vance in wages. Our out of town
reports and the items show what is
going on, in this particular variety
of fuel. 1t is q growing trade and
with a moderate margin of profit,
would be a valuable one to engage
in. Locally there is little doing in
soft coal beyond filling orders taken
some time since, and the few tran
sient orders taken do not average
much better figures than were real
lied for the large blocks of COAL
Coal Trade Journal.
There is nothing new to report.
Cars are scarce in the Clearfield dis
trict, and vessels are in little better
supply. Small orders are coming in
from number of distributing points
in anticipation of the close of nsvi-
cation.
CHICAGo.-In the market for BIZ
luminous Goals, the situation is some
what changed since our last review.
The labor troubles in the Indiana
Block region have been adjusted by
an accession to the demands of the
miners, who are again at work and
receiving one dollar per ton. Some
of our shippers of Indiana Block
have already begun to receive con-
signments, and by the middle next
week coal from this district will be
coming forward as before the strike.
The inquiry for Illinois Goals contin-
ues fair for the better grades, al
though not so active as before the re-
sumption of operations in the Indiana
Block mines.
BosToN.-The bituminous situa-
tion is wholly unchanged. Manu-
featuring corporations may be suf-
fering for water, but they need not
be in want of coal. Plenty can be
had at low figures, quoting $3.50
f. o. b. at Baltimore as somewhere
near bottom. The reported scarcity
of cars in the Clearfield region occa-
sions no inconvenience Mt this end
that we learn of.-N. Y. Coal.

II POLITICAL LETTER.

WALHIHGToN, ID. C., Oct. Is, 1888.
To the MINING JOURNAL
From all that can be seen or heard
at this distance the coming political
fight in your county must be close
and doubtful one in its results. On a
square party vote it has been republi-
can for some years. The presidential
contest of 1880 established this fact.
In this campaign, however, the chances
OF success for the democracy are at
least equal. They have the advantage
OF an increased registration and coun-
ty ticket has been offered them which
meets with more appreciation than has
been accorded of late years. Their
State ticket is nneyceptionable, headed
by statesman of experience and abil-
lty, and one, too, who has taken a
strong and advanced position in behalf
OF the rights of labor and the privi-
leges OF workingmen. The Ohio cleo
ton must also have an exhilarating ef-
feet upon the democratic forces, as a
decisive triumph was gained in that
State.
1t appears that two democrats are
allowed to compete for Mayoralty hon
ors in Baltimore. Latrobe aspires to
fourth term and many are exceeding
ly tired of seeing him around" He
is mediocre in every particular except
mastachioS, and has made himself OBJ
noxlous to the laboring classes, but has
strong and wealthy backing among the
mercantile and railroad interests of the
city. His competitor, J. Monroe Heis-
kell, Esq, is quite a young man, a de-
scendant, as his name indicates. of
President Monroe, of Virginia, and a
gentleman of fair ability, firm resolu-
ton, independence and integrity.
Intriguing for the next presidential
nominations will soon be in order in
both parties. Gen. Arthur has tbe
call up to date in the republican party,
and in the democratic no one seems to
boom up in advance of the field. The
talk about Butler is all bosh. Thurman
ought now to be brought to the front.
as he is certainly closer to the people
than any democratic statesman in the
Union. Hendricks seems to be barred
out on account of his unfortunate CON
nection with Tilden in 1876, and vet
his superiority to Mcdonald is so evil
dent that Indiana will in all probabili-
ty be passed by when the selections
are made. Cleveland has done nothing
as governor of New York to distinguish
himself, but 72 votes in convention is
a big lever with which to move things.

Eastern Tieaos oftHe Coal Trade.

New YoRK.-The bituminous coal
trade continues in about it's former
volume, so far as tonnage is concern
ed; on every side we see and hear
of large production. As to the
price obtained, this is year of low
figures on bituminous coal and pres
ent figures show no material change
from those of the early part of the
year except where advances in wages
have been given. There is a general
report of steady work, and prices
paid for digging are now very re-
munerative to the laborer. 1t is
found, as matter of course, that the
men crowd the operators at this time
Of the year, and the thin margins at
which contracts were taken are
melting away this ought to lead to

The RED Book FoR PENNsYL-
vANIA.-The B. and 0. Red Book for
Pennsylvania, 1883, is out and is COM
plete political textbook of the state
as can be made. 1t goes farther into
details than other publication of this
description, inasmuch as not only
result of past elections is given, but
the loss and gain of each party i'll
each county and district is figured
out, together with total vote of
county, district and state. In the
new edition just received, tabular
statements are introduced of the last
two state elections, Congressional and
Presidential elections, the side notes
adding such information as to rem
clear comprehensive the knowledge
of the past politically. A particular
ly interesting table is that devoted
specially toa comparison of Pattison's
vote with Stewards, Hoyt's and Dills',
and Il good many people will just at
this time study with more than ordin-
airy interest the "might have beens'
Of the combined Republican vote last
year. The state edition is larger than
usual this year, owing to the intro
duction of IA complete register of the
United States Senate and House of
Representatives of the Forty-eighth
Congress by states and districts, ar
ranged so as to enable comparison
with the last Senate and House. full
register of which is also given. The
reading matter throughout the book,
even though devoted to demonstrate
ing the advantages of the B. and o.,
is rather spicy, especially that of
emi-philosophical turn. Altogether
the Red Book is decidedly cheap ut
the price, which is simply the trouble
of writing for it to G. X. Lord, Balti-
more. Nothing gotten up in the ad-
vertising line equals it in extent of
valuable information furnished, and
such matter us is devoted to the road
is by no means obtrusive.

The term, ..taffy," in an official

THE term, "taffy," in an official
paper is rather unfortunate. But
not so much so that it should have
called for the following crushing
sarcasm from the Cumberland Times !:
The grand jury of the October term,
1883, should be handed down to pos
terity as the ''taffy" grand jury.
"And is it character you want 7
Bedad, I'll sell it ye by the bushel."
The officers referred to in the re-
port really deserved more applause
than they received. Hence, the term
was designed to confirm the sincerity
of the little compliment bestowed.
"Honor to whom honor" ETC., brother
Taylor, is an answer to that sweet
stanza
MAN wants but little here below,
Nor wants that little long,"
1t may not be with you exactly so
But It's so in the song.

"WHY Nor AVOID SPECIAL
NAMES w-The Coal Trade Journal
hits the nail on the head in the fol-
lowing article:
An esteemed correspondent in Chi
cago writes:
The smithing coal trade of this city and the
west, is becoming somewhat mixed as far as
names are concerned 1t is pity each region
can't be designated by some name and take
out patent right for the same. Can / sell
you some smithing coal?" "Well what coal
do you handle 2" We can give you 'Bloss-
burg" Cumberland" Piedmont" Cum
berland- Blossburg," Piedmont Blossburg,"
''Sonman-Blossburg," etc, etc.
The bulk of the smithing coal now
being shipped to this market is from
the Cambria Co., Pa, mines, and this
coal does not need to be sold under
any other name than its own. Why
not Cambria smithing coal, or Gone
maugh," as the mines are all on or
near that river.
How can, you designate each parti-
cular mine in making sales--as Aurora,
Arglye, Euclid, Stineman, Martin, Son
man, Lilly's, etc. One general name
would fill the bill, and itwould be much
better than saying Cumberland and
Blossburg.
So far has this thing gone that
many consumers have absorbed an
idea that the coal of certain mine
is far better than the product of an
adjoining mine, when there is abso-
lutely no difference. 1t would be
far better to drop the misnomer,
"Cumberland," now copied so widely
in the nomenclature of counterfeit
products, and call all our coal by
its true designation, "Georges Greek

"IN my airly days." said the old
man as he shovelsd the coal into an
uptown school house basement, "they
didn't depend on no coal to keep us
school 'uns warm, / kin tell you."
"What did they use ?" asked boy
near by. A dreamy, retrospective
look passed over the aged mans
wrinkled face, and he sighed as he
responded; "They used birch my
boy-birch."

n Long Stride to Make.-The Os-
ceola Reueille says "the prospects now
are that the amount sent forward at
the end of 1888 will have reached fully
10000 tons, if not more" When
we reflect that our region, now over
5000 tons ahead of Clearfeld, connot
possibly hope to reach 2,500,OO0 tons,
it is fair to presume there are some
sanguine people over there. To real
ize the prospects" there must be some
long and rapid Looping on the home
stretch.

BITUMINoUs COAL FIGUREs.-The
Coal Trade Journal says "the statics
of the bituminous coal tonnage for
thenine mouths ending with Septem-
ber are ofinterest and value. 1t will
be seen from these figures that the
Cumberland region is regaining its
old trade and the districts that took
portion oft last year, during the en-
forced idleness from March 18th to
Sept. 1st, are now falling back.
Broad Top, East Broad Top, Clear
field, Barclay, Allegheny Mountain
and even the Pittsburg district sent
coal to trade that had been regular
users of Cumberland The Meyers
dale region also took say 100000
tons of Cumberland trade last year.
Clearfeld region took large slice,
but as they have gained new trade
this year, the full extent of the change
from one coal to another is not so
readily discernible."
Frostburg mining journal., 1883-10-20

Work IN OHIo.-Business in the
Hooking Valley has frightened up,
and all available cars are loading as
fast as sent in. The Ohio Central
is running full-time at its mines at
Corning and at Buckingham. The
nine mines of the Ohio Central are
putting out about 230 cars a day, the
output for September being over
5000 cars, or nearly 100000 tons.
The work ON its No. 10, new open
ing, is pushed vigorously. This new
mine promises to be the best opening
yet worked by the Ohio Central Com
pany. 1t is located one and half
miles east of Shawnee. 1t is Il drift,
and is in a tract of 1900 acres, 700 of
which are included in this mine.
Every thing about the mine is done
in the most substantial manner, and
the latsst improved conveniences and
economies will be introduced. Mr..
Thomas Corcoran, the General Su-
perintendent of the Ohio Central
Company's mines, estimates that the
opening will furnish 800 tons of
lump day for twenty-five years.
The track on the railroad branch of
this mine is completing. and the com
pany hopes to begin shipments soon.

Improcements.-Mr. F. C. Beall has
erected variable sign. Passing up
Main street the traveller reads,
"Stoves" in front Frank C. Beall,"
and looking rearward Hardware"
The order is reversed going down
street. Under the sign, just over the
entrance, is hung beautifully
bronzed "bell," suggestive of the
name of the proprietor. The sign was
painted by Mr.. James H. Hawke,
who is a specialist in that line. He
also painted similar sign for Mr. d.
G. Percy, which has been up several
years.
Mr.. Jehn Chambers having pur-
chased the stock of Elias Logsdon has
vacated his old stand. Before doing
so, he took hold of Mr.. Logsdon's
rooms and rehabilitated the whole es-
tablisment. New wall paper, new
shelving, new paint, ETC., have trans
formed a dingy place into one of the
brightest rooms in town. In the
change he has gained more room
for groceries, and more comfort for
customers. The lunch room will be
continued on larger scale.
$50 Young to Die."-A kind lady
handed us yesterday the following
beautiful poem as appropriate to the
death of Willie Oder. 1t appears in
Demorest's November Magazine under
the caption above quoted:
So young to so from out life's golden splendor,
Into the darkness of land unknown!
So young to leave earth's friendships, true and
tender,
To enter on an untried world alone!
So hard to feel that heart and flesh are failing
Day after day, with no sure helper near
TO know that prayers and tears are unavailing,
Though wrung from anguished hearts l hold
so dear.
1t may be that the far-off Golden City
Is fairer far than e'er dared to think
And yet-and veto cruel Death! have pity,
And clasp me gently as | near thy brink,
Where, shrinking, shorn of strength, l stand
and shiver,
Fearing to press thy cold, dark waves-alas
How dare cross the deep, mysterious river,
The which no mortal ever can repass?
Wait-wait, 0 Deathl till some Overwhelming
sorrow
Shall leave its traces upon heart and brow !!
Wait till the anguish of some dread tomorrow
Shall bid me call for thee-but, 0, not now /! |
Not in the radiant flush of life's fair morning,
When love and hope light up my eastern sky, |
While earth grows sweeter with each days |
glad dawning-
Not yet-not yet am too young to die
But if in thy best mansions, holy Father,
There is one place alone can fill,
Be with me when Deaths awful shadows
gather
Across the Silent River, dark and chill
Within Thy sheltering arms, o blessed
Keeper!
Fold me away from every fear and doubt
For, 0, the darkness will grow deep and deeper
As the glad Light Of my young life goes out
