fher Aid, Says GoUernor.

CHARLESTON, w. Va. Feb. 15.-The
Federal troops on duty at Williamson
will move out tomorrow morning and
State troopers will take charge OF the
situation in that city, where the Mate
wan battle trial is in progress. In q
statement issued tonight Gov. John j
Cornwell said that he had been advised
by Secretary OF War Baker that the
soldiers would move out OH scheduled
time and that ne would rely upon what
state force we have to deal with the sit
uation."
The Governor denied that he had IN
formed Secretary Baker that the troops
were no longer needed at Williamson
and said he did not believe the War Sec
retary had made such O statement. Re-
ferring to the report that Senator How
ard Sutherland had stated that the
troops would be removed unless the
Governor requested their retention, Gov.
Cornwell said that he had strongly re-
quested the retention of the troops" both
to Gen. Read, commander OF the Fifth
Army Corps area. and to the Adjutant-
General OF the United States Army and
both had "fatly refused" him.
The Governor reiterated his statement
OF Sunday night that. so far as he is
concerned. there will be no further re-
quest made through the State Executive
Offices for retention of the troops.

HOWAT SAYS STRIKE
WAS TO HELP A BOY
Miners Called Ont to Get JUS
tice for Widow and Her
Son.

PrrrsgUR0, Kan, Feb 15.--Presenta-
ton of testimony at the hearing In Dis
trict Court of Alexander NJ Howat.
president Of the Kansas Mine Workers
Union. and five members Of the execu-
tive board. charged with contempt OF
court, IN calling a strike, was completed
late-to-day and Judge Andrew J. Curran
took the case under advisement.
To-day's hearing was ended with the
testimony of Howat, who occupied the
stand more than an hour, and who gave
his views on the Kansas Industrial court
and courts In general. He asserted the
belief that the Industrial court law Is
unconstitutional.
Questioned by the defence. Howat told
IN detail the reasons for calling the
strike which brought out men employed
in two shafts of the Mackie Coal Com
pany. He said II was called because the
company had refused to pay s225 back
wages alleged to be due to a young
miner with q widowed mother
Fred s. Jackson, attorney for the In
dustrial Court, then took up the Ques-
tioning or the witness. and. asked IL the
district board had considerd that the
calling OF the strike was In violation OF
the injunction and that II might end in
Jail sentence for the members. Howat
replied:
1--WE considered only one thing and
that was we were out for justice for
this boy and his widowed mother at
whatever the cost We did not believe
the injunction granted by Judge Curran
meant that these miners had to be
chained TO their jobs whether they were
paid or not. We believe that the IN
junction was aimed only to prevent a
general tieup OF all the miners such as
took place last winter
did you consider that justice might
be obtained without recourse to a
striker" ne was asked.
I'VE are not obliged under our con-
tract to go TO court for justice and Il
has never been our practice" said
Howat, 'to go to n court for wage set
Elements"
You say that you do not recognize
the industrial court because you believe
It to be unconstitutional. Would you
obey It's orders II Its constitutionality
were upheld by the Supreme Court?'
II will meet that when the time
comes." was the rejoinder
Friends Of the mine leader in the
courtroom broke into demonstration at
one point In his testimony. The Sheriff
threa tened TO clear the courtroom and
Howat urged the crowd to remain quiet

E. w. McMoster Talks
On School Discipline

Mr.. E. w. McMaster, superintend-
ent of our county schools, uttered
words the other day which will be
cheering to any teachers who are per-
picked by problems connected with
their school government. He said
none must be afraid to enforce good
order, for that in all cases of neces-
sary correction, justly and wisely adj
ministered, he would most firmly
stand by and back up his teachers.
Their thanks are due him for that
declaration. Many school children
are growing up unmannerly, lawlcss
and immoral. The modern juvenile
spirit is aptly expressed by one who
says that, while once scholars would
show courtesy to passers, now one may
count himself we'll off If he gets past
without being hit by brick bat.
There is crying need for a change.
Moral suasion alone, in the present
state of human nature, will be insult
ficient. Corporal punishment though
it must ever be last resort, will
sometimes be absolutely necessary.
