Show INTER-MOUNTAI- Miners Home. At its meeting: held in Denver on May 18th, the Western Federation of Miners took an important, and it is to be hoped, a successful step toward the establishment of a home for disabled miners. There is scarcely a more hazardous occupation than that of mining, yet there are but few refuges provided for those who- lose health or limb in following an industry that is of such - vast importance to the worlds advance- ment. The following resolutions were adopted at the meeting: Whereas, The dangerous and hazardous vocation of mining notwithstanding the modem inventions and scientific appliances, is constantly resulting in the disabling and maiming of a large number of our fellow miners, rendering them incapable of earningde-a livelihood, and leaving them wholly pendent upon the charity of the world, we feel that the time has arrived when the combined efforts of the miners of the West can do something for the alleviation of the suffering of our unfortunate brothers. The suitable home to be erected can be paid for by popular subscriptions and by donations from the various local unions. When a sufficient sum has been realized by this means, it is proposed to apply to the Congress of the United States and to our several State Legislatures for the appropriation of a sum of money equal to the amount collected. Therefore, be it Resolved, That it is the sense of this convention of Western Federation of Miners of America to empower its executive board to solicit public subscriptions and to receive private donations to be set apart in a fund to es- MINING REVIEW.
