John N. Mckinley, who is now in
his seventies, and one of the Oldest
thrasher machine men in this coun-

The coke operators of the Connells
vile region say that wages must be
reduced ten per cent. The twelve
thousand coke workers are quite as
strenuous in their demand that wages
must be increased. The years scale
expired on Tuesday and with so wide
a divergence between workmen and
employers it looks as though the adop
tion of new scale would be matter
of time. While the parties are nego
tiating they are likely to do nothing
else; in other words to quit work fo
an indefinite period. 1t seems littl,
strange that the Mckinley bill, which,
according to its advocates, was chief,
designed to increase wages, shoulo
only have resulted in ten, and, in
some cases, in twenty per cent reduc
tions instead.

The Philadelphia Herald says that
the pending investigation into Stat"
Treasury affairs must not be white
washing affair, and gives these rea-
sons: The recent Treasury losses
and the we'll authenticated rumors OF
Treasury manipulations have enlisted
the interest of the taxpayers to such
an extent that they will demand a full
and searching inquiry and a fair re-
port The committee which has
charge of the investigation cannot
afford to go into the whitewashing
business this year.

Much has been written lately about
the threatening letters sent out by
the so-called Molly Mcguire societies
Does it not seem strange that right
here in the very heart of the Goa
region that there is so little known
about these outrages. 1t looks, as if
to save themselves from disruption lit
the near future by state Legislation,
that the Pinkerton agencies are al
this work. Such tricks have beel
done before and in writing sucl
stories they seem to court public
sympathy and are fighting hard tc
keep their place.

The Philadelphia Record saws:

The Philadelphia Record says
We do not wish to al ticipate the in
vestigation of the Mammoth Mine disas.
ter, but venture to predict that the
report will show: First, that State in
spection Of mines does not inspect, and
secondly, that the importation of cheal
and unskilled labor does not pay in the
long run.
The Record never printed truer para.
graph than the above. The inspectors,
as a general thing, are men who have
had experience in the mines themselves,
but the manner in which they are APP
pointed places them above the common
level of their former fellow workmen.
1t would not take very long search in
the mines of this vicinity to find out
that many Of the provisions of the Law
are being violated; noticeaby, the part
relating to hoisting men up from deel
slopes. Who ever, during the past
twenty years, saw an inspector traversinp
the mines alone, or in company of, O,
asking the advice of the miners. In
nearly every case he is accompanied on
his tour of inquiry by one or more OF
the bosses; and where is the poor mine,
that dare speak to him then of any
grievance-real or imaginative There
have been exceptions to this, but the
term OF man who dared to speak of
any such thing in the bosses presence
was of short duration at that collierv.
Experience has taught the miners
that inspection does not inspect, and
until some system is adopted different t.
the one in use at the present time cover
ing the appointment of the inspectors
we may not expect any improvement.
In examining the reports of the An
thracite district for years back, the reader
is confronted with such phrases as ''caus.
ed by his own neglect" "caused by
carelessness on the part of the miner u
ETC., and rarely, if ever, is there any
suggestions offered whereby the loss of
life can be avoided.
This is no fancy sketch written for to
catch the eye of those who blame tn,
inspectors for every accident that occurs
A lifetime spent beneath the ground
in contact with many of the grievance,
that present themselves to miners, and
the manner in which many of these
grievances have been treated en-.
ables us to say in all sincerity that SIN.
spection" does not inspect.

The little Republic of Uruguay has
set to the nations good example d
disarmament. 1t is true that its
standing army consists of only two or
three battalions of troops; but this is
considered too much for peace-loving
people. But while little Uruguay has
thus disarmed, the Senate OF the
United States has begun the task o
establishing a wall of iron and stee
Notifications all around the coast. Il
is stated that some Senators are un
able to sleep o nights in their constant
fear that British fleet may lombard

Like causes produce like results, espe-
cially in countries so closely allied in
sentiment and in interest as the United
States and Canada. In obedience to a
growing demand for relief from tariff
burdens and iniquities, Sir John Mac
Donald has dissolved the Dominion Par
lament, and the new elections will take
place on the 9Th of March. Like the
Protectionists in this country, Sir John
Macdonald and his Tory party have all
at once become quite enamored of the
idea of trade reciprocity; and the Minis
try proposes to renew the old Reciprocity
treaty of 1854 with the United States.
Upon the small concession to Tariff
Reform opinion in Canada Sir John Mac
Donald hopes to secure new vote of
public confidence in the March election.
There is no doubt that a permanent
settlement of all disputes between the
United States and Canada on the basis of
reciprocity is very desirable to the mother
country; but the real pressure that has
brought about this dissolution of the
Dominion Parliament comes from the
Canadian people themselves. The grow
ing demand for Tariff Reform in Canada
could no longer be resisted; and Sir John
Macdonald has thrown out the old treaty
us a tub to the whale. 1t is true that the
Tory organs in Canada assert that the
first advances for reciprocity were made
by the Government at Washington; but
Secretary Blaine has completely spoiled
that story with prompt denial.
The old treaty of reciprocity was good
enough while it lasted; but public
opinion on both sides of the st. Lawrence
has marched beyond that arrangement.
A mere free exchange of raw materials
would not suit the manufacturers of the
United States, who seek wider markets
for their products; nor would it meet the
views of the Canadian Liberals, whose
programme does not stop short of a
complete revision of the existing tariff.
In its general features the contest is
much the same on both sides of the line.
While the Democrats of this country
insist upon Tariff Reform, the Protec-
tionists pass the Mckinley act and prate
about reciprocity treaties with South
America. In Canada the Protectionists,
in order to save the high tariff, talk of
a free exchange of natural products"
with the United States; aud the Liberals
respond with demand for tariff revision
though they have no objection to reci-
procity in the absence of something
better.
Should Sir John Macdonald be sus-
tained upon his programme he would
be obliged to open negotiations for
reciprocity with this country; but his
terms would not be likely to meet with
much favor in Washington. Should he
be defeated the Liberals would doubtless
proceed at once to reform the Canadian
tariff. If this should be met by a like
spirit in the next Congress there would
be less need of Reciprocity treaty with
Canada. So far as the people of this
country are concerned long stride
toward free trade with Canada was made
in the elections of last November. The
elections of March will determine
whether the people of the Dominion are
ready to meet this advance, or whether
they will adhere to the ineffective pro,
gramme of Sir John MacDongld.-Phita
