ion, and these must be weeded out
before a change in the situation can
be brot about.
Young Miners.
The first to feel the brunt Of this
situation in the mining regions are
the young miners. Turnout the btu
minous area the young miners, togeth-
er with the old, have fought well, but
operator and union official combined
whipped them.
The issue comes to a showdown
soon. The International elections will
soon be held and the miners, young
and old, will write their decision II
their union is to be wrecked irrepara-
bly, or to be saved. The youth have
nothing to hope for from the Lewis
administration. The organized youth
in the mines know that the Lewis ad-
ministration has ruthlessly expelled
the leading youth elements In the U.
M. w. of A, for no other reason than
that the youth opposition challened
the right of the administration to
wreck the miners organization. In
practically every convention Of the
United Mine Workers OF America
there appear youth delegates bent
upon fighting in the convention for
changes in the organizations law or
policies affecting the youth. No at
tention is paid to the issues Of the
youth, and their representatives are
steam-rollered by the machine in
power.
Relnstate Youth.
No attention is paid by the machine
to the youth miners, this very large
section of the miners. It is from this
element that the future leadership Of
the union comes, but the machine
hangs on, and on, bent upon smashing
anyone who opposes their suicidal pol
icies. The union is in danger Of ex-
tinction. The youth shall not permit
this. In the coming election the youth
must wreck the Lewis machine and
sweep into office the opposition ticket
in the election. The opposition ticket,
Notwithstanding its many differences
of opinion, viii fight for the organisar
ton of the youth In the unorganiEed
regions and the proper recognition Of
the youth in the organised territory.
The opposition is pledged to fight for
the reinstatement Of all expelled mill
tants, expelled by the Lewis machine,
and among those Of the expelled are
three of the youth leaders.
The United Mine Workers OF Amer
lea must be democratiged. The hawk
eye censorship maintained over the q.
M. w. of A. Journal, official publica-
ton of the union, must be eliminated
and freedom of expression of the rank
and file permitted thru the columns
More than that, the union must pro-
vide for a youth section in this Jour
nal.

Horse Killed by
Poison, Skowhegan
Farm Friday Night

Early Friday evening, while Mr..
and Mrs. Fred Sanborn, who manage
the large stock farm of Marshall
Viles, were eating supper, some per-
son or persons entered the barn and
placed poison in the grain of the
horses. One of the animals ate the
grain and died Immediately but be-
cause of the fact that the poison had
been mixed with vinegar the other
three horses refused to eat and were
saved. No reason can be attributed
to the act as both Mr. Sanborn and
Mr.. Viles are we'll liked and can re-
call no enemies who would do a deed
of this kind. Several clues, which
cannot be mentioned at this time, are
being traced and it is expected that
the parties will be brought to justice.
There is a feeling that possibly the
deed wa the act of an insane person
because of several peculiar circum-
stances connected with the case. Mr..
Niles farm is situated at the junction
of the Lakewood and East Madison
roads just north of the village.
There will be a federated meeting
OF the Woman's Club, Town Improve
