WASHINGTON, d. c., May IA
The Republican Publicity association,
through its president, Hon. Jonathan
Bourne Jr, gave out the following
statement today from its Washing
ton headquarters:

spirator against mankindY Is this

safe refuge beneath the academic
skirts of a man whose Imperialism

that way.
"of all the lame excuses ever sub
Imitted to a Disguised world, that of

viction of the head OF state is the
most spineless. II precedent is

The patience which the president
of the. United States has exhibited
toward Germany, the German and the
Kaiser and his court is of a quality
more vicious than virtuous. So far
as is known the records rail to show
single instance of the capital pun
ishment of an enemy spy in this
country, yet we have been infested
with them. Nominal confinement in
comfortable hotels at government ex-
pense. or in more fragrant cases, Sc
|gregation in commodious stockades,
fed to repletion and provided with
pleasant recreations. have spelled the
hard lot of these villaneous agents.
A few months before we got into the
war at least our Democratic cam
paign manager was hob nobbing with
those agents in German beer halls,
and the kept US out OF war" gallery
was planted in those German stems.
And then we had the notewriting
contests between the president and
the kaiser with the Democratic press
deciding the president the winner In
each diplomatic victory Finally
when the American public would
brook no further insult, we went to
war and then delayed six months
getting in.
1--WE have no quarrel with the
German people. said Mr.. Wilson.
Ask the soldiers of the American Ex-
peditionary Forces If that is true. Ev-
cry soldier who fought against the
kaiser's hosts and who witnessed his
diabolical war methods demands his
punishment and SO done every red
blooded American who contributed TO
the defeat which apparently Mr.. Will
son seeks 20 minimize. II Mr. VIII
sons Intervention saves the hide of
Butcher Bill. there is but one reply
to make to his unauthorized assertion
on behalf of the American people.
namely. He had NO quarrel with the
German Kaiser"

DUN'S REVIEW.

New York, April 1S.-Dun's tomor-
row will say:
With all its lack of uniformity.
commercial news gives tangible rea-
son for announcement and optimism
and even poorest reports suggest no
basic weakness. Considering the for
mldable problems of readjustment. it
Is far from strange that sharp con-
trasts are still presented. nor do the
divergent conditions in trades and in
dustries obscure the fact that the
main movement is steadily forward
Nhere the gain is merely slight and
unconVincing, or where none what
ever appears, the retarding elements
are both economic and political in
character, and it becomes increasing
ly clear that the broader business de-
Nelopment waits largely on the actual
cohsummation of the peace treaty 1t
is significant, however, that whereas
special stress was recently put on the
various uncertainties and obstacles
now the emphasis is on the hopeful
and constructive aspects, and the
change of sentiment marks a distinct
advance toward the attainment of
the full measure of progress which
seems to be plainly foreshadowed.

WEEKLY WOOL REVIEW,

Boston, April 1S.-The Commercial
Bulletin tomorrow will say:
Prices in the Philadelphia sales
this week have been hardly as strong
as in the Boston sale last week and
Withdrawals have been heavier, but
the woods have been poorer, so that
on the whole there is little change in
the situation.
The market for fine grades is still
strong, but late buyers are not finding
It easy to get satisfactory deliveries
The foreign markets are all firm and
generally a little stronger. Some
buying on contract is reported from

throughout the state. In it he speaks
of rains and snow storms retarding
farm work Flowing and seeding of
spring wheat were checked and in the
northern and central counties further
loss of livestock occurred. Ranges
give unusual promise but stock over
the state is thin and needing feed.

reported safe, although peaches have
been probably lost in the Fort Sumner
and Espanola valleys. The following
are some of the local reports

done. Grass starting with fine pros

by giving Chamberlain's Cough Rem

liquify the tough mucus, making it

Asked what answer he had to make to the
contention of the operators that the con-
tract has not expired, Mr.. Lewis said:
Our contract read that it was to continue
IN effect during the period until the war
ended and not to exceed March 81, 1920.
The war is over. Our soldiers have re-
turned. All the government war agencies
are disbanded. A German vessel of war is
even now heading for New York, upon
peace mission In substance, form and
reality the war is ended, and our contract
has expired"
What right have you to ask SO large an
increase in wages as 90 per cent ?" he was
asked.
Well, now we are willing to stand on the
merit OF our proposal" he replied. "This
oO per cent increase is subject to negotia-
tons, as are all demands of the United
Coal Miners, but they will not even ne
gotiate"
Are the miners getting good wages now?"
During the past twelve months the miners
OF the United States have averaged only
SIS month, or $500 for the entire period
lhe men have worked on an average less
than three days week since the armistice
was signed. Men with families cannot live
on this amount
Children in the mining camps are un-
dernourished. This is a matter of life and
death to the women and children of the
miners families as well as it is to the pub
lie. Charity begins at home"
Asked why the miners were asking for
slx-hour day Mr.. Lewis said
Our aim is to make shorter WORKING
period and to distribute the work over more
days during the year. The miners of Eng
land have a seven-hour day from bank to
bank, which means from the time thew leave
the surface of the ground until thew get
back.
Miners in the United States have an
elght-hour day but that doesn't count until
they get to the face of the coal. They are
IN reality working nine and half hours
a day."
According to the Mine Workeys Journal
the official publication of the organization.
the strike, if it transpires, will affect the
partially organized fields of central Pen
nsylvanla, parts of West Virginia, ex-
