Ignorance or Malice.

The Iron Age says:
The final collapse Of the coke strike vii! unques-
tonably have an important influence the iron and
steel trade throughout the whole country. As we
report elsewhere, the Conncllsve coke manufacture
ers have decided to maintain for the present the price
OF ST. per ton which had been fixed previous 70
their struggle with their men. The Connellsville
manufacturers evidently feel that they occupy pos
tion Of great strength, and seem inclined to demand
what they insist is fair return upon the capital In
vested In their business. Great iron and steel Sec
tons which until now have depended upon this small
region for their fuel will protest vigorously that the
policy chosen Is dangerous to them In the long rum
No one will deny that far quality is concerned
the Connellsville product ranks first as furnace
fuel 1t is question for the to decide how
large the difference in price between the standard
coke and that produced in other regions must be in
order to warrant their choosing the latter.
The Iron Age has studiously avoided
keeping it's readers advised Of the advan-
tages and progress of the South, and has
not unfrequently been guilty of misrep-
resentation of we'll known facts, but we
did not expect to see SO extravaganza a
statement in its columns that "no one
will deny that SO far as quality is con-
cerred the Connellsville product ranks
first as furnace fuel" If it will read
the letter of Mr. A. S. McCreath, Penn
sylvania's best known expert, which ap-
pears in another column, it will see that
the Big Stone Gap coke is superior to
that of Connellsville, and if it will open
its eyes and ears for moment it will see
and hear numbers of persons who have
had great experience in coke making
even in Connellsvillc coke making-who
will declare that product inferior to ours.
This ostrich act will not enable the Iron
Age, nor anyother journal devoted exclus-
lively to Northern interests, to destroy
facts. These facts too are becoming
more and more generally known and &C
cepted in spite of the attempt of section
al sheets to ignore or obscure them.

advantages tho 4. s N. can enjoy by Its

IL derives from through passsnger route.
Net one Of the +. Ms. freight cars
loaded with iron or coal will be hauled
hy that road, as its facilities do not per-
nit the prompt transportation of the
present output from it's own coal fields.
The immediate difficulty in the consum-
nation Of most, il not all these projects,
consists in the scarcity of money. But
there is every reason to believe this diff
Guilty is only temporary. We have an
enormous cotton crop, the promise of an
extraordinary wheat crop, every bushel of
which that can be spared will find ready
and high price in Europe, as the crop
there is short; and after the immediate
embarrassment in the money markets of
Europe has been relieved, we shall not
only get all our gold back but will find
there an eager market for all meritorlous
railroad securities.
Europe never had as much confidence
in American bonds and stocks as it has
to-day, and the difficulty in placing them
there is due entirely to the money strin-
gency which is only temporary. The
probabilities are therefore that within the
next year or two we shall have de-
gree of activity which our most sanguIne
"promoters'' do not now anticipate; and
there will not only be new and devour-
ing demand for our securities at home
but Europe will be anxious for them.

GoRNAN is looming up for the Presidential
nomination. He is perhaps the shrewdest
politician in the United States, and, though he
has been apparently quiet and certainly unos-
tentatious and modest, it is believed his plans
have been laid with consummate skill. He
has powerful friends throughout the country
who are only waiting for Cleveland and Hill to
complete the cut-throat business they have
been engaged IN, when they will show their
hands. In truth it seems that the logic of the
situation points to German.

The Progress of federation.

The world moves. The spirit of liber-
alism is abroad in all civilized lands, and
there is more liberation than ever before
alike in the pulpit of the preacher and
on the platform of the politician. A few
centuries ago Toy would have been scorch-
ed at the stake and Briggs would have
been pierced with the spikes of the lnqui-
sition. Indeed it has been but little
over three hundred years since Calvin
prosecuted Seryctus for dissenting from
the doctrine of the Trinity, and the accus-
ed persisted amid burning fagots.
But we are not only advancing in the
sciences but in the humanitics also.
Whether this advance is due to modern
religion, or whether modern religion is
due to this advance, or whether it is the
result of the combined evolution of both,
We leave the reader to decide for HIM
self. That is n matter for the Huxlevs
and the hampton lecturers to determine.
1t is quite certain that mankind, in relig-
ious matters, are more disposed to accept
the sermon on the mount than the austere
code of Moses, and to substitute rhetoric
for rotten eggs in political controversies.
And is this not progress in the right
direction? After the experience of ages
has demonstrated that the rack and the
stake can not make that false which is
true, or that true which is false, and after
it has been rendered equally clear that
political prescription, exile, Imprisonment
or death can not alter political fact,
why apply such tests to the thoughts and
convictions Of men?
There are of course bigots in religion
and partisans in politics who would still
require every one to conform to old stand
ards or suffer the old punishments, but
happily they arc few; and, please God, the
day will come when there shall not be
one-when, like the temple at Jerusalem,
the entire structure of superstition and
intolerance and hypocrisy will be demol-
ished, not leaving one stone above
another.
One church sets up creed and requires
all it's communicate and teachers to sub
scribe to ito accept it implicitly and
without reservation. A year or two, or a
decade after it sets up another creed, diff
fering materially from the first and inl-
poses the same requirement. Suppose
a member wishing to render personal aid
to oil moral movements desires to remain
in the communion but dissents from the
first creed and would accept the latter.
Should he be prescribed and cast into
outer darkness because he anticipates the
change by q few years and finds itimpos-
sible to accept the doctrines prescribed
at the time?
So with the platforms Of parties. The
founders OF the Democratic party favored
. protective tariff aud opposed m internal
revenue tax. The present leaders, who,
aided by large distil1ers, have acquired
baleful ascendency over the minds of the
masses. have completely reversed this
platform and oppose q protective tariff
and favor an Internal revenue tax. Now
if i person believes that Mr.. Jefferson
and Dir. Madison aud Mr.. Monroe had i
wiser conception Of the interests Of the.

COL Jno A. Cockerill, who did more than

Gently the business manager Of the paper, af-
ter resigning their positions, have bought the
Commercial Advertiser, very old and decayed

They propose to make the Commercial Adyer-

will likely succeed. The World will suffer by
the change. 1t has no one left on its staff with

destitute of dignity and character. The Sun
has now an opportunity to regain the circula-
ton it lost in 1884 by the blundcr of support
ing Butler for President. 1t is certainly the
best edited paper in New York and has always
retained strong hold upon the thinking and
more substantial classes. The World has
pandered to the shop girl and the drummer
tickle elements on which TO base permanent
circulation. Under Pulitzer it has never
gained access 10 UleIuDeTS VI tuS al IA anu
hardly to heads of the departments, much less
to the Libraries of students. All it seemed to
seek was circulation; and in securing it, the
management lost sight entirelyo of the methods
necessary to retain it. The paper therefore is
like the shifting sand in the current of Ameri-
can life-a bank to-day, tomorrow gone. 1t is
perhaps the most uncertain newspaper proper

No, brothers all, let us be tolerant, for
bearing, just. The great truths OF reli-
gion may safely be left to free and rever-
.ent thought, and the principles of good
government may we'll be committed tofhe
keeping of the intelligent sentiment OF
the people. If every member of achurch
or of party who does not agree with the
letter of the creed or every plank OF the
platform, is to be driven into line or BAN
ished from the fold, the church or party
adopting such methods will have an c1-

And the church or party that does this

from nonresident property holders asking in
formation in regard to the tax ordinances. These
ordinances would occupy more space in the
PosT than we can afford to give the city free
of charge. The fact is, the citizens here are
not acquainted with these ordinances, nor with
others passed by the council. They have
never been published. Big Stone Gap occu-

out taking any steps to let the public know
what they are. The result is they are vlo-

Major O'Brien, Mr.. Marston and Mr..
Gcrekcn, am told; are no longer connected
with the l.. & y. r. R. Whether their rela'
tions with the company are severed because
there is no more immediate need of their
services or because of the reported disagree
ment with the Office at Louisville, or both,
do not positively know. 1t is quite ccrtAin,
however, that there has been some friction be-
tween the engineers on this division ana
President Smith. lie thought they had made
the construction of the line too expensive.
Marston has been with the company four years
and am told got $500 per month. Gereken
got $3.50 per month, and when he left told me
he had only saved $500 out ofhis salary. MAJOR
O'Bren got more, of course, and doubtless
saved round sum. Mr.. Marston has accumu-
lated some property here, and is in easy CIR
cumstanccs. The life is IL hard one. The
work is exactng and involves exposure and
hard living. Major O'Brien and Gereken are
now in New York: and as soon as Mr..
Narston returns from Louisville, where he has
gone to settle up matters with the home office,
he too will leave with his family. Indeed
there seems to be disagreements all around.
The contractors lost heavily and claim they
were made to do needless work. Some Of them
are bitter in their complaints. But the road
is built; and though it cost money, it is mag
