What the Coal Strike ha Done.
( Landon Knight, well known as
'l - a magazine contributor, has an il
lustrated article in Conkey's Home
Journal for November on "What'
"the Coal Strike Has Done," that
brings to light some very interest
ing detail concerning the inner
workings of both the operators and
the miners. Mr. Knight spent
considerable time in the anthra
cite coal regions as special repre
sentative of Conkey's Home Journ
al and gives a fair and impartial
report of his investigations. He
gays the condition of the minors
and their families has been gros.-ly
misrepresented to the public and
that the9 are not at all the down
trodden, poverty-stricken class, they
have been represented by many
writers. lie claims for them that
they are anion;: the best paid work
ingmen in the world; that they
have good huincs and educated
families. On the oilier hand, Mr.
Knight does not spare the operator.
He brands as false the statement
of the operator that ho ran not pay
a higher price for labor without
working his mine at a loss. "The
fact of the matter is," says Mr.
' Knight, "that the combined profits
of the anthracite operator for the
past year represented sixteen per
cent, on the stock of the companies,
while private mine owners who
work at greater disadvantage in the
matter of freight rates, in no case
that I have been able to discover,
made less than fifteen per cent, of
the investment."
"But," continues Mr. Knight,
"from a sociological standpoint,
the worst feature of this colossal
conflict has been the general dis
satisfaction and destruction of con
fidence that it created. It is per
ceptible in the miner's home. It
is seen in the faces of himself and
his family. Thrift, economy, the
education of the children, the pay
ments on the homes, all seem to he
forgotten, swallowed up in the
memory of his grievances. As one
walks the streets of Shenandoah, a
general air of sullen .depression
pervades the place. Neighbors of
years refuse to speak as they pass;
unkept children loiter in the alleys,
when they should' be in school,
and even the house of God is not
free from the curse that has fallen
over the land."
Jumped on a Ten Penny Nail.
The little daughter of Mr. J. X.
Powell jumped on an inverted rake
made of ten penny nails, and' thrust
one nail entirely through her foot and
a second one half way through. Cham
berlain's Pain Balm was promptly
applied and live minutes after the pain
had disappeared and no more suffering
was experienced. In three days the
child was wearing her shoe as usual
and with absolutely no discomfort.
Mr. Powell is a well known merchant
of Forkland, Va. Pain Balm is an
antiseptic and heah such injuries with
out maturation and in one-third the
time required by the usual treatment.

Harry Witycombe, who spent the
summer and fall in the Fish Luke
country, as a forest ranger, arrived
home about a week ago. He stood
the duties of his position splendid
ly and says he had a splendid out
ing. The fires left by campers: kept
him fairly busy, but he was fortu
nate in experiencing no disastrous
fires in his territory. Harry and
another ranger on the government
reserve were the last two men to be
discharged hi the close of the sea
son. Next year it is thought that
the number o! rangers employed
by the government will be consid
erably less than the number in ser
vice the past year. It is proposed
that during the coming year cabins
shall be built on the various moun
tain peaks of the reserve and an
outlook kept by a "man stationed
there to overlook the surrounding
country with the aid of a powerful
glass. ' In ease the man on the
mountain discovers an alarming
amount of smoke in a certain dis
trict he will communicate the in-
telligence to a given place by means
of a heliograph. Men will then be
sent to investigate the mattter. It
is thought by some that this will
not prove a successful method of
coping with the fire, as it is claimed
that at certain periods, and in tome
parte of the reserve, the atmos
phere will become so smoky that it
will be impossible for the lookout
to locate where there is or is not a
fire. And should he determine this
matter to his own satisfaction he
would be unable to flash his mes
sage to the desired point. These
are some of the points that Mr.
YVithycombe has heard discussed in
connection with this prWblem
Corvalli.- Gazette.

" Last winter an infant child of mine
had croup in a violent form," says
Elder John W. Rogers, a Christian
Evangelist, of Filley, Mo. "I gave her
a few doses of Chamberlain's Cough
Remedy and in a short time all danger
was past and the child recovered."
This remedy nut only cures croup, but
when given as soon as the first symp
toms appear, will prevent the attack.
It contains no opuai or other harm
ful substance and may be given as con
fidently to a baby as to an adult. For
sale by all druggists.

Judge V. A. Booth, of Crook

is very good and everyone pros
pering in and around Prineville.
Mrs. M. Shields, Qf Mitchell, a

Edward S. Tull, who with his
son is engaged in the' cattle busi
ness in Long valley, was in Luke-
iew this week on land business.
Mr. Tull says the stockmen of his
section turn off about five hundred
head of beef each year. Those who
did not sell too early this season
are well satisfied with the prices
secured. Tull & Son turned off
about 75 head and recieved 33 all
round two-year-old steers and old
cows. Lakeview Examiner.
Oregon Mining Bureau.
Oregon proposes this winter to
establish a state mining bureau. It
is a good idea. Every mining com
monwealth should have such a
state department. Every dollar so
spent would be the means of induc
ing inquiry and development. This
is an age of advertising, and no mat
ter how good the wares of the mer
chant or how valuable the mineral
resources of a state, both need
proper publicity among buyers.
Washington, Idaho, California,
Colorado and Montana find it
profitable to maintain such an in
stitution, and Oregon could well
profit by their example. That
state is the possessor of great min
eral wealth. Rightly run, nn Ore
gon state mining bureau could In
duce investment, disseminate accur
ate information and be of great
aid in a variety of ways to Oregon
mining men. The Oregon legisla
ture could well appropriate, say
$25,000 annually for the mainte
nance of a state mining bureau. Its
good effects would He manifest nnd
would he immediately noticeable.
It is indirectly as much of an ad
vantage to the farmer or lumber
man or stockruiser or merchant as
it is to the miner to have such an
intituthm. Mining is the great
basic industry of the notion. The
miner is a consumer of all products,
a customer of all manufacturers,
and a competitor of none. Mining

A very pretty idea for the ci It'
bration of Halloween originated in
the minds of a soviet v of little girls
'known as the I). Y. T's. who, after
I ascertaining the number of patients
I at the ho.-pital and several others
I who are ill in the city, carried a
; beautiful bound to each ,,no. In
striking contrast to the depreda
tions committed in former years
was this sweet remembrance, which I
we hope will be continued in th
vears to conic. Dulles I'hroncb
