WOULD ABOLISH COSSACKS.

Charleston, w. ", Feb. 1o.-Another attempt to abolish the cossack system has been launched in the state legislature by Senator Hill. It is shown that the major part of the $45O, O,0O0 appropriation m 1921 for the cossack was expended in two coal counties and that B counties had no occasion to call these troops
 In the fiscal year ending June 30, 1922, the cossacks made 4,8O4 arrests. Vir-- tually all the men and women taken into custody were from the coal fields of Logan and one other county.
 Senator Hill is collecting mass of affidavits by both men and women who have been brutally treated by the cos sacks. One of these affidavits, signed by Roy Rector, istypical:
 "On the second day of June I was at home, and the state police and deputy gunmen came about o'clock in the even ing to Lick Creek tent colony and ar rested me; the state police that arrested me throwed his rifle on me and told me to stick up my hands, that he had or ders from his headquarters not to speak to no man but to shoot them down where ever he found one; so they arrested g ot us and put us into the city hall with out bed to sleep in, from Sunday morning until Wednesday.
 Rector further swears that the cos sacks then returned to the tent colony and cut the tents, destroyd the grub, poured kerosene oil in a churn of milk, broke up dishes and rocking chairs, SO my wife and three year old baby had to go without anything to eat from break tast until some time that night, and then she had to go to Williamson to the United Mine Workers office to get money to buy something and I was in Welch jail at that time, and on the23d day, of the month they brought me back to Williamson and released me with no charges against me-"
