PITTSBURGH, May 2l.-The Leader this
evening contains the following: At l:So
this morning the coal trade tribunal re-
sumed It's sittings at the Office Of the New
York and Cleveland Coal Company, on
Fifth avenue. Order being called the min.
utes OF the Saturdays meeting were read
and approved. Mr.. Mcintosh, in behalf
Of the committee on petitions, reported all
preliminaries as arranged and read the or
der OF the court authorizing the formation
Of the tribunal. The license was received
and filed among the papers OF the board.
Mr.. Dickson, OF the committee on rules, re-
ported that the time since their appoint
ment had been so short that no form or
rules had been arranged. He reported
progress and was granted more time. MIR.
schluederburg asked for the opinions Of
the other members in reference to the
number OF meetings allowed by law before
the umpire is called upon to decide. He
was inclined TO believe that the text OF the
Wallace act required three meeting before
calling upon the umpire, but at the same
time allowed any number Of meetings sub
sequently. Messrs. Winders and Mcln-
tosh coincided in that view, but Mr. Reis'
niger held that not more than three meet.
ings could be held under the act. -

AFTERNOON SESSION.

At two o'clock the coal trade tribunal
met in afternoon session. The first pro-
ceeding was the passage Of resolution
similar to the one offered by Mr.. Schultz
during themorning sitting, which provided
for the appointment Of two committees,
one to visit the lake markets and the other
to get data Of the local trade. The COM
mittee to visit lake ports is to get all infor'
nation procurable In reference to the price
OF coal, then the cost Of shipment, and in
fact get all data that may be OF use to the
tribunal in the investigation. Mr.. Winders
moved. that each side select two members
to serve on the committee on the lake
market and two to 90 on the committee for
local inquiry. The latter committee is to
have Tree access to all operations books in
pursuing their investigation.
A recess ot fifteen minutes was then
taken to allow each side time to appoint a
representative on the committee named.
Soon the miners reported. Their choice ior
the travelling committee were Messrs.
Abram Winders and Ebenigar Oliver.
| Their home mnittee is Msssrs. Steiner
and Lemmer. The other side then an.
nounced their committees as follows:
Home committee, Messrs. Schultz and
Schuelterber; travelling, Messis. Mcintosh
and Reisngvr. The four gentlemen dele.
gated to visit the lake regions will start to.
morrow afternoon for the scene Of their
labors, and the other committee will begin
work at home Immediately.
When all investigations are concluded
another meeting will be called at which the
solid work will commence. q
Nearly all the railroad coal miners re.
sumed work to-day at the three cent
mining rate, pending the settlement Of the
wage question by the operators and
miners trades tribunal. About 1000
minera returned 10 work.

THE IKOx sIrUArION
Carefully Examined from Pittsburgh
Standpoint, u

PITTSBURGH, May 2l.-An evening paper
says "on the supposition that in the
matter Of the June scale the worst will
come to the worst, and strike or lockout,
or whatever it may be called properly,
begin on the lst proximo, it is as well to
examine the situation with the view to the
discovery Of the exact degree that business
will be affected. The general impression
is that strike Of this nature signifies the
closing Of all the mills and many OF the
workshops, but fortunately it is not as bad
as this, and indeed has some balancing
features which 20 far toward broadening
faces elongated by the prospects.
In the first place all the mills are not
iron mills, and on the present difference
relates wholly TO iron only, those establish
ments engaged in pudding and rolling
iron are on the shutdown list. Swauk's
report for 1882 OF the iron and steel works
Of Allegheny county gives the number OF
iron and steel mills as So, including two
building. OF these u are Crucible steel
works, one cemented steel, three Bessemer
and eight open hearth steel.

TIE RESOLUTIONS.

After some time spent in informal dis
cussion Mr.. Schultz offered the following:
Res0lred, That committee be chosen to
ascertain the price ol mining in districts
coming in competition with Pittsburgh
railroad coal.
Second, To ascertain the cost Of trans.
portation Of said coal to market. 4,f,
Third-To ascertain the difference in
price in the markets between Pittsburgh
coal and that Of other districts, also to col
lect such matters pertaining to the home
trade as may be OF interest to the etribunal:
This resolution was talked over for some
time, and various suggestions were offered.
Mr.. Schultz thought that while one com.
mittee attends to the local trade Another
should visit the lake ports and those parts
Of the West Virginia coal helds whose pro.
duct comes In competition with Pittsburgh
coal. Mr.. Winders rather objected to have
ing the West Virginia districts taken into
consideration, as be held that heretofore
the plea had been that Pittsburgh's pfinci-
pal competition came from the Ohio dis.

The number OF hands given in the fore

Inasmuch as the number employed directly
at the several works Is only one Of the
factors in the general effect on local busi-
ness OF all these mills running, it is not
desirable to be more exact. The pay rolls
are Of more importance probably than the
number employed. and the industries e
no inconsiderable interest. A fair estimate
will place the number OF employees directly
aud indirectly concerned at about u, 1000,
and the monthly pay at little, II any, short
Of round million Of dollars. This does
not include the various workshops which
use the product Of these mills, but simply
the direct local effect OF their not being
affected by the scale difficulty.

MopILE's RoMANr1c HISTORY.

Mobile has rom 4ntic history, dating
back almost 200 years. 1twas there :hat
Bienville, the Frenchman, first established
the capital Of the Louisiana country-a re-
gion that then extended from the Gulf to
the great lakes. Its people, ancient and
modern, have lived under the flags OF four
nations-France, Spain, England and the
United States, and attempted not long ago
to live under still apother enc, the stars
and bars Of the @. 6. A. They seem now
to be well content to live under the stars
and stripes, and 90 in strong, as the
saying Is down here, for the
old flag and IN appropriation-espec.
tally an appropriation large enough
to dredge out OF their ship channel OF the
formidable obstacles which they placed
there to prevent the gallant Farragut from
sailing up their harbor, and which have
proved since the war to be sort Of avenging
Nemesis upon their prosperity. .Js
But leaving the, war and all its incidents
and consequences to one side, l have
nought to say but in terms Of praise OF
the courtesy and hospitality OF the good
people OF Mobile towards our visiting
party, most OF whom were Northern
people, and all OF whom expressed them
selves delighted with their visit.

Mobile is only one locality in the South
where trucking Is assuming great impor'
tance. Savannah Is still mora important
point. There were, as see stated, 1856, 13C
crates, and 4Sl ,s54 barrels Of vegetables were
shipped from that point last year to New
York, Baltimore, Philadelphia and Boston,
beside 81. .972 boxes and over 1000 barrels
Of oranges. IA E ~
ION the Jackson railroad, at distances oi
fitty to 200 miles above New Orleans, there
are number OF truck localities. There is,
for instance, Madison Station, where the
Mckay brothers have strawberry farms.
DR.. J. Il. Mckay told me that his net pro-
fits off OF 45 acres OF strawberries last year
were between 5000 and $1,000. He re.
ceived as high as so cents per quart for
some Of his earliest shipments to Chicago.
So extensive and important is the truck
business becoming at many points in the
South where they have railroads that 8
large employment 10 given to the colored
people, especially women and children, al
remuuerative rates, and uses are being
ionnd for land that heretofore had little
value. II has opened the eyes Of the
owners to new objects In life, taught them
better business methods, and essentially
bettered the condition Of the laboring peo.
pie in many communities. This is one ol
the blessings that railroads have conferred
upon the waste places Of the South, and
hence l sing, as at the outset Of this article,
the praises Of this age Of steam.

THE WORLDS PAIR.

Some time ago we took occasion to call
attention to the fact that the Worlds Fair
to be held in the city of New Orleans will
open there in December, 1884. We then
suggested that year would be short
time in which to prepare California exhi.
bits for that exposition. 1t is essential
that this State should be represented st
New Orleans by the very best class of ex-
hibits possible to be collected. They
should be numerous, too, and represent
every desirable portion of the State. II
we wait until spring before beginning to
devise ways aud means, we very much fear
it will be too late. As the Legislature does
not meet until after the exhibition opens,
the steps necessary TO secure to California
a representation at New Orleans must be
taken by the people in their individual ca
pacity. No State in the Union has so
vitally deep an interest in being largely
and well represented aa California. To
this end we suggest that the State Board Of
Agriculture, the Chamber of Commerce of
San Francisco, the Boards OF Trade of
Sacramento and Stockton, and any similar
bodies at Los Angeles, Oakland and other
points in the State, send committees TO
joint meeting for counsel to be held before
the holidays, to set the ball in motion. It
is quite certain that SO far as the power in
him resides the Governor Of the State will
give the scheme his aid and official coun-
tenance. 1t would be we'll for the Cham
ber of Commerce in San Francisco to issue
the call, and that very soon.

A FRANK sPATEMEEr.

The San Francisco Alta, which is Damo-
cratic, has the courage to say that it is
regresable that oolored citizens should re-
ceive the civil rights decision of the United
States Supreme Court with ill-advised
demonstrations of anger. In some of the
speeches made at the mass meetings in San
Francisco and other cities it is noticeable
that the Court is spoken of as if it were
legislative body instead of Judicial one,
or as if it could interpret the laws accord.
ing to its wishes instead of being compelled
to abide by precedents and settled canons
of Interpretation. An honest Court can
not consult personal or political prefer.
encas; it may be called upon to pronounce
unconstitutional statutes which, for politi.
cal reasons, majority of the members
would rather see upheld, and this is proba-
bly, the case in the civil rights decision"

CURED BY LAUGHTER. In treatise on
laughter Joubert gives curious instance.
a patient, being low with fever, and the
physician in attendance at loss as to how
he should produce reaction, had ordered a
dose of rhubarb, but after the medicine
had been prepared, fearing its debilitating
effects, the order was countermanded.
Not long after a pet monkey belonging to
the patient, that had been in the room all
the while, seeing the goblet. slipped slyly
up and touched it to his lips. The first
taste was probably novel, and he made a
comical grimace. Another sip, and he
got the sweet of the syrup. Aha His
vision frightened. He cast a glance
around, and then drank it to the bottom,
where he got the full strength of the
rhubarb. Mercy What a face he
made! The visage of the disgusted mon
key spoke volumes as he tried to spit out
the horrible taste, but finding that i'm
possible, he seized the goblet and hurled it
to the floor, smashing it into hundred
pieces. The scene was so ludicrous that
the sick man burst into q fit of laughter
that lasted until his nurse came in. And
when he tried to tell her he laughed again,
until he sank back exhausted in prOfuse
perspiration, which lasted until he fell
asleep. When he swoke, the fever was
broken and be recovered.

SOME PRACTICAL SUGGESTIONS.

Sacramento, by her system, is especially
adapted to carry out the non- partisan idea
in her municipal elections. Her balloting
is mostly done at times distinct and widely
separated from the State and national elec-
tions. There is no reason why party poll.
tics should enter into our city elections,
therefore. The example of Brooklyn, N Y,
should read to US Lesson. In that city
the leading men of all parties placed the
executive of the city in nomination re-
Gently without appeal to party machinery,
and no one doubts that Mr.. Low will be
reelected. His sole platform is conduct
Of city business according to business prin-
ciples no office-filliug as political reward !;
no receipt of recommendation for positions
under the city government, except the
party writing it consents that it may be
published, if necessary; the filing of mu-
nicipal offices to be done on the principle
of qualification. In Sacramento, pres-
sutly, we are to have an election for School
Directors. Now there is no sufficient rea-
son why either the Republican or the DEM
ocratic parties should concern them
selves about this election. 1t can
advance the interests of neither. 1t
is to be held for non. salaried offices
offices that should not be filed by political
inourables nor be made hospitals for ward
defendants. No man should be elected
School Director who has to acknowledge
the power of ward ring or a political
boss in order to secure either nomination
or election. It is not too much to say that
no man should be elected to such an office
who calls to his aid any political machinery
to secure the position. As rule, such
Offices should seek the men. A School
Director should not be chogen from among
the men who wish to use the office as
stepping stone to other positions Ambi
tion for Office should be disqualification
for Directorship. We assert it as a fact
that school interests invariably take harm
when the department is used as round in
the ladder of political advancement. We
want for School Directors men who have a
good English education, are fairly well
read at least, are made competent by ex-
perience and study to conduct the educa.
tional interests of the cspital city of the
State, and who have deep personal inter
est in the advancement of the community.
Whoever offers for the position ought to be
able to prove his educational qualification,
and that he understands our educational
system. Whoever is presented for the po-
sition should be named by citizens, ire
specsive of party methods. Political man
agement is not called for in school elec-
tions, and now is good time to place it in
retirement until other than municipal af-
fairs are to be considered.

A NOVEL ISSUE.

Governor Butler is a humorist, and we
cannot but admire his wit. The other day,
while speaking in Music Hall, Boston, he
said that few days before the Republi-
cans had called into that hall every one
opposed to Butler. We have called into
this hall every one who is resdy to sustain
Butler. This is the sole issue, distinct,
clear, we'll defined and made a personal
ISSUE" The Governor is in sense correct.
So infamous have become the Butlerian
meshods and doctrines that the issue is
very nearly one like that he defines. But
then il goes beyond his personality, and in
wolves decency and indecency, not only in
Massachusetts, but wherever such as But.
Ter present themselves for the suffrages Of
the people.

under claim of right by the defendant, for
the period of five years. In the case before
him, no such right, he says, was set up
that each year more and more of the land
was covered, and that if relief should be
refused, and the acts of the defendant per-
mitted for the future, tire plaintiff would
soon cease to have any beneficial use of
the land. There is no ambiguity about
these statements, and there is no possibil-
ity of misunderstanding the Court, as is SO
often the case where exceeding long
opinions are iudulged in.

mine about two miles from the town of Farweather,
Spokane county, Washington Territory. iersat
many persons hlye left Cheney aud the surrounding
country for the new discovery, Experienced quartz
men pronounce the mines very rich in silver.
Claims are being rapidly located, and mining

large number of citizens in Spokane county,
Washington Territory, are aroused over the pro-

strong opposition to the bill now before the Terri

bill has already passed the Council but owing to the
strong opposition 1t is doubtful about its passing

lr is becoming every day more and more apparent
that the true policy in the administration of munich
pal aiairs is the non-partsan policy Politics and
municipal administration should be divorced. The
city business should not be conducted according to
political methods. Cities should administer their
domestic affairs without regard to plrty platforms
or party candidates. State and National politics
viii be bettered by their separation from municipal
