Senator Poindexter Discusses
The Issues of the Campaign

Europe, and to submit the interna-
tional affairs Of America to a tribunal
dominated by Europe.
:. The attention of the government
has been devoted to the settlement
OF suoA questions as that of Fiume.
with which, in the very nature Of
Things, we are not qualified to deal.
The result has been that. instead of
the harmony and friendship which
heretofore have existed between
America and our allies, we have
aroused their hostility by undertake
ing to dictate the settlement of their
local affairs, while at the same time
we have wholly neglected many Of
our own.
National Roads
National roads to serve the grow
ing needs of interstate commerce
and as essential aids OF military de-
tense in time of war are ignored ana
neglected as matters of mere Ameri-
can concern, while the President con-
centrates his attention on the de-
tails Of European politics.
Land Reclamation
An enlarged program of land
reclamation to meet the demands of
increasing population, to afford
homes for soldiers and others who
desire to settle upon the land, and to
thus add new wealth and production
to the resources of the nation, have
no attention from the head of the
administration because of his deep
absorption in the disposition of
Fiume or the government of the
Saar Basin.
Problems of Alaska
Alaska and it's government railway,
the vast potential wealth and oppor-
tunities of our great American ter
rltory, with its mines, forests, fish
cries and agricultural lands, lies
neglected and misgoverned, beyond
the notice Of the Executive, because
it is only part of America and lacks
the flavor of Europe, in this day of
international finance and interna-
tional governments. ~
American practical affairsSin the
great business of government, have
lost interest and attention in the
glamour of the scheme of interna,
tional finance through the league of
nations to secure the guaranty by
the United States Of the war debt of
Europe.
An issue of the campaign is the
Americanizing of the American gov
eminent, and the substitution of old
fashioned Americanism, aiding other
nations, but true to it's trust of plac-
ing first the needs and interests of
Its own people-instead of the old
imperialism, disguised in the new
cloak of internationalism.

lock in the conference here Of repre-
sentatives Of anthracite miners and
operators was seen yesterday, VIXEN
the miners representatives on the sub
committee intrusted with drawing up q
tentative draft put the issue squarely
up to the operators and modified their
demands to agree with the award made
by the Presidents coal commission in
the case of the soft coal miners.
The anthracite workers demand for
60 per cent increase for contract
miners and a 81 day raise for Gay
laborers was cut so per cent by the
miners representatives. By the award
of the Presidents coal commission the
soft coal miners were granted an IN
crease averaging so per cent for con-
tract miners and 81 day for day
workers. At the same time the de-
mand for six-hour day was cut to an
eight hour day to be extended to all
workers in the industry.
Other Demands Stand
None of the other fifteen demands
presented by the union was modified
in any way. These demands cover
working conditions, Standardization of
wages throughout the anthracite field,
payment for dead work" and the sale
to the men of dynamite and other re-
QuiSites at cost

hcatlons, 1T was declared, the miners

port of the Presidents commission
were described as an irreducible mini
mum. The object OF the miners is to
offer no loophole either for rejec-
ton of the wage increase or for pro-
longing the sessions of the conference.
Unless some action on the modified
demands is taken by the operators a
serious rupture of the conference may
result. BY some it is thought the
miners are preparing for break.
Members of the general scale COM
clared yesterday that a decision must
be reached by the conference this week.
They expressed doubt of thir ability
to hold their men in check beyond an
other pay day MAY i unless some
concrete settlement is made
Threats Of Strike Made
Although any wage increase which
may be decided on will be retroactive
to April i, the date on which the old
contract made in April, 1915, expired.
there has been a growing restlessness
among the workers, the union leaders
declared. They said there was con-
siderable sentiment for walk-out last
pay day, April Is. which was stemmed
only by the prompt action of the union
officials.
Several district leaders NJ tho yn;reru

turned to their homes yesterday to in

COAL BURNERS CONVENTION
There was a meeting of this usefui

our population held in this place on
the 18th instant. to take into consid-
Grafton the best manner of conduct
ing the business. and what means can
be adopted to keep the Mormons from
delivering charcoal to the shelters at
less than 80 cents per bushel. The
meeting was largely attended-strong
resolutions passed and the meeting
adjourned. The charcoal interest OF
this camp is very large, and a con-
siderable amount of capital Is invest
ed in its production. Some OF our
most enterprising citizens are large

tents, or wickie-ups-anything will
rent or sell thai will keep strangers
that are constantly amoying from the
heat of the sun and the cool nights.
Lumber is in demand and the sup
ply much less than needed.
RICH STRIKE-Johnson, McCul-
lock & Co. have struck a ledge on
Prospect Hill, foul miles from this
place. They are down ten feet and
have an assay of $3.50 silver and the
last workings show large quantities
of free gold. 1t bids fair to soon be
classed among the first mines OF the
district. We have a specimen in
which free gold can be seen, and will
assay in gold $500.
RECOyERED-On the 18th, A. Z.
O'Donnell of this place had a mule
stolen. The thief and mule were
traced toward Pinto and found about
seven miles from town. The mule
was brought back, but it is supposed
the thief was lost. as he has not been
heard of since. 1t is time some of
the fellows who are on the catch
should get a warning.
Observation-Disclosures & En-
nor have brought to Eureka, within
the last week, an even 100 passen-
gers and have taken from here As.
This stage line alone has increased
our population So within the week.
ACCIDENT-Mr. Blood, who was
working in a shaft about Is feet deep
in his mine, two and one-half miles
south of town, was injured by the
premature discharge of a blast. He
was blown out of the hole and from
IL to Is feet above the surface. He
was taken to the Parker House.
where DIR. Scott is treating him. He
is doing well and will be blowing
rocks again in a few days. 1t was a
fortunate escape.
