There is talk of another coal strike in the air, and all because the opera tors and owners of the mines do not want to keep the pledges they made to the coal strike commission. The agreement at that time was that there should be a division of the whole re- zion into three districts, in each of which there shall exist an organization representing majority of the mine workers of such district; one of said board of conciliation shall be appoint ed by each of said organizations, and three other persons shall be appointed by the operators, the operators In each of said districts appointing one person. The operators now refuse to recognize some of the officials of the unions, and are acting in bad faith, says the Hart ford Post by refusing to meet the duly accredited members of the board of conciliation representing the three dis trict organizations of mine workers. They owe it to the public to recede from their position and allow the board to organize and settle all dis putes. The plain terms of the com missions award, which they have agreed to abide by, require such a board and the operators should endeav- or to settle all disputed questions har- moi1iously. It would be great ca lamity If the arbitrary attitude of the operators should undo all that has been accomplished by the coal strike commission

Marriageable young men who give much of their time and considerable of their earnings in the way of gifts to marriageable young women should have a care lest they find themselves in the same predicame1lt as the Sara toga young man who has had to shell out three thousand good dollars for his backward4tess. The New Haven Union says that the man Kept com pany with the woman for fourteen years and then went with a younger and handsomer girl. The plaintiff testified that the defendant had kissed her exactly 1,236 times during the courtship. The jury should have re- garded this piece of evidence with sus- pieion-not as to its accuracy, but be- cause it was presented ill evidence The statistical young woman with a sweetheart is to be avoided. Every time she receives kiss, instead of throwing something at Cupid and 4CdChiHS lO LuCh uP a lSW strands Of hair loosened by the as- sault, she thinks of a jury box and wonders what twelve men would think of that. Then she makes a note in her little book and wonders if, after all, 1t wouldn't be better money -mak- ing scheme to syndicate her kisses. Sometimes she does, but oftener she stays by the man who has the money. Any girl who would wait fourteen years for man would not make a good wife, anyhow. The evidence on the face of it shows that she was too slow. She could never have break fast ready until lunch time.

News From frisco.

@. M. Harris, writing home from
San Francisco states that he would
like to have the people Of Cache Co. in
that city for one week, so they could
see how the great Estey pianos are be-
ing sold. Sherman, Clay & Co., second
largest music firm in the United
States, make this statement in one
of their advertisements: "Our expert
ence covering over forty years, has
taught us that for $4OO cash the Estey
pianos are the best that are made to
sell at that figure. The wonderful
Steinway runs from 1915 to $1,000. If
better pianos were made THAT could
be sold for $4OO) we would give up the
agency for the better instrument.
We can take stand of this kind be-
cause the factories prefer as agents
the larger concerns, selling the greater
number Of instruments"
This is great point in favor Of the
Harris Music Co. People know that
in large cities where there is so much
competition, prices are down to bed
rock, and yet this is just what the
Harris Music Co. has been selling the
Estey, for $4OO cash. They have been
doing better than Sherman, Clay g. Co.
because they have been giving larger
sized piano for $500. They have never
claimed that the Estey piano Is the
best in the world but have always ad-
mitted that the great Steinway piano
is entitled to that place; but as the
best Steinways cost 500 and great
deal is charged for the name, they
have pinned their faith to the Estey.
Here is a claim they do make: A
shrewd buyer can purchase almost
any upright piano made except the
Steinway for 800 cash. If he cannot,
let him turn the money over to the
Harris Music Co. and name his piano,
letting them get it for him. But it
would be safer to take the Estey, and
then he knows what he isgetting.
The above statement coming from
a firm like Sherman, Clay & Co. a
copy Of which can be seen at the Har-
ris Music Store will have great weight
with most people because a house Of
their standing would not dare to put
out an advertisement Of that kind II
the Estey pianos were not what they
claim to be.
