Head of Miners' Union- Forced by III
Health to Step Down.
John Mitchell, president of the
United Mine Workers of America, has
announced that he will retire when
his term expires on April 1. : In this
week's Issue of the United Mine Work
ers' Journal, the official organ of the
union, he says . he will not stand for
re-election.
Wlien the news of Mitchell's deel
sion reached Wilkesbarre and other
points in Jhe anthracite regions yes
terday it caused much regret among
the miners. In the anthracite, even
more than in the ' bitunstnous coal
fields, Mitchell was idolized by the
miners for .his efficient leadership in
the great strikes of 1900 and 1902.
No other man who has ever headed
the miners' organization was as popu
lar among the rank and ftje as Is
Mitchell.
President Mitchell urges the condi
tion of his health as his reason for
quitting. A few months ago he un-
derwant an operation for a strangu
lated hernia, and It Is said that a
second operation will be necessary.
Mr. Mitchell writes as follows:
To the Officers and Members of the
U. M. W. of A. Greeting:
Inasmuch as notices calling for
nominations are being sent out' from
the office of tlie secretary, and in or
der that all local unions and mem
bers thereof may be in position to I
express their choice for the office of
president, I herewith announce that
I shall not be a candidate for the
presidency of your organization.
I am prompted to arrive at this de
cision because I believe that I no
longer am well enough to give your
interests the consideration their im
portance demands.
I shall explain in greater detail In
my annual report to our coming con
vention the causes which Impel me
to give up the high office to which
you have elected me for so many
years. . .
I thank you for the confidence you
have reposed In me, and I beg you
to believe that the advancement of my
craft has been my highest ambition.
It Is said that Mitchell's choice for
his successor is W. B. Wilson, secre
tary-treasurer of the organization.
Wilson was elected to congress last
: ;
November and will take his seat at
the coming session. , Thomas L.
Lewis, vice-president of the organiza
tion, has been . a candidate several
times for the presidency,' but his pol
icy differs from Mitchell's.
The anthracite men probably will
nominate Thomas D. Nicholls of
Scranton, who also wa3 elected to
congress last fall. -
A difference of opinion among the
union's leaders is said to have some
thing to do with Mitchell's retirement.
Mitchell favors restoring the inter
state agreement in the central com
petitive field which was abrogated at
Indianapolis in March, 1095. . Lewis
favors separate agreements for each
state.
Mitchell was first elected president
in' 1898 and has been re-elected each
year since that time. It is said lie
was anxious to retire a year ago, but
did not want to see Lewis succeed
him, and as Lewis appeared the
strongest candidate then, Mitchell de
cided to stay In.
, President Mitchell ; submitted - to an
operation for appendicitis last week,
and he has not rallied from it as his
friends hoped. He is still very weak
and his condition Is giving his friends
great anxiety.
BEST IN TOWN.
Everything considered, The Wage
worker Is the best advertising medium
in town. Last week The Wageworker
man advertised in a two-llne local
that he had a base burner to rent
for the winter. The paper was deliv
ered in Lincoln on the first delivery
Saturday morning. Before noon Sat
urday there had been six calls about
the stove. At"7 p. m. there had been
seventeen by actual count. On Sun
day there were nine more, making
twenty-six in all. Monday thre were
th-ee more, on Tuesday three more,
and on Wednesday one more. Up to
Thursdav morning: there had been
thiirtv-two answers to the two-line
local.
JUST BECAUSE.
Oklahoma comes nearer being the
"land of the free and the home of the
brave" than any other state In the
union. This Is because organised la
bor took an active part In framing an-3
adopting its constitution. Buffalo
