THE GREAT STRIKF

READING, Pa, Jan. The fact that
there is coal miners strike in the
Scuylkill regions is already perceptible
all along the main line and branches of
the Reading railroad. There is a fear
full stagnation in the coal traffic. During
the "a hours ending with noon to-day,
but 1000 cars of coal were sent through
this city, in place of the accustomed
5000 and 5000 cars in that time The
discharge Of the 400 men employed in
the coal traffic on the Reading railroad
last night, it is believed will be followed
by many more in few days. The COM
pany employs 1900 men made up into
400 crews, in hauling coal to tide water
and interior points, and not one-fourth
of those will be required if the individu-
al operators alone continue working.
1t is learned at the Office of the COM
pany in this city that it will furnish in
dividual collieries for the present all the
empty cars they need and haul their
coal, although no contract has been
made with them. The company is min
ing hardly enough coal for its own pur-
poses, and all that is now sent comes
from collieries operated by private par
ties, but the output will not near sup
ply the cities and towns and numerous
industrial establishments in the Schuyl-
kill valley alone.
Many persons are hopeful that the
Pennsylvania Railroad Company may
relieve the urgent necessities of this
section. The Superintendent of the
Pennsylvania road, James Reed, of this
city, says that company is now hauling
1900 tons of coal day and that this ca
pacity would be increased to 1000 tons.
The general impression in this city is
that the miners employed by Individual
collieries will also strike when they find
that it is being handled by non-union
train men.
All the Reading company's As mines
are stopped and 10000 miners at least
are idle. Some place the number of
idle men as high as $4,000 in the Schuyl-
kill basin alone, which with 10000 in
the Lehigh makes the number quite
formidable

THE CARRIERS ADDRESS.

Kind friends, once more my yearly round make
Your poor, half-famished newsboy and would take
What change you kindly give. Pray bet 1t be

Through all last winter, while the SHOWS lay deep;
Through biting frOsts and April's windy sweep;
through rain or storm, or summers Sweltering

Another year is added to the Past,
Which brought us joys and sorrows treadng fast
Upon their heels. Nottrace of il remains
But siyering hair and youths ambitious gains.

W lille grief sits Al the hearth-st0ne making moan
Yea, Hynen, too, hath left his Joyous trace,
And naseent millions swarm to fill their place.
What did the year OF Eighty-seven brings
An added tax; q cyclone in the spring,
Whose mighty power for desolatiOn shed
Havoc and rum where its black wings spread.
Yet Charity, with never-weary feet,
Flew to the rescue through the disordered street.
On every hand she lent her heavenly aid,
And Hope rose up in joy to greet the maid.
Ii brought the order for the flags return,
Which made anew each patriots bosom burn,
And brought a hornets nest so near the seat
OF government, he beat quick retreat

In bright new dress aTrayed. a smiling belle

THE year just closed has not been an
especially eventful one in the worlds his
tory. Peace has covered civilized ma
tions with its white wings. and, appa-
rently, rulers and people are nearing the
time when they will know war and blood
shed no more. Nor have any especially
great triumphs of invention character
lied the year. Excepting the awful ca
lamity iu China, caused by great riv-
er bursting its artificial entertainments
spreading over a district as large as
the state of Massachusetts,, and drown
ing tens of thousands of people, no ca
lamities resulting in large loss OF life
have occurred.
People enter hopefully upon the new
year. OF course there are strikes, and
rumors Of lockouts, but as rule people
take a coeerful of affairs, and enter upon
the work of the new year with hope and
confidence.

THE inauguration of Gov. Foraker. of

THE Inauguration of Gov. Foraker, of
Ohio, uext Monday, will be one of the
most brilliant ceremonies ever known in
the history of the State Besides the
usual inaugural ceremonies there will be
a parade in which the Ohio National
Guard, civic and dpolitieal organizations
from all parts of the State will appear.
The famous Americus Club, of Pitts
5urgh, has signifed its intention Of be
ing present, and other clubs from Wheel
ing, New York, and outside the State,
will also be at the Inauguration. In ad-
dition to the ceremonies during the day
there will be a reception in the evening,
at which all will have an opportunity to
meet the Governor ard his charming
wife.
To enable all to go to Columbus to at
tend the Inauguration, the railroads
have made passenger rate of one cent
mile for the occasion. Many from
this county will undoubtedly improve
this opportunity, and it is hoped that the
county will be largely and fittingly rep
resented both in the parade and among
the spectators.

READ THE DEATH ROLL

Which the bills of mortality of any large
city may be fifty designated, and you will
find that renal and vesical maladies, that
is to say, those that affect the kidneys or
bladder, have remarkable prominence
We had almost said = prepOnderance.
Bright's disease and diabetes in the chron
ic stage are rarely cured, and gravel, ca
tarrh of the bladder and enureSis, slay
many. Yet at the outset, when the trouble
merely amounts to inactivity of the or
gans involved, the danger may be nuilli-
fed by that pleasant renal tonic and
diuretic. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters,
which imparts the requisite amount of
tone to the organs, without over-exeiti9Si
them, and involves no elaborate prepars
ton. Dyspepsia, a usual eoncOnitant oA
renal complaints, and debility, which they
invariably produce, are remedied by it.
So also are constipation, malarial, rheu-
matte and nervous ailments.

WHILE there is so much hustling and
combining for the places in the organiZa-
ton of the Legislature, it might be well
to cutoff some of these places as well as
in other state departments. The eXpen-
ditures of the state have been in excess OF
the income, and one of the ways to make
ends meet is to reduce expenditures The
tendency every year is to create more
places, and seqeral new offices have been
made by special enactments. The time
has come for this state to count the cost
of everything that is authOrized.-Colum-
bus Journal.
We heartily second the motion. There
are number of barnacles about Colum-
bus, and elsewhere in the state, who have
fastened themselves upon the state, and
the present is an opportune time to scrape
them off.
The financial affairs of the state are in
bad shape. Last fall the general revenue
fund, from which all the srdinary expen-
ses of the state government are paid, was
exhausted, and the state authorities re-
dueed to the extremity of drawing upon
county treasures. in anticipation of the
collection, before the payment of taxes
had fairly commenced.
The Republican majority will be held
responsible for continued reckless expen-
ditures.
Reduce expenses.

THURSDAY, JANUARY 3, 1888

WITH the beginning of the new year
The CHRONICLE appears in its new
dress. This involved an immense amount
of work within the last six days, and in
the necessary hurry the paper is by no
means as complete and handsome as it
will be hereafter. Every type and rule
to be used is new and bright, and in the
course of a few weeks we hope TO be
able to present to our readers very
handsome, bright, and excellent news
paper.
Great difficulty has been experienced
since the fire in getting out the paper.
We have necessarily been in the way OF
our friends of the Gazette, and they have
been in our way; yet they have cheerful
lysubmitted to the inconvenience, and
were always willing and anxious to
further assist Us. Words are feeble to
express gratitude for the generous treat
ment received at their hands. We hope
they may never bereduced to like straits
THE CHRONICLE will continue to be a
sturdy advocate of Republican measures
and as such We ask the friendly support
of the Republicans of the county.

BROTHER THoRNT. RODEFER is again
pounding the gongs for his so-called
prohibition party. In an address just
issued he invites "an ministers OF the
gospel in our county, and all members
of the W. c. T. u, and all others who
are wiliidg to give us a helping hand
to meet his alleged prohibition party in
convention.
This is presuming good deal. Sup
pose the Democratic party, or the Repub-
lican party, should issue such an address,
what would be thought Of it? Yet the
onty practical prohibition experienced
anywhere in Ohio, in all time, has been
under the local option feature of the
Dow law, which Brother Rodefer's party
wants to smash.

throwing the responsibility on others
a square back down in toto. Now, we will
not waste any more space on this numb
skull, but will say in conclusion, since he
has alluded to us as an e1-lOcal editor,
that this same ex-lOcal editor has revised
and corrected numerous manuscripts
from the pen Of this renowned writer, in
order to get them ready for the press.
But We had not intended to make this
secret public until he posed as writer
whose manuscripts have found their
way into the columns of the leading jonr-

done with him, and if he can get any
comfort out of his talk about black eyes
and bloody noses, he is welcome to it so
far as We are concerned.

SHERMAN's COMING SPEECH.

Washington telegram to Cincinnati Commercial
The principal topics Of conversation
tonight in Washington are the Lamar
confirmation and the expected great
speech Of Mr.. Sherman in the U. S.
Senate.
Mr. Sherman has spent more work
upon the preparation of this tariff speech
than be usually devotes to speech, per
haps more than he ever did before, and
there is eager expectation upon all
hands.
Indeed, there are several people here
from Ohio who have come on especially
to hear Mr.. Sherman's speech.
Undoubtedly there will be an impos-
ing scene in the Senate tomorrow, and
people with influence are already having
their hands full in procuring tickets to
the galleries.
The morning hour will close at l
O'Clock, and with the customary DELAYS
it will probably be about half-past or
p o'clock when Mr.. Sherman begins
speaking.
The speech will be an hour and a half
long.
The speech is a deliberate reply on
behalf of the Republican party to the
message of the President. 1t is the an
swer of master to a novice. Point af-
ter point as made by the President is
taken up and knocked over by Mr. Sher-
man as big ball knocks over nine pins,
and makes one pin knock over others.
The speech, in the way of figures and
statistics On the tariff and the operation
of the policy Of protection to American
industries, will be the most complete
and valuable document of its kind ever
made available to the uses of the Re
publican party.
1t is stated that Mrs. Cleveland and
party will grace the occasion with their
presence, ,and many important people will
be present, with full Senate, to hear
the Republican doctrine Of protection, as
propounded by the distinguished Sena-
tor from Ohio. Mr.. Payne will also be
present to question whether or not there
is anything in the policy of protection
that would assist the Standard Oil Com
pany to make few dollars more a year
so as to keep the wolf away from the
door.
AS to the other question, the eonfr-
nation of Mr.. Lamar, there is scarcely
less, perhaps more, curiosity.
If the matter had been sprung upon
the Senate for immediate decision, it is
altogether likely the confirmation would
have followed promptly. But the mat
ter looks little different now. There
has been time to consider the situation
and discuss it, and all the consideration
and discussion has been unfavorable to
Mr.. Lamar
The feeling has grown stronger and
stronger against the confirmation, and
only few pestiferous Mugwumps, who
are so much worse than the genuine
Democrats, hold out valiantly for the
recognition of the southern confederacy
in the Supreme Court of the United
States, through in many respects its
most Objectionable Southern man Mr.
Cleveland could have chosen.

THE Republican minority of the Re-
publicans in the Ohio Senate that have
lent themselves to the Democratic mi
nority, to combine and secure a fusion
majority, were in the Senate caucus of
the Republicans. They were members
of the caucus. They voted on every
proposition. They remained to the end.
The only thing the matter with them
was that there were not enough of them
to nominate the candidates that they
preferred. They lacked votes. The
majority nIled in the caucus, and the
nominations were fairly made. Every
man in the caucus was under honorable
obligation to give its candidates at least
a quiet support. The excuse is that
there had been SO combine" made that
included the majority of the Senators,
and that this was not fair and must be
resented and resisted to the bitter end.
Pooh. Take the case just as the minor
ity put 1t and they are inexcusably
wrong.-Ctn. Com. Gazette.

blood, nor had our peppers blacked by the
kicks of these noble (?) animals. We
wish, however, to say to this Mr. Smart
Aleck, that our course in this contrOyer-
sy has not been condemned nor censured
by our friends, and had he been present
at the session of the Glencoe literary
three weeks ago, and heard the article in
the society's paper concerning his SIAN !
derous and uncalled-for attack on its
members, he would have squirmed and
quailed in his seat, and at the first oppor |
tunity sneakingly stole away TO his seclu- |
ded haunts, and there quietly pondered
over his injured greatness. In our last

ments or stand branded as a falsitier,
but he has failed to substantiate a single |
statement, and tries 10 get out of it BY !

For many weeks the serious Illness
OF the gallant and popular heir to the
German Imperial throne has caused
much anxiety throughout Europe. The
Prince is in his 57th year. having been
born October Is, 1881. He was married
January 25, 1858, to Victoria Princess
Royal of Great Britain. A large family
of sons and daughters have been raised
by them, and all brought up to be useful
members of society. The sons were
well educated, and were all taught to
practice some handicraft. The princess
es, too, were carefully taught household
management and the homelieSt domestic
duties. In these matters the Prince was
cordially supported by his wife, the
Prlncess-Royal. Frederick William Mich
las Karl, coming from a sturdy militia
ry stock, has been one of the foremost
soldiers of the nineteenth century. In
the campaign against Austria, in 1866,
he greatly distinguished himself, and
was one of the chief actors in the deci-
sive battle of Sadowa. Four years after
ward, in command of the South German
legions in France, his energy, courage,
and skill were the admiration of the
world. His social character has great
ly endeared him to the people. AS a
son, husband, and father, 'Unser Fritz"
has been devoted, faithful and true. His
tastes are almost wholly military, but he
has been noted for his cheerfulness, his
kindness of heart, and his chivalrous
bearing on all occasions. During his
campaigns his frank cordiality to COM
rades of all ranks, his genial manners
and gay spirits, and his care for the
humblest of his soldiers, won the hearts
of the army in an unwonted degree.
The old Emperor will be 81 March %.
1t is feared the Crown Prince is the vic
tim of fatal maIady. His eldest son,
aged 27, is in poor health, and there is a
probability that the succession within
few years may descend to his son, now
aged six years.
