Harry Phillips, who has been ably conducting

bought out his competitor, The Free Press, and has
consolidated the subscription list with his own.
The move is wise the part of the owners
of both publications, there is not room for two
papers in town the size of Mahnomen. One paper
needs all the business that the town produce to

ANTHRACITE REEks WITH GRAFT

ANTHRACITE REEKS WITH GRAFT
The truth about anthracite is gradually coming
h the surface Operators have set out half-heart-
edly to reduce wages, asserting that miners are
over-pad. And the miners have enthusiastically
offered to prove that profits inflated, cost state
ments inexact, deceptive, and in many cases un-
truthful; that payrolls are padded with relatives
of the owners and with politicians; and that the
anthracite fields of Pennsylvania are still reekng
with petty graft. y, !
average ton Of anthracite has increased tremeny
dousv. and Enthusiastically there is some basis for
the statement. But IT, as they say the cost OF pro-
ducing the average ton Of coal is $3.50, they should
be- able to prove it. the labor cost is 1892, they
should have proof of that, too. But, for reasons
best known to themselves, operators always have
resisted federal and other attempts to get at the
real cost Of anthracite. Through their propa-
gandists they are trying to create the impression
that profits are low and that the mine price is based
on competition rather than on the old dictum Of
.all the traffic will bear" They would like the
public to consider operators as q single group,
and not as a part of a vast profit-taking organza-
ton, including the coal sales companies and the
railroads. Propaganda, however; cannot conceal
all the facts. ~ 80
Operators are fond Of statistics tending to show
the high wages earned by some Of the contract
miners, running up in many cases to SIS week.
But for every such case, it is commended BY the
union there is set-off in the person OF miner
who has~run into abnormal conditions; such az
usually hard coal, change in the pitch OF the
vein, a thin vein, one of many other obstacles
to large earnings. Hundreds of such cases are on
file before the Anthracite Board Of Cancellation,
some of them showing large groups Of contract
miners who cannot earn 81 day under the con
ditions' they are facing. -, i L
If hard coal is to be brought within the reach
of its regular users, something must be done TO
eliminate some of the middlemen and to get at
the real basis of produe ton costs. Only by show
down can the operators justify prices at the mines
more than double the pre-war rates:-Wm. A. Nc

recent Arms Conference. Here for the flrst
time did Nations admit the public to con-
ferences of Diplomacy. 1t the conference
had ACCOMPLISHED nothing else, it would nave
warranted the call. Now the public wants TO
know what its representatives are doing
and what they are planning to do. They are
recognized leaders only in so far as they take
their constituents into confidence. Politicians
of the old school, fortunately fast dying QUIT
are reluctant They know the result and
are trying desperately to continue their
existence as long as possible.
In Delaware we are approaching cam
paign which effects very seriously the civic
future of the State. There have been no
statements, no plans, no official announce
ments, given to the public. Yet conferences
are being held, plans perfected, and even
delegates to the State Convention being con-
sidered. These are all secret, and outside of
a few back-door leaks the public knows moth
ing. The old policy of getting things lined
up' and putting the screws on Independent
thinking. and then "spring it," is still in
vogue Those responsible reckon i'll with this
after-the-war citizenship. It is different.
Gag-rue politics in convention is a relic of
past shame and disgraces. The Steam Roller
lost its engineer when Penrose left the
throttle In its stead there is developing
growing independence that needs to be reck-
oned with Personal ambition without due
regard for party wishes and State welfare
cannot longer succeed. The policy now being
pursued is not only dangerous but will be so
resented as to tend toward failure Both for
success and service. let us urge our leaders
to consult and take into confidence the whole
citizenship.
Newark post., 1922-03-29
Let's Get acquainted

How little is Newark acquainted was an
observation made at the Thursday night
meeting Of citizens. There seems to be
plenty of enthusiasm here but everyone is so
backward" was heard several times. And it
was and is true-we are not acquainted.
Even the business men sat quietly by but
with eve alert and seemingly bit suspicious
that something might be sprung.
Our business men, manufacturers, pro-
feSSiOnals are strangers to one another. All
with good and worthy motives but bit anX-
ious, even bordering on suspicion Of the
other fellow. All this is probably because we
do not know him.
1t was suggested the other evening that
dinner be held with some entertainment,
some man talk, and some straight-out eX-
change of views. This would mix us up and
create a leveling that would generate con-
fdence. 1t is good idea. Let the various
interests sit down at the banquet table and
forget the personal and business superiorities
that probably do not exist, after all. 1t may
be that we are taking ourselves too seriously
"a dangerous attitude always. If so, din
ner with cross fire fun and repartee would do
us lots of good. Every man could boost his
own particular interest or hobby. And if he
can prove his case to the interest of the COM
munity, we will give him hearing and
support.
