The Coal Freeze Out.

The voices of the orators who as
sured the miners that their wages de-
pended on the election of Harrison
have scarcely been drowned in the
shouts of victory, and 1000 of those
same miners are to be thrown out Of
employment. without previous notice
at the beginning of winter, by the
closing of the mines. Notice has been
given that the Monongahela miners
will close down December /, for an
inde6nate term. The excuse is that
there has been an overproduction and
more coal can not be disposed of il
mined. The duty on coal is 70 cents
ton, and high protectionists will say
that it is not enough. They will in
sist that the duty should be raised
and all foreign coal excluded but
everybody knows coal is high enough
for those who use it, and if there has
been overproduction il has not reduc-
ed the cost. Another example of how
the war taxes do pot benefit labor was
given in the discharge of 500 employ
es after election by the Higgins car
pet works, of New York city. The
men who were discharged actually
marched in the Republican parades,
carrying banner with the device
"For the protection of American la
bor." The week after election five
hundred of them were walking the
streets without employment. They
had voted for protection for the man.

The Manchester Guardian, of Eng
land, has expressed its opinion of the
Mills bill as follows:
On the whole, its operations will
probably be distinctly to our disad-
vantage. Only in few trivial in
stances the bill reduces the tariff on
articles imported from England. The
main object of the measure is by light
ening and in some instances removing
the duties on raw material to lessen
the cost of the production of Ameri-
can manufactures. and of course every
step in that direction will make the
United States more dangerous com.
petitor of England in all neutral mar
kets. If purely selfish considerations
had been allowed to sway English
opinion, we do not doubt that the feel
ing among clear-sighted English trad
ers would have been rather for the
rejection than for the acceptance of
the Mills Tariff bill. If English
opinion is running in favor Of Mr..
Cleveland's candidature, il is not be-
cause any hopes are entertained OF
material benefit to our trade to be de-
rived from his continuance in Office,
but because he leads the party which
is, at any rate for the time, the party
Of purity.

Better Spend Some of Their Campaign
Money.

No argument the advocates of free
trade employed during the campaign
is as likely to influence voters against
protection as two items they are now
publishing side by side for the benef,
of their cause. The first is a para
graph from the New York Tribune
describing one of the Republican pro.
.cessions in that city, in which the fol-
lowing occurred
There was wild cheering all along
Thomas street when 400 carpet work
ers came marching into the street, a
solid body Of voters, and all from
Higgins carpet works, at the foot of
West Forty-third street. At the head
of this splendid turnout was superin-
tendent Joseph Ferguson.
The second was published in the
New York Herald only two days af-
ter election:
Notices were put up in Higgins
carpet factory, in West Forty-third
street, last night that the force is to
be reduced one-half on Saturday,
throwing about 600 people out of
work. The notice has caused a good
deal Of CONSERVATION among the hands,
as it is not known yet who will have
to face the winter without work.
The protectionists could have better
afforded to "chip in" and support
these men all winter than allowed
them to be ttfned adrift in this fash
ion. Every man of them will be a
fervent missionary of free trade and
will denounce the delusion of protec-
tionists promises with zeal and dilig-
ence. Workingmen will talk it over
and lay it up against the protection
lists for use in future elections 1t is
bad break. Some of their campaign
money could not be better spent than
in keeping these men at work.-Jour-
nal.

The Mormons are making converts
to their peculiar beliefs in large num-
bers in Alabama and Tennessee. A
special correspondent of the New
York World has been investigating
the work of this sect in those locali-
ties and has made startling discover
les. There are now in Alabama and
Tennessee forty ffourishing mission
stations which are making every year
fully 10000 new converts. In the
vicinity of Chattanooga within the
past ten months 800 persons have
been converted to Mormonism.-
Every sixty days from 200 to 500 are
shipped west. There is no lack of
vigor on the part of the Mormon ell
ders in prosecuting the work. Nor
monism will receive fresh impetus
from these new accessions. And it
must not be forgotten that large
number of Mormons have recently
been imported from Europe. The
evil is growing rapidly.-Detroit Free
Press.

ey which we call taxes, we act like
children. We are caught by clap
trap and humbug. Professions of tin
helmets and torchlights run away
with our common sense, and we often
go and vote for the man who makes
the biggest show. Would it not be
as sensible TO elect for mayor the man
who could make the largest display Of
wooder monkeys and pin wheels in
his shop windows ?-Correspondent in
the New York Evening Post.
