AS MINE OPEKATOHS SEE IT
While the miners of the block coal field are enjoying fairly good work at present, much better than in the other sections of the state, and of the Middle States, there is still room for improvement. A prominent operator, in conversation with a Times reporter, this morning, remarked: “Maybe you do not know it. but it is none the less a fact that money is hard to get hold of. and that the operators of this section could mine and sell a great deal more coal if it were possible to get pay for it within the prescribed and regular time. But the big users of coal, or at least a large number of them, have plenty of orders ahead and are anxious to operate their plants as near their capacities as possible, but they cannot get hold of the money to pay their bills when they come due. The operators cannot afford to carry these people four or five months and pay their bills in cash, hence much of the natural production is cut off. I do not know just how this tiling can be remedied hut it docs look as though something should be done.”—Brazil Times.

iff bill It Is only necessary to say that Mr. Bryan cast his vote for the Wilson tariff bill in 1.89! late in the long session of Congress that year, and several months after Coxey’s army had marched with a ‘‘petition in boots” to Washington City; and that Mr. Bryan was elected to Congress In a district that was some 5,000 Republican, because under Harrison the farmers of Nebraska had been burning corn for fuel and the coal miners of Pennsylvania had been shot down
sumption of the responsibility notwithstanding. To turn tall ncxw and begin a housecleaning In the middle of the campaign will be profitless. Nothing as to Mr. DuPont or Mr. Sheldon or Mr. Penrose has been brought to light since their selection for important positions in the organization of the fighting force of the Republican party. Mr. Taft, Mr. Hitchcock and President Roosevelt knew as much about each of them six months ago as they know today, or will know tomorrow'. Their selection reflected the same spirit that resulted in the nomination of “Sunny Jim” Sherman for the vice presidency upon a ticket proclaiming a monopoly in virtue and a policy of reform. Mr. Taft and Mr. Hitchcock and President Roosevelt made their lied and selected their bed-fellows. Panic-strieken as a result of the popular protest against reform parading cheek by jowl with the “undesirables,” they would like to be between cleaner sheets, but a change at the present time can serve only to call more general attention to the Insincerity of reformers who have failed during several years of noisy pretensions of sinlessness t<T cut loose from the Interests and influences they are fond of denouncing.—Courier Journal.

Mr. Aldrich is related to Standard Oil by ties of blood-money and marriage. He is the father of John D. Rockefeller’s daughter-in-law. With this relationship no fault could he found—since young people will get married regardless of political consideraf 'ns—but there is much fault to fin ' with a chairman of the Senate Crinmittee on Finance who is notoriously the representative of Standard Oil and other trusts in thn upper branch of Congress. Whether or not his advocacy of the measures indorsed by the Oil Trust and other trusts therewith allied proceeds from conviction and is pure matters not at all. Like Mr. Cannon, who runs the

GOMPER'S POSITION’IS DEFENDED
On last Thursday the Buffalo Republic, one of the leading daily labor papers of the country devotes its entire space to a consideration of the political situation. This paper has been taking a straw vote of the labor organizations over the country, and finds that almost unanimously these organizations will stand for the Democratic parly and will vote as Gompers suggests. Editorially the
paper says:
“The Republican is not a Democratic paper. It is not a Republican paper, and It is not an Independence
party paper.
“it has no more interest In the Democratic party than it has in the Republican party; no more in Democratic politicians and officeseekers than in Republican politicians and
officeseekers.
“The rank and file of both parties is made up of decent, patriotic citizens, and it is only when the Cannons, the Aldriches, the Jim Shermans.

a job? How can they hope to scare a man by threatening him with the loss of his Job, when he has none? Notwitstanding tills fact they are asking manufacturers of the country to post “placards” promising steady work and good pay if Taft is elected. David M. Parry the former president of the Manufacturers National Association, and a leading Republican, refuses to be a party to the plot in a letter to Hon. John W. Kern, August 29 he says: “To disabuse your mind at once of any doubt as to where I stand on this matter, f will say that no such placard will be posted at the plant of the Parry Manufacturing Company. I think it impossible to fix a date for the return of prosperity. Of course ill considered legislation and the continued existence of public evils will obstruct the path to prosperity and perhaps,

Monday night a crowd that filled the available space of the temporary school room In the Mason's Hall at Fillmore gathered to hear a discussoin of the Democratic attitude on the questions before the people. The speaker discussed in detail the recent panic and its hearing on such questions as the tariff, currency reform and the power of the people to rule. He declared that the Democrats had no intention of repealing the county option law just passed. On the contrary they would await with interest the results of its operation, hoping in the meantime that they were mistaken as to inability to solve the problem, especially in this county.
