There was no material change in the
industrial situation, locally. during the
past week The only labor trouble was
the strike of the laborers at the Wheel
ing pottery plant, and yesterday there
was rather more than general prospect
that this affair would be adjusted
through action by the Board of Direc-
tors. At Benwood everything is working
smoothly, and on the Ohio side the
various plants ran right along, with ev-
cry prospect of continuing to do SO.
Morkingmen are commencing to look
forward to the summer stops, but that
season of respite from labor is still some
little removed, and IL will be another
mont before the season of rest comes
around
There is some complaint in local retail
circles that the volume of business has
fallen off of late, and that the coming
summer may be rather dull, but this
fear does not appear to have tangible
basis, and the idea rather savors of bor-
rowing trouble and Of anticipating mis-
fortune. 1t is reasonable to expect that
the summer season will be rather better
than usual for business, instead CT
worse, for although some plants will I'M
doubleday be idle, there will be I'M
usual activity in other circles, notably
dn the building trades Workmen in
that line are already very busy, and wi
have all they can 90 until late in the
autumn.

The Pig Iron Market,

Matthew Addy & Co., o. Cincinnati, in
their weekly report say:
There is good deal of quiet buying
at the present time, that is, the spec
tacular features that accompanied the
purchasing some time since are lacking,
and, of course, there is not the same
tremendous volume of new business. But
there is steady inquiry. Several large
transactions in pipe irons have been
closed; two or three considerable deals
Tor Southern basic and malleable for
she last half are now in process of ne
gotiaticm, while of minor transactions
there have been plenty. So it can be
seen that the makers and sellers of iron
are not having mucn time to enjoy the
mild beauty Of the early May days
In Iron mills there has been consul
cradle movement. Shipping orders on
sold contracts are oeing given in large
blocNs, and it seems Almost Impossible
to get the iron forward fast enough.
The signs all point to the fact that
consumption is still Increasing. Tins
answers the often-asked question as to
what effect the present large produc-
ton will nave on the situation

MARTINS FERRY.

The industrial situation in Martin s
Ferry is very encouraging, and the pros
poets for the future are very bright. The
Laughlin tin mill is busily engaged with
all departments on in full, and the work
on the new addition is nearing compile
tion. During the past week the work
done has made a great showing, and Tie
new part now almost looks as though it
was ready for operation, but the engi-
neers say that there is still a large
amount of work to be done.
The Aetna Standard is in flourish
ing condition, and is busy in all depart
ments. The work on the construction
of the new mills is progressing well, and
they will soon be ready for operation.
The new additions to this plant will be
commenced in the near future.
The construction of the new Laughlin
sheet mill made mucn progress last
week, as quite a showing was made on
the brick and stone work, and it now
commences to look like mill.
The Wes~ Virginia glass factory is
busy working every day, with plenty of
orders ahead.

The Mining Trouble.

In regard to the miners strike in the
Handle district, Vice President d.
II. Sullivan and District President Alex
Smith, at meeting OF the miners yes
ter6ay, stated that at any time they
would be willing to meet the operators,
nd if the mine owners would indicate
what they thought was unreasonable in
the scale, and would convince the men
that it was all right, ithey would only be
too glad to meet the situation and make
changes. The Ohio operators have al
ways found these officials fair, and
have never refused to meet ,Aem at a
joint conference with satisfactory re-
suits to both sides. The mine officials
feel that the West Virginia operators
should give them an opportunity to hold
a conference and allow the grievances
to be stated and discussed. Tie strike
headquarters will still be at Bridgeport,
and NJ. Ihnat the interpreter, will work
in the Wheeling district this week. The
miners are standing firm for their de-
mands, and the operators have showed
no inclination to join in conference
or to make a settlement. About four
hundred men are involved, as has been
stated in the Register heretofore. The
main difference is on the removal of
slate, popularity known as dead work,
and is not question of wages at all.

steubcnvi1le Pottery History.

Speaking of the change in ownership
of the oteubenville, Ohio, Pottery Com
pany, the Gazette says:
The .5teubenville Pottery Company
was organized November II, 1879, by
twenty citizens of this city. The orig
inal capitalization was $25, 1000, but this
has since been greatly increased. The
original plant was a 3-kiln pottery with
two small decorating kilns, but it be-
came necessary to enlarge the plant
several times, and only last year i'm
mense additions were made, and to-day
the pottery, by splendid management, is
one of the most stable plants of the
kind in the United States. Over rs per
cent of the product is decorated, and
the Steubenville decorated ware has
gained for itself reputation second to
none AS president, Mr. Wintringer,
though a young man, will undoubtedly
make a splendid officer For years he
was bookkeeper, which with his fur
ther experience as secretary. makes him
peculiarly fit for the place, and the pot
terry under his management will I'M
doubterly continue its prosperous oaresr
Mr. Cooper, who is also young man,
has had considerable business training,
and he will doubtless make a splendid
successor to Mr.. Wintringer so with
the new management the Steubenville
pottery may be expected to grow as it
has done in the past.

Window Glass stop.

Commoner and Glass Worker
Every window glass factory con-
trolled by the American Window Glass
Company and the Independent Glass
Company will close the 1900-01 fire to-
day. and on May 20 it is expected that
the large majority of the outside plants
will finish the fire. The combines and
L. A. 300 officials were unsuccessful at
Indianapolis last week in getting the
co-operatives to agree to go out to-day.
but compromise on May 90 is reported
to have been made. Good inducements
are given the co-operatives for stopping
then, as mentioned in our last issue. and
it is thought signatures of nearly all
cooperative firms will be secured. I'm
til this stop question is out of the way
no wage settlement can be expected. but
it is animated mat final settlement of
all questions can be expected to-day or
early next week. The L. A. 800 and
American wage committees met again
Thursday.

pany is mystery at present, but there
are many vague hints of sudden stop

The co-operatives have formed the

STRIKES THE SOURCE.
A Pile Cure That Goes to the Roof
of the Disease.

\ Pile Cure That Goes to the Roc
of the Disease.
There are lots of lotions, oils and
salves that will, through their
soothing influence, relieve tempor-
arily the pain incident to piles.
But is that all the sufferer re-
quires? Isn't i. a horrible thought
to realize that the ease is emily
temporary and the disease goes on
under the surface without a mo-
ment's interruption? Wouldn't it
be wiser to select a remedy that
seeks the source and regulates
those deep-seated disorders which
induces the disease? Pyramid Pile
Cure not only relieves the pain at
once, but effects permanent cure
of the worst form of piles.
: You don't have to go through a
tedious course of dieting while US
ing it either. 1t strikes through
those delicate membranes and It's
sues ard sets the blood in health
full circulation, reducing at once
the painful Inflammation and con-
gested tumors.
This remedy is not haphazard
combination of drugs but is a RENE
dy invented by specialists who have
treated piles and blood disorders
successfully for years. Manufact-
ured by the Pyramid Drug Co., at
Marshall, Mich. Almost any first
class druggist has it on sale.
Don't treat this disease with ev-
cry lotion and salve that comes
along. Remember the parts affect
ed are among the most delicate in
the human body. This remedy is
absolutely safe and no one need
fear to apply it freely on the most
infamed parts. The speed with
which it allays the pain is an
agreeable surprise to the sufferer.

the world stin wages war against new

the world sim wages war against new
truths.
The enfranchisement Of men is an Is
tablished fact in the United States and the
British Empire, yet It stands as the eli
max OF evolution in government and rep
resents . thousand years of bitter argu-
ment and sanguinary wars. 1t was but a
century ago that the principle underly-
ing this inevitable liberty for men was put
into words: Governments derive their
just powers from the consent of the gov
erned." No sooner was the axiom enun-
ciated than the American Republic adopt
ed it as the guarantee of its liberty; and
it became the watchword of every people
striving for political freedom. A half CEN
fury later, a new band of truth-seekers
declared that women as well as men be-
long to the governed" and demanded
the application of the principle to citi-
zens. regardless of sex. AS usual, the new
truth was met by the united opposition of
society. But the half century of endeavor
has wrought satisfying results. Former
prejudices have been largely removed.
Ridicule has been replaced by serious con-
sideration, and limited suffrage for wo-
men has been established in nearly all
civilized nations and in half the States Of
the Union. Yet the work is far from COM
plete. Truth on one side of the Pyrenees
is lie on the other says Montague.
So. the right of woman to the ballot, ac-
knowledged as truth, by large majorties
in Wyoming. Colorado. Utah and idaho
is regarded as an inexpediency in some
portions of the United States and as a
social revolution in others.
The first years of the new century are
destined to witness the most strenuous
and intense struggle of the movement.
Iniquity has grown afraid of the votes of
women. Vice and immortality are conse-
Guent1y organized in opposition, while con-
servative morality stands shoulder to
shoulder with them, blind to the nature of
the Illicit partnership. Believers in this
cause are legion, but many, satisfied that
victory will come without their help, do
nothing. We are approaching the climax
of the great contest and every friend is
needed. If the final victory is long in
coming, the responsibility rests with those
who believe, but who do not act.
All friends of truth and liberty are es-
pecially invited to attend the thirty-third
annual convention of the National Ameri-
can Woman Suffrage Association which
will be held in the First Baptist church,
