Sterling, Colo. series will be played in Denv: tess encourugément is received from ‘ans here for a four-game series, plans nay be dropped. ‘Phe ‘uncertainty hinges upon the *xpense of bringing the clubs _ here, which would amount to about $1,500, sacluding incidental costs of the games. Due to the lateness of the season and a small deficit which must oe faced, the local corporation of the league decided not to assume further burdens which might be aggravated by unfavorable weather. The players of the two teams, consequently are as- suming all responsibility. in connec- ion with the series and they have the assuranceof making money on. the games played in Denver. Regular che end of the official season and un- sess the: post-season series proves profitable the men may have to dig iito their own savings to make up the doficit.. In the event one of the two clubs won four out of five in Denver, the risk of bringing the players here to finish the series would be increased, in addition to the further risk of un- favorable weather. If season tickets could be issued and sold for a four-game series at $3.50 each, much anxiety in this respect would be set at rest, and the games assured for Casper. Local fans are eager for a share of the title play and the suggestion has been made that the stores agree to close for two hours next Monday, the day on which the first game would be played here. Gen- eral closing was observed on the open- ing day of the season with good re- sults. The players lack an organization here to boost the season ticket plan if it is adopted.

Aside from the wage question, Mr. Lewis asked the convention to administer a rebuke tc Robert H. Harlin of Sea Wash, and Frank Farrington, president o the Illinois miners, who Lewis charg. ed had ‘circulated false statements about the union. He also asked the convention to Indorse the internation board, which he said Alexander How at, president of the Kansas miners’ organization, had defied in not com. plying with the board's order for strik- era to return to work, Other essential points of Mr. Lewis" report included the following: ‘A recommendation that the conven- tion reaffirm its declaration of twe years ago, favoring nationalization o: coal mines. A’ deciaration that “the fight in Mingo county, W. Va., must be won, and that “there can be no compromine of the principles involved.” A recommendation that legat cotdings be instituted to mai fest of the consiitutionallt Kansas industrial court law. In discussing the wage questions Mr. Lewis said coal operators in Penn sylvania, Washington, Iowa, Kansas Colorado, West Virginia,, Kentucky, ennessee, Alabama, Oklahoma, Tex- Arkansas and Missouri had filed @emangs for reductions, but that thr urion’S policy’ was uncothpromistiglh for ‘carrying out the présent agree ment, which he @aid was predicted’ vt: pro- a ful of the the award of the bituminous coal com. govern. mission, , functioning under nient authority. “Our people were empk two days a week on the continued Mr. Lewis in expt the unlon’s potley, “and the extremely difficult found it to provide’ them. selves with food and’ other necessities. Furthermore, it is a fact that the wages now paid in. the organized sec- ons of the mining industry are but relatively fair. Coal can be produced Junder the present wage scale at a jabor cost/that corresponds favorab!y {with production costs of other essen- tial commoditics."” | Mr.” Lewis declered that the min- ers in the states where wage reduc tions had been asked by operators were supporting the union's policy oppos- ing any modification of the present agreement, and he sdded: “This policy must be continued and | the resourees of the union made avail- jable for its application. The present |wage agreement, to- which the gov- {ernment is a party, must remain in- | tact, and we will expect that the in- | fluence of the federal government will |be exercised to preserve its integrity. | In recommending , that the wage |question be referred to a scale com-| mittee, Mr, Lewis proposed that the| convention reconyené next’ February’ to receive the committee's report and! adopt definite demands.
