ADVICE TO SLAVES.

Julian Hawthorn is telling in the
Hearst papers, how miners live on
so cents day and other writer's
are telling the working people how
they may live on less. l think it
would be much better If their
addresses were directed to telling
the skinners of labor how they
could and should live on less than
the millions they spend annually
in ignorant ostentation and ex-
travagance. Men can live on
very small amount, can do without
nearly all the good things of life,
but if all did this the factories
would close for want of patrons,
the progress of the world would be
stopped. OF what use is progress
| if it does not benefit the race? l
know what it is to live on a few
pennies a day. l have diary
that l kept when boy and it
shows that my mother and | lived
a month on 81. 76-not only food
but all other things. 1t is not
good, and those who advocate
such a condition, who tell the
people they should try to so live
that masters could have so much
more to waste and buy titled snobs
for their daughters, are not friends
of the race. Let them try it for
years out of necessity. 1t is all
very we'll as fad for few
months, especially when they do
not have to so live, but let them
put themselves in the places of
these miners and sweat-shop vic
tins of poverty and try it under
those conditions. 1t makes me
tired to read these adviceS to the
working classes by those who live
in fine houses, who do no manual
labor that requires much food-fuel
to keep the body alive. They are
enemies of the race, ignorant of it
though they may be. We should
all see how we'll we can live-not
how mean. That is what ma
chinery is for. If machinery will
not benefit all, then machinery is
a failure and no good. The less
the working classes will learn to
live on the more of their products
will go to the useless rich leeches
of society. Life is not existent
for the purpose of seeing how
much we can make off our fellows.
Poor indeed would be the plan of
creation if such were the case. 1t
is a blasphemy on God or nature
to say that men are here to see
who can grab the most of what
men create. If such were true it
were better that the race cease to
exist. Away with your five and
ten cents a day living for the
workers who make all the wealth,
while the drones live in a style
that costs millions year and pro-
duce not the value of one meal.
That men are told they have a full
dinner pail and for that reason
they should vote to uphold the in
dustrial robbery that puts millions
of full dinner pals in the possess
ion of single family! Let the
rich take the advice they hire
writer's to give to the poor and see
what it is like.-Appeaito Reason.

PEACE AND HARMONY.

Probably no two conventions
ever convened in any State where
greater harmony prevailed than
was manifested by the Democratic
and Silver Party State conventions
which met at Virginia City on the
9th of the present month. Both
were assembled for a common pur-
pose T; both advocated the same
principles, and were unit in
their support of Bryan and Steven
son and the platform on which
they were nominated. Each con-
vention Wed with the other in its
effort for the promotion of harmony
and good feeling, and each mani
tested its willingness to make any
honorable concession which would
insure the consolidation of bimet-
allie and anti-imperialistic vote
against the common enemy.
The two platforms, although
formulated by different committees
and without any concert of action,
advocate the same principles, and
one might be substituted for the
other without the slightest de-
parture from any important decla-
ration embodied in the resolutions
of either. The result was most
satisfactory to the members of both
the Silver and Democratic Parties,
and the nomination of a Joint
ticket immeasurably stronger than
any that was ever before present
ed to the people of the State.
The same harmony and unity of
action and purpose now prevail
between the State central COM
mittees of both parties. Head
quarters for both committees have
been established in the Eureka
block in Reno, which are occupied
jointly by both parties indis-
criminately, and the business of
the campaign will be conducted
Jointly and as harmoniously as
though they were all members and
of the same politi-
cal organization, as they are in
fact, so far as relates to the right
eous work in which they are joint
ly engaged.
All of the talk of one organi
zation trying to take precedence
of the other, is the emanation of
ignorance or Justification by the
few who are willing to get into
the Republican Party and whose
are designed to arouse
a spirit of jealousy and unrest
among the more radical partisians
of the Democratic and Silver
Parties. The action of the two
conventions, and the harmony
existing between the two State
committees, however, give the lie
to such assertions, and all of those
who are endeavoring to enact the
role of disturbers, will long before
the election be forced to lay aside
their masks, and manifest their
treasonous purpose by openly ally
ing themselves with the party of
gold imperialism and trusts.-Reno

no farming in the neighborhood of col
lieries. The land is rocky and barren. 1t
has been stripped of timber. and stunted
pines, oaks and underbrush straggle over
hill and dale. Vast breakers are scat
tered about, each one supporting a set
tlement of miners with shabby cottages.
Enormous culm banks show how great
the underground work has been. There
are miles of subterranean passages in
mine sthat have been in operation for
half century and in which the supply
is expected to last for three centuries to
come.
When President MitchelPs order for a
strike went into effect four weeks ago,
every mine in the Lackawanna and
Wyoming valleys came to a sudden stop
and work was suspended in many parts
of the Schuyllxin and Lehigh districts.

Panther Creek section in full operation.
Since then the missionary efforts of
organizers of the United Mine Workers
have resulted in the closing of the ma
jOrity of the remaining cOllieries, the
neighborhood of Tamaqua alone escap-
ing Strikers who had some little money
on hand for an emergency have cut
their living expenses down to a mini
mum. buying nothing but food, and lit
tie of that In many instances they are
able TO obtain some credit from local
dealers, but the bills cannot run very
high.
Merchants who had large orders out
standing when the strike began, prompt
ly cancelled them, refusing to make pur-
chases until the trouble ended CONNER
cia1 travellers, usually the best patrons
of the hotels, changed their routes. as
they could sell nothing in the coal re-
gions. The theaters have been unable to
attract audiences and many of the best
attractions that had been booked can
celled their dates, to the further detri-
ment of the hotel keepers.
AS there was little coal to be hauled
the coal railroads had to, lay off the
crews Of most of their coal trains. There
are actually in the enormous yards at
Mauch Chunk. several hundred coal cars
which under normal conditions should
be scattered on railroads from the At
lantic to the Pacific In many towns it
is now impossible to obtain coal for do
nestle use at any price. A prominent
resident of Mount Carmel who did not
take the precaution to lay in a supply
says he could not buy a ton The in
convenience of having to depend upon
kood fires win be appreciated by every
householder.
The stagnation of trade here. is of
course felt by the manufacturers and
wholesalers of the eastern cities who
furnish the supplies, and as the mer-
chants can obtain no cash from their
customers, they must appeal to their
creditors for leniency Appeals are be-

organization for funds for the relief of
destitute strikers, who can get no credit.
