A correspondent of the Shenandoah
Herald, writing from Hnzleton under
date of Sept. 4, snys :
The toplo of converntlon here yester
day nnd to day was the meeting of the
operators, and what came of It. Every
body was and Is Interested In the de
cisions to reduce tho wages of the mine
exployes, businessmen as well as work
men feeling that all trades and condi
tions ot llfo would be affected by It.
The men generally borrowed no
trouble over the matter, knowing as
tliay did beforehand that a drop was
inevitable, but they did not anticipate
such a high percentage. All things
considered, however.ln most cases they
made up their minds to nbido by tho
terms of the operators for one month,
and see how the thing would " pan out."
The collieries operated by Coxo &
Hro., Enervate coal company three of
the Hnzleton coal compiny's slopes,
Stockton nnd Mllnesvllle.on tills side of
the hill, with tho Jeanesvllla works, Au
denried, Yorktown and Iloneybrook,
started this mornine, the Mllnesville
men going in at a reduction of thirteen
per cent., and others are likely to fol
low. Mr. Coxe opened tho ball in favor of
fair compensation to tho workmen by
proposing to them that if they want to
work upon the terms agreed toby the
operator's meeting, ho would reduco
the price of powder and nil and all other
miners' supplies, as well ns cut down
the price" of goo-Is In his store, so as to
mako It nn object for them to work.
Tho men acquiesced and agreed, to go to
work. Tho Ebervalo coal company fol
lowed suit, and their men were satlsfl
ed. Mr. Pardee, of tho Hnzleton coal
company, made a similar proposition,
which was accepted by the men.
Messrs. Coxo and Pardeo then notifi
ed the butchers in this and surrounding
localities that they must reduce the price
this the butchers demurred, when the
gentlemen above nameo: Informed tneru
that If thoy did not como down within
a stated time, they themselves would
supply their men with beef at twelve
cents per pound, and ns they are fully
competent to carry out all that they
promlse.lt will be likely that the mining
population of this cual Geld will hereaf
ter be supplied with one of tho most
necessary adjuncts, to tho mid-day
meal at a reasonable price. So you see
It Is " an ill wind that blows nobody
good."
The Scranton Republican snys a
fall of two cents per pound in tho pricn
of meat during the past week Is one of
tho features of the family market.
What are the Lehlghton butohers about,
nro they going to let Scranton lead
them lu reform.

It Is a source of Just pride to Penn
sylvanlnns thnt tho great evsnt, so
happily commemorated by the Inter

the historic period which followed It so

will he the one hundredth anniversary
of tho signing of our first State ConUI

province. Eleven dnys nfter the Dec
laration of Independence was promul
gated, the representatives of the pcoplo
convened In this city, and, under tho
presidency of Benjamin Franklin, un
dertook the formation of n now govern
ment. They completed their labors on
the S8tli diy of September, 1770, by
adopting a Constitution which abolish,
ed all proprietary authority, asserted
the sovereignty of the peoplo, and sol
emnly dedicated our State to Freedom
and Independence.
