THE MONARCH MINERS.

The Statesman has received a letter
signed by the employees Of the Mon
arch Company, Atlanta, III which they
approve of, and say they are fully sat-
isfed with, the rule lately adopted by
the Superintendent requiring them to
strip to the skin four times day and
be searched. The letter was undoubt-
eddy dictated by the same power that
enforces the rule. Men are liable, by
stripping during all kinds of weather
to have their health broken beyond
reparation. Such acts are tyranncal
and would not be tolerated if the mi
ners could find employment elsewhere,
but there is nothing else they can get
to do, and the Superintendent, know.
ing this, uses them as the inhuman
master would slaves. Some of the
men would not submit to it and quit
work, and the fact having reached
the WORLD through atlanta Kate,
Tip Lantiss gets on his high horse and
commits himself by showing his rage
Such tyrannical rules men don't like
and have just right to profess
against. Taking advantage Of othel
peoples disadvantages is one of the
worst traits of a man, and exhibits
his true character. The only way fol
the men in the Monarch mine to have
their rights as free men respected il
for them to stop work and force MI
J Lantis to at least reasonable terms
7 and we hope that for their future pre-
; lection and the protection of thos
/ who may hereafter be employed there
, that they will.

WE believe that the poor mining
season just coming in'is an advantage
to the country. More prospecting
will be done for quartz, and th' out
look is favorable for some rich discov-
cries. Two or three more quartz
mines, giving employment to eighty
or one hundred men the year round
would be of more substantial benefit
to the Basin than all the placer mines
we have, as they can only be success
fully worked two or three months in
the spring at most.

SENATOR HowE-The Oshkosh North
western of the 14th contains the follow
ing reference to Senator Howe and his
prominence in connection with the Su-
preme Bench:
''The Chicago Times said that the
Wisconsin delegation had left Washing
ton and given up all hopes of securing
Senator Howe's appointment to the Su-
premeBench. Ex-Congressman Sawyer
arrived home last evening from Wash
ington, and in brief conversation on
the subject to-day, said that such was
not the case, but on the contrary, the
Wisconsin delegation left Washington
feeling that Mr.. Howe's chances were
as favorable as anybody's. Mr.. Sawyer
had an interview with Mr.. Hayes last
Saturday, and subsequently with Secre-
tary Sherman and although it might not
bewell timed to put on public record the
reply President Hayes made to him, it
may be said that Secretary Sherman
gave assurance that when the nominal
ton should be announced It would be
very acceptable to the people of Wis
cOnsin. 1t is limited that there is shorty
TO be another vacancy IN the Supreme
Court which will enable the President
to accommodate both sections of the
country, as far as geographical consider
atoms are concerned"
