At Republican meeting few nights
ago fellow on the outer edge of the crowd
shouted: What about Hazleton?" several
times, as if the Republican party was in
some way responsible for the troubles
there. There is no politics in the coal
troubles and none at Hazleton. A sheriff,
pressed by crowd of strikers, lost his
head and his deputies fired into the miners,
killing more than twenty No one is re-
sponsible but the sheriff and his deputies,
and they have been indicted. There was
no injunction at Hazleton and none within
miles of it. The sad event was due to the
fact that the sheriff lost his head. The
latest thing about Hazleton is that the
sheriff and his deputies have been put
under bond for trial.

BISHOP FowLER's LECTURE.
A Great Audience Hears Him Dis
course on Lincoln.

An audience that filled every part of Rob-
erts Park Church, that thronged the choir
seats. packed the aisles and sat on the
cushions surrounding the ratings in front
of the platform greeted Bishop Fowler last
evening. The audience was gathered by the
reputation which he has as an orator and
by the subject, Abraham Lincoln, of whom
he so eloquently spoke. Preliminary to the
arrival of Bishop Fowler, Bishop Bowman
took a. seat on the platform and was
heartily received by the audience. Bishop
Bowman made few remarks relative to
the address of the evening and referred to
his long residence in the State and to his
preaching at Meridian-street Church at one
time. When Bishop Fowler appeared with
Governor Mount there was applause. His
strong physique and manner were prepos-
sessing. Bishop Bowman stated that Gov.
Mount had been invited to preside at the
meeting and Governor Mount then intro
duced Bishop Fowler. on the occasion Of
his first visit TO this city. Governor Mount
said;

Next year wheat will be down again, Mr..
Bryan is reported to have predicted in one
of his recent speeches. That depends. 1t
is up now because of famine in India and
short crops in Europe and Argentine. SO
says Mr.. Bryan, and it is one of the few
facts that he has ever been able to grasp.
1t follows from this that if wheat shall
be very low next year it will be because
the crop will be in excess of the market
demand. Gold will have nothing to do with
it. but a crop in excess of demand. 1t is
not probable, however, that wheat will go
very low for several years, for the reason
that at the close of this crop year the gen.
eral markets will be lower, or the wheat
"in sight will be in smaller volume than
il has for years. Another factor favorable
to this country is that many thousands
more people are able. because of the bet
ter times to eat the best wheat bread than
have been since the close of 1892. This
means an increased home consumption over
1896 of fifty or seventy-five million bushels
which of itself is a quantity sufficiently
large as a surplus to affect the price
Doubtless the organs will be disappointed

The truth is that the prices of all the
leading metals have fallen heavily since
1876 Iron has fallen 46 per cent; lead, 46
per cent. zinc, AZ per cent; tin, 30 per
cent. copper, So per cent, and silver A
per cent This is due to the fact that rich
mines have been discovered, and particu-
larly to the fact of the invention of i'm
proved methods OF treating all ores. Be
cause of these inventions gold will become
so plentiful as to measure less of other
commodities. Silver has fallen no more
than other metals. None of them will ever
recover the old prices which put them out
of general use The owners of iron, cop
per and lead mines do not expect to re-
cover the old prices. Silver is the excep-
ton, silver mine owners demanding that
the price of their commodity shall be adj
vanced to $1.29 an ounce. And yet it is not,
like iron, or lead, or copper, an article of
so general use as will warrant an advance
in price. Cotton cloth was once worth so
cents a yard but it will never reach that
figure again or even one-fourth of it, So
long as silver can be profitably produced
at so cents an ounce, the price can never
be pushed up to 1929 an ounce Lifting
ones self by his boot straps is no great
er an impossibility than the attempt to leg
islate into silver double its market value.
