Here are some things have learned:
There is no strike of miners here. Seventy
five per cent of the mines about Williamson are
IS per cent closed because the owners have in
stituted lockout against every workman who
joins the union.
About seventeen of the 62 mining companies
about Williamson have broken away from the
lockout employers and are now operating in harm
mony with the union.
All the others which pretend to operate at
all are heavily guarded by armed gunmen usually
affiliated with the Baldwin-Feltz Detective
Agency union organizer who tries to approach
such mine is likely to be killed and almost
certain to be beaten up
Any miner who gives up his job at one of
these guarded mines and tries to escape through
the Gordon santare" to the free world outside is
beaten if caught and may be killed if he persists
in the effort Concrete illustrations of this condi
ton are abundant and will be cited in later
story.
The crux of the present situation and the
reason the troops were brought is this-the lock-
out and the lockin have both failed to break the
solidarity of the miners and restore the old
dictatorship of the operators.
The miners who have been locked out are
backed by monthly fund of 100000 provided
by the United Mine Workers of Al "ica and are
sure that victory will be theirs if only the United
States government will defend and preserve their
legal right to conduct meetings and continue the
work of peaceful organization.
The locked-in miners, brought here with out
knowing of the struggle which exists or believing
that conditions might prove tolerable after all,
usually run away at the first chance and have to
be extensively Gagged while they remain.
For the operators only one possible road to
victory remains. They must obtain martial law at
all COSTS
Martial law would put an end to the miners
meetings, stop peaceful organizing and frighten
the simple, illiterate population of these lost
mountains into belief that they must return to

GERMANS DELIGHTED BY
DEFEAT OF DEMOCRATS
Editors Assume That Incoming
Administration Will Keep Hands
Off in Europe.

Washington, Dec. German editors
are almost unanimous in the expression
Of satisfaction and relief at the approach
ing termination Of the Democratic regime
in the United States and especially M
the retirement Of President Wilson, al
though few Of them expect a more friendly
American policy toward Germany under
Senator Harding. This is disclosed In q
summary of prcss comment on the prob
able effect Of the early change Of admins
trations here on United States relations
with Germany.
German editors assume thaI the
tendency of the new admInistra tion will be
IN the direction of withdrawal of the
United States from participation In the
settlement Of European questions. Hope
is generally expressed that this, in turn
will mean only the speedy conclusion Of
peace with Germany.
Not all the comment Is complimentary
10 Harding For example. the Vossische
Leitung bluntlv states that ''ns far as
Harding himself II concerned. he has so
often changed his attitude toward the
principal problems which stir our hearts
that we cannot construct straight limo
regarding them
Contrasted with this is the declaration
of the Nationalist paper, Die Post that
''the American people will at last realize
that the United States, whose unjustihed
, interference In the war plunged Germany
INTO the abyss of nlisery, is IN duty bound
70 make moral reparatIon 70 the German
people.
The Deutsche Zeitung gives what is
characterized as the moro widely held
Nationalist view when its editor saws
IF the American business men demand
Impeachment with Germany, we shsl /
getit But we must not hope for America S
assistance against the exploitation op-
preston and evil treatment BY our west
ern enemies The former American en-
nifty will be exchanged for indifference
and reserve
The Nationalist organ Kreunseitung
warns is readers against believing blindly
the most wonderful reports concerning
the plans Of Harding which. the editor
states. doubtless will appear in American
newspapers during the coming months
In the ranks Of the Democrats more
optimism is expressed than in those Of the
other party organs The Berliner Tage-
blatt, for example saws: We think the
new President first message will contain
the announcement OF the instant cessation
Of the state Of war with Germany on the
strength Of a resolution by Congress
The Franl1furter Zeitung believes Amer
lea will again enter the domain Of world
politics as soon as the new President Is
inaugurated. "for America, a world
power il compelled TO consider the affairs

that Harding will not. like Wilson, con
