Too Much Talk.

There has been so much talk on
the negotiations with Germany over
the Lusitania case that it has got on
the nerves Of most Americans. It
has been something awful. We have
almost gotten to the point where
we'd like to got out and shoulder a
musket and shoot at something or
somebody just to relieve the tension.
If the country is not soon relieved
something is bound to happen. Some
bodyll make fool blunder, and zip!
bang! Something will go off, and
then we'll have the real fireworks.

The Anthracite Workers.

The advertising campaign recently
started in the large cities by the
anthracite coal operators is intended
to give the facts of the case they
have against the coal miners. Of
course this is only one side of the
case. Why the miners have proposed
another strike is another matter.
The operators make good show
ing for themselves, and claim the
miners want too much. This may be
true. But do the miners really want

The only way for the President
to win his fight is to hustle now. If
he wait till the flush of his popular

would no doubt win.

If coal goes up fifty cents ton be-
cause the miners have raised the
price of digging only fifteen or
twenty cents per ton, the strike
would appear to be profitable in
vestment for the operators. That is
generally what the public gets. The
operators never fail to capitalize a
strike into what they can get out of
it, and the consumer pays the bill.

Association Formed

ated as the Lennon Improve
ncnt Co. has applied for the two
licenses to conduct saloons in the
:ity and it begins to look as if
4 lively scrap is to be staged as
o who shall dispense the booze.
While the Herald has no voice
n either organization, we be
ieve that both should lay their
plans before the citizens of the
city and let them decide which
plan is most suited to the major
ity.
While treat ng on the subject,
the Herald would also suggest
that the saloon be placed some
place besides on the chief cor
ner of the city. While the sa
loon has been conducted in ar
orderly manner, there is always
an element of rough necks' that
hang around on the outside o.
the place and fill the air witt

ing through a sea of vulgar ant

ranch.
After two weeks of inspection.
he finally found what he wanted

four registe ed stations and two
registered Purcheron mares.
Twoof the stations are imported
and the other two are just two
year olds The mares are both
young. These horses are among
the finest of the breed and are
the best stock ever brought into
this section. MIR. Schnell is to
be commended on his move in
securing this good stock. as i,
will naturally mean the grade OF
stock throughout the entire coun
