NO better evidence is needed to prove
that Mckinley is the tool of Mark Hanna
than the very fact that he is now carry
ing out the bargains made during the
last campaign. Mr. Mckinley recently an
pointed Henry Demas, one of the most dis
gruntled negroes in Louisiana, rs naval
officer Mt New Orleans. The appointment
was made to fulfill IL bargain between
Demas on the one side and VIM McKin-
ley Osborne and Mr.. Hanna on the other,
knowing when he did it that Demas was
perjurer, BRIDE giver, bribo-take
man without character, boon com
pan'on of the frequenters and inmates of
the lowest dives in New Orleans The
proof of these allegations was laid before
him and are now IN his possession, and
he has admitted that he has read them
and twas worried by Them Demas and
a number of his pals were pledged and it
is alleged even sworn to support Reed in
the Republican convention and Osborne
and Hanna bought Demas for McKin.
ley with cash and promise of this office.
The World says: president Mckinley
has now made himself principal partner
Ia this bargain, shocking lin itself. but
vastly more shocking in view CT the de-
graded character of the man with whom
the President OF the United States has
locked arms. 1t is n disgraceful act and

THE SHOOTING OF THE MINERS

The firing into body of miners by a
band of deputy sherifs in the mountains of
Pennsylvania, near Latmer, Saturday
killing from fifteen to twenty miners and
wounding twice as many more, is a most
unfortunate occurrence to say the least.
The miners, according to report, were
moving from Hazleton, Pa, TO Latimel
for the purpose of forcing the men at
work in the mines at Latimer to stop,
when they were met on their way by the
sheriff and his band of deputies and or
dered to dispense, when the conflict with
its terrible result ensued.
While due allowance must be made for
the difficulty OF dealing with an infuri-
ated body of str.kers.in ordering his dep
uties to fire rs he did the accounts seem
to justify the statement that the sheriff
was entirely too hasty in issuing such or
ders.
The right of men to strike or abandon
their work at the wages they are offered
is unqnestOned and unuuestionabie.
They have the right also to use every

take up ON the same terms the work they
have discontinued and gain their de
mands if they can do so legally and

The question as to the best methods of
reducing to II minimum the troubles that
arise between capital engaged in produc-
ton and distribution of wealth and the
labor also engaged therein is an exceed
ingly difficult one mt best
a resort to arms by either side il, how.

Is 1t any wonder that the coal miners
are striking tor better wages and that
there is disposition on the part of many
of them to fight it out on the basis of
their own offer without accepting any
terms of compromise which might be die
tated by the operator? 1t has been shown
that the Ohio pick miners made an aver
age of 1925 during the year 1896,
or $3.50 per week. In indiana the
miners got an average of $3.50. AZ.
In Illinois, the rate was trifie
better, averaging 1913 year. Deduct
Ing for sharpening tools, blasting pow
der, etc., the net wages ranged from a3 90
to $500, which is considered slim wages
for shop girls. Now when the yearly en-
plOyment Of the miners ranges from'2 a.
to and 1-2 days in the week, with this
state of affairs staring the miners in the
faces, when they see nothing better than
want aud penury and in many instances
actual starvation is there any incentive
for them to accept anything offered them
in the way of settlement by the wealthy
operators:

tire United States gold production, as de-
veloped after nearly half IL century of
hard work aided by unlimited capital and
scientific resource. But the companies
under discussion do not constitute one
one-hundredth part of the producing
forces now at work or en- route to the
Arctic regions. In other words, the pre-
sumed yield of the Klondike, on the basis
of the calculations mentione d will exceed
many times over the annual production
of the whole world ms heretofore reported.
This is pure folly. The region may be
immensely rich in auriferous material,
but that it will produce more gold within
year than one of the older gold produc-
ing States of the Union is doubtful. At
least nothing to prove it has yet been
forthcoming. The moral is, that il people
are determined to buy gold mining stock
they will possess vastly better prospects
of returns in the shape of dividends by
picking up shares in producing compa-
MES throughout the Wesu.'

gold as Klondike, and that million dol
