What Caused the Strike.
rom the Chicago Dispatch.


There are editors of newspa
pers who are so heartless or so
blind that they make the asser-
ton that the strike of the coal
miners has been broguht about
for political effect.
Do the editors of these newspa-
pers read the statements made by
the miners? If they do read them,
do they know what they mean {!
The only cause for the strike is
starvation. Human beings can
no longer endure the hopeless
struggle for existence under the
conditions imposed by the mine
operators.
In the great Hooking valley of
ONO the average wage per miner
in one of the largest mines from
October |. 1896, To June |. 1897.
or during period OF eigh; months
was $50 per man. Think of that.
gentleman of the press-$I5O
Il month wage Fer man Is
there any reason in accusing men
of political objects in striking
under such pay as that?
The only principle involved is
that of living wages. Men can
not support family On So 30 .
month indeed, it would not be
decent support tor Il single man.
To demand bread enough to sus-
tam life is not political action,
and all charges of such intent are
not only cruel and baseless, but
incendiary.
ND. Ratchtord, president of the
| tnited Mine Workers of America.
states tho case in plain and truth
tul language when he says: "Our
present suspension is not of our
choice. 1t is forced upon us by
the continuous reductions in
wages until the point Is reached
where living by our industry is
no longer possible
1t is not politics, but it is star
vation that has caused the strike.

OUR COMMISSIONS in
ENGLAND.
Baron ROthschild Must BE Con-
suited Before Answer is Given.

A conference was held in Lon
don at the foreign office between
Senator Wolcott, former Vice
Presindent Stevenson, and Gen
eral Paine, the members of the
United States Bimetallic Commits
sion, ard Ambassador Hay, Lord
Salisbury, Sir Michael Hicks
Beach. chancellor of the excheq-
uer; Mr.. Arthur Baliour. first lord
of the treasury, and Lord George
Hamilton, secretary of state for
India.
The conference, which lasted
an hour, was preliminary to the
carrying on of further negotia,
tions on the subject of interna.
tional bimetallism. The Ameri
can did most Of the talking.
Lord Salisbury inquired what
were the powers of the American
commissioners, and was informed
that they stand authorized TO
make arrangements for the hold
ing of an international conference
or to negotiate treaty of inter
national bimetallism. which they
might submit TO their government
for ratification.
1t was stated also that France
was ready to co operate with the
| nited States, Great Britain, and
Germany in reaching an agree
ment for international bimetalism.
The British representatives
present made no statement indi-
eating their intentions in the mat
ter. Consultations of high British
officials will be held before an.
other meeting with the American
commissioners. and in the mean
time the latter will privately dis
cuss the matter with Baron de
Rothschild and other tinanciers
and edeavor TO secure their sup.
port.
Lord Salisbury accompanied
Messrs. Wolcott. Stevenson. and
Paine to luncheon at Windsor,
when they were received by the
Queen and presented to her maj
esty their commissions as special
ENJOYS. The reception was en-.
tirely formal.

The Culture of the Sugar Beet.

The sugar bill of this country, paid to
foreigners foots over 500, 900, 900. 1t is
believed that this external expenditure
can be greatly diminished, and a profit
able industry for our farmers be built up,
by promoting the cultivation of the sugar
beet. For several years the Agricultural
Department has given attention to the
raising of ''high hereditary sugar beet
Seed This seed is rare and hard to get.
1t is said to be worth its weight in gold.
The Department possesses only about five
pounds of it, but the quality of this
amount is exceedingly choice. This seed
is being distributed among the expert
mental stations in the different States. 1t
will be sent as far south as the Carolinas
and Texas. Thence it will be forwarded
to leading agricuturists with instructions
regarding the cultivation of the plants
and arrangements for the return of sam
pies to the stations in the fall for ANALYSIS.
Interest in sugar beet culture will also be
awakened by bulletins prepared by ex-
perts in the Department and issued to the
farming districts. Capital will not be
lacking for the building of factories to CON
vert the product into sugar if the farmers
will raise the beets. [Zion's Herald

Steel Four-Masted Schooners,

E. Platt Stratton, chief engineer survey
or to the Record of American and Foreign
Shipping, New York, is authority for the
statement that steel schooner will carry
n per cent. more cargo than wooden YES
sci of the same displacement. Mr.. STRAIT
ton suggests that tall steel pole masts
would be far superior to wooden masts,
as the steel masts would be all in one piece
from keel to truck. and by placing the
spring stays directly under the trucks the
sails would be under the stays, thus doing
away with the necessity of lifting the sails
over the stays in lacking ship. The very
large increase in the carrying capacity of
steel schooner over a wooden one, ought
to suggest to the owners of our big four
masted schooners the economy and desir-
ability of adopting steel for the construc-
ton of their vessels instead of wood. The
sails of the steel schooner could be brazil
ed into the mast. This would enable
very small crew, or rather the watch Oh
deck, to do large amount of shortening
sail with very little labor. BY simply
Stacking off the halyards couple of feet
the sails could be reefed, after the head
and upper part of the sail had been brazil
ed in close to the mast. We hope before
long to be able to state that one of our en-
terprising vessel owners has placed a con
tract for 1000 ton steel schooner, and
we doubt not that either Wilmington,
Del, or Newport News, will be the place
to have the honor of having constructed
the first American steel schooner for sea
service We already have a four masted
steel schooner (the Honolulu) running out
of san Francisco. Her steel pole masts
are all of the same length and she carries
no crosstrees or gaffs. The sails are of the
of t11llt ton rr,Nn
long this vessel gets a sufficient amount
of sail area to propel her / knots an hour
in whole sail breeze. The Honolulu's
rigging is all set up by means Of turn
buckles, no lanyards being used. [Ameri-

They saw her fall, with grief intense,
And watched her ride, With JOY immense
When Gladys got her wheel.
But little work was done that day
When Gladys got her wheel.
Folks couldn't keep their eyes away,
And some felt there was need to pray,
When Gladys got her wheel.

Penalties for Intoxication.

Some OF the Maine papers are dwelling
upon the signal Importance of new law
which went into effect May l. On and
after that date all persons who have pre-
viously been convicted of intoxication and
ale again presented in court on the same
charge are likely (and that ''iikely'' may
cover multitude of sins) to be sentenced
to Jail for term of ninety days. This is
the limit which has recently been pre-
scribed as penalty for second offence
of intoAication. The statute now on the
books, and which has been in vogue for
many years, has as the penalty 30 days in
Jail besides also allowing the court to i'm
pose fine. Portland Press.

An Easter Song.

A breeze comes ripping DER the sea,
Full-fraught with spring-time ecstacy;
Awake, O earth" it seems to say,
"Life conquers death on Easter day"
The flowers lift their heads to hear
This JOY full call to sun and cheer;
They burst their bonds, they bud and bloom
And smile in beauty DER their tomb.
The birds, that fled from winters chill,
Once more their happy measures trill;
The woodlands echo to their chime,
A carol sweet for Easter time.
All nature, rising out of sleep,
In joyous mood doth Easter keep,
Shall man, for whom the Christ hath died,
Alone be dumb at Easter-tide?
Nay; ring the bells, sweet anthems sing,
The tidlngs tell that Life is king
And may our nobler lives display
We, too, may rise on Easter day

''FritZ.''

Has anybody seen my Fritz"
You may not think him pretty,
But he's the dog that love best
In country or in city.
His hairs a sort of grizzly gray,
And not so very curly;
But he can run like everything,
And bark both late and early.
Sometimes he minds me very WE'LL
And sometimes when I CALL
He only sits and wags his tail
And does not stir at all.
But the reason why he acts that way
Is very plain to see;
Fritz doesn't know that he's my dog
He thinks that he owns me.
So, though he has heap of sense,
II would be just like him, now,
To think that Pm the one that's lost,
And with great bow-wow
To go off hunting for his boy
Through alley, lane, and street,
While am asking for my deg
