Census Statistics.

Acensus bulletin has been receiyed
this week on mines and mining, in
which the condition Of the GOAL IN
dustry in, Maryland and Alabama
for 1889 Is briefly summarized as
follows: During the year there were
81 establishments in operation IN
Maryland equipped for shipping
coal. The total product for the year
was 2,939,715 short tons, valued at
1851, 474 at the mine, or an aver.
age value of $3.50 per ton. Coal
produced in tho same state for the
year 1880, 2,228,917 short. tons,
valued at 81 .16 per ton; wages paid
for that year, $1,73O,6S9. This
shows decline in the price of coal
in Maryland since 1880 of over 20
per cent. After giving the product
and value of coal for the census
year ending June 30. 1880, the re-
port proceeds to say the number of
hands employed, all classes, was
1874; wages paid, $1,73O,689; av-
erage number OF days worked 196.
If this applies to the year 1880,
then the number of hands employed
and amount of wages paid for 1889
are omitted, serious fault mas
much as the great falling off in the
price of coal must have been ac-
companied by corresponding fall
ing off in the wages of employed.
The Alabama coal fields, the pro-
duct of which is also given, yielded
for the year 1889, 3,378,448 tons,
valued at $3,707 ,426; average num-
Der of persons employed during the
year was, all classes, 6,762; wages
paid, $3,175,356; expenditures for
the manufacture and handling of
coke being excluded from the esti-
mates.

IT is not the intelligent. honest farmers
of Kansas who are responsible for Mr..
Ingalls, defcat.-Idaho Register.
Of course every man is an ignor-
ant rebel and a scoundrel, in the
estimation of the Register, who OPP
poses the republican party, which
the Register editor has not the in
dependence to do; but we suspect
the fact will yet find its way into
his unwilling brain that very large
majority of the Kansas farmers are
of the ignorant, rebel, traitor class,
for there is very strong probable
ity that an overwhelming majority
of them have turned their backs
upon his party. Still we must be
permitted to believe Mr.. ingalls,
would have been reelected had he
not been handicapped by patriotic
revolt against his party.

SOME person whose name is not
revealed has sent US q copy OF the
New York Sun in which there is an
article beginning: "The country
suffered a great loss when Senators
Shoup and Mcconnell of Idaho
took chances in the Senate lottery
a month OF 50 ago, and the big prize
of the long term was drawn by
Shour." We heartily concur in
tho above, and thank the donor for
the paper containing it. Whatever
Nice onnell's errors, all fair-minded
men will, we think, do him the JUS
tice to admit that his always intel
ligentlv directed and phenomenal
activity outweigh them all. It will
be long before Idaho will have an
other Mcconnell in the Senate.

coming from Mrs. Besant's conversion
in England to the esoteric doctrine.
Col. Olcott is Of the opinion that the
English do not understand theosophy,
and his only reason for delivering an
address there was to vindicate the mem
DRY Of his late friend, Nine. Blavatsky,
who was performer of miracles. Col.
Olcott will spend but very short time
in this country. He has been many
years in India, whittier he will proceed
via Yokohoma. Theosophy is not ex-
actly understood in this country, but
regarding it Col. Olcott spoke before
the Theosophical Society in Bombay,
India, and said "We aim to revive
the study Of the Veda and an inquiry
into the alleged latent powers Of the
human soul stated to exfst by many
thousands Of expelimentalists III an
Gent times and our own days. We call
upon every man Of you and every lover
of India to rally round US. Choose any
man here Of either of the old races rep
resented and show us that he is the
right man to lead in either branch Of
this reformatory movement and | will
most gladly enlist as a common soldier
under him. Come let us labor together
like brothers for the welfare Of our
motherland-I India. . Col. Olcott thus
looks upon India as his mother conn-
try instead of America. He is the
author ola work entitled, "Theosophy,
Religion and Occult Science. He has
delivered several hundred lectures in
India and Ceylon, and wishes ii to be
understood that the Philosophical So
ciety has no use for Nihilists, dyna-
miters or Communists. Anything that
sounds mysterious or easternis agree
able to him. His first lecture on the
osophy and H. r. Blavatsky was deliv-
cred in New York City on Thursday
evening last. Admission was free.
