STRIKERS
ARE FIRM.

MlNEkS'.RANkS IN ANY

The Fennsyivania Coal s,rik. Unsettled Il
Coal Tra., Maxna,- Hold Another Con-
ference No Settlement Ne, in sight.
Up to the present time the coal
strike has been u succession OF VIC
tories for the miners. Mine after
mine has been closed, until few
mines are now Ia operation. and all
lines OF work In the great anthra-
cite coal region are crippled.
Not one man out OF the 1896
members OF the miners union has
deserted the ranks aud returned to
work. The ten per cent increase Of
wages and the powder reduction
proved TO be- bait that caught no
fish.
The New York conference OF the
hard coal magnates last Thursday
Was presided over by j. Pierpont
Morgan, head Of the coal trust and
friend Of Mark Hanna, and 1t is
said, better terms to the miners
were talked over and the question
Of recognizing the United Mine
Workers Union thoroughly dis
cussed. 1t Is believed that before
many days these questions will be
settled satisfactorily to the miners
At all events, united labor must be
recognieZd.
President Mitchell and miners
officials say there is no truth In the
statement that the miners on strike
Or their families are in distress.
They nave issued q card to the pub
'ic to that effect. This report, they
charge, is circulated by the mine
owners or their hired detectives for
che purpose Of weakening the posi-
EiOn Of the miners. 1t is on par,
they say, with the forged notice
puportlng to have been signed by
Mitchell for the miners to return
20 work, and with the persistent
rumor that President Mitchell has
agreed to accept a ten per cent in
crease in wages for the striking NIL
ners
Much Indignation is felt here
that forgery and other underhand
methods should be used by mine
owners or their mine bosses to mis-
lead the striking miners.
Gen. Goblin has ordered the troops
Cd return home. Good order has
prevailed in the coal regions, the
only acts of violence that have oc-
Cured being instigated by the hir.
I'd detectives of the niue opera
tors to injure the strikers cause.

Senator Benjamin r. Tiilman said
yesterday that the supreme court
would declare the distranchisement
acts OF South Carolina and Louisiana
unconstitutional. He said that the
unconstitutional provisions OF the
two acts lay In the clause that allow
ed to vote without having to SUBJ
NIT to any educational or property
test those whose direct ancestors vO-
ted in 1868. Under this provision,
according to the South Carolina sen
ator, ignorant whites will be allowed
to vote while ignorant blacks will
be disfranchised by the educational
test. He sid this was plainly q
discrimination on account OF color

Instead Of lOaning American gold
to Russia and foreign countries in
order to build up monetary alliances
for war purposes, how much better
it would be if the money was en-
plo, ed in building up our own coun-
try. Theresis plenty of room for in

undeveloped West. The great sur
plus of money in New York CITY is
ives ern money-money sent to New
York by western banks. The money
belongs t. the United States and it
ought to stay here. If these loans
become regular thing, it won't be
long before there will be shortage
of gold again in Wall Street. This
whole foreign loaning business is
nothing more or less than a scheme
to create a tight money market.
