McAlester, Okla, Jan. 22.--F'rom the
y acing OF large orders here to1ay by
the railroad companies II Is learned
that these corporations look upon the
probable coal miners strike the first of
April as an assured fact. The failure
OF the recent conference In Chicago
to reach anything looking like an
agreement and the action of the min

at indianapolis have created the
greatest anxiety in mining circles In
this district.
The railroad companies are evident.

America for this district, composed of

Last year was dull one for the
miners. The failure of crops added
to the otherwise short demand and
the miners were in hard straits for
several months. The opening of the
present winter brought p,enty of work
FOR them and they have paid up their
bills ami have some money ahead
now. With two and one-half months
full work they will be in good shape
by the first of April.
Many OF the miners will welcome a

employed in this district are Italians
and two years ago. pending the ga.
justment OF the new scale, hundreds
OF them made visits to the old country
and many are now making prepara.

From the large orders bcins Ilared
by the railroads It is evident that

THE GOLDEN GATE
By JOHN S. McGROARTY

Green Tamalpais, starward swung
Brown hill and harbor isle,
0 winding rivers, inland flung
Where sea lured valleys smile,
| see you from the waters wide,
| see you watch and wait
The wandering sail, the running tide,
That win the Golden gate.
| see you watch and wait, as when
In quest of Monterey,
Swart old Don Gaspar and his men
Looked on you first, that day;
| see you watch in mist and sun,
i As when the Spaniard bore,
In from the sea, his galleon
Where ship sailed ne'er before
Footsteps amany trod since then
The old Franciscan trail
Since swart Don Gaspar and his men
Since Juan de Aylas sail
From every trail, from every sea,
With eager hearts e1ate,
They wandered with what gods there be
TO seek the Golden gate

Every horse has six teeth above and

and last of the fore teeth. Between
and years the horse cuts the under
tusks. At he will cut-the upper tusks,

Far from gates of dawn they came,
And far from lands of morn
From out the distant sunsets fame
And round the stormy Horn
And all the roads, twas there they met.
Where bay to ocean spills,
And there the wanderers tents were set
On thrice the seven hills.
The brown robed padres pray no more
In cowl and sandal shoon,
When falls on golden sea and shore
The silver of the moon.
The Argos rotted keel is laid
Deep in the harbor's waves,
And they who wrought and they who prayed
Sleep long in silent graves.
Yet, as Of old, the running tide
Thrills through the Golden gate,
The rivers seek the ocean wide,
The brown hills watch and wait
The stars on Tamalpais gleam,
The lights flash out to sea,
