NOTES OF INTEREST
ABOUT THE STRIKE

Notices were posted yesterday at
strike headquarters. warning the men
that the strike in the Indian territory
ard Arkansas. inaugurated eighteen
months ago, is still on. and that the
operators there are falsely stating
that a settlement has been reached.
In an effort to induce men from this
region to go there and take the strik-
ers' places.
The Greasy Creek Camel Coal and
Tramway company, of Eliza. Johnson
county. Kentucky. has written to Or
ganizer Fred DilCheT, asking him TO
secure one hundred men to work in
the Company's mines at that place.
The company pays $1.25 for 22io-
pound ton, and sells powder for $3.50
per keg. The seam runs on an aver
age thickness of twenty inches and is
overlaid with a. two-foot topping OF
soft coal. for which the miner receives
an additional twenty-five cents ton.
Mr. Dilcher will secure positions for
any men who want to take advantage
of this offer.
The Johnstown Democrat says: THE
soft coal operators of this section of
the state are in their glory and have
won a great victory. For year past
they have sent numerous agents East
to secure men to operate their mines,
but without success, but now that the
hard coal miners are on strike they
are securing all the help needed
Eighty men from WilkesBarre ar
rived at, the Pennsylvania depot this
morning and We're hired at once by
officials of J. G.. Steinman & Co., OF
South Fork, and the Mitchell Coal &
| Coke Co. The former firm is prepar.
ing cooperate day and night. An Off
| cial said: I'VE have at last secured
way to get all the help needed and
| this section will soon become the most
prosperous in the state. 4 strike il
the Anthracite region was the only
| way we could secure the desired helD

up TO the present one. only the Lehigh
district miners quit work.
The fact that all previous strikes
failed Ia of no significance in prophesy-
ing the result of the present one. In
not one Of the former struggles was the
entire anthracite region involved aS It
Is today. nor were the miners as solldly
arrayed against the operators as they
now are. But. above all else what
makes the present strike different from
preceding ones Is the fact that on the
side of the miners pleading their cause
stands the United Mine Workers Of
America, an organization numbering
over 100000 men and having members
in nearly every state in the Union.
This organization was brought into
existence in 1890, supplanting the Anal
gamated association. 1t Includes
miners in both the anthracite and biui-
minous regions. Wherever there is a
mining camp, village, town or city in
these regions there can be found one
or more representatives of the union.
In nearly all such places a local union
exists The members of this elect dele
gates to a district convention, ovec
which is a president in charge of all the
locals within described bounds. The
district officers conduct the affairs Of
their particular section under the stl-
pervision of the national executive
board which latter is chosen annually
in a convention made up of delegates
| selected by the locals. This board IS
composed of eleven members, chosen
from various parts of the United
States. The president of the union,
| chosen annually in the same national
convention. il eX-officio head of the
board. 1t was this board that, upon
| application of the Hazleton convention,
and after a meeting at indianapolis,
ordered the strike in the anthracite coal
field, through President MITCHELL
| Philadelphia Ledger.

Since 1S49 there have been six strikes
In the anthracite region of this state,
and every one of them failed to secure
what the miners demanded. In 1S49
rhey struck for an increase of wages;
in 1868, for the enforcement of the state
eight hour law; in lS70-7l, the Lehigh
and Schuylkill districts only struck
against a reduction in wages; in 1878,
the miners in these two districts again
became idle, during which time there
was much rioting and bloodshed, 1t be-
ing the period Of the Molly Maguires' (;
in 1SS7-S, a strike was inaugurated
against the Lehigh and later the Read
ing company, and in 1897, the last strike

REMEDIES SUGGESTED.

The remedies suggested for this evil
We're an arousing of public interest
among business men and the getting
of the better element out to the pri-
mares to see that only men who can't
be bribed are nominated. Mr.. Dun
ming said that a few sentences uttered
at the meeting on this subject by Rev.
DR.. Washington GLADDEN. appealed
especially to him.
DR.. GLADDEN.. who is considered the
most prominent Presbyterian clergy
man in the country, recently came out
as candidate for council in Columbus,
o., and was elected. Speaking of bri-
berry he said:
TT seems to be assumed that bribery
to prevent the spoilation of properties
is justifiable. Just here the public con-
science needs toning up. There is real
ly very little distinction between the
coward who is bullied into bribery by
the public spokesman and the corrup-
ZIONIST who himself takes the initia-
tive The one let's the bandits make
tool of him and the other uses the
bandits as his tools. Which is the
more honorable? On the whole | have

cipal League, as a delegate from the
board of trade.
lie comes back full of new ideas on
municipal government and confident
of securing next years meeting for
Scranton. The last three meetings of
the League have been held i'm west
ern cities--in 1898 at indianapolis and
i'm 1899 in Mlnneapolis-so that the
chances are very bright inasmuch as
Clinton Rogers Woodruff, thu secre-
tary and a member of the executive
committee, which decides upon the
place of meeting. has promised 10
throw his influence TO Scranton.
The most representative men in pub
lie life in all parts of the country are
members of the League, as we'll as the
leading civic societies Of any import
ance in every city of any size.
CHANGE IN REPRESENTATION.
Mr.. Dunning. in convesing with a
Tribune man last night. said that
there was an exceedingly strong SEM
timent at the meeting in favor of "A
proportional representa- ton in Coun-
ellis, instead of a ward representation,
or. failing in This, the election of one
third Of the councilmen at large, in ad-
dition to the ward councilmen.
The adoption of this latter plan, he
says, would allow the business man a
chance to be represented in councils,
and, by the better element in the muni-
cipality electing only representative
men at large and by the representa-
tive wards sending in only their best
| men, the power of the Councilmen from
wards which never send good men
could be overcome.
Mr.. Dunning says that the Crawford
| county system was most faVorably
| commented upon at the meeting and
the importance of honest primaries was
! also taken up. In the course of an
| extended discussion on Improper In
| fluence on Legislation by Public Ser
| vice Companies" the question of bri.
berry was taken up and the fact brought
out that the companies thmeslves
| were just as anxious to have it abol'
ished as any one.

Beware of Misjudging.

Perhaps it were better for most
OF us to complain less of being mis-
understood and to take care that
we do not misunderstood other peo-
pie. 1t ought to make us pause at
times to remember that each one
has a stock of cut-and-dried iudg-
ments on his neighbors, and that
the chances are that most OF them
are quite erroneous. What our
neighbor really is we never know,
but we may be pretty certain that
he is not what we imagined and
that many of the harsh things we
have thought of him are quite be-
side the mark. What he does we
have seen, but we have no idea
what may have been his thoughts
and intentions. The mere surface
of his character may be exposed,
but of the complexity within we
have not the faintest idea. People
crammed with self-consciousness
and self-conceit are often praised
as humble, while shy and reserved
people are judged to be proud.
Some whose life is one subtle, stud
led selfohness get the name of self
sacrifice, and other silent, heroic
souls are condemned for want of
humanity.-Ian Maclaren.

His Destination Known Only to His
Family and to the POlice--Talk
About Confession.

The recent fires and the alleged con-
fession OF Denniston NJ. Bell remain the
all-absorbing topic OF conversation at
Newport. Before the arrest the cottagers
were alarmed and their employees were
nightly armed with guns.
Perry Belmont and other cottagers went
to the expense OF engaging private watch
men for the entire winter.
Young Bell, by the direction Of his
counsel. Col. w. p. Sheffield, Jr., I'm
whose fathers office he studied law. and
with the approval of his sref-stricken
parents. has left town, probably never
TO return. His destination IS known only
TO tho police department and 10 his pa
rents. His parents have denied them
selves to all callers
A reporter had long talk with the
rhief OF police, BENJAMIN ~. Richards,
end with the captain of police, II. Il.
Carnett. who are charged with putting
Bell through the third degree" in or
der TO exact a confession. In the privacy
of the police station.
Mr.. Richards stated that the report
was absolutely false.
Bell. he says. voluntarily made certain
damaging statements, and In order to
protect his tBelrs) interests he checked
HIM and sent for Mr.. Sheffield, who he
knew would gladly appear as counsel in
view of his (Sheffeld's) former social and
professional relations with Bell. Admis-
Gons OF guilt were made freely, he said,
and without pressure
Capt Carnett previously had talk
