Maddenca by Solitude.

The Canadian northwest is q proba-
tionary haven for wealthy young Eng
glishmen of nomadic instincts. Num-
bers Of them annually purchase hunt
ing and camping outfits from the Hud-
son Bay company and strike into the
barren lands to prospect for minerals
or take up land on the prairies. But
most often they return to the civiliza-
ton of the towns with nothing but
hard words for the wilderness.
The construction of the T~emiscaming
railroad induced the younger son of
one wealthy English family to take q
trip into that outlandish district. He
returned to Ottawa a disappointed
man. Its the most Aesolate country
you can imagine" he said to his
friends. 81 have been out prospecting

>Te.tins the schoolma.ter.

'~ 40 .e-a records Of tho city Of
Ces.c2 tAyre is a curious passage
which records how a schoolmaster was
examined aud what happened. The
manner in which the visit Of inspection
is recorded makes one incline to the
view that the unlucky ,schoolmaster
may not have had fair play, although
II he ~ really inefficient lie may be
said to have been Judged by his peers.
In the record for the 22d of May,
1922, it is set forth that:

Whereupon 1t was voted that the

1t is true that nothing is said of the
methods of spelling inculcated at the

Of the record. but there is certainly

THE New York Sun has had

pondent in Hopkins county, who
was detailed from New York to
report the mining situation. He
has been reporting fully the daily
happenings and has made an ex-
haustive study of conditions ex-
listing here and the things that
have led up to the present state
of anarchy in Hopkins county,
after a long period of uninter-
rupted peace and contented pros
perlty at the non-unlon mines of
this coal field. We publish on
the first page of this issue a por-
tion of one of this correspond
ents' papers on the subject and

sues with other parts of this
special correspondence. It is in
teresting and valuable because it

investigation by an able repre-

that the latter is on the run.
There is no run, no backdown,
In this action-not a suspicion
of it. On the contrary it is an
action that will put the coal
company and its employees in a
position of strength to enforce
their right to conduct their bus
mess for their mutual benefit
and to prosecute their business
without the nagging and vicious
interference of paid agitators
and intimidators, to which they
have been subject for more than
a year.
The st. Bernard and other coal
companies of Hopkins county
have tried every way known to
the lawyers to induce the courts
to protect them from the outrag-
es to which they have submitted
for the past year. The circuit
court refuses protection asked
for and passed upon the case in
such a manner as to make it i'm
possible to take the case to the
court of appeals. The county
and state authorities have failed
to suppress murderous attacks
and the destruction of property.
The management of the ST.
Bernard Coal company has pub
licly expressed regret that there
should have arisen a necessity for
a change in the charter. The
concern has been so closely con-
nected with and contributory to
the resources of the county and
of the state that the gentlemen
who are at its head entertain SER
ious regret at the change. That
this regret is genuine cannot be
doubted, for the management of
the st. Bernard has postponed
action as to a foreign charter for
months in the hope that the civil
courts and county and state Off
cials would afford the protection
due their employees and them
selves in the carrying on of their
business of mining and shipping
coal. They have deferred action,
too, at no little cost. Had they
put aside months ago their senti-
ment in the matter and then Sc
cured the charter which they are
now about to get from the State
of Delaware, the st. Bernard
6oaif company would nave been
saved thousands of dollars and
its officials and employees would
have been relieved of much of
the exasperating experience and
many of the dastardly attacks to
which they have been subjected.

with sentiment aside, and the
decision of the st. Bernard and
other coal companies to move

the part of the competitive coal
operators, if they succeeded in
doing so, and second, there was
the very important point that
Mr.. Mitchell's organization was
very far from controlling the
mining industry of this State un-
less he had this district under his
domination.
In other words Hopkins coun-
ty became the strategic point in
the war which was to determine
whether persons and corpora
tions owning mining property in
the State should themselves con-
troll that property, or whether its
control should be handed over to
Nj. Mitchell and the wholly IT.
responsible organization of which
he is the head. These two facts
are sufficient to explain what
otherwise might seem almost in
comprehensive, and that is the
absolutely reckless desperation
with which the attack upon the
mining industries of this county
has been conducted.
1t is, in fact, a iife-and-death
struggle in which the United
Mine Workers have engaged, of
which the result means either
that. unionism does or does
not control the coal business
of the entire State of Ken
lucky. With this fortress of
non-unionism in Hopkins county
standing out adamant against
this rule, absolutely free through
a long series of years from strikes
or any semblance of strikes, pay
ing a higher average rate of
wages than has held in neighbor-
ing coal mining regions, its min
ers and laborers prosperous and
eontented, comfortable homes
passing into their hands, their
savings bank deposits and their
credits with the company con-
stantly growing, model condi-
tions of thrift, sobriety and or
derly living, subject to no union
committee tyranny, sure of con-
tinuous employment unlnter-
rupted by strikes, growing per-
haps out of troubles in remote
parts of the country with which
they have no concern-with this
fortress representing so much
that was abhorrent to union ideas
in his rear, Mr.. Mitchell's inva-
sion and conquest of Kentucky
was failure.

A, to Foreign Charters.

The announcement that the st.
Bernard Coal Company was pre-
pairing to surrender its Kentucky
charter and to secure charter
HRder- the laws of-the State OF
Delaware, in order to secure pro-
lection for its employees in pur-
suit of their labor and to shield
its property and its business from
the depredations of the United
Mine Workers of America, has
attracted wide attention and
elected no little comment from
press and people. This is not
surprising, for the st. Bernard
Coal Company is not only the
pioneer coal mining concern of
the greatest mining county in
Kentucky, but is the largest min
ing company in the State. The
beginnings of this company's op-
erations were the dawn of Hop
kins county's industrial develop
ment, and, with the growth of
this concern and the springlng
up of other mines, the county
has come up to an enviable place
as one of the wealthiest and most
prosperous counties in the State.
AS an indication of the growth
of this concern and the conse-
quent increase in the number of
its employees and in the money
paid in wages, the following fig
nres are sufficient:
In 1871, the year in which the
st. Bernard began operations at
darlington, the product~of its
mines was only 164,204 bushels.
Thirty years later, in 1901, the
product had increased so that
the years total output amounted
to 21, 1926, 1876 bushels of coal and
a large quantity of coke. All
this was paid for in wages and
Madisonville and the entire
county have profted greatly
thereby.
But somebody out in the
brush has gotten the impression
that the st. Bernard Coal Com
pany is a Corporation and
they are looking confidently for
it to break the chains "the peo-
plep have put on it, and eat up
somebody. Some others have
seen the headlines "Driven out
Of the State" over news dis
patches with reference to the
application for a foreign charter,
and some of these have con-
cluded this to mean that the
United Mine Workers have
whipped the coal company and
