how We are menaced by all Of them
in this country.
OF course we are in no more dan
ger of going bolshevik than are our
mansions in the skies that the hymn
book tells US about But we are going
to have quite a bit OF radicalism and
the other things as long as there is
reason for them. To illustrate how
people get that way, take SIS coal and
lumber. and some other building ma
terials which cost as much as they
did in 1918 and 1919; also take 100
to $4,000 per cent stock dividends
and we have clue. for instance, why
noble army of consumers believes
public ownership of mines would be a
good thing, and why it may come to
think that Matchmaking timber pro-
duction and federalizing the petro-
leum industry, wouldn't be a half
bad idea.-Cappers Weekly.

tack Of anti-union coal owners against
organized mine workers.

ers of the United Mine Workers, fac
fore the act In .work-weETAOINUN
ing charges that they we're accesso-
ries before the fact in the murder
Of deputy sheriff, who was killed in
1921 at the time the miners marched
into Logan county.
The trials we're removed from 10.
gan county to Charlestown. then to
Greenbrier county, and from there to
Lewisburg. AS usual. the Logan

by cashing the warrants issued

HANDLING DYNAMITE
SPEED DANGEROUS

The United States bureau of mines
estimates that at least IS per cent
of all the industrial accidents with
dynamite and other explosives are
caused BY hurrying the work and by
taking chances where conditions are
known to be dangerous. The bureau
says that probably 20 per cent are
due to carelessness, the rest having
at least fairly excusable causes.
The great essential in avoiding ac-
cidents is that inexperienced men
should be made full conscious Of every
movement in handling explosives and
should be trained to play safe until
they are automatically careful all OF
the time" says the bureau.

NOT THE FIRST FEDERATION

xatIon In fe43.

MES but the first real federation was
effected May 10, 1913, when the colo
MES Of Massachusetts, Bay, Plymouth.
Connecticut and New Haven entered
Into q compact for common defense.
At this time there were 10000 Eng
fish settlers. in, the country, divided
into six colonies. AZ the settlements
spread along the coast toward con-
tact with one another and began to
extend back into the interior, II was
seen that some common organization
was needed to meet questions which
were bound to arise from these sxten-
slons.
The movement for a federation be-
gan In Hartford and New Haven. The
Massachusetts, colonies were indiffer-
ent at nrst. Rhode Island and the
Providence plantations held aloOf. e.
did those settlers which were In what
10 now the territory Of the state Of
Maine. These aforementioned settle
ments were composed largely Of peO-
pie who had left the original colonies
because Of religious disputes. to seek
larger religious liberty. It was through
this federation Of Plymouth. Massa,
chusetts Bay, Connecticut and New
Haven colonies that the New England
ers were able to reduce the Narragan-
sett Indians to terms Of peace. to
check the aggressiveness Of the Dutch
In the neighbOrhood Of Wethersheld
and Hartford. and efTectuaIly to re-
monstrate with the Swedish colonies
along the Delaware. Twenty years
later a new federation was formed 90
