GETTING STARTED

It's q pretty good sign when everybody seems to have accepted
the theory that good old -fashioned work is the only cure for the
after-war evils that everyone says this country is suffering from.
The alarm clock has made its balyboo and it is time to wake up
and hit the ball. Jobs are not so plentiful just now, but what they
are worth hanging on to, and employers are rapidly realizing that
when a job is desirable, efficiency is not a hard matter to enforce.
Right after the close of the war, everybody had an idea that
America was going to do big things, With a great merchant marine
on hand, we were all prepared to step out and raise h@with7
foreign trade=There was nothing to it-we were going to show
EN-. But the merchant marine has fiyyered along with the idea
that all our statesmen had to do was to land on foreign soil with
three cheers for the red, white and blue, and take orders for Yam
ke goods-with a sort of get in line now, don't push and we'll
take your orders in turn" effect. But it didn't happen at all. The
blamed foreigners didn't want Yankee goods or else they haven
got the money or credit to buy with They don't apparently want
even the raw material that we have to sell, copper, steel, cotton,
wool, beef or wheat. The whole thing looks to us as though we
have got to do the buying for awhile in order to give the other fell
have to sell. So long as the rest of the world is out of the game
as buyers, we have got to sell to each other. This can be done if
the price, is made attractive enough. The cheapness of production
depends upon the efficiency of the producer, and there is nothing
like genuine effort on the part of the worker to create efficiency.
For the past year, the remedies for afflicted America ap-
peared to be limited in number and variety only by the population.
The outstanding fact Is there is no remedy but time, mixed with
a fair amount of sanity.When the law-makers doped up the IN
come tax with a view to making the warprofiteer come across,
everybody gave three rousing cheers, but it don't work at all. The
warprofiteer turned his loot promptly into non-taxable securities
and is sitting tight, and many of the big men of industry have
been compelled to follow their example, and as a result millions of
producers are out of a job. The result was a general beginning at
the bottom again. The evidence is that a start has been made by
the farmer at least, for he was the first to hit the bottom and nat
urafy there was no direction IN which to go except up. For the
next few years farming will be the best business in the country.
for there will be no lockouts or waIkouts on the farm. 1t is a lob
for every day in the year, and the world has just got to eat.

YES, WE REMEMBER

Over half a million railroad workers have been ordered to mi
tiate a strike on October 80, while other unions totaling 100000
members of allied occupations are preparing to follow suit. 1t is
apparently the aim of the leaders to make this the greatest strike
y of history, and if the whole thing is not a bluff, as some are in
clned to think, they will probably have a fair amount of success
in their aims. The strike order is the result of a vote of the en-
L tire membership of the unions in protest at the wage cut author
lied by the labor board, and cannot be laid to an arbitrary order of
the brotherhood leaders.
With all due admiration for those individuals in the railroad
service, who periodically served their country in time of trouble,
and there were many of them, we have not forgotten that the rail-
road worker was exempt from service. Also we have not forgot
ten that the railroad men took advantage of the situation and
dubbed a harrassed congress into acceding to their demands for
the passage of the Adamson law, tactics that were actually little
less than treason. And while workers and producers in all other
lines of industry have been compelled to accept the inevitable in a
return to normally, the railroad men consider themselves intrench-
ed in an impregnable position, as is evident by their present atti-
tude, which apparently makes no appeal for public sympathy.
1t is just as well, perhaps, that they do not ask for public sup
port, for they will not get it. For years now, the railroad worker
has taken the cream of high wages, which the public has had to
strke-if it happens, but they are not under compulsion to sanc5l
ton it or to offer Sympathy or moral support.
There has sprung up in recent months a growing conviction
that there is much justice in the American plan" ih Unemployment
sof labor. In many cities of the United States it is already in force
and meeting with success. In the neighborng city of Great Falls,
non-union laborers are working side by side with union men in APP
parent amty and it only requires the defeat of nation wide strike
of a powerful Hhfehized body to put the American plan Oh a SeidH
foundation. The selfishness and greed of organized labor has
been responsible for many of its mistakes in the past, and of late
these have been so prominent, coupled with bad leadership, that
even the politicians are beginning to pay little heed to their unreal
sonable demands. l.
The right to strike and the right to accept work are not del
batable questions under the constitution of the United States. The
moral support of any labor controversy is based on a selfish view
by the public, the same as it is actuated by the selfish views of the
parties in controversy. There is nothing in the proposed railroad
strike that appeals to the sympathy of the public on either side of
the question. The public nowadays has so many troubles of its
own that it has no time to waste upon the difficulties of corpora
and suffering of innocent citizens win surely meet with little APP
probation.

FUTURE OF SILVER PRICE

With the price of foreign silver touching the high mark of the
year within the last week there is much announcement to many
of the mining districts of Montana. This is an indication that the
future of the silver market is assured. There is more than a possi-
biity that the Pittman act will never be repealed, or at least not
for many years.
The public has been shown that the Pittman act does simple
justice to the miner at not a single penny's expense to taxpavers
Senator Pittman said he believed the fund established under
the Pittman act would be perpetual inasmuch as before the entire
amount of white metal sold to Great Britain during the war had
been purchased, the price of foreign silver would exceed the set
price OF SlOO per ounce. "Assoon as this is the case" the sena-
tor continued, "the purchase of United States silver by the govern
ment would automatically cease and domestic stocks of metal be
diverted to Europe and the Orient. Foreign demand with domes-
tic consumption would be ample to insure the existence of the fund
created by the Pittman act for many years as soon as conditions
in Europe return to normal"

alleged embezzlement. today held the
warrant should be served on Small,
but that the states chief executive
should be permitted to make appear
ance at his convenience within reas-

The court developed its opinion as
follows: That there is no such thing
in Illinois as the divine right of kings,
that a king had no counterpart in the
state; that it is beyond the COVER
nor's power to call state troops to
shield him from arrest, and that the
governor, despite his position, is sub
iect to arrest and prosecution for
his acts as state treasurer. Notifca-
tion of Governor Small by telephone
