At Wilkesbarre

Wilkesbarre, Pa, September 17.-Every mine in the Wyoming Valley with the ex- ception of one, was closed today by the miners strike. The total number of men idle in this valley Is little over 22,0O0.
 When the whistles blew this morning for the commencement of work there were very few in sight The pump men and fan runners were on hand to go to their posts, but miners and laborers were con- spicuous for their absence.
 A Hungarian who attempted to go to work in the Woodward mine of the Lackawanna Company was set upon by some of his coun tryncen and badly beaten The attention of the officials of the com pany has been called to the matter and they say that tomorrow they will have a number of special officers sworn in to pro- tect those who want to go to work. Sidney Bryant, an engineer at Bryant's coliery. Luzerne borough, claims while on his way to work he was attacked by foreigners who pointed a pistol at his head and threatened to shoot him If he did not ee- turn home.
 The United Mine Workers held meetings In this city, Plymouth, Ptson, Ashley Hanover, Port Bowkley, Parsons and other places today.
 It was given out at strike headouarters tonight that over 1000 new men had been added to the membership of the United Mine Workers today. In this city over 400 joined.
 The miners here, while they are well pleased with the showing the men of the Mahoning Vally have made, do not like the reports that come from the Lehigh and Schuylkill regions The operators take a rather hopeful view of the situation. They say they do not hope to resume work to- morrow, but point to the fact that house divided against itself is bound to fall. One operator said:
 The miners and business men of the Mahoning region are not going to sit idly by while the business men and miners of the lower anthracite districts prosper at their expense. As soon as 1t becomes known that our people are being discriminated against there will be break and the men here will return to work with a rush."

CHAIRMAN ROGERS
Reviews the Result OF the Election
Not Unexpected.

Mr.. s. G. Rogers. chairman of the
Summit County Democratic Executive
Committee. said last night, after con'
ceding the county to the Republicans:
THE result in Summit county and the
nation, while a surprise to the commit
tee. will he accepted with commons
placence. The committee was pre-
pared for surprises and so indicated
to the voters before election. Tho
landslide did not happen to be on our
side. The result shows that the people
are satisfied with the existing CONNER
cial conditions and did not desire
change. BY re-electing Mckinley they
have reversed all prccedents that have
obtained since the time of Grant, when
the people have refused to give Pres
ident second term. The silent vote,
which counted for so much this year,
was with the Republican party, and
the responsibility is now upon that
party to make good its promises. The
administration will have the right to
regard the result as a tlattering en-
dorsement Of its policies, domestic.
aud foreign, and the people must be
satisfied with the result Mr.. Bryan
and his friends made a gallant fight,
but the odds, as the election shows,
were against them"

ator, has apparently gone down in de-

Editor Of DAILY Journdl:-I heartily en-
dorse the plan OF having our State election
on the same day of the presidential cleo
ton. 1t will be great saving of time, and
time Is money.
In making a check list what is the need
of the whole hoard of civil authority acting,
when three men can do it just as well
meeting only twice? And why not just as
well limit the time to Saturday afternoon at
five or six O'Clock as midnighl? find that
in a town of average population the cost Of
revising the Ct eek list and election in 1898
was $50 AT that rate what will it be in
this presidential yeaI?
Will legislators who are in favor of re-
ducing taxes consider this matter?
