TIIE MORNING OREGOXIAy, MOXDAT, NOVEMBER 25. 1912. S i 1 - 1 1' i MINERS TO FIGHT FEDERAL POLICY 1000 Delegates Expected at Mining Congress Ses sions in Spokane. ALASKA COAL TO BE TOPIC Worklngmen's Compensation Act to Be Drafted for Legislative Ac tion Making Cost of Insur ance Tax on Commodity. SPOKANE. WaalL. Nov. St. With the prospects of a lively fight being- waged on what Its opponents call "The polit ical heresy of the new nationalism." as practiced by the last two Administra tions at Washington. In regard to the administration of the laws governing the development of the public domain, the fifteenth annual session of the American Mining Congress will begin Its sessions here tomorrow with an ex pected attendance of more than 1000 delegates from all over the country, but chiefly from the Western States. The three main questions to be threshed out in the congress probably will be: First A more liberal administration of the mineral land laws, particularly in the Western States and Alaska. Second The opening of the coal fields in Alaska. Third The framing of a workmen's compensation law supplementary to the Federal law, the chief feature of which will be making the cost of Insurance to employes or workingmen a part of the cost of production, and not a bur den to the workingmen themselves. Compensation Act Considered. - The scope of this law, according to James F. Callbreath, secretary, of Den ver, Colo., is to Include accidents of all kinds, regardless of any contributory negligence on the part of employes; the family or widow of any employe, whether killed or permanently injured, is to be insured by a tax on the com modities produced. The object In fram ing this law Is ultimately to have it passed by the legislatures of the several states. The fight for a more liberal inter pretation or the mineral land laws will be made on the ground. It Is said, that the states should have control of the natural resources within their borders as the only way to stop the heavy Im migration of recent years from the United States to Canada. Alaska to Be Represented, The Alaska delegation, more than 100 strong. Is coming with the expectation of having the support of the coal-mln-Ing interests In the Eastern States. The entire session Wednesday night is to be devoted to a discussion of the Alaskan coal fields problem, a feature of which will be the reading of a paper by Director Holmes, of the Federal Bu. reau of Mines, setting forth the Govern ment's attitude. MAIL SERVICE IN TANGLE John Day Valley Suffers aa Result of Dispute. A PRAIRIE CITT, Or.. Nov. 24. (Spe cial.) The present condition of the mail service at this place and through out the John Day Valley, resulting from the recent refusal of the Sumpter Val ley Railroad to carry the mall from Austin to Prairie City, is growing more serious as Winter approaches. The re turn to stage delivery of the mail from Austin, under the best conditions of roads caused a day's delay in mail de livery at all down-valley points and five hours' delay at Prairie City. Dur ing the Winter months this condition will be greatly aggravated, and there will be times when snows will render the wagon road over the mountains im passable for days at a time. According to Sumpter Valley officials, the road refused to carry the mall from Austin to Prairie City solely on account of the stage line's neglect to pay for the service. The railroad asserts that the stage line owes it 900 for service already rendered in carrying the mall. The stage line alleges it took the con tract at such a low figure that it is carrying the mall at a loss. WORKMEN TACKLE BIG JOB Million-Dollar Sngar Factory to Be Moved From Idaho to Utah. KAMPA.
