COAL COMPANIES ANSWER.
Blame Government for Advance in
Price of Fuel.


Philadelphia. Aug Sl.-Putting the re-
sponsibility up TO the government, the
three Reading coal companies filed an
swers TO the Federal suits in the United
States Circuit Court to-day.
It is asserted in the answers that the
agreement TO advance the price Of coal
in 1900 was directly due TO the failure OF
the United States government and the
State OF Pennsylvania to enforce the. law
and protect the commercial companies
during the coal miners strike
The agreement il is alleged, also was
due TO the opportunities of the late Mar
Gus A. Hanna, who. il is said was anx-
iOus = end the strike on account of the
pending Presidential election. The an
swers set forth that the companies were
forced to make contracts with the op-
orators.

NO CHANCE FOR SUBSIDY.

1t now seems certain that a subsidy
for American steamships, which few
months ago promised to be one large
measure of positive legislation to go
on the statute book at this session,
stands no chance of enactment. Two
newly developed facts have so
strengthened its opponents in congress
as in all probability to place the bill
at their mercy in the short remaining
time before adjournment. The more
recently discerned fact Is monopoly
control by the Hartman combine over
great steamship lines both in the At
lantic and in the Pacific which would
come in for big share of the govern
ment aid on a tonnage subsidy basis,
which was the basis originally pro-
posed. Such disclosures of the in
vestigation now in progress, 1t is en-
tirely credible, tend to ALLEVIATE many
who might have supported a broad
subsidy policy.
Furthermore, 1t had just previously
been established that the number of
steamships between ports of the
United States and South America is
more nearly adequate than had gen.
orally been supposed and that the
number is likely to increase as the
freight increases. But the proposition
to substitute for a tonnage subsidy
the plan of bonus for mail carrying
service, with a view to more intimate
communication with the southern
countries. at once offended the strong
est positive force in favor of subsi-
dies. the same being the ship building
and allied interests, which would pre-
fer no measure at all
At best, 1t would have required
united support, reinforced by the
strongest administration pressure, tc
secure enactment of a moderate shiT
subsidy measure at this session, but
the progress of events has been such
as to discourage rather than promote
/ success, in all probability postponine
the whole subject to the indefinite
| future.

PAY FTRsT-sUE AFTERWARDs.


The proposition fathered in the Ne
braska legislature by Representative
Lee to engraft in the law relating to
revenue and taxation the doctrine of
PAY f1rst-sue afterward," proceeds
on the right track. Two of the big
railroad corporations with large mile
age extending through nearly every
county in the state have for three sue
cessive years refused to pay their taxes
and gone into court to enjoin their
collection. The railroad tax shirkers
want the privilege of cutting down the
taxes levied on their property 20 to
80 per cent, while other people are
compelled to pay what the authorities
ask of them promptly and without dis
count, subject to all the penalties of
delinquency.
It Is true the railroads have gone
into the federal courts as nonresident
corporations with reference to all
counties in which the amounts in dis
pute are over the $4,000 necessary to
give federal jurisdiction and that they
have not had the nerve to go into the
state courts in the counties in which
the amounts in dispute are less than
$4,000. It is not conclusive, either,
that any rule the state may lay down
would be binding upon the federal
courts now or in the future, but the
practice of the federal judiciary has
almost invariably been to follow the
precedents set by state laws and state
tests in such cases. If the railroads,
and all other taxpayers for that mat
ter, were barred from enjoining col
lection of their taxes and required to
pay them in first before maintaining
suit to test their validity, they would
have trouble in getting any federal
court to come to their relief on pre-
tense that they were being deprived
of their property without due process
OF law, while refusing to take advan-
tage OF the privilege offered them to
recover back any money Illegally ex-
acted.
The PAY flrst-sue afterward" rule
has been proposed in Wisconsin and in
California, both of which states have
had more or less trouble collecting
railroad taxes resisted by the roads
on the same specious pretexts put for
ward In Nebraska. II our legislature
will take action along this line 1t will
probably set the pace for other states
whenever similarly afflicted.

Richest Nation on Earth.
Mnr.r Xn.rhr Sim

Ten years ago our yearly production Of
coal was 100000 tons, and we thought IL
a heap. Last year we mined 100000 tons
In 1896 we produced 900 tons of pig
iron. Last year we produced 100000 tons.
Our copper output Of ten years ago 240, 0O0-
900 pounds 1t is now, 800 100000 pounds. In
1895 we dragged from the bowels of the
earth minerals and mineral substances worth
about $50, 1900. The value of our mineral
product in 1906 approximates 5000, 200.
These figures are bewildering in their i'm
mensity. 1t is no wonder that we are the
richest nation on earth. Yet in spite of 1t
and there is something left to hope for and
there may be something left to fear.

this paper that he believed that Mrs. Lille
was either guilty or that she knew who
committed the crime. he places himself
above the courts and the jury and pardons
the woman who was convicted less than
four years ago of this terrible crime, as
his last official act. BY his act Governor
Mickey has placed a premium on murder.
David City Journal Mrs. Lena Lille was
pardoned by Governor Mickey at 70 o'clock
January g. 1897. This was the last official
act before he retired from office and II
was on par with many other things he did
while in Office that ne should not have done.
In pardoning Mrs Lille he put his wonder
full knowledge CD against that of brainy
judges. Jurors and the supreme court. What
is to become of law and criminals when
a governor sees fit to let them go free as
Mickey has done since he has been In
office His record Of pardoning criminals
is beyond the comprehension of all honest
citizens and he has been bitterly criticised
for this last act The citizens of Butler
county feel justly outraged at John II.

of the immense burden of deadhead-
ism, may not carry passengers under
a 2-cent limit at an even greater net
profit than heretofore in the two tiers
of states west of the Mississippi river
as well as in those east of it.
But public sentiment imperiously
demands that the free pass abuse shall
go, root and branch, and no legisla-
ture can without recreancy in obvious
duty fail to enact the necessary laws,
thus establishing the condition calling
for limitation of passenger charges.
The lack of such limitation would be
in effect a vast continuing bonus to
the carrier corporations for abolishing
the old free pass abuse.

The new organization of the county
board promises a continuance of the
business-like administration inaugu-
rated when the management of county
affairs was restored to republican con-
troll two years ago. All the members
of the board are henceforth to be mem
bers of every committee, a move quite
feasible where the number is so small
and conducive to keeping the whole
board in touch with every part of the
work. The effect of the new deal
ought to be seen in a material reduc-
ton of the county tax rate for the next
year.
