The Coal Timers Statement.

After six weeks of the strike in the
anthracite coal region settlement of diff
ferences between operators and miners
seems as far off as ever, the mine owners
absolutely refusing to grant any demands
or listen to offers of arbitration, being
determined apparently to starve their
employees into submission and compel
them to accept such terms as they see fit
to make President Mitchell of the
United Mineworkers of America, has
issued statement of the position of the
miners, with recital of their grievances,
in which he states they had done all that
honorable men could do both to avert
and to end the strike, but that it was ap-
parent that the real purpose of the coal
among their workmen. He reiterates
the proposition to arbitrate all questions
in dispute and declares that should their
premises be wrong or their demands not
sustained by facts and figures they will
return TO the mines. The average annual
earnings are stated to he less than those
United States, Notwithstanding the fact
that their work is more hazardous and
the cost Of living greater than i'll any other
important American industry The av-
erage wage is placed at 81 AZ for To-
hour work day, the miners being employ
ed never to exceed 200 days i'll any one
year.
Concerning the contention of the op-
orators that an increase of wages to the
miners would mean corresponding in
crease in the price of coal to the con.
slmer President Mitchell says their solic-
itude for the public veal has not deter
red the operators from advancing the
market price of their coal more than 81
ton since the strike was inaugurated
without giving any part of the increase to
the mine workers.
While ?. $40 pounds is legal ton the
miner is compelled to produce and load
from 2,74o to $3.50 pounds for ton, the
operators claiming that the excess weight
is required 10 compensate them for i'm
purities and refuse matter that are loaded
with the coal and cannot be marketed.

Cleveland and Harmony.

Among the distinguished guests at the
Tilden Club harmony" dinner, held in
New York on the evening of the 18TH
inst, was ex-President Grover Cleveland
Numerous factions of the Democratic
party were represented at the dinner,
which was intended to be a sort of love
feast for the patching up of factional diff
ferences. Former political rivals and
factional enemines fraternized with each
other and pledged themselves to bury the
hatchet-for little while. Among the
speakers of the evening 10 make burn
ing appeals for harmony in the party was
Mr.. Cleveland. That the ex-President's
attempt to pose as harmonizer is not
looked upon with the enthusiastic una
nimity some of the Democratic organs
claim, is evnced by the roasting" he
is receiving from various quarters. Henry
Watterton, of the Louisville Courier
Journal, takes fling at Grover in which
he says: ut seems kind of irony that
it should be Tilden club to welcome Mr..
Clevelaud's baleful re-entry Into political
activities. Mr. Tilden died with the
words of scorn and contempt upon his
lips for Grover Cleveland. He under
stood perfectly the coarse texture of Mr..
Cleveland's physical and mental makeup;
his ob,use selfshness, his ignorant OBJ
stinacy, his vulgar self assertion, his in
defatigable duplicity."
William Jennings Bryan was one of the
conspicuous abseutees of the gathering
although invited. and he also makes few
remarks on Mr.. Cleveland and his past :
'Mr. Cleveland secured his nomination
i'll 1892 by a secret bargain with the
fnanciers; his committee collected from
the corporations and spent the largest
campaign fund the party ever had; he
filed his Cabinet with corporation agents
and placed railroad attorneys on the
United States bench to look after the
interests of their former clients. He
turned the Treasury over to a Wall street
syndicate, and the financial member of
his official fam ly went from Washington
TO become the private attorney of the
man who forced ~ the Treasury Depart
ment TO sell him Government bonds at
los and then resold them at III. He
tried to prevent the adoption of the in
come tax provision, he refused to sign the
only tariff reform measure passed since
the war, and while laundering against
the trusts in his messages did even less
than Knox has done to interfere with
their high-handed methods. Having de-
bauched his party, he was offended by its
effort to reform and gave comfort to the
enemy. And now, still gloating over his
political crimes, he Invites the party to
return to him and apologize for the con-
tempt which it has expressed for him
Will it? Not until the principles OF Jef-
ferson are forgotten and the works of
Jackson cease 20 inspire"
