UNCLE SAM BRANCHES
OUT AS COAL MINER
Produces Fuel at Less Cost Than Pri-
vate Owners and Pays His
Workers More.

Grand Forks, n. Oak. Sept S.-Minins
Ignite coal for the Williston. y. Oak
reclamation project, the United States
government has successfully demonstrate
ed its ability to handle the mining ques-
ton by producing coal at cost below
that of private mine owners, and It also
is paying better wages to miners. In
handling the mining question in the Will
Iiston project, the United States govern
ment has created conditions in marked
contrast with those existing in the East
ern coal mining districts.
Expert coal miners, and practically all
of the men employed by the government
are skilled i'm their work, receive from
81 to s. a day, working on the tonnage
basis. which is remarkable in contrast
with the average wage of s. a day for
coal miners. In addition TO better
wages, the government has created bet
ter conditions for its, miners. They have
their shower baths, Private lockers. bunk
rooms for single men. and restaurant
where the miners can obtain meals at
- cents each.
The United States miners are well sat
isfied. and jobs in the government project
are much sought after. As rule the
government gives employment, when pos
sible, to married men, showing a pref
erence for a family head.
As against an average cost in private
mines of about $50 a ton, the United
states is mining its coal at about $i30.
and Engineer W. s. Arthur, in charge OF
the project. anticipates that ultimately
the cost OF mining will he reduced to 81.
Delivered at the project station, coal
mined by private owners would cost the
government about $50 ton.

CAPITALS INFLUENCE
A WORLDWIDE FORCE
Rev. James S. Montgomery Tells of
Great Example 1t Is Possible for
Washington to Set.
FORMER PASTORS WIFE DEAD

Members OF the Metropolitan Meth
odist Church voiced their deep and
sincere sympathy by resolutions with
their former pastor, John Reed Shan
non. in the loss OF his wife, who died
last Friday in Boston. following a seri-
Gus operation. This action was taken
at a special meeting of the board yes
terday.
copy Of the resolutions was sent
to DR.. Shannon, who. since resigning
his Washington pastorate. three years
ago. has occupied chair at the Bos-
ton Theological Seminary.
The death of Mrs. shannon. who had
won the deep regard and affection of
her husbands congregation during his
residence in the Capital. was men
toned by Dr. James Shera Montgom-
cry, present pastor OF the Metropoli-
tan Methodist Church. in his sermon.
Our Capital City" last night.
DR.. Montgomery used the subject of
his sermon to emphasize the greater
duties of the people in this city, which
is so conspicuous in the eyes of the
country and OF the world as the Amer
lean Capital
"Our city is an opportunity, a strategic
center of power and influence" said he.
What is meant by the term "A Chris
tian City?' Are We to understand by
this phrase that every citizen is a Chris
tlan? Is Christian city to be understood
as one in which some faith of religion is
established by law? No: this is not he
meaning. But a city that is Christian
is distinguished by a certain atmosphere,
temper. tone and character which draw
their lives from the high ethical teach
fy,ar ng he TaW Of
II is worth more for the redemption
OF this wide wide world to make our
city Christian than it is to Christianize
the whole continent of jungle and prairie.
The Ner and influence of Christian
Washington over the whole world round
would be like a giant sounding-board
whose ministeries. sympathy and right
eOusness would echo from shore to shore.
Washington has a great conception of
what she ought to be. When some great
want comes to others: when a loud call
for help reaches us; when commercial or
civic pride are threatened how quickly
our citizenship responds. Instantly our
citizens come forth who were only wait
ing for the summons.
We think of the marvellous benevoience
of our city: we think of the tides of
mercy which flow forth from the public
and private purses. What does it all
mean? Criticise. minimize all this as
you like: juggle our faults up and down
and down and up. yet there remains this
great truth, namely that all this minis
try is only an expression Of a higher and
more blessed achievement, which Is
bound to come.

WOMEN'S CLINIC wins
SUCCESS FROM START
First Week of Work Shows Founders
Are Well Repaid for Their
Charity.
RELIEF AFFORDED MANY

That the great good accomplished dur
ing the first week OF its existence is
ample reward for their efforts and sup
port is the belief of the patronesses and
board Of directors of the women's Clin-
ic. 716 Thirteenth Street.
They feel that the clinic opens to the
working women and children of Wash
inGton advantages which they have here
tofore been denied and would be i'm
possible for them TO enjoy were IL not
the belief Of many women OF Washing
ton that 1T is more blessed to give
than to receive"
During the first week of its existence
the clinic has afforded relief TO more
than twenty-five worthy cases. At each
service for children two or three pa
tients have been treated. DIR. Elnora g.
FOlkmar. in charge of the clinic was
loud in her praises OF those who made
the institution a possibility, and Of the
members Of the medical profession who
have volunteered their services. She
feels that the clinic fills a long-wanted
need in the District. and that as soon
as it becomes generally known that it is
in existence its work will be felt in the
city.
Many OF the business houses. realizing
the merits OF the clinic. have contrib
uted toward the furnishing of the home.
Mrs. D. d. Land has donated the fur
nishings for the children's room for in
ternal diseases. Woodward & Lothrop
have given a medicine case. Several OF
the leading florists have sent cut flowers
and plants to the clinic to brighten it
up. The National Electric Supply Com
pany and Muddiman have donated cleo
trio lamps. and Mrs. Borland has given
a library table for the board room.
Those in charge of the clinic are espe-
Cially anxious to establish a dental serv-
ice. but at the present time it will be
impossible TO do so unless the equipment
is donated. The first three patients to
apply at the clinic were in need of dental
work and had to be turned away because
OF lack of facilities.
Announcement was made yesterday
that the formal opening Of the clinic to
the public would be held on December 10.
Mrs. John Hays Hammond. one OF the
leading spirits in the establishment of
the institution. will make a special trip
from New York City. y reception to the
general public will he held during the
afternoon. and at night a reception will
be rendered the medical profession.
The clinic is not a free institution. a
nominal charge is made for all services
rendered. which in no case exceeds 90
cents. II a, patient can afford to pay
more than 30 cents. she is sent to a ply
sician. In cases where the patient can
not afford 10 pay, treatment is free. An
ARRANGEMENT has been made With O'Don-
nell, the druggist. to fill all liquid pre-
scriptions at a nominal fee, not to eN-
ceed 25 cents, regardless of the ingredi
ents in the compound.

Grand Forks. y. OAK, Sept. 2S.-With
the first paper pulp fax straw already
in the hands of paper manufacturers,
the real start in the utilization of fax

ing made.
BY the employment of a new process,
manufacturers expect to make a pulp
from flax straw that will greatly en-
large the supply of raw material for

Industry will mean increased revenue,
as it opens a new market for straw,

Dress Reform in China
(Philadelphia Pressl

China is getting long way ahead in it's progressiVism. The government has issued an edict regulating the dress women men, and when the government of China issues an edict of any kind it has be attended to-

And If the instructions carried out the Chinese will be more correctly dressed generally than average of men in countries where edicts issued.

She need not be discouraged, however; when women get the right to vote they insist upon their right to whatever they please.

It Rests With the People

We will have for the first time in the history of Phoenix a non-partisan city election Party differences have been forgotten intense desire to secure possible a commission form of government. We that there snay never again be talk of party in connection with the af- fairs of the city But, We will give this warning: It will remain with the people insure the govern ment against partisanship and machine politics There is mistaken notion that there is a mys- terious something in a commission form of govern ment that automatically precudes partisan politics and absolutely insures honesty and efficiency
 The people of Des Moines learned a year ago that there is no such efficacy in the mere form; that a charter is not government that when it is not used it is as valueless paper. Des Mones is one of the pioneers in good government It shares with Galveston the distinction of being made model other cities Things ran so smoothly and satisfactorily in Des Mones that the people became careless old ring noticing the growing apathy, began insinuating itself into the government, a member at a tme until after the election year ago fall it was found that the ring in control, engaged the reconstruction of the machine.
 It is easy, under the commission form, to break the machine when the people get awake dis cover it but while the ring lasts there are great possibilities for it's members. Its control though brief, may be made nearly absolute than under the old form of government
 The only advantages, but they are most inn 2ortant ones, of the commission are that it enables the people rule and provides machin- cry for a thoroughly efficient and business like administration. If the people do make use of the power with which they are invested, it doesn't really make much difference what form of govern ment they have The people must rule and not merely possess in abeyance the power rule.
 The people must all times be alert and ready to get together whenever there seems to be any thing wrong with the machinery of government for, We have shown, there is such machinery that will not get out of repair when it is neglected.
 The first thing for the people to do is take hand in the creation of the charter commission A requisite for membership should be former political activity. Men who supposed to have selfish interests to should be excluded. Level headed men who known have a genuine inter est in good government should be chosen. There many of them Phoenix
 A commission composed of such will be a good beginning It will hasten the advent of the government In the absence of selfish interests there will be cooperation among the members for the building of the best charter quickly pos sble
