The senate. house of representatives

The senate, house OF representatives
and Grover Cleveland, then president,
were all democratic and supported this
bill, which placed coal on the free list.
madam and Welsh coal free, which 'af-
fected the eastern mining districts OF
Pennsylvania, Virginia and West Vir-
ginia, and brought down the price OF
digging. This drove the miners from
the states mentioned into the Ohio field
and then into Indiana and from Indi-
ana to Illinois, from Illinois into Iowa,
and it is well known fact that at that
time we had four times as many min
ers in Iowa as there was work for, as
well as in the other states named. This
condition brought about the inaugura-
ton of Coxey's army, which started
from Massillon, Ohio, one of the great
est mining centers in the country, and
Kelly's army, which floated down the
Des Moines river, then went east and
landed at Washington, D. c.. where
President Cleveland put up notices all
around the White House to all labor
very miserable state of affairs.
What reversed this condition?
It was the passing of the Dingley
bill, which again placed a tariff of rs
cents per ton on coal. and want to
tell you emphatically that Major John
F. Lacey was an ardent supporter ')f
the Dingley bill. Major Lacey has all
ways worked for the interests Of the
coal miners.
1t was John r. Lacey who introduced
a bill in congress in 1890 for the pro-
lection of the lives of miners in the In
dian Territory and created the office Of
territorial, inspector Of mines in that
territory.
Have you forgotten our brother
| workman, John Iaddow, who was In
carcerated in Jail in Virginia for work.
| ing in our interests and remained in
Jail until our beloved congressman,
John F. Lacey. appealed to the White
House in Washington and secured his
coal miner, toiler, Aid his home was
at Keb. four miles northwest Of this
city. Another reason why you should
support our congressman at this time
is the fact that the savings banks of
our country have Increased in their de-
posits eighty per cent since 1896, show
| ing the prosperous condition of the
country, and we as coal miners have
our fair proportion Of these deposits.
| We made no deposits during Cleve-
lands democratic administration.
| Our state senator, Hon. S. H. Harper.
has never been found wanting in our
| interests, and he no doubt will have an
opportunity in the coming session OF
the state legislature to vote for United
States senator. as will also Ed Moore,
our candidate for representative Ed
| is a young man, worthy and we'll quail
flied, a hard worker and honest in ev-
cry particular. and you can rest as
sured it is my opinion that both Har-
per and Moore will vote for a United
States senator who will be for protec-
| ton and support heartily all measures
which may come UP in our interests
and behalf. in the coming session of the
state legislature.

MINERS AND MINING.

Fellow Workmen:-We who enter
the bowels Of the earth every morning.
after kissing and bidding adieu our be-
loved ones, think most Of what we
shall do during the day and what ex-
tent our compensation will amount to
at night, when our days work Is done.
How many are there of us who give
our old and celebrated song, Down IN
the Coal Mine Underneath the Ground"
which goes as follows:
What little do the big bugs care, who
sit at home secure.
What hidden dangers coal miners dare,
what hardships they endure?
The very fire their mansions boast to
cheer themselves and wives
Mayhap were kindled at the cost of
jovial coal diggers' lives"
Now Is 1T not fact that we revere
that old song as almost sacred? Why
should we not?
The height of our ambition Is to do
a good days work and then receive a
fair compensation for our toll, and
when we do we are contented.
We do not, as a general rule, mix up
with the political issues of the day, but
at this time it behooves US to look into
the coming election. and see what is
our duty from a political standpoint
ana WHAT is TO our own interests. we
are certainly interested in every single
individual candidate to be elected, and
especially SO in our national and state
legislators-our congressman who vote
on all questions pertaining to the tariff
directly. as do our state senator and
representative Indirectly, inasmuch as
the latter two vote for United States
senator, who in turn has voice or
the tariff.
I mention this fact for the reason
that under the Mckinley bill, prior tt
1894, we had tariff of rs cents a tor
on coal. The democrats howled about
| the tariff of rs cents per ton on coal
and said that the consumers We're pay.
ing rs cents per ton tariff on every tor
Of coal they consumed. At that very
| time coal was being sold on board tn.
cars at the mines at IS cents to 81 pei
ton, and We We're getting from so cent.
to rs cents per ton for digging it. Car
anyone see where Is cents per ton was
| paid for tariff? 1t was only paid alons
the Pacific and Atlantic coasts, wher,
| the foreign coal was being sold.
! In 1894 the Wilson bill was passed
