Empire. November S-(Special)-So
this is the day for the indianapolis court
decision on the famous injunction suit,
and before these lines are in type the
public will know which is master Of the
situation, the federal courts or the United
Mine Workers; whether President Lewis
of the U. M. w. u. will recall his strike
order or go to jail. 1t is said that the
distinguished leader today asserts that
he prefers the latter.
The present so-called strike" of union
lied miners in Alapama is somewhat OF
a puzzle to the ordinary observer. ana
this writer is out taking observations
with a view to ascertain actual condl-
tons as they exist at the mines The
most encouraging feature of the present
movement is that it is lacking in that
spirit of disorder, lawlessness and Bit
terness which is a usual element in Ia
Dor troubles. Nobody seems to be mad
The smile is on the countenance, of the
resting miner as he sits on hfs vine
clad cottage porch, surrounded by wife
and children and politely bows TO the
working miners and the masters of the
mining camp as they so to and from
their work places This is a fair indi-
cation that their hearts and minds are
not warmed up by the orders of the
union chiefs, and that they regard the
strike as only temporary.
This temporary 'lay-off'' seems to have
been induced by these factors: Levity
produced by unusual prosperity OF the
miner; a Willingness, ability and desire
to take a rest after weeks and months
of strenuous labor; ability to test for n
while the relative strength of the opera
tor and the union masters; an opportu-
nifty to prove loyalty to misguided leader

The larger payments were to con-
tractors, but the amount stated is in
excess of cost to them of their help.
These figures clearly indicate the
compensation afforded miners at EN-
pire. A further indication here of the
prosperity of the miners is their posses
sion of nearly 1000 pleasure automobiles
and the purchase by many of them of
silk shirts of the $40 and $12 variety.
AS stated above there is peace and
quiet at Empire and smoke from the
stacks the whistles of locomotives, sthe
rumble of car wheels still make cheer
full music, and this weeks output of
the black diamond is Sc per cent of

rest for these miners who seem to
think they can enjoy a siesta or go

NO NEED OF OFFICERS ..
There seems to be no need for SOL

There is a bunch of boys in charge of

Downs here, whose very presence for
bids lawlesness and then, too. even the
striking miners are intelligent enough
to heed that command of the law en-
bodied in this section OF the code Of
Ala bama:
1856 (5511) (3763) Preventing per-
sons from engaging in peaceful work or
lawful industry:
ANY person who, by force or threats
of violence to person or property pre-
vents, or seeks to prevent, another from
doing work or furnishini materials, or
from contracting to do work or furnish
materials, for or to any person en-
gagged in any lawful business, or who
disturbs interferes with, or prevnts, or
in any manner attempts to prevnt the
peaceable exercise of any lawful indus
person, must, on conviction, be fined
not less than $40 nor moret han $500,
and may also be imprisoned in the
county jail, or sentenced to hard Ia
Dor for the county for not more than
~ months. (February IT, 1885, p.
143)"
Taking it all in all. this is the most
hopeless strike (for the participants)
ever inaugurated in this country, with
the entire daily press of the country,
the national administration, both po-
liticai parties, and strongest of all, pub
lie sentiment, frowning upon and con-
demning it, Its life will cover but
brief span.

is to send each organization to the

sent overseas TO relieve some division
already there. The report evidently
gained some circulation and caused
hundreds of inquiries. Ii can positive
" be stated that the 10th will not be
sent on overseas duty. The terms of
the arInistice make this impossible if
nothing else. AS this is a regular

ably not be demobilized as a division,
but it's drafted personnel discharged
and the division filled by enlistment.
No announcement has been made
that will indicate when the drafted

are held there for not over 10 days
