passes over the large scale, g,S4O lbs. or one
ssZ0nn TOM, must be produced bn the MINER


"long TOM must be produced by the miner.
Both scales are kept even or very near
it on the above basis. The more of
the smaller sizes are demanded the
poorer the wages and return to the
miner, Machinery has been intro
duced by which pea-coal is manufac-
tured more easily than any other
kind. Pea-coal is in great demand
and "buckwheat" also, but it is min
ed free of charge SO far as the COM
pany is concerned. Where is the
justice in such a system?
There is no possibility of ascertain
ing the number of tons of pea and
buckwheat produced each year.
Another point should be made here:
Inspectors should be compelled to
state the number of tons of each kind
Of coal produced yearly. / believe
that Is per cent to 80 per cent of the
forty-four millions of tons produced
in 1891 was "pea" and "buckwheat."
How the companies would laugh at
such high estimate!
[ hope you can understand the
above mentioned process. Always
keep in mind the fact when you see
large pile of ''pea" or buckwheat' or
''birdseye," that the miner got nothing
for blasting and loading 1t. Not even
his powder. He is compelled to paw
for powder to produce coal which he
gets nothing for. This is the most
outrageous and damnable system of
robbery ever tolerated in a civilized
community. | have told you how the
companies claim the right to perpe-
trate such a wrong. Do you think
that any body of sane men ever agreed
to such a procedure? 1 do not.
Where the car system is in vogue the
miners receive so much for the car
subject to dOckage. The ton system
on one side Of the breaker and the
car system on the other is familari-
ty met every day. The company here
also figures the same as in the other
system. Erery time mule IS killed the
miner IS locked little more for q fem
days. All expenses are taken out of
the miners. You will be locked for
"culm'' and the company will dunn
it in the fire room and use it to gen.
crate steam. Thus they make money
on you both ways. ''Culm' is now in
use by great many engines, and the
collieries use it altogether. Whv
should the miner be locked for send.
ing out commodity which is indis-
pensable? am sure that manic
would follow the announcement .sNo

A prominent allianceman from
Polk county writes as follows: >
Il cannot mingle my tears with
those who weep over the Mr.. Donnel-
ly's quarrel with DR.. Fish for 1 am
really glad of it. The conviction has
crept upon me gradually that there
was "a niger in the woodpile" and |
am not surprised as much as l might
be at the revelations in the REPRE-
SENTATIVE. That DR.. Fish has in
jured our cause almost beyond our
power to compute, there is not the
slightest doubt; and that he has it in
his power to still further injure us is
also apparent, and as long as the pub
lie read only one side of the contro-
versy they are apt to be misled by his
cant"

THE PAY OF MINERS!
Continued from page g.

When the coal goes through the
breaker, or final process, it is drawn
in large cars, the cars which go to
market, and again weighed. This
time 1000 lbs. makes a ton! The miner
has nothing to do with it now. Sup
pose | illustrate. We say that 500
cars have been hoisted from the shaft,
and sent to the "breaker." Those
500 cars would weigh about / 200 tons,
we will say. The weighmaster of
these cars records the full amount
this day., 900 tons. Let there be
no docking this day. The 500 cars
are dumped and the processes gone
through with. The marketable coal
is as follows.

Now we have the same amount
credited to the miners on the other
scale, but, as the pea-coal and buck
wheat are not to be paid for, the
large scale Is $50 tons behind the small
one! The next day the same amount
is produced but goes through the fol-
lowing:
Dockage on the small scale for
ebony" crock" and ''culm,' 200
Short weight $50
Total, > $50
This would give the company $50
tons to ''help them along"

THE OnAMIOS.

On next Wednesday night, Sept
9th, the opening of the regular season
at the Opera House will take place
Manager Dentler has secured Mr..
Paul Barnes, the best German Come
dian now before the public, and his
excellent company for the occasion.
The play in which Mr.. Barnes ap-
pears is entitled "The Chamois Hun
ter a German Comedy in four acts.
In speaking of the piece the Dra-
matte MiryOr has to say:
The curtain has never been rung
up on better comedy than the
"Chamois Hunter. 1t is the play
of life time full of human interest
and human love ranging in the char
acter from bright and innocent child
hood to the full radiance of tender old
age.
Depicting the life of young noun
talneer who from the depths of de-
spalr is raised to wealth and affluence.
There is self possessed villain, a little
child of infantile beauty and angelic
sweetness that go to make up part
OF this great story.
The Chamois Hunter as presented
by Mr.. Barnes and his excellent COM
pany is put upon the stage in splen-
did manner. The scenery is entirely
new and picturesque. The merit of
the play is that it is full Of comedy
and sweet singing and has series of
those natural pictures and life like
characters that hold the audience from
beginning to END.

and attention to their other--various
business interests, and especially to
that of the Benton Mills in which they
hare large proprietary interests, Messrs.
&. l.. and c. B. McHenry will retire
from the mercantile business on or
about September Ist. These energetic,
progressive ard popular young men
have in the less than five years of their
business career fully demonstrated
what push and enterprise can do, and
give ample evidence that whatever
business venture they may enter sue
cess2 is assured. Both are popular
with the public and many regrets will
no doubt be expressed by their host Of
patrons and friends upon the cessation
of their career of merchandising. They
will be succeeded by Messrs. Penning-
ton, Moore & Seely, who are well
known throughout this section of the
state as honorable and reputable bust
ness men OF large experience in mer-
chandising, and who enjoy the conf.
dence and esteem Of the public. We
welcome them to Benton and wish
them unlimited success in their new
Decentralization argus.
