Since the hunting season came in
on November 10th there have been,
apparently, more hunters than game,
for one may see sportsmen go out al
most every hour; comparatively few
Of the number come in with anything
to show for their days work, or sport,
whichever one may desire to call it.
Next Thursday being Thanksgiv-

take that day off, hence the paper will
be printed and mailed on Wednesday
instead of the regular publication day
which is Thursday. Advertisers and
correspondents will kindly remember
this and make an effort to get their
copy for advertisements and local let
ters in one day earlier than usual.
With the organization of a healthy
Chamber of Commerce in Oakland an
established fact, and with virile bus
mess men at the head of a system
attic union of individuals whose officers
and members will work together for a
common end, the town should take a
forward step, and will, there is no
possibility of doubt if the citizens
get behind the movement and give it
the loyal support it deserves.

DEALING WITH cHnD LABOR.

Because the supreme court has held The child labor Jaw to be uncons.itu- honai does not mean that efforts are gc<d Ing to be abandoned to bring about a reduction of child labor. or to, end con- Etions which are intolerable. It simply neans that they must be done in other1 rays. s" Unfortunately there are those who do bot join with Secretary Hoover when be declares child labor IS a "blight snI ks measure more deplorable than war. 'S Tor q there was a general admission of hat and q determination to overcome it he handling of the problem by the ree, fpective states would be adequate. 10 ls the heiief Of the secretary of comsi ncrce that every effort should be made To get the states to shoulder their reS FDonsibliitfes in this direction for the benefit it would be to the children toe Ray and the children of tomorrow, ag well as the overcoming of the injustice ihat is now done to industry in states which have child labor laws that arS adequate by those which have little or ho restrictions at all.
 Just how much can be accomplished by the renewed efforts to get the states
  Do deal with the problem is a question: it has been underway for a long time rith only too slow progress. The vic6 tory over the federal child labor law hay be sufficient reinforcement for views held in child labor states to block any further effort for reforms. That will quickly manifest itself in connection with any campaigns that are under izken-
 It is a possibility that may well be feckoned with. # in fact there isn't good reason Go anticipate it. That will leave Inc alternative of dealing with the evil Through a constitutional amendment, uch as Is favored by the chairman of Inc national child labor committee. The dea of having the states deal with such problems Is preferable, but when they arc SO in6izposed to end such condi- Eons there can be no serious objection to federal action that viii put the entire country on the same basis.

rHE FtGHr N .IREIAND.

Over in the Irish Free State the lead-l CTS are. gconvinced of the necessity of Ks 'ing 1t established whether they aye in control or whether they are subject to the will and outrages of the minor iity.
 = Iu.rhe reeent election it was realized that ther sentiment Of the people would be disclosed and that there would be shown what was desired. The outcome at the polls was, only what was anticl- pated. It was shown that the. treaty which. provided fer the IrfSh Free State was strongly endorsed, that the people wanted peace and 1t became apparent be- fore. assc we'll .asf since the warning that was given from London, that it was time ito assume the responsibilities of govarnmentF and end. the disorders. | Setting cut under such a policy the Free Staters have made their initial ef- fort in>~Bubfin. where something more than rrneelSs igfting is underway. It is appreciated that it is no time for, half With the backing of the peo- pie 1t is setting out to do their will and bring about paciicatfon as well as re- espect, for the established authority. Much .of, course depends. upon the suc- ,qess.. attained If the opponents of the
 government who are -maRifestly a mi nority can defy the forces of tho gov -ernment 1t will display a weakness which thes Free, Staters cannot afford to pern1itss It is therefore with, the idea of
 preventing anything of the kind that ,theY-.=s are making the desperate move

TIE RIGHT MOVE.

l. Without any question President Hard ing is. pursuing the right course in call- ,sng together the heads of the operators
 and sn1iners'r organization for the pur- spose .rof s, determining methods by which .negotiations for the settlement of the coal strike both in he anthracite and Pituninous fields, can be started.
 P This indicates that the government recognizes that the present state of af- Hairs cannot be allowed to continue with out working unjust hardships upon the
 country There appears to be no pros -pect. under present conditions of an ear
 ly understanding being reached between hthe miners and the operators, and while \ there continues to be an increase in the production of soft coal it Is far belcw normal while very little if any hard coal lis being mined The entire situation is
 thus working to the point where the
 country can anticipate shortage in fuel
 if something is not done to end 1t.
 But for the fact that the public Is sdeeply concerned, because of fuel re- suuirements. .athe strike might be allowed
 to continue till losses to those directly Einvolved got to be such that they would sreach an adjustment The coal indus try, however, involves a commodity up
 on which the public depends and it is in
 the interest of the public that the presi-
 dent has acted
 In previous disputes of this kind t lshas been necessary for the government
 to take hand Conditions differ now Iafrons what they were under previous strikes but there is unquestionably an l.infuence or. a pressure that can be
 brought to bear that will meet the sit
 uatfon.
 Just what the plan of the president is
 will not be fully disclosed until the con
 ference. Through governmental sugges, ton Or guidance negotiations that VII bring about a specify agreement based l'upon the existing tactS, preferably with the public repfesst-,5 should result Otherwise It win be incumheut upcn the lfgovernnent to taks the necessary steps to see that coal is produced and if added tIeg:siatien is neaiei there can be nc [ ssdouht sbut what 1. will be easily obtain.

 It would be difficult to find dn English public life a couple who were more de- voted than were Charles Montague and Elizabeth Montague.

A sAFE AND SANE FOURTH.

T. is only a matter Of few days now before we win be in the midst of the celebration of the Fourth of July. There never can be any disposition to pass 1t by lightly. but there is good sound com, mon sense In the efforts which have beEn made with a marked degree of success for safe and sane observance. sf
 PatriottEn isn't measured by the amount Of noise made and most certain ,y not by the list of casualties. It fis much better 10 be able to be alive, in possession of fingers. arms, legs and. sight Of the day after than to yield 4o the reckless appeal and contribute to The business Of the undertaken or the surgeon or possibly be responsible for more or less serious injury to others.
 The safe and sane movement has1't rucceeded in eliminating the Fourth of July accidents but t has so greatly re- fuced them that they are as nothing compared Eith what they were at one lime. IL -1as resulted in the hating of a tendency that was likely to grow worse fnstsad ot better if permitted to go en unchecked.
 Young America Isn't denied the op- n1rtunlty 70 celebrate with due cere- nouy the anniversary of the natIons birth. No one desires anything of the kind for such should be encouraged ra- ther than oe discouraged but it can be done in Just as fitting manner. if not rnors SO. by keeping within the bounds uf safety.

 The article to which am referring you, swhileeit appears on the surface to be simple news item, is really one of the many forms of fnsidious propa- ganda4 that we who are on strike in the iPawtuxet Valley have had to combat ever since the strike began,
 The people who are on strike here depend for their support upon the gen Ierositysof their. fellow workers in other cities and towns You can readily under stand the effect that such an article has on the collections in the territory where your paper is read.
