SUPPORT SLAVE PENSIONS.

BIRMINGHAM. Ala, Feb. Camp Har-
dee, United Confederate Veterans, today
unanimously passed the following resolu-
tiohs indorsing the bill introduced by sena-
tor Hanna to provide for the pensioning
Of forme slaves;
Whereas, There was a bill introduced in
congress this week by request to bestow a
pension upon all destitute former slaves;
Resolved, by Camp Hardee No. 80, United
Confederate Veterans, Of Birmingham,
Ala, That we heartily indorse this bill and
sincerely hope that congress will act Upon
IL and give TO all worthy former slaves
who are in Iced a suf1cient pension to keen
them from suffering and want. A most
kindly feeling, almost that of comradeship.
prompts us to express ourselves in this
manner, realizing that the southern slave
was not the cause, BY any act OF his own.
of shedding one drop of blood In the civil
war. On the contrary, he remained on the
farm, laboring peacefully day by day with
out Z murnlur. to feed and clcthe the south
ern army hghting at the ront.
Since the war he has been law-abiding
and industrious and the smallest number
has been guilty OF crime, We feel that the
former slaye and the former confederate
soldier Will go In history together, and,
too, in q strange relationship, the one fight
ing TO keep the slave In slavery, the other
by his labors furnishing the meat and APP
piiances 60 carry on this warfare without
one word Of protest or complaint.

the Indiana miners agreed to withdraw
the shot-iring bill from the senate wAere
II is a special order for Monday morning.
The operators concede that the agree
ment is q victory for the miners. while the
men are 5ubilant over the victory.
The scale shows that many material con-
cessions have been made from the original
demands Of the miners. They did not get
the absolute run OF mine basis, nor the
nat differentiaI OF Z cents. They asked
for an advance OF 12h cents per ton and
received 6 cents on the mine run basis.
An increase Of 20 per cent is made on in
side day labor. The scale is not palatable
to the operators. C. s. Brooks, secretary
OF the Ohio operators, said: 1.-THE con-
ditions Of the Industrial world and the coal
market are such that we we're compelled
to sccede to the demands Of the men. but,
remember. It will be a dear victory for
them.
Before many years there will be q time
Of depression. then the fall win be mighty
for the miners. It is the worst days work
they have ever done"
