THE WESTERN MINERS.
A Strong Plea Made in Their Behalf by
Correspondent.


To all friends of labor interested in
healthy promotion and advancement of
the interests of labor. Representatives of
the bituminous miners OF Pennsylvania
are visiting this region, soliciting aid for
the men now on strike, and urgently re-
quest that practical support so necessary
in assisting favorable and speedy settle
ment To those familiar with conditions
past and present under which the men of
the anthracite region labor it seems like
stretching point to expect any division
of the mere pittance paid out in wages,
owing to the restricted time and other
causes that initiate against them, and or
dinarily what might seem imposition
partakes of an entirely different aspecJ
under the extraordinary circumstances
that compel these men to look for succor
and support. They are now in the midst
of one of the mightiest struggles that or.
ganiZed labor ever engaged in, and the
largest numerically. that the miners of
this country ever entered into forced, as
they contend, (and admittedly conceded
by many leading operators) by dire neces
sty, being unable under the proposed
schedule to earn sufiiCienCy to satisfy
the cravings of hunger and while they
have proposed and are anxious to COM
promise on basis that will admit of u
fair and honorable settlement, the con
trolling factors among the operators per-
sistently refuse, and determinedly insis,
on the acceptance of the old terms.
In the enactment of a strike the old
story is repeated, and soon narrows down
to the usual level of stomachs versus
dollars, and unless assistance is rendered
the sequel is easily told. Those people
naturally turn and look for assistance
from their fellow-w orkmen, more forUu-
nately situated, and though the offerings
baa aVfnp ca n hnVr no l.
fully received and gratefully appreciated.
Gratitude is a characteristic always COM
mendable, and rejecting on the not far
distant past, we remember when the
workingmen of the anthracite region
were in the throes of a great struggle, con
tending for what they deemed a just
right, appeals were sent forth similar in
nature and intent, and a cheering and
practical response was the result, and
none displayed more eRrnestness than the
bituminous miners, some of whom now,
no doubt, are basking in the sunlight of
poverty and whose children are tasting
its sweetest dregs.
Impelled by this thought, we cheerfully
introduce Messrs. Owen Garrity and
Patrick McGowen, duly appointed repre-
sentatives of those men, and urge that
their reception may be kind and consid-
crate, and though circumstances may pre-
vent general financial assistance, the rela-
lions OF the past should operate friendly
feeling, aud impress them with the fact
that their kindness has not been forgotten.
They have visited Pottsville, Minersville,
st. Clair and surroundings, and visited
Mahanoy City on Saturday. They will
visit Shenandoah on Friday and Satur
day, and it IS hoped their visit will be
productive of much good

According to the predictions of a we'll
known weather prophet a warm
wave VIII set in tomorrow or the next
day, with much severity and will pass
over the country. A wave of cooler air
from polar regions will flow in after the
disturbances and dominate the weather
for several days. On and touching the
9th and 10th it will grow very warm
again, and series of rains and storms
Will set in, with many prospects Of con
tinuing indefinitely. This is the entrance
of the summer solstice and showery,
stormy weather, with unusal displays of
lightning, may be expected until the
solstice period is passed. A storm period
is central on the l4th, an equinox of Npr.
curry is central on the 10th, and the full
moon is on the 18th, all within few days
on the earth's turning point on the 2l5t.
therefore, many startling electrical
storms will be natural from about the
l4th, until after the reactionary disturb
ances due normally on the goth and 2lst.
About the 22d to 2jth much cooler weather
may be expected, with q probable Cessa-
tion of rains and storms The last June
storm period is from the 26th to 2gth, dur
ing which time a wave of intense warmth
will pass over this country, as well AS
other parts of the globe and many at
mospheric and electri al disturbances
may be expected about 25th TO 29th The

DEs MONIES, May 23.-Mayor Hills yes
terday met committee of striking miners
and asked that they permit enough coal TO be
mined 10 keep the water works going. The
miners said they would not permit It. The
water works will be shut down Thursday.
Does such a text call for any COM
mentary? Does it not preach its own SER
mon! Here we have the application of a
power to a lawfully organized COM
munity, that is coercive, despotic and de-
fiant of the law. If those who promote
strikes imagine for an instant that they
can pursue such policy as indicated by
the dispatch and that the people will re-
main massive and submissive under it,
thew are sadly mistaken. The rights OF
laborjng men are to be guarded as
saeredlv and as much defended as those
of any other citizens. The equities OF
labor demanding recognition are to be
Given as much consideration as any other.
But neither labor nor capital. employed
nor employer, will be permitted TO pun
ish the innocent nor put thumbserews
upon the communities of the land to COM
pass their private ends. Communities
have rights as sacred as those of individ-
nails. and both capital and labor will
presently discover that they will be as
serted and maintained. The Des Moines
spectacle is humiliating, slavish and un-
endurable.

THE insult to the American flag in a
Canadian city will, of course. be apollo
gized for by the Dominion Government
Nevertheless, it will be well for the
United States Secretary to give the Cana
dian authorities very emphatically to un-
derstand that they must teach their peo-
pie better manners, since this is the third
or fourth time this thing has happened.
In each case it was the result Of individ-
ual cussedness and not of national action
or official stupidity. Why any English
man should be offended by the display
of friendly flag on festival occasion,
passes comprehension. When our ma
tiopal holiday is celebrated the flags OF
breezes. and it is considered rather COM
pli1nent than otherwise, so long as no
banner is placed in position of domi-
nance over the Stars and Stripes. The
soldiers who tore down the American
flag in Canada from over ConsuPs door
ought to be punished, and our Govern
ment should insist upon it for two rea-
sons: to establish teaching precedent
that will tend to prevent similar outrages,
and to prove to the world that we will
not put up tamely with insults to the
national emblem.
