OF the United Mine Workers Of

Obviously the most important Of
these points are numbers 8 and 3.

The coaf operators will fight tooth

union will fight with equal deter

Orgy of Hate.

On the fateful day OF the Mate
wan Battle Albert and Lee Felts,
with a party Of fellow-detectives,
evicted number of union miners
nearby. Excitement ran high. The
whole population of the little min
ing town was incensad. Al, the
long pent-up haired against the de-
tectives rushed to the fore. Ugly
stories made the rounds of alleged
brutality displayed by the evicti1g
detectives, especially against wom-
en- and children. There was dis
pute over their legal right TO evict.
After the evic:ions tie detectives
had to go to Matawaii to catch It
train. There they were met BY Sid
Hatfield, the young chief Of police
Of the town. There were words, at
first polite, "joshing," as is the Gus
tom there before a storm; then bit
ter, insulting. A crowd collected,
and suddenly the blood orgy was on.
1t lasted a minute and half, after
which seven detectives and three
townsmen, including c. c. Tester

which in turn caused the Indictment
of two dozen men on murder charg-
es setting the stage for the "Tr1g-
ger Trials" the second Of which is
now under way in the little Mingo
court house at Williamson, w. Va.
Briefly, this Is what happened:
Miners lost their Jobs bacuse they

tating for the union. Now the coal
OPERATOR furnish lodging to the min
ers in comfortable little block houses
called Company houses" A condi-
ton exists there that dates back to
the pioneer days and may lie summed
up under the ancient tcrm OF mas
ter and servant agreement.
The operators argue that when
miner Is through" working for
them, then, from that moment on he
has no longer The light to live In a
Company house. They compare
his status to that OF maid or a
chauffeur or a butler; once these
servants quit or are discharged they
have to get out"
In the majority OF cases that has
been understood by both sides, and
miners, after being through" have
peacefully moved out; in other cases
the courts were appealed to. and the
result in the end WAS the same. The
trouble began when Baldwin Felts
detectives undertook to evict tardy
examiners by force.
To quote from the coal operators
brief:
Mine houses are as much incident
to the business of mining coal as
are tipples, or as are desks in an
office. The courts have so held. Oc-
cupancy Of the house by the miner
is mere incident to his employ
ment. and his right to such occu
pancy ends when his employment
ceases Under this law the mine
owner has the right to eyict any
minor wrongfully retaining the oc-
cupancy of the house after BIS en-
ployment has ceased. provnls1 sueh

You chew Grape-Nuts thoroughly.
The rich, sweet favor Of Grape-Nuts
is the reward of chewing. Nature
meant the teeth to be used. Primitive
people, who keep the natural teeth
sound and perfect to old age, are eat
ers of food which requires chewing.
Grapefruit gives the teeth work to do.
Perhaps you remember little OF

is thoroughly chewed - and the first
important step in digestion is taken.

Nuts all the essentials provided by
nature in these grains are retained

process which produces Grape-Nuts
turns the grains starches into natural

The exceptional nourishnlsrt from

Penalties for mistakes
When the doctor, as the mechanical
expert of the bodily machine, comes
to give advice in case Of trouble, he
finds that harm as we'll as good, often
has resulted from food.
"Starchy" foods have been the sub
ject Of many warnings. Food which
passes too slowly through the digest
i've tract causes disturbances to which
much of the slowing down, wearing
out, and failure Of the bodily machine
is traced.
A characteristic of Grape-Nuts is
that it digests quickly and completely
without fermentation in the intestines.
A World Service
There is, therefore, reason why,
throughout the world, Grape Nuts

You can apply that reason to your
