 Every year or two the coal consrm- ing public experiences holdup, and it is told by one side to the controversy that the other fellow Is to blame. The miner says that the wages paid hlm isn't the cause of the high price of coal but that the industry needs regulating The operator declares that he isn't get ting an unjustified profit, but that he cost of producing the coal and transpor- tation are to blame. And then 1t ts also insisted that there are too many miners for the amount of coal to be mined, that there arc too many mines seeking bust ness and not enough transportation fa- cilities for handling the product when 1t IS Sll pNSDc0 Oul III d. sAott blttlSo.

TWO BIG MEAsuREs.

IL fs invariably the case that some of the most important legislation comes h the closing days of a congressional session, and while congress has been engaged with many important meas ures since the present administraticA took up the reins and has enacted much needed laws which have long since been put into operation two matters which have been prominent have been the tar- ln bill and the bonus measure.
 Opposite results have been obto'-~s in the disposition of these measures A tariR bill has been enacted lacking the signature Of the president, which VIII provide tor the raazing of something like Sl00. 900 900 fin revenue and which will give protection to American products. It is bill that differs from all cthss lariR bills in that the president is given RuthortA- to make changes within cer- lain limits Tn case such become neces- szry through changing conditions here and abroad, and It means the adoption st the poii--y of protection to the eAtrnt hat 1t will be reflected in improved conditions throughout the countrgA I, Will be the needed force to boost pros perity from the position 1t has been holding around the corner out into the oren. The time that has been required to put through this legislation not only rsnscts its importance but indicates +Ae Eizs of the task that is involved in such m undertaking.
 Instead of being adopted the bonn. bill has experienced defeat. It has en. scountered determined opno-'4f-- from tha start. It has not been favored by a great number of those who might claim benefits hereunder. It has been pointed put as placing an unwsrranted burder upon the nation and that its enactment would be against the welfare of tht country.
 Happily there are those who ar' ready to give consideration to nations welfare and have the courage to stan; np in its behalf. The house in passing the bill over the veto of the presiden adhered to its former position but thi senate gave heed to the points made II .he veto message and showed its unwili nEness to insist upon such unwise leg slation. Rlong with the president, i to be commended.

United States to mix into the conduct of affairs in Eurore or the near east.
 The near east Is outside cf our sphere of influence. There are other nations upon which devolye the responsibility of dealing with conditions there. where they have interests at stake and where It Is proper to expect them to act as guardians of international welfare Let us dip into such matters and we would either be looked to to bear the burden f adjusting deplorable conditions or else the part VIC would play would arouse so much feeling that we would be kert constantly in a broil somewhere on the globe and invite the bringing of trou- ble to our own shores.
 Fully was this situation understood when the Armenian mandate was de- cIined What we would have brought upon ourselves by the acceptance of such a task has been clearly demoi- strated by the course events have taken in that part of the world. We shall cor- tinue to abide by sound judgment in de- clining to participate in any near east squabble even though We are fully con scious of the fact that 1t should be done by those in the proper position.

IN THE DAYS NEWS
BUCHAREST

Dispatches rumor that Bucherest Is in- adequate to house much enlarged na- tion's official business and that the Ru- manian capital may be moved to Fogaras a picturesque town on the Alt, almost hidden at the foot of some of that eoun- try's highest peaks. In connection with this report the following bulletin deal ing with Bucherest has been issued from the Washington. D. C., headquarters of the National Geographic Society:
 "The new Rumania bears somewhat
 the same relation to the pre-war land
 that the forty-eight States do to the
 United States of a century ago. With
 the sudden increase in the size of the country has come the assertion that
 Bucherest situated near the southern
 frontier in the midst of the black-earth
 belt which makes Rumania a granary. and just south of the great oil-helds
 which supply the major portion of the exports, is not certainly located.
 HBut there is another reason for the
 proposed change During the late war 1 the ancient forts which once guarded Bucharest from attack proved useless and situated as it is in wide monoton- ous plain the present capital lies exposed to any foe. Not a few Rumanians re- member that, for many months, what
 there was of Rumania functioned from Jassy, Fegaras could be made almosi impregnable, except from the air. "The main reason, However, is geo. graphical The water-supply of Bucha. rest is inadequate, the city site is ex- posed to the biting winter winds thai

CAN A CONFERENCE DO 1rq


 Nothing would meet with greater sat- isfaction than an announcement to the effect that the trouble in the near east is going to be adjusted around 3 con- ference table instead of by more blo3d- shed. That would be in keeping with the sentiment in behalf of peace which there has been reason to believe exists throughout large part of the word. Unfortunately the ideal method Is not always followed and it remains to be de- termined whether 1t can be brought into play for the purpose of handling Fur key and the near east.
 There comes from Kemal Pasha even a suggestion of a conference when ke seeks to be allowed to occupy a part of Thrace and to leave the DardaneiIes to be the subject of discussion at later time.
 The idea of rermitting diplomacy in- stead of bullets to settle the trouble is being urged by several of the nations which are not eager to reenter the war game for various reasons The leader of the Turkish nationalists must of course recognize. the futility of endeav- bring to oppose any one of the large European powers alone even though that should be necessary. The victory which has been obtained over the Greeks has been sufficient to prompt the grear- est possible capitalization of it. That the British attitude of opposition to the Turks in Eurore has served to stop ar immediate move on Constantinople ard the Dardanelles seems probable. It T $ at least served to provide time in which to give greater protection to the neutral zone established about Constantinop,t and the straits and if 1t is sufficient te bring an adjustment without bloodshed and without disgracing civilization it ha: served an excellent purpose.

GET POSTED ON GAME LAWS.

Golden advice is given by the depart- nent of agriculture when 1t urges nll hose who are contemplating hunttng ;, my state or territory in the United states or Canada to obtain the full text of the game laws and become posted thereon.
 This Is for the purpose of preventing that large amount of game law viola ton due to ignorance of game laws and as the result give that protection to the game which the laws undertake to iu- sure and which is needed if unjustifisd slaughter is going to be checked
 Laws of states, provinces and nat have been so drawn as to prevent the eradication of migratory birds to safe guard certain of them against extsr- mination and to preserve a needed amount of game from year to year. They are likewise intended to restrain those who go hunting just for the sake of kill Ing without regard for number taken Tor seasonal laws or the unjustlfed de. struction they are causing. It is be. rause of just such hunters that sons birds are killed and certain classes Of birds and water fowl are no longer geeH.
 The wanton destroyer. who is not dis posed to abide by laws and regulationi EH not be influenced by the readin, N the game laws. Tn his case only thl imposition of the full penalty for hi Ohenses will serve to accomplish thu desired purpose, but that happily doesn' apply to all who go into the woods vii firearms or into the fields to hunt. The, recognize the necessity of abiding D, he law and 1t is invariably beeaus they are not posted in regard theret, sAst they become Eiolators.
 lt is however, too late, to plead ig D.. snof after the law has been violate, and the evidence to convict Is at hand II is impossible to replace the daznag sons and it is of course 8 situatio, where excuses are not accepted Th law abidipE can prevent such violation through their own efforts by giv:n proper time to the study of the law. And while hunting conditions area bsin lseertaiHed the devotion of a few min ltes time to the penalties involved fo violations often helps to keep one out c rOubls.

Stories That Recall Others

 Grace Is a young lady of five years and also of very difficult disposition. The other day visitor to her fathers home found her weeping in a corner. Why, what are you crying about ?' she asked.
 e'Cause all my brothers and sisters have 8 vacation and don't have any" And why don't you have any vaca- tion?"
 "'cause don't so to school yet" Remedy Successful. A small boy was assigned by his fath- CT to guard the garden from a rnarauding band of chickens from a neighbor's coop. Frank did not like the idea of wasting his previous boyish time on unprincipled chickens and set his wits to working. He bored holes through grains. of corn, tied notes to ttne end of thread at- l tached to the grains and set the bait The foolish raiders fell for the trick Frightened by the notes nuttering a few inches from the end of their bills and the sensation of the threads in their throats the chickens went flying home and tore around the yard. This attracted | the owner and the chickens were caught and the notes read. This is what they told:
 'I've been over to Y's this afternoon ' The next day the same thing occur red and thls is what the notes said then T scratched this out of Y's onion bed l this afternoon

which city walls were the main defense, Bucharest drops away from the glitter of the Oalea Victoriei and the Bouie- wards to the rundown 0rientaiism of the outer sections and then abruptly to the empty, eusty plain. It's population has more than doubled in the last decade and houses, as elsewhere in Eastern Europe, are at a premium. It requires influence. persistence and bribery to get into one of the few hotels, the main at- fractions of which are the dining rooms, often open to the sky.
 Surrounded as it Is rich farming country, Bucharest has not lacked for food, and the restaurants are well filled at all times The Rumanian loves the uniform, and high heels on soft laced boots like those of the French avIstors suit the fancy of the young dandies whose perfumed moustaches preserve their dignity by reaching straight out instead of turning up at the ends. The women are chic
 Feminine fashions nun the gamut from such beautiful peasant costumes as few lands can equal. such native dress as Carmen Sylva loves to severely plain black gowns, relieved only by the touch of light on patent leather and silk or the tiny aigrette in jaunty hat. The women of Bucharest are it's chief charm.
 ''The few fine buildings are mixed in with unassuming structures which would never be at home in Paris og Berlin, and opposite the imposing War College Tzigane women may be working at noisy power saw which is reducing crooked poles to fire-wood.
