from a visit to the home of his moth
er near Monument, lie states that
there will be little wool come from
that section to the Heppner ware
houses this season owing to the very
bad condition of the road across and
out of the Wall creek canyon. Just
now this road is almost impassable
and it is the opinion of Mr. Sweek
that the greater portion of the wool
will go over to Condon.

looks of all crops in his neighborhood.

home at Helix, Oregon, this week on
a visit to his parents, Mr. and Mrs

I Fie- This whole difficulty comes as a
.result of the unscientific manner infH
; which labor is distributed. Excess of 1
i employment hours and pay, and then
1 110 'nbor at all works poorly for both
j worker and public. Human nature
, is a factor that must be counted on.
When a workman gets fifty dollars
; a week for ten weeks and then noth
ing for ten weeks, he never is as well
off as when he gets twenty-five dol
lars for twenty weeks. His standard
of living is automatically raised rfnr.
I ing the period of unusual prosperity
ana in tne period or depression it is
doubly hard for him to get "back to
normalcy," when, as a fact, he finds
he must get back more nearly to star
vation. Government investigations,
of course, are usually more or less
farcical, costly to the people and non
resultful, but it would be highly ben
eficial if the government could work
out some specific plan and back it
up by commandatory legislation that
would bring about a steadier labor
condition. In many cases the unions
have the country by the throat and
they do not seem averse to squeez
ing the puhlic windpipe. At the same
time the world's happenings point
v ith a warnins fineer to the fnllv nf
oppressive warfare on the men who
m tne manual lahor of the hour.
Certainly the man willing to work
should be reasonably assured of
steauy ianor.
The Coal Barons Sit Tight
The complacency of the coal oper
ators in the light of the coal strike,
bodes ill for the public next winter.
Were the operators suffering, they
would squeal so loud that their cries
would be heard from coast to coast.
Their silence indicates simply that
they have the situation in hand fi
nancially. In brief, it will be found
there is already mined and awaiting
higher prices, a supply of coal per
haps sufficient to take care of win
ter needs with a short market and
high cost to the public, but the black
diamonds will be carefully concealcl
until, the proper time comes. In the
meantime, the miners are to be
taught a lesson.
Every indication is that the winter
will see the delivery of a poor qual:
ity of coal in all towns and villages
with increased coal bills for the peo-
