will be Of great interest to the mining
districts was introduced by Representa-
tive Thomas, OF Stark, for q now sys.
tenn OF measuring coal at tho mines,
compromising tho miner accordingly.
Much controversy has been occasioncd
by tho present method oil scrcening coal
before shipment and deducting that
amount from tho miners earnings and
several strikes In Ohio and other states
have resulted. The miners have always
demanded pny for the coal thoy dug
whether II was at for nso or not, on tho
ground that 1t required rs much labor
10 dig one kind Of coal as another. Mr..
Thomas's bill removes this difficulty,
providing that the coal shall DO weigh
cd before screening and tho miners
shall BIO compensated for oil the coal
dug excepting slate and other foreign
substances.
Representative Beard introduced n
bill making 1t a misdemoanor to dump
coal slack, dirt screening or refuse from
papor mills.
MIR. Pardnoy introduced a bill to 70.
quiro street railway companies to place
guards around the trucks on tho cars.
A decided innovation occurred in tho
senate, Mr.. Iden introducing q bill to
provide hospitals for all counties. His
idea Is to have these hospitals provided
for like county inhrmaries, and parti-
cularly for the invalids Of these institu-
tons and childrcn's homes. In order
to maintain these hospitals q levy OF one.
