to be in. Having shown her strength,
the United States has no reason to fear
that antagonisms will be forced upon
her. and therefore no reason to go hunt
ing for alliances, which would be pur-
chased by the creation of obligations of
some sort.

The French and English do

The French and English do not as
simulate in Canada, where British rule
has prevailed for one hundred and forty
years. The French are given an abun-
dance of political rights, but ave fail
to take advantage of opportunities tc
show their resentment toward English
control In the dominion. The French
however, do not anywhere lose thei1
individuality. They have tempera-
mental and racial characteristics which
time scarcely affects.

FROSTBURG, Nd, April 11.-Five
thousand miners of the Georges Creek
region struck tonight, and begun what
promises to be a protracted struggle
for an increase of wages and incident
ally the recognition by the operators
of the United Mine Workers of Amer
lea.
The operators assert that they will
not endeavor to work the mines, but
will let them remain idle until the
men get tired of inactivity and return
to work of their own volition. On the
other hand, the miners claim they are
prepared to continue the contest in
definitely.
The trouble began in August of last
year, when the miners addressed cir
cular to the operators asking for
conference to discuss the wage scale.
The operators promised to increase the
scale as soon as the prosperity which
was then being felt by other lines of
trade should affect the coal business.
Almost Immediately the miners began
organizing under the auspices of the
United Mine Workers. Several circu-
lars were afterward addressed to the
operators, and on February % they
posted notices in all the mines an
nouncing that the rate would be in
creased on April 1 from 45 to 55 cents
per ton. Since that time the miners
claim that the conditions have changed
and that the operators of the neighbor-
ing Clearfield (Pa.) region are paying
60 cents for the same work. They
again asked for a conference, on
March 81, but the operators ignoring
it, a mass meeting was held at Iona
coming on that day. The Consolidated
Coal Company discharged eighteen and
suspended about one hundred men for
absenting themselves from work to at
tend the meeting, and strike of their
1900 men resulted a few days ago. The
operators declining to meet confer
ence committee of miners and Frost
burg citizens yesterday, the leaders or
dered the general lockout for tonight.
The feeling of the men is bitter and
the issue does not now seem to be so
much the advance in wages as it is
the recognition of the organization
that the men will demand at the hands
of the operators. Mass meetings were
held at several points tonight and
much enthusiasm prevailed. The men
are quiet and orderly, and if the oper-
ators adhere to their resolve not to i'm
port labor to work their mines, the
struggle will resolve itself into a test
of endurance.
This is the first general strike of the
region since 1884, which lasted six
weeks.

BLUEFIELD, w. Va, April H.
On last Monday emancipation day was
celebrated at Pocahontas, Virginia,
and negro miners as well as many
whites visited Pocahontas from the
Elk Horn coal fields in this State, the
Norfolk & Western running low rate
excursion. On their return home,
early Tuesday morning, a fight ensued
in one of the passenger coaches
among lot of drunken men, and re-
volvers and knives were freely used.
1t is reported here that more than
twenty shots were fired, and that three
men were shot dangerously and two
women injured. but not seriously.
One of the men injured was Charles
Bostick, but it is impossible to secure
names of the others. All parties
concerned live in the Elk Horn re-
gion, and fights of this nature are
common occurrence in that section.
When the shooting began in the
coach there was great scramble
among the passengers and it is a mir
acle that more were not injured. A
travelling man from Richmond, whose
name could not be ascertained had a
