The decision of the coal strike
commission is decided victory for
the miners, although the Miners
union is not recognized, The most
important feature of the awards is
the 10 per cent increase given the
contract miners, and shorter hours
per day for other miners. This is to
continue in force until March 81,
1906. The increase to the 140, 900
anthracite miners of Pennsylvania
will annually amount to $4,000, 900.
The reduction in hours gives nine
hours day with ten hours pay to
80, 900 men. Back pay amounting
to nearly $4,000, 900 will be paid to
the miners. The report is an adj
vanced step in the settlement of dis
pute between capital and labor by
arbitration.

to be in swearing off their taxes.
Astor, Rockefeller, Vanderbilts and
a host of others are on the list as

the tax officials he would pay on
$4O0, 900 or nothing. His offer was
accepted. Along with this comes
the news that Rockefeller got an
eight million dollar check last week

A GRANGE LIBRARY.

An Important Confederation In the
Best Grange Work.
It is we'll for us to remember In our
outline of grange work for the year be-
fore us that some provision should be
made for library, or, IL one is already
owned, then additions should be made
to it systematically. There is nothing
which enters more deeply into the warp
and woof Of ones character than the
books we read. The practice Of keep
ing before the minds Of our young
men and young women beautiful and
uplifting images, bright, cheerful and
helpful thoughts from good books is Of
inestimable value. The difference be-
tween the future of the boy who has
formed the habit Of good reading and
the one who has not is as great AZ be-
tween the educated and the uneducat-
ed. Next to the actual society Of no.
BILE, high minded author Is the benefit
to be gained by reading his books. The
mind is brought into harmony with the
hopes and ideals Of the writer. 90 that
it is impossible afterward to be salts
fed with low or ignoble things. The
horizon of the reader broadens, his
point Of view changes, his ideals are
higher and nobler, and his outlook on
life is more elevated. Let the grange
library become a permanent fixture

Worthy Master w. F. Hill Of the
Pennsylvania state grange, referring
to the educational work Of the grange
in his annual address, said 1t affords
the very best opportunity for the farm

the social intercourse 1t provides for
the farmer and his family. the valuable
discipline of this we'll established, con-

factors in building a better, stronger
rural citizenship. Who is 1t that has

conscious of its having made him
stronger man, with more love for our

The arrival of these melons begins

however, are later than last year.
Peaches have begun to arrive also,
and in this connection it is interesting
to note that Mr.. John NJ. Egan, pres
ident of the Central of Georgia, who
has just returned to Savannah from
Chattanooga, reports that the condition
of the fruit and berry growers of along
the line of the Rome and Chattanooga
division of the Central is excellent.
Peach growers, he stated yesterday,
are in particularly good shape for
while the yield will be smaller than
excellent, so good that buyers are Of
fering 81 a tree for the fruit on the
tree and will pick, pack and ship them
selves. Some of the growers think they
can do even better than that. and are
holding out for 81 so tree. The straw
berry growers, Mr.. Egan states, have
made $50 to the acre on their berries.
