KEYSTONE FURNACE, May 8, 1881.
To the Editor or sbe Standard:
Wh1ie at my Father sS=ause few DAYS ago, read
in your paper the opinion of sudge Johnson of Cali
fornia. while passing sentence upon a murderer who
was drunk when he committed sAe bloody deed: and
felt desire to seize my that who read your
esteemed paper may know that there Is at least one
woman who appreciates his courage in e&44>nncine
the liquor traffic: oh that there such men
in the world brighter day would dawn in lad
ere long, 1t is lack of with courage religion and
charity, which is the cause of land being cursed
with many of those dens of iniquity. By reading
the STANDARD from time to time have formed the
opinion that the editor is true friend of temperance
and think he like Judge johnson, would not for the
globe converted into precious be the owner of a
grog shop. What say you Mr.. Mackley? Methinks 1
hear you say, star be 1t from to lead into end
less misery.' The Judge says this traffic tolerated
by law is less a crime in the sight of God. oh no
you liquor dealers. when you must appear befor6
the Judgment Bar of the Most High, will tremble
when He shall pass the sentence of endless punish
ment upon you. How many crimes have been perpe-
trated through your Intoxicating cup? How many
wives have been made widows and homeless and
robbed of all the happiness they possessed? How
many mothers to-day are mourning for on the
brink of ruin? How many sisters are thinking with
bleeding hearts of dear brothers, who have left the
paths of virtue and usefulness, enticed by the
seller with honeyed smiles, and his sparkling wine.
What would give to-day if had 1t in my power to
put down intemperance? My right arm is of very
great value to me- but would willingly part with ii
if by doing would prevent the sale and of in
toxicating liquors. When, oh when will this des-
troyer of mems souls be vanquished All you lovers
of temperance let join together in prayer to God
that He may Danish this great from the face OF
the earth. Yours respectfully,
MRS, C, S, BAXTER,

Letter TO Miners.

OFFICE OF STATE INSPECTOR OF MINES,
COLUMBUS, OHIO, May, 1881.
10 the Mine Operators Mine Bosses and Miners of the
State of Ohio:
The 9th General Assembly made a number of i'm
portant changes in the mining law all of which re-
quire your earnest attention and consideration
The law amended, and it now stands upon the
statute books of the State requires the mine
every mine to the amount of air in circula-
tion at least week, and to report to the Mine
Inspector the first of each month blanks prop
erly filed, furnished by this Office, showing the
amount of air flowing through the mine. The miners
employed in any mine may also, if they deem it prop
err appoint committee to inspect the condition of
such mine ard report the facts the Mine Inspector
The simplest and most reliable method of ascer-
tanning the amount of wind in circulation in a mine.
is by Birams Anemometor. This instrument self
registers the speed of the current, and is easily
dersteod four-inch Anemometer reading to one
hundred feet is the cheapest and best for ordinary
measurements, such the mining law REQUIRES
Anemometors not manufactured in this country
and have to be imported. Any parties desiring to
purchase them will be furnished with the necessary
Information application to this office.
All mines governed by the statute, now required
to have artificial ventilation. When drift mining is
practiced furnace and air shaft is the cheapest venti-
latiDg power in For shallow shaft mines. ex-
haust fans are TO be preferred.
The statute as amended, further provides that no
working place. whether entry shall be driven
more than one hundred and twenty feet ahead of an
air course or break-through, and that break
throughs made the older ones shall be closed up
and made air tight. These are important changes,
which, in the of many mines, it will require
siderable labor and time to perfect and hence it is
urged that there be no delay in commencing the
needed improvements.
Section 6S7l has been amended to provide pen
aties TO all the provisions of the law. This section
takes effect and will be in force from July 1881
which strict compliance with the letter and spirit
of the mining law will be required by all whom 1t may
concern.
Accompanying this circular will be found copy of
the law, and l respectfully request that it be
posted up in conspicuous place at the mine that
all may it, Any parties desiring additional copies
of the law, will be furnished the same on application
to this Office. ANDREW Roy,
Inspector of Mines.

DEACON RICHARD SMITH, of the Gin
cinnati Gazette, has made the astounding
discovery that Senator Conkling refused
to support Garfield until promised the
control of the Federal patronage in New
York. Wherefore the Deacon proceeds
to blackguard, in his. peculiar manner,
Senator Conkling, Ex-President Grant
VIM. E. Chandler, and Stalwarts general
ly. When the Deacon throws mud at his
neighbors he should not gather it in his
own door-yard. Does the Deacon re-
member saying, in 1876, eff Blaine is NOM
mated, I'll be id if I'll support himr' :?

STANLEY MATTHEWS has at last been confirmed

for him, majority of the Republicans voted against
him.
THE friends of Judge Foraker, of Cincinnati, are
urging him a candidate for Lieutenant Governor.
He would doubtless make good race. We know he
is coed Judge, for he chose wife from the Jackson
County girls-being son-in-aw of Hon. II. S. Bundy.
THE 'iberal Republican, newspapers now divide
their editorial space about equally between abusing
the Salwarts and showing up the rascalitcs in the
Postofce Department during the administration of a
'iberal Republican" who placed rebel at the head
of that Department
THE richest thing yet gotten off by the fools who
are attacking Senator Conkling is the statement by
Jeremy Diddler named Thomas NJ. Nichol who acted
as Garfeld's Secretary during the campaign to the
effect that Garfield did not attend the Republican con-
ference New York last August in the interest of
harmony, the purpose of preventing Conkling
from defeating the Republican ticket.

THE men who are assailing Senator
Conkling most bitterly, freely admit that
all that Conkling demands of the Presi-
dent is that he keep his pledges A great
man should not permit the anxieties of
doubtful canvass to wiring from him
promises that he will not be able to full
fill after election. If the President
should permit himself to be inveigled in
to a war with Senator Conkling, he will
not only make his administration an ex-
ceedingly unpleasant one, but he will
certainly be succeeded by Democrat.
