BRINGS
DESTITUTION TO
AN EASTERN TOWN

Moweaqua, ILL.,, Dec. 26.---
The last spark of hope that
some of the 81 miners entomb-
ed by an explosion Saturday in
the Moweaqua communi ty
mine might still be found alive
was definitely quenched tonight
when weary rescure workers
ceased their activities until to-
morrow morning.
Fourteen of the "a were still
in the mine, believed to be as
phyxiated or crushed to death
behind a barricade that rescue
crews erected soon after they
entered the wrecked diggings
Saturday. Thirty-nine bodies
were taken from another Sec
tion of the mine.
John NJ. Millhouse, state di-
rector of mines and minerals,
who commanded the rescue
efforts, put a definite end to
hopes for the remaining IA.
Many of the 40 victims OF
Saturdays explosion in the
Shafer mine at Moweaqua, ILL.,,
were buried Tuesday, while the
search for the bodies of IA
others continued in the mine.
Funeral corteges made an al,
most continuous procession
through the streets, nearly
everyone representing the loss
of provider from the family

REPORT SHOWS STATE
FAIR WAS A SUCCESS

In its report to Gov. W. P.
Hunt of its activities from July
l toNov. 80, 1882, which period
included the 1882 State Fair,
the Arizona State Fair Com
mission made known that it had
a credit balance of $12084.00.
This balance includes cash on
hand, funds remaining to the
Fair Commission in the opera
tion and salary funds appropri-
ated by the legislature, and ac-
counts receivable.
In announcing the credit bal
ance, members of the commits
sion pointed out that the State
Fair this year, in spite of state
wide economic conditions and a
reduction in admission price by
one-half of what has been charg-
ed in former years, was one of
the most successful, both from
the standpoint of finances, and
from attendance and displays,
that has ever been held in Ari-
zona.
"The report to the Governor
MEANS" said one of the COM
missioners, "that after all our
bills are paid, which will include
premiums to all winners in all
departments, there remains to
the credit of the State Fair
Commission the sum of S12,-
084.08 on Nov. 80, 1882. The
only expenses to be paid from
this amount will be the operat-
ing and maintenance expense
between November 80, 1882 and
June 80, 1888, such as salaries
and incidental expenses"
The Tenth State Legislature
appropriated for the annual use
of the Arizona State Fair the
sum of $5O,450.OO. To this
was added the operating in
come received from admissions
concessions etc, which amount
ed to $21, ,53O.95. When the
total expense from July l tc
Nov. 80, amounting to $59.896.-
81 is deducted, the credit bal.
ance remains $12084.00. The
major portion of accounts re-
ceivable have been paid into the
State Fair funds since the re
port was made Nov. 80,

FOR MANY
FAKE SCHEMES

Never within the recollection Of
the present generation have as
many fake schemes come to
light as within the past years.
Almost every day papers in
some part of the country are
called upon to expose a new
scheme. But, as q rule, the ex-
pose comes after the faker has
gathered in the money and hied
himself to other territory, where
his game is still unknown. He
manages to keep one jump a.
head of the denouncers.
This section has come in for
its share of schemes and takers.
and its citizens have contribut-
ed their share of coins to the
schemers. 1t has never been
plain why local citizens will
bite at something a home-tow n
citizen couldn't sell them in a
hundred years.
Along comes a perfect stranger
selling advertising space on a
time-card, calendar, cook book,
or some other fake scheme. He
sells his space readily in a form
of advertising that usually isn't
worth the paper it is printed
on, pockets the money, and is
on his way. And then, when
the advertiser fails to get re-
suits, as he does SO times out
of 100, he goes around declaring
advertising doesn't pay" The
fact of the matter is, such
schemes are not legitimate ad-
vertising, and that is the only
kind that ever did or ever
will pay.
There is something funny a.
bout humane nature when il
comes to these fake schemes
Nobody can understand why
merchants and professional mer
will fall for them" when they
wouldn't buy a nickels worth
of space if a hometown maj
was doing the soliciting. Bur
a perfect stranger comes along
and they bite---hook, line anC
sinker. It's a problem no on
has so far been able to fgur,
out ---Slaton, Texas, Slatonite.

GLASSFORD BACKED
FOR RADIO "CzAR'
tenth Annual Convention Of As
ISOLATION Opens at St.
Louis.
BY ROBERT MACK.

ST. LOUIS, Mo-, November Is &C.
P. A.)-Tslk Of "czar" for broadcast
ing, similar to viii Hays of the movies
and Judge X. Nj Lands Of base ball,
pervaded the opening session here yes
terday of the 10th annual convention
of the National Association of Broad
casters.
with some 400 of the Nations i'm
presarios Of the ether waves in attend
ance. there was much discussion of a
"paid president" for the association to
supplant the existing executive, elected
from the membership. BroadeaSters
feel that they have been jostled about
so much during the past year by antag
onists in their industrial affairs that
they should reinforce their trade asso-
citation to make it strong enough to
fight all of the industry's battles. A
''cZar" is the answer of many.
Feel Idea Premature"
More conservative broadcasters, how
ever, feel that the idea is premature,
unnecessary and economically out of the
question" They contend that the pres
ent managing director should be given
broader authority to deal with ques-
tions Of program improvement, station
operations and the like, rather than
hire some outstanding mama to front
for US" B7oadcasting. they said, is q
technical business, as we'll as an enter
tainment art, and requires practical
men to run it.
The question is likely to come to q
vote before the convention ends, Thurs
day. While it is understood no definite
proposals have yet been made, the
names of DR.. Julius Klein, Assistant
Secretary Of Commerce; James w. Bald
win, secretary of the Federal Radio
Commission, and Brig. Gen. Pelham D.
GlaSsford, fiery ex-chief OF the Wash
angton Police Department. were men,
toned as possible "czar" selections.
Also mentioned was Oswald F. NSchuette,
famed trust buster" who carried on a
three-year fight against the Radio Cor
porattOn of America and won it and
who now is special director of copyright
activities for the broadcasters' aSsocia-
tion.
Term Royalties Excessive.
The broadcasters have plunged into
consideration of a maze of problems,
most important of which, next to reor-
ganization, surrounds that familiar
phrase, ''by special permission of the
copyright owners" Contending that
the American Society of Composers,
Authors and Publishers, "the copyright
owners" are levying ''extortionate" roy
alties for the use of music over the
radio, the broadcasters seem determined
to set up their own music supply. They
designated a special committee to bring
in a report on this question. 1t is this
situation largely that has motivated the
movement for "czar"
To improve radio programs in the
interest Of 10000, 900 American listeners,
the broadcasters designated special COM
mittees to bring in reports on specific
phases of program activity. While they
hold that American broadcaSting is the
best in the world, the association, nev-
ertheless, has insisted that improvement
always can be made to meet listener
demands.

TEAR GAS ROUTS
STRIKING MINERS
Hundreds of Pickets in New
Clash With Guards at
Springfield CoIIiery.
Rv the AsencIated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
SPRINGFIELD, Ill, November 18.-
Several hundred striking coal miners,
picketing the Cora mine in an attempt
to dissuade other diggers from working,
we're routed early this morning after
a clash with deputy sheriffs and State
highway police.
The strikers, members OF the Pro-
gressive Miners of America, were driven
away with clubs and tear gas. Several
pickets were reported to have been
badly beaten. Among them was Dan
McGill, one of the Progressive Miners
most active organizers.
The pickets were dispersed before the
mine opened. Shortly after the road
way leading TO the mine had been
cleared 35 members of the United Mine
Workers Of America started work at the
colliery.
The Cora mine was the scene of a
clash yesterday. Two United Mine
Workers were injured by pickets. The
pickets were successful then in keeping
members Of the rival miners union
from entering the pit. officials of the
Peabody Coal Co., owners Of the mine,
then announced another effort to re-
sumo operations would be made this
morning and called in a large force Of
special deputies to guard the workers.
Dan McGill, injured in todays fare
up, was arrested on a warrant yesterday
charging him with responsibility for the
injuries suffered by one of the two
beaten workers He was released last
night on a $2,500 bond.
The two unions have been at logger
heads for several months and although
both have signed almost identical basic
wage scale contracts at SIS a day, the
Progressive Union has sought to prevent
the United Miner group from working
in this State.
