MEMBER OF ASSOCIATED PRESS
HAPPY NEW YEAR.

The Star Mirror wishes its many
friends and patrons a Happy New
Year. The year just beginning ought
to be an important one for Moscow and
the Inland Empire. The Star-Mirror
hRs made New Years resolution,
which is simply a renewal of the res
olution made when the present man
agement took charge, that it will labor
increasingly during the coming year
to do everything in its power for the
upbuilding of Moscow, of the business
interests, the University of Idaho, of
Latah county and the Inland Empire
The paper points with pride to its
record during the present administra-
ton and defies any one to point to a
single instance in which it has taken
any part in any movement that was
not for the betterment of general con-
ditions. 1t has thrown no rocks" at
any person, organization, community,
church, lodge or industry. 1t has
tried to help everyone of these. 1t has
taken no part in any personal or petty
quarrels and it has never been asked
to assist in any movement for the
tetterment of conditions or for boost
ing" any legitimate enterprise, and re-
fused the request. 1t has helped when
called upon to help and has helped
when no call for help had been made. |
The Star-Mirror is your paper. 1t
ID what you help to make it and you
have helped it in more ways than can
be told in brief space. Your help
has been appreciated and we ask |
its continuance. We believe the work
done by the paper has been apprecia-
tad by the people of Moscow and vi
cinity and that it's refusal to engage |
IN any quarrels or anything that |
would serve to divide, rather than
unite the people, meets almost unan-
isaDus endorsement of the people of
Moscow and vicinity. May the year
1920 see us all working together more
tremendously than ever before.

THE STEEL STRIKE ENDED.

The great steel strike is called OFT py the
union leaders that called it last September. 1t
lasted about five months officially, but it was
really over in about sixty days after it started,
most of the strikers returned to work by that
time so far as the company was willing to take
them back There was always a wide variation
in the figures given out by the strike committee
and the company as to the number OF men VINO
went out on the strike The strike committee
claimed all the time and reiterate the claim now
when admitting defeat that 365,0OO out OF the
100000 employees in the steeel companies struck
The companies denied any such proportion OF
strikers. The figures are only of passing inter-
est just now The fact is that the steel trust
and other smaller companies affected kept their
plants going with non-unon men and gradually
gained in their output until they were running
at about normal rate of production on nom
union basis. The effect Of the calling off of the
strike will therefore be negligible so far as the
strikers are concerned. Some of them may go
back to work on the old open shop basis, but 1t
is probable that most of them who have staid
out until this time will have to look for another
job. In the present state Of industry and labor
scarcity that will probably not be hard for them
to find.
This strike was rather a peculiar one by rea-
son of the fact that it was acknowledged by
many of the strikers that the wages paid them
were satisfactory, and while more or less was
said about dissatisfaction with long hours of
labor, yet the public got the impression that
their real grievance was the open shop policy
and the refusal of the steel magnates to recog-
nize the union. The strike was also much pre-
JUDGED in the public mind by the record of some
Of the strike leaders, and the evidence adduced
that syndicatst labor agitators had an active
part in it. with the object of revolution rather
than improvement in the condition of the en-
ployes. At least the senate Investigating COM
mttee came to that conclusion. The failure of
the coal strike also had some bearing on the ques-
ton as it removed the last hope of the strikers
who had already lost out in the contest when the
coal strike ended

THE WEATHER PROPHETS.

Winter started in early in Montana this year
and violently Instead of the long Indian sum-
mer that lasts up to Christmas which IS typical
of the usual Montana weather we had extremely
cold weather in November and very heavy snow
storms That was hard on the stockman for 1t
meant commencing feeding Of hay and grain
long before they expected. When this took place
the weather prophets were pretty unanimous IN
the opinion that we were going to have long
hard winter. Then the weather became mild.
It continued mild and sunshiny through Decem-
Der and up to the present date in January. Dur
ing that five or six weeks we have had chlnooks
that melted good deal of snow and lett the hull
sides bare. It was a godsend to most OF us tor
fuel was scarce with many and it helped out the
haystacks and feed grain good deal. Now we
notice the weather prophets are changing their
tune and predicting an early spring.
We have no faith in their predictions, what
ever they may be. We do not think that science
or second sight either can tell anything about
the weather more than few days in advance.
There is plenty of time for severe winter wealth
er yet and still we may not get it. We have
seen farmrs plowing and seeding gram In Janu-
ary in this state and we have seen winter wealth
er linger on through April. But from now on
the sun gets stronger, and of course every week
we have of good weather diminishes the chance
of long continued cold weather.
We hope Of course for an early spring this
year. The heavy fall Of moisture we have had
guarantees plenty of spring moisture IN the
ground and if we have early heat applied to the
moist ground and good growing conditions it
means good hay crop at least and often times
the maturing of the grain crops before the heat
ed days Of the summer have chance to blast it
in the milk.
But the weather is in the lap Of the gods The
fact that we need a good crop year badly after
three poor crop years, and the law of chances,
makes us sanguine that we will have good year
in 1920 in this state. But as we have said be-
fore, it is all in the lap of the gods. All we can
do is to work hard and hope for the best. We
can also say that 50 far our winter weather has
not been so bad. 1t might have been worse.
