The great coal strike has been ordered
and the struggle for supremacy between
the wealthy anthracite barons and the
man who goes down into the bowels
OF the earth and works all day for
stipend, is on. And there is this signi-
ficant fact about IL: There ha= been
no time, since the contention arose, that
the laborers have not been ready and
willing to arbitrate the differences be-
ftre competent board of unbiased
citizens and have stated repeatedly
that they would abide by what that
board ruled. This request was always
refused by the operators. At the last
minute, In Indianapolis Wednesday af-
ternoon, when the order to inaugurate
dent Mitchell of the United Mine Work
ers of America, sent a telegram to the
coal operators in Pennsylvania to per-
init the points in dispute to be arbi-
trated, that business might not be dam
aged and that the miners might be
given hearing. The operators did not
even have the decency nor manhood to
Iswer the telegram. After waiting a
considerable time, President Mitchell
ordered the strike.
1t is not known how long it will last,
but the miners have a fund of money
and energy and will not be starved out
in week or month. How far reaching
it will be is also conjecture, but it Is
altogether likely that other interests
will be involved.
The Reading railroad concern is the
organizations that formed the nucleus
of the trust that controls the entire
output Of the anthracite coal mines Of
Pennsylvania. 1t has kept the prices
of anthracite coal to the top notch, Sc,
81 and frequently higher than IS per
ton, without giving the miner any Of
the benefits of increase and paying no
more proportlonately than is paid to the
miner in the bituminous district, where
coal sells for 50 to SO per ton.
1t is very evident that the operators
have decided to crush these men while
they have opportunity and have an ad-
ministration that they can appeal to
for troops and the attendant bull pens
and outrages to person and property
The miners have not been able to Gis-
cuss matters with the real head of the
anthracite business. They were given
evasive replies when they asked ques-
tions as to who were the real beneficiar-
les Of their toll.
The general unrest of the people may
bring any result from this strike. 1t
is SO likely to suggest others that the
danger is not remote. There is a lack
Of confidence in the administration Of
affairs Of the government and because
OF the formation of more trusts and
chasing to all points of the earth seek
ing conquest when grave problems are
requiring solution at home.

BE 6IND THE VEIL.

The details are leaking out of Calves
ton slowly, but enough is now known to
form an estimate of the appalling hor-
ror that overlook the island city and
laid waste its public and residence
properties and a great area Of ground
on the Texas coast. It is one of the
terrible affairs Of late years and serves
OF life we are in death and that the
elements may wipe from US our earthly
possessions at any moment. Here was
a great city almost destroyed COM
pletely in one night. Perverse winds
seemed to blow from several directions
at once and all laws laid down by SCI
erce as the laws Of nature, seemed to
be working in an opposite direction
from what would be expected by former
experiences.
The people of Galveston are entitled
, to the deepest sympathy Of the inhab-
itants of the remainder of the country
and this sympathy cannot take active
and substantial form too early to be ef-
fective. First, actual want and dis
/ tress must be relieved. After that II
, will be time enough to devise means
F., to aid these unfortunate brethren to
I retrieve their business fortunes and re-
build their homes. 1t Is noted with
pleasure that the president Of the
United States has taken action to re.
lieve suffering and that the governors
of various states have offered whatever
aid is possible. Inability to reach tn,
damaged city has probably caused 9
great deal of suffering already. Wher
the veil is lifted and the horror lait
bare, more intelligent basis of assist
ance can be reached than now. TIL,
!, crying need at this time is to reliev,
distress and suffering at once. The gen
erosity of the American people vii
suggest further remedy in due time.

Where, in all the long and labored
letter of acceptance recently promul-
gated by Mr.. Mckinley, is there SEN
tence that sets forth decided policy
about anything? Besides the claim that
the money question is the paramount
issue-which 1t isnt-the document
does not make a specific declaration.
What the policy with reference to the
Philippines and the Cubans and Porto
Ricans is to be is not mentioned
Sur'ly one who is asking for the suf-
frages of the American people ought to
take the people into his confidence.

Canton responded nobly to the call
for aid from devastated Galveston by
subscribing, at the very first meeting
held for the purpose, the sum of $3.50.
This was before any solicitors had been
sent out, but came merely as spon-
taneous offering from people who re-
sponded to a call for a meeting. This
shows that Canton's heart is in the
right place. Proportionately. no city
in the country starts off with better
list. And it should be larger. Let 1t
grow every day!

"The real issue is whether we shall
stand by Aguinaldo or Mckinley" said
Chairman Charles Dick at a love-feast

so does Hanna. Mr.. Mckinley also
knows it, for he spent over half an

MARRIAGE IN CUBA.

Justice has come tardily to the Cath
olics of Cuba. 1t is announced that the
new ecclesiastical marriage law, revok-
ing the infamous decree issued in May.
1899, by General Brooke, will go into
effect next Monday. The Brooke edict
prohibited ecclesiastical marriages,
recognizing only the civil ceremony.
After much consideration and taking
into account the best opinion of &C.
clesiastical and political functionaries
there, Governor General Wood directs
that the ecclesiastical ceremony be
recognized as on a basis of legality like
that upon which it rests in the United
States. From Monday next, therefofe.
parties wishing to marry may go
through ecclesiastical or civil cere-
mony, or both, at their option. This de-
cision restores to the church the privi-
lege it enjoyed prior to the American
occupation. There never was any valid
reason why the privileges should have
been revoked.

its members the universal Church is
guided and directed by it's head, the
Supreme Pontiff, who, in turn, appoints
Bishops to represent him in governing,
directing and protecting the faithful in
trusted to his charge. To appeal to the
faithful collectively or individually in
the name of religion. and say this or

ton of the Bishop, the divinely appoint
ed authority, is an imposition. which
has often led to abuses AS the duties
of the members of the Church include
the rights of their chief pastor to point
out their duties each member should,
as a matter of protection, only do
that which they know to be their duty
and when doubt arises, ask for direc-
tions from him who alone has the right
to give.
According to Canon Law only
Bishop has a right to ask contributions
from all dis dioceseners, clergy and
faithful. The same law. which gives
this right, states also that these Of

jubilee to visit the tOmbs of the apos-

for all the wants of the Irish people
at home and abroad. 1t is proposed to
include two classes: Pilgrims. ladies

THE FORCES AGAINST BRYAN.
Dublin Irish PeopIe.)

/ 'ADuDAllL II 1911 L COpLC-J
Mr.. William J. Bryan will again try
| conclusions with Mr.. William Mckinley
| for the greatest position amongst the
| temporal rulers of the worId-the presi-
/ dency of the United States. The Demo-
| Gratis have unanimously adopted the
| eloquent young western statesman as
their candidate. and the main plank of
| their platform is nti-fmDeriaIism-in-
GLIDING direct and eagerly avowed hos
tility to the British policy in South
Africa. That this declaration of faith
represents the feelings of the vast mass
of the American people is very certain;
but it remains to be seen at the polls
next November how far the detesta-
lions of the attack on the Boer repub-
lies and the general dissatisfaction with
the results of Mr.. McKinley's campaign
of conquest in the Philippines will in
fuence those voters who have hitherto
voted Republican.
Bryan will have a hard battle to
fight. Against him will be arrayed all
the power of the capitalists of the
states who are in one way or another
connected with England. Snobbery of
the most ridiculous type is as rampant
in America as in some Irish cities-and
the numerous multi-miIlionaires whose
daughters or nieces have married into
English society" will strain all their
resources to return again the president
who has shown himself so amenable to
English influences. and who has become
the disciple and slave of Chamberlain
ism. But if healthy public spirit can
win against the boodlers and million
aires and uncompromising supporters
of a party, William J. Bryan will enter
the White House next year. For ons
thing, the Irish and the Germans are
on his side to a man. and he may rely
upon the support of forces which were
either doubtful or hostile in 1896.
The inanity of the American snobs is
as irritating as the treachery of our
own. The Anglo American Brother
hood" celebrated the glorious Fourth Of
July-the anniversary of the Declara-
ton of American Internationally
holding a mutual admiration banquet
at the Hotel Heel in London. Mr..
Choate. the extraordinary ambassador
sent across by Mr.. Mckinley. told his
audience that the Fourth of July had
now become IAN International celebra-
toni" And he asked: What would
George III or Lord North have said to
the commander in chief of the British
army proposing the health of the Amer
lean PRESIDENT"
