Alabama Monitor: It occurs to ma
that there is a good deal of pickering
and contention among the leaders of
the reform movement that is not only
unnecessary but hurtful. A little
more tolerance toward each other, a
little more kindly consideration each
for the other, aud a general purpose to
fight the enemy and not friends, would
be wiser and more desirable course.
No man Knows 1t all. No one can DOS
sibly be able to divine with certainty
what is best for the future. Let all be
more considerste and prudent, and
work for harmony. Our forces are not
united and can never be harmonized
by such action. One State is not the
Union, nor Is the prattle of one town
the music of the spheres. This is a
greet big country, with varied interests
and different conditions and situations
to be dealt with in each State. Bear
and forbear should be the motto Of all,
until the line Of battle shall be drawn.
Railway Advertiser: There is good
deal Of unfair talk, especially In West
ern States, to the effect that there is
no reason why railway properties
should pay dividends and interest on
WsteTed stock or bonds representing
1t. The answer to this argument is
that most railway properties, certainly
all Western roads, would feel happy If
they were only paying dividends and
interest on the actual cash invested In
the property-the cost of building the
roads plus the actual money expended
on betterments. The fact is, no class
OF investors have done 80 much to de-
velop our Western country as those
who furnished the money to construct
the railways, and no class Of investors
has suffered so greatly by reason of
failure to pay either dividends or inter-
est. Take, for example, the State of
Kansas, and, with one exception, no
railway corporation has paid a dividend
of any kind for many years. The one
exception is the Rock Island, which
paid per cent, no portion of which
was earned from It's lines In Kansas.
These are facts that must be squsrely
faced by the farmers of the Western
States If they ever hope to restore any
thing akin to prosperity sgsin. How
Is 1t possible for capital ever to flow
westward again if, after forcing rail-
ways, by inimicsl legislation, to con-
ditiOn of insolvency, they still refuse
to give them needed reliefP ALI legis-
lstion for the last twenty-five years has
been against the railway interests, and
they have simply reached a condition
to-day where they can stand no more
of 1t. The recent threat that the only
alternative left a certain railway in
Kansas was to tear up its track and

Philadelphia Inquirer: 1t Is said
that before war actually broke out on
the Macedonian frontier Greece was
spending 100000 daily in the support
Of her army, while Turkey was expend-
Ing probably three times that amount.
These Of themselves are enormous
sums, but they appear even greater
when the financial condition of both
countries is remembered. The bonded
debt of Greece is, in round numbers,
$l07,000,0O0, or $40 per capita of her
population, while that of Turkey is
1921 100000, or $37 per capita. Add
to this the fact that the people Of both
countries are poor and already taxed
too heavily, and the question is how
long this state of things can continue.

LOGGING CAMPS GOING IN.
There Will be Several Put in
North Of Ishpeming.

r. W. Classon, the logging con-
tractor. will soon start number of
men at work in the woods near Sal
mon Trout, several miles north of
Ishpeming. He will get out timber
for the Reichel Bros. who own con-
siderable standing pine in that vi
cinity The latter will also open up
some camps out there within the
next few weeks. They propose cut
ting about 1000 900 feet Of timber
near the river the coming winter.
This will give work to QUITE d
number of men.
The Dead River mill company will
also do some work in the woods
north Of Ishpcming the coming win
ter. 1t is expected that an active
start will be made out there soon
as the company has opened up camps
at other points. 1t is probable that
more men will be employed in the
camps in that vicinity during the
fall and winter than in any previous
season for the past four or five years
The hester estate Of Baraga will
likely do some work out in that vi
cinity the coming winter. as il had
not finished cutting the timber it
owns there a few months ago when
it broke up its camps. The estate
had about 100 men at work last
spring. but it is thought that it will
employ larger force than that the
coming winter. as il owns more
timber there than can be got out
with crew Of that size. Mining

THE coal miners have agreed TO
20 back 20 work at 6j-ccnt rate.
and if the operators will agree TO
pay it the great strike will come TO
Il satisfactory ending within a few
days. The vote by which the miners
decided TO accept the rate was not
unanimous, but it was large enough
to show that the conservative
element is in the majority. The
final decision might have been ar
rived at two or three weeks ago but
for the obstinacy Of the leaders Of
the men, whopostponed action until
after the st. Louis conference could
be held. The failure Of that con
ference to evolve anything more
substantial than few inhammatory
resolutions no doubt FASTENED the
compromise. The settlement of the
strike will be hailed everywhere
with JOY. 1t is a substantial victory
for the men, and a. they deserved
to win, the result must be popular.
