He told of the hnxiirdoue life of the coal miner, who, deaidte the fact that the dntly death rate In the mlnt-a from accident waa 2.6, revel v-J lesa wage than any other clftM of miner In the country. The man who eacapd death or Injury in tho mine, h said, waa aui-e to bu attacked with miners' aathma, and ao great la the risk of the men hat they can not be Insured. The advance of 20 percent aaked, Mr. Mitchell contin ued, would not provlJ; MOW iniurance for each man. In miniwt of the demand fur ahoi ter hours, Mr. Mitchell eald the eight-hour acnle applied eleewbers, and that gov ernment reports showed that the men produced more coal In the shorter day than under the 10-heur system. The soft coal miner receive In many In stances from 20 to 40 percent higher wages for eight hours' work than the anthracite miners receive for 10 hours' work. As to the demand for equitable meas urement of coal, the president said the recognised ton was 2210 pounds, but that, under the nieiimivlnn nyit.in, the miner's ton was 2740 lo 3190 rounds. The operntors have a plan of docking that deprives the miner of almost half his work. Mr. Mitchell's statement with regard to the demand for recognition of the union wns a masterly plea for Justice, If the operators would agree to this demand, he said, the union wtml 1 be held responsible for the work of the men. In conclusion, he- paid: "We demond recognition because we know that pernuinent pea- and friend ly relations can best be maintained through a trade agreement with the or ganisation which our peopla hnve elected to Join, Fully !K) percent of the employee of the Tnthvaelte coal mines are members of It from choice; they desire to retain their membership In it.
