Thoughts of a Day

Tears and tears seem TO be the part
of some. Vet not always. While these
people are wringing their hands in
agony, those are joyous with pleasure.
Such is the divine sarcasm OF 1t all.
Perhaps one of the saddest catastrO-
Plies of the year is that of the eXplo-
sion in the mine at Scottdale, Pa. last
week. One hundred and fifty able
bodied men were swept into eternity
within Il moment. No one seemed to
be to blame. 1t was an accident, a
chance flow Of gas. The lights caused
an explosion and - it was but the
work Of moment. Here is a short
description of the result. "When they
(the exploring paryl entered the mine
a sight impossible to picture met them.
Bank cars, mules and, more terrible
than all, men were piled in compact
mass against the ribs, or walls of coal,
and not a living thing was i'll the
wreckage. 1t was almost as solid as
the coal itself, so terrific was the force
of the explosion. This obstruction was
removed with difficulty and they en-
tered chamber of horrors. The first
object they discovered after leaving
the main entry was rubber boot. In
they found human head but nowhere
in sight was the trunk that had borne
it but few minutes before. After
walking distance they found the
trunk, the ragged neck with the blood
oozing from it telling the story of the
appalling disaster. Working their way
in, the band found the bodies strewn
along the gangway.
One unfortunate met death while on
his knees i'll prayer, with his hands
clasped and eyes uplifted. His body
was found in this position" 1t was Il
pathetic picture. What a mountain of
grief this comprehends! For each
dead miner there may be father,
mother, wife and children to mourn.
Then too, the majority are foreigners.
Left desolate III strange land, their
support gone, their dearest friend
dead! The lot is sad. Yet such is the
grief some must suffer. They are
born to suffer, say some. They are
compelled to take the roughness of the
world. Poor unfortunstes.

John +. Coope, one of the most in
fluential citizens of Inlay City, has
been suffering from a disease of the
head for a long time and nothing
seemed to do him good until last week
when the head was trephined, a piece
of his skull, fully an inch square, be-
ing taken out. lie is now doing well.
The police of Saginaw have recover
ed about 81 900 worth of the diamonds
that the two thieves arrested there
stole from New York city last Novem-
Der. They were found on the person
of Louis Thomson, who readily gave
them up and denied knowing anything
about the theft of the stones or that
they were stolen.
The Michigan Central railroad com
pany cut the wires of the Saginaw cleo
trio railroad company because it inter
fered with the steam railroad, at least
the Michigan Central people claimed it
did. The electric railroad managers
sued the steam railroad directors for
S20, 900, and yesterday recovered ver-
dict of S933.03 and costs. This settles
the right of steam railroad companies
to cut electric wires, unless the case is
taken TO the supreme court.

today than nine years ago. Still the
Equalization Lists show that Berlin, a
favorite instance with the Democrat,
was assessed on real estate, S464, 900 in
1888 and S5O3, $40 in 1890. The Demo-
crat may explain this.
One more matter of small moment
remains. The Democrat says with the
serenity of saint.
"The whole thing is explained by the
fact that in her charter she is only al
lowed to raise per cent on assessed
valuation. During the recent years,
owing to increase in city expenses, she
has been obliged to raise her assessed
valuation above her actual valuation
in many instances, in order to raise
money enough at the 2 per cent fol
city purposes
Now, if we could persuade ourselves
from what we have seen, that Port Hu.
ron had actually raised the assessed
valuation above the actual valuation,
there might be ground for the argu.
ment. But that is even an impossible
assumption. And again the city assess.
ment has nothing to do with the as
sessment on which State and County
taxes are levied. By diabolical ar.
rangement in the city charter they
take two entirely different assessments,
one for the city revenue, which may
concern the 2 per cent dodge, and one
for State and County taxes.
We hope that now the Democrat
may take the time and space to discuss
at length this question. There are a
few little questions on this subject
which the people would like answered
and probably the child of city Doodle
can answer them.
