Chance——
The Miners Forgotten.
(Boston Transcript.)

It. is pointed out that before the
strike began there was much public
sympathy for the miners. but now
the English people Its thinking less
and less of the men in the mining
industry. Their thoughts turn to the
maintenance of the service essential
to the support of the necessaries of
life. Such sympathy for the miners
‘es they may have had is wiped out
by resentment at.a condition which
means hardship and perhaps cutler—
ing for millions of people.

France remains today as it has
