A FEW days ago the coal operators OF
central Illinois made an agreement flor
consideration" with the Northwestern
pool TO confne themselves to certain
limited territory in order that the opera
tors of neighboring states might the
better control output and prices for their
actions The Ohio operators have been
holeiDg meetings at Columbus this week
for a similar purpose-the regulation OF
output and maintenance of uniform
prices throughout the state. The mem
beers OF this organized monopoly control
an annual product of 100000 tons or
about two-tbirds of the production OF the
state. Whether the prices established
are reasonable or those Of public plunder-
ers cannot be said but the evidence Is in
favor of the latter presumption. The ex
actions of IL o ring have aroused the pee
pie OF Cincinnati, who are being urged
by the negspop ers TO use gas for fuel or
anything to shake of the monopoly.
On this kind OF coal the tariff tax is 70
cents a ton, levied for the protection OF
just such combinations as this. The fe9
tival OF "Peaoe on earth, good will TO
men" is inaugurated this year with the
formation of 1our-milers' oombina-
ton and several coal and other pools to
make bread, fuel and the neoessaries OF
life az dear as possible.

.sYsTEMA TIC STEALING.

Scarce half year after the Inauguration
greatest administration scandal in the histo-
ny of the government is completely exposed
and acknowledged in the dismissal of Tan
ner. A large sum of money has been taken
from the treasury without law or reason,
and the nation has been obligated for pay
ments which must be as inequitable as they
will he extraordinary. The sum of money
directly purloined may be thirty or forty
millions; the amount eventually involved
cannot now be estimated.
For two months the disbursements OF a
subordinate OF the Interior Department
have far exceeded the daily cost of the war
while Grant was before Richmond and
Sherman before Atlanta. To have continu-
ed Tanner in Office during the fiscal year of
1890, would have necessitated a irst pay
ment of $213,OO0 900, and not less than two
thousand millions in subsequent and cir
cumstantial subventions.
The immediate ruin OF the country is pre-
vented by the custer Of the pension commits
sioner. But that ruin is not averted save by
a confession Of the hypocrisy and treschery
OF the Republican party. The surplus was
promised to the Grand Army. The pensions
were to be enlarged and extended" on this
plan the paralysis destroyed Cleveland
But there has never been Republican office
holder save Tanner alone who intended to
keep his pledge to the "coffee-coolers." Tan
ner was q demagogue without suspicion of
Republican cant or hypocrisy. He never
alleged that he had ever the law on his side
He ingloriOusly declared that the Grand
Army saved the Union and should have it.
The Grand Army should receive one, two,
three thousand millions of the money of the
people who are taxed TO death. Il the tax
payers did not like il. let them move out of
the country with the Chinese-it was at the
best, in Tanners opinion, a severe climate
for the taxpayers.
Joined with this alarming spectacle was
the presence at the treasury doors OF the
pension agents, whose wicked instinct did
much to elect the President Private ad-
ministra.ions sprang out of the earth over

night, and these private administrations
over Swallowed the departments Of the gov
eminent in power and detail.
With the stealings published, the Presi-
dent has not dared 10 go further. AS his
own organs have coolly admitted, 1t was
question whether Tanner or the President
should tumble, and Tanner has fallen. But
the Democratic party and the Democratic
press demand something more corrective
than the piece OF paper that Tanner has
written. They want the money recovered
it was no less than stolen. Will the Pres
ident go after it? Will he permit the fences"
10 keep the pelf they have received by no
other executive authority than Tanners
say so. Can pension officer prosecute his
own case, pay himself $4,000 and get away
with it? Did even congressman succeed
who essayed that adventure in 1878
Tanner did not talk too much-he took
too much. Tanner was not dismissed be-
cause he talked too much-but because he
stole too much. mo money shall be drawn

THE FIGHT IN VIRGINIA.

The most significant as well as important
campaign that will be fought this year, is
that now going ON in Virginia. 1t is con
Quoted on both sides upon lines differing
from those occupied as yet by the respective
parties else where, and such combinations
as have been effected under the opposing
standards will hardly be matched in any
of the other States. The platforms, AS well
as national issues, arc of little consequence
this year in Virginia. The one over shad
owing and absorbing issue is whether Boss
Malone, the Judas Iscariot of the State !;
the carpet baggers, and the negroes shall
rule the State, or be driven forever into OBJ
security.
The Republican national administration
has staked all its hopes for the future in Vir-
ginia on Mahones success With the en-
tire State machinery in Mahone's def and
INSCRIPTIONS control, it is calculated that
the presidential vote of Virginia can be Sc
cured the next time for the Republican can
would he no longer room for hope OF that
vote. The whole force of the administra
tons influence has therefore been pledged
to Malone. The Republican national com
mittee has given all the aid in its power
Money has been and is to be furnished for
liberal expenditure on the "blocks of five"
plan. Anti-Mahone Republicans are To be
coaxed, bought, bulled or whipped into
support of the man they detest and despise.
John NJ Langston, the colored leader who
WAS slaughtered by Malone when the form
er ran for congress, and who had planned
revenge IN the present campaign, has been
induced to write letter in support Of Ma
hone.
On the other hand, the Democrats are
solid and determined against Malone and
Mahuncism. they recognize the fact that
the strength of Malone, the carpet baggers
aud the negroes mean subjugation of the
white race 10 the black, and the absolute
ruiualion oI every material interest of the
State. IL has become question of suprem-
cy rs between the white and black race, and
every man, woman and child, who has the
future oi Virginia at heart, is engaged in the
great struggle.
