"Children's headaches'*
When your child complains of
headaches you seldom have to
look further than the eyes in
seeking the cause.
Headaches are a common oc?
currence among children with
defective or ever-strained eye?
sight.
Bring your children to one of
, the Ai. H. Harris offices and let
?one of our Oculists (Medical
Doctors) examine their eyes-?
without obligation.
If glasses will not prove bene
. ficial, or if the trouble is found
I to be organic, you will be told
H so frankly and advised to con
B suit your family physician.
It glasses are prescribed, their
cost will be moderate, depend
k ing on the lenses required and
L mountings selected.

the government has its way at the hear?
ing to be held in Indianapolis on No?
vember 8, will b? succeeded by a tem?
porary injunction enjoining the miners
no set forth in the restraining order
and "further from permitting said
strike order to remain in effect and
i commanding-them to de: ist from aid
? ing Paid strike by permitting said : trike
; order to remain in effect, and com?
manding them to issue a withdrawal
ond cancellation of said strike order."
Subpoenas Returnable November 20
Upon the final hearing of tho suit,
subpoenas, for which were issued to all
the defendants returnable November 20,
tho court is petitioned to "issue its
permanent injunction against the de?
fendants and all persons unlawfully
conspiring, combining, agreeing and
arranging with them as hereinbefore
alleged in all respects ns specified."
This is said to bo the first time in
' the history of American courts in which
i a court has been called upon to order
officers of organized labor to rescind a
st ?;ke order. The government seeks
not only to prevent and nullify tho
effects of the strike but purposes to
enforce the calling off of the strike.
The officials of the United Mine
i Workers, while expecting that some
sort of an injunction against them
would be issued, were amazed by the
sweeping nature of tho government's
course. One of them said if the order
applied to individual members of the
unions ?t was fortunate for the gov?
ernment that it hud retained the mili
: tary cantonments, implying that they
would bu needed to house the vast
numbers of men who would be punish?
able for conteront of court
IJlow at Unions Charged
Some of the men served with the re?
straining order declared it showed that
the government of. tho United States
had undertaken to destroj the United
Mine Workers of America, had attacked
the right of labor to strike and had
precipitated the final struggle between
all organized labor and those who
would destroy it.
*he executive board of the miners
was in session when United States
deputy marshals walked into the as
: mbly room at national headquarters
at 11:30 o'clock this morning to serve
the order and tho subpoenas. Deputy
Marshal Ream nervously told President,
Lewis he had some papers to servo and
was nonchalently told to go ahead.
With trembling hands he peeled off
document after document, from the
bundle ho carried, and as each man's
name was called he came forward and
took the fateful mandate. In all eigh?
teen of the twenty-five members of the
i executive board were served.
Leaders Careful of Conduct
Agents of the Department of Justice
were dispatched to various sections of
the country to serve officers not pres?
ent in Indianapolis. All the men
. served with the restraining older to?
day evinced intentions of scrupulously
; obeying it, Ellis Searl.es, editor of
"The Mine Workers' Jotirnal," was so
fearful he might violate th< injunc?
tion that he immediately refused to
give out any more copies of the cur?
rent issue for feai that editorials and
ne?vs articles therein might render
him subject to a charge ol violation
of the court's order.
Later in the das, after Die hoard
had adjourned, President Lewis and
Secretary Green wen1 into consulta
tion with Henry v'. Warrum, a local
attorney, regarding the course to bo

of the International Union of Cri ted
M ine Woi kers of Amei ica and
from carrying out a conspiracy and
agreement to restrict the supply and
distribution of coal, which, the
. unction explains, is a "neci
within the meaning of the act of Con?
gre 3 i f August H . 1917, ei C'\ d "A i
act to prov ?de .. ci for t lie na
si ."irit,. and di fen; e by encouri
pi'i iiition op conservi ? the

pri ducts and fuel."
The injunction says that the dc
fendants actually did conspire in vio?
lation of the Federa! law and the pub
: ;?? ' olicy of the United ti to limit
the facilities for the transport?t i - nd
supp lying of coal.
Nature of Conspiracy Stated
The conspiracy was to be carried
out, according to the bill, by means of
"declaring, enforcing and maintaining
the said general striko or cessation of
labor on the part of all bitun ini
mine workers who are nn mbi rs of the
United Mine Workers of America."
Further means of carrying out "he
conspiracy, will consist in "the issu
? nee of further and supplementary or
di ? - and insti uct ions cover ng and ar
, i nging for al 1 : ccessary details i
ccessful enfoi cement of the strili e,
and in the continuous and repeated is?
suance and promulgation by tin dc
fendants of messages of encouragement
and exhortation to continue to abstain
from work and not to return to the
mines; and in the issuance and d tti
bution to the striking miners and mine
workers of so-called strike benefits oi
sums of money, previously accumulated
and subsequently acquired, for thi
purpose of assisting the strik ng
i i in rs and mine workers to subsist
without their wages temporarily, and
long enough to produce a shortage of
bituminous coal so acute as to cause
widespread national distress and
thereby to enforce compliance with
the defendants' terms."
|| AU Specifically Prohibited
y As these are stated to be the pur
' poses of the conspiracy, they arc the
H actions specifically prohibited by the
L injunction.
? Without the restraint offered by the
h injunction, the bi" reads: "The de
^ ; fendants will issue further orders, pr?
* ceed to distribute strike benefits, ren
J dor effective the strike, and thus stop
I the productive! and distribution of
I bituminous coal throughout tie coun?
try so as to paralyze tho industries of
tho country ami to throw large num?

and to require the plaintiff to meet the
resultant d?ficiences in railroad oper?
ating revenues by disbursements out

District President Galls
Injunction an Effort
to "Enslave" Workers
SPRINGFIELD, III.. Oct. 31.- Ap
proximately 80,000 soft coal miners in
Illinois had obeyed tho strike order
of their officials by 5 o'clock this aft?
ernoon, according to announcement at
state miners' headquarters.
Assuming a defiant attitude toward
the government's move to stop tho
strike, Frank Karrington, chairman of
the miners' scale committee, and presi?
dent of the Illinois district, declared
to day the "strike had developed into
oi ''tiling more than a miners' strike,";
and that it was "an attempt to en- !
slave the working men and women of i
tho country."
"I don't believe there is any power ?
on earth that can stop the miners from ;
going on strike to-night," Karrington ;
-aid. "The action of the government
will only inflame them. The question
involved now is whether working men
and women have the right to strike '
when they think they have cause to do !
so." " !
Karrington is Defiant
"We are going through with the
m ..." Karrington declared. 'Labor
i- bound to fight this injunction. If
it stands if is within the power of
anj court to enslave the working man
and woman any time the court de?
cides to do so."
"If this injunction stands, there will
be h lot of us deceived as to the lib?
erties we thought American citizens
1 ji y. The restraining order is a blow
at the very heart of free institutions
of our country."
Branding the act of the government in
obtaining the injunction as the "most
far-reaching and high-handed restrain?
ing order ever issued by a court in
tin- country," Karrington declares its
infl lence to breed radicalism was un
i.in ted.
''Nothing thai I know of could have
;> ti dencj to incite Bolshevism in this
country as thi restraining order will
do," said Karrington. "All the agents

declared "the Ander on injunction onl>
makes us that much more determined
lo light to the bitter end," and offered
the Illinois legal department's aid in
combating the government's restrain
. ink' order aimed against the strike.
"Let the consequences bo what they
may," said the telegram, "we feel we
must now, once for all, determine
whether or not the working man and
woman can be enslaved b> a writ of

The only men left in the mines, it

against constituted authority as the
Boston police strike and the coal strike
have resulted.
"The suffering that will bo caused
by the miners' strike will fall not upon
the rich, who have prepared themselves
against its consequences, but. upon
millions of poor," said .Senator Poin
dexter. "This and other strikes which
are plunging the nation into industrial
chaos are not really controversies
about wages and hours of labor, but
are fomented by annchistic agitators
as a part, of the program to 'abolish
the vvage system' and to establish the
'dictatorship of the proletariat.'
"The great mass of American labor
is sensible and patriotic. A species of
government within government, the
tyranny of radical walking delegates
in the labor organizations, has coerced
and intimidated many laborers to quit
work when they really wanted to work.'
Innumerable instances of governmental
aid and sympathy has given tremen
hous encouragement to this lawless
movement until :t has become the chief
political issue of our time."
Mr. Poindexter cited the treatment!
of Robert Minor, accused of attempt?
ing to incite sedition in the American!
army and the Thomas Mooney case as
instances of governmental support to
radical tendencies.

of Repression Continues]
PITTSBURGH, Oct. 31.?Delegates
arrived here to-night for a special con?
vention of the Pennsylvania Federa- ?
tion of Labor to take place to-morrow;
and Sunday. Included in the 500 dele- >
gates expected at the meeting were, it
was announced, about 200 miners rep-:
resenting the five districts of tho
United Mine Workers within the state.
?lames E. Maurer, president of the :
organization, to-night gave out a state?
ment through the steel strike commit-;
tee. in wh ich he said :
"A report will bo made at the con?
vention uy the committee of eighteen
who visited Washington in behalf of
the organized labor of Allegheny
County and conferred with the Penn?
sylvania delegation in Congress and
with A. Mitchell Palmer. Further re?
pression by legal authorities will bo !
brought before the convention, includ-j
ing the shutting off of still further
addresses, to strikers by foreign Ian- ?
guage speakers in places which hither- ;
to have permitted such speakers. Warn
ing also has been given in steel strike
towns that if the coal strike comes
no roectinga whatever of steel otrikers
arc to be permitted.
"i)ne ot the proposed courses of ac?
tion favored by some delegates, who
are already in Pittsburgh, is issuance
of an ultimatum to Governor Sproul,
and to state and local authorities,
that further appeals to governmental
and judicial authorities for relief will
bo considered useless unless prompt
and decisive action restoring constitu?
tional rights and civil liberties forth?
with is taken. Proposals are being
framed ot methods of asserting the
rights of labor if such an ultimatum
is not promptly effective."
Labor leaders would not be quoted
as to the "methods" to he used i?
the "ultimatum" was delivered and un- ;
heetied, but it was the opinion that the
weapon most favored was a general
mi ike. This, it was suggested, tho
convention could not order, although
?1 could recommend such a course to
the unions represented.

then came upon six more, those of
foreign miners, in a group. All had
been suffocated by smoke or c.-is ami
had not been touched by the tire.
