Four years ago last month the
heroic Andree and his two compan-
ions set sail for the north pole in the
basket of their air ship. Theirs was
the most forlorn of forlorn hopes. an
impossible adventure. But did ever
three men bark on a desperate I'M
dertaking, going forth TO certain
death, more cheerfully? All hope
that any one of the three is still alive
has been abandoned for many q
month, and extracts on Arctic explor-
a.ion do not believe that any trace of
them will ever be found. Never were
aeronauts more daring or explorers
more foolhardy. Their sepulchre is
probably in the eternal ice.

or NAV not end favorably TO the steel
workers. There seems TO be ten
dency of fear on the part of certain
of the men that the trust is too pow
erful. aud that IL they strike and lose
the strike they will he outcasts from
their fields of labor and will be in
definitely injured by the strike. or
course they run this risk. But II is
merely following union principle TO
run this risk. The fact of the
matter is. with the administration
aiding and abetting the trust and
not aiding the workmen the trust
must necessarily increase in power
and the workmen lose strength
and power. To protect trusts means
to weaken the people, for trusts are
the despoilers of the people. Hence
it is seen that strikes may henceforth
prove futile. There is but one sure
way left clear for labor to assert it.
self and get the rights due it. That
is for the people to vote the way they
strike. as William Jennings Bryan
has suggested. In the last issue of
the Commoner Mr.. Bryan says of the
steel strike:
''At the hour of going to press the
strike seems to be spreading. No one
can say how serious it may become.
but indications point to a prolonged
contest between the steel trust and
organized labor. Some who ought to
sympathize with the employees profess
to see nothing of Importance at issue,
but the fact is that the contest, while
apparently over an abstract principle,
it really involves the right of the
lGboring men TO organize. 1t is un-
doubtedly the purpose of the trust TO
destroy labor organizations, and the
purpose will be relentlessly pursued
if the time seems ProPitious. 1t is
strange that any labOriug man should
fail to understand the nature OF pri-I
vate monopoly or give any support
whatever to the enormous consolida-
ton of capital which is now going on.
II means death to the wage Garner as
well as the destruction of industrial
independence. In a test of endurance
between capital and labor capital has
every advantage. Unless all the mills
are completely unionized the trust
can run the non-union shops and keep
the union ones closed indefinitely.
The trust can afford TO lose a years
ployes can net afford TO lose years
work.
The strike is at present the labor
ing mans only protection, but it
is at present a costly and ineffective
one. The ballot box afT ords the only
permanent and complete remedy. If
the laboring men would march TO the
polls and vote with the party that
favors arbitration and opposes gov
eminent injunction and the black
list. they would be able to protect
their interests without a resort to
strikes and lockouts.
'In the meantime, the strikers
should be careful TO avoid any resort |
to violence. Among q large number
OF men. especially when excited. there |
are apt to be those who would be |
willing to use force, but the wiser |
ones should restrain these. The de- |
struction of property or an attack on |
non-union men will injure the cause |
of organized labor. While the strike |
lasts let it be conducted within the |
law; when the strike is over let the
men remember to vote the way they |
strike -

MERCER county this year has
raised a new grain of German extrac-
ton and called smeltz, says the AledO
Times-Record. The grain promises
TO be a great food for stock and is ex-
ceptionally productive. 1t has the
appearance of barley while growing
as well as when threshed. Isaac T.
Close, of Duncan, this year grew 10
acres, which produced $50 bushels.
Last year he had an acre which grew
over so bushels. The straw is of
a variety which is as good for stock
rs oats straw. There appears to be
hardly any question but that this will
prove a valuable addition to stock
foods.

A true history of the state convention
which nominated Mr. Orni an would show
that Governor Thomas was not the lat
teri sincere friend until after the nom
nation. OF course, he then gave him his
consistent and able support. Boulder
county repeatedly begged MIR Speer to
give Arapahoe's vote to Orman and he
as often delayed, challenging Boulder
always to join with Arapahoe in starting
a boom for Judge Edward c. Stinson. of
Cripple Creek. There was Thomas
choice for the nomination and it is Idle
now to talk Of his favoring Orman. He
only permitted Arapahoe to 90 to Orman
when it appeared that Maupin. who was
backed by Tom Maloney. was likely to
secure the nomination. Orman's only
true and Consistent friend in that conven.
tion-we speak of leaders-was former
governor Alva Adams.
