o hollow,

The Iron Age contains the following
editorial article, which tells as much be-
tween the lines a. il does in them:
"For the protection ofthe furnaces along
its line, and of those for whom it hauls
large quantities OF raw material. the Penn
sylyania railroad has advanced the rates Of
freight on Southern iron. In other words,
the railroad proposes to charge tho same
rates on its part Of the haul TO Central and
Esstern Pennsylvania points as 1t does on
local iron. This sounds fair, but is. hardly
wise, nor docs 1t eyince thorough grasp
of the situation, because II negleets the
most important interests. The company
has taken hold Of the. matter at the wrong
end. What would be moro judicious would
be 10 reduce the local rates on Pennsyl-
yapia iron to parity Of the figures until
now granted as pro ratio on Southern
irons. In ito Efforts TO take care of the
producers Of pig iron tho railroad has neg-
leeted the interests Of tho consumers,
Who indirectly are far greater revenue
producers 10 the railroad than the fur
.nsces. ii viii not lake very much TO con.

grating 20 Virginia or even further South.
The difficulty ia not to be met by marking
up rates OH Southern iron. The consumer
demands lowering Of local rates."
The meaning of all this is that the IRON
makers Of Pennsylvania realize at last the
utter impossibility of competing with the
Southern furnaces, and arc rcsorting to
artifcial--though futile-devices to pro-
tect themselves from ruin. But, az the
Age points out the device of raising railroad
rates on Southern iron is shallow and
delusive one. As the States IRE prohib-
tied by the Constitution from restricting
commerce among themselves by the impo-
sition of tariff, there is really no hope
for the Pennsylvania ironmaker but to
move his plant South. We shall be glad
to see him at Big Stone Gap, where he
can make iron ar$7 so per ton, according
to the opinion of expert Scotch manufac-
turers, and the sooner he comes the better.
Iron will soon be made in the South Mt less
than two-thrds the cost of making it in
Pennsylvania; and no possible device will
save the Northern producer from ruinous
competition 1t can't be done by tariff,
because the States are prohibited by the
Constitution from imposing it; and il can't
be done by raising railroad rates on us, as
the consumers will soon demonstrate. The
South must inevitably become the center
Of the iron industry Of this country, if not
of the world. We have good ores; We have
the best coking coal yet discovered; we have
cheap labor. and abundance of limestone,
and are within easy reach of the leading
iron markets Of the world. These facts
can't be controversial and they will soon
settle the problem SO clearly that the
Northern manufacturers will accept it as
final and retire from business. or come
South to carry ii on. 1t is folly to fight
against Nature.

the never-failing ball of an Arnaut strikes
him from behind. Nobody cares for the yic-

of seeking the criminal. All the clans
unite when any action is to be undertaken
against the Giaours. II is impossible to
describe what the Servians and Bulga-
rians have to suffer under the tyranny of
these wild tribes. They are absolutely
without protection, for Seryia and Bulga-
ria, though they are not ignorant Of the
state of things, are too weak to call Tur-
key to account on this subject, and the
Powers will not NEEDLE for fear of what
the results might be for all Europe.

show what the Servian Ghristian popula-

The Big Stone post. (Big Stone Gap, Va.) 1890-1892, 1890-08-22

naronts arc thus forced to send their chill
d,en 70 the Mohsmmedan schools. A few
DAYS ago forty Arnauts laid siege; to the
largo farm Of one Mitar Titanic, near
Pristine, who, with household Of sixteen
men and women, all well armed, resisted
the stack. When evening came only the
msster and his three sons were left, and
thew surrendered. The Arnauts fell upon
them and literally cut them to pieces.
Then they threw the corpses into neigh
boring maize field, where flock Of eagles
and yultures feed upon them every day,
and can be seen from the town.
will only mention one more OF the
hundred incidents which form everyday
life here. Two boys, sons of farmer
named Lasarevitch, at Prisrend, were in
tho fields with their fathers cattle, a week
ago. when an Arnaut caught them, and,
tskinc them home on his horse, attempted
10 ill-usc them. The boys struggled for
liberty and the Arnaut cut them both to
nieces He then packed their heads
feet. hands and trunk in bag, and, rid
ing with it past the house Of their fa,:,er,
threw it down at his door. The Turkish
government daily gives assurances of iis
inability to change this state Of things.
