Leaders Of the coal miners union
are going about with authority in their
pockets to call a nation wide strike,
tie up in coal mines on Nov. and
freeze the public into submission to
their demand for fve-day week ans
90 per cent boost in their wages. The
miners inspired by bolshevik agitators
are dreaming of luxury and affluence
because Of their power over the fuel
production of a nation. They see GER
tain victory and the soviet Of min
ers' union in fun possession of the
mines. To the miners shall belong the
coal hereafter, but they are doomed to
disappointment.
The steel strike Is busted. The rail-
road strike in England ended when It
faced civil war. The people Of the
United States are not going to freeze
without protest. Attempt to stop coal
production for g nation at the begin
ming Of winter will result in soldiers
guarding the mines. volunteers digging
coal and miners becoming hungry and
cold themselves before the great
American public suffers to any serious
degree.
The CHIEF Of the brotherhood Of en-
gineers among railroad workers stated
the case clearly when he remarked
that he realized that the railroads
must run because the people must live.
4 nation wide strike was attempted
once in Sweden. For a few weeks 10
per cent Of the workers were idle but
all other classes stopped the things
they were doing and took the places
of the strikers. Babies in the cities
suffered for milk and volunteers had
10 dig graves while the grave diggers
were out on sympathetic strike but In
six weeks time the strike was busted.

QUIT IT, IT'S SUICIDE.

QUIT IT; IT'S SUICIDE.
While It rs hard to be killed or seri-
ously injured 1t Is also hard TO hurt or
fatally injure any person by accident
The man who should accidentally run
down child or injure or destroy an
old man or woman would carry the
terrible memory Of his unintentional
deed like a scar to his grave. The au-
tomob.list who strives to observe the
rules and regulations Of the traffic
certainly has some rights to some pro-
lection. II common sense will not keep
people from defying death then author
ity should be exercised. The jay
walker earns a fine as fully as the
autoist who cuts corners.
This is Saturday. II 1t Is the usual
Saturday the city VIII be crowded with
people, the streets TANNED with auto
mobiles seeking places where they may
park. Saturday IN Marshalltown Is
only other days of the week accentu-
ated by a larger crowd. Any day in
the week the auto!st must seek for
place to park his car. There are prob
ably more automobiles IN proportion
to the population in and about Mar
shalltown and Marshall county than
anywhere else upon the face or the
round earth. The street traffic. park"
ing facilities and. above all. the mat
ter Of human safety, constitute very
serious and pressing problem in this
city and one which should have much
more attention from authorities and
public than 1t appears to be receiving,
Safety first. While the powers that
are or ought 70 be are seeking or neg
lecting to seek ways and means OF
safety and Of accommodation the pub
lie Itself must pay some attention to
its own safety. A glance up the
crowded streets on busy day or any
other day not so busy will discover
dozens Of persons crossing the streets
wherever and whenever the notion
strikes them to change sides. Old
women totter across between alleys
disregardant Of street corners and
traffic rules, trusting blindly that the
auto driver will be able to dodge them
and that they will reach the other side
OF the street instead Of the hospital or
the morgue. Youth and childhood, old
age and even decreptitude stroll back
and forth in every block. flirting with
death and injury, refusing TO walk TO
corner and the protection OF the
traffic policeman.
Fair Is fair. The public demands
protection Of life and limb. It should
not expect impoesibilities Of laws and
law enforcement and to be safeguard
ed when it deliberately and even i'm
pudently takes It's lives in its own hand
hands in defiance of common sense anC
even OF law. All OF US are under some
responsibility to others and must bea'
part Of the burden Of preserving oui

more than $4,000.

FEW WANT 500 A MONTH JOB.

Nobody much, 1t seems, wants the
Job Of census taker, tho It will prob
ably pay 800 month. Why?
Because nearly everyone capable OF
doing the work Is busy on steady JOB
at as high or greater wage.
But go back to the census Of 1900.
The job paid about 81 a day then.
There was no lack OF applications.
Thousands Of men anxiously sought
and prayerfully hoped they might land
it, men out Of Job to whom $50 or
SIS a month meant everything.
Perhaps a taste Of conditions Of that
time might be Of extraordinary serv-
ice to many Of the younger generation
who have never known the pinch OF
hard times and whose understanding
OF the term Is as vague Al their in
formation regarding Timbuctoo. And
1900 was far from being the worst Of
it. The preceding years succeeding
the short flush period Of '93 remain in
the memories Of middle-aged and ED
erly men like the recoIlections Of q Sc
