TINE MINEH.


We are pleased to learn that the Miners
Of Illinois propose to present testimonial
to the Hon. John Hinchcliffe, Of Belle
vile, in recognition Of his eminent services
in their behalf during the last term of the
Legislature, in securing the passage Of the
Ventilation Bill. As before stated, Mr..
Hinchcliffe's claims have been prominently
brought forward in connection with the
nomination for Governor on the Labor Re
form ticket and we certainly know Of no
man whom the ADVOCATE would Import
with more pleasure.
The workingman's advocate. [volume] (Chicago [Ill.]) 1864-1877, 1872-06-08

In our last issue we gave the testimony
of Mr.. N. s. Bouton and number of his
employees, in his suit against several men,
bers of the Iron Mo,ders' Union of this
city, because they had the manhood to re-
sist his unjust and arbitrary exActons.
This week We present the testimony for the
defence, and ask the readers Of the ADvo-
CATE to carefully peruse The same, 10 that
they can form an intelligent opinion a. to
the merits or justice Of the case. For
years we have advocated the repeal Of q
law which can convict any class of men for
using moral suasion," believing that
some day, absurd though it ia, an employer
would be found who would have the fool
hardness, or rather the heartlessness, to
avail himself Of it, and events have proven
the correctness Of this opinion. While we
have no fault 70 find with the rulings of
Justice Banyon, we believe that when the
case is presented to an intelligent jury,
and all the circumstances attending the ar
rest Of these men are brought to light, that
the result viii be an honorable acquittal.
In this connection we desire to say q few
words to our union mechanics irrespective
of their calling. The molders have inter-
eSts in contesting thin case which they do
not share in common with their brother
mechanics. The operation Of the law ia
applicable to al. Thar defeat means the
ultimate defeat Of every trades unionist in
the State, unlsss the Lasr . repealed. To Se-
cure that object the energies Of every me
ehsnie should now Be bent and fortu-
nately under the new constitution, under
which our future representative will be
elected, this result can easily be secured
The representative system will enable the
mechanics of Chicago TO elect, beyond
peradventure, u majority Of the representa-
tives for Cook county, and what iSapplica-
BILE to Chicago IN equally applicable to Pso-
ria, Quincy, Springfield, Decatur, Joliet,
bloomington, and score Of other towns in
our State, provided they have the courage
and manhood to avail themselves Of the op- !
portunity placed within thsir grasp.

A PATENT has been issued for q process
of making paper from the California tule,
known in botany as ScirPlGs lGcaastTles. A
fine pulp Is produced from this, capable Of
ana printing paper. This discovery has
been carefully tested by experts in the pa
per business in this country and Europe,
who are satisfied that it furnishes q most
economical paper stock, which is destined
to come largely into use. The process of
reducing the reed to pulp is very simple and
cheap, and it is believed the discovery will
be of great value to California. In Europe
another variety of lake reed is already be-
ing so largely used in the manufacture Of
paper that the prices of certain sorts have
been reduced, and newspaper into which
this material enters, il now Icing imported
into California from Europe cheaper than
it can be brought there from the East

The manager Of furnace in Prussia,
finding himself without fuel, resolved to
keep the furnace alive N best he might.
He began ut once to reduce the charge of
iron ore to one-half, keeping alb the while
the usual charge of coke, and after the fur
mace was thus filled the blast was cut Off,
and all apertures were closed As air tight a.
possible and watched carefully so Tor more
than ninety daysof anxiety. A regular sup
ply Of fuel being again secured after that
time, tuyeres, hearth and top were reopen
ed, the hot blast let on, and twelve hours
later the first clear cinder made its appear
ance flowing over the well-stone, to the
great delight of all concerned.

GS- A lady in town not thousand
miles away was considerably annoyed by
hens who picked the loose plastering from
the wall, So one morning while washing
dishes, she thought she heard her fowls
pecking as usual, and dish cloth in hand,
she hastened to the door, and giving her
rag a warlike flourish, she uttered a tre-
mendous "shoo-oop Imagine her dis
may at beholding, not the hens but %
stranger, who, after wiping from his face
the drops of dishwater with which he had
been sprinkled, said in a perfectly calm
voice, "Well, mum, if you've got any more
spare rags, should like to sell you some
tin-ware for 'em.''
