It is believed there will be an other general strike in the coal mines of the United States, more general than the strike of 1902, which was settled through the in terposition of President Roosevelt The employers refuse the scale that the miners insit upon; the agree ment upon the former arbitration - is about to expire, and on both sides it is believed that suspension of the. industry, is inevitable. But beyond the dispute over the scale is another obstacle namely, recognition of the uniop. It may be said, indeed, that this is the bottom question in the controver sy. The miners believe they are in a position to insist upon it. They have been making prepara tion for it during several years, and hope to be in position, through their accumulated strike fund, to prevent the owners from starving them out. In this contest they hope to have the sympathy and influence of the coal-consuming public largely on their side. For the coal-consuming public does not agree wholly with the mine-owners in their fundamental contention namely, that since they own the land yielding coal, such land is private property, with which the owner may do as he pleases, and. being private property, it is no concern of the public whether they mine coal or not. They who take this position have been badly ad vised. Coal is real estate, and no fact is better established than that the ownership of real estate is held and enjoyed subject to the public right and interest. It is not true in any civilized community that the ownership of real estate con fers upon the owner the right to do what he, will with his own. Such rights as he has are hedged round with all sorts of restrictions and limitations. He cannot be de prived of them without due pro cess of law, nor can they be for feited to the public interest with out compensation. This, however, is elementary, and to discuss it at length would be waste of time and effort Coal is an indispensable article, and coalmines are affected with a public interest. In the long run, therefore the coal operators will be compelled to made reasonable terms with their workmen. What these reasonable terms are or may be will have to be settled through public inquiry, if the miners and employes cannot agree. Obduracy, thenon the part of the owners will be met by more drastic action by the state. It will not do for the coal operators to insist that they are not accountable to the public for the manner in which their trust is administered. Ore-gonian. The latest railroad news is a story front Portland to the t.'iToet thai a company has been formed with a capital of 28.OUO.U0O to build a road front Portland to San Francisco along the coast line and from Portland, via Eugene and the McKinie pass through central and eastern Oregon and on to Ogdcn where c onnection will be made with the Gould system and the Rock Island. The new system will com prixe 1280 iviles of track and will pass through the richest undevel oped country in the United 'States. Four hundred miles have already been surveyed and it is claimed that right-of-way men are' now in the field securing right-of-way. The Spokane papers publish a story to the effect that Wilson Mimer, who recently married old Mrs. Yerkes, widow of the late traction magnate, was once 4,vagged" in the Washington city and served a term i't the city jail Perhaps he will wish himself there again if the old lady should "yerk" him around by the hair after she hears of his entanglements with numerous other women. Today the papers are filled with pictures of Miss Alice Roosevelt. Next year that lady may be rele gated to a back seat while the space is fillet! with pictures of the cunning, cooing Longworth twins or, perchance, triplets The new home of the Condon Commercial Club is proving a mosl, popular resort' and many Condon citizens are becoming fair ly well acquainted with the'r neighbors. The club seems to be filling a long felt want. Miss Roosevelt has invited a pair of Texas twins to her wed ding. Perhaps this is a suggestion from the president who desires to show the future Mrs. Longworth a good example. If Portland newspaper artists will stand Miss Sheek on her head and take her picture and then give the public a new deal it will no doubt be greatly appreaciated.
