Before the Tuesday proceedings in
the Senate coal hearing were known
we wrote this declaration which was
printed in our columns yesterday !:
THE coal industry cannot do better
thing for itself than to sit down with
the Senate committee and lay all its
cards on the table"
After the dunfounding testimony OF
GEORGE III. CUSHING, managing direc-
tor Of the Wholesale Coal Dealers
Association, as to how prices were
piled upon the consuming public, layer

Queer or distributor that does not now

coal business continued as a purely
private enterprise. The coal operator
or distributor that does not now see
that the American public is not going
TO stand any more Of the fragrant
abuse Of which it has been the victim
Is stone blind.
lie SlSL VI OIbhlNG AtNCAa-
tons is that in this unmitigated coal
manipulation the public's pocket was
the object Of every hungry claw that
could get at it. The consumer was In
the strange hold OF greed Coal, as
shown in one case. worth $3.50 at the
mines was selling for $14.50 before it
left the mines.
where did these enormous profits
gof' asked Senator KENYON.
"They went everywhere" replied
Mr.. CUSHING.
They went everywhere because the
consuming public was being plucked
far and wide and TO the limit, not
merely by coal operators but by rail
road officials, by Government officers
and by outsiders who could thrust
themselves into the grab circle
Somebody in the Government ser
vice had advance information Of a
forthcoming priority order which
would shut OFT coal shipments from
certain territory. He or his agent
rushed in there and bought up all the
coal he could lay his hands on and
then waited for the buyers panic to
clean up his profteering harvest.
Somebody else commissioned to buy
Cor railroad bought the coal FIRST for
himself and then resold il to the rail
road. Maybe he resold it to somebody
n between, bought 1t back again and
"a that basis then made a bargain
'yith the railroad.
Still another man bought coal ON n

Drofteer he met, who In turn would

Jumped into the game. To add TO the
gayety Of the profiteers heavy pur-
chasers employed half dozen or more
different representatives to obtain
necessary supplies, and these various
representatives Of the same buyer bid
one another up to the sky.
Because OF these and similar per.
formances the coal industry now has
more to gain BY laying all its cards

CHAPTER u.

A young nalf-breed Digger woman
who had suffered the loss Of the latest
Of her numerous progeny two days
prior to Mrs. Cardigan's death, was
installed In the house As nurse to John
Cardigan's son, whom he called Bryce,
the family meme of his mothers peo-
pie. A Mrs. Tully, widow of Cardi-
CAMS first engineer In the mill. was
engaged as housekeeper and. cook and
with his domestic establishment re-
organized along these simple lines,
John, Cardigan turned with added
eagerness to his business affairs, hop
ing between them and his boy to
salvage as much as possible from
what seemed to him, In the 6rst pangs
Of his loneliness and desolation, the
wreckage Of his life.
While Bryce was in swaddling
clothes he was known only to those
females Of Sequoia to whom his half
breed foster mother proudly exhibited
him when taking him abroad for an
airing in his perambulator. With his
advent into rompers, however. and the
assumption Of his American preroga-
tive Of free speech, his father develop
ed the habit of bringing the child
down to the mill Office, to which he
added q playroom that connected with
his private Office. Hence, prior to his
second birthday, Bryce OWNED that
his father was closer to him than
motherly Mrs. Tully or the half-breed
girl. Moreover, his father took him on
wonderful journeys which no other
member of the household had even
suggested.
OF all their adventures together.
however, those which occurred on their
frequent excursions up to the Valley
Of the Giants impressed themselves
imperishably upon Bryce's memory.
How well he remembered their hrst
trip. when, seated astride his fathers
shoulders with his sturdy little legs
around Cardigan's neck and his chubby
little hands clasping the old mans
ears, they had gone up the abandon
ed skid-road and into the semi-dark-
ness Of the forest, terminating sud-
denly In q shower Of sunshine thH
fell in an open space whore a boy
could roll and play and never GET
dirty. Bryce looked forward with
eagerness to those frequent trips with
his father ito the place where Mother
dear went to heaven" ...#
When Bryce was six years old, bis
father sent him to the public school
IN Seouoia with the children OF his
loeRers and mill-hands, thus laying
the foundation for democratic edu-
cation all too infrequent with the sons
Of men rated a. milllonaires. Bryce's
boyhood was much the same as that
q other lads In Sequoia. save that IN
the matter of toys and later guns
nshing-rods. dogs and ponies he was
source Of envy to his fellows. After
his tenth year his father placed MIN
On the mill payroll. and on payday
