There was no time to argue or debate
Mary Tanner bravely begged her hus-
band to leave her for the sake Of the
children and his mother"

MINERS WILL FIGHT

Long Delayed Claims.

CLEVELAND, Sept. s.-Demand for
wage increases and shorter hours strong
insistence that these claims which had
been deferred during the war could no
longer be delayed, but must be forced
through to a successful issue, domi-
mated the deliberations of the opening
session of the convention OF the United
Mine Workers of America here to-day.
Over two thousand delegates con-
shutting the largest miners convention

ments concluded for the period of hos
Titles but must press demands which

to embarrass the Government during the
war. His declaration that no inter-
ference could be tolerated from any
agency seeking to prevent the accom-
plisbment of the miners programme was
received with the same enthusiasm, as
was his expression Of fullest confidence
that the miners efforts would ne success
ful; even in the face of strong opposition
and anticipated public criticism from va
rious quarters.
Second only to wage demands in evok-
ing applause were references to the high
| cost of living, q burst Of general hand
clapping greeting the first use Of this
phrase in the presidents report. Hearty
enthusiasm too was evoked by uncom-
promising denunciations by various
| speakers of the principle OF compulsory
arbitration.
The question OF the naturalization of
coal mines on the other hand evidently
was of less burning interest to the
delegates.
No dissent was heard when Mr.. Lewis
denounced the /. w. W., the 'one big

upon 'fantastical ideas OF misguided

Accompanying yesterdays numerous

orally.

Haokett OF Washington, d. C. Every
American father and mother feels that
the world Is better for such an example
Of devotion. Those children have a heri-
tage that is beyond price. 1 hope a
poet may consecrate this act by lines
worthy of the glorious character of the
sacrifice"
william w. ]. Warren, 1919 Lafayette
street, likens the sacrifice that william
Tanner made and that Mrs. Tanner
would have made to the sacrifice that
Mrs. Isador Stratus made when she chose
to die with her husband on the Titanic
rather than take to the lifeboats when
he could not accompany her.
I'VE poor mortals do not often get the
opportunity to contribute to such rare
and noble cause as this one" writes
Charles ]. Ronfeldt. "One can clearly
understand what flashed through the
mind of William Tanner when his wife
cried to save himself. Let us hope that

dren of William and Mary Tanner"
One of the striking contributions was

TT is fixed Packard principle that price is
incident to quality.
Price advances in Packard cars are never
made Cor any other reason than to maintain the
highest standards
1t used to be the fashion among manufacturers
to think that quality was matter of materials
to think that it could be maintained solely by pur-
chasing high grade steel and lumber and fittings.
The Packard people have always held that the
spirit of the artisan is equally important and
confident that the advantage the Packard owner
gets in the performance of his car is largely
matter of the quality Of workmanship and the
spirit of the workman.
A Packard price advance is interesting to the
present Packard ownerbecauoeit draws attention to
the cash value of his investment in transportation.
We know of no motor car which brings today
such high percentage of its purchase price

Program Includes Twenty Rounds of Boxing with a Ten-Round Main Event, a Six-Round Semi-Final and Four-Round Opener

After a series of disappointments and misfortunes that would discourage a less courageous group of men, the Phoneix Trades Council has prepared a boxing program for tonight that gives promises on being on a par with other events fo this nature held in Phoenix. The program will be given at Arcadia hall starting at o'clock sharp.
 At the last moment, the club suc- ceeded in securing the services Of Ralph McMott of Los Angeles to meet lefty Lewis, local favorite lightweight in the main event of the evening. These lightweights will go over the 10-reund route.
 This will be DeMot's first appear ance in this section of the state, but he is rgarded as a high class performer He recently went 10 rounds with Al McManus at Tucson, the latter being given the decision. Newspapermen present, however, credited DeMott with a draw, saying his aggressive method and his hard hitting entitled him to an even break.
 Of course, all Phoenix boxing fans are more or less closely acquainted with Lefty's work in the ring. His bout tonight will be something on the order of the trail heat for him, to de- termine whether or not he is able to regain the form that once made him one of the best second class light weights in the country.
 Lefty hasn't participated in any ring battles for the past several months but before his retirement, he fought and won many hard contests against high class opponents. Some of his oppon-
