BOND ISSUES CARRIED
Lipht Vote But Citizens Approve All
Bond Issues and Change of
Charter.

The four special elections in the
city on Tuesday. The registration
before the election was light, less
than a hundred voters having quail
fed. The separate elections were
for the following objects: On the
question of voting $4,000 in bonds
to refund the bonded debt on the
opera house; the voting of $4,000
in bonds to pay for the motor fire
truck and other fire equipment; the
voting of $4,000 in bonds to take
up the floating debt of the city, and
the voting on surrendering the char
ter of the city and chartering un-
der the general law. The purpose OF
the latter is to enable the city at any
time to change it's tax levy with legls-
lative enactment, the trouble here
tofore being that the levy authorized
by the charter was too small to pro-
vide sufficiently for current expenses;
which explains the lack of city I'M
provements.
In all four cases the election went
in the affirmative, the vote being as
follows:
For issuing bonds to refund
opera house bonds. ......... So

COAL MINERS REMAIN
AWAY FROM WORK
Pending New Agreement On Wages-
Speedy Peace Move

Washington. Nov. 12--The ap-
parent unwillingnes Of all union coal
miners to return to work at the old
pay scale caused government officials
to put forth every effort today to
bring. about immediate negotiation
of new wage agreement.
Secretary Wilson, without waiting
for formal acceptance of his offer to
mediate the differences, began
smoothing the way for the joint con-
ference of miners and operators he
has called to meet in Washington
Friday.
Both sides notified the Labor Secre-
tary that they would attend the con-
ference, spokesinen for the mine
workers said that if the mine owners
came in Il spirit of eonciliation new
agreement could be framed and rati-
fed by Saturday night.
Little Hope Of Full Production.
Until an agreement is formally ac-
cepted by the miners scale commit
tee, labor leaders said there was little
hope of full resumption of coal pro-
duction.
It was because of this possibility
and the steady drain meanwhile on
the nations visible coal supply that
Secretary Wilson undertook today to
induce some of the miners and opera
tors to see the other fellows side.
The indicated continued suspension
of mining activity in union fields to-
day was not a surprise to government
officials, nor accepted as an actual
test of the attitude of the miners.
Complete distribution Of the order
cancelling the strike might take some
time, it was said. It was felt, how
ever, that a large number Of paen
still might remain out until assured
that some of the demands agreed
upon in convention would be granted.
Change of Sentiments.
Labor leaders who have frankly. .ad-
mitted that public sentiment was
strongly against the strike, took COM
fort today from what they describ-
ed as seeming change of sentiment
as reflected in newspaper editorials.
Messages to labor headquarters stated
that the feeling was growing that the
miners were entitled to higher
wages.
Secretary Wilson, while declining
to discuss the outlook for speedy
peace in the coal fields, was greatly
encouraged at the readiness Of the
two sides to meet and make deter
mined effort to frame a wage sche-
dule satisfactory to miners and
operators alike. Mr.. Wilson was
quite hopeful of success and this
feeling was shared by most officials.
