Sl+(lisrrllanp,

We are pleased to notice the fact
that our oft repeated counsel to the
miners to organize has at last had the
desired effect, and that organizations
have been effected in Carbondale,
ARCHIBALD and number OF other
mining towns in This vicinity. This
is as it should be. The corporations
have been very successful in obtaining
extort;onate rates from consumers and
keeping The miners on half time by
combining. Why should not the
miners also combine and make an ef.
tort to impress upon the corporations
the fact that they have some rights
which must be respected Scranton

A FICKLENODY FOR SHAMUS
MACCALLUSIER.

Friend Mac, see you've some pluck left,
Though tickle at the core;
You've dragged me hard DER stubbly sward
And lift me bleeding sore.
Langsyne the Scots wore pettlcoat1
AS high as their knees;
Those 'maphrodites, with belted kytes,
Ambushed among the trees.
Sometimes for fame single Mac,
Perhaps a score or so,
Would take the field with sword and shield
To fight the Saxon foe.
But what of that, poetic sire?
Was rashness valor true?
Should grave presumes and non de plumes
Be ostraclsed in view?
Your chivalrous mode is faulty;
The past will tell you so;
BY fences long and redoubt $ strong
We baIiled every foe,
Why shonld we herald honored names
In Pharisaic style;
Where motives good arc understood,
And free from current guile
Those scenes of horror and dl gust,
Where strychnine sopcs are used,
You've pictured well as topers he'll,
Where looms have teen abused
Why hoist your name and pedigree
AS ocean craftsmen do?
Your wealth on board may i'll afford
To pay your frcightage through
You've spraggcd the Whole machine, you
say;
Say-what may this imply
| hardly think it means to drink
Whenever you get dry.
Quaint, rythmic Mae, you're wanted back;
They miss you every pay;
If your changed coat is worth great
Then wear it every day.
Since you despise our social tics
l think I'll steek my gab
I'm fairly through, so now adieu,
I'm friendly, plain
ROUGH RAE.

Now what's to be seen, Willie,
AT Cumberland?
You're able now to tell us,
| understand.
Is Mountain Que en-" doomed to die /?
What is her crime?
Is there chance to save her?
Now is the time.
Are feudal corporations
Destined to Stay
The flower OF Aleganyr
What do you say?
Are you blindly looking on3
That is a shame
Do you say you are blamelessp
Then who's to blame
Is our monumental State
Rudely bereft
OF statesman to guard her?
Have they all left?
Shall we sleep among burglars,
And rub our eyes,
While starving humanity
Need life's supplesS
Have soulless corporations
More harm to do
We want to know the worst, sire
Such is our due.
Shall we fill up the ditch, sir,
And make fish.ponds?
Shall we further run in debt
To pay of bonds?
Shall we murder I'LL the mules
And save oat straw?
Or feed the humble boatmen
On corporate law?
The boats we must chop, Willie,
Or they will rot;
And pension off some plants,
Useful to vote.
Ifyou are still alive, sir,
Tell US the news;
Deign TO write or make speech;
Do not refuse.
Allegany longs to feel
Peace and content;
Her incorporate connections
Need big comment
