THE MINING TROUBLE.

Yesterday at Pocahontas was busy
day in military circles. One of the
new machine guns belonging to the
Richmond Howitzers was planted on
Reservoir Hill, commanding the entire
town. A Calling gun was mounted on
Silver Ridge, overlooking the coal tipple
and ovens of the Southwest Company,
and all arrangements made as though
preparing for siege of the town.
About one hundred and fifty of the
men from New York to work in the
mines of the Southwest Virginia I'm.
provement Company packed their be.
longings and started to march out of
the town, declaring that the situation
had been misrepresented to them.
They had proceeded about half mile
when they were rounded up by troops
and held till 8 o'clock, when they were
marched back to the stockade. These
men are mostly Italians and are &C.
companied by padrone.
A dispatch from Bluefeld. W. Va,
says the Italians brought there refused
to work yesterday. Two hundred left
the Southwest Virginia mines yester-
day morning. They will be sent be ok
north by the company. The Southwest
Company claim to have four hundred
men at the mines oday. The stampede
of new miners has encouraged the
strikers.

UNDER democratic rule the State tax
in New York was 2.1S mills. Under
republican rule there it is 3.24 mills.
And YET the republicans say the demo-
cratic rule was corrupt. But while
corruption in government and decrease
of taxation are incompatible, corruption
and increase of taxation are just the
reverse. The condition of affairs after
modern reformation is worse than it
was before.
