SETTLING STRIKES.

Canada can give these glorious Unit
ed States pointers on how to adjust Ia
Dor troubles. The recurrent strikes in
this country-with their splashes of
blood-their heavy burdens on the in
nocent-only serve to accentuate this
fact. Canada's success demonstrates
what this country lacks-and shows
the sanity and craftsmanship that is
cardinal feature of the well-balanced
"Our Lady of the Shows"
In March, 1907, there went into OPP
Grafton in Canada, an act for the main
tenanoe of industrial peace in all pub
lie utilities, including mines This was
named the Industrial Disputes Inves-
tigation act. It's salient feature was
that in the event of a controversy be
tween employer and employee in any
industry known as public utility--it
should be illegal for either side to de-
clare a strike or lock-ou until an in
vestigation of the case had been made
by the board of Cancellation and in
stigation--establishe under specified
rules by the Canadian minister of la
Dor.
In the event of controversy, either
party to the dispute was privileged to
apply for the appointment of board
of investigation-to which he was also
privileged to name one of three mem
bers. The other party to the quarrel
might then name another. These two
could select third. Then Cancellation
and arbitration began.
If one party declined to nominate a
member for the board of investigation
the act empowered the minister of
labor to perform that office in his be-
half Inevitably, then, arbitrative pro-
.ceedings began-if either party applied
for relief
Meanwhile, by law, both sides were
prohibited from strike or lockout or
overt act.
What has been in two years the re-
suit of this sanity?
Out Of fifty-five cases in which ap-
plication was made for a board of in
vestigation, fifty three were settled
without stoppage of work.
The law permits a strike or lock-
out after the stated negotiations and
attempts at arbitration fail. But two
in fifty five is a good record for COM
mon sense

would feel that the president did not
exaggerate in praising the immense
value Of Mr.. Pinchot'a work and poll
cies with reference to a15restry and
kindred methods of conservation" and
all will be glad that be gave ringing
expression OF hts personal sympathy
for those policies and OF his purpose
to do everything he could TO maintain
them. The president reiterated his
purpose to keep all the activities Of his
administration within the law, but he
asserted at the same moment his In
tention to press upon congress the
need OF changes in the law whereby
the execution OF the conservation poll
cies could be put on the firmest basis.
AS the case now stands, with both
Mr.. Ballinger and Mr.. Pinchot remain
ing in the administration, what rivalry
there is between them may very profit
ably turn itself out of personal chan
nels and into the work of doing the ut
most possible to protect the forests,
lands, waters and minerals of the gov
eminent from spoliation. Mr.. Pinchot
will continue to work with all his
might. Mr.. Balllnger will have to
struggle hard to make as good show
ing or gain as much credit But all
will hope that he will succeed.
No one desires either official to go
outside the law in the execution of
the policy. But every one may proper
ly expect both to do all that the law
permits and to decide all questions of
administrative discretion in the way
most favorable to the chosen policies.
To go beyond the law would be wrong.
But to fall an inch short of what the
law permits would be equally wrong.

u. 5. BACKS new
IRRIGATION WORK
EX-SENATOR GREEN TELLS OF
THE WONDERFUL IRRIGATION
PROJECT AT HERMIsToN,
WHICH He STATES is A REeu-
LAR GARDEN or EDEN.

Only a few days ago. President Taft
pressed the button and started the
Gunnison Tunnel irrigation project.
This news interested every portion of
the United States; 15O, 900 acres are
expected to be reclaimed in this tract.
and rendered At for intensive curti-
walton.
The government today has $50OOO,-
600 invested In reclamation work. and
thirty lone projects are included in
various parts of the country. Ex-
Senator Green, in chatting with a
representative OF The Forum. stated
"the reports of this bureau show the
Umafilla plat is classed as second in
importance-not so much because of
its size. but because OF the soil, the
climate. the possibilities, the variety
OF crops which may be raised and the
nearness to large cities, affording the
best possible market. There are a.
600 acres in this plat, and this is
where Hermiston Is located.
1.-THE water system is not projected
but completed. Already 1t Is in sue
cessful operation, and not only the
government behind the system, but it
has built the system, a vast earthen
dam-one Of the largest in the world
the big feed canal, the los miles of
canals and bitches, and the twelve
miles of steel, reinforced concrete pine
line, just the best experts knew how. to
last forever. 1t has completed a reser-
yoir with capacity Of 5000, 0OO, 600
cubic feet of water, or enough to
cover every acre in the project three
feet deep but which will only be
drawn upon for a reserve supply dur
ing the dryest months of the SUM
mer.
The soil is very rich, sandy loan,
carrying a high percentage of ash, and
the accumulated silt Of centuries. It
Is very deep, from four to forty feet,
and unusually free from aIlxali. Gov
eminent analyses have shown that 1t
contains every element necessary to
plant nourishment. 1t is similar to
land which is now selling at $4,000
per acre. The quality and depth of
the SOIL says D. w. Heileman, soils
engineer, u. S. reclamation service,
had much to do with the govern
ment's undertaking this project
There are other places where there
are larger tracts to be irrigated, but
none has better prospect than the
Hermiston one, because of the soil;
the extensiveness of the water supply,
and its permanency; the superb cli-
mate; the variety OF products which
may be grown; the nearnees to large
cities, like Portland, Seattle and Ia
coma, and in fact the modern conven-
fences which make life rleasanr apd
these will make this tract one of ac-
tual homes, surrounded with every
thing prosperity brings to the hearth
side, instead Of simply being an abid-
ing place
"By this time,' remarked Mr..
Green, "You may begin 20 believe that
am stuck on Hermiston. and / be-
lieve 1t is the ideal spot, coming Just
as near to the Garden OF Dden which
I expect to find in this world, and the
model for the one hope to find here
after in the great beyond"

STATUS OF plNcHoT.

The Ballinger- Pinchot controversy
has attracted lot Of attention In the
west. Public sympathy and support
has undoubtedly been with the head of
the forestry bureau Recent develop
ments have placed new shade on the
AFFAIR. The following from The Chi
cago Record Herald is a conservative
comment on the situation:
President Taft's letter to Secretary
Ba1linger expressing his full confidence
In that official contained no reflections
upon the attitude taken by Chief For
ester Pinchot None but Mr.. Balm
gers extreme partisan friends interpre-
ted 1t In that way Nevertheless, ii is
d great satisfaction to find now that
the letter had as a companion letter
To Mr.. Pinchot in which the president
duly recognized the services Of the lat
ter to the government and expressed
the hope that those services would long
continue to be given.

N. D. cHILDREN's HOME.

North Dakotans have a broad char
ity. They are usually with open
purses when there is a meritorious
cause The support of the North Da-
kota Children's home is one Of the
things that appeals to the people of
the state and they usually respond
promptly and substantially to official
appeals for assistance.
1t will not be 'ong till the home will
face the problem of meeting the ad-
ditional expenses of the winter months.
The increased price of supplies, the
necessity for a lot Of fuel and hun
dreds of other causes increase the cost
of operating the institution during the
winter months.
One Of the most notable occasions
for contributions to the home is on
Thanksgiving day. The good people of
the state provide literally from their
bountiful stores for the innocent little
waits whom misfortune has placed in
the care of the state. Prior to that
date Superintendent Hall will no doubt
Issue his annual circular to the people
OF the state requesting contributions.
The home is doing a great work 1t
furnishes q place where the officials of
each county in the state can send local
charges. The superintendent or some
one in connection will go after the
little ones and transport them to the
home. In other cases of dire poverty
and distress the officials of the home
take the initiative and care for the I'M
fortunate tots.
OF the hundreds of children for whom
the institution has found homes, only
one has been sent out of the state
That was a child placed through a
campaign inaugurated by an eastern
publication. The others have found
kind and loving hearts within the
boundaries of North Dakota. Superin-
! tendent Hall is compelled to exercise
great care in placing the children
Each applicant must be investigated
and every effort is made to insure
proper treatment OF the wards.
It is not always possible to supply q
child just at the moment the applicant
wishes, but the requests of each person
are filed and when there is a babs
that meets the requirements--even Il
months later-the matter is then taker
up.
Superintendent Hall announces us.
ually the supply is not equal to tn,

are much more wanted than mere boys

as Chauncey sings them, they touca

Mr.. Olcott makes his curtain speech
in response to the hearty applause
that greets him after the second act.
No performance would be complete
without singing of NY Wild Irish
Rose, which above all of Mr.. Olcott's
ballads seems to hold its place in pop

sing My Wild Irish Rose, and the song
never fails to delight.
