TiiEe Coinage Committee of the
House made a report on yesterday week
recommending the passage of the bill
for the redemption of the trade dollars.
The bill provides that for six months
after its passage trade dollars shall be
received at their face value in payment
of all dues to the United States, and I
shall not be again paid out or issued in I
any other manner. Holders of the trade
dollars, on presentation of the same,
may receive in exchange therefor an
equal amount of standard silrer dollars,
and the trade dollars so received shall
be transmitted to the coinage mints and
recoined into standard silver dollars.
The report says that the amount which
would be presented for redemption
would not greatly exceed ten and a-half
millions out of a total coinage of nearly
thirty-six millions. It is thought that
the amount now in this country is about
seven millions, and that no very great
amount of that which has been exported
to China would ever bo returned to the
United States.. It is to be hoped that
this Congress will not adjourn like
others before have done, without taking
final action to ennable the people who
hold trade dollars to get rid of them
without incurring any loss. If this bill
passes that result will be attained.

The Congressional Investigating La
bor Committee, of which ex-Governor
Curtin is chairman, went to St. Louis,
last week and on Saturday addressed a
letter to the Executive Board of the
Knights of Labor regarding the serious
losses to the commercial, agricultural
and other interests of the entire coun
try that have resulted from the labor
troubles on the railroads in the South
west, and earnestly requesting them
through the proper official channels to
discontinue the strike on the railroads
referred to. Mr. Hayes, ou behalf of
the Knights of Labor Executive Com
mittee acceded to th6 request and de
clared the strike at an end, to take ef
fect on last Tuesday morning. Only a
portion of the strikers will be taken
back by the railroads, the piaces of a
large number of them having been filled
by other employes. This strike, which
led to other strikes all over the country
was entirely uncalled for as well as un
authorized, as Mr. Powderly himself
has publicly declared, and has. of course,
entailed an enormous loss upon the men
who started it as well as upon the rail
roads of Missouri. Kansas, Arkansas
and Texas.
that John E. Dubois shall pay all debts
and fill all contracts that his uncle may
make till the day of his death.
His purpose in making the deed was
to make sure that his business should
go on in single and absolute ownership,
just as he had conducted it for the pe
riod of twenty years, after his death,
and that the 800 workmen in his employ
should not be distressed by the stoppage
or embarrassment of his enterprise.
The deed makes no mention of any of
the other heirs, of whom there are a
great many, John Dubois being the only
bachelor in a family of fourteen. It is
left entirely to the conscience of John
E. Dubois whether any or tnem snau
ever have ary share in the estate or not.
The young man is about twenty-five
years old and unmarried. He was edu
cated at Chester Military Academy.
The Pittsburg Dutpatrh says that John
Dubois stood easily at the bead of the
lumber business of Pennsylvania. It is
doubtful if there is any man between
Maine and Michigan who owned more
timber land and cut more timber than
he did. Every year he cut and sawed
aoout 36,000,000 feet of boards, enough
to build the dwelling houses of a town
of 10,000 inhabitants. He owned at
the time of his death 33,000 acres of
land in one connected body about his
towa of Dubois, on wnicn mere i
standing about 350,000,000 feet of white
pine lumber, besides many million feet
of hemlock. About 8,000 acres of it is
underlaid with a valuable vein of coal,
beiug on the western side of the Rey
noldsville basin.
Besides his large bnllding3 in Pitts
burgh, John Dubois had a one-fourth
interest ic a tract of 70,000 acres in
West Virginia, which the axe has never
touched, and large real estate interests
In Havre de Grace and Williamsport.
At Dubois, where he has lately lived.
he owned mill immovemeuts worth
S750.000.
twelve years ago, there were only tnree
houses in the town. Il now has 7,000
population.
John Dubois began life with almost
no capital, and was a raftsman on the
Susquehanna at the age of 17. Ills in
ventive genius helped him greatly. His
mills are full of his devices. Whenever
he found an impediment in his path, he
invented something to overcome it. He
recently recovered S30.000 from the Bal
timere and Ohio Railroad Company for
the use of his patent for deep-water
foundations. The automatic dam which
bears his name is well known. He
owned about fifty patents altogether,
lie owned the fine hotel and about half
the property in the town of Dubois,
and had just completed a new opera
house, the finest in the State outside of
Philadelphia and Pittsburgh.
He got the first large start in his for
tune by investing in cheap timber lands,
and the secret of his large profits in re
cent years has been the perfection of
his machinery and the variety of his
products, which enabled him to use up
all the timber he cut and avoid waste
and middlemen's profits. He manufac
tured houses, and shipped them all fitted
and complete, so that a hatchet and
nails were all that were required to put
them together at their destination.
A rougb pine log brought from the
woods to his mill, over his own line of
railroad, came out at the end of the
works in the shape of boxes, boards,
lath, and barrel heads. Every scrap
was turned to profit. There was no
waste except splinters and sawdust.
His works at Dubois have a capacity
of S5,oo0 feet of lumber, 0.000 boxes,
5,000 barrel heads, and 00,000 shingles
per day, besides a hemlock mill with a
a capacity of 40,000 feet daily, and a
large tannery and machine shop. He
had a farm of 1,003 acres, employed S00
men, and knew every one of them. He
had been seriously ill for several
months, and recently had Dr. Agnew,
of Philadelphia, taken up to Dubois on
a special train. He stayed just thirty
five minutes. Though a man of warm
heart and genial disposition, Mr. Du
bois never married. He never used
liquor or tobacco.
Various labor organizations have for
some time been considering the idea of
making a general effort on the first of
May to reduce the day's work to eight
hours. Several months ago the co-operation
of the Knights of Labor was
sought, but refused, the officers of that
order taking the sensible ground that a
general reduction of the hours of labor
to eight would involve a proportionate
reduction of wages. Moreover, even if
such a movement could expect general
success under favorable circumstances,
it was evident that it would be impru
dent to begin on such short notice and
with so little preparation. The request
for eight hours m'ght, of course, be
granted, or a compromise entered into
by emplovers in trades where business
happens to be exceptionally brisk, but
the expectation of a general compliance
was pretty sure to be disappointed.
The Central Labor Union of this town
and its local assemblies in other cities
have been active in the matter, but each
trade represented in the union has been
free to act upon its own responsibility
and for its individual advantage. In
stead of a combined movement for eight
hours, a combined movement for shorter
hours has been set on foot, or is to be.
Thus, the United Iron Workers want
nine nours, ine uaisern oumc iru iuu
some twelve, and some of the tailors
eight to ten. But the United Pianoma
kers have already demanded eight hours
and the furniture makers baye notified
their employers of a similar demand,
while other trades are expected to do
the same.
The result may in some cases be a
compromise, but among people In the
trades affected there seems to be a belief
that a strike of considerable magnitude
in imminent. In some respects the time
is unfortunately chosen for a strike,
the dull season already having set
In, but the periods of depression when
a ceneral decline in wages Is inevitable.
everything else having declined, are in
variably chosen for strikes, lockouts,
and general contests of the sort.
With certain limits the movement for
shorter hours attracts sympathy, but
the question will not be settled by sym
pathy, but by the harder rules of prac
tical business. That ten hours' pay
will be given for eight hours' work is
net seriously to be expected at present.
The sensible solution of the question
is to pav, noc by the day but by the
hour. X. Y. Sun, Apr. 29.

We wisn to enter our protest against
the manner in which the recent appear
ances and speeches of Mr. Jefferson
Davis have been received ty a large por
tion of the Northern press.
Our esteemed contemporaries seem to
forget that this is a free country, and
that Mr. Davis is no longer subject to ar
rest or trial, but enjoys the most perfect
right to express freely and fully his ideas
and emotions on all public questions,
both of the present and of the past.
Whatever he may say is open to be crit
icised and controverted. Other reason
ing may be opposed to his. Other views
maybe advocated, and other sentiments
may be preferred; but at the same time
he is entitled to a Learing, and all the
more to a patient, respectful, and atten
tive hearing, because of his defeat and
the overthrow of his cause. What he
says s sure to be worthy of considera
tion ; and the proper answer to be made
to it is the answer of reasoning, and not
the answer of passion or prejudice.
For our own part, we hail with pro
found satisfaction the fact that Mr.
Davis, the leader of the defeated in the
greatest of civil wars, not only remains
in his native land and among his own
people, who followed him with unexam
pled enthusiasm and devotion through
out that mighty struggle, but that he
remains unharmed, enjoying his prop
erty and friends, protected bv the laws,
free to go and come as he pleases, and
to speak wherever men are willing to
hear him. It seems to us that if there
is anything sublime in his recent history
it is the fact that no veugeance has been
taken by the victorious people of the
United States upon the less fortunate
people of the South, nor any prohibitions
imposed upon them debating the issues
of the great contest not only as a mat
ter of history and philosophy, but also
as a matter of sentiment and feeling.
As there was never another civil contest
that equalled this one in its magnitude,
its sacrifices and its heroism, not only
on one side, but on both, so there nev
er was any other Lost Cause where the
losers were held free from all vengeful
retaliation after it was over, and the
victory determined.
We trust Mr. Davis may long and en
joy the affection and respect of his fel
low citizens. We hold that be and
they and not ha more than they com
mitted an enormous mistake; but we nev
ertheless respect profoundly the purity
of his charicter, the spotless record of
his personal history, and the ability and
sincerity which he applied, and still
applies, to his work. N. Y. Sun.
John Marshall, F. R. S., says that If a

reason for this needs no explanation. lie

Bad breath arises from the stomach, and
can be easily corrected if you will take Sim
mons Liver Regulator. It Is peculiarly
adapted to the stomach, correcting acidity,
destroying foul gases and allaying inflam
mation. Take, after eating, a half-table
spoonful. It assimilates with the food and
insures perfect digestion, without which
that repulsive disorder, bad breath must en
sue. The Regulator removes biliouness,
cures dyspepsia, constipation and sick-headache,
is purely vegetable and harmless.
