ARE THEY FAIR !?

Newly mined anthracite coal
has reached New York. The op-
orators have taken hand in the
control of prices and are requlr-
ing dealers to sell the coal at not
more than $3.50 a ton. In the
eyes of many people, coal oper-
.ators, antracite or bituminous,
are conscienceless sharks, but the
operators now demand that a
minimum profit be taken from
the public in need of coal.
Doubtless, however, those who
choose will be able to invent
some. ulterior motive to which to
attribute this apparently mag
unanimous action of the anthra-
cite operators. Above all things
the uniformed or Informed
person should stand by his guns
and demand that the public be
not deceived by any possibly ap-
parent reason to credit the oper-
ators with humane or a public
spirited motive.

REUOLT AGAINST UMIONLSM.

REVOLT AGAINST UMIONLSM.
In this issue is a story from
Sturgis of a revolt by merchants
and farmsrs whose patience has
been exhausted by unwarranted
interference in trade on the part
of the United Mine Workers and
allied unions. Efforts have been
made to organize all branches OF
labor there and finally concer-
ted attempt to throttle all busi-
ness not done by unionists or in
strict in accordance with their
instructions, which requires that
all employees of any business
shall belong to a union.
A reyolt has occurred. These
business men and farmers have
seen the danger of domination by
the labor trust, which, if not
combated, would not only con-
troll all trade, but could regulate
the supply of labor and determ-
inc the wages to be paid there
for. They may also fix their
initiation fees a prohibitive fig
ure in order to shut out addition
al workmen and keep all work
for a limited number, and they
may and often do in many places
prevent the employment of even
the union men in good standing,
when the owners of the business
want and need additional labor.
A case in point which was pub
lished in The Bee about one year
ago, occurred at the mines of
the Central Coal and Iron Com
pany. A union man, in good
standing and with proper creden-
tials, sought employment from
that company. At this time
there were no less than sixty
places in the mines of that COM
pany not assigned to any of their
employees. These places the
Central Company wanted to fill
but the union would not allow
any more men to be employed,
Notwithstanding the company
was crowded with orders it could
not fill. This union man was
prevented by the check-weigh-
man from seeing the bank COM
committee, and bv the check
weighman was prevented from
getting any employment.

Statement

There have been no new Developments in

day. Mr.. Sheehan, business agent of the

Wednesday night with several men who
are to take the places of the striking Fed
GRAFTON of Labor men in Pittsburg. This
makes about fifty men in all whom the
Knights of Labor have sent to take the
places of the Federation men
Mr.. Lewis, business agent of the Fed
GRAFTON of Labor painters in this city,
gave cut the following statement to a
Tines reporter yesterday afternoon:
We have taken into our organization
during the past two weeks forty of the
Knights of Labor PAINTERS, and as soon
as business picks up and the Knights of
Labor men are refused work by the
master painters we expect TO gather in
the rest of them. | received a telegram
from Pittsburg this morning saying:
Three hundred members of the building
trades organizations employed on the new
Arrott Building in this city quit work
today. Thirty of the knights of Labor
painters from Washington, d. c.. have
taken the places of the strikers. The
strike leaders say they will call out all
members of building trades on every
building on which non-union painters
are employed
1.-The statement of the knights of La
bor that they can stop the work of the
painters in this city Is absurd. II neces-
sary, the Federation painters could adopt
the knights of Labor tactics. and send to
Pittsburg and other places for painters
to work here during the busy season."

The complainant is said to be one Emil

charges are considered unworthy of in
vestigation, however, and here the mat
ter is likely to. rest unless there should

The story which is being told in polit-
ical circles is that the charges referred to

chances for success would be greater un-
der Bryan than they were under his op-
pouent.
The Ambassador was in frequent com
munication with Democrats known to bo
friendly with Bryan. the story continues,
being IN particularly close touch with
Representative Lentz OF Ohio. who is Of
German American birth.
Frequent consultations were held, it is
alleged, contemplating such action on the
part of the Ambassador as would infiu-

of Bryan.

AN EVENTFUL DAY
When Coffee Left the Household.

~ never began to use coffee until after
! began teaching school, then a good,
motherly old dame served such nice cof-
fee that she got me into the way of drink
ing it.
Inside of a year became wreck from
insomnia and nervous prostration. Every
afternoon | was so drowsy and filled with
apprehension that | would have crying
spells without knowing why
II laid around the house in misery, and
was misery TO everyone else. Once in
a while a friend would tell me that ccf-
fee was the cause of my trouble. | rea-
soned with them that / only had one cup
al breakfast and that was not enough to
cause the trouble. but | found that that
was the secret-that one cup OF coffee.
1T was an eventful day in our house
hold when | quit coffee and started max
ing Postum. | followed the directions
and the result was wonderful; no other
words express it, The Postum Coffee
was OF a rich, beautiful color, and when
cream was added looked as delicious as it
tasted.
"A doctor who was in the house tasted
the Postum and said that it was equal to
the best Mocha or Java, then quickly
turned away as though IL WIS incompre-
hensible. He suspected there was coffee
in ii but have been assured OF the abso-
lutte purity OF the Postum and have conf
dcnce in it.
Nothing ever tasted better to me than
that first, well-made cup OF Postum, and
never since have | tasted coffee, and
now look back with horror upon the
sickness it caused. We began very quick
ly to see the difference between my con-
dition under Postum and under common
coffee. / lost that feeling OF despair and
restlessness which oppressed me every al
ternoon and / began tc sleep like baby
Postum must be given the credit Tor all
my Improvement.
"A word about tea also. One time when
/ was visiting had package OF Postum
with me. 1t gave out and before l could
get another | had tea for breakfast
Within a few days the old wretched feel
ing that coffee used to give me came back.
and all through the long afternoon | felt
that must weep and weep, though really
over nothing at all.
Insomnia came back. but | quickly
luit the tea and got all right again.

Braume, the injured man, was placed in
a cab and taken to the Emergency Hos
