STRIKERS HAVE CHRISTMAS TREE
Clifton, ARK, Scene of Great commun-
ity Celebration.

Notwithstanding that thousands OF
miners are on strike. this was one of
the brightest and happiest Christmas
days in the history of the Clifton-Mo-
renci mining district of Arizona More
than 200 men, women and children
were remembered with small gifts and
packages of popcorn handed down from
a big community Christmas tree at Cliff
ton.
The wants of the more needy were
looked after closely. Six large steers
were butchered and the meat was dis
tributed among families.
The granting of a temporary injunc-
tion by Federal Judge Sawtell at Tucson
last Friday, restraining the miners from
interfering with assessment work on 1872
mining claims Of the companies had
created decided impression in the dis
trict, especially among the Mexicans,
who interpret this action as equivalent
to federal Intervention.
Federal investigators have completed
work there and are in Ell Paso interro-
eating the mine managers, who have
been In Texas since the strike began,
having "deported' themselves.

made.
Employment for Miners.
The commission has investigated the
problem of involuntary idleness and in
terceded with the coal mine operators of
both the northern and southern districts,
to the end that large number of for
mer strikers have been again given en-
ployment. 1t has encouraged in every
manner possible the installation of safe
ty devices and methods and is doing all
it can TO help spread the idea of care
fulness thruout the working communi-
ties of the state. With the assistance
OF the state superintendent of schools
the commission has instituted q move
ment to install a course of Safety
First studies in the public schools OF
Colorado. This movement is bound to
be of great benefit to the worker and
should receive his encouragement.
Important Rulings Made.
1t has been necessary for the commits
sion to interpret conflicting portions of
the law. One, in particular, is of in
terest to the worker, namely, that no
employer or insurance corporation can
reduce the amount of compensation, as
tENh llsu III lllc cSAs ApA any AsaN7N AAhif
the commission first gives its approval
to this reduction. II has also ruled that
the employer cannot deduct all or any
part OF the workmen's compensation
premium from the employees wages. A
very important and much disputed point
Is now being argued before the commits
sion, involving the question as to wheth-
er or not the Colorado workmen's COM
pensation act will apply to injuries out
side OF the state to an employe whose
place OF employment and home is within
the state. The commission has also ruled
that a union. thru its officers or a COM
mittee, may represent a worker and ap-
near in his behalf before the commits
sion.
Investigating Rockefeller Pizn-
Colorado is being visited this week by
President Wilson's Colorado coal COM
mission. which commission was appoint
ed in December, 1914, by the president to
mediate and adjust, if possible, the diff
ferenees between the coal operators and
the striking miners. The fact that the
strike was declared off prevented this
commission from coming to Colorado at
the time OF its organization Its pres
ent visit is for the purpose of investi-
eating the actual conditions within the
state, especially as to the success of the
Rockefeller plan and TO report its find-
ings on these investigations to Presi-

appreciate the following composition
by ten-year-old boy, which appeared

"The horse chestnut tree is a great
shade tree. But it is rather nuisance
because of the blossoms dropping all
over the grass, next the little green
chestnuts fall all over the ground
next the big horse chestnuts fail with
the burrs, next the great large leaves
fall and dry up. and it takes time to
rake them all up, and they won't burn
Alike other leaves. So if l We're plant
