MINE WORKERS SEEK

Incumbent Commanded Posse Which
Shot Down Miners on Parade at
Lattimer in Strike of 1877.

WILKESBARRE, Pa. Dec 26.-The
United Mine Workers today instituted
legal proceedings TO revoke the appoint
ment of eN-Sheriff James Martin as
mine inspector Of the Seventh District.
The court which appointed him to I'LL
ar unexpired term OF three years has
been petiuoned to name another for the
place on the ground that Martin is in
competent and is feared and hated by
every miner in the region and cannot re-
ccive the cooperation SO necessary to
properly fulfill the duties of the Office.
EX-Sherin Martin was in command OF
the armed posse which shot down and
killed nineteen striking miners and in
jured thirty-one others at Lattiner Pa,
in September. 1897. The killed and in
jured men were marching along the
highway to a colliery where a number

COTTON OPERATIVES
GET THEIR DIVIDEND
Treasurer, However, Informs Them Out
look for the Industry Is More
Than Gloomy.

FALL RIVER. Mass. Dec 26.-The
opera tives of the Bourne mills have re-
ceived a profit-sharing dividend amount
ing 70 Pa per cent OF the wages they
received for six months from June Is.
II was the twenty-ninth semi-annual
dividend. and the system will be con-
tinued for another year. In q circular
TO the participants the treasurer says:
Your service has been gratifying and
the dividend has been increased one
half Of / per cent. It is pleasing TO
know that you have had constant en-
ployment during so mich curtaiiment.
The present situation is one of great I'M
certainty. Machinery has increased be-
yond the supply OF cotton and the de-
mand for cloth. Mills seem TO over
crop plantations. There is too little
cotton and too much cloth The mills
must make less cloth and use less cot
ton.
The advance in cotton amounts TO
s.. 10000 upon years supply for this
city. This IS more interesting when YOU
know that all the dividends reported
paid here by all the mills for the past
seven years amount to only S7.S3S III.
So that the speculative advance IN cot
ton within three months is a million dol
lars more than all the money paid to
stockholders within seven years by the
mills of the largest cotton manufacture
ing city in america.

LIBEL LAW. TO Be TRIED
ON WEEKLIES' EDITORS
Pennsylvania Publishers Confronted
With Prosecutions Under Salus-
Grady Statute.

POTTSVILLE. Pa. Deco. GA gen.
eraI test of the salus-Grady libel law is
likely to be made in the State soon. par
ticularly as TO the question whether the
law applies to weekly newspapers. a
large proportion of the latter have ig-
nored the law altogether. and have not
even taken the perfunctory step of print
ing the name of the editor and owners,
although the law prescribes a penalty
of 500 for each issue published with
such omission.
After the storm Of public opinion
which followed the passage of the libel
bill those who were instrumental in
securing it's passage were very willing
that no attempt should be made to en-
force it. Those who attended confer
ences of the Republican State leaders
at that time say that many of the poll
ticians were fearful Of the effect which
the united action OF the Republican
papers in the State might have. The
recent State campaign. however. con-
WINGED the leaders that they had moth
ing TO fear from subservient Republican
papers. but that. the great majority of
them could be induced to tamely acqui-
esce in any program the leaders might
agree upon.
Governor Pennypacker has all along
contended that the law applied to week
ly as well as daily papers. Who is back
OF the coming movement TO test the
question Is not known, although the
opinions of several Schuylkill county
lawyers have been secured as to the
method of proceeding against those
papers which ignore the plain provisions
Of the law.

How Bandits Held Jp
The King of Sardinia
VIcfos Emmanuel Surrendered His Purse and Oy ASKED
Permission TO Hunt in Peace.

LONDON. Dec. 26-The recent visit OF
King Victor Emmanuel of Italy TO King
Edward OF England, and the zest with
which the former hunted on the English
monarch's preserves. have brought forth
a good story of his grandfather, the first
Victor Emmanuel, and his hunting ex-
perience.
Prior 20 the confederation of the Ital-
ian states, he was King of Sardinia,
and enjoyed nothing more than hunt
ing. But he was a democratic monarch,
and detested the ceremony with which
he was surrounded on all occasions. His
greatest complaint was caused by the
presence OF soldiers who insisted on
accompanying him wherever he went.
They were all right In their place. but
he finally decided that he would have
more fun on his raiug trips if he
went alone.
Accordingly. he made preparation for
the hunt, and gave orders that ne was
to be unaccompanled. He was enjoying
himself hugely in the forest, when ne
was suddenly confronted by couple Of
