DES MOINES, March . (Speolal.) The
district ' jonvtnt Ion of the , Vnlted Mine
Workers 4or Iowa' and Missouri this morn
ing decided - upon removal of the district
headquarters from Albla to Oskaloosa. This
will cause the removal of both President
Perry arid Secretary White from All-in,
where they have lived In the past. 'The'
convention also decided upon holding the
convention next year and the joint con
ference with the 'operators .In Dea Motne.
Ottumwa and Oskaloosa also wanted tho
convention, but Dea Moines won by a close
vote. The convention put, In .the entire
day today considering changes In the con
stitution, principally affecting Balaries of
officials and special funds. I ,
The resolution to affiliate with the State
Federation of Labor was adopted without a
dlosenting vote and the three delegates se
lected to tho state convention which meets
in Davenport next June are: Lawrence
Love, Robert Cowan and Frank Cameron.
The alternates selected were: Frank 1
Rice, James White and William Baker.
Want Miners All In.
The resolutions committee made Its Anal
report Introducing two resolutions. Tha
first waa that, the association make an effort
to bring, the mines of Webster ciunty, now
grown to extensive proportions, under the
state laws- for the protection of the lives
of the miners. The convention decided
unanimously to adopt It. The other resolu
tion, which waa referred to the convention
without recommendation, was that no
United Mine Worker should furnish coal
to a brickyard or other factory that ro-
fuses to recognize union labor. In the dis-
cussion it was orougnt out mat tne mat-
ter -could not be definitely fixed without
the' co-onernttnn of the nneratora and it
r was therefore referred to the scale com
i .-' f ml'.tee with the hope that they may so
- 'cure such an agreement from the operators.
1 ,: The discussion that was called forth showed
4.400 clearly that the sentiment of the conven
tion was for the resolution.
The resolution to establish co-operative
stores was also adopted with the require
ment that no miner own more than ten
sharea at $10 a share.
.. Polk County Primary Electloa.
The republican primary election for Polk
county was held today. There waa to be a
full' ticket' selected. The name of A. B.
Cummins. Was placed on the. ticket at his

today Is -an indorsement of him and his
administration and an Instruction , to the
delegation to vote for him at tho state
convention. There wea no contest for legis
lative' positions, the senator and two mem
bers being renominated without opposition.
There were contests on the other offices,,
but chiefly on sheriff and judge. The elec
tion Was quiet and had none of the fea
tures of, violence which Characterized tha
election-of-a year ago, when the 'congres
sional nomination waa at stake. The con
vention will be held one week later. There
was, much . rivalry over the contest for
plAces on . the county committee,' with a
view to affecting the results' of next year,
when the -congressional fight will be gone
over again. It la believed that generally
the friends of Judge Prouty have gained
over the Hiill forces and will control the
county committee. I ''

RUINOUS RATE WAR . IS ALTERNATIVE
Traat Takes Plrat Action by Closing
and Also Talks of aelllaat rheaw
When Machines Are I -,
atnlleri.
PITTSBURG. March 6 Concf rnlng the
failure of the window glass combine and
Jobbers tc reach an agreement at the recent
meeting at Columbus, the National tMass
Budget tomorrow will say:
"All agreements between manufacturers
and Jobbers are now off and an open mar
ket, with much lower prices, will be the
next thing la order In the window glass
Industry. Tbt this will result In cllmlnat
Ing all profits from the business Is a dead
certainty and-those who continue to oper
ate their plants are certain to do so out
of the profits accruing up to the present
time.
"Regardless of what others may do. It is
the Intention of the Amerlean Window
Glass company to put the fires out of til
except their machine-equipped plant at an
early date, probably on March J4, and here
after paddle their own canoe.
'The machines will be Introduced at their
various factories as rapidly as pcss'bla
and it la ex p. i ted that when the time for
starting factories In the fall arrives this
company will have several machine
equipped plants In blast, making glass
from 40 to E0 per cent cheaper than it Is
possible to make It by the old method."
Trust Shots Down.
Lat tcnlght the American Window Glass
company Issued a formal notice that on
March 14 all its factories will close for the
season,' Irrespective of what other com
panies may do.. The moment that tho fac
tories are closed a large force of men will
be put to work to equip them with the new
glafs blowing machines.
It Is said all tho factories of the com
pany will be equipped with the new ma
chines, which will do the work of the
skilled laborer and remove from the glass
factories the highest priced skilled labor
known In the country. It will give tho
company glass production at less than one
third of the price under hand labor.
The action of the American Window Glass
company In closing Its factories and Install
ing Its machines Is said to be Its answer
to the Independents, who have refused to
come to any agreement concerning uniform
closing of plants this spring.
To make more emphatic the statements
of the big corporation It was stated that a
charter had been applied for under the laws
of New "ioirk for the Incorporation of tho
American Window -Glass Machine company,
which la to have a capital of $20,000,000, all
of which is to be directed by officers of the
glass company and which will own all the
patenta that now exist and manufacture all
the machines for making window glass.
All former lists have been withdrawn by
the 'American company and It is believed a
cut In rates will be made. .
. Sltaatloa la Serlons. .
PHILADELPHIA, March 6. The Public
Ledger today says: Never In the history
of the window glass industry In this coun
try, it la said, have manufacturers and Job
bers been confronted with such a serious
situation aa at present.
If the plan of a number of leading pro
ducers to close down their factories tem
porarily f are, successful. It Is said, higher
price are assured, while If It tails it is
predicted here that the most ruinous price
war which haa ever been Inaugurated will
be a certainty.
"There ia only one safe way out of thf
difficulty," said a leading local Jobber, "and
thit Is by closing the factories. If a sus
pension' of operatlona takes place a better
demand) for glass will naturally follow and
all are assured profitable, prices on their
present - holdings - and the output of the
factories between now and a time when a
shutdown Is decided upon by a majority of
producers.
"If, however, a sufficient number of man
ufacturer persist In working their fac
tories, prices are sure to be cut so deep
that every box of glass made during the
coming season will have to be sold at a
loas. In the event of the factoriea falling
to go out of blast; a cut of 40 per cent, would
not surprise us and those familiar with
the business, the cost of material and high
wagea know what It means."
It has been estimated by those In a posi
tion to know that there are now In the
hands of manufacturer about S,000,00
boxea of glass, one-half of which Is In the
warehouse of the American Window Qlu
company.

quently swell, piles do their annoying
work, there Is vertigo, palpitation of the
heart and debility.
When any of these warning symptoms
are experienced, the use of Paine's Celery
Compound will do wonders for anxious and
suffering women. Paine's Celery Compound
used regularly for a few weeks will build
up nerve force and physical strength, tone
digestion, keep the kidneys and liver in
working condition, will banish gloomy fears
and give sweet sleep.. It tins saved thousands
of women from terrible sufferings and
death. Miss Annie Pasold of De Witt,
Iowa, tells how Paine's Cilery Compound
made her mother well and strong. She
ays:
"My mother was taken very sick by ap
proaching change of life and waa confined
to her bed for seven weeks. Wo employed
the best doctor, but his efforts were of
little avail. She could not keep' anything
on her stomach, could not sleep and she
wasted to a shadow. We procured a bottle
of Paine's Celery Compound for her. Its
use gave grand and wondrous results. She
soon slept well at night, got stronger and
her appetite returned.- She Is now well and
strong and does her work with pleasure.
She would not be without Paine's Celery
Compound for any consideration."
