10 Quality.

There are no better steam Goals in
tne world than those mined iE parts of
West Virginia, Maryland and in some
portions of Pennsylvania. The cost
per ton paid for mining is on a very
low basis and that basis varies in
degree even in the States referred to,
and in mines producing coal which
completes in the markets of the Atlantic
seaboard one with the other the mere
matter of wages per ton for mining
being a small fraction of the very
moderate cost of delivery at the point
of consumption. The product of the
mines referred to is used to the best
advantage ON land and sea the mere
fact that inferior coal can be had at a
less rate may at times tempt the
cupidity Of the steam user who sees
the present small gain but loses sight
Of the ultimate larger loss. The coal
mined in Great Britain costs more per
ton than d, es the American coal re-
ferred to, and it is no better in quality.
We have inferior Goals marketed at
the staboard which can compete with
the poorer grades from elsewhere, but
if quality is the criterion there is no.
thing to equal our Goals from the dis
tricts above referred to.-Coal Trade

What pOcahOutaS Does,

In Il resolution against free coal,
adopted by the Chamber of Commerce
of Norfolk, it is stated that Virginia and
West Virginia furnish over 3,500,000
tons of bituminous coal for shipment
from Lambert's Point aud Newport
News, employing 5000 vessels for
cargo and annually supplying 5000
steamships with fuel.

The Chances Against is.

In view of the discussion over the
removal of the duty on coal, Il recent
report made to the State Department
on the cost of Nova Scotia coal is of
interest. This report puts the cost of
Cape Breton coal at the shipping ports
at 50 so per long toL for screened coal,
81 80 for run of niue" and l.l0 for
slack. The coal averages - miles
haul to ports. and the wages paid to
miners are from y to 81 cents per ton.
Pictou coal shipped at PIctou costs
from so cents to $3.50. and Spring Hill
coal at Parrsboro from. 81 to $2.75.
The average freight rates from Nova
Scotia ports to Boston, by sailing
vessel, are $l.9O per ton; this could
probably be reduced somewhat if large
cargoes were assured. Considering
the qualities of coal with which it
would come IN competition, it is prob
able that only the better grades could
be marketed. We may add that our
Boston market report this week quotes
bituminous coal at So 10 to $3 50 per
ton.-Engineering and Mining Journal.

He ElOOred the AgitatOr.

When the labor agitator had finished
prating about the wrongs of laboring
men, a man in the crowd approached
him and said:
"You say you are out of work ?"
"That's what | said," replied the
labor agitator.
Lost yoar job on account of the
hard times ,"
Yes"
"And that's why you talk about re
venge and dynamite and all that ?"
"That's it,"
well, I'll give you Il job"
"Me."
Eyes, you"
Better give it to Jim over there.
He needs it more than do"
"No. I'll give it to you. You were
crying for work. Come along with
me-"
The labor agitator shifted about
nervously.
MAYBE cant do it," he said.
sob, yes, you can. Come on"
"How much will you pay ?"
1.-TWO dollars day."
1.-TWO dollars day. Do you think
I'd work for that ~
"ln dull times, certainly, if you
really want work. Why not !"
It's not enough. No sir I'll not
do'a stroke of work for less than $3.50
day"
"All right; III give you $3.50.
Come on"
The agitator was hoored for a
minute but only for a minute.
"Will you give my friends here
work. too" he asked.
Il can't do that"
"Well, do you think I'll leave them !.
DO YOU think I'll turn my back on
them? No, sir"
You can help them better if you're
at work than you can if you're loafing."
Yes. And I'd be paying dues INTO
the union while the rest were living on
its reserve fund. No, sir; | won't do
it. | won't do 1t. You can't trap me
into anything like that. Let 'em get
