Unemployment Vexes Labor Ministry
THE labor party went into office with glowing promises of
relieving the situation as to unemployment in England.
As months have passed and nothing has been done, the re
sponsible, ministers have met with considerable criticism.
J. H. Thomas, lord privy seal. and minister of employment,
said a few days ago: - . ,
"Quite frankly I tell you I have not solved the unem
ployment problem. I wonder how many would be honest and
frankly say theyexpect the problem to be solved in six
months?"
It is the old story of campaign promises failing of ful
fillment; this perhaps not through any want of desire, but
because of the obstacles' fax the way. It is the old story of the
"outs" finding their hands tied when they become the "ins."
It was easy enough for the labor orators to end unemploy
ment by soap-box speeches; but getting real bread and but
ter jobs for three or four million working men is a different
matter. -
; The MacDonald government is not finding the going as
easy as it was at first The victory of Phillip Snowden over
reparations and the advertised if scarcely apparerit success
of the MacDonald mission to Washington, gave the govern
ment a swift push at the start. Since then internal problems
have obtruded, baffling and rather painful to the govern
ment. Besides unemployment, there has been the bad situa
tion in coal mining. The labor government seeks restoration

Another important earlr dar
agitation flowed from the fight of
Cockstock and his braves at The
Falls on March 4, 1844. Cock
stock was probably a Molalla In

was a Wasco Indian.) A negro
named George Winslow had come
in 1834 with the Ewlng Young
and Hall J. Kelly party. This
Winslow negro had overreached
Cockstock in some business tran
saction. To right the account
Cock&tock appropriated a horse
belonging to Winslow. but was
compelled by Indian Agent White
to restore it Thereupon Cock
stock, who was a bold and vicious
fellow, vowed vengeance against
Winslow and . another negro
named. James D. Saules. who was

Cockstock Into his hands, intend

and Xez Perces to be tried by
tneir laws. This so enraged the
turbulent Cockstock that he start
ed on a rampage that made all the
trouble and ended 'in his own
death and that ot two worthy
white men.
Not long after this affair
Saules himself was arrested fox

For instance, it Is not at all uncommon to have one ei thesi
fevers produce Inflammation of the lining mem
brane of the nose. This may not amount te
much, but sometimes it creeps up the tube from
the nose to the ear. Then there may be violent

very mild and the little patient hardly sick at
all, there may be serious trouble in the . ear.
In every fever in a young child the parent should
be on the lookout lor tnis complication and re
ort it to the doctor as early as possible. It

neglect of this sort that I speak so often about
the ear. .
