TOnOpah Miners Accept Bonus

That there will be no strike or
wage trouble in Tonopah was defn-
itely determined Saturday when the
five union organizations engaged in
the mines and mills at that place took
a referendum vote whether they
would accept the bonus offered by
the mining companies or demand a
fiat increase of wages. The bonus
was accepted by a vote.of over 1000
to 1877 against.
Some time ago, it will be remem-
bered, the men demanded an increase
of wages and after some discussion
between the mine owners and repre-
sentatives of the minersit was agreed
that a bonus of so cents a day would
be paid everyone about the mines
and mills as long as silver remained
above 70 cents an ounce. This ar
rangement was put up to the unions
and because Of some objection it was
submitted to a referendum, with the
result as above.stated.

there's absorbing lntereSt dli oNei
the world. The British people have
been restless for a long time and OF
late there has been an insistent de-
mand that the waiting policy be aban-
doned and the war prosecuted with
the greatest possible amount of vigor.
First came the changes in the ad-
miralty and then the downfall of the
cabinet. Few of the British states
men believed that Lloyd George
would be able to construct a minis
try out of the wreck of the coalition.
Bonar Law was summoned by the
King upon the advice of Mr.. Asquith,
but declined to attempt the task of
cabinet making and there was no
way out of putting the matter into
the hands of the Welshman who has
shown such a tremendous amount of
energy ever since Great Britain be-
| came involved in the struggle on the
continent. iroe
The protest of the United States
against the deportation of the Bel
gians has been communicated to the
German government without elicit
ing afavorable response. The action
of the Germans in taking the Belgians
from their native land to work be-
hind the lines in the country of their
oppressors is declared to be "in con-
PREVENTION of all precedents and of
those humane principles of interna-
tional practice which long have been
accepted and followed by civilized
nations in their treatment of non
combatants." The German excuse
is that by reason of the entente block
ade the industries of Belgium have
been paralyzed on account of lack of
raw materials, thus preventing hun
dreds of thousands of men and wo-
men from obtaining work and max
ing them objects of charity. 1t is
claimed also that idleness has had a
degenerating influence and that
drunkenness and social ~depravity
have increased as a result. At any
rate the de%portations are continuing
and it is feared they will interfere
with plans of relief.
During the week the German an
swer to the inquiry of the United
States Government concerning the
sinking of the liner Arabia was re-
ceived and proved to be unsatisfac-
tory. Further correspondence upon
the subject is said to be contemplated
and the attention of Germany will
be called to the fact that promises
regarding submarine warfare have
not been kept.
