10000 Miners in
466 West Virginia
Workings Will Go Out
By Associated Press

Charleston, w. Va, Oct. 20. -
Forty thousand union miners, en-
ployed in 466 mines in West Virginia
will quit work next Saturday. if the
general strike order is enforced.
Their idleness will cut the coal pro-
duction of the state 100000 tons
a month.
The union fields are Kanawha,
New River, Fairmont, Piedmont,
while the nonunion fields are Guyan
Valley, Thacker, Pocahontas, Tug
River, Winding Gulf and Elk River.
They employ approximately $4,000
miners, operators say.
OF the organized fields all are op-
Grating under the Government agree

hold, is to remain in operation until

LOOKS For REPLY

Washington, Oct. 29.-Govern-
ment officials think that John L.
Lewis, president of the United Mine
Workers, who had summoned his
full scale committee to meet to-
day, will make imm mediate announce
ment of the reply of his men to
President Wilson's letter. According
to the view held bs Secretary of
Labor Wilson, however, there may
be no answer until the very last mo-
ment. An eleventh-hour decision
to postpone or cancel the strike
would not be surprising, it was said,
but there was some doubt here
as to whether word could be sent
to the men in time to keep them
at work.
The railroad administration is
putting forth every effort to move
the coal already mined to districts
where present stocks are running
dangerously low. Meantime, govern
ment agents were taking a quick
census and trying to find out how
long the stocks on hand might last.
In the absence of an authoritative
statement, stock reports were con-
fiicting, but it was said that union
estimates of enough to supply de-
mands for thirty days were not far
wrong.
THE government is ready for the
worst. but is hoping the worst will
not happen, firm in the belief that
the miners will respond periodically
to the Presidents appeal and keep
the mines running while negotiating
new wage agreement" was the
summing up of government Of

Democrats Up i'm the Air
The Democratic machine bosses,
who have laid down on their job this
time, are all worked up over the
fact that their failure to support
the ticket nominated in September
has come to public notice. They
are making a last-minute effort to
cover up their failures, but nobody
is> fooled. The rank and file of the
Democrats understand the situation
very fully and realize that were it
not for the activity of the Central
Democratic Club, which will hold
rally tomorrow night, the cam
paign in Harrisburg would have
been allowed to fall fiat. That leans
a fight when the bosses try to grab
control of the primaries next year to
elect delegates to the national con-
vention.
