The attitude of the operators is that If the minors want I to strike, that u their privilege. Local dealers declare thev find this spirit manifested every. whr In th business. On the other hand, the miners have not been mak In, mr money due to the fact that they have been able to work only-one; two or three days eacn ween, anoui r man points out. Neither have the nnerators made money, he declares, because they have lacked a vojume of business, and slack has been a drug en the market. ' And the consumer continues to pay h'fh price for his 'At Dresenthe dealers in Pendleton nnv 1.12 cents a ton more freight thnn the coal 'costs them at the mine.
