Joaquin -Miller has been talking
about the poetry of the nineteenth
century as if he wete a poctand
able lo dip into the future as only
a true pott can. Eliminate a
studied quaintness, his long towsley
hair and beard, his high heel boots
and crude Westesn ways and the
"poet" that people call Joaquin
Miller would he forgotten. Hit
"poetry" has already disappeared.

Among the peculiar features of
newspaper work are the , comic
things that creep innocently into
print. Now the last thing on earth
one would look for at the head of
the local column of a paper whose
chief reporter and editorial mana
ger is a lady, is thai which adorns
the head of the local column of
The Dalits Chronicle "Wanted A
Wife." The foreman is said to he
n married man and unless he is
thinking seriously of appearing in
the divorce courts, it could have no
bearing on his ca.-e and all the
other members of "the force" are
yoMiig ladies. Jt wouldn't look so
bad in 'he Journal with iis hoary
headed old "chronic" anil the nll.tr

Again we change, and for the
betti r. When the wcfcnt editor of
the Journal purchased the paper, i
there was a li.-t of a little more than
four hundred bona lido subscribers.
We now have over 800 and issue
over 900 papers this week. With
the beginning of the new year we
will have passed the 1000 mark,
ami we doubt not that our circula
tioi; will gradually increase in the
future us it has in the past. The
Journal will continue to Jabor for
the best interests of this county and
of the surrounding territory, as it
has in the past. We do not intend
to advocate anything that will be
detrimental to the interests of our
home people ; but, on the contrary,
will stand for the rights of the
citizens of this county as against ail
outliers', irrespective of race, color
or previous political afliliutions.
Anent the settlement of the labor
troubles in the Coal mines comes
up the question as to what means
may be used to overcome the evils
resulting from prolonged strikes or
strikes of any kind. From a cur
sory perusal of a few of the features
of the New Zealand laws it is evi
dent that that ishindisfar in ad
vance of the larger nations of the
earth in the matter of the settle
ment of labor troubles. That there
are grievances among the laboring
ch.te.-i 8 no one deniie, hut that
strikes are the proper method of
fettling the in even one denies who
has the gi od of all classes to heart.
In New Zealand there are no strikes
and no lockouts. All grievances
must be submitted to a hoard of
arbitration, whose actions are final
and from which no appeal can be
taken. This in itself is a bar to
any serious difficulty between labor
and capital and should he adopted
by our National government at the
very earliest opportunity. The
last strike in the anthracite regions
b-iaerwt trior,, iri row in actual
etudi than will be earned by all of
the strikers, at good wages, for n
long period of time. While this
paper has no desire to potio as n
radical, or illusionary reform sheet,
vet it will advocate such reforms
that are for the general good of the
country at large and one of these
we believe is the government owner
ship ai.d working of the coal mini's.
That they can be operated as
cheaply as under private owner
ship there is no room to doubt and
the only reason why they should
be owned and controlled by the
general government is the opjwsi-
tion from those who expect to reap
large returns from an investment
of ft few dollars. We do not deny
the right of capital to seek invest
ment where it will reap the largest
harvest, and it is only just that it
should have protection ; but it
should! not be protected at the ex
pense of labor, (hie of the wor.-t
grafts in the labor world is the
eoaipaiiv store, where the emplov-
ees are compelled to trade offoose
t heir job. This should he done away
with at the. next session of Con
grtss. If there is not enough money
to he made at the lni-inos without
grafting, then let those who prac
tice tliis gallic get out of this
business and stay out, by all
means let us have a compulsory
arbitration law enacted at the next
session of Congres-i and then the
matter of strikes will lie at an end
and the consumer will not lie nt the
mercy of both horns of the dilemma
at one and the same time.

Wasiunuton', Oct,, 21), Presi
dent lloosevclt today issued his
lU'oclam.stion designating Thursday
November 27, as a day of Thanks
giving. The proclamation was as
follows:
"According to the yearly custom
of our people, it fall upon Ihe
president at this season to appoint
a day of festival and thanksgiving
to Hod. Over a century and a
quarter has passed since this coun
try took i'.s place among the na
tions of the earth and during that
time we have had more to be thank
ful for than has fallen to the lot of
any other people, (iencration after
generation has grown to manhood
and issed away. ICach has hail
to bear its peculiar burdens, each
to face its special crisis and each
has known years of grim trial,
when the country was menaueed
by malice, domestic or foreign,
when the hand of the Lord was
heavy upon it by death, by flood,
or pestilence, when in bodily dis
tress and anguish of foul it paid
the penally of folly and a forward
heart. Nevertheless, decade by
decade, we have struggled onward
and upward, we now abundantly
enjoy material well being, anil
under the favor of the Most High
we are striving earnestly to achieve
moral and spiritual uplifting.
"The year that has just c!o.,ed
has been one of peace am! oversow
ing plenty. Rarely has any peo
ple enjoyed greater prosperity than
we are now enjoying. For this we
render heartfelt and solemn thanks
to the giver of good and we seek to
praise Him not by words only, but
by deeds, by the way in which wc
do our duty to ourselves and our
fellow men.
"Now, therefore, I, Theodore
Roosevelt, President of the United
States, do hereby designate as n
day of general thanksgiving, 'I burs
day, the 27th of the coming N'ovein- j
Iter, aud do recommend that!
throughout the land the people:
cease trom their onlinarv oueiipa
tions and in their several homes
and plae, j of wor-hip render
thaks unto Almighty Cod fop the
manifold hhs-iiigs of the p:'-t year.
