The Coal Trade.

From Saward's Coal Trade Journal
Not a single change to note in the anthra-
cite conditions from what has existed for
some time. There is very little new business
stirring, and the production is quite sufficient
to meet all requirements. The price list does
not figure in the business that is being done
in tide-water markets, to the full extent, as
stated by buyers while sellers claim the
contrary for there is so much coal due at
the rates that were current before the new
arrangement was made. On the line trade,
between the mines and tide, there is a gen
cral adherence to the price list The hope
that an adherence to the restrictive policy
will prevail is the main feature then there
must needs be a return of confidence on the
part of the buyers, so that they will relieve
the companies of the stocks they are carry
/ ing. So few persons are concerned, in the
| first instance in the making or breaking
of this industry, it ought to be profitable, il
these few can but agree.

THE convention of representatives Of
third-class Pennsylvania cities which is now
in session at Reading, for the purpose of
formulating suggestions for the bctterment of
legislation governing cities of this class, will
be watched with general interest. While its
immediate purpose is to consider methods of
promoting uniformity in legislation, the area
of discussion will doubtless be widcned to
include the whole subject of structural inn
provement in municipal government thus
fertilizing the public mind in behalf of
reforms which, although now distant, will
yet eventually come.

THE ISSUE.

The platform adopted by the Ohio Repub-
lican state convention is looked upon as the
keynote of the campaign, and 50 far as the
Republicans are concerned the battle If 1896
will be fought ON those lines.
The terse, clear-cut tones of the Republi-
cans of that state is heard as follows; 1--WE
are faithfully welded to the great principal
of protection by every tie Of party fealty and
affection, and it is dearer to us now than
ever before 1t now has more devoted sup
porters among the great masses of the
American people, irrespective of party, than
at any previous period in our national history.
1t is everywhere recognized and indorsed as
the great, masterful, triumphant American
principle-the key to our prosperity in busi-
ness, the safest prop to the Treasury Of the
United States and the bulwark of our ma
tional independence and financial honor"
On the question Of finance the party takes
the bold stand for sound money in these
words; 1--WE contend for honest money for
a currency of gold, silver and paper with
which to measure our exchange that shall be
as sound as the government, and as un'
furnished as its honor, and to that end We
favor bimetallism and demand the use oi
both gold and silver as standard money
either in accordance with a ratio to be fixed
by an international agreement if that can b'
obtained or under such restrictions and sucl
provisions to he determined by legislation a
will secure the maintenance of the paritie
of values of the two metals so that the pur
chasing and debt-paying power Of the dollar
whether Of silver, gold or paper, shall be a
all times equal"
In taking this stand for honest money, say
the New York Advertiser, the Ohio conyen
tion has performed a public service of in
mense value 1t will tend to strongthe
business confidence throughout the entir
nation. 1t shows that the Republican part
is not terrified by the threats and bluster q
a handful of free slverte United State
Senators 1t demonstrates that the part
which brought the Union out Of the sloug
of cheap paper money to the solid rock {
