It is a matter of some curopity to see wnat tne su preme court will do in tuis case. They have held once that the cldb3 could sell but will they do so again? Times and men change alike. Net only the country newspapers but those of the cities make some awful blunders. Today's ' World Herald is a living example of this. The leader of the first page states that the government is "Ready to Demand Reparation From "the Venezuelan Government" for the execution of two Amercan citizens by the government of Nicaragua. Just why reparation would be de manded by this government of the Venezuelan government Is not clear and the body of the dispatch does not bear out the headlines.

This means serious trouble ln that sec tion. A large proportion of the miners are foreigners with scant knowledge of American ways and they may be found very troublesome and hard to handle. The Hearst Interests are largely predominant in the mines and it Is difficult to re concile his well known Baying re garding labor with the action of the managment of the mines.
