"Wilson is extremely anxious to
get into the league" Plott said.
"They offer to make any reasonable
requirements Of the league and are
anxious to put up guarantees that
they will support the club. Wilson
is in the heart of rich oil field

.tDniteu freSS starr correspondent
Charleston, w. Va. April 22.-Up
here in the peaceful hills overlook
ing the beautiful Shenandoah valley,
far from the batreds and feuds of
the West Virginia mine war country,
more than 200 miners were gathered
today awaiting trials starting Mon
day on charges ranging from as
sault to murder and treason-the
outgrowth Of the miners march on
Longan county last summer.
Upon the outcome of their trials
in the ancient court house where
John Brown Of Kansas, Harper's
Ferry raider. was sentenced to
death more than sixty years ago,
will rest to considerable degree
the future Of unionism and 'oper-
atorism' in this state of strife.
Has Historic Setting.
Five blocks from the court house
John Brown was hanged for murder
and treason after his band had at
tackled Harpers Ferry. The same
charges face some of the miners,
with the death penalty possibility
Men who know the mine fields
predict dire doings, whether these
defendants are freed or convicted.
The United Mine Workers, with
virtually every leader of their or
ganization in West Virginia on trial,
and the operators of the state are
preparing for titanic legal strug-
gle over the principles of unionism.
The first contingent of men for
trial came into this little village of
1000 people last night on the
miners special"
Operators Take Hotels.
In addition to the 200 defendants
now here there are hundreds Of wit
nesses and more prisoners are ex-
pected before Monday. Where to
park" everybody is the villages
big problem.
The operators have virtually taken
over the best hotels here, with re-
serve accommodations at Harper's
Ferry. The miners and their fami-
lies have taken to the hills and
are "at home"
Scores of white tents now dot the
hills, which spring is planting with
beautiful pale green. The, United
Mine Workers are trying to make
them comfortable.
The town jailer, Brook Alder, is
all agog about having 300 men in his
prison, which for the last few
months has harbored only one pris-
oner.
Jaller Is Het Up.
"Once in, they're safe,p he said.
mo breaks here short Of an acety-
lene torch or dynamite"
The prisoners destined for the
iail are due early Sunday morning.
They are men who were unable to
furnish bond.
Rumors are current that troops or
state police will come in to guard
against ,trouble, but they have not
yet appeared.
Among the leading defendants are
Frank Keeney, president, and Fred
Mooney, secretary of the United
Mine Workers, district II. They are
charged with treason Il attling
against the state. Most of the men
on trial are unionists and the United
Mine Workers are backing them to
the limit.

Washington. April 22.--The spring

bonus would be allowed to become
n political football I'm congress, TO
be kicked back and forth in parti-
san debate. without any real prog.
ress being made.
Would Check Democrats.
The republicans have been fully
aroused TO the threat OF democratic
leaders to take over the bonus legis-
lation as a democratic campaign
asset. Accordingly. republicans are
now determined that they will meet
the bonus squarely. act on II with
out delay, and take the consequences
as they may be.
They are also determined that
the bonus bill must not impose new
taxes on the people at this time.
II must, however. carry the means
for paying the ex-service men en-
titled to its benefits. Therefore, the
plan of issuing treasury certificates
OF indebtedness is daily gaining
more support. In the end, money
must be raised somewhere to retire
the certificates ii they are issueds
But many republicans, including
Senator McCumber, finance commit
tee chairman, believe that other
means can be found than taxes.
Bonus on Main Line.
Mccumber today indicated the be-
lief that economies In appropria-
tions will, go long way towards
for the bonus. The ship
subsidy, the good roadsf appropfia-
tion and other similar funds may
therefore be refused by congress for
the present to make possible the
payment of the bonus in cash. This
Of course, will cause strenuous oppo-
sition from subsidy advocates and
those interested in the good roads
President Harding will
be urged to insist on the subsidy
bill being passed this session. But,
In the, view Of those who attended
The recent republicans caucus, the
bonus pledge must be redeemed by
the party, while other things must
wait.
The idea of the republican lead
ers is to tide themselves over next
year. BY that time they expect the
funding of the foreign war debt and
tax revenues due to a
volume of business, to make
their financial problem much simp-
Ter.
