It i a deplorable spectacle to witness coal from West Virginia finding its way to the lake, while the mines between it and the West Virginia Heids are idle. The managers of the railroads are giving a rate to West Virginia shippers which enables them to enter the market at a less price than their own mines.

Thia is for coalgting over a one and one-fourth inch screen ami is the lowest rate ever paid to these miserable workmen. It ia reported that the miners have struck, but the report has not yet leen confirmed

The mine Operator ki.v that the cut was made because other mines were only paying M cents, although all acknowledge that the rate is CO eents.

There La not in this country today a elata of workmen so oppressed as the miners of Pennsylvania. Iietween the power of the mine owners to limit the year's output and their ability to depress wage at will the miserable

workman is naving- all his self-reapect and manliness crushed out. The revelations made last winter and) this spring by legislative committees which investigated the miners condition in Pennsylvania, Ohio and other states were of the most Rooking character. Not only were wages pitifully low. but the men were cheated in the most hameles manner by means of false weights and unfair srreens. The Injustice of the mine owners in arbitrarily limiting the output for the year resulted in the idle

CONSTANTLY SHIFTING. !

laatabllltr f ttf-i.ul.Meaa (otiW Ilona oa ihe Tariff.

Many of our valued republican centrmjoraries are deriving considerable fun from the ehmee in tariff i e,.r,e

now alleged to be going on in the democratic party. They seem to forget that within the last few years a change, almost revolutionary, on the same question took place in the republican party When the McKinley bill passest both houses of congresa end received the. signature of President Harrison all the republicans In the land whooped with glee and rung the praise of William Mc

Kinley until they were hoarse. With a tax on everything used by a human being from the time he was laid In the crib until he waa lowered into six feet of earth the republicans glorified and saw the millennium sticking above the horizon. That was in 190. Two years later the democrats mopped the earth with the republican party. It required several days of shoveling to get the snow off 1 its prostra:e. frozen remain. An A win

sooner did the republican beads appear above drifts than their mouths opened In denunciation of William McKinley and his law. There was not a republican from the Moosehead lake to the Cliff rocks who would cot take oath that hit , party was defeated by the McKinley law and that William McKinley was as dead, politically, as a mackerel. This country, the republicans declared, no longer needed a high protective tariff; ttftW industries were no longer infantil i tobe nursed on the bot tie of protection: :

protection, indeed, was an issue which

would no longer separate the republican and democratic parties. That was in 1S9J and 1S93. Then the panic, which was the natural result of fool economic and financial erstem, struck the country and keeled it over on its beam end. And it la not righting itelf very rapidly yet. With the panic came the republican clamor for a protective tariff for our industries, svhieh in a year had become infants again. As Mr. McKinley w s the greatest living apostle of the protection the-

ory his name was caufrht br the repoba . m .

ncan winn and the first the country knew Mr. McKlnleT was exhumed fern

his political creed and hailed as the new

Moses. IrrcirVn tally the Mr. McKinley

wrho was politically dead a few year ntro is the liveliest man in this country-to-day. Thus we see the grand old republican party shifting its political convictions w ith all th ease and grace of a liffht-ning-chanee artist. And to-day It Is split up the back or the Dinrley b!Tl. Therefore, so far a the republican party is concerned, the north star is more j constant by eeverel points. Chicago

This scramble for the fruits of robbery Is the inevitable consequence of the policy of conferringbencfits upon certain interests or classes of people by legislation. The power of legislation to concentrate the wealth of the people on the favored few by discriminating taxation is so great that vast corruption follow s in the wake of its exercise for that purpose.
