Wall From a Miner.

Lots of us don’t like it; but you know its three more yeans of Grover, and then the clover will be on top Of us I think. We have over 20,000 miners idle in Illinois, and fourteen companies of the state militia in different places in the state at present That’s democracy sure enough. We had to work before, so you see w« can do without it now and get the soldiers to watch us, as they do over in the old country. We must be English, they say. Don’t you think it’s pretty like it? Twenty cents per ton of a reduction will help to bring us nearer to it And many of our republicans here said it was better overt there than here. They did not expect it to come so soon. All I hope is that they will smother that bill in congress se dead that it will never live again, and all the bourbons and copperheads with it forever. The monster, the southern confederacy, would like to show its slimy head again—that’s my honest opinion. A man’s bread is his life, and when they bargain for my bread I must kick. _ Robt. Bowie. Braidwood, HL, May 29, 1891

The Pottery Strike.

In the settlement of the pottery Strike the wage scale hangs on the degree es protection accorded the industry in the democratic tariff bilL This is a practical illustration of the point which republicans have made and democrats denied, and there can be no wriggling out of it The demncrats will have to take their medicine. The democratic politicians can no longer throw dust in the eyes of the men who earn their living in American potteries. They have learned, if they did not know before, that the tariff has something to do with wages. Some of them understood this thoroughly and did not wait for the democratic par tv and sad experience to teach them the lesson.—The Intelligencer, Wheeling, W. Va.

Wages In Japan.

The Japan Mail, published at Yokohama, is authority for the following, in regard to the wages of mill operatives in Japan, also as to the value of Japanese money and the cost of coal, all of which may throw some light upon the problem of successful industrial competition with the “Yankees of the east”

The daily wages of a factory gird in Iliogo is nine sen, whereas in Tokio it is thirteen sen, and 10,000 pounds of coal, costing from twenty-two to twenty-three yen in the latter city, can be had in the former for from eighteen to nineteen wen. One yen equals a Mexican dollar. One Mexican dollar equals 50 cents United States gold. One sen is one one hundredth part of a yen or one-half cent gold. Nine sen for a girl is equivolent to four and a half cents gold per day. Wages of a girl for one year, or 300 days, sl3. 50 gold, or $27 silver, per year. Coal at nineteen |yen for five tons equals about $1.90 per ton.

In 1892 we had absolute men employed in our business forty-five, and these forty-five remained with us up until October, 1393, whenfbusiness fell down to such an extent that we cut them down to forty. April 1, 1894, yve cut the men down to twenty-three. This gives the standing exactly of the house to-day. In 1892 with a capital of half a million we employed fortyfive hands. The same capital, the close of 1893, could only give employment to forty hands. The same capital in 1894 can only t employ twentythree hands. In addition to this we have been obliged to cut off six branch houses, which, in 1892, yielded good returns; but made a loss in 1893 and the continuance of them in 189-1 would have been ruinous. Comment is unnecessary and the figures stand for themselves. The articles we have manufactured and sold are agricultural implements, every one of which was manufactured in the states of New York, Ohio and Illinois and fitted up and finished here.—Charles H. Dodd, president of Charles H. Dodd & Co., dealers in agricultural implements. hardware and steel, Portland, Ore., April 21, 1894.

Weary Waiting.

The democrats have often told us to “just wait." And We have arrived at a point where that is all we can do—"just wait." All laboc organization* on a strike, the farmer can not sell his wheat, corn, hogs, cattle, poultry nor any of his farm products. The merchant can get' no goods of any kind; business of all kinds is an a standstill. How we do wish the democrats would tell us how long we are to wait and what we are waiting for.— The Bloomfield (Indiana) Nexvs.

The great crop of wheat and oats is now being thrashed in this vicinity., Some specimen items; On the A. McCoy and Walter Porter farms, in Jordan tp., the oats crop amounts to 13,800 bushels. The average yield is 55 bushels to the acre. One field, on Walter’s place, raised by Wm. Essen, averaged 65 bushels. Mike Nagel, southeast of town, has 32 bushels of wheat to the acre, and 50 bushels of oats. The Piper Bros, just northeast of town, raised 31 bushels wheat and 50 of oats to the acre. Their oats crop is 3900 bushels. John L. Nichols, who raises “craps” better than he runs for office, has 50 bushels of oats to the acre. J. T. Payne, also of Barkley, had one large wheat field go 31 and another 33 bushels. It is estimated that the average wheat yield in Barkley will be 25 bushels.

Lest Thursday a man who was going through town with a mover’s wagon and had stopped in town for a short time, in front of Eger’s grocery, caught sight of the strap, attached to a heavy iron weight, with which Mr. Eger anchors his fiery delivery horse, when not in service, and at once took out his knife and coolly cut the strap loose from the weight, and proceeds-?; with it toward his wagon. Someone told Mr. Eger what was happening to his hitch strap, and he came out redheade<LZanJJsy threatening to have him arrested, he made the man go to a harness shop and buy a new strap. It was the general opinion that the taking of the strap was a deliberate piece of small thievery, but more than likely the fellow had never seen such a hitching arrangement and thought it was a lost or thrown away strap, and that he might just as well have it as not.

The joke is on Commissioner Taber. He was over at Wolcott the other day, looking after some gravel roads, he is building there and his partner, Mr. Curtis, handed him bis coat to carry to the hotel. Instead, Mr. Taber took it to a restaurant and “soaked” it for two glasses of lemonade. The coat was hung in the restaurant labeled in large figures, “Due 10 cents.” Pretty soon Taber took some friends in the restaurant to show them Curtis’s coat with its label, and behold 1 Curtis had found out what was up, and had slipped around to the hotel where Taber’s own coat was, and had replaced his own garment with Taber’s, in the restaurant pawn shop, and thus Taber found his own coat bearing the 10 cent label, ginstead of Curtis’. The cigars and lemonade for ths crowd was at Taber’s expense.
