COAL CHARITY.
The County Commissioners Rssoind Their
Resolution for Free OOal-They We're
Being Imposed Upon.

The county commissioners were in
special session to-day and had an inter-
esting time with the coal question.
Some were there wanting coal while
others from the country we're on hand to
protest against giving out coal, claiming
it was going to u~ndeservlng parties.
The commissioners have realized for
some time that they we're being inn
posed upon by the carelessness OF town
ship chairmen in endorsing the applica-
tions of Tom, Dick and Harry for this
charity coal and that many others who
were more deserving but modest in ap-
plying were not getting il, 90 they re-
scinded their action OF October last,
this afternoon, and have put q stop TO
the whole business. So far orders for
200 tons OF coal have been received and
orders for as much more are supposed to
be issued and ready TO be presented
when coal 10 received. It is pitiful that
anyone should be reduced to the neces-
sity OF receiving aid IN this way and the
destitute should be helped; but it is
worse to be deplorec that the selfishness
OF human nature should so crop ont in
able-bodied manhood that it will take
advantage OF a charitable movement OF
this kind and bring it into reproach and
thus deprive the actually destitute of
needed relief. There ought to be a poor
commissioner appointed whose sole duty
would be TO attend to giving proper re-
lief from this time until spring.
