Comes the announcement from Pendleton that the direct ors of the Union Stock Show have made arrangements with saddlemaking firm in the Roundup City to furnish as Viand prize at the stock show and wild west events a Pen-idleton-madc saddle, silver-mounted. Maybe if some of the lironc-busters could use ' that saddle in the contest they could ride 'em better! j THE LITTLE PEDESTRIANS. ' Many rules have been given to drivers for the protec tion of children ; and goodness knows, they need them. Here are some for parents, from a traffic expert: ' 1. - Don't let your children play in the street. 2. Don't let them walk in the street. ' -8. Don't let them cross a street in any other place than an intersection. ' ; 1 .-4. Don't let them run across a street; make them i . walk. . 'M 5. Don't' let them play near congested streets j or, intersections. ,. ' These rules are more easily given than enforced. Chil dren are naturally heedless, , and they make a peculiarly difticlt Uaffic-problom because u diiyn--iievcn chii. tall Mhat they will do. But while the conscientious driver' is doint his best to look out for a sudden irruption of children across his path, parents surely can do no less than try to hammer these elementary rules of caution into the chil dren's minds. Repetition eventually will succeed, and care' fulness become habitual. , THE HEART OK THE STRIKE. That British general strike was purported to be about (he British coal mining situation. . The other trades all said they merely struck in sympathic support of the miners, liccause the latter were locked out to make them accept the terms of the mine olners. Those terms combined lower wages and longer horn's. Ihe thing was not really so simple as this. There was evidence of a widespread desire on the part of organized British labor to force a show-down and prove its power. Also a desire on the part of British capitalistic and con servative classes to make nn impressive demonstration of their power. Each side hojwd to establish its supremacy. The tragedy of the situation was that the two sides seemed about equally watched. In this wide extension of the con flict, the miners and their claims were almost lost sight of. On the face of figures from London, the million or so Brit ish coal miners plainly deserved svmnathv. Their wairpsJ up to the beginning of the big strike, ran from $8 to $17 n week for able-bodied miners, depending on the district. At best, that is little to suport a family on. Hie average British miner's pay, in purchasing power, has been one thiid as much as the average American miner's. , And the mine owners' proposals would have reduced this low wage by $3 or $4 a week. The oilier trades were generally criti cised, in this country, for butting in and turning the trou bles of one industry into a national issue. But an average American will find it hard to blame those coal miners. Little wonder, therefore, that the announced settlement of the strike is acclaimed the work of a merciful Cod, a boon to hordes of suffering human licings. Both sides will ohow much good sense in ending the quabblc without further ado.
