Show MINERS ARE GOING BACK TO WORK Park City. Nov 2 More men decided de-cided tonight to return to the Silver King mine to work tomorrow. A party of about twenty-five strikers met tonight and decided they were tired of the strike and wanted to return re-turn to work. They called up the mine' officials aud asked If they could have their jobs tomorrow. They were told they could. The miners then appealed to the, sheriff, P. F. Ryan, who has so far failed to give the mine any protection protec-tion They asked him if he would protect them, if necessary, when they made their way up the hill at 9 o'clock tomorrow morning. They were tojd by General Manager Keams and tho mine officials that if the sheriff did not furnish them proper protection against a possible demonstration against them by the other strikers the private mine guards would attend to their safety. It has been noted here that Sheriff Ryan did not give the mine any protection pro-tection from possible violence at tho time of the walkout and that he haa taken no steps to protect It since that time. Many business men last night expressed the hope that he will be more attentive to his duties In the future. There seems to be a general feeling feel-ing among the miners today in favor of returning to work. Groups of men gathered around tho city streets have suggested that a meeting be called of those who want to go back. While no definite action has been taken on the proposal.' the feeling In favor of It seems to be Increasing. A number num-ber of men have already returned to the mine and there are twenty-five mill men in, the group which plans to return to work tomorrow. The commissioners of Summit county coun-ty arrived In Park City today and went to the Silver King office for a conference with General Manager Thomas Kearns. The entire strike situation was gone over thoroughly by the commissioners and Senator Kearns. |
