The coal strike in the east l.
still on and the operators say that
there will be no compromise with
the men. On the other hand Pres.
Mitchell, of the unior, states that
the companies will have to give in
sooner or later. Meanwhile the
poor people have to pay exorbltant
rates for fuel. The annual mixup
of the miners and operators of the
coal regions is one of the create st
clogs on business interests and it is
no wonder that the people who are
injured by it should be in favor OF
the government taking over these
mines and operating them for the
benefit of the people. In the east.
ern states the fuel problem is as
important to the people as that of
transportation and sooner or later
it will have to be settled satisfac-
torily to the consumer of the mine
products. People are not always
going to stand the work of the
monopolistic coal barons much
longer and an effort will be made
in the next congress to have the
government condemn the mines and
take them over. This great source
of fuel supply should be in the
hands of the people, and it is sure
to come.

ings. The mine has considerable ore
in sight and the last uperintendent,
Mr.. Scrutton, stated that he could
have outputted d large amount of pay
ore when the shutdown order was re-
ceived. On the 500 level there is a
nice body of ore, but this ore has not
been exploited below that level, which
work will DOW be carried on to quite a
depth. It is the opinion of scientific
men that the character of the ore will
change for the better near the 1000
level, and that gold zone will be en-
countered.

richest of minerals and that some day
these rich veins will be found In the
north end of the mountains thousands
of dollars in rich gold ore have already
been taken from small veins, while the
larger and low grade lodes have been
untouched. As conditions change the
big veins will be worked at profit and
will yield thousands of dollars an

The people of the South side are
complaining of the removal of all the
hitching posts from the grounds South
of Hollister Lumber yards. 1t is not
only an injustice to those In business
there but likewise to the farmers who
are trading with our merchants and
implement dealers. Facilities should
not only be provided but constantly
maintained to enable farmers to Sc
curely tie their teams while trading
or getting their mail. The man who
has but few moments to tarry in
town, certainly has right to safe
place for his team in the meantime.
The man who has but few moments
to spend in town does not care to put
his team in feed barn having driven
in from near by, while those from a
distance usually put their teams in

city council contemplate their perma-
nent removal.

In our last issue we gave quite a
complete account of the disaster at
Decorah and following we give some
further information thereto cleaned
from the Decorah Republican.
Scores were in deadly peril and many
narrow escapes were reported. Many
fled from their homes to places of safe
ty, needlelssly, it appeared, after the
worst was over, while others had to
fight their way from places of utmost
danger. Still others imperilled them
selves in acts of relief for others and
in rescuing poor dumb bruteS that
were imprisoned in barns or caught
in the flood. 1t was in an act of the.
latter kind that Uncle John Carver
lost his life. Little realizing the dan
ger that was about to beSet him he
went into his garden to look after his
chickens. This was the last seen of
him alive. His dead body was found
in the yard after the flood subsidized.
The other death came into the home
of Charles Clark. Mr.. Clark lives near
the milwaukee tracks west Of maple
avenue and had succeeded in getting
his family out of the house. His wife
who was crrrying little three year
old child, was swept from her feet and
lost her hold on the baby and it was
carried away in the flood. The re-
mains were found in some debris near
the Milwaukee freight depot. MT.
Clark got the rest of the family into a
tree, bound himself to its trunk and
remained there until it was safe to at
tempt to reach better place.
| The Republican places the property
damage 100000, not including the
damage to railroad property, and says
it is the largest in the history of the
Decorah floods, and adds:
Yesterdays flood in the Upper Iowa
was q big one; but not the biggest.
| Those whose recollectionS are good,
distinctly remember when Jimmy
Goran was taken out Of his house on
State street, West Decorah, with the
water up to the window sill. Our
recollection is distinct of seeing the
| flood up to the window stills Of the
