Chicago, ILL.,. Nov. 3.-Developments
today in the strike of more than 425,-
600 soft coal miners throughout the
country were expected to clarity the
situation to the extent of determining
whether production was to be stopped
indefinitely in Il large part Of the btu
minous field. or whether any consider
able number of workers were. willing to
return to work
No Plan to Open Mines.
No plans have been made for opening
any of the mines with imported labor,
and old men who return to work are to
he treated as though they had never
laid down their tools, according to
Thomas T. Brewster. chairman of the
coal operators scale committee.
Union leaders, who were temporarily
restrained by the Federal Court at

the order, but whether plans have been
discussed regarding modifying the

General Palmer today informed coal
miners who protested against the strike
injunction that the government stood
ready to do everything in its power
to facilitate an inquiry into the merits
of the controversy, but in the meantime
the law must be enforced and cOmb-
ma atoms to stop production can not be
tolerated.
Mr.. Palmers statement, made in re-
ply to a telegram from the union local
at Glencoe, Ohio. to President Wilson,
was taken to indicate that no attempt
would be made by the government to
settle the wage controversy until the
strike was called off.

WILLARD IS NAMED
TO HEAD DRAINAGE WORK

E. V. Willard of st. Paul has been
appointed state commissioner OF
drainage and waters under the new
1919 law. Governor Burnquist is-
sued the commission for a four-year
term. Mr.. Willard has been acting
state drainage engineer since 1913
when he succeeded George A. Ralph,
having been promoted after seven
years service as deputy.
The old law created the state
drainage commission to supervise the
drainage of state lands. The new
law widens the scope of the commits
sion's operation, imposing many ad-
ditional duties. The board is au-
thorized now to act in an advisory
and consulting capacity to all drain
age officials in the state, and is given
powers to conduct Typographical
and Autographed Investigations OF
different water sheds in Minnesota.
1t Is made the duty Of the commits
sioner of drainage and water to study
flood control, and to conduct original
research to determine proper capa-

Not Worth a Rooster.

Having lived next door to the home
If minister, was often called In to
witness hasty wedding
On one occasion the prospective
bride and bridegroom arrived in a
farm wagon. After the ceremony was
duly performed the bridegroom asked
to be excused just moment, and on
returning from his wagon he said:
"Parson. I have no money to give you
but here is nice young rooster for
your Thanksgiving dinner, and will
bring you turkey for Christmas"
On several occasions the minister
saw the same man in town. who
seemed to avoid him. One day on
meeting him face to face he said:
"Parson, I may as well tell you that
am NOT going to bring that turkey; I
have found out she was not even
worth the rooster I gave you."--Chi.
