also much less. These facts should augur d.
minished prices. But as we have seen prices
have advanced. Why is this! Monopoly, mo-
nopoly, railway monopoly! Five great trans
portation companies having possessed them
selves of the great anthracite region of Penn
sylvania, now put forth monthly bulletins of
prices. They prescribe the quantity to be
mined and the prices to be paid for the labor.
If the miners undertake to ''kick up a row"
about it troops are very properly sent to restore
quiet, but when the five great railways meet
in secret conclave to concoct means
for the oppression of labor and robbery Of con-
sumers there is nothing tangible appears which
the law can take hold of, and they progress
with impunity. But another year or two may
set us free, in great measure, from this coal
monopoly. The hard coke (natural) of Vir-
ginia and the camel coal Of the Kanawha val
ley are now within reach Of all the Atlantic
cities, and may soon be brought forward in
such quantities as to present a formidable
competition to the anthracite monopolies. The
Virginia hard coke, taken from the banks of
the James river, twelve to twenty miles above
Richmond, is pronounced by many to be su-
perior to anthracite for making steam. The
natural tendency Of the high prices Of the
present will be to bring forward the btu
minious Goals and cokes of Virginia and West
Virginia and Maryland to compete with an
thracite in market. Such a result will be of
incalculable advantage. The chief items in the
cost of all minerals are labor of mining and
transport. All improvements in the appliances
and machinery for handling and transport
inc Goals IN msrl-et should no eucoura Oed
Cars should be constructed of uniform pat
tern and gauge, in order to avoid the expense
and waste attending frequent transhipment
They may then be laden at the mines, and
dumped in the coal yards of the manufactures
or the cities. A little time and competition
will remedy the evil.

POLITICAL NOTES.

New Jersey politicians predict the election
of Governor Randolph to succeed Senator
Stockton.
The report that Ex-Governor Fairchilds, now
consul general at Liverpool, is a candidate
against Senator Carpenter for election to the
Senate from Wisconsin is untrue. Mr.. Car
penter's only opponent will be Ex-Governor
Wash6urn, and the chances are in favor Of
Mr.. Carpenters reelection.
Hon. E. A. Stevenson, Congressman-elect
from the Bloomington Qll.) district, says that
for Speaker he is in favor of Western man,
and one sound on the financial question from
his standpoint. There would seem to be a
preference for Hon. NJ. c. Kerr, of Indiana.
Mr.. Stevenson wants to engage with the West
ern members for a combined movement in the
interest of cheap transportation and low tariff.
Hon. W. P. Lynde, Congressmen-elect from
the Milwaukee district, favors Western man
for the Speakership, his preference being Hon.
NJ. c. Kerr.

SUFFRAGE IN THE DISTRICT

The question of whether, in the fOrma-
ton of the new government for the District
of Columbia, its citizens shall or shall not
be allowed a voice in its management and
control, is arresting the attention not only
of our people, but, if we may form an
opinion from our newspaper exchanges, of
a large number Of the people of the whole
country. AS a general rule, the Southern
Journals Of the Democratic faith and be-
lief are strenuously urging the adoption
of that form of government which shall
disfranchise those who were enfranchised
8 few years ago. They put it in this way:
Negro suffrage is admitted by the Radical
politicians to have been a failure in the
District of Columbia: therefore they pro-
pose to abolish it. This is right. 1t only
proves the truth of what We have been con-
tending for for so many years, that New
England fanaticism has been running the
country and especially the South. Now,
Why do they not do for the Southern States
what they propose to do for the city over
which they have exclusive control and
make this what it ought to be, white
mans government? This continent be-
longs to white men and white men should
rule it. If the Radical party will not do
this for the South, will not free it from the
letters of ignorance and negro supremacy
in which it has bound it, it will be the duty
of the Democratic party to do so when il
comes into power. This is the tone Of our
Soufhern evchau0eS
In answer to all this we deny that white
and negro suffrage has been failure in the
District. The argument is that under the
late form of government the House Of As
sembly elected by the people was so rotten
and corrupt, did so many outrageous
things, that the country has been disgraeed
by it and the city brOIgIt to the verge Of
destruction. Let us inquire into this
charge and see what the facts are. The
specific accusation against the Legislative
Assembly is that it involved the "tax-pay-
ers'' in ruin. The special act in which
this so-called ruin was, it is said, effected,
was, we presume, the four-million act
the act which appropriated four million
dollars for the improvement Of the avenues
and streets Well, that four-miIlion bill
was submitted to vote of the people be
oo--;e5F T rs introduced in the Assembly and

would permit As the matter now stands
those States are the equals of their North
ern sisters, but their constitutions, recon-
stIucted under the supervision of a Repub-
lican Congress, their pledges to support the
constitutional amendments, and their gen.
eral system of government, amount to
combination of political influences which
are directly antagonistic to the theory of
the Democracy. 1t is, therefore, certain that
under the remote contingency to which we
allude, another reconstruction on thorough
Bourbon, States Rights and decentralizing
basis would ensue. The very foundation
stones of the Southern States would be
overturned, and new political structures
would replace the works which followed
as the natural results of the war. Confusion
worse COMPOUNDED would prevail for a
time, out of which would grow a con-
dition of affairs calculated to ensure the
virtual Acknowledgement of the blacks and
the perpetuity of White League rule. Even
now the white Democrats Of the section
having more or less control over the educa-
tiOnal system-supreme control over pri-
vate educational institutions-the school
children and young men of the South are
taught the history of the war and of the
General Government from distorted and
maliciously reasonable textbooks, and it
seems TO be the object of Southern educa-
tiOnal leaders to inculcate ideas of loyalty
to the State, and feelings of hatred toward
the central power of the nation. Under
Democntic rule, this would be continued
and encouraged to such an extent that be-
fore another generation passes to its grave
the country would be ripe for a renewal of
the secession rebellion. Instead of being
united and reconstructed, the States of the
Union in which the Democratic party has
a majority would then be on the verge of
disintegration, and the noble structure, the
boast of our forefathers the most success
full experiment of self-government the
world ever saw, would again be rocked to
its very foundation with reasonable dis
sensions.
But, above and beyond all this, the
South would be given over to the exclusive
occupancy of bitter partisans, who would
drive from their midst loyal citizens from
other sections of the country, and the hope
of the Southern malcontents, ''the South
for Southrons only" would be fully real
lied. Free government, freedom of person
and property, and the right of travel and
communication between the States, would
be a mOckeTy, and the flag which now
floats to protect the citizens of our common
country everywhere within its limits would
trail in the dust, sham and a disgrace to
the American people. 1t would no longer
represent the idea of equal justice; but
when carried at all by the Democratic
rulers of the South would wave over auc-
ton blocks on which would be sold into
slavery the poor black victims Of race preju-
dice, and DISTINGUISHED and re-enslaved
millions would look up to it in vain for re-
lief from their thraldom.

DURING the last century the growth Of
Methodism upon the continent of America has
been something wonderful. Starting one hun
dred and eight years ago with five members,
under the lea1 of Philip Embury, this denOmi-
nation now numbers in all its various elassif-
cations three millions two hundred thousand in
the United States AVID Canada. The rest of the
world has about seven hundred thousand
more, making nearly four millions in the ag-
gregate. The increase in the Methodist Epis-
copal Church during the last ten years was
over half million on this continent. In this
organization there are now u bishops, so an
nual conferences, 10, S45 itinehnt preachers,

ONE of the great expressions of the poor is
the high price of fuel at this cold season.
Coal (anthracite) is dollar and half ton
higher than last year. And this, too, in the
face of the fact that labor (the chief expense

of the demand arising from manufactures is
