The Filipinos will doubtless have
the same independence that Ameri-
cans enjoy, and it may be said that
even Americans cannot shoot down
our soldiers without being shot in
return; or commit heinous crimes
without being punished.

The Philippine question should not
be party question and the interests

present the highest officers in the is
lands, Gen. Luke Wright for the civil

army, are respectively democratic
and republican, ex-Confederate and
ex-Union soldier.

remarked in the senate during the de-

Editorial Notes.

Congressional campaigns are now
on and the republican party is to be
called uron for the biennial account OF
the stewardship of the legislative az
fairs of the country. 1t is needless to
say that it does not shrink from the
scrutiny.
Five years ago when the republican
party succeeded to the control of nat
ional affairs, business was stagnant,
credit impaired, currency disordered
and industries PROSTATE. After the
task of putting the national house in
order was accomplished the party not
only brought the country to the high
est point in it's prosperity but to the
highest point of prosperity in the his
tory of the world; and this in spite of
three wars in two hemispheres, Cuba,
China and the Philippines.
The British war roffice states that
the total number of boer prisoners
was %, sos. Reports of captures dur
ing the war gave the impression that
the number was far, IN excess of these
figures.
The independence of Cuba under
republican sponsorship from this
country is one of the chief glories of
the times and the withdrawal Of our
troops from the Philippines, advocat-
ed by the democrats, with the conse-
quent turning of the islands over to
rapine and pillage would be the
browning infamy of the age.

INDUSTRIAL JoTTINGS.
Situation at the Mines Where Strikes
Are on Because of the Swinging
Shifts-other Notes.

The employees of the Avondale, Wood
ward and Pettebone collieries, operated
by the Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western company, are still idle, owing
to the refusal of the firemen, who We're
employed in the boiler rooms, to accept
the 'swing shift" inaugurated by the
company some time ago.
When the men quit work, others We're
put in their places, and when the old
men signified a willingness to return to
work, the company refused to discharge
the men who were employed to take
the strikers places. On this point the
trouble hinges.
Already the situation has become
somewhat critical in view of the fact
that the mine workers have placed
pickets around the three collieries to
try and induce the engineers and fire.

but thus far they have been unsuccess-
ful.

AN ANALYSIS OF IMPORTS.

T~llE announcement OF the treasury bureau Of
statistics that the importations of manu-.
facurcrs materials have increased fifty
seven million dollars while the to-
tai imports Of all kinds were increasing
but sixty.one millions. has awakened in
tcrcst in the details Of these ilnnortations.
To supply the information thus asked, the bu-
rcau OF statistics has prepared Il statement show.
ing the principal articles which make up the
class known as manufacturers materials, and
comparing the quantity imported in the present
fiscal year with the same months Of the preceding
year. This comparison by quantities is still more
striking than that which presented merely values,
for it shows material decrease in the cost Of
the manufacturing material per unit Of quantity
in mary eases.
Raw cotton, silk, wool, fbres, tobacco, hides,
rubber, wood, tin. copper and chemicals form
the bulk Of the importations OF raw materials
for use In manufacturing. In nearly all OF these
comparison Of the quantities and values OF the
importations OF 1902 with those OF preceding
years shows that the increase in quantity is
greater than the increase in value. In raw cot
ton, for example, the quantity imported in the
eight months ending with February was 6S,30S,-
567 pounds against &c, ,s3l, $50 pounds in the
responding months Of last year; yet the value
in the past eight months was ~ ,406, $50 against
si,5i3,5Sl in the eight months OF last year. In
other words the quantity more than doubled
Importations Of India rubber were, in the last
eight months, 33,3 800 pounds against 3S,2sl,-
7s6 pounds in the same months ending with Feb
ruary, 1900; while the declared value. Of the
importations OF the past eight months was slG,-
S06, 1877. against S2l,i7i9is in the same months
ending with February, 1900. In this case, it will
be observed, the quantities for the two periods
are almost identical while the value in 1902
shows reduction Of about SO per cent, as com.
pared with that Of 1900. Raw silk also shows
decrease in the cost per unit Of quantity The
imports OF the eight months just ended We're
S,s25,5il pounds, against S,2i7,sSs pounds In the
corresponding months ending with February,
1900; but the cost in the eight months just
ended was s,63l, against $3l s43 062 in the
eight months ending with February, 1900 In
this case 1t will be observed that the quantities
are almost identical, but that the cost in the
more recent period Is about two and Q half
millions less than that for the earlier period.
OF tin, for use in manufacturing tin plate, the
imports Of the past eight months were 4T,a52,-
DOL pounds, valued at sll,75s,472; while in the
eight months ending with February, 1900. the
importations were AS,7ss.7s7 pounds, and the
cost $ll,ss4 ,9s6. In this case the cost in the
two periods was about identical, but the quan.
tity in the 1909 period was about 0 per cent

There is a likelihood of serious trouble
arising unless a settlement is effected
soon. Committees have waited on
Superintendent Phillips and received
the company's ultimatun, to the effect
that they will not discharge any of the
men now employed, but agree to take
back the strikers in other positions, and
reinstate them as firemen as the op-
portunities present themselves.
The union men want an eight-hour
shift and all of their firemen reinstated
but the company insists upon retain
ing their present forces. About twenty
five men are on strike, and this small
number is responsible for over 1,5OO men
and boys being idle.
The matter was taken up by the dis
trict board of the United Mine Workers
some time ago, but they were appar-
emily unable to effect settlement, This
strike is one of the alleged grievances
which the Shamokin convention incor-
porated in their recent demands.
