old
mines. Flames can now plainly be
seen during the night belching from
the earth.
During the sixty-two years that
the mines have been afre millions
have been expended by the Leigh
Coal and Navigation Company and
millions Of dollars worth of coal has
been reduced to ashes, Powerful
pumps for many years were con-
stantly kept working at an enor-
nous cost pumping water into the
valley IN the hopes of getting con
troll Of the fire. The work howey-
err. proved to be without avail.
One million dollars was then ex-
penaed to sink a concrete wall
deep down into the earth in front
Of the underground conflagration
with the hope Of checking 1t. Quite
recently all the caves and abandon
ed shafts were sealed or filled in TO
prevent any draughts reaching the
fire. but this seemed only to IN
crease the activity of the flames
The blaze after raging for some
time died out OF its own accord and
mine owners thought 1t would De
only question Of time when WORK
could be resumed in shafts adjacent
to the fire which had to be aban-
doned because OF the intense neat
and danger OF explosions.

GREETINGS TO THE POET

Mr.. James Whitcomb Riley
Here is health and joy and cheer
To him, our royal peer.
And may me never fear
To live an hundred year.
With health so long deferred,
None dared to breathe nor stirred
Lest something happened to our bard.
Please heaven, 'twould be too hard
To lose our friend so willy, 3d..
Long live James Whitcomb Riley.

"LET MAYOR GO THRo WITH ALL
THE LAWS OR NONE"
In a statement issued this morn
ing Atty Mortimer Newield attacks
Mayor Thompson for only enforcing
part of the laws.
81 would like to call the attention
of readers of The Day Book to the
fact that there is a law which is far
more important than the Sunday
closing law which has never been
fully enforced in Illinois" the state
ment reads. 1t is an act to regulate
the manufacture, use and sale of
cigarettes and it went into force dur
ing 1907"
Children smoke cigarettes be-
cause their immature minds, reading
the advertisements constantly placed
before them, create a desire to see
what they taste like. Cigarette
smoking is doing far more harm
among the youth of this city than
the sale of liquor
Between the two evils choose the
lesser put a stop to it-that is
what the mayor did. 1 do not object
to either cigarette smoking or to
drinking, but I do object to any one
man hiding behind the cloak of au
thority vested in him, who endeavors
to control the morals of the COM
munity in an arbitrary manner and
whose motive is for personal gain and
political advancement"
LET the mayor enther enforce all
of the laws or let them lie dormant
on the statute books"

Property values have decreased in

 Dear Sir; As 1 nave regular ly read the Picayune for 22 years and believe it stands for Democ- racy and the principles that are just and right, upholdeth the truth and upbraideth not.
 What about MT. Bryan. We'll this question has been asked me several times. and as the people know 1 think MT. Bryan one of God s noblest, smartest and best men on the face of the earth, es- pecially in the United States, and I believe with all my mind chat the United States possesses the brains and piety of the world. When Mr. Bryan resigned as secretary of state 1 was almost made to stand in perfect awe and wonder what the next would be, but I was sure he was right, so 1 see the truth as it is.
 MT. Wilson had always con- suited him about matters sma l and great. He had drawn every note or had knowledge of every note that had been sent to the warning nations concerning our interest everywhere until this last note to Germany concerning the Lusitania. MT. Wilson went into seclusion and dictated it all himself and came forward with 1t. Not one of his cabinet knew what it contained until he pre- Sented 1t to them or the secreta- ry. MT. Bryan, to sign, so he re. signed rather than sign 1t. l think he had perfect right to do so if he was honest and true to hls convictions and self, which he has without the least shadow of doubt in my mind, and think to all thinking people.
