Were it not for the scurilous personal
attack which disgraced the editorial page
of the county silver organ last week, We
would deem its ranting beneath our
notice, but when with foul tongue, an
attack SO utterly ineXcusable and UNI
called for is made on man whose char
acter is Is well known as that of the
Hon Mark Brewer, ii is no irksome
duty for us TO rise in his defense. AS
to the speech delivered by that gentle
man on the 9th it is certainly to be re-
GREETED that the intense heat and inferior
accommodations kept so many away. 1t
has been our pleasure to hear good
many persons who know good
speech when they hear it, testify TO the
patriotism and SCUM doctrine contained
III the one given on the 9TH, but we did
not, in our most sanguine moments, ever
expect that the editor of the Journal
could appreciate a good patriotic Ind
dependence day address anyway. What
9Ir Chase has laid up against the signers
of the Declaration of Independence is
hard TO tell, yet his scornful allusion
may be based on well founded charges of
rank goldbugism. AS to "stolen sta
tistics," Mr. Chase has well known con-
scientious scruples for it is plainly visi-
bic that the statistics used in his repudi.
alton articles originate in the colossal
intellect OF the editor alone. Mark
Brewer" says he, lis the traitor who
helped deliver the Michigan Republican
delegation to the gold bug platform in
1896" To this ABSURD remark it is only
necessary to recall the astonishing will
ingness with which that party stood by
several of these traitors when election
day came round. There are others
however, who basely deserted that party
in its hour of need, either influenced by
desire for Office or from pecuniary mo-
tives TO whom the terms st raitor' and
"Judas" fit far better. In this connect
ion names are supertluous.

THE ROYAL WAY.
High-BOrn DANES Carry Their Own
bedding on Their Travels.


Few royal folks when travelling re-
auire their bedsteads and bedroom fur
niture to form a portion of their lug
gage, as the queen does, for instance.
But many great ladies there are who
carry their own beds and bed linen,
blankets and quilts, and always a
macintosh sheet to spread over the
mattress to guard against dampness for
lack of sufficient airing in transit
from place to place. Grand Duke Paul
of Russia, it is true, is always,
when travelling, accompanied by bed
stead, which he has had built in Sec
tons, and which is put up by special
mechanic, under the superintendent OF
the royal valet, wherever the grand
duke goes, but then tits simply because
he can seldom, owing to his great
height, meet with one long enough for
his comfort, says the Philadelphia Press.
1t does not appear to be generally
known that among the servants OF the
queen are two bearing the title of her
majesty's tapissiers. One Of them fol-
lows the court wherever II may be,
and the other remains permanently at
Windsor. The duty of these function
aries is TO superintend the packing of
the queens baggage when the court
migrates, and their work is so perfectly
organized that every member of the
establishment concerned knows almost
to q minute when he or she must be
ready to receive visit from the packer.
1t is also the duty of the tapissiers TO
maintain communication from palace to
palace with reference to all matters
which cannot be brought within the
limits of the royal mail boxes to know
by heart all railway and steamship
routes, and to be able to convey any
desired article from one place to an
other by the swiftest and safest method.

NATURAL COKE.
1t Is Claimed There Is a Deposit of II
I'm the State of Utah.

In works of mineralogy ii is learned
that there is such product as natural
coke, but so far as known there has
but one deposit of this commodity been
found in the United States, and this was
In the vicinity of Richmond, Va.
Although the deposits of coal in Utah
are immense in their proportions, IL was
never dreamed that among its commodi-
ties of trade and commerce the state
could boast of beds of this natural coke,
but such is the case, however, and the
Salt Lake Herald is informed that q
short time ago vein of this coke had
been discovered in a section of the coun-
try about 140 miles south of this city,
and within Is miles of a railroad.
This deposit crops out on the surface
for some distance, and a 25 TO 30-foot
tunnel has disclosed body of coke that
Is all of five feet in width, and there Is
every reason to believe that with depth
the size of this deposit will increase.
In quality the coke is all that could be
desired, and at the assay Offices at which
1t has been tested the statement is made
that II is pure article, and that it is
even superior to the manufactured coke,
as 1t is entirely free from sulphur, btu
men, and that it gives out no smoke
when burned, and makes less ash than
the manufactured article.
The new find, which is considered as
being among the most valuable that has
been made in the state, is owned and
controlled by ex-Mayor r. n. Baskin
and several other Salt Lake gentlemen,
who have located Gao acres in the imme-
diate vicinity of the discovery

The new tariff will restore the duties
on Canadian and other foreign coal to
practically those of the Mckinley
law. AS soon as the Wilson law was
enacted, coal from Nova Scotia invaded
the eastern market, driving out the Vir-
ginia and West Virginia product, which
had 10 this time supplied eastern cities,
and compelled the mines Of that section
60 find market elsewhere. The result
was that their coal went west instead Of
east as it formerly had done and with
reduced railroad rates was laid down in
the markets of Cincinnati, Chicago
and other western cities at such low
rates that "A coal war followed by a
railroad rate war was preclpltated
The natural result of this and the re-
auctions in prices which followed was
a reduction in the wages of coal miners,
all of which is thus clearly traceable to
the Wilson law and its reduction in
duties on coal. The coal miners strike
has brought TO the public attention these
and other interesting and important facts
as 10 the effect of the Wilson tariff law
upon this industry and upon the miners
themselves. The Wilson law reduced
the rates of duty ON coal from 15c per ton
81 10 cents per ton. This is just about
the amount Of reduction i'll miners
wages Of which complaint is now being
made and emphasized by the strike an
nounced for July 18th. President Ratch-
ford of the United Mine Workers Asso-
citation, Ill a communication TO the New
York Herald, indicates that the wages
of miners have been reduced since 1898
an average of 80 cents per ton, which
is lust about the amount of the reduction
in duties made by the Wilson law.
Curiously this reduction in wages is
thus coincident as to time and amount
with the reduction III tariff. That the
reduction in wages was a direct result
of the low tariff is thus accurately
shown. 1t is believed, however, that
with the increase Of duty under the
Dinglcy law the previous conditions will
be restored and that the coal miners, as
well as all other workingmen, will feel
the effects of Il new prosperity.
