Mine Inspection and Accidents.
According to Ellas Davis, a promi
nent resident of Schuylkill county, the
luws governing the inspection of an
thracite mines are all right as far as
they go, but they do not go far enough.
"What la needed," he says, "is a re
sponsible head to whom the several In
spectors shall report, and who will have
the authority to make them do their
duty thoroughly."
We do not believe that the creation of
a state department of mining would
lead to better results than characterize
the present system. State supervision
through the person of a chief mine in
spector serving by gubernatorial ap
pointment Is an attractive thing in
theory, but in practice the chances are
that it would be like adding a fifth
wheel to a wagon. Most of the present
mine Inspectors In the anthracite
region are capable, fearless and con
scientious men. We do not at this mo
ment think of one who has recently
neglected nny duty or failed In any par
ticular to do his work promptly and
Impartially. These men are not Infalli
ble nor are they gifted with omnis
cience. Accidents are bound to happen
In spite of their watchfulness. They
cannot be In every mine in their espe
cial district all the hours of every day
In the year, and If they were able to
reach such a degree of omnipresence
accidents would continue to occur Just
the same. It Is easy for men sitting in
comfortable chairs at mahogany desks
hundreds of miles away from mine
shafts to theorize concerning what
ought and what ought not to
be done in regulation of the
anthracite Industry, but the sub
ject presents itself in a less ideal as
pect when practical miners who have
passed their lives toiling under
ground and studying subterranean phe
nomena are suddenly caught, as Su
perintendent Langan and his associate
overseers and subordinates were
caught in the Twin shaft, by a casualty
of which all their practical skill had
failed sufficiently to forewarn them.
The idea that any mine Inspector
would have been better qualified to
judge of the risk to life from such an
enterprise as these men were engaged
In than those men themselves were
after having; worked in the mine for
years and years is simply preposter
ous on its face, and those who argue to
this effect show that they do not know
what they are talking about.
Equally absurd is the Idea that the
owners of the Twin shaft were Indif-
ferent to human life. They have not
profited by this accident At the low
est calculation it will cost them thou
sands of dollars, and it may cause the
utter loss of their mine. Does any sen
sible man suppose that either the own-
era of or the workeis In the Twin shaft
would have taken Sunday's frightful
risk if they had adequately foreseen it
or that, not having foreseen it, any
benefit can now come to any Interest by
hounding them because they were less
all-wise? Any sensible man who Is
willing to look at this deplorable oc
currence fairly and rationally must ac
quit the management of this mine from
negligence or indifference. The fact
that the company's Immediate repre
sentatlve was himself numbered among
the victims ought to be sufllcient to
establish that there waa no conscious
lack of any requisite precaution and
that the fall which crushed superln
Undent, foremen and miners alike was
as unexpected to the one as to the
others.
We expected columns of twaddle on
this sad affair from novices In dls
tant cities who make a living by writ
ing what they don't know about cur
rent happenings; but It sounds some'
what stranse to hear experienced men
in the heart of the anthracite region
give utterance to opinions that, when
simmered right down, have no practi
cal meaning and which have the un
wholesome effect to stir up undeserved
and hurtful prejudice.
Some rules refuse to work both ways
McKinley won his nomination by keep
Ing perfectly quiet. But Adlal Steven
son, who has been as mute as a mum
my, doesn't stand the ghost of a show.
"The money of the I'uitcd States,
nud every kind or form of it, whether
of paper, silver or gold, must be as
good ns the best in the world. It must
not ouly be current at its full face
value at home, but it must be counted
ntparin nny and every coinmcrcin
center of the globe. The dollar paid
to the farmer, the wngeTitiuer nnd
the pensioner must continue forever
equal in purchasing and debt-pnting
power to the dollnr pnid to nny gov
erumcnt crcditor.".Ui-kinli'y iu His
Speech of Acceptance.
The question before the house Is Da
vid B. Hill still a Democrat?
Nonsense at Chicago.
There is a good deal of latent ab
surdity In the furious threshing of
words which Is just now in progress be
tween leading gold and silver Demo
crats. For example, Mr. Whitney
charges Mr. Boles with "forsaking the
fundamental principles of the Demo
erotic party," and Mr. Boies replies In
polite language to the practical effect
that Mr. Whitney Ilea. Both gentle
men, and a host of their respective re
talners, are filling the air with loud talk
about something- that does not exist
except In the highly-colored Democrat
ic Imagination, and some of them are
laying up necessities for an abundance
of unpleasant crow-eating later on.
And all to what purpose? We cannot
imagine.
Looking at the subject from a dis
interested and unbiased standpoint, we
can say that a careful study of the so
called fundamentals of Democracy has
failed to disclose to us any reason why
the contemporary followers of that po
litical faith should not take any post
tlon on any public question which ap
pears to commend itself to them as at
tractive or wise. Neither the Demo
cratlc nor the Republican party is a
chartered institution with a rigid con
stitution and Inexorable by-laws. As
conditions change it Is wholly proper
that the views of parties should change
with them, otherwise parties would
cease to have practical value and be
come mere reminiscences. When arty
considerable element In one party docs
not like certain opinions engrafted by
the majority on the party platform. It
can choose for Itself between bolting
the whole platform or subordinating
its few disappointments to Its admira
tion for the remaining principles with
which it Is in thorough accord.
To make practical application of
these remarks, Mr. Whitney has no
more right than Mr. Boies or any other
Democrat to set up as a supreme au
thority on Democratic fundamentals.
He Is not the official Interpreter of his
party's past. Let him go out to Chi
cago like a man and make his fight
ugainst free coinage. If he wins, all
right. If not, he can then decide wheth
er he will wish to remain a Democrat
and vote the Democratic fr-silver
presidential ticket or transfer his suf
frage during the present alignment of
national iiolltks to the Republican or
ganization. This Is a simple, straight
forward and easy way out. Its adop
tion would comport with the dignity oi
sane men much better than meaning
less gabble about something deader
than Jefferson or Jackson.
A good way to show patriotism at this
particular season of the year Is to ex
ercise a little respect for the rights of
others. The man who forgets his
neighbor's comfort In his own civic en
thusiasm has one or two degrees yet
to take In the patriotic fraternity.
Capturing Southern Markets.
A committee of the National associa
tion of Manufacturers is now on its
way to Brazil, Uruguay and the Argen
tine republic, in which countries It
hopes to stimulate a demand for American-made
goods and foster the senti
ment which, thanks to the late Mr.
Blaine, already exists In favor of re
ciprocity. The committee includes
some of the best-known business men
in the United States, and its mission
will be greatly aided by the near pros
pect of a restoration In this country of
the Republican policy, with its special
tress upon advantageous reciprocal
trade agreements.
Just before setting sail from New
York on this useful summer excursion
President Search, who accompanies the
committee, made a speech In which he
presented some interesting statistics.
He showed, for Instance, that all South
America figures In the foreign trade
of the United States to the extent only
of abqut one-third of the total. In
forty years there hus been practically
no change In the relation of our South
American trade to the total of our
foreign commerce. In 1S55 our dealings
with South American countries consti
tuted $39,770,349 out of a total of $476,
718,211 of trade with the entire world
In 1S63 our South American trade
amounted to 112,699,522 out of a total
foreign commerce of ?404,774,S33; In 1873
It was J97.234.4-ia out of $1,010,418,147; in
1S85 it was $92,237,137 out of $1,313,717,084,
and in 1895 our trade with South Ameri
ca was $143,413,331 out or $1,539,308,130.
"As American merchants and mnnu
facturers we count ourselves," said he
' as pretty shrewd traders, and, there
fore, we find everywhere in our deal
ings with the South American countries
one point which troubles us sorely. We
are buying more from those nations
than we are soiling to them. Further
than this, our purchases from them
have been increasing more rapidly than
our sales to those countries have been
growing. In lt-55 our exports to South
America amounted to $12,461,040 and our
Imports were $27,209,309. Last year we
sent to South America $34,042,313 worth
of our merchandise and bought $111
039,406 worth of the products of that
continent. While the United States is
by far the best customer Brazil has,
that country buys move from Great
Britain, France and Germany than
from us. That is not reciprocal trade.
"We can nevtr hope to Increase our
trude in Latin-America to any great
degree," Fresk'ent Search added, "so
long as we work at long range. To es
tablish our trade there we must do as
our competitors have dono so success
fully go down there, stay there, live
among the people with whom we want
to do business, study their want3 nnd be
willing to adn:t ourselves to their re
quirements. Ye need International
banking facilities which will enable us
to settle our trade balances direct with
out dependence upon banks of the com
petlng nations. We need bt Iter trans
portation accommodations between on
seaports and the markets of South
America. The profits of carrying our
goods to foreign markets and conduct
Ing our International financial trans
actions ought to be earned by American
capital. But above these and the many
other obvious needs of our South
American commerce I place the need
of more Intimate knowledge of thos
markets, the people of those countries
and the requirements of their trade.
Such knowledge comes only by personal
observation and investigation."
This explains fully the purpose of the
present voyage of commercial explora-
tlon and discovery. Americans regard'
less of political ties will unanimously
hope that the results of the Inquiry will
redound to the distinct advantage of
American commerce.
Word comes from York state that the
Republican opponents of Thomas C
Piatt Intend to put up a general and
animated fight on that interesting gen
tleman this autumn, the objective point
being the capture of the party organi
zation; but the fight will be kept
strictly within party lines. That Is the
way for good Republicans who diiTer to
settle their differences. This Is no year
for bolters.
Just why some people should be so
Inordinately anxious to see a human be
Ing hanged Is beyond our power of ex
planation. Are men Instinctively like
flies, which appear fairly to enjoy
watching other Hies go through the
death agony?
It begins to look like Bland.
TWIN SORROWS.
Names of some of the men entombed In
the Pltt!ton mine:
M. J. LANGAN, mine superintendent ami
mayor pro tem of Flttston, married,
leaves wifo and ten children; 413
North Main street.
JOHN HART, footman, single.
THOMAS CARDON, ass.BLunt fire bos.s,
mai'iiud, leaves a wife.
JOHN SYLVESTER, married, three chil-
dren.
JOHN AND THOMAS GAFFNEY, broth-
era, former single, latter married,
seven children.
There's a world of puin In the roll of the
men
Who Bleep in the deep-down crave.
Wheie the Death Spritu entered and lin
gered again
Ere the Heavenly stroke of its merciful
pen
Had banished the torture and brightened
the den
Of the hapless, yet the brave.
Ah, yell It lingered and lingered for III
Ere It soothed the Buffering heart;
While its minions of Hunger, of Thirst,
nnd of Chill,
Of Sadness, and Sorrows' disconsolate
thrill.
Now toy with the tollers as Death always
will
When the fiend Is sure of its art.
There's the name of the man who is hus
band to one
Who mourns in thi darkness of duy;
And the list melts to tears as the sentences
run
To the fatherless "daughter" and father
less "son," i
Who weep, though they know not the
cruelty done;
They weep 'tis their mother's way.
But a ray of cheer falls fair on the page
where "single Is placed near a name.
No children or Wedded Ones' grief to as
suage-
But a mother! now broken by ravishing
age;
And a father! the shadow's again on the
page
The "single" has lost its flame.
And the man who Is wedded Is reveling
yet
In the Honeymoon's gentle glow
For him there's a cheek that is fevered
and weft
There's a heart that is crushed he tries to
forget
And wishes to God that they never had
met
Oh, this passage from bliss to woe!
And there In the tomb that Is shrouded in
black
Sleep the dead In their red-run cave.
While the weird sounds of rescue the use
less attack
And the cries of the orphaned and Love
Lost come back;-'
There Is meeting of sorrows and heart's
painful wrack
The mourners and mourned in one grave.

The Scranton Tribune, the best author

between seventy and eighty. Eighty hu
man lives blotted out as In a twinkling

The Tribune well says: "Let those who

look on this piteous picture of its In

In tho whole realm of peaoeful Industry
tna parallel to It can be round."
