The Coal Trade.

Shipments of coal from the mines of

in long tons
For week ending July u, 189l...... l13 4I6
year to same date. .............l, 673, 2l6
Decrease compared with last year.. 81, $40
The latest news from the markets is
CLEANED as follows:
There is not much change to report in the
general condition of the bitumnous coal
market. The demand for soft coal is increas-
ing us sea freights from Philadelphia advance,
and the troubles in the Clearfield and other
regions are far from quoted. In those places
operators are suffering from renewals of
strikes and a general decentralization ofIabor,
which seriously interteres with the output.
Consumers of these particular Goals are turn
ing elsewhere for supplies, while the rise in
ocean freight rates stimulates orders from the
consumers in question.
The movement Of coal to tide is not as good
as it recently has BEEN and some fears are
entertained that this poor service will CON
tinue for some time.
Serious differences have arisen between the
operators in the Pocahontas region and the
purchasers of their output. This trouble,
when sifted, will be found to be a revival of
the question, in practical form Can the
Norfolk 4 Western Railroad keep on carrying
coal at Il loss? That road has of late been
doing largely increased business, ola nature,
however that is not desirable, since it is not
profitable
At Boston all the life seems to haye fallen
out of the bituminous coal market. 1t is
now plentiful where a fortnight or three
weeks ago it was scarce. 1t is now selling for
the same prices on the open market as it was
before the strike, where but few weeks ago
it was selling for 81 per ton. The prediction
that with the termination Of the coal strike
the demand for coal would be very heavy,
seems to have been poor one. On cars here
bItuminous coal is worth So. l0a350 per ton.

A Curious Individuality.

The Coal Trade Journal cites the fol-
lowing leverage New England com
ment on the tariff question y
Coal should be put on the free list for the
benefit of important industries in New Eng
land and on the Pacific slope, which are now
taxed for the profit of owners of coal mines
who export large quantities of coal into
Canada every year, although they say they
must be protected by tariff duty against
importations from this country.
But so long as republican statesmen
of New England seem to favor dutiable
coal, the Cumberland Meas will con-
tend that the manufacturers will be
aggrieved, if not insulted by relieving
them of - per- cent. tax upon their
fuel.
In fact, we can almost learn from
the Ne,cs that the Yankee is meyer
really happy except when he is paying
high taxes.

High Protection Friendship for Coal
The Cumberland NetcS is invited to
investigate Mr. Mills assurance
that it was not his fault that coal and
iron were on the Cutiable list in his bill. He
had been compelled to compromise on these
matters in order to get his bill through.
Now, the question is-was Mr.. Mills
compelled to compromise" with re-
publicans?
If so, how did coal get on the free
list of the Allison bill
The JOURNAL believes that Il fair,
earnest inquiry into this matter will
persuade the Ners that Its claim of
special and continuous friendship for
dutiable coal under high protection
auspices is subject to 100 per cent
discount.
The gentlemen with whom Mr..
Mills was ''compelled to compromise
were his party associates, and they
were the men who kept coal where

it from 80 cents ton, the level to
which such men as Gen. Garfield and

What on ealth has race, religion or

politics to do with the business man

be a native born or naturalized citizen
makes no difference, all have equal
rights; but, for heavens sake. do not
let us allow any race, religion or ma

us because he is supposed to represent

receive no more consideration in the

is about us much sense in allowing
politics to enter the one as the other.

Political,

The JOURNAL wants to guess right
now that Billy McKeg has not actual
ly decided in his own mind not to run
again. The guess is based on a hind
sight retrospect of Billy's career, a
foresight perspective Of Billy's luck, a
globeslght review of Billy's former
destinations, and a sidelight vista of
Billy's way Of thanking fight until
the enemy shoves its Goliath in sight.
AS long as our little David has to meet
the same sort of Phillistinian champion
he feels that the welcome sun of
political luck still loves to light his
path to popular glory.

The trustees OF Central school,
Homecoming, make Il mistake in APP
pealing to town meetings for instruc-
tons concerning the performance Of a
given duty,
Public opinion is tickle old jade
anyway, and when it gets chance to
air its several degrees and diverse
forms of ignorance, it is bound to af-
ford an aggressive example of how not
to do it.
Hence, wherever public opinion is
at all divided, the most uncertain way
to ascertain what is not wanted is to
submit it to a town meeting.
The trustees must eventually act
upon their own convictions of what is
just to pupil and teacher, and best for
all concerned, and it were better that
they do it without any reference what
ever to the clash Of private with public
interests

position Of sub-treasurer CT the United

ington's schooling as fnancier it is
not strange that he made record for

his credit also that his conscientious
performance of duty soon attracted
public confidence among strangers and
his uniform courtesy brought to him
