Owing to the coal shortage caused
by the nation wide strike among coal
miners coal Is being conserved all
over the country. Many industries
have had to suspend operations and
railroads are compelled 20 reduce

local passenger between Spokane and
Marcus, and between Marcus and
Northport, together with the Sunday
train service between Spokane and
Marcus was discontinued Monday.

Our heart goes out in sympathy to
he striking coal miners Of Wilkinson
this state. Themselves running out
of coal Oh account of their refusal to
produce, these poor, poverty stricken
miners are compelled to take their
own private motor cars out in the
woods and gather up fuel, thus con-
Stunning gasoline and wearing out OF
tires, both of which cost money. Such
a shocking hardship upon oppressed
workingmen has never come to our
notice. A contribution should be taken
up to pay for the gasoline and tires
thus consumed and destroyed while
hese poverty stricken miners are
compelled to go to work and dig
around in the woods for the material
to keep themselves warm. What a
cruel world that the downtrodden
miner must be subjected to such hard

ouite a commotion is raging in 81

Quite a commotion is raging in Spo-
kane over a proposition to close up
Sunday show houses, including the
movie theaters. A warm meeting was
held Monday evening at which the
matter was pretty thoroughly discuss
ed between proponents and opponents
of a closing measure. The overwhelm-
ing trend of public opinion in these
days, in the west at least, Is against
Sunday closing of places of amuse-
ment. 1t might be conductive to the
Improvement of the moral condition OF
the country if Sunday was faithfully
observed and there was a more gen.
eral church attendance, but there
seems to be an unusual tendency at bal
among all classes in the present age
and IL an effort was made by ordin-
ance in the large cities to restrict the
individual from following his own
sweet will as to the observance OF
Sunday it is doubtful IL the churches
would be benefited thereby.

The latest word by wire IL that the
coal strike has been declared OF, aftef
conference of the leaders Of the
miners with the president. What con-
cessions the president made IL not
known at the time of writing but 1t
looks as though the long strike which
has entailed vast suffering upon inno-
cent people and the loss of millions
upon millions of dollars in wages, to
say nothing of the loss to industries
crippled by the lack of coal. The strike
at this season of the year was cruel
and brutal act, and demands were
made that were unreasonable. The
miners chose the season in order to
freeze the country into submitting to
their demands. Never has there been
more unpopular strike. In the past
public sympathy has generally been
with the striker, but in this instance
it was wholly against him. Not that
the public supports the coal operators
in their methods of business, but
in this coal strike it was not the OPP
orators and wealthy who suffered but
the middle and poorer classes. The
coal miners strike in this state was a
crime. The head of the union publicly
announced that the miners Of Wash
ington had no fault to find with either
the wage or the conditions under
which they worked, but the strike was
determined upon just because strikes
are fashionable and those miners did
not care tinker's darn who suffered.
There should be some means of arbi-
trating differences between employers
and employees in public utilities and
industries, with drastic provisions
compelling both sides to abide by the
