"There was an investigation of the coal com.

1871, the testimony taken in which showed

These great corporations had determined not to
yield to their men; as they were mine owners
aud coal sellers as we'll as carriers, they refused
to take coal for their competitors. The result
was that the price of coal was doubled, reisihf
to $I2 a ton, the resumption by private miners
was stopped, and they, the workingmen, and
the consumer were all delivered over to the
tender mercies of the six great companies. The

IngerSOll on the Miners Strike.


The question of wages for the coal miners
ought to be settled by the employers, and it
would be if the employers we're civilized.
1t is easy to ascertain what wages ought to
be paid 1t is easy to find out how much it
costs for good, wholesome food, decent clothing,
for rent. to take care OF the children. When
this is found out it is easy to say what wages
should be.
When men work all day and just get enough
to keep life in them 50 that they can work next
day; when nothing can be saved; when old age
can have only rag and crust; when youth
of industry ends in poverty and want, it is
about time for the decent, the intelligent, the
humane to assist the children OF toll.
l do not blame the miners tor striking.
Thev must strike or starve. All blame them
for is for not acting together. Every miner IN
the United States should strike, and then IT
they demanded only the reasonable they would
succeed.
NV sympathes are with the men and women
who toil-to whom the future promises nothing
but work and want-nothing but failure at last.
As the employers are not civilized enough to
act fairly, | advocate general strike-a claim
for fair and reasonable wages, and hope that all
miners will have sense enough to join. know
of no other way for them to protect them
selves. If they are reasonable vast majority
Of the people will be with them. So, l say,
success to the strike.
If employers import !, borers who will work
for less than an American can live on, then
say stop the Importation, and 1t such labor
ers come here of their own accord, then say,
by legislation send them back and stop their
coming.
l believe in protection to American manu-
facturers and to American laborers.

STRIKE ON AGAIN.
The Trouble Over the Employment Of
Negro Women in a Southern Cotton
Hill Breaks Out Afresh.

Atlanta, Ga, August 6.-The strike
OF 400 operatives of the Fulton Bag
and Cotton Mills against the employ
ment of negro labor, which was sup
posed to have been settled yesterday af-
ternoon, is on again to-day. A verbal
agreement was reached between the
strikers and President Jacob Elsas, OF
the company and ii was given out by
both sides that the trouble had been
adjusted. President Elsas announced
his willingness to discharge the negro
women to whom objection had been
made. and it was not supposed that
any difficulties would be encountered
in agreeing upon written contract.
When the contract drawn up by the
strikers committee was presented to
Mr.. Elsas this morning he declined to
sign it. and the settlement was de-
clared off. The cause Of the new dis
agreement is the demand of the strik-
ers that the mill not only withdraw
the women, who were the cause of the
strike, but all other negroes employed
in the mill except firemen and scrub
women be removed, and the mill OBJ
ligate itself not TO discharge the white
men. The mill management objected,
claiming that they were not included
in the understanding reached yesterday.
