THE GOAL wASHERIBs.
How They are Developing in This
County.

| AOW 4uey are DeVel lOp1ng In This
County.
The Pottsville Chronicle publishes the
ollowiug interesting article on the coal
washeries of the county:
The new washcry at Giberton is about
finished and will be Put in operation in a
few days. This washery is owned bv
Beddall Brothers, of town, and was
| erected by Contractors Christ and Heser.
1t is the largest coal washery in the
county, and cost $4,000. The banks
which will be washed by this concern are
very rich and will give 100 cars OF good
coal day.
The coal washery business is rapidly
| gaining prominent potion in the coal
trade Of Schuylkill county. There are in
operation at the present time seven wash
cries owned by individuals and the Phila.
delphia and Reading Coal and Iron Com
pany. These washeries are all located
near old culm banks, which contain many
thousands of dollars worth Of coal, dumped
there before improved mining machinery
was introduced to win all the coal from the
dirt.
The Beddall Bros. washery is the best
that has been built in this region, and will
give the 5est results.
The Sydney Coal Co. has a very large
washery at Gilberton. 1t has been in
| operation over three years and is now
superintended by John G. Scott, an able
mine foreman, who was superintendent at
the Iehgh Valley C5mpanys York Farm
colliery until his eyesight gave out.
This washery has already "washed1 one
large and very rich culm bank and is now
at work on another. In October 8. 773 tons
Of coal were shipped from this wsshery.
A washery is built like breaker, only it is
not so large. Il is fitted up with iigs
screens, schutes, pockets, loading tracks.
and there is always great demand for
boys to pick slate where one of them ia
located
The Philadelphia and Reading Coal and
Iron Company has one washery at the
Knickerbocker colliery, Shenandoah
which has a capacity of so cars day.
There is another at Glen Carbon which
turns out the same quantity. The COM
pany erected one at the Lincoln collierv
culm banks, which turns out 80 cars day.
The old Brookside breaker has been turned
into a washery, and when it is started it
will send out 80 or 60 cars of coal a day.
AT Middleport washery is in full oper-
alton and doing big business. There is also
one on. the Girard lands at Girardville.
owned by Kester & Co., which cleans
about 80 tons daily.
The quality of the culm banks varies.
The one now being worked by the Sydney
Coal Company at Giberton is very good.
and the percentage of coal sizes is about as
follows:

- a oJ1l .'''''''' ,.......2j cent.
- c1tl''''' per cent,

All of this, however, is only so per cent.
Of the culm. Some OF the Others are
much richer. A number of new washeries
are to be erected in different parts of the
county during the coming year.

Shenandoah will spread, that it will have

both companies can furnish will not be

OUR I'M PRovEkEkI AND FE0eREss.

The street improvement work of
Winston and Salem has progressed
very satisfactorily up to the begins
ing Of winter weather; and during
the open days of winter season, and
in the coming spring and summer,
will reach a very gratifying point
toward completion of the first in
staIlment undertaken.
With these, and what must ne
cessarily follow in steady sequence,
and the building operations that
will resume on an enlarged scale,
Winston and Salem will present
impressive attractions to visitors and
investors not held OFT by any other
city of the State.
The resources Of this section are
so great and varied, the volume of
business here large and growing,
manufacturing so active and pros
porous, that no one can fail to note
the advantages of locating indus
tries and mploying energies in a
community such as Winston and
Salem constitute.

itself the Public Printing contract

things upon that subject.
The Progressive Farmer does

The Progressive Farmer would
not have the publ. printing.
The Progressive Farmer does
not want, and does not desire
public patronage of any sort.
The Progressive Farmer is an in

upon the economic issues before
the people; butitintends to make

for private gain. We advocate

OUR NAME

In consolidating THE TwIN-CITY
DAILY and THE WESTERN SENTINEL
we have name that is unique in jour
nalism, combining, as it does, the
names of two papers under what
would ordinarily be the simple name
of one paper. 1t is in effect THE
DAILY and SENTiNEL-Or DAILY-SEN-
TINEL-as we shall prefer to write it.
In Difference to friends of both the
old papers we have deemed it best to
thus preserve the identity of both,
whatever our own preferences or at
tachments might be-
There is no doubt much in ii name;
great strength in popular name.
Neither THE DAILY nor TIE SENTINEL
ought to bear Il very bad name in
this community, to say the least.
TO say the most, we hope to make the
new combination bear the very best
name.
Prejudices and preferences are as
varied as the minds and dispositions
OF men, and nO community accepts,
as one man, any change in establish
ed institutions without more or less
reluctance and regret. Recognizing
this, and the further fact that both
papers were the creatures of popular
favor, we have avoided any sudden
change; but holding to the local name
under which the one grew into favor
in the community, have retained that
| OF the other, which has been Il house
no d word for n third of century
Und~r this name we hope to pros
per, to improve and to please. We
shall strive to do so, at least. We
| are not able now, at once. to make
| the improvements i'll the paper we
had contemplated, owing to the
untOward event of Christmas morn
| ing; but we shall work as hard as we
| can to make the community good
newspaper.
| But under whatever. name we sail.
we hope to make the matter of the
paper agreeable to all readers and its
| service acceptable to all interests and
so invite tho cooperation and sup
port of all the good people of our
| towns.
