UNCLE SANS BIG JUMP.

The commercial and industrial
growth of the United States has been
most phenomenal. This is especially
true when we take into consideration
the large increase that has come to us
as a nation in the pursuits of peace
and the competition for the trade of
the world during the last thirty years.
To the people of this country our ad-
vancement has not been held as a
work of special Importance, but to the
inhabitants of other lands the accom-
plishment of the herculanean tasks
that have been successfully worked
out by the American people has filled
the observing nations with astonish-
ment.
The production of steel in the United
States shows the immense and almost
incomprehensible increase during the
last three decades of 1880 per cent.
Iron comes next with an advance of
700 per cent increase in the produc-
ton. Several of our different pro-
ducts have grown to the amount of 300
per cent. while numerous others have
at least been doubled. To the one who
has never carefully compared the out
put of the products in the different
lines of our numerous industries, a
glance at some of the figures that are
presented in the reports Of the results
accomplished in these industries and
commercial fields will be both instruc.
tive and amazing.
Since 1870 our production of corn
has jumped from 1,O0O,O00O0O bushels
annually to 2.000,OO0,000 bushels.
That is an increase of 100 per cent.
The production of wheat has jumped
from 235 100000 to 535, 100000 bushels.
That is more than 100 per cent. The
production of cotton has jumped from
100000 bales to 10000, 900 bales. That
is over 300 per cent The value of
farm products has jumped from
$2,447, 100000 to s5,739, 100000. That
is more than 100 per cent. The pro-
duction of petroleum has jumped
from 220,0OO,000 gallons to 660,OOO,-
900. That is about 800 per cent. The
production Of coal has jumped from
100000 tons to 260,O0O,OOO tons.
That is nearly 800 per cent. The pro-
duction of iron has jumped from
100000 tons to over 15,0O0,OOO tons.
That is over 700 per cent. The pro-
duction of steel has jumped from
10000 tons to 100000 tons. That
is 1880 per cent. The number Of

ORDERED TO SHOOT.

1t has become necessary to call
out the state troops for the pres
ervation of order on account of
the rash action adopted by few
of the striking miners last week in
Shenandoah. AS the result of this
outbreak and the failure of the local
authorities to quell the disturbance,
Governor Stone has deemed it proper
to call the national guard to the scene
of the disturbance to assist in preserv-
ing the peace, The arrival of the
troops at Shenandoah was not accom-
panic. ny special demonstration on
the part of the strikers and it was
thought by those in charge of the
troops that clash between the cit
liens and the soldiers coulu be averted
This delusion was, however, dispelled
when on Saturday night between the
hours of dark and daylight there were
three attacks made upon the guards
of the camp. Volleys of rocks and
hard earth were used in the assault
These attacks have resulted in the
order going forth from Brigadier Gen.
eral Goblin, who is in charge of the
camp for the sentinels to shoot and
shoot to kill in case the attacks should
be renewed. The Courier deprecates
the necessity.

The Congressional Situation.

The. democrats of this district it ap-
pears would like to ride to victory on
the union and socialist vote. We find
some of the democrats tell us that Mr..
Reese is a socialist. If Mr.. Reese is a
socialist | have never heard of it from
him, and, moreover, if Mr.. Reese was
a socialist he would not be democrat
lie candidate. Like all other union lead
ers, l presume he tells his followers to
keep out of politics. 1t seems that ev-
to build themselves up in the estima-
ton of the people Of the United States
the first thing they do is to slaughter
themselves at tae expense of the peo-
pie. In 1884 an army of men who vot-
ed for the democrats marched to Wash
ington to beg fer chance to live. The
democrats &C not pigeon-hole the
walking rNti: -, Dut they jailed it. In
July OF -. same year the Pullman
strike, representing the grandest union
the United States ever had, was
slaughtered by the power of democ-
racy.
