The government promise* to keep the wines in operation hut We f *3 to see how thia can be done only by keeping the men a t work. College presidents, bankers, farmers, painters or even newspaper people would wake poor miners from what we know of the work. The strike in a way would be a good thing. I t would mean no coal for the present and manufactur­ er* would have to close their plants which mean* no work fo r the "em­ ploye*. The higher wage* will cause the price to soar. Thus we have- one ,-*et of laboring men taking action that will throw out thousands of other men and make hundreds -of thousands pay a higher price for coal if the wage increase is granted and we wonder over the high .cost of living. The la­ borer has done more to increase the coefc of his" pwn living than anything else. 1 MUST UNLOAD COAL, Coal dealer* and the paper mill feel1 .the-effect of-the drastic order of the railroad administration to unload all coal car* within 24 hours after the cars are set.

Hon, 0 , E , Bradfute, representing the farming interests in the Indus­ tria l Conference, which, ha* closed hj Washington, D,. C., . arrived home Saturday. Mr, Bradfute stated to the Herald th a t no doubt some good will come of this meeting, capital and labor hav­ ing1a better understanding of each other. Outside matters such as the steel strike were pressed by the labor ele­ ment, high officials in the,union* see­ ing th a t the radical forces might gain control wanted this matter decided. Judge Gary of the, U. S. Steel Co., stood against the closed shop -and to recognize only individuals and- no col­ lective bargaining. This division was; responsible for a loss of ten days as neither side would give in. * There wCre representatives of large industrial concerns that did not fear' labor and have always recognized the employees through the union with good result. John D, Rockefeller, Jr. was free to express himself on the situation and his views were regarded fa ir to the labor interests. The Public Groupe recommended that the president appoint a commit­ tee of 16 .to*work out in detail some method of setteling strikes and. also to,deal with the high cost o f living. Mr, Bradfute in answer to what he knew of the President’s physical condition stated that evidently his mind must, be strong from the im­ portant messages given t o t h e con- ierence. . There were many reports a t times about his mental condition but none could be verified. '' Mr, Bradfute is optomistic over the meeting and feels tha t while lit­ tle was gained a t this time yet the ground work,bas been .laid, fo r future accomplishments. PUBLIC SALE DATES.

SAY. luncie News is' INVESTIGATIONS We have said something about “Investigations” before this. And so We say again, they are a delusion ahd a snare. More than tha t they are an expensive fabrication on the ffcce of them. They seem to come as a sort of recreation, a recreation wherein alj concerned are put on a heavypay roll, and getthe money promptly, but the public are not given the returns they are expected to return. Investigate —and if thes ubject, such as the pro­ fiteer and his protege, the high cost of living i* about jto be found guilty, Why, make a political switch and change the subject, or postpone i t for a month, or do nothing, all of which; Was intended from the first, 1 The people of Jamestown are im­ posed upon, the people of the county are imposed upon, as well as the peo pie of thestate. » ,It is a- dreadful contagion that has dropped amongus, hndlaidhold on us, or bethrottled us, and we can’t do a thing but growl; and only those who are exports in the command of peculairly condemnatory language can seem to do the situation justice; But who wants to espousd the roll of profanity in Order to throw moistened paper wallets a t a stone wall ? Nor who Wants to keep silent while 'th e faTce |s being’enapted before us, time and time again, an dthen after a in­ terval jto give us a rest—repeated,that our disgust and misery may lack noth­ ing of continued poignancy. What shall be the next started ? And who is anxious to see it? And how. many of all the readers and wri­ ters and thinkers will enjoy it to the fuR ? . “Investigations” are altogether a. performance; they must Have their’ run; but let us not spoil it all by hints or staleness deeply coated with the insincerity of i t all.—Greene.
