THE OPERATORS SIDE.

The miners riot at the mine of the
Southern Illinois Coal company at
Herrin may possibly center the
thought of the public on the fact that
there exists an absolute monopoly in
the matter of coal mine labor in this
state. SAYS f. c. Honnold, secretary
treasurer OF the Operators associa-
ton. in q statement issued to the
press.
The mine in question. he says, is a
so-called strip or steam shovel mine
in which the everything earth is re-
moved by large revolving steam SHOW
els. The coal thus uncovered is then
loaded directly into mine cars
Certificated miners are not IN con-
sequence required at such mines. The
operation OF the steam shovels is done
by members of the Steam ShoveIers
union. Such additional men as are
required for loading the coal. where
it is handled by hand. are only com
mon unskilled manual Iaborers such
as might work on the highways or in
the fields. or anywhere else.
Regardless of these conditions"
says Mr.. Honnold. "and Of the fur

"A shaft or slope mine-one where

TO work. he points out. requires under
the state law that men so employed
must have a certificate Of compe-
tency- The issue OF these certificates
is entirely under the control OF the
United Mine Workers. As a result no
shaft mine in the state OF Illinois can
even start to work. II men were i'm
ported from another state. even tho
they were skilled and carried a GER

Daily Talk
YOUR LITTLE DEVILS.

Your real enemies are your little
Devils-those silent, unseen little fell
lows in the garb of gloomy and sulky
moods, fear, gossip, lying, mistrust,
distrust. encouragement, cynicism,
that hang to your heels and follow
you, irritate you, madden you. 1t Is
they who block your success, when
you allow them to stay with you.
Your first and biggest task each day
is to start off right by Kidding your
self of your little Devils.
For otherwise, if you give them an
inch they will seek to take miles-and
all your smiles;
The little Bad Mood Devil that
takes you into your day with crouch
over some trivial thing-the Shrug-
shoulder Devil that seeks to cast
slur upon a character-the little Mis-
trust Devil that sits impudently at
conference when your Judgment and
courage should be alone-aWay with
them ALL Their increasing powers
that grow from day to day so long as
you let them hang around, sap and
suck at your very lifeblood, your in
dependence, your happiness.
Your biggest task each day Is TO
start off right by Kidding yourself
early of your little Devils.
Don't allow them to deceive you
They wear false faces. They smile
smoothly Also, they speak softly
sometimes. But be on guard. They
will follow you from place to place,
but If you are brave and calm enough,
ever self controlled, your little Devils
might as well not eXist-you won't
need to fear them, because they won't
be able to see you.

Mark sullivan. national political
correspondent of the New York Eve
ming Post. announces that the Demo-
Gratis expect to carry the country on
the tariff issue at the coming cleo
ton. Mr.. sullivan probably has be-
gun to count his chickens too soon.
History teaches that it will be neces-
zary for the majority to pass a meas
ure on the lines of the Fordney bill
and necessary for such law to be in
operation a short time before the
Democrats can carry the country on
the tariff issue. All these conditions
at-this time seem very remote The
Republican leaders appear to have be-
come wise to the tariff thing. To talk
about passing the Fordney bill makes
good political capital in certain quar-
tiers and no harm is inflicted on the
country so long as the bill is not
passed But if the bill were to be
passed at once. the penalty probably
would not be visited on the majority
before 1924

A Canadian writer points 6ut that
the exports of Canada to the United
Estates in Fordney bill commoditiesIn
the four months of 1921, as compared
with the four months in 1920. fell
from thirty-three and a half million
dollars to ten million dollars. AS
goods purchased must be paid for and
the purchaser must sell his own prod
ucts before he can venture to pur-
chase, this result was unavoidable.

producers lost SO much trade. rs it

THE ANGLo-sAxON TRAIT.
BY EDGAR a. GUEST.

THE ANGLO-SAAON TRAIT.
The good old Anglo Saxon race was build

In early days eur fathers worked year
after year upon the soil,
With sturdy arms they felled the trees,
and reaped their grain from stub
born fields.
And in their children's breasts they sought
to plant the grit which never yields.
Defeat has swept them from their homes,
but they returned to fight again;
Pillage and fire and flood have made their
carrier labOrs all seem vain,
But still tenaciously they chung unto their
dream and to their lands,
For no true AnglO-SaxOn yields while he
can labor with his hands.
This is the heritage we own. this is the
glory of our race,
That we can stand and keep the faith
whatever hardships we must face;
Sweep all we own on earth away. burn
down our buildings you will.

him the glorious strength of toll.

HEAR AND HOME PROBLEMS
Written for The State Journal
BY ELIZABETH THOMPSON

Dear Mrs. Tho npson-I am a young
girl and have been going with a young
man for two years. This boy is three
years old than I aid the same age
of my sister. Last Christmas he called
and told me he could not fulfill the
date he had with me butt took my
sister to a dance. They have been go
ing together ever since. My sister
now has a diamond and I am broken
hearted. My sister, altho engaged. is
not true to him but goes with other
boys. Should I tell him? If I did,
maybe he would come back to me
as I cannot live without him.
GRIEVING.
GRIEvING: Leave the young man
alone. You can't Lake him love you
love will not last. If he would
not be true to you now, he wouldn't
be later. You are young. There is
plenty of time for the love that is to
be part of your life. Don't take
your early affairs so seriously-and
don't ever think you cant live with
out him" From his actions it is
apparent tina. you could not live very
well with him. Cheer up. Brighten
up your spirits and there'l1 be other
boys seeking your companiofship.
WALTER - Since the girl has
chosen to believe the other young
man in preference to you, I would
advise you to let her go her way. Do
not try to interfere because she will
not believe what you have to say and
you advice will do no good. Have
enough self-respect not to worry about
what some people think, as long a.
you feel you are right

1t is an economic fact often repeat
ed but not fully appreciated. perhaps.
that dollar spent for productive pur-
poses changes hands ten times in a
year. The wage Garner spends the
dollar for food. the merchant pays it
over to the wholesaler. the wholesaler
hands Il on to the manufacturer or
packer. the manufacturer uses it to
buy from the farmer. and the farmer
buys clothing. and so on If that dol
lar could be taxed. altho at rate so
low as scarcely to be noticed. the gov
ernment's financial troubles speedily
would end. Also the taxpayers bur
den would be lightened>because every
body would pay.

Illinois state officials place the
blame for the Herrin massacre on the
local officials OF Williamson county.
They may be right, in which case the
fact may be set down as a result of
choosing peace Officers by popular
vote. Officials frequently are reluc-
tant to do anything that will endanger
their reelection. But whatever the
facts there exists the urge to find n
