Mine Strike Not Inevitable.

The existing contracts between the
bituminous mine operators and their
employees do not expire until April 1.
They have two months yet in which
to settle hteir differences in respect
to the wage scale for the ensuing
year. 1t is hard to believe that enough
intelligent self-interest and regard for
the rights of the public will not, dur
ing this time, assert itself on both
sides to avert a strike. Each side
it is true, says it thinks a breach is in
evitable, but it may be each is trying
to bluff" the other one into offering
more favorable terms. Miners and
operators have succeeded in the past
in adjusting differences which, while
negotiations were pending, they had
agreed in calling "irreconcilable," and
there does not appear to be any ade-
uate reason why they should not do
SO now. 1t is not probable that either
side would gain anything by a strike.
The chances are that each would lose
heavily regardless of who was finally
victorious. The miners have voted to
raise their strike fund to $4,000, 900.
This gives some idea of how much
they expect the struggle to cost them
if it comes. Large as the proposed
fund will be, in case of a long contest
it will be exhausted and many thous-
ands of miners and their families will
be reduced to want and w~retchedness.
The cost to the operators will be pro-
portionately great. The suspension of
their business and the accompanying
deterioration and destruction of their
property will lose them profits which
it will take them years to recover, and
which they never will O unless
they do it at the expense of the long
suffering Whatever the re-
suits of the strike to the contestants
the public would be sure to suffer
keenly from it.

A Suggestive Precedent.

Ten years ago this winter Grover
Cleveland sen a message in to Cong
ress on Venezula just as Theodore
Roosevelt has now sent a message
and a treaty in TO Congress on Santo
Domingo. 1t was received simultan-
eously in both Houses. In the House
Representative Crisp, Democrat OF
Georgia, called it before the House as
containing a frank, honest and man
ly p of the Monroe doctrine,'
and Representative Hit, Republican,
of Illinois, introduced a bill appropri-
ating 500, 900 to carry out the Presi-
dents views. In the Senate party
lines were similarly ignored. On the
Democratic side VOORHEES, and Villas
spoke o fthe message as Splendid
lone of our ablest state papers," etc,
and on the Republican side Chandler
pronounced it broad and courag-
eous,' Frye as delighted with its gen
uine American tone" and Plat OF
Connecticut said that in a question
of foreign relations affecting our ma
tional honor there was not in the
Senate, and should not be, any divi-
sion of parties. We commend this
precedent, and especially Senator
Platt's example, to those Democrats
in the Senate who are seeking to en-
barrass the administration in its diff
cult and delicate responsibilities in

Electricity and Steam.

Two railroads in Colorado have de-
cided to change their motive power
from steam to electricity, this step
having suggested itself long ago to
engineers and even casual observers.
In mountain regions nature has its
own effective way of lifting water to
high levels and storing it there to
feed the streams. Raised by evapor-
alton, and condensed to go down by
gravity, the watery elements are al
ways in motion land ready to furnish
the cheapest power known. Work is
about to begin in installing electric
power on the Pacific coast branches
of the Canadian Pacific railway. A
paper published in the state of Wash
ington says a similar Transformation
will soon take place there, for every
railroad going through the Cascade
mountains is within sight and easy
reach of water powers OF enormous
magnitude. From every gorge and
canyon mountain torrents pour down.
ready to be harnessed, and in that
climate they are not ice-locked in
winter. Electricity generated by water
is now the motive power on the ur-
ban and interurban car systems of
western Washington land has proved
to be an important economic advance.

A Negro Potato King.

The potato king of the South, if not
of the nation and world, is a negro,
Mr.. Groves, whose farm, the writer
thinks, is in Alabama. Booker T..
Washington says that last year this
negro produced upon his farm, 1880
bushels OF white potatoes, averaging
245 bushels to the acre So far reports
show this was 1850 bushels more
than any other individual grow
er in the world produced. And besides
potatoes raised on his own farm, Mr..
Groves buys and ships potatoes on a
large scale. Last year he bought
from white growers in the Kaw val
ley and shipped away twenty-five car
loads of white potatoes. He also
bought fourteen cars of sandy seed
potatoes in North and South Dakota,
which he sold to growers in the Raw
valley, and in Oklahoma and the In
dian territory. Mr.. Groves says that
he ships potatoes and other farm
products to nearly every portion of
the United States, and to Mexico and
Canada.
AT a recent meeting of the Nation
al Negro Business league in New
York, Mr.. Groves was asked how he
was able to conduct so varied and
large a business enterprise when he
had no education as a business man.
You have children, haven't your
Mr.. Groves replied.
"Yes," said the other. Some of
them are grown up now"
"How do you manage your grown
| up children?"
"Oh, l get along with them," re-
piled his friend, Laughing. "You see,
have known them a long time"
That's just the way with my bust
ness" said Mr.. Groves. 81 started in
with it when it was a baby, and I've
had a chance to get thoroughly ac-
quainted with it as it grew up"

Removal of Postmasters.

5. G. Birdseye, the Inspector who
was sent into the Eighth Indiana dis
trict to investigate charges filed
against twenty-five or thirty men in
the postal service, has recommended
the following removals: Robert
Grimes, postmaster of Anderson; Lon
Hutchings, postmaster of Winchester.
and Marshall F. Asty, postmaster of
Geneva.
Along with these positive recon-
mendations the Inspector has submit
ter reports criticising various postal
employees and putting it up to the
postmaster general to draw his own
conclusions as to what should be
done. These postmasters seem TO
have considered it their duty to die
tate the political management of their
localities instead Of attending to their
official duties.

Othello at the Opera House.

William Owen, who plays Othello
at the opera house next Wednesday
evening has done more than any one
mar now on the American stage to
combat the tendency toward cheap
and trashy productions, and in the
absence of worthy, modern plays, has
continued to offer Shakespeare, when
almost every other manager has
yielded to the popular demand for
trivial plays thrown together to catch
the nimble dollar. In Iago Mr.. Owens
is seen at his best. He conceives the
part as one who revels in his own in
ventions, and is swept away with the
success of his scheming until he in
wolves all alike in ruin. ]. w. Nc

MI. Christian Manual and wife
were surprised at their home We'd
nesday. Their sons and daughters
and relatives to the number of 35
were present and presented them
with a very valuable chair, the oc-
casion being Mr. Manuals 6Sth birth
day. A most excellent dinner was
served, consisting of everything i'm
aginable and the company returned to
their homes wishing MI. Manual
many more happy birthdays.
William Mitchell, a convict in the
prison north, was instantly killed
while working in a large oven being
erected in the dining hall of the insti-
tuition. Mitchell's death was the re-
suit of his own carelessness, his life
being literally crushed out. He had
crawled into the oven to remove a
wooden arch and as the arch was dis
placed the entire oven caved in upon
him. Mitchell was serving his fifth
prison sentence. He was last SEM up
from Anderson.

international Marriages.

Another American girl has come 10
the unhappy end of the road of an
ill-advised foreign marriage. As the
daughter of her father, Anna Gould
has little claim upon the sympathies
of her countrymen and countrywom-
en-, but many will regret the shadow
of grief that must fall on the noble
woman, her sister, who has done so
much to win respect and affection
for the family lame. The Castellane-
Gould catastrophe recalls the melan-
choly story of Nellie Grant, the ro-
nance of Jerome Bonaparte and Eliz-
abeth Patterson, the marriage of Mat
tie Mitchell to the duke of Rochefou-
cauld, and other family experiences
that have helped to make history.
There is a temptation to rail at these
curious love affairs, or perhaps we
should call them financial; but some
have not been unhappy. No one has
CNCl HCdlQ LdQy N~dIIdCuZeHG COll-
plain, or Mary Letter, Lady Curzon,
C~onsuelo, duchess of Marlborough,
Helene Zimmerman, duchess of
Manchester, or the handsome Amer
lean wife of the German general that
died five years ago in China. Let us
simply say that marital nobility or
wifely honor is not a question of race,
language or sovereignty; for love,
like music, is a universal language,
and laughs at boundary lines no less
than, as in the days of the Danae, at
locksmiths. Even the passions of the
civil wal could not restrain the
daughters of the sunny south from
giving their hearts to boys in blue. A
man may make a good husband, even
even though he speaks French and
a baronical castle and brings
the children of his American wife the
highest title nobility can boast.-In-
dianapolis Star.

Praise for Ohio Legislature.

Warrne J.. Lynch, passenger traffic
manager of the New York Central
lines, has unconsciously paid the Ohio
Legislature a very great compliment
Mr.. Lynch went to Columbus: O., to
protest against the passage of a 2
cent fare bill, but he me. with a chilly
a game in my life," he declared in a
sort of dazed way when he returned
to Chicago. The Ohio House is GER
tainly crazy from the front to the
back door and they have got the bit
in their teeth and are running away.
The funny part of it is that every one
of the members is strictly honest. If
you were to give the poorest n of
them $1OO.O 600 the first thing he would
do would be to expose you on the
floor Of the House" If the "crazi-
ness" Of the Ohio legislators consists
in their refusal to submit to evil in
uences of those who are seeking to
effect legislation inimical to the peo-
pies welfare-such as Mr.. Lynch in
timates-they are to be heartily com
mended. We need more of this "craz-
mess" and we are getting it from the
legislatures all over the country. 1t is
a new experience to many of these
professional lobbyists to be turned
down cold and to find even their dis
play of generous rolls unavailing. The
leaven or reform is working in many
States and the outlook is encourag-
ing. 1t is the Rooseveltian theory
being put into general practice, and
misguided is the man who thinks it
is but a temporary eruption hat will
soon pass over. incidentally it might
be interesting to know how Mr.. Lyn-
CHI knows that the poorest member of
the Ohio House would refuse a $780,
900 bride.

Roots View of Caucus.

Secretary Root when asked his
opinion of the action of the Demo
cratic senatorial caucus on the Dom
inican treaty, resulting in a pledge oil
united Democratic votes adverse to
that treaty, said: Il regard the action
of the caucus as establishing a con
elusive presumption that the treaty
has received the approval of more
than two-thirds of the Senate, else
why was the caucus called? 1t is true
that the treaty may not receive the
constitutional two-thirds of the votes
necessary to give it effect, but if sc
that would be the direct result of the
caucus action"

A Biz Rain.

Late news from Z m tell OF a ty-
phoon in which THIRTY n inches OF
rain fell within twenty-l Z hours. 1t
requires consideration to innate the
amount of water represente oy these
figures. Thirty-one inches of rain
fall means nineteen and a half gallons
to the square foot, five and a half bar
rels to the square yard, or 166 barrels
to the square rod. A city lot 25x15o
would be ,deluged by $500 barrels OF
water. At that rate, enough water
would fall on an area of five miles
square to fill the channel of a river,
twelve rods wide, ten feet deep, and
IT'S miles long.
