mand may be justified on the grounds
of self preservation, the plea is no less
one for monopoly of all the jobs in the
not going to find favor in the eyes of
the American people. If the miners can
obtain fair terms from the commission
and the public expects them to get
an increase in pay-public sentiment
will demand that they return to work,
even tho the "scab" is not robbed of
his job and driven from the mines. The
right of free man to work upon his
own terms, as a union man CT as a non
gardless of the wave of class sentiment
aroused by the labor union movement.
The one feature about the offer of
the operators that is open to just cen-
sure is the limitation they have placed
upon the composition of the commits
sion. Indirectly it is an insult to the
president, who should have been trust
ed to select the commission in any way
he chose. and as Mitchell was willing
members of the commission the oper-
ators confess the weakness Of asking to
select the arbitrator and suggest a
suspicion to the public that Quay or
the Pennsylvania railroad may know
something about that Judge in the
eastern district of Pennsylvania 1t
will be useless to think of arbitration
that will not recognize Mitchell and his
union, and likewise it will be useless to
tect the non-union men who have re-
manned at work With these two points
conceded by each side to the other both
should be willing to submit all other
differences to a fair minded commits
sion of disinterested parties, and If the
president is to be asked to select that
commission Morgan should not be al
lowed to insult the integrity of the
president by a proposition that refuses
to trust him in the matter. Morgan's
personal hostility to Roosevelt is we'll
known. but should be shamed out Of
court in this great pablo trial Nego-
tiations along these lines will undoubt-
edly take place before the miner and
operator can be drawn into an agree

is now willing to discuss arbitration.

IOWA NEWSPAPERS.
SIGN OF FIRST SNOW FALL.
Ida Grove Record.J

James F. Wilkinson is one OF the old
est pioneer settlers of Ida county, and
he has seen all sorts of weather under
all sorts of circumstances and predict
ions, and in commenting upon the COM
ing winter, he says: IF the first snow
storm comes from the northeast and
the snow remains upon the ground un-
til the snow falls again, look out! There
will be snow on the ground all winter,
and it won't be a very mild winter,
either."yVe have all confidence in Jim's
ability as a weather prophet, but think
he might have figured out better win
ter for u.s. In the face of shortage
of fuel and the winter such as he has
predicted Ida county is destined to go
thru one of the old fashioned winters
such as we have heard the old settlers
tell about. We sincerely trust and
pray that the first snow storm does not
come from the northeast, as this seems
to be about the only avenue of escape.
The weather prophets should temper
the winds to the shorn lambs this win
ter, at least.

Fue, Bricks Tested in Rochester.


The statement that terra GOTTA
brick, soaked in kerosene Oil, will burn
readily and makes an excellent substi-
tute for coal, has been productive OF
great interest thruout the city
Dealers in brick have been beseiged
with inquiries concerning the matter,
and one firm at least has announced
that it has a quantity of terra Gotta
brick on hand which it will sell to the
public.
Joseph ]. Mandery has placed at the
disposal, of the Express, for dis
tribution to those who have no other
sources of fuel supply, two and half
car loads of terra-cotta brick, now
stored at so Portland avenue.
At o'clock Friday afternoon a pub
lie demonstration was given OF the
efficacy of the new fuel. A small base
burner was placed in one of the front
windows of the Post-Express oftice,and
in it a number of soaked bricks We're
arranged and ignited. They burned
steadily for nearly an hour and threw
off sufficient heat to render the stove
too hot to be touched. Several Va
rieties were used. and it was found that
the common red brick would burn al
most as long as the terra-cotta kind.

Wall COVERINGS.

If you are planning to freshen walls
and ceilings for the winter, some OF
these suggestions made by an ex-
change may tit your case:
To varnish papers one must first give
them a coat of shellac
Varnished papers are next best after
tiles or hard painted finish in bath
rooms, nurseries and Kitchens.
For bedrooms nothing prettier than
the latter effects has been evolved.
Onyx, a paper really like number
of marbles, costs 60 cents sheet, "a

Striped bases are used quite bit.
Nothing is prettier than the delicate
MORE paper in pink, blue, lilac OF
maize.

narrow floral effects.
Paneled drawing rooms should not
have friezes. 1t cheapens the whole.

that 1t will not be the only battle

near at hand, if the signs of the times
are reliable. The trouble is not a local

mously, and the manner in which they
are fulfilled is one of The grave ques-
ions of the times.
"When wealth expends in single

tainment an amount of money the in
come of which woutt. mean atiluence To
thousands of faniles, Mnen it is used
to promote corners in the necessities OF
life or for desperate gambling in the

an effort to debauch elections or control
legislatures: when it considers that
everything is for sale--leSislatures and
courts. public officers, the honesty OF
men and the honor of women, it is hard
to overestimate the peril which it por-
tends.
On the other hand the senator urges
that where wealth is used to relieve
suffering. to promote education, to bring
works of art within the enjoyment OF
all, then it is protection and a
strength"
These are concentrations which
would have served AT any time, and
they seem hardly 10 touch the acute
phases of the subject lii the present.
The really great fortunes in the mod
ern American sense ale so vast that
they confer an unprecedented power
upon their possessors. This power is
such that the inclination of inis or that
individual to bestow part of his for
tune in public requests does not prove
its righteousness or its desirability from
the public standpoint. The money dis
pensed in charity may have been de-
rived ultimately from the debauching of
legislatures, and there is Il very general
feeling that the power can not be safely
intrusted to any man.
There is a feeling also that the
amusing of these huge fortunes should
be checked by some check on the lille
gal monopolies thru which many OF
them are secured. Senator Lodges idea
of the dependence of the people upon

THE ARBITRATION OFFER,

The latest offer to arbitrate differ
ences in the coal miners strike comes
from the operators and owners of the
mines, and comprises the appointment
Of an impartial commission by the
president, to whom shall be referred
/ all questions at issue, and whose decis-
ion shall be accepted, and work in the
mines to be Immediately resumed as
soon as the commission is formed. This
offer Is based upon the condition that
shere shall be no discrimination against
non-union men now employed or here
after engaged. It is also based upon
she understanding that the mine oper-
stors are not discriminating against
Ne miners organization.
sThe' miners and President Mitchell,
however have not decided upon ac-
ceptance. Considerable opposition was
manifested in the ranks of the miners
when the offer was first preached. As
President Mitchell for the miners made
a somewhat similar offer to submit
differences to an arbitration board APP
spointed by President Roosevelt, 1t
would appear to be incumbent upon the
Miners and their leaders to submit to
s,lch settlement. The chief difference
h1atween the two propositions lies in the
