To-Day Tuesday, the great sale of
Anthracite coal takes place in New
York, with view Of regulating prices.
Last week the combination bursted and
each company, nominally at least, is left
to be law unto itself. It would seem
that the. coal companies have been the
victims oi the delusion that by pulling
hard enough aud long enough. and alto
gether they would hold themselves. in the
air by their bootstraps. No matter what
became OF the rest OF the world, they
would take care OF themselves by their
impregnable and united monopoly
This delusiou has been very gen.
eraI in business enterprise in this
country in the past few years. II has been
the theory Of nuuberleas combinations,
iralss.lniOns and associations, which
have each tried to emancipate cer-
tain business, craft or manufacture from
the influence Of the law Of supply and
demand, and it has always failed in Sc
we're crisis. The failure in the coal trade
is the repetition of failures in the petro-
lenn trade, in wheat corners, in inoppOr-
tune strikes, in the regulation Of insur-
snee, and many other instances. The
plain moral Of it is that we are all part
Of each other, We cannot lift ourselves of
from the earth by our suspenders, and
emsncipatc ourselves from the economi;
ca!tsnlencies Of the time; We must make
i. our policy to conform to them, not 10
defy them.

From these figures our neighboF' over
in Pea.e can see Just what they have got
10 do this fall. The Democratic ga gam ~, ~
Belmont county last fall was wholly due
to pease township. Had her Democratic
vote stood. as in 1874, instead oil being
increased aUr 300, Hayes would have had a
comfor,ablc .n majority OF 22c in the cOun-
~, instead Of being beaten by "A votes.
Much therefore rests on Pease township

FRoM all We can see and hear, it will
take very close and persuasive canvass
on the part Of the Hon, VIM. Lawrence
to materially affect Captain Danford's
chances for reelection in the Belmont
District, As for Belmont county; al:
though she gave wm. Allen a'slight ma
jority last fall, yet she took care at the
same election to send two Republicans to
the legislature. The Republicans car
ried the county in 1873 for .Noyes
over Allen and again in 1874 at
the Congressional election, by small
nAiOritiO,, and the same thing, and
something better, can be done this fall
with anything like proper effort. Our
immediate neighbors in Peasp township
have steadily increased their Republican
vote since 1878, but there wasa remarka-
bic increase in the Democratic vote last
iaIl, and the Republicans must look out
IN
i0F ln possible temperance this time.
In 1913 the township cast 5l7 Republican
vote, $50 Democratic votes, and 20 Pro.
hioltloH votes. In 1874 1t cast $50 Re-
publican votes, 80 Democratic votes;
and l5ProhibitiOn votes. 1t will be seen
mat the Democratic vote has suddenly
IN one year, almost doubled, and that
100 IN the face Of Handsome increase in
.ne Republican vote. The total vote in
1913 N% ~, in.1s74 it was 094, while
,i'' tall it'uddenIy shot up to 1896. This
'a'Se increase was pretty we'll divided
