Evading the Laws.

The Mine Examining Boards of this
Fourth district are confronted with a
dilemma-one that the framer of the
law creating such boards of examiners
never dreamed of.
Long before the law went into force,
authorizing miner to hold certificate
of competency to work as miner in an
anthracite coal mine, it was the custom
in some collieries to have two miners
work their breasts, gangways, or what
ever contract they had as partners.
Since the law, requiring miners to be
certified, this plan has increased to snch
an extent as to be almost a defiance to
the law. 1t is done in this way: A
miner receives a certificate from the ex-
amining board, gets job and is assigned
to breast, gangway or some other con-
tract work and an uncertifed man
placed with him. This man to all intent
and purpose is only laborer, but when
payday arrives the certified miner turns
over the difference in wages to the sup
posed laborer, and he is placed on the
same footing as the man in whose name
the contract is entered. If any trouble
arises between them, as to qualifications
or other matter, the miner cannot get
rid of his uncertified partner, but is
quietly given to understand that he must
keep him and if not satisfactory he can
quit.
The miners in good standing-those
possessing ertifcates--should see to it
that those men are shaken off them,
and refuse point-blank to share their
hard earned wages with men who have
no responsibility resting on them. BY
this means and no other can the miners
of the Anthracite Coal Field protect
themselves and live up to the law. 1t is
useless to rail and scold the examiners.
They cannot be cognizant of all viola
tions of the law, and must, in great
measure, rely on their fellow-workmen
to aid them in its enforcement by bring
ing to their notice any violations of the
law when it takes place.

THE WELSH WOULDN'T STAND 1T.
So Harrison Withdrew Evan Jones'
Wou1d-Be Supplanter.

WASHINGTON, d. c., May 27.-Wher
the Rev. Samuel L. Gracy, of Massachu.
sets, was proposed for a consulate by the
Massachusetts Senators it was stated that
Gracy had rendered valuable party serv-
ice in the last compaign by keeping the
Prohibition Republicans" in line for the
Republican candidates.
Later on President Harrison was in
formed by distinguished Massachusetts
Republican that Mr.. Gracy's chief serv-
ice to the Republican party in the last
campaign was in suppressing, in the Re-
publican Gubernatorial Convention of
Massachusetts, the ballots which the
Prohibition Republicans had prepared
for the nomination of President Capen,
of Tufts College, for Governor. Never
theless, under the pressure of Hoar and
Dawes, President Harrison nominated
Gracy for Consul at Cardiff, Wales.
AS soon as he saw the nomination SEN
ator Spooner, of Wisconsin, rushed up to
the White House and told the President
that Evan Jones, the incumbent at
Cardiff, was a wounded Republican vet
eran of the Iron Brigade, appointed by
President Arthur, whose removal after
he had been retained by Cleveland,
would ALLEVIATE the Welsh vote. Harri-
son took the hint, and to-day withdrew
Gracy's nomination to Cardiff and
nominated him to Foo Chow, China, not
so desirable place. We should think

there is way to stamp out polygamy,
and that way has been taken. The
decision is the best thing that could
happen for Utah, for it will not be
long now before that territory will be
admitted as a State. 1t never would
have had chance for admission but
for the clause providing for the taking
of the anti-polygamy oath before the
Mormons can vote. Polygamy is a
disgrace to the whole country, and it
is gratifying to know that hereafter it
cannot be practiced even in Utah ex-
cept as a crime. Three of the judges
of the Supreme Court, including the
Chief Justice, dissented from the de-
cision, declaring that certain essential
provisions of the Edmunds' act are
unconstitutional, but the majority,
fortunately, took another view Of the
matters, and thus the Mormon leaders,
who so bitterly fought the law in the
Territorial Courts, hoping to save the
life of polygamy, are totally routed.
Indeed the majority of the Supreme
Court, it is understood, justify the
of the church property
on the ground that the property was
used to sustain the practice of poly
gamy.

OPPONENTS of ballot reform, de

OPPONENTS of ballot reform, de
spairing of preventing its adoption in
nearly all of the States, as final ef-
fort to defeat it, are raising the cry
that it would cost too much money.
Anything that will tend to reform the
ballot and to permit a full and free
expression of the voters is worth pay
ing for, and the people are ready and
anxious to do the paying. Fair and
honest elections ought to result in the
electing of fair and honest officials,
and the people would thus more than
get their money back. A good, Wig
orous ballot reform law in Pennsyl-
vania would not come amiss.

EX-SENATOR EMERY, of Mexican
county, some weeks ago in a public
speech, accused Senator Delamater
the candidate for the Republican
nomination for Governor, of perjury,
forgery and bribery, not to mention
any crimes of lesser grade, and de.
clared himself able, willing and
anxious to furnish proofs of his aver
ments wherever and whenever called
upon. Delamate has made no ATTEMPT
to vindicate himself but he sought a
left-handed vindication by irving to
secure delegates in Mexican county
He was aided in his effort bv Con.
gressman Watson, who wants a re.
nomination in the Twenty-seventh dis
trict, and by the powerful backing of
the Standard Oil Company. For
once, however, the Standard appears
to have shouldered a load too heavy
for it. Senator Emery has carried
his county against Delamater, and the
perjury, forgery and bribery charges,
instead OF being informally rubbed
out, have been informally rubbed in.
1t is a sad, sad occurrence when an
indifferent public will not assist in
vindicating distressed candidate
even when he is willing to pay for it.

GENERAL HASTINGS Republican cam
paign committee, at a meeting in
Philadelphia, a few days ago, said
the following in their address to
the Republican voters of Pennsyl-
vania: "The most thoughtful of men
OF our party have not failed to dis
cern that the tide of popular support
which carried Benjamin Harrison in
the Presidential chair has been ebb-
ing since the last election, and many
strongholds of the Republican party
have been captured, and some States
hitherto Republican have gone Demo
cratic: 1t does not belong to us to
speculate upon causes, for they may
be removed, but the same influences
prevail in Pennsylvania as in other
States, and being timely warned we
should omit no effort to keep Penn
sylvania in the Republican column
10 do this we feel that a proper re.
gard should be paid to the over
whelming demand which comes from
all parts of the State for General
Hastings" Yes! the Republican
tide has been "ebbing since the last
election" and will continue to ebb un-
der the management of Boss Quay
and Harrison.

ator about his business. His business is
to count the people for the purpose of ap-
portioning Representatives in Congress
and direct taxes. He has no more right
to require answers to the questions
quoted above than has the man who goes
around canvassing for directory.
If the enumerator, still acting under
his instructions, warns you that you will
be fined $50 for refusing to disclose your
chronic maladies, your physical defects
and the private busines affairs of your
landlord, laugh at him.
Our readers can Judge for themselves
how likely they are to be indicted, tried,
convicted of misdemeanor and fined for
refusing to answer questions which the
United States Government has no con-
stitutional authority to ask. But if there
should be general agreement on the
part of citizens to resist this obnoxious
and unnecessary inquisition, the position
of each individual refuser would be bet
ter. 1t would be an interesting expert
ment if the census officers should indict
the whole community for refusing to
disclose its secret physical ailments and
its private debts for the benefit of statis-
teal science.
Section 2191 of the Revised Statutes,
being part of the general Census law of
1850, under which the censuses of 1850,
1860 and 1870 were taken, provided
penalty of $50 for refusal to answer either
Of the inquiries authorized by law. But
-he fine had to be sued for and recovered
N a civil action by the Assistant United
states Marshal in the district.
The law of 1879, and again the present
aw of 1889, provided a penalty 'Fnot ex-
'eeding $780," and made misdemeanor
Df willful failure or refusal to respond to
o the enumerator's interrogatories. The
present law also provides that the pen
llty may be enforced ''by Indictment or
action in any Court United

FROM various pension decisions of
the Interior Department it is clear
enough that no sullen maligner nor
cowardly deserter will be refused a
place on the list of pensioners. The
latest addition to the roll is Henry G.
Bird, drafted man, who deserted at
the first opportunity, was caught,
courtmartialed and sentenced to ''com-
plete his term of service" While
serving this sentence the disgraced
man contracted a pensionable dis
ability; but being an offender under
sentence he could not be pensioned.
1t has been reserved for Assistant
Secretary Bussey, of the Interior De
partment, to declare that such man
is the peer of the brave men who
fought and suffered uncomplainingly,
and that he deserves and is entitled to
a pension. If this is so, there is hardly
sneak'ng coward nor Sinking coffee

general for the Tigers, as they Suffered
their first defeat at the hands Of their
most bitter opponents-the Gimlers-by
a score of 6 to 2. The game was marred
by some of the most glaring errors ever
seen on the base ball ground. The
Tigers played a miserable, listless, don't
care-sort of game, and the dash and
vim which they have shown in previous
contests was absent; while the Gimlers
played game, which if kept up will be
hard to beat. They pounded the ball
hard, and often, at times when the
Tigers were getting in their errors, which
accounts for their victory. The score by
innings as follows:

the livery stables will not be allowed! to hire

but the omnibusseS will doubtless be allow
ed to meet the trains rs necessity. The
drug stores will be open as usual to ill pre-
scriptions and dispense medicines.
This step taken by our city council to
cause the proper observance Of Sunday is
the correct thing and they deserve the
thanks of the people for it, though some
will doubtless kick because the barber shops
and liquor saloons will be closed on Sun
day. Why should the barber be required
to work on Sunday and why should liquor
men be allowed to sell whisl,ey on Sunday
through back doors while al other business
is entirely suspended?
