In gloom. Somewhere the skies are

up all night to sins their sweet refrain;
but here, the north wind has an edge

long months of snow, and many weary
storms will blow, before we see the

BLOCKING
PRELIMINARY developments at the conference called
to mediate the differences between the striking coal
miners and the operators, show that the operators are 'al
ready capitalizing the public reaction against the extrava
gant demands of the unions and refusing compromise
while the unions, led by radicals tainted with bolshevism,
and enthused over the preliminary success of the strike,
are obstinate in their demands aiming at confiscation of
the mines.
Such outrages. as that at Centralia play directly into
the hands of the reactionary capitalists who are thereby
enabled to secure a support of public opinion that their
autocratic attitude does not merit. They threaten the
cause of organized labor with destruction, which is has
tened by the autocratic attitude of the lab6r unions them
selves. ;
The autocrats of business seek to make I. W. W.ism,
and bolshevism . synonymous in the minds of the public
with unionism and make their own cause that of "preserv
ing national honor' and the appeal will be forthcoming
that the nation must support their cause to save the coun
try from bolshevism and anarchy.
The autocrats of labor have made such a situation
possible by their unreasonable attitude, their excessive
demands and their multiplicity of strikes. They are at
tempting programs that menace the government and
threaten with ruin the labor organizations they are ex
ploiting. They are jeopardizing everything labor has won
for half a century.
The melancholly feature of the situation is that it
is the unorganized public that suffers and will continue
to suffer. If it is necessary for the nation to act to curb
the wanton excesses of organized labor, advantage will
be taken by big business to set back the industrial and
economical progress of the country for years.
s Irresponsible labor leaders are blind indeed if they
do not understand that they are not only destroying their
own organizations but hampering national advancement.

TTIT'l MISTRKS8 OF TOE HOUSE
I do not know how long John stayed
down stairs with his mother. I only
know that after I had wept until it
seemed to me I had no tears left, and
had sobbed until my throat felt as
though some one was drawing a noose
tighter and tighter about it, I must
have dropped asleep..
It was" dark when John awakened
me. He must have' been standing by
the bed looking at me for some mo
ments, because when I opened my eyes
he leaned over me with such a kind
and sympathetic look that I roached
out my arms to him like a little child.
Tor a moment I was not quite con
scious of all that had happened since
1 had reached his mother's house I
only knew that John was there and
that he loved me and I loved him. The
moment my husband spoke, everything
came back to me In a flood of bitter
ness. . ,
"You dear child," he said soothing
ly, "I have made It all right. Mother
knows who is the head of this house
ami she understands that you are go
ing to run it in the future."
"Oil, John, John, I couldn't do that!
You don't know what you are asking
of me. 1 cannot come into your mo
ther's house which she has managed
for years and simply take the reins of
government away from her. It would
be too dreadful! She would hate me
worse than she does now!"
"Never you mind about that." John
blustered. "I am going to be master
In my own bouse and my wife is its
mistress."
"Hut, John. I can't do it! You must
not ask me to!"
"Are you going to spoil everything
now that I have it all arranged?"
"John, I cannot, even for you, put
myself In n position which will can.s.

ing. If you think It Is nbsoluto neces
sary that I should live in your mother's
house for a while, I will do so, but it
must be as her guest, I shall have

not go to her now and say that you
have backed out. Besides, I did it for
you. I thought it was the square thing
to do to make her fully realize that I
was married and that she would have
to take second place."
"Oh, John," I said, " your poor
mother! Can't you. understand how
It must have humiliated her? Surely
you cannot love your mother ns I do
mjne and subject her to tills, even for
me."
"Do you mean to tell mo," exclaimed
John, veering quickly, "that you
wouldn't turn down your parents or
anyone else in the world for me in the
some way I have been doing for you?"
"No, John, I could not do it for you
or any one else, and although your
'turning down' ns you call it, has been
kindly meant I am afraid .you have
made it impossible for youi" mother
and me ever to be friends."
"Well, I'll be d . I have thought

then, when alter all my work, persua

her 'round you inform me that you will

shall I do with the two of you?"
John looked so perturbed, unhappy
and altogether boyish rueful, that my
sense of humor got the best of ino
and I laughed.
"I don't know what you are laughing
at, he said, angry in an Instant. "You
wouldn't laugh If you had been with

"Oh, yes! Yes, that would have been

on the griddle. I would have been

Again I smiled at mother's strategy
for she had known we were coming.
"Of course, John, I shall be glad to
go," and started immediately to bathe
my swollen eyes.
"All right," he answered, "meet me
