The demand from Hawaii and the
Philippines for the admission of Chin
csc labor TO those islands under GER
tain restrictions, should not, because
of prejudice and popular clamor, be
dismissed without consideration.
In Hawaii, the need of snch labor is
beyond dispute as the increase in
acreage under cultivation has far out
stripped the supply of labor. In the
Philippines, the conditions are even
worse. White men will not and can
not do the work demanded in develop
ing the vast resources of our tropical
possessions. The native cannot be
depended upon He only works by
fits and starts when necessity drives
him to toll.
If by restrictions the Chinese can be
prevented coming from the islands TO
this country and so competing with
our own labor, there can certainly be
no objection to admitting a limited
number to meet the absolute demands
of the situation. 1t seems nhat any
other policy would destroy the indus
tries in Hawaii and seriously retard,
if not entirely prevent, the progress
of development i'm the Philippines.

Aftermath OF the Coal strike.

The effects of the great coal strike
in the anthracite coal regions will
make themselves felt i'm very prac-
teal way long after the dramatic in
cidents of the strike have passed from
the public mind That the immediate
pecuniary losses both to capital and
labor resulting from the strike will be
enormous, goes without saying; but i'm
addition TO these the anthracite coal
trade will unquestionably suffer a SER
ious loss, because of the widespread
public attention which had been di-
rected to the great question of utiliz-
ing other domestic fuel supplies than
that of anthracite coal
After all is said and done, we are
very much the creatures of habit 4,
even in America We have used an
thracite coal SO long, and so exclus-
lively, that TO the majority of worka-
day citizens il has never occurred
that there might be substitutes which
would be superior to anthracite in
economy, and greatly superior to it in
convenience and cleanliness of use
and operation. There are thousands
of homes, in which, previous to the
strike, the use of gas and coal oil for
heating and cooking purposes was I'M
known, that have been driven by nee
essity to the use of these fuels, and
have formed such good opinion of
their qualities, that they are certain
to continue their use, either in whole
or in part, to the prejudice of the in
terests of the retail coal dealer.

1.-THE Worlds Coal Supply and
Trade" is the title of monograph
Just Issued by Ine Treasury Bureau of
Statistics. 1t shows that the United
States not only leads the world in
coal production but has advanced
from third place to the head of the
list since 1880 In that year the Unit
ed States produced one-ffth of the
coal of the world; last year its produc-
ton was one-third of the total of the
world The coal production of the
United States has quadrupled since
1880, while that OF the remainder OF
the world has not quite doubled. The
three great coal-producing countries
of the world are the United States,
United Kingdom aud Germany.
These three countries produce prac-
tically so per cent of the worlds coal.
Since 1880 the United States has in
creased her output by 22l, 900, 900
short tons, Germany by 1O3,OO0,OO0
tons, and the United Kingdom by
80, 000. 900.

We are glad to note that merit is
occasionally recognized, Bedding al
ways comes down to the county seat
line with good majority and if she
is thrown down occasionally it rarely
makes any diffeaence with her vote.
However, matters are coming our

the assurance is given that the pearly

1t is reported that between 10000
and 30, 600 colonists have gone into the
far western, northwestern and south
western States during the past two
months. The movement of home
makers and settlers has never been so
great in the history of the western
railroads. The western states are
anxious to have the Government ir-
rigation works commence construc-
tion at the earliest possible date.

The government has decided that
people living along rural mail route
may receive mail in any kind of box
they see fit to put out. This decision
was brought about by the complaint
of poor woman living in western
state, who said the carrier refused to
leaye her mail because she put out a
bird cage as receptacle, she being
too poor to buy a new box. The of
fcials gave it as their opinion that
the carrier was acting beyond his au-
thority in refusing to leave the mail
and that the bird cage of the poor
woman was entitled to as much con-
sideration as the patent box of the
more prosperous.
