THE PRESIDENT

William Allen White in the Amp"r-

dent Of our United States. Nothing
snowy about him, nor Spectacular, but
he is full Of common sense. --e real

had some rights to tner JOBS thai
were greater than the rights Of the
me- men who came in. And he franz
eH up u plan OF settlement th2c DO
vidcd for seniority to prevail. I2e2
he considered the old employees who
did not strike and stuck by the roads,
ana ;nclud2d them il his p.2ns His
3Iaa is opposed by both parties. But
it is none the less good and workable
His hands are free and he is work
ne out The problem before him IN
good common sense. Americans will
DO we'll to stand by him. lie is not
9 labor hater no. q radical. But he
realizes that organized labor is as
much a force Cor economic prugras

TO get the two forces in the transport
tation Industry united. And he will
unite them il he has to take over the
railroads and let the government op-
crate them. When he does the Repuo-
leans will show the country how to
do an efficient job. There will be no
laundering and waste. And we shall
then have a fair test Of government
cpera1ions of the railroads. That i:
ygI,y the railroad owners have fits
when they face the alternative Of Civ
ING the men their seniority or letting
the government run the railroads.
The president is playing a wise
game Of poker with stupend0U5 stakes
But his head is working and he knows
the run of the cards. A foxy lad this
president Of ours.

gun it is believed: 1t was understood
that the min ers had heard signal eX-
blossoms from within the mine. Doc
tors to administer to the miners it
alive are ready and this gives rise to
the fact that the last blow will be
started before the end of the day.
Mine officials are still quiet on the
idea that the explosions heard from
within are signals from the entombed
miners but all of jackson believes the

NEW COAL. field
HAS BEEN OPENED

Stevens Bros, Contractors \of St.
Paul, who have been engaged in
general line of Railroad, Highway and
Irrigation construction throughout the
Northwest for, the past twenty years,
have developed a new Ignite field IN
the vicinity Of Garrison, North Dako-
ia, which promises to become one OF
the largest producing fields in the
state.
Although they only commenced OPP
erations the first Of July they now
have Mine No. l and Mine No. 2 con-
nected with the 500 Line at Garrison
by a three mile spur which cost APP
proximately $50,O00.00. Two tipples
with power plants and permanent
camps will be completed by Sept. 18th
and they will then be in position to
load out so to 60 cars per day. Both
mines are stripping propositions.
The analysis Of their Ignite shows
but to 2 1-2 percent of ash which IS
the lowest ash test on Ignite ever
made by the state University. An
other feature that will be Of interest
to all producers is that not trace OF
sulphur was found in the analysis,
this being the only field in the state
where such conditions are found. ,
| This field will be the second larg-
est producing area in the state this
year and Stevens Bros. are to be con-
gratulateN on their determination to
open up this large scale operation at
this time when the coal shortage will
be such handicap and cause SO much
distress in the Northwest this winter

A strike may be perfectly proper
as a means Of settling dispute when
no one but the employer and employee
is concerned. But it is a different
matter when the industry involved is
q public service and the government
has undertaken to protect the en-
ployes against injustice. The United
States created a Railroad Labor
Board to hear evidence and render de-
cisions on wages, just as it created
an Interstate Commerce Commission
to hear evidence and render decisions
On freight and passenger rates. Even
though they lose, and have lost, large
sums of money by reason OF the rate
decisions, the railroads have been COM
Dellcd to abide by the judgment Of
the Commission. They must keep on
rendering service even if they do so
at loss. The individual stakeholder
who does not like to retain his inter-
est in a road that does not pay eX-
pcnscs, can sell out, but the road as
whole must keep on rendering ser
vice until the rates can be further ad-
iusted after further hearing. The
same principle ought to apply to
workers on the roads. The Railroad
Labor Board did what it thought right
and Just in fixing compensation, and.
though the individual worker had j
right to quit if he wanted to the work,
u.s a. Il body had no moral right tC
quit by concerted action in order tc
tie I'D transportation. Undoubtedly
thew have the legal right to strike, sc
lcng as they do so peaccably, but pub
, lie opinion will never uphold them IN
taking such concerted action as would
interrupt interstate commerce. Inc
railroads are Cuasi-pubiic institutions
upon which the public depends not
only for comfort and convenience, but
for life itself. To all intent6 and pur-
poses ana effects, a general strike
ara;nst the railroads after a decision
by the Railroad Labor Board is de-
lianc2 of the governmental defiance
which the people will not tolerate
Railroad workers must recognize tn
= difference between 4 controversy be
tween individuals where there has
been no impartial adjudication and :

been determined by a lawfully consti.

The non-partisan league is threat
ening Governor Nestos with opposit-
ion in the fall election if he does not
come out in support Of Lynn J. t'raz-
Ter for United States Senator. We do
not believe that this action will make
any difference with Governor Nestos'
attitude toward the recalled governor.
Nestos has shown himself to be level
headed and to be man who has the
best interests of the state at heart.
He, and every other thinking man who
has kept posted on North Dakota al
fairs, feels that Frazier would be
worse than useless to the state in the
senatorial chair at Washington and
for that reason has consistently with
held his support from the league can
didate. Any threat to oppose him in
the fall election will only serge to in
crease his efforts against the league
and will be more than useless from
the league view point. Nestos made a
strong run in the primary election
and political observers in the state
predict larger majority in the fall
election. Any candidate that the lea
que could put up would run poor
second and should as Governor Mes

state affairs and has started the state

that VIM. LANCER might receive the
league endorsement is one of the most
encouraging statements seen in press
reports for some time, from the view
point of Nestos, as LANCER could not
possibly poll more than small per-
centage of the league votes. He has
been branded traitor too long by the
league for him to be able to command
;.,,ly support or respect from the lea
cue followers and it is cartain that he

terests, but until this country can elect
enough men to congress in both
branches to right these wrongs, you
won't get very far. You cannot get
very far electing cartoonists to con-
gress, or electihg men like Townley,
Frazier, and so on, because they can
not fill the bill-they wrecked the
state and in congress they would make
as much of a showing as mustard
seed does rolling around in a big wash
boiler-and just about as much noise
But there are good farmer business
men in this state who could be sent to
congress and from other states, who
could do something if enough Of them
were sent. Aye, but that's the rub.
We are pleased that "Antoninus" liked
our headlines last fall. We liked them,
too. Perhaps never in newspaper
work have such potent and far-reach-

paper. But they expressed world

November election we shall be able to
furnish this great hidden apostle Of
the "peepul" with some more just as
pungent. In the meantime, old top,
let us hear from you again, under
your own signature, because tax

bated breath the name of this great
advocate Of the rights Of the people

Down on the Casa Crande.

D. D. Smith returned the first of the week from a few weeks visit in the Casa Grande Valley. He says that the country there 1s simply wonderful. Grape planting was the main occupat- ion at the time he was in the valley. What a contrast be- tween the green fields of that valley and the snow covered hills of Coconino- He marvel Jed to see the way wheat and hay grew. He says that farm CTS would turn their cattle on a field of wheat until it was grazed close. Then they would remove the stock and turn on the water. In two weeks time the wheat would begin to stool out. Again the cattle would be turned on and the process repeated over and over. D. D. has a farm in that valley and he says it looks good Io him.

WILLIAMS HIGH SCHOOL
 RANKS WITH THE BEST

Prof. T. H. Cureton is in
 receipt of a telegram from the North Central High School As
 sociation which reads as fol-
 lows:
 Williams High School Ac-
 credited by North Central As sociation. Congratulations" The professor IS greatly eIat- ed over this bit of news and he has good reason to be. A graduate from the Williams High School may now enter any college or University in the six teen states covered by the North Central Association with out being required to take an examination. A Williams graduate will receive as high ranking as a graduate from Chicago, Kansas City Phoenix or any other High School in the North Central Group. That certainly speaks well for a town of this size. Williams resi- dents may well be proud of the work being done in our schools.
 It will be interesting to note also, that an exchange is ar ranged with the Southern and Eastern Associations whereby high school graduates from the l states covered by the North | Central Association may get l similar ranking in any eastern or southern state.
 There is a great deal of satis- faction in knowing that our children are getting schooling that ranks right up with the best that is to secured in large .itieS.

Last Monday evening the K. of P. met at the regular hour. There was 2 good attendance considering the night being little snowy under foot. There were less than 27 members present at the meeting. We had a nice meeting and enter tainment.
 Bro. Nixon has been away for several meetings and gave us an interesting talk on his visits to other lodges.
 Bro. Frank Udine had some good things to say of the lodge which all the brothers present, will remember for a long time.
 Bro. Mitchell had an appetiz- ing story to tell. All at once Bro. Udine told the boys he had a treat waiting for their deli cate appetites. He presented us with an oyster feed after which we all went home feeling fine.
 Hope all good K. ofP.s will be out next meeting night and see what happens.
