n commission to consider differences
between the bituminous coal miners
and operators, in accordance with the
peace plan proposed by Attorney Gen

nce have already been received, 1t

Henry M. Robinson Of Pasadena,
CAL, to represent the public.
John p. White, q former president
Of the United Mine Workers, to speak
for the workers.
Rembrandt Peale, q Pennsylvania
mine operator, to guard the interests
of the operators.
Immediately after the personnel Of
the commission was announced and a
letter to its members made public,
stating that both miners and operators
had agreed to submission of Neir diff
~ferences to such a tribunal, the execu-
tive committee of the bituminous coal
operators issued a statement denying
that they had agreed to -uch a basis
for settlement of the strike as the
president had outlined and stating
that they had not been consulted as to
the terms and conditions Of the agree
ment.
The attitude of. the operators was
taken as q clear Indication that they
may ~repudiate the whole peace plan
undertaken by the president and the
attorney general.

SENATORS or BOTH POLITICAL
PARTIES ARE DISSATISFIED
WITH THE DELAY.
NOTICE IS SERVED ON LODGE
Mid Reservation Republicans Declare
They VIII Act independently with
Democrats Unless Some Form Of
Compromise Is Offered.

Washington, ID. C.-Dissatisfied with
the progress made toward solution Of
the peace treaty tangle, senators OF
both political parties moved to bring
greater pressure on their party lead
ers for a compromise to insure rati-
ication promptly or the reassembling
OF congress early In January.
The mild reservation group OF re-
publicans, notifying their party leader,
Senator Lodge, OF Massachusetts,. chat
in their opinion the time has come
20 part company with the i%rreconcil-
able foes of the treaty. declared that
unless compromise negotiations got
more ~wholehearted support from the
republican side they were preparing to
act Independently for an agreement
with the democrats.
Democrats Restless
Among the democrats, the nov
ment was not so well defined, but
criticism OF the course Of President
Wilson and Senator Hitchcock, Of Ne.
braska, the acting democratic leader.
reached proportions which some pre-
dicted soon would be given tangible
form. One prominent democratic
senator was said to have told the re
publicans that more than thirty of the
forty-seven on that side would join
q movement to ratify the treaty at
once on the best terms they could get.
The result was a scrambled situa'
ton in both party organizations which
the leaders seemed confident they
could straighten out but which the
compromise advocates predicted would
greatly strengthen the movement for
a bipartisan conference OF those de-
termined to ratify the treaty even at
the expense OF material concessions
on both sides.
The feeling among those who are
ready to 20 ahead without their lead
srs seemed to be that the treaty dead
lock already had been prolonged un'
necessarily by too much no compro-
mise talk, and that both sides had
overplayed a waiting game In the hope
that q break would come In the op
position.
Press FOR Action.
After their conference Sunday with
Senator Lodge. the mild reservation
republicans seemed confident that he
would take the initiative, IL necessary,
N carrying the compromise negotia-
tions forward. On Monday he saw
Senator Underwood. OF Alabama, q
prominent democrat advocate OF a
compromise. but 1t was said that their
talk got nowhere.
Meantime 1t became known that the
irreconcilahle group OF republicans
had been bringing pressure to bear to
induce the party leader not to consent
to any compromise proposals which
did not meet their approval. Senator
Johnson, OF California. one Of the lead.
ers of this group. telegraphed that he
would change his plans and return to
the capital from his home state next
week.

The beginning of almost every SER

want to enjoy good health keep your
bowels regular. This is best accom-
plished by proper diet and exercise,
but sometimes medicine is needed,

find Chamberlain's Tablets are excel

NORMAL
EXTENSION WORK
Demand Proving So Great That
Special Class Is Organized
For Nicholasville.

While Madison county is turning
out an immense number of teachers
for schools in this and other states,
there is an extension course in the
way of correspondence school that
is attracting wide attention, since
there are many inquiries being made
regarding the &c subjects offered and
about 100 courses already are record
/ ed, although this is the first year for
this feature of the work.
The new departure, which the Off
cials Of Eastern Normal state prom
ises to become one of the most i'm
portant and extensive in the future,
enables teachers to acquire this addi-
tional knowledge while at home, the
work being inspected>and passed upon
by an able and well organized instruc-
tor corps. This, it isc laimed, does
away with the liability of much waste
and mi5directed effort that oftentimes
accompanies home study. One of the
professors of the school stated today
the percentage of study at home was
increasing steadily, and the organiza-
ton of an efficient corps of instruc-
tors to judge the work and direct in
structior was responsible for it's sue
cess to great degree.
Prof. ]. r. Robinson, in charge of
this department, in speaking of the
extraordinary degree of success ac-
companying the new venture, explain
ed that the fact was being recognized
by many teachers that they could
remain at their schools and at the
same time acquire the coveted knowl-
edge along the various lines, of
which there are 25 at present. The
list grows and endorsement of the
state educational board is expected,
since the same textbooks are used as
are used in the high schools of this
and other cities. There will be an
extensive class at Nicholasville, COM
prising students from that city and
vicinity, as a result of the favor with
which the new measure has been ac-
copied. There will be regular classes
held there under the supervision Of
Superintendent Smith, of the Nichol-
asville schools, and it is probable that
other classes will be started within
short time elsewhere.

BIG STEEL BEAMS ARE
HOLDING UP WORK NOW

The failure of the big Bethlehem
steel beams for the dornnitory fol
boys at Eastern Normal to arrive is
holding the work slightly. although
there is an additional depth being
made to the basement, which will
furnish a practice gym, as well as ar
ideal place for physical education
during the winter months. This val
liable addition will admit of the boys
receiving instructions and exercise in
their own building and will be one OF
1.-THE most modern to be found.
The excavation work on the dor1ni-
tory for girls continues and this
structure will be completed as soon
as possible, thereby adding very ma
terially to the reservation capacity
These are but two of the extended
improvements at the big institution
this year.
