He May Declare the Contest Ended.
THE FEElNG IS MORE HOPEFUL
Most of Companies Have Posted Re
 quired Notices-Inde pendent Com =. panles Have a Little Kick of az rn~ Their Own

Hazleton, Pa., October A.-President Mitchell tonight announced that he would tomorrow issue statement defining the position of the United Mine Workers in the present situation of the strike. He also said that the statement would in all likell- hood indicate whether the strike would be imemdiately declared off or whether it would be continued
 This announcement was made as a re- suit of today's conference between the na- tional and district officials of the United Mine Workers. The impression around headquarters is that the statement will contain practically a declaration that the contest is ended. Coal companies controll- ing about 75 per cent of the anthracite coal product, 1t Is learned, have posted notices. but President Mitchell will not say that all of them comply with the terms of the Scranton convention.
 The big companies in this district that have not posted the notices are the Le- high Coal and Navigation Company, G. R.. Markle and Company, and Coxe Brothers and Company. The Markles have granted no increase of wages of any kind.
 Today's conference was in session three hours and adjourned until tomorrow morning.
 nounced that the situation was partly can- yassed and that the review would be com peted tomorrow
 The conference discussed plans as to what should be done in the event of one or more of the coal companies declining to grant the demand of the miners.

In the consideration of the Alaskan
bill in the United States senate, Mr..
H~ansbrough. made an earnest appeal in
behalf of the Garter amendment. He
held that an alien on the public domain
was a ~trespasser, and had no right to
better treatment than accorded a tres
passer. 'The American miners" he
declared" will not stand idly by and
see claims usurped by men who have
no right to them" Mr.. Hansbrough
asserted his belief that there was a
monstrous conspiracy in the opposi-
ton to the amendment, to grab the
richest gold fields on the face of the
earth, and that the conspirators were
the mlllionaires and corporations that
had acquired the claims in. the Cane
Nome district. $50 long as [ retain a
seat in this senate said he, II shall

FARMERs AND EXPANSION.

FARMERS AND EXPANSION.
Frank Hitchcock, chief of the Sec
ton of foreign markets, shows where
the farmers benefit from commercial
expansion. He says:
Our sales of agricultural products
abroad during the past three years,
1S97-1S99, were over S50O,O00,O00
greater than in the preceding three
years, 1S94-1S96. This enormous gain
affords some idea of the possibilities
that await a further development of
our agricultural export trade.
# Wider markets are becoming
not only an advantage, but a neces-
sity. The products of u farms, like
the products of our factories, are in
~creasing far beyond our own require
ments, and the surplus thus resulting
must be disposed of abroad, or we shall
have a constant glut in the home mar
ket. To avoid such a condition, we
are striving as never before to increase
our shipments to foreign countries. We
are searching the world oyer to find
new markets in order that the Ameri-
can farmer may have a reader and
more profitable sale for his products.
Cuf cOnCrOl OF Une markets. Ol CUBA
and Puerto Rico will mean money in
the pockets of our farmers. Under
normal conditions these two islands
purchase annually S50,O00,00 worth OF
agricultural produce, chiefly bread
stuffs and provisions, and practically
all OF this trade SHOULD come to the
United States.
In due time, the Philippines also
will furnish an important market fol
the produce of American farms. This
group of islands is particularly import
n tybecause of its relation to the valu-
able of the orient. All the
great commercial nations are expect,
antIy looking toward China, with hel
40O,000,O00 people, as the most promis.
ing field for trade development the
world now offers. The American farme7

wants a share of that trade. With a
commercial foothold in the Philips
pines, and a naval base there to insure
the protection of u commerce on the
Pacific, we shall be better able to reach
forth into the coveted markets of
China, Japan and the rest of eastern
Asia.
The foreign trade of China, Japan
and the East Indies, even under the
present ~undeyelOped conditions,
amounts to more than a billion dollars
q year, and of this vast commerce the
United States enjoys less than 10 per
cent. The possibilities of commercial.
expansion in this direction are simply
enormous. Our exporters are begin
ming more fully to recognize this fact
and to take advantage of it. The re-
suits already obtained are significant.
Five years ago exports to China
were valued at little more than $12,-
100000: last year lucy amounted to
nearly 4 O,OOO,0O0. Products of the
farm enter extensively into this rapidly
growing trade. The cotton planter of
the south and the great wheat grower
of the north and west are alike bene-
lifted. During the past rear nor than
10o,O00,00O pounds of American cotton
were shipped to Japan, as compared
with only 100000 pounds five years
ago. Our exports of wheat flour to
Asia, in the meantime, have increased
from less than a million barrels to over
a million and a half. Many other ag-
ricultural exports of the United States
are finding anew and profitable market
in the Orient, and all indications point
to the development there of an extern
sive trade in the products of agricul-
ture. - -,
The farmers benefit from CONNER
cial expansion, however, is not meas
ured merely by the larger scale of his
own prouucts abroad. He profits
nearly as much from the growing ex-
portation of manufactured wares. The
increased production of manufactures
in the United States to. meet the re-
qulrements of a broadening export
trade naturally creates a. larger home
demand for the products of the farm
Every additional pound of cotton cloth
sent to Asia means a better market al
home for our raw cotton; every addi-
tional pair of shoes sold abroad means
a better market here for hides of cattle:
and so on through the long list OF ag.
rlcultural products that form the ma.
terlals OF manufacture. Then, too, all
the various industries that are ex.
tended to meet a growing export de.
mand require additional workmen, ant
these Workmen must be fed from The
produce of the farm. Thus the Amer
lean farmer finds that the policy q
commercial expansion results to hi.
, great advantage in the home marke
as well as in the foreign market.

SOME PRAIRIE E
4 MATTRR OF POLICY

A MATTER OF POLICY.
While honesty is policy
And truth jewel too,
I'd hate to be the person
Who told everything that's true, h
Who instead of lying glibly:
What a lovely child is that"
Must in truth say to it's mother:
What an ugly little brat!!"
just suppose at some reception,
Entertainment should be slow,
And W. fret and fume and fidget
AS we often do you know.
Who would care to make his farewell
Truthfully to host and say:
I've been simply bored to death, sir,
And I'm glad to get aWay!"
Who would care to meet a lady
Whom he hadn't seen for years,
Greet her pleasantly and tell her r.
How much older she appears.
How much nicer to lie glibly,
Lie sincerely, and to say:
why it seems to me that you are ,
Growing younger every day." Z.
Be he saint or be he sinner,
Would q mortal man, fors6oth,
Ever dare go out to dinner ~.
If he had to tell the truth.
Say the roast vas tough and t~asteless,
Say the soup was seasoned wrong,
Say twas strange how weak the coffee
When the butter was SO strong!
| When the amateur canary A
In the paf1or, MARBLES gay,
Like a buzz saw on a tantrum
Who would care to rise and say:
Goodness me, but how you flatted,
My, how shrill your high notes are.
I have heard young calves that blatted
Better music-better far!"
If to truth you have a leaning,
It's not always wise to say ~.
What you think on some occasions,
There's another, wiser way:
'Twixt your policy and conscience
Just effect a compromise, -
And let what you think be truthful
If what you must tell be lies.
