Government Control Seems Looming
I'D In the Distance.

Senator Hanna, who with other public
spirited citizens has been trying to settle
the great coal strike, reports that nothing
has been done. He plainly places the
blame for this failure upon the mine
operators, for he says the miners are
willing to arbitrate the matter, while the
operators persistently refuse to do so.
This statement by Mr. Hanna will un-
doubtedly add to the strength of public
sympathy in behalf of the miners. 1t is
also likely to lead to more earnest effort
to sustain the strikers in their fight for
living wages and decent conditions Of ex
istence, says the Colorado Springs Ga
zette.
thought to lead to some definite action
on the part of the state and national
authorities to protect the interests of the
people and of the nation by forcing the
stubborn mine operators to listen to
reason, and to consider the interests Of
some one besides themselves.
If these mine owners and operators are
able to tie up the factories and to deprive
the people of the eastern states of neoes-
sary protection from the inolemencies of
winter, it is high time that there should
be some change in the method of pro-
viding the necessary fuel for industrial
and domestic use.

Nathan Boone Frazier recently moved
from Ashgroye, Green county. Mo-. to
Rocky Ford and will become permanent
citizen. Mr.. Frazier was born in Boone
township. Green county, fifty-one years
ago. His mother. Melcena Boone Frazier.
died some years ago at the age of over
80 years. Mr.. Frazier lived in his native
place until he moved to Rocky Ford. He
has among his treasured family posses
sions the old family Bible in which is
written the birth. marriage and death Of
Daniel Boone as well as other facts of a
similar character relating to the Boone
family. Mr.. Boone is now living at No.
6o4 Ninth street and we trust will find
our city an even more desirable place to
live than Old Missouri. We dare not make
any slurring comparisons regarding Mis-
souri, as the melon and beet fields of

was active in displaying the work of the
Rocky Ford schools and vote of thanks
was rendered her by the school yesterday.
The Rocky Ford exhibit attracted much
attention and the Fair management asked
that another and larger exhibit be made
next year. A diploma and finely
framed picture will arrive soon as souve-
Mrs Of the excellent work Of our public
schools. The appreciative reception
given the drawings of our pupils at the
State fair should incte them to yet
