GERMAN LABOR STRIKES.

BERLIN Aug. 2O:-According te
 statistics just published in the Ger man Imperial Labor Gazette" Ger many leads in the number of strikes
 From the figures given it would seem that the German workmen are usually far from satisfied. Accordin, to the figures there were 1347 strikes in Germany in 1908 alone, against 399 in England. France and Austria had respectively 1O73 and 721. Ger. many. too. had far more strikes than any country in Europe in 1909.
 Of 14i9 German strikes for higher wages 255 were successful. 4Ss par tially so. and 67e failed. The Ger man trade unions dlsbursed on ac- count of strikes in 1907 the sum of S3.50O,O0O, or 31 per cent. of their total expenditure for all purposes: while the British unions in the same period paid out only s665. 900 for strikes, or s1z per cent. of their az gregate expenditure. The British un- ions devoted 66 per cent. of their strike outlay to the support of idle strikers, against 29 per cent. devoted to the same purpose in Germany. The discrepancy is due to the fact that the German workmen's insurance system relieved the trade unions of many burdens which the unions .n England have to bear.

THE NEW MINER.

Fl E =
 Not every man that goes under ground as a miner is competent or filling that position. Very often men who have never been underground tired of doing the Marathon around to the different mines: seeking to be engaged as muckers when the op- pertunity offers, hire out as miners.
 When the foreman draws his Zip toward him, and pausing with pencil in the air asks, Are you a miner
 The young man has visions of a nice new. badly needed meal ticket and re- plies, T'Yes Sir" He is sure of three fifty anyway. He chokes a little as he says it and shivers of apprehen- sion run up and down his back as the foreman surveys him from head to foot. Taking in his physical makeup and looking at him in a T don't think you are a miner but you may be sort of way. Before going on shift the recruit gets all the pointers he can, his chief enquiries generally be ing. how to load a hole. It seems in credible but men who have never been underground, have worked for days and held their positions. Of course the men working around them spotted their ignorance at once. but it just happened that they were pard- ners with an old miner and they had time to get a little wise to under ground lore However the chances are only one in a hundred that a green miner will stick underground over one or two shifts. From the time he steps on the cage he is in an en- tirely different atmosphere. and be- fore he has piched up a tool to go to work, those working with him know that he has never been under ground before. Yet some of them man age to stay. The following story is of one who didn't:
 He was badly in need of three squares" and when the foreman asked him fl he was a miner, he ans wered. "Yes. Sir in a positive tone that would make one believe that what he didn't know about mining had been torn out of the book. He showed up at the shaft house in nice new overalls and dinner bucket and presented his clearance at the time window got his metal check When he got on the cage he got on back ward facing away frob the bell rope The eager muttered.

get away from. The new man got to the stope in company with his com panions The only mishap being that he lost his light two or three times, and dropped the top off his dinner
 bucket going up the man-way. He was working down on the floor be-
 low the rest of the miners and for a starter he mad a pile of muck" he
 couldn't look over.
 Whenever the shift boss came around he was busily shoveling. He finished up the ore pile after the shift boss came around after dinner and
 wondered what he ought to do next. Going to the floor above he saw the miners had cleaned up their ore piles and were putting in holes in the soft face with augers. That looked pretty easy so he fOud him a 'Cl2usen drihp on his floor and managed to put in a couple of holes. That done he went down to the magazine with the rest of the men for powder He took as many sticks of powder as he thought he needed, and as the fuse was cap ped and crimped he got back to the stope without mishap. He had gone along successfully so far and was commencing to compliment himself that mining was easy Suddenly it dawned upon him that he had no idea how to load his holes for firing. He was afraid of asking for informa- ton as he was afraid that his com panions were already suspicious of his mining ability. So he looked hard at the powder, then at the fuse, and then at thehole. He knew that the powder went into the hole and that tho fuse exploaded the powder. but just how he had no idea. Finally brilliant idea hit him. and he was sure he had discovered the way. About this time the shifter came around on his final round. He walked over to where his new man was, but just before he got there he stopped. He looked, then rubbed his eyes. then looked again. Then be leaned up against a post for. breath. The miner? had put the powder in the hole then pushed then end of the fuse in leaving the caps dangling outside. Then he had taken a handful of rocks and retired behind a post a little way back. When the shifter came in he was aiming rocks at the caps then lodging behind the post Finally the boss came to life. Waking over to him seized him by the shoulder and fairly shouted at him. "I thought you said you were a miner" The miner sfraightened himself up in offended dignity and replied.

INSULTING THE FLAG

The Phoenix Republican has reached the flag-waying stage in the campaign to deliver a canned con stitution to Arizona. The flag is go ing to be the emblem at the head of the Maricopa county republican tick ct, and the Republican calls upon all to behold the lovely sight. In the opin- ion of the Republican. the ticket over which the Stars and Stripes wave is the only one that "stancs for the continuance of the American form of government" All others are spurious. socialistc and anarchistic, and should be graced by a red flag of anarchy.
 Whereat we hear tremendous ap- plause from Rhode Island. where dwells the impeccable Aldrich. he Of the rubber trust, who is going to help Taft pass upon the constitution-if Taft does not awaken too soon. Also from Danville. Illinois, comes the stamp of approval. for what is this alleged representative govern ment but a conspiracy against Uncle Joe" and all he stands for? Do not "Unole Joe" and Aldrich personify the American form Of government" about which the Phoenix organ speaks so glibly? Not only that, but they per sonify the canned constitution, pre- pared in Washington, now ready to cram down the throats of the people if the federal office holders win in the election September 12.
 The flag waving of the Republ can would be more inspiring spectacle if were not for the company it keeps It is touching to have the Republican tell us how fitting it is for the Mar icopa standpat ticket to have as it's emblem the Stars and Stripes-that flag, the sight Of which sends a thrill through the veins of every patriotic American" That depends upon what it is being waved for There is an unmistakable thrill attending this flag waving over the decaying and malodorous form of standpatism and trust robbery-but it is a thrill Of disgust and indignation
 The old flag cannot help its pros titution in such a cause, and when snug political bosses and federal office holders use it in their effort to make Arizona political suburb Of Rhode Island, let us smother our dis gust by thinking of something else really associated with the glories of the old fag-say.

developing on both sides. Women will branch out beyond their home duties, not neglect them, but learn and know something above and be- yond them. And men will learn to care for the woman who has some thing in her head besides housekeep- ing and dress. He will find that con- genial companiOnship and real help are more in a wife than mere amuse- ment or relaxation. He will come to prefer a thinking being to a mere doll or a cook. The average man is apt to look askance today at the new woman who has ideas outside aud beyond the home. and who goes out into the world for her work. But he will come to see that for lifelong companionship. such a woman will bring more real joy and pleasure and helpfulness into his life than thg one whose mind cannot get away from the cook stove and a new dress.

 One little danger there is in sGc5 marriages. The two must be big enough and really care enough for each other to desire the others ad- vancement. and be willingly unselfish to further it all possible. If there is the least bit of jealousy of the others work or achievements, there is likely to be trouble. But if real love is in the marriage. there is little likelihood of this rift in the lute" appearing. True love thinks first and always of the other, not of self

TEDDY AND TAFT

Save me Teddy. or I sink" says Taft. And what says Teddy? Will he throw himself at the head of q fo-lorn hope and try to snatch a thoroughly scorched brand from the burning? Win he make a rush-reu- ben campaign from ocean to ocean? Or will he say, T put you in the game; left you on velvet. You got yourself into this hole by bad play. Just get yourself out"
 Already has the ex-president had defeat as his portion of heedlessly putting into the melee at Albany. There is not the smallest likelihood that he can pull anybody's chestnut out of the fire in the West. The Taft administration is in a bad state of collapse. The voters everywhere are disappointed. They refuse to face two ways. with Aldrich and Cannon at one end. and with La Toilette and Bristow at the other.

 Nay. nay! Teddy cannot retrieve the disatser Maybe he will not care to try If he takes the raging stump he will have to accept Aldrich and Cannon. or reject them; he will have to defend Beveridge. Bristow and La Toilette. or repudiate them. He will have to meet the issue raised by Ballinger.
 Throwing Jonahs to the whale of outraged public sentiment will not sufice. It is too, too late for the deathbed repentance stunt to serve it's purpose. One reads of Cranes pilgrimage to Beverly. and thence 10 Minnesota and back again, with amused interest. The effort to patch up a peace recalls a chapter of re- publican history thirty years old now.
 In 1880. there was a feud between the Garheid-Blaine crowd on the one hand and the Grant-Conkling crowd on the other hand. This had waved hotter and hotter through Q great many years. Each party to 1t was obstinate to the point Of recall citrancy. But danger makes queer bed-fellows. Toward the middle or the campaign of that year it looked as though General Hancock, the dem ocratic nominee for president, was going to sweep the country. Appeals were made by party friends to the warning faction-fghters. The story ran that Garfield and Blaine mace many concessions and entered into certain distinct agreements. Gradu- ally. but in time. the feudal lines of battle sagged and toward the close it went forth that the thoroughbreds led by Grant and Conkling and the haIfbreeds led by Garfield and Blaine had come together and were com pietely reconciled. The goose swung ] high again and Garfield was elected, only to go to his doom for, as the partisans of Grant and Conkling said the halfbreeds no sooner got there. -Garfeld in the White House and Blaine in the department of state than they proceeded to violate their engagements. resulting the tragedy of which Guiteau played the part Of Nemesis.
 Such deals generally go astray. They carry @ sinister character and are pretty sure to disappoint some body. The "armin-arm" Philadelphia convention Of 1866, got up to make a fusion of republicans and democrats in support of Andrew Johnson. brought about not a tragedy but comedy. and fooled quite a number of prmising patriots
 It won't do to try such tactics now. If is foo late in the day. Truth 10 say. the faith is rarely kept. The peo- ple know this. They are onto Taft. They are onto Crane. And Teddy can't mend matters.

It was two months ago Director Alciatore re- marked that winter was gone. It is the hope of every horticulturalist and agriculturalist in the state that the cold weather has gone to stay, and everyone else also hopes there will re nothing more to kill the little fruit and vegetation left.
