Day In, day out. breathing the de stroying coal dust, paying a dead father's bills, growing up to Igno rance, 111 health, deformity of mind nnd body, the Pennsylvania breaker hoy. serves the master who boasts of th" greatness of Ameiicnn Instltu tlons. "He had only been in school one year." says the press dispatch. "HIk lather was killed in the mines, and owed $50 to the company at the tinin of his death. The boy had to stay out of school and pay -up this debt. He said the dust was very bad and his back sot lame at times." Poor, helpless, innocent, orphaned slave! Twelve years old, paying the debt of a dead father who gave the best strength of his life to thn baron who boasts that Almighty Rod lias placed the blessings ,of earth in thf hands of the corporation! Breathing the dust and .stench of those foul death chambers, barred from the sunlight, denied the Innocent enjoynienth of childhood, creeping from one stago of ignorance to an other, dwindling in mind kwd body, crowding through the corridor of the underworld, like an animal! "When lie got tired and stopped to rest, the boss would pull his ears and tell him to work faster." Curse the slave owners no moio; their crimes were shining virtues compared to the atrocities of the twentieth- century coal mines. This boss, a white man. (hardly a human) driving a white child to a task that Is killing him by inches. A widowed woman at home, wondering If the tired arms of hur 12-year-old are qual to the task of feeding thn living and paying thn debts of tho dead! TIiIh, in our own beloved land. This. In the home of the richest and the poorest, the best and tho worst, the most lovable and the most deteatablo specimens of human kind. promises will satisfy them. There j must be some tangible answer to their plea. The vast districts lying unused h: the arid counties are bar riers to settlement, just as the Co lumbia bar Is a burlier to commerce. Western Oregon, with her high degree of development, her natural lltness tor a thorough and perfect state of usefulness, does not realize the situ ation east of the Cascades. Natuie has been kind to the coast valleys. She has placed no gieat barriers be fore them and the work to be done by man Is of a different nature from that to be done east of the mountains, legislation can be applied there to the finishing touches of education and adornment in Eastern Oregon, It must be applied to the physical feat ures that handicap social and busi ness life. The sterile lands, hanging like a mill stone to civilization, the Insurmountable barrier of the Upper Columbia that holds back the tides of commerce that would How out from Eastern Oregon to the markets of the world, naturally as the river flows lrom the mountain to tho sea these must be fought and conquered and the only logical way to fight them Is to have representatives In' congress who understand and reallzo the true status of these Issues in Eastern Ore gon. No matter how able or honest a Western Oregon man may be; no matter how keenly alive to the Inter ests of the state, no matter how thoroughly in touch with his constitu ents, there is lacking that true and indcspensable familiarity with the actual details of Eastern Oregon need3, which underlies the spirit of j representation. Western Oregon now . has her quota In Congress. In justice i to tile great developments that must be made In Eastern Oregon to insuie the complete utility of her vast area, In justice to her population, her situ ation and the peculiar legislation If one dealer should steal a cord of i wood or bale of hay from another, he : would be arrested for crime: if a man, even though he had no horse . to ride, should decide that he was j tired of walking through the world, and should take the best mule his , neighbor owned, he would pay just penalty for his action. Yet newspa pers take cord wood, baled hay, mules and other commodities from their j neighbors columns, day after day and j we are still at large. Judge Gray, chairman of the nrbl- i tratlon board said, when two help-1 ers. blind coal miners, were lei' upon the stand to testify: "Don't let this j matter be overdone." No, but In the name of heaven, let the truth be told, that its harrowing dctnlls may drive I the public to a true solution of the I strike question.
