The miners in the anthracite co.

The miners in the anthracite coal
regions are being condemned by
some republican papers for protest
ing against the iron-will Of the mine
owners. Besides other good reasons,
the following editorial from the
New York Journal shows that the
strikers have good grounds for tax
ing the course they did:
"The simple and undeniable truth
is that mine workers of the anthru-
cite coal regions have entered upon
this struggle because the trusts have
raised the price of the necessaries of
life, while the coal trust have held
their wages down. A thorough and
impartial investigation of the situa-
ton shows that meat, -four, sugar,
oil, coal, shoes, clothing and every
thing that enters into q working
mans expense account has risen in
price from 20 to so per cent. These
are the things produced and controll-
cd by trusts. The mine workers
have been receiving the same wsges
they got before the trust system
raised the price of living.
GLOW can a workingmsn live in
such circumstances? Be fair; con-
slider the cruel lot of mine worker,
crushed between the irresistible
working force of two trust princl-
ples-one keeping his wages down
the other putting his household ex-
penses mp. How can he live? Wha.
is he to do?"

The imperialists say the opposition

of the inferior. and worthless class OF

REPUTATION of the truth OF that state

thirty dollars have been offered for

have been turned in, and that, too,

phobia. The children were taken to

the mad stone. On some of the wounds
ii stayed nearly six hours, and on being

wounds much poison was seen on the
surface Of the water. The children are
doing well and do not seem to be suffer
Ing any after the treatment. Mr.. Geiman
tells US that number of persons from
different sections have called on him of
late to have this mad stone applied to
wounds. A lady from Culpeper was bit
ten on the finger by pet dog last Mon
day and came TO Bloomfield to be treated
by Mr.. Geiman on Wednesday. Ii took
twenty-eight hours to extract all traces
OF yoison from the wound. The virtue
of this stone is highly spoken of, though

Governor Tyler and the Convention

NION0A AOI ~ LA0 OOnN0nLlOn
Governor Tyler is being sharply
criticised by some Of the newspapers
of this State because their editors be-
heye he has made up his mind not
TO call an extra session of the Legis-
lature for the purpose of expediting
the assembling of the constisu tionsl
convention. Our brethren are labor
ing under the misapprehension. The
impression they received on this sub
jeot was created perhaps by al in
terview credited to Major S. Heth
Tyler, but which he had said in n
published card did not properly pre-
sent his views.
We learn from that card, also, that
the Major has meyer heard the Gov
ernor say In private more than he
has given to the pubho-viz., that he
would not decide the question of call
ing an extra session until after the
November election"
That statement ia contirmatory of
all we ever heard as TO the Governors
position.
The Dispatch is content to have
this question adjourned until the
election is over. But, when the Gov
ernor comes to decide it, we trust he
will allow great weight to the views
of the leaders in the ro-convention
movement. After the contest which
resulted in their victory in the Nor
folk convention, after the popular
majority given in the special election
in May of this year, the friends of
the constitutional convention may
reasonably expect to have much in
fluence in deciding when Legislative
action should be invoked.-Rich-
mond Dispatch.
