by negotiation or by means such as
were employed at Herrin.
John L. Lewis, international pres
ident of the mine workers, has bet
ter comprehension of the force OF
public opinion than has Capellini,
whom he is trying to hold in check.
He is forced, however, to play the
game in order to retain his hold on
the organization and recently return
ed from abroad with an agreement
fl ON the British miners not to mine
ccal for this country in event of
tie-up over here. To this the Attor-
ney General of the United States re-
piled that such interference with
the supply of coal will be prevented
by the Government of the United
States promptly and forcefully".
The report of the Governments
fact finding commission is expected
about July l. President Harding, who
by this time has had opportunity to
become acquainted with many of the
facts which will be set forth, has ex-
pressed the opinion that operators as
we'll as miners share in the blame. 1t
would indeed be strange happening
were it otherwise, contrary to human
nature, but how may the innocent
party, the public. avoid suffering for
the sins of operators and miners?
And that is not all; the consumer of
anthracite, determined to burn only
that, should not overlook the fact
that the people of Pennsylvania are
seeking by way Of taxes on coal and
coal lands a share in the consumers
cash. In that state 125 coal COM
panies are before the court protesting
against an increase of 1926 100000 in
valuation of their coal lands.
Anyone must be optimistic indeed
in view of all these controversies to
be settled to expect that settlement
to be prompt or reasonably satisfac-
tory all around. The most strongly
assured feature of the situation
seems to be the evident necessity of
getting coal into our bins while the
getting is good.

WORTH THINKING OVER

"Finally, it seems reasonable to
emphasize the belief that we must
settle our water power questions
quickly, or we will find that states
with industries having a reason for
coming to Maine on account of cur
power will have filed their needs
from super power lines drawing from
other sources at cost lower than we
can offer. A not impossible develop
ment Of the future is that if we con-
tinue incapable of settling our own
water power problems they will be
settled for us. When that time
comes, will there be industries in
Maine to use that power? The result
depends very much upon ourselves
The above, the concluding para
graph in the report Of Maj. George c.
Danforth, the retiring chief engineer
of the Maine Water Power Commits
sion, is eminently worth thinking
over. So is the entire report for that
matter, but this particular paragraph
emphasizes the situation now exist
ing in this State, a situation some
what resembling that of the unfor-
tuate sleeping at the switch.
Then, too. it would be unwise to
overlook what Chairman Kicker Of
the Commission had to say about
the need of the work of the Commits
sion, and the need that it be done
properly. Everybody in the State of
Maine, to say nothing Of those out
side, know Mr.. Kicker to be a far
seeing and successful business man,
whose opinion of a business propo-
sition Is entitled to respectful con-
sideration. Is it to have this?

SAYING MORE ABOUT COAL

The Federal Coal Commission
takes occasion at this time when the
anthracite miners are in convention
and the radicals among them are ad-
vocating radical measures to inform
them that the public will tolerate
no suspension of anthracite coal sup
ply" this year. The miners are re-
minded Of the wisdom Of leaving the
door of negotiation open, left open to
the consideration of the joint scale
committee. The justice of the re-
quest is clear, indeed the contract
now in force provides that the con-
tinuance Of production after August
81. 1923. shall be upon such terms as
the parties may agree upon in the
light of the report of the commission.
Like advice had good effect at the
convention of the bituninous miners
and it is hoped like success will at
tend it in this instance.
Undoubtedly there is a large ele-
ment in that convention saying to
themselves if not aloud: "Who cares
what the public tolerates or doesn't
tolerate? The public can't either dig
coal or do without 1t. They didn't
tolerate shooting scabs at Herrin but
the scabs were killed, organized labor
controls that county and the public
has been unable to do anything about
it,. A prominent leader among these
radicals is Rinaldo Capellini, form
err miner, now president of District
No. which has 10000 members. His
address evoked a storm of applause
from the convention. He would force
an increase in wages, though cooler
heads say the public will not buy the
coal at a higher price. Capellini is an
Italian, was a miner and lost an arm
and didn't receive the damages which
he claimed. He disappeared, studied
English and reappeared as a leader.
He told the convention $40 day was
not too much for a miner, though
admitting labor had not got that far.
The course he would travel was re-
vealed, however, and he typifies the
spirit which would base the wage on
the workman's ability to command it
by either fair means or foul, either

er-Foxcroft dispatch in the Bangor
Commercial. To say that a majority
Of residents OF this county strongly
object to the pardoning Of Lambert,
is stating 1T mildly. Particularly in
the upper end of the county there is
a strong objection to the liberating
of this man, who was convicted by
jury Of his peers after one Of the
longest murder trials in the history
Of the State Of Maine. Not only
did the trial last several weeks but
every safeguard was thrown around
the accused and he was defended by
one Of the keenest criminal lawyers
that ever practiced in Maine. Hon.
Henry Hudson of Guilford. The wo-
men Of the county are particularly
concerned when the question of
pardon comes up. One woman, prom
inent in the twin towns, was heard
to remark that should Lambert be
pardoned 1t would be an insult to
every woman in Piseataquis county.

CASTLES IN THE AIR

When the golden sun was sinking
And the birds sang far and wide.

While you stood beside me there

Golden castles in the air.
Fragrant roses now are faded,
Hopes bright star has slowly set:
Loves sweet music hushed and
