THE CONVENTION at Shamo kln todny of the United Mine "Workers of the three anthracite districts will un doubtedly respond to the counsel and guidance of John Mitchell. If he deems a strike wise, there will be a strike; if he has other plans, they will be carried out. John Mitchell's com mand of tho miners' organization is unquestionable; and it is merely just to say that he lias exercised with dis cretion and, upon the whole, with con spicuous ability the power which he holds. Taking into account the diffi culties besetting the leadership of a labor movement on the scale of the United Mine "Workers, it must be re cognized by all wishing to be fair that he has succeeded to a, degree very un usual in such matters; nnd he has had efficient help from the district presi dents, who have shown themselves men of conservative inclination and pru dence. Of the demands which seem likely to come before the Shamokln convention for indorsement, that for a recognition of the union by the operators is prob ably the one having the firmest sup Iiort among the delegates. It is not unreasonable. The union exists. It controls the labor situation in and about the mines. Declining to recog nize it means withholding simply something technical, for every opera tor knows that it has to be recognized in many way in the daily conduct of business. By what logic the full sig nificance of technical recognition is withheld, we do not know. What the operators have in mind ns the benefit to accrue to them from such withhold ing, we cannot guess. 1'ossibly this will appear later on. At present, it is in the dark. Speculation as to what the conven tion will do and as to the local conse quences of its actions is naturally in teresting but necessarily inconclusive. Wo do not look for a strike. The con ditions do not seem propitious for one from tho standpoint of the miners, both as individuals and as an organ ization. Individually, they could not nope to gain financially what they would lose by one. As an organization, they would run the risk of defeat, which would be fatal, while, should they win, they would be only techni cally and not actually stronger than they are now. There Is today no presi dential election to enlist powerful poli tical interests in their behalf; and, while the amalgamation between hard and soft coal unions is today much further advanced than it was when the last strike was declared, to call out the soft coal men would sacrifice income as well as weaken the fighting force by immensely extending the battle-line, und not to call them out would invite dissension among the anthracite work ers. For these reasons, whlc.li are as plain to John Mitchell ns to anybody else, wo do not expect a strike, and we ob serve that in circles usually well-informed our view is shared. Neverthe less, it Is for tho convention, nnd not for the press, to decide. "While a strike would be a serious matter and would impose great hardship upon many persons, both among tho strikers nnd throughout other circles in tho anthracite region, it is noticeable that tho public hereabouts does not view tho possibility ofTono with tho same de gree o apprehension $h in the 'full of 1'jOO. Many'tayrbtoiVheard to say iluriniTthe past-islx tf'eoks that as be tweenh. Blximofttiis strike, to bo fol lowed Jjy poalped freedom from f re quent jllsturbanCtJa ot business, and the indefinite prolongation of the un rest which )ias manifested itself since Scranton became a focus of labor poli tics, they'wpuld prefer tho former, costly lis-it might be. "We think that this oentlmen; Is qullo general. thpy enn suffer this yeah Many pf them, lie says, have gone by the board. There is little speculation nnd little excitement. People tiro waiting. Warehouses are full of sugar which Is being hold pending an adjustment of the tnilff question, It can, he thinks, be hold for some time yet, but In the meantime It ties up a lot of money nnd those who Imve surplus cash In quan tity ore holding 011 to It and' rofuslng to lend It except In small niuiuinls nnd nt Usmlous rates ot Interest. The wealthy Spanish Interests arc compla cent because they llgtire Unit they stand to win whichever way the cat Jumps. If a reduction In sugar duly Is made, their pluntutlniis will Increase lit Value nnd business will revive, In which event they will profit liii-gely. If It Is refused, they look upon nunexa tlon ns certain to follow, In which event they will have free access to the Amer ican market. Mr. Pepper thus sum marizes his view of the sltuutlon: ".Some oxnggetatlon has been In dulged In with regard to the present conditions. Nobody in Cuba. Is starv ing today or need starve; nor need anybody starve next year. Dttt If the sugar Industry does not get some en couragement a largo proportion of the population of the island will have to live from hand to mouth, and the pres ent dull times may be followed by worse times. .Somehow It, has not seemed as though the case ot tho Cu ban people was presented In the testi mony before the ways and means com mittee. They have a case and a very strong case. In a broad way It may be said that the whole population will be benefited by anything that helps tho sugar industry. If tho Inhabitants ot the island do not receive some such benefit, the difficulties of the new Cuban government, which in any cir cumstance are many, will be inci eased. It is a question between a good start and a bad start. After looking into the situation a little I understand bet ter why the American 'officials are anxious for the American military au- tnority to have its responsibility end ed." In the meantime, the news from "Washington is that the administration will soon be in sufficient strength in congress to carry its point a reciprocal trade arrangement involving a mutual reduction in duties of at least 20 per cent, possibly limited to two years. "What will be done at the end of the two-year period is a bridge to be crossed when it is reached. Now that the dowager empress has issued on edict against the habit of insulting foreigners at Pekin, it will soon be demonstrated whether t moo can he convinced that It is fork ing misplaced patriotism. One copy goes twlllj other election papers to the pro'thonotary. Any citi zen objecting to tho work ot the regis trars whether for registering or refus ing to register a man claiming the right to register shall npponl to court, which must dispose of the matter bo fore election. Each party may have three certified watchers In each place of registry. No registered person shall be excluded from voting, except It shall be shown to tho satisfaction of the election officers, by affidavit filed, that ho has changed his residence, und Is no longer a resident of tho district. He fore receiving his ballot, every voter shall satisfy the election officers of his identity, If challenged, by signing tho registry list containing tho signatures of electors In tho place provided for that purpose, If able to do so, nnd by the production of such other evidence ns may ho required by law. In caBe of loss of tax receipt affidavit may bo made showing kind of tax and when, where and to whom paid. Theru nro provisions to Insure faith fulness of reglsturs and penalties ga lore. Thus for refusing without good cause to servo as a registrar when ap pojnled and notified a lino of $100 Is specified. For knowingly registering the name of a man not qualified by InW or refusing to register a qualified voter, $000 and a year In jail. For trying to get leglstered when knowingly not qualified and for falsely personating an other or aiding in deception, $1,000 and three years in Jail. For tampering with thu written record, $300 or up to a year ln jail or both. For the refusal by an election officer of the vole of a duly qualified voter or the acceptance of Un vote of a disqualified voter, $1000 and three years In Jail. Such are the essential features of a carefully drawn act sanctioned by those who regard personal registration as a means to the betterment of political conditions. It is intended to apply to cities only; but no doubt when the cities ate purified a bill will bo forth coming to correct the moral aliments of the rual voters also.

This may perhaps be cor rect, but it is believed that tho wan dering currents of electricity that threaten the destruction of gas and water pipes will cause more stir in the near future than this latest feature of the Marconi system. Personal Registration. "HBUE lies before us the draft of an act for personal regis tration which the Joint Com mittee for the Promotion of Electoral Reforms and the Merit Sys tem in Pennsylvania has prepared for submission to the next legislature. A summary of its provisions will no doubt be of general Interest, especially since the bill has been accepted as part of the demands or those wishing a re organization in state affairs. Section 1 directs the subdivision of city wards into registry districts of not to exceed 2500 voters, present election districts not to be cut In two. Section 1! provides for the appointment by court or three "sober and judicious persons, of good moral character, able to read and write" and not all belonging to the same political party, to act as registars ot electors, their pay and the pay of two clerks to be fixed by court. The third section fixes hours and dates of the meeting or this board before a general election. 011 a anil llpfnrn ,1 r.llv nl.i.... cm 3 different days, with 10',i- hour ses sions each day and section 4 reads as follows: w F QenorulQlvcru, in announcing him self as;, successor to General Lukban, appear ftr realize tho fact that he represents the small end of the cornu copia si far afc tho Philippines disturb ance Ist-conpeirnet.

Whom Jb? Boycoff flMs the Most rrom a Paper Head Recently in Dijton, O. lll.X stilkes, riots, assaults, distinction of piopeity, picketing and intimidation fail of accomplishment of the dciiied purpose, the hot cot t is resorted la. Tim law, and the decisions of the courts of all yr.idc thioughout the country, including the Supieme Court of the United States, declare a bo.tcott to .1 con-piracy of person or organization to iclrain one's business relations with otheis. by thieats, intimidation, compulsion or force. In cteiy Instance an injunction lias been granted when petitioned for and setcie penalty imposed when the order of the court has been disobeyed. Under the constitution and the luw, boycott ing is as much a crime as are any of the hun dreds for which men aie nirestcd, tiled, omict ed and puuMicd, the only difference being, that the law does not ptotide a penalty for its tiolatiou by a boycott. This absence of penalty explains why the tlolators of this law can not be punished until an injunction has been ol tallied and a lcslraining older issued, for the tiolatlon of which the peipetrator i arrested and punished. His! offense then becomes one for which the law preside .1 penaltj, tiz; con tempt of court. A teiy caieful investigation of tin- results of bojeotts, in hundreds ot instances, dcmonstiatus that almost without exception they are ptotiio titc of the inteu-sls of those against whom thi-v nre uccureti. When organized labor contended for iu-t and humane principles and its altalrs were managed by men of character, capacity anil integrity, it had the sympathy and approval of that public sentiment which is eucntlal to success iu all such enterprises or undertakings. Then, bojiotU 1 101 ted to for the puipose of coicctlng some palpable it long, some glaring abuse, were made cltcctlie by public opinion. Hut during recent jcars, the mistakes of judgment inciting to delation of law, not., a-aults, unjust and in toleiable demands: the long calegoiy of irev,. passes upon the- right of tho community In ull departments of business and labor, have alienated public sentiment, until ciiganired Jabur Is con demned by u laige majority of Its o,n inembcis, ami a still larger majority of the public in gen eral. 'Ihe couectness of this ntattmrnt will be lontcdtd by intelligent men, and is eddeneed by the lack of attendance', compulsory p. 13 incuts of dues, the desire to obtain implojment in ficc shops, and alto, hy the general attitude of all classes) of business men. It Is u lamentable fact that in tety ninny in. stances, bojeotts aie declared against establish mints which pay the highest wages and in whidi me- ui-iiare 01 me tvoiKc-r is ma iiigucst con sideration influencing tho management. An un worthy binlnes agent or leader finds or manu factures some tibial excuse for a lumplalnt or misunderstanding, and, suddenly becomes piwc-es-cd of au intense ambition to show Ills personal authority and demonstrate tho power of organiz ed labor to "bring the biggest and best ot 'tin to their knees." Demands are nude which aie . outrageous in diatatti-r tlut no self-ieliaut man can ctcn con-ent to atbltrate them. Then ii-aaon, justice, llio welkin- 01 fellow workmen, give place to a mad passion to "do tho boss," and a strike und boycott is detlainl without a shadow of jiMtitlcallou. In tiew of all these fuels, there is no,v no icsponslvo public sentiment lo the demand fur .1 boscott. When the dcmind is matin on an honor able, intelligent man and good citizen, to adopt thLs unlawful and unjust polity, his sense of tight asserts itself, his Americanism mm;s to hU le-cue and makes him a friend rattier than an enemy of the bojcotlcd.

No doubt tho common complaint Hiiulo by students about the food served In boni-dlng1 schools Is often ill-founded, and is sometimes made by those who do not live well nt home; but It must be remembered that most .students In boat'diticr schools are passing through u, period ot he most critical physical nnd mental development and their ap petites, for this reason, nre capricious. They need a variety of foods from which to choose. Food not relished, does not nourish well. At the BLOOMSBURG STATE NORMAL SCHOOL the best the market affords Is pur chased. Food c-nntulning the nourish ing Ingredient! In the proper propor tions needed by growing bodies und active bruins Is provided. It Is pre pared by professional cooks who know how, fctinlents enter the dining room at their convenience between certain hours, and order from the bill of faro what best suits their appetites. The food Is served hot on warmed dishes, to each student separately. The order may be repeated until the appetite is satlnllot. For bieakfast: te.i, coffee, cocoa or milk may be chosen. Toast with hot milk; some cereal; fruit often; u choice of at least two meals; potatoes; egp,s when they enn be had fresh. From this the character of other meals may bo judged. Quite different this, from the stereotyped boarding school break fast, where all sit down at the tap of the bell, cat what Is placed before them or nothing, within .1 fixed time and often with no prhllego ot replenishing tho platter.
