NO RAISE IN WAGES
FOR COAL MINERS
DR.. Garfield Is Opposed to Increase
Bonuses Are characterized
as an Evil. La


WASHINGTON, Aug. 24.-Increase
IN the wages of coal miners as a sub
shtute for the payments of bonuses for
the stopping of which drastic steps are
TO be taken, will not be approved by
Fuel Administrator Garfield.
President Frank j. HAYES and other
ofhcials of the United Mine Workers of
America received this answer from the
fuel administrator yesterday in response
to their request for fiat increase in
wages in lieu of the payments of bon
uses.
Bonuses We're characterized by Mr..
Garfield as "an evil He announced
that the first action toward forcing the
abandonment of the practice would be
reduction of 20 cents ton in the
Cambridge and Hooking fields of Ohio
and a reduction of five cents ton in all
other Ohio fields excepting the eighth
district. From these fields, it was stated,
were received most of the complaints
as to the payment of bonuses.
DIR. Garfield recalled to Hayes and the
other miners officials that they had
ratified the so-called Washington wage
agreement at their biennial convention
under which the wage increase granted
them last October was to remain in
force for the duration of the war, "not
to exceed two years from April /,

OPEN LETTER TO
CHARLES II. DARLING
Raymond Trainor Resents Attacks Upon
Present Governor and Candidate
for That Office.

WHITE RIVER JUNCTION, Aug. "a.
Raymond Trainor, secretary of the Yer
mont Local Option league, who is dis
gusted with the statements made by Judge
Darling in an address delivered in B,Irline-
ton, has sent to him the following letter.
copies of which are mailed to newspapers
of the state:
Hon. Charles III. Darling,
Burlington, Vt.
Dear Sir:
} ! have read the address you delivered
to the Burlington Darling club last
Wednesday night and am sorry that YOU
saw fit to make such a bitter attack on
the present governor of Vermont and on
a rival candidate for the nomination for
that office
l hold no brief for Governor Graham
or Mr.. Howe, but like most Americans,
| am not i'm favor of kicking a man when
he is down.
Do you consider it wise or fair for "a
man to make political capital for him
self out of the personal misfortunes OF
another?
Outside of politics, as Vermonter, do
you not believe that Horace +. Graham
was one of the very best governors Yer
mont ever had?
Isn't it true that he has handled the
business of the state, as governor, in an
exceedingly efficient manner?
Isn't the present situation in Vermont
more the fault of the system under which
the state business has been conducted
for many years rather than the fault of
any particular individual?
1t is true that there are many srrong
reasons why Mr. Howe should not receive
the nomination., but do you believe il is
proper or fair to charge him with lack
of patriotism,-a very serious charge to.
day,-when he is so incapacitated nv i'll
ness that he cannot personally defend HIM
self?
| am supporting and will vote for p.
w. Clement for the republican nomination
Tor governor because | believe he is the
best qualified man in the field for that
office. His attitude in refraning from rer.
sonal attacks on Governor Graham or Mr.
Howe and asking for the votes of the poo.
pie on his own qualifications, throwing
no mud at others who are sick or unfor-
tunate, appeals to my sense of fair play.
Don't you think that Mr.. Clements at.
tltude toward these two men. under the
circumstances, is a fairer way of treating
an unfortunate situation?
Very truly yours,
Raymond Trainor,
