AN APPEAL FOR AID.
Powderly Asks for Help for the Lehigh
Valley Miners.

| SCRANTON, Pa, March 3.-Grand Master
| Workman Powderly has issued the follow
ing appeal in behalf of the Lehigh valley
miners:
six months ago the miners of the mid
die coal fields Of Pennsylvania stopped
| work IN obedience to the command of
| those whom they had authorized to act
for them, in securing just recognition of
| their right to a fair days pay for a fair
days work. They did not stop, as has
been too often said, at the command of
the labor agltator or the idle vagabond
| who pose as the cause of all of the
ills which all the laboring flesh is heir to-
They stopped work after they had given
up hope OF securing even the barest
| necessities of life. Their condition today,
after SIX months idleness, is scarcely any
more to be deplored than when they quit
work last September When the strike
along the Reading road took place these
| men were for time forgotten; they were
overlooked in the excitement of the hour,
but they never f1inched or murmured
| They quietly waited for the contest to end
with their brothers before they
would again ask for assistance
The time has come again to
remind the order of the knights of Labor
and workingmen generally that they owe
debt to the men who are drawing the
attention of the world to the state Of
servitude in which the slaves of the Key
stone state are forced to exist. Work at
wages paid to them before the strike, will
enable to defray the every day expenses of
life: They could not decently support
their families on the wages they received
and they cannot do it now. They require
help. They struggle not at the request of
a demagOgue or a few leaders but are en-
gagged in this battle as one man for
they voted to strike to man
when the last effort at arbitration and CON
Citation had failed 1t is asserted by their
employers that better wages cannot be
paid. but that is not true, or if it is true
today, it need not be true tomorrow if
proper business methods are applied. 1t
is true that the men are in want and true
that they deserve support and encourage
ment and workingmen everywhere should
lend them all the assistance they can to
bridge over the short time between now
and the return of warm weather.
They have struggled through the
cold dark days of winter
Let us help them to the end. Remember
that he who gives quickly is first to stop
the cry OF hunger. Manhood should not
be throttled by the decree of any man, no
matter how rich he may be. Independence
should not be crushed out of the coal min
ers by soulless monopoly, but every dime
and dollar that can be spared should be
sent to the heroic miners of the Lehigh
region. Double your contributions and
win this long and hard fought battle for
miners and labOrers of Pennsylvania

BERLIN, March 3.-The imperial family
has ceased to hope for the recovery of the
crown prince The latest results of the

unfavorable, disclosing traces of cancer in
the pus arising from the crosis of the carti-
lage Of the larynX Court dispatches con-
fiji m the progress of the symptoms tending
toward fatal issue The occasional ap
pearance OF improvement is followed
by a renewal of the gravest indications.
The decrease in his strength has caused
"a saddening change in the aspect, and has
transformed him from robust into an
aged and debilitated man who is obviously
suffering. The conflict of reports does not
weaken the fact based upon absolute infor-
nation that in the highest official quarter
every hope has been abandoned of his re-
covery. No immediate crisis is expected,
but it is recognized that a sudden change
for the worse may occur at any moment
involving his death if the disease
should be permitted to run it's
full course The crown prince may be
able to return to Berlin in May and pass
his last days there. Since his family have
recognized that a fatal issue is most
profile, the crown prince himself mas ex-
pressed an urgent desire to return to
| Berlin as soon as possible. He has stated
his intention to the emperor who ccincid-
ing with the crown prince has relin-
quished his projected journey to San
Reno. The respiUes from the suffering
that the crown prince obtains encourages
confidence that he will be able to return
to Berlin. If lie is fated to
die suddenly at San Reno, he has every
thing ready. He has written his will and
prepared d political statement for his sue

A Significant Showing.

The Harrisburg Telegraph has sounded
the Republican newspaper editors of the
state on their presidential preferences.
OF the forty-nine answers received, Sher.
man, Blaine and Cameron, for first choice
for president, lead with II for Sherman,
10 for Blaine and for Cameron Haw-
Icy has 4, Lincoln and Gresham 2, and
Evarts, Allison, Hiscock, ScoGeld,
Depew and Beaver have one each. For
second choice Gresham leads with 3, Al
.hson and Depew each have 2, and Quay,
Hswley, Sherman, Beaver, Packer,
Cameron and Lincoln have one each.
For third choice there are two each for
Depew and Sherman, and one each for
Beaver and Cameron. Four newspapers
have no choice in the matter at all. For
vice president Hawley has 3, Gresham
and Harrison have each, and Wise,
Porter and Croft are credited with one
each.
It will be noticed that with Blaine's
lstter before the people he is still stronger
than anyone else in the state, and the
cold-blo0ded Sherman surpasses Came
ron. Quay is only mentioned once, and
1Aen - second choice. Evidently Penn
SyliAais editors think but little of their
party representatives in the United
States Senate.

East E.d Deyelopment

Tho completion OF the handsome stone
bridge Of the Pennsylvania railroad across
Conestoga creek, east Of the city limits,
makes another important step in the de-
velopment of the confines of the Eastern
End Of the city. This bridge crosses the
stream at q romantic looking point at the
base Of . stretch OF woodland, and just
where the carriage road skirts the waters
edge. The structure is Of enduring stone
and IL built with close devotion to archi.
tectural teauty. The complete story
Of it, building, precented elsewhere, will
beread with great interest, and the reci-
tal OF the history Of the bridge that pre-
ceded the present structure, marks the
giant advance that has been made In this
kind Of work in only little more than Q
generation Of time.
The East End Of Lancaster promises to
be very fruitful Of development in the
coming years. When the prison is re-
moved to the other side OF the Conestoga,
advance will be more rapid. And II, in
the march Of events, Lancaster should
by good fortune become possessed of q
public park, the East End is the place
for it. There Is found q winding stream,
plenty of woodland and elevation suffi.
cient to afford ample view Of the love-
liest landscape In the state.

A View or Lent.

Two weeks Of Lent have gone by
and most of the good resolutions for
bodily modification have gone with them.
Perhaps the sbominable weather had
much to do with shaking the excellent
intents with which the penitential season
was begun.
The Lenten period ought to be most
fruitful for charity. There are thousands
throughout the world who are denying
themselves some luxury during these six
weeks, and the money 20 saved in large
part finds its way in some current of
philanthropy. II it does not, the
Lenten faster is In danger OF looking
moro to the thrift that follows fasting
than the spiritual benefits flowing there
from. The men who deny themselves
cigars and strong drinks and the women
who abstain from sweetmeats will save
quito an amount of money in the ag-
gregate. Unless all OF this finds its
way in unselish expenditure, the Len.
tan observance is most hollow sham.
