THE COAL FAMINE.

Unless the reports are much exagger-
ated great coal famine is already
causing extreme distress in the North
west especially in Minnesota and North
Dakota. In portions of that region
there is no coal or other fuel. the Lum-
Der Trust having long since stripped it
of what little there was Of its virgin
forests. The mind shrinks from con
templating the extent Of the calamity
when the Northern winter really sets
in. with its blzzards and with the ther-
mometer at ten or twenty degrees be-
low zero. # help is to be obtained at
all not an hour can be lost by delays.
This is no time for the slow delbera-
tions Of the Interstate Commerce Com
mission The railroads must act. and
with the utmost promptitude. by clear
ing the tracks for the coal trains. no
matter what commodities besides coal
are waiting for transportation
To the want of cars is generally as
cribed this coal famine 1t is said that
the great railroads Of the Northwest
have been unable for months to move
the greatly increased freights Of grain
and other commodities because Of in
sufficient rolling stock But this hardly
serves as an adequate explanation for
the coal famine There is abundance
Of coal and as many ears to transport
it as last year without much greater
demand. The conditions are such that
suspicious have already arisen that the
scarcity of fuel in the Northwest has
been produced by the coal mbnation
with the cruelty deliberate purpose of
forcing up the price of its product.
This is only suspicion, and the railroad
companies can relieve themselves Of
their share of the implication in it by
clearing their tracks So as to relieve
the distress.
So far as the alleged combination is
concerned. ample supplies Of both an
thracite and bituminous coal are waiting
to be moved at prevailing prices. The
whole question is up 70 the great rail
road companies that traverse the North
west. If they fail to meet this terri
bic emergency at once, not only will
great responsibility for the loss Of life
lie at their doors, but they will put
new argument into the mouths Of the
advocates of Government ownership Of
all the means Of transportation.
