Instead of gétting down t6 the basic facts of and getting adjust- ments i aceord theréwith while pro-i ductiofi continues strikes are not only| making conditions bad in the cosl fields but they are having that detrfmental effect upon industrial activitiés which is affecting the entive country. The présent aim must of course be to bring about the mining of coal in suf- ficlent quantfties to overcome a shortage during the winter, but there is also the need of setting a commission at Wwork to determine once and for all it such is possible what reorganization there ought to be In the coal industry, what inju: tices eéxist for those directly lnlerened,( and wherein the consuming public i3 be- ing unjustly treated whether it be; through the demands of the operators or the miners. , There may be no reason for confusing the work of overcoming present strike conditions and that which would be set in motion and done by the coal commis-| slon which the president proposes to name, but it i{s important that there should be no greater delsy than mneces- sary in getting underway that govern- ment agency which must have for its object the straighteninig out of eondi- tions which ought riot to exist in the coal industry regardiess of where the re.. ‘sponsibility for tHem rests, The coal Industry has long needed just such tréatmient as it is proposed to ac- coniplished through the promised com- mission. FOR UPHOLDING LAW AND PEACE. When the governor of North Carolina miners to return to work and to pro- vide the necessary protection for tHose who are willing to work, declared that he was opposed to urging the miners to return it appears that the situation in his state is that there is but ome coal mine and there are but about 50 non! unfon miners employed. The situation] in that mining district cannet be ex-! pected therefors to develop any great! amount of elther trouble or ecoal. But the most significant part of that governor's feply was that “There will be no troubls in North Carolina ia up- holding the law in thls or &ny other cons troversy.” When a goverfior takes that few he is filling the office of governor the way that he is expected to do. Governor Morrison takes the view that such economic battles should be| allowed to go to the finish, but he is| determined to “uphold the law and keep! the peace and protect every would-hn: worker, unfon or non union, from men- ace, insult 4nd violenee,” That, it is to be realized, 1s just what the president was asking for. Protec-i tion for those who are willing to work! and who have a right to work Is only what should be expécted, and it would| certainly be a strange wituation should the head of a state government fail toj recognize his duty In that respect. North Carolina’s hasn't gotten so fas off the source of safety and sanity as was, in- dicated by early reports. EDITORIAL NOTES.

Some years ago, shortly before the pset’s death, a writer in The Century Magazine, discussing the poem, made the Tfemark that “the story will, perhaps, live, as Mr. Whittier has boasted, until # gats beyond the reach of corrsction.” To this Mr. Whittier repiied in a note to the editor of the magazin “Those who kflow me will bear wit- ness that T 4m not in the habit of boast- ing of anything whatever, least of ail congratulating myself upon the doubtful statement ‘outliving the possibility of I made no boadt of the kind imputed to me. The poem of Barbara Frietchie was written in good faith. The story was no invention of mine.. It came to me from sources which I resarded as entirely reliable, “The incident of Barbara Frietchle and the fiag was published in newspa- pers and had gained public credence in Washington and Marylegl before my poem was written. I had no reason to doubt its accuracy then. and I am still constrained to belfeve that it had foun- dation in fact. It I thought otheérwise I should not hesftate to express it.” ‘Where did Whittier get his faets? It has been proven beyond a doubt that Stonewall Jackson and his men never passed Barbara’s home; consequently he could mot have ordered his regiment to “Halt! Pire!” etc. The story that sugsested the ballad to Whittier eame to him from Mrs, Emma D. E. N. Southworth, of Georgetown, D. C., the well-known novelist, whose ac- quaintance he made while he was cor- responding editor of The National Era. him the following note: “When Lee’s army occupied Freder- | iek the only Union flag displaved in the clty was held from an attic window hy Mrs, Barbara Frietchie, a_widow lady, aged ninety-seven years, Such was the story that went the rounds of the Wash- ington papers last September.” The southern army Is supposed to t6 the story, on the 6th of Septémber. The Confederate army evacuated the town on the 1ith and the Union troops under General Burnside entered on the 12th. “Theén” to quote the letter again, “flags of all sizes and from every con- ceivable place were displaved. But as for the old lady, she dled a few days af- ter, some thought of joy at the presence 6f the Unfon army. and some that she died of exeitement from the ‘lionization’ she regéived. This {5 the whole story as Mr. Whit- tier had it when he wrote the ballad. To one of the many friends who asked him it Barbara was a myth, he answered in 2 letter, dated October 19, 1890: “T had a portrait of the good old Barbard from the saintly hand of Dorothea Dix. whose lite is spent in works of love and duty, a & cane from Barbara's cottage. me by Dr. Sterner, of the Maryland ate. Whether she did all that my poem and true woman, and T followed the ac- count given to me in a private letter and in the papers of the time.” IN THE PUBLIC EYE couldn't resist the opportunity to try his hand at a little personal publicity, ‘but bad advertising is 18 worse than none at all. President Lewls says they cannot mine coal in Michigan without asking the United Mine Workers, Governor Groesbeck, like some other governors, seems to think otherwise.
