which we consider equivalent to being
discharged, and officials responsible tor
said discharge refusing to give reasons
orcauso for tholr action, and believing
as we no that any employe whose work
Is taken from him Is justly entitled to
know In what manner he has committed
himself, so that, In the future, should
he obtain work here or at any other
place, he could guard himself from com
mitting the same error; and wishing
to be understood as a body, In mass
moetlng assembled, as not Indorsing or
defending wrong doing by any person,
therefore oe It
lttmiWrd, That as a matter of self-
defense a committee be apimlnted from
this meeting to Interview our superin
tendent, Mr. Reed, and request a state
ment from him, giving his reasons why
the services of those employes have
been dlsH-nsed with. If, in the Judg
ment of the committee, they think the
reasons given are not sufficient for dis
missal, that they request the reinstate
ment of our fellow workmen.
Whereas, The weighing of the coal
at the Big Soldier Run mine at No. 1
rope not being satisfactory, the present
welghman not being competent, through
Insufficient practice, to weigh the coal
correctly, as the cars are at present run
over the scales; and being satisfied that

weight, therefore bo It
Hrmlved, That wo request of Snpt.
Reed that the oars be slowed tip suf
ficiently so as to give the welghmen
time to correctly weigh tho coal, and do
also request that the welghman and
checkweighman ahull control the move
ment of cars over th scales, so as to be
able to perform their duties Justly be
tween tho company and the men, and,
that outside Interference as to ears'
not moving quick enough over the scales

Big Soldier Won.
Saturday the weather cocks conspired
to cheut the Big Soldier and Coal Glen
boys out of their foot ball gamo, but the
kickers were here and were not to be
soaked out. The rain, however, did
deter a lot of people from witnessing
the game. The crowd was not one-half
as largo as it would have been had It
been fair weather.
The score at the close of the game,
which was the association game, stood
1-0 in favor of Big Soldier. Had the
grounds not been so wet several more
points would have been score, but it was
tho opinion of fair judges thut Big Sol
dier would have won just the sumo.
