Shenandoah Is a Vcritable Hell Hole"
Says Major hllIar, Inspector OF Penn.

Wilkesbarre, Pa.-Major w.
S. Hillar, Inspector of the Third
Brigade, who returned from
Shenandoah last night, gives this
explanation of the situation
there:
ga more God forsaken coun-
try | have never seen. Eighty
five percent of the population are
foreigners and 5000 to 10000
are anarchists.
"The Lithuanians fear not man
nor God. They have no regard
for law nor order, nor anything.
They run everything their own
way, and the priests say that no.
body has control over them. The
disturbing elements are at all
times ready for trouble, and
court it.
English speaking miners are
all right and have done a great
deal to help the troops there.
Mitchell nor any other individ-
ual can control those foreigners.
Nothing short of shot and shell
can keep them subdued. They
lie in the laurel bushes, which
grow in great profusion there, to
stone the troops.
CAT first the soldiers were in
structed to load with blank car
tridges, but they have been sup
piled with cartridge now and are
under instructions to shoot to
kill. General Goblin is determ-
ined that quiet shall prevail and
the attacking of our soldiers with
stones will not be tolerated for a
moment.
shenandoah is a verltable
hell hole. Ninety thousand bar
rels of beer are sold there annu-
ally to the miners. They dump
a barrel into washtub-wheth-
er it is clean or not makes not
the slightest difference, and then
they pour in a couple of quarts
of vile whiskey. The mixture is
stirred up with a broom handle
and is then ready to drink. Old
tin cups, broken glasses-any-
thing-are used in conveying the
stuff to the drinkers, who con-
sumo it until they reach an ad-
vanced state of intoxication and
are ready for murder and rapine. p"

Anti-Suffrasists In Politics.

One of the most amusing and
encouraging manifestations of
the progressive enlightenment of
women is the socalled "anti"-
suffrage movement. A few es-
Unable women are alarmed at
the demand that women shall be
recognized as responsible citi-
zens, and, in order to prevent it,
they form what may properly be
called a political organization.
They elect officers, employ lee
turers, hold meetings, attend
public hearings, circulate tracts
resort, In short, to every
imaginable political method
to persuade men not to allow
their sister women or themselves
to express their opinions at the
polls. But in doing so they
abandon their own ground, and
enter politics. Surely address
ing public meetings and issuing
printed manifestos involve more
publicity than merely dropping
piece of paper in a box once or
twice 10 year. 1t would puzzle
the ''Society Opposed to the
Further Extension of Suffrage to
Women" to explain why they
condemn voting for Governor or
President, while some of them
vote and urge other women to
vote for an improved school COM
mittee, and even serve on school
boards or as oyerseers of the
poor.

this is the way the toast read in

deluded men, while your untor-

He urged them not to sign petit

further said: 81 tell you men

understand steps will soon be
taken at another location to find
this same vein.
OF course it is trying upon the
consumers in the east to pay over
sixty cents per bushel for coal,
about the same price they would
pay for a bushel of wheat, yet
they through their sympathizers,
the strikers, receive comfort and
the price continues to advance
until bituminous coal now sells
at about 20 cents per bushel.
When consumers become blind
to their own interests as we'll as
the best interests of all, they de-
serve to pay high prices for coal
and other comforts of life, de-
pending in a measure upon the
coal supply.
Chief Clerk w. G. Wright of
the Crabtree Coal Company, has
about recovered from his late Sc
we're illness and has returned to
his books again. He hopes to
soon be able to move his family
to Ilsley, which the building of
a house now delays.
Foreman Toombs and crew
did some good substantial work
at the Victoria Mines last week
in the erection of hoist timbers
over the shaft. Although last
week was lost so far as the run
ming of the mine was concerned,
this week the production of coal
will be rushed.
Deserted by the leaders the U.
M. w. in this county seem to be
in a lamentable condition, in
deed. Not a sufficient number
can be gathered together, we are
informed, to hold a local meet
ing, and the result is they are
blue, indeed, and language not
generally used by christians can
now be heard on all corners.
The following clipping Will in
part corroborate the statement
made by The Bee last week
wherein it was stated that a large
lumber of miners from Illinois,
Indiana and Kentucky were or
dered east. In the clipping they
are referred to as hard coal min
ers, evidently for the purpose of
deceiving the public:
That the attempts of the an
thracite miners to prolong the
strike, begun thirteen weeks ago
are of the most determined char
acter, is now being demonstrated
by the men in this vicinity. Be-
ginning with last week there has
been a great influx of hard coal
strikers in this city, until today
the number is estimated to be
200. The men are of the English
speaking element who worked
in various capacities at the mines
about Pittston, Shenandoah,
Pottsville, Wilkesbarre and
Scranton. Nearly all are single.
Ready employment is found by
the mens and between Philadel-
phia and Pittsburg, inclusive,
thousands of men have secured
temporary positions. One of the
men here today asserted that if
they fail to win their fight they
would not return to the anthra-
cite regions, but would continue
in their present employment.
The men, however, believe be-
fore another month they will be
back to the mines with all the
concessions granted. In Altoona
the strikers have been received
with much consideration and
many are at work in the Penn
sylvania railroad shops, the new
classification yards and other in
dustries,
James Longstatf, who recently
returned from the far west, has
been employed in sinking a new
shaft at Nortonville.
