AS VICIOUS AND
UNDEMOCRATIC

to Ratify Proposed
Constitution.
Special to The Times.

COLUMBUS, Ind, Sept. 3-Declaring
the proposed constitution of the Indiana

and undemocratic and will take away the
right of school teachers to direct their
own affairs, the teachers of Bartholomew
County unanimously refused to ratify
the constitution, when the question was
put to vote at the closing of the County
Teachers Institute here. The resolu-
ton of refusal read as follows:
we, the teachers of Bartholomew
County, refuse to ratify the proposed
constitution Of the Indiana Teachers As
ISOLATION:
Because 1t is a return to the delegate
system, which was tried before the con
5tituton Of 1854 was adopted, and was
unsuccessfgul, because unfair to teach
ers.
Because it is vicious In that influences
political and professional. can be brought
to bear upon the rank and file OF the
teachers in selecting delegates locally.
Because 1t is undemocratic In that
three members of the executive commit
tee take from $4,000 teachers their money
yearly to use as they see fit, with no
court of appeal
Because II will take from the public
school teachers the right to direct their
own business affairs in their State ASSOC
citation and destroys their initiative, just
beginning to be realized and condemn
them to a continued position Of servil-
ity in the eyes Of the professional
world"
The teachers in all counties Of the
State will be called upon to vote on the
proposed constitution before the State

We beg you to inform yourself on the
amendments and not only to 90 to the
polls yourself, but to interest others to
accompany you.
If women are not active and inter
ested in this election they will face this
responsibility: That basic law may be
adopted by a very small group of PEG
pie and that by inaction and indifference
this small group of people may be al
lowed to make or remake our Indians
constitution.
There are some of the amendment,
which individuals of US favor or oppose
but We are all united in support Of
No. l, the amendment which requires

Want to See Justice
in MingO Trials and
ORGANIZE the Field

MADISON, w. Va, Sept. 3.-"And
what's it all about?"
This was the question a CORE
spondent asked one of the grim, de-
termined men leading the miners
army, sitting by a campfire not far
from the front this morning.
why are you and your comrades
going or this march?"
The lie. i r, whose name for obvious
reasons 4 mot be given, hesitated,
then answered:
II reckon there are many different
reasons. But l think l speak for
most of the men when L say that
we want to get to Mingo County by
next Tuesday and see that justice Is
done in the trials to begin then.
THAT isn't all, however" the lead
er continued. I'VE want to put an
end to the mine guard system and
the Baldwin Felts detectives In the
coal mining regions. We want the
fellows who are working here to have
a chance to organize, so that our
mines won't be idle while these 'scao'
mines are running full time. The
men want to come in, but they're
afraid"
"And will you go home when Fed
eral troops get here?"
We're not fighting Uncle SAM"
was the answer. We're fighting
hoggish operators and mine thugs
and spies. They're the fellows We
are after Many of US fought in tho
army overseas. 1 did myself, but
this isn't what we fought for, and
we hope that when the troops get
here they'll see that we get a square
deal"
