COAL STRIKE IS ON.

The coal strike is now on and the
President has a chance to exercise an
extraordinary power and take posses
sion of the mines and have them
worked in the interests of the people.
From the best information to be OBJ
tanned, one is led to believe to the
opinion that the operators were just
as anxious for the strike as were the
miners. The mine owners have mil
lions of tons of coal mined and ready
for the shipment and consequently
are in a position to make no conces-
sions to the miners and will be IN a
position to advance the price of coal
to the family and manufacturer to a
figure that will be outrageously-a
hold-up. The government should GER
tainly protect the people from the
proposed robbery.

This is the way new potatoes are
manufactured in Paris: Old pot atOeS,
the cheapest and smallest that can be
purchased, are bought by the rlfisto-
Ieurs de pommes de terre, as they are
called, who carry their property to the
banks of the Seine, a good supply of
water being necessary. The potatoes
are put into tubs half filled with water;
then they are vigorously stirred about
by the feet and legs of the manufac-
turers, who roll up their trousers and
stamp on the raw potatoes until they
have not only completely rubbed off
their dark skins, but have also given
them that smooth and satin-like APP
pearance which is so much appreciated
by Commands. They are then dried,
neatly wrapped in paper and arranged
in small baskets, which are sold at the
marchands DIES comestibles for francs
apiece. The oldest part of the whole
| business is that the ratistoleurs make
no secret of their trace.

The Economy of Burning Small Coal.
1t is a common delusion that Il small
fuel must necessarily be Of low calorific
value, and accordingly Of doubtful eco
nomic value even if it can be burned.
AS matter of fact, many small fuels
are of excellent calorific value, and
when burned with suitable appliances
will show phenomenal saving. Again
and again have [ seen an evaporation
of ten pounds Of water per pound Of
fuel obtained with slack from Welsh
steam coal costing from 5 to 6 shillings
per ton less than the large coal Slack
from a good Welsh steam coal q really
remarkable value for money ) ON
pared with the large coal from Y hich
it is separated Generally spea ing,
twenty tons Of such slack will eyaDO-
rate fully as much water as nineteen
tons Of the large coal, and assuming
their respective costs per ton to be 10
shillings and 20 shillings the saving to
the steam user will be the difference
in cost between twenty tons at -
shillings per ton and nineteen tons at
20 shillings per ton, say f4.-W. f.

A SENSATIONAL BOOK.

A sensational book has been written
by Frenchman by the name of George
Morneau and published by publishing
house in Paris, in which he predicts
the disruption of the United States,
which he claims are only held together
by the false and artificial bonds He
evidently has not read the history of
an attempt forty-fve years ago by the
ambitious leaders in the several of the
states to disrupt the Union and the
result of the effort. The Union will
never be dissolved, for the interests
of the states constituting the general
confederacy are so interviewed that
disunion would be impossible. If
there is any danger to be apprehended
in this country it will be of a local
character and be a conflict between
antagonastic forces arraying the
masses against the classes and the
enactment of laws that will tend to
place all upon an equality. The
growth of an aristcracy built upon
wealth wrung from labor is becoming
more and more repugnant each day,
and capital if it is wise, will listen to
the demands of the people before it is
too late. During the past few years,
they must have noticed that the voters
have become exceedingly indepen-
dent, voting for their own welfare
rather than in the interest of trust
and corporations when men voted
their party ticket without question.
1t will continue, and it will be we'll
for the aggregated wealth of the
countryto forestall the socialistic senti-
ment that is becoming general by
giving the iaboring and producing
classes a square deal''-not taking
the grist and giving them the toll-the
inside of the orange and giving them
the peeling and seeds. There cannot
be a dismemberment of the Union,
but there can be and possibly will be
great changes in the laws by which
the producers of wealth will share in
it's distribution.

Art by the Ton.

An American city once asked Mac

clined to compete. Then the commits
sion was rendered to him outright. He
submitted sketches of his idea for the
groups. The committee in charge of
the monument wrote him, asking,
How many tons of granite do you in
tend to use in the baSeT His reply
was: IF you are in the business of
buying granite you may use rs much
as you want, one ton or 100000 tons
| am an artist, and l never yet heard
of art being bought by the pound. ,"
The question was dropped until the
contract for the commission was
drawn When Mr.. MacMonnies re-
ceived it he discovered in it a clause
providing that in case the bronzes were
ever thrown down from their base, by
any cause whatever, and any person
or property should be injured, he and
his heirs forever should be liable for
the damage sustained. He returned
the contract without comment, unsign-
ed. When the committee wrote him,
asking the reason, his brief reply was,

WHERE LEADER STANDS.

In replying to an editorial which
appeared in the Milwaukee Free Press
on the 3rd inst, the Leader would in
form Mr.. Myrick that the Leader is
neither stalwart nor half-breed, but
a strictly Republican paper, anxious
for the success of the best men and
principles. No clique nor faction nor
party influences control the opinions
of this paper and it would as soon sup
port a half-breed as stalwart for
office such support being governed by
the fitness of the candidate seeking
such support rather than the candida
ties factional alliances.
Now, in regard to the primary
election law which the Leader criticised
and which inspired the editorial in
the Free Press, the Leader would say
that it would have criticised the law
lust the same had it been enacted by
stalWarts instead of half-breeds- il
is not so factionally blind as to cal
bad good and good bad, simply because
Of factional affiliations.
The law has but few redeemine
features. 1t was enacted for pur
pose, with which no doubt the editor
of the Free Press is familiar, but tn,
law has proven snare and a delu
sion, and should, in the Judgment o
the Leader, which may not be tn
best in the world, be repealed or great
" modified for the following good an
sufficient reasons:
Party organizations and principle
are, practically lost.
2 Combinations and deals of eve
a more dangerous kind than under tn
