HE demands OF The United Mine Workers which
4 should properly be the issue OF the great CON
test now raging instead Of the echncaity as TO Whether
the war is over the most drastic ana isr-resoue
ever formulated by any national union.
Many Of the demands constitute uniustinabe attempts
10 restrict production and would increase the chaos now
existing in this wasteful Of all American Industries
in many respects they represent reversal OF the
previously accepted policies Of the United Mine Workers
ana would completely adopted, lessen ndustra s'a-
biiiv and respect for contracts.
There is little doubt that IL the miners union should
insist upon their adoption rejection as whole their
attitude would be repudated not only by conservative
union leaders but by great majority Of organized
workers.
Bu, like nearly all labor demands they did not and
do not constitute an ulumatum and are subject to com
promise and negotiation. They may be said to cons-
tue nothing than goals which the miners have
established for ultimate attainment
As matters now stand there is way Of knowing
whether the miners insist only upon an adjustment OF
their legitimate grievances, are determined upon de
mandng the last drop Of blood and attempting to bring
about an industrial revolution All we know is that there
has been no effective attempt at negotiating settlement
and that the government has declared the strike Illegal
on the ground that the war is not over
we ought TO have a showdown. Negotiations between
the miners and operators with the government partic-
mating for the protection Of the public interest should
therefore be opened and carried at least to the point OF
demonstrating whether the miners seeking adjustment
Of genuine grievances and the orderly improvement o
working conditions or ready to hamstring the Goa
and dependent industries and make the public suffer fol
ulteror selfish purposes.
The government need not back down from its position
that the war is not over but may il did last 0cobe

A Message TO The Nation
rrom the NeM York sun. }

For any OF them, in the colors OF
Foster or in the cOlOrs OF Gompers,
daring TO defy Government authority
there will come sorry day II they do
not heed this message OF Mr.. Wilson and
AN the national will and power behind
such message.
For Woodrow Wilson definitely and
finally puts this fundamental issue be
fore the nation as Calvin Coolidge put
IL before the State Of Massachusetts.
The people Of the United states want
Ia meet that issue for their nation as
tbe people Of Massachusetts, met II for
their state They will settle II as Massa-
cbusetts settled 1t. They will show self
,npolnted autocracy whether II can lay
do,vn the terms and conditions on
which it will obey court orders. Ihey
Nfl show organized LABOR, as they viii
show organized capital, who is behind
ihe law and who is behind the Govern
ment who Is the law and who Is the
Governmental the American people
Whenever anybody, whether lis
name is Foster or GOmpers, wants a
nght to the finish on that fundamentai
issue he Will have it in the unlteu
states as he had it in Massachusetts
fWhat he got in Massachusetts, he VIII
yet in the United states.
This is why, afler the Coolidge YER
diet for Massachusetts, and the VIII
son message for the nation, the Amer
lean people for the first time III
months drew a long, full breath, OF
confidence ind security. Business anc
industry again feel that under iheiI
feet is solid foundation. not quick
sands. The man who works. The mar
who make sacrifices for his family, Tn
man who saves against te hazards OF
the future and the needs of old age

side opinion has been for material
changes instead Of against them. There
* vastly more opposition today 10 the
original draft OF the treaty Than there
was last July, when President Wilson
transmitted i. TO The senate.
The true friends n the treaty have
worked to make it acceptable, flrsi Of
ali. TO a majority. A majority cannot
raiify, yet IT can control the whole
process of ratification. IT can dictate
the form which the treaty takes ana
which the ratification resolution takes
The senate must act on the instrument
as the majority has shaped it. It was
Mr.. IltchcoGk's primary duty. II he
wanted 10 help ratification along, TO
contribute 10 the creation Of majority
group which would assume control or
the ratification machinery. ft was well
within his power TO do this. But he
allowed the opportunity t0 slip. Mr..
Lodge has done what the Administra
tion's spokesman failed to do. He has
organized working majority in favor
OF ratification with reservations. VIII
Mr.. Hitchcock Join at the last minute
i'm helping TO put through the treaty in
the only form in which it can be adopt
ed? or will he sulk and vote with the
Borah-Reed group 10 XIII the treaty?
The position of the Administration
Senator'S Is painful. But Mr.. Hitchcock
is himself the author of their predica-
ment. The only option left to him is
10 accept the majority reservations or
to reject a three-quarters loaf in favor
/ of no bread at all.

SOUTH-An all day meeting of the
Farm Bureau, beginning at 1890, will
be held at the Grange hall. Readfield,
on Wednesday. Oct. 20. A full at
tendance of members. as well as all
interested, is desired. 1t is the plan
to make this meeting one of the most
helpful of the year. Miss Helen Ly-
man will be present to discuss and
advise the remodeling of clothing
and construction of patterns as a
part of the program. Other home"
topics will be presented. Readfield
already has a good membership and
there seems to be no reason why
there should not be permanent and
enthusiastic club here. With so able
and progressive an assistant to adj
wise as Miss Lyman it must be the
fault of the members if the Farm
Bureau at Readfield is not a success.
Ladies will please bring a basket
lunch.
