NEGROES AS class are not the smart
est people in the world, by long odds,
but that some of them are not as fool
ish as some of the superior race, Is
proved by the fact that those employed
at the Pocahontas coal mines have
broken the general coal strike by re-
fusing to obey the orders of Mr.. Bride,
president of the coal miners associa-
ton, to throw down their tools and
abandon work until all the demands of
all the miners in all the coal mines of
the country shall be complied with.
They are assured of steady and perma-
nent employment at wages that will en-
able them to live comfortably and pro
vide for their families, and they are not
silly enough to deprive themselves of
their means of livelihood because some
white men in other States want shorter
hours and more pay than they are now
receiving.

income tax, and would like to see that
part of the. Wilson bill containing 1T
killed" For Mr.. Cleveland's sake, as
we'll as for that of the party that elect
ed him, it is hoped the correspondent
referred to has been misinformed. An
income tax tax is now, and for long
time has been, collected in several of
the States, and is not looked upon as
more ''inquisitorial" and unjust than
anv other tax. As the men with sur
plus incomes have acquired their riches
by means of the government, they
surely should not be exempted from
the payment of their share of the gov
ernment's expenses, and, if they shall
be, woe to the party by which that ex
emption shall come.

night last night. The camp was damp
and cold and the men wrapped them
selves in the canvas tents to keep
warm. There were two fights during
the night, the first over a frying pan

In Clarksburg the Commonweal could
not even get drink, the pumps having
been chained, so the men were forced
to depend on the farm houses along the
way. The day was very hot and dust
which hung ike a cloud over the

THERE Is reason to fear that unless
some true history Of the war between
the States be adopted by the schools Of
the South, many of the children of this
section; will be taught, as all Of those
in the North have been, to believe that
their fathers fought in an unholy and
unconstitutional cause. There are
plenty of such histories, and why they
should not be used in southern schools,
instead of those written either by preju-
diced or ill-informed northern men, is
not easily understood. Such histories
show that the principles for which the

ODD FELLOWS PROCESSION STOPPED.
An Odd Fellows procession attempted
to march through the Capitol grounds
in Washington yesterday, but was
turned back at the entrance by the
Capitol police. The officials explained
that the law prohibits any organizations
as such in a parade entering the
grounds, and that no exception could
be made. The Odd Fellows made some
remonstrance on account of the fact
that their plain of march embraced the
grounds, and that it would be difficult
10 turn about in the street, as the pro-
cession was long and included several
carriages; but, when assured that the
law permitted no exceptions, they
quietly submitted and retraced their
steps. The incident will doubtless
prove a precedent if Mr.. Coxey at
tempts to invade the Capitol grounds
with his organization, as he has said
it was his intention to do.
