THE COAL TRUST.
Its Position nade Stronger by the
Decision OF RoOsevelt'S Arbi-
tratiOn Commission.

The fact is just beginning to dawn
upon Il few editors that the coal trust
is now in Il stronger position than
eyer-befOre. and can continue to tax
the people millions of dollars each
year with perfect impunity. The
commission refused to take into con-
siderati ON the question that the trust
was an Illegal organization and ex-
listed in direct violation OF the laws
and constitution of the state of Penn
sylvania and the laws of congress,
aud by that course gave the trust
semi Official authority, which it never
had before.
Persons who suppose that the an
thracite coal trust will bear the brunt
of the ten per cent. advance in the
wages of workmeu, recommended by
the Roosevelt commission, might as
we'll revise their conclusion. The re-
duction of fifty cents a ton in anthra-
cite coal prices, beginning with April,
will still leave the price fifty cents a
ton above the schedule one year ago.
When the strike began in May, 1902,
the average cost of labor to produce
ton of coal was 81 38. The ten per
cent. increase in wages awarded by
the strike commission will amount to
"a little less than fourteen cents ton.
AS against this increase of fourteen
cents in the cost of the production of
coal the anthracite roads are receiv-
ing fifty cents extra for all the coal
sold. This gives the roads a profit
of thirty-siX cents after allowing for
the increased wages. 1t is believed
that the output of anthracite coal this
year will amount to $4,000, 600 tons.
The increased profit of thirty-six cents
ton will, therefore, mean an increas-
ed revenue of $21, 800, 900. The an-
thracite coal roads are clearly in the
strongest financial position they have
occupied for years.
The absurdity of republican claims
that the authorities in that party in
tend to in any way interfere with the
trusts, is mace manifest by the way
Baer and the coal trust has been
strengthened. and it is the most wick
ed and inhuman of all the trusts. AS
we look back upon the havoc, misery
and death that it has caused during
the last winter, and then reflect that
it is not only not to be interfered with,
but fostered and built up, we may
we'll forecast the treatment that the
other trusts will get at the hands OF
the same party. The political play
in congress at 'strust busting" will
deceive no man who has common
sense.-Nebraska Independent.

First Annual Ball.

The first annual ball of the Uni
formed Rank of the Knights of Pyth-
las, given Wednesday night. was a
decided success. In spite of the in
clement weather, quite a large crowd
attended. The members of the COM
pany were in full uniform and pre-
scented handsome appearance.
Adam Reemer was master of ceremon-
les and Wilson's orchestra furnished
the music. The floor was we'll waxed
and everything passed off smoothly.
Cards and games we're provided for
those not gifted with terpslchorean
talents and for those who had not
yet learned the graceful art of dane
ing. The hall was kept open until
about a. M. the guests thinning
out as the rain-drops. sounded more
distinctly on the night air. Taken
all in all, the ball was a most de-
lightful affair and the members of
the Uniformed Rank are to be con-
graduated upon the success which at
tended their efforts. The dancing
public will look forward with pleas
ure to the time of their next annual
entertainments and it is I'd be hoped
the weather will be more favorable.
