itself is a disgrace to every self-respect-

How long will oIir great cities con-

question that thousands do sanction
them, and were she not executing the

but it is fundamental in law that If the
officers chosen to execute it fail to do so,
1t is then time for 1.-THE people to take the
law into their own hands. The saloon is
outlawed in Kansas and has no property

come Of the proposed wage conference in
the anthracite fields. After discussing
the matter with a number of representa-
tive miners in the Pittsburg district the
consensus of opinion would seem to be
that since the btuminou5 fields have set
tied their wage scale at last years rates,
| barring local competition, the anthracite
wage question might be settled on the
same basis. For the betterment of the
condition of the anthracite miner the
organization of the miners has already
taken steps to secure legislation in Penn
sylvania. They are asking state laws for
the payment by the ton instead of by
the car, the establishment of check
WeiShmen and other desirable provisions.
For these laws all Of the miners of Penn
sylvania and other districts will coop
crate. The Indianapolis convention Of
the miners went on record as opposed to
a demand for a 10 per cent advance for
the anthracite districts, and every move
of that convention in relation to the an
thracite fields was for conservative &C
ton. The convention directed the Off
GERS of the anthracite districts to block
custom of operators to lay up large
stocks of coal by ordering curtailment
of work to meet the conditions of the
market. This is now being done, and in
it the miners are making their only ag-
gressive move that may figure in the pro-
for the proposed joint conference with
| anthracite operators will be outlined at
a convention of the anthracite miners
and the national officials, called to take
place at Iazelton March T.
w. D. Ryan, secretary treasurer of the
illinois miners. said recently in relation
to the anthracite situation:
with a satisfactory scale settled for
the bituminous fields a hitch In the an
thracite fields would hardly Justify the
calling on strike of the entire organiza-
tion.- Such an action would be a viola
ton of the Interstate joint agreement
for the bituminous fields and the various
district agreements to which miners will
not consent"
This and next month are the periods
of district wage settlements for the min
ers.
In the Pittsburg district a prompt re-
affirmation of the present scale will prob
ably be tied up for a time by demand
of the miners for the check-off system.
This Issue will be stubbornly fought by
the workers committee, and as obstinate

RETIREMENT OF H1cHBoRN.
Passage From Public Life of an Able
Man.


Man.
WASHINGTON, Feb 24.-The retire
ment of Rear Admiral Philip Hichb0rn
for eight years past chief constructor of
the American navy, marks the passage
from public life of one of the ablest men
in our history. From a shipwright ap-
prentice at the Boston navy yards he
rose steadily through the various grades
of the construction branch of the service
until, in July 1893, he was appointed chief
of the bureau of construction and re-
pair, the highest position in the construc-
ton corps.
In 1880, when congress determined to
reorganize the navy Admiral Hichborn,
then a naval constructor, was chosen to
serve as a member Of the first naval ad-
yisory board and four years later was
selected by Secretary Chandler to go
abroad in the capacity of a naval eX-
pert to investigate naval progress in Eu-
rope. He has been always a stanch ad-
vocate of sheathed ships and, in the
face OF strong opposition succeeded IN
having his type OF vessels adopted into
the navy.
Admiral Hichborn's designs of ships
and inventions of naval Announcements
are in evidence throughout the service,
prominent among them being the bar
bette turrets, commonly known as 'tHiclI-
born turrets," the FranGnn life buoy,
which is in use in this and nearly every
European navy; submarine boats, water
tube boilers, fireproof wood and com
plete set of ship boats, which have been
adopted as the standard. The admiral
also has been foremost in the design and
construction of the battleships and cruis-
crs of the new navy now being con
tracted for by shipbuilders throughout
the country. Admiral Hichborn retires
by age limit March 4, but already has
reifnquished the active duties of his po-
sition.
