Enterprise lloso company met In regu lar session Friday evening. Among othor business transacted, a commltteo was ap pointed to mako arrangements for the at tendanco of the company'at the state fire men's convonllon to be held in Wllkes Barro next October. The members of the committee are Jame3 A. Brown, L. J. Wells, W. II. Wlldenbcrger. Howard P Johns, Geo! go E. Maxey and Thomas Brown, Jr. The committee has nlreaaj appointed H. P. Johns to ut onco btcure quarters at Wilkcs-Barre and has bar gained with Michael Kratitz to convoy the hose wagon to that place the day be fore the convention. A committee was appointed to meet with tho boiouKh coun. ell and ascertain whither or not they would be willing to provide suitable quar ters for a team In case one was purchase.!, and If they would employ the team Jn do ing Buch borough work as required the use of horses. The company's hose cart Is very heavy and therefore inconvenient and somewhat slow. With the aid ot a team the new wagon could bo used, en ablins the firemen to reach the scene of action much quicker and with n less ex penditure of stiength. It Is altogether probable the council will favor tho com pany, as they have always nlUed and en eouruRcd the Knterprlso boy3 in a man ner that has been generally commended and that Is much to their credit. At pres. ent the council Is about to secure a fifty toot extension, ladder for the use of tha company.

The activity and prosperity of tho miner primarily depend upon the ac tivity and prosperity ot tho manufac turer, since machinery Is moved by steam in the; production of which coal must bo consumed. Whatever Increases tho number of mills and gives employ ment to mill hands Increases work for tho miner, but whatever reduces the number of mills in operation shortens the number of hours- or diminishes tho number of operatives, Is as much against tho intersts of the miner as it Is against the Interests of the mechanic. The suspension or reduction of work in factories, business establishments of various kinds and Industries of all sorts In all parts of the country resulting from the operations ot the Wilson law caused a great reduction in the demand for coal and combined with the depress ing effect of lmportationsto still further reduce the demand for the labor of the miners and the prices paid for their services. While the amount of coal ac tually Imported Is only about four mil lion tons a year or sufficient to throw out of employment about eight thou sand miners, the loss In markets to American mines by the suspension of manufacturing was much greater. DEMOCRATS ALARMED. Tho present strike of the coal miners is looked upon with great alarm 'by Democratlo leaders here. It calls at tention directly and pointedly to tho fact that their legislation Is beyond question responsible for the reductions of wages, all of which, according to President Ratchford, have occurred since the Inception ot that legislation. Not only Is the Democratic party re sponsible for the reduction of 35 cents per ton which caused this reduction in wages, but many of th men most prominent fn its councils and as its lenders urged and even demanded a removal of the entire duty on coal, placing it absolutely upon the free list, which would have doubtless still further reduced the Wages of miners. William J. Bryan, whose name and theories are to be especially prominent In the approaching state campalgn.was one of the most earnest nnd active members of the wing of his party which demanded the removal of the entire duty on coal, saying, in a speech In congress, January 13, 1S94: "The duty on coal Is indefensible. The duty on coal Is nothing but a subsidy, which the people along the sea-coast nre compelled to pay to the transpor tation companies. Take tho tariff off from coal, so that the New England manufacturers can buy It for less and they can manufacture more cheaply, and then by cutting down the tariff on the products of their factories, we can compel them to sell nta low or price to tho people of the south and west." INDUSTRIAL NEWS. Tho fuel (or fancy) that. Junius Plct punt Morgan Mill shortly assume the real management of tho Lehigh Valley rail road gives him. says a New York dis patch, control of more lines of transpor tation thnn any other man In tho world. Ills word alono Is law ns Involving tho spending and operation of millions of cap ital. He controls tho New York Central and Hudson Itlver railroad; the West Shoie railroad; the Harlem road; tho Home. Watertown and Osdcnsburp; road; tho Iteadlns lond; tho Erie road; nnd now the Lehigh Valley road, as Is told below. Ho therefore controls all but two of the Ricat roads that lead from this city to tho uroat West. Ho controls a huge percentnKo of the commerco car rying ferries of tho metropolis; his mines delvo Into the blaok depths of tho earth for coal, and It Is this man who sud denly looms up as the most glRiintlo figure on the financial horizon. He wiu a power several years ago, vhcn he ne gotiated the notorious bond deal, but to day, controlling these great lallroad cor porations as ho does, and even repell ing out for tho absolute control of tho St. Lawrenco rler trafllc from Clayton to Montreal, ho stands alone and unique among tho money powers of this land. o Says the New York Sun; The condi ditlons ot the present great strike ot bituminous coal miners are very easily understood, and there hais never been a moro graphlo Illustration than that af forded by them of standard economic truths which are often misunderstood and which It Is the fashion of demagogues to misrepresent and assail. Seventy-five thousand coal diggers have stopped work ing becnuse, ai they say, they cannot get a living wage fur their labor. Theio Is no doubt, that, as a general proposi tion, thc-lr statement Is true. There is Jutt an little doul ' that at the. price at which bltumlnout ooai Is now supplied to conmmortj, tho coal mine owners can not pay higher wages than the present scale. Cut -throat competition applied to a productive Industry In whlcn the nor mal supply It fax greater than tho nor mal demand has worked its natuml and Inevitable result Tho coal rnlna owners have recklessly underbid each other, Thla spring, for Instance, contracts weio mado in this city for bituminous coal to be de livered from Ohio mines ot far points on Lake Superior for $2 per ton. a prlca which barely covered the cost of tho production and transportation of the coal. If, Indeed. It did not actually fall below It. Tho bituminous mines are largely owned by railroads, and these railroads as tho result of this war, are on the verge of bankruptcy, or already In tho bands of receivers. The situation will probably be relieved by some agreement between the coal mln opeiators to charge consumers a higher price for coul, or such price at least as will afford some human motive for continuing to mine and sell tho product. Buch an agreement, it Is well known, has been found neoca sary In the anthraclto coal business in the Hast, and if such an agi cement Is not applied to the bituminous coal busi ness, the bituminous coal business will have to stop. And whn that agreement is applied, and the men go back to work at higher wages, the newspapers that liavo been howling about the wretched pay that tho plutocratB havo been giving their miners will scream themselves black in the face over tho increased pi Ice of coal to consumers," o Charters were recently issued at tho state department at Harrlcburg to two Wg coal companies to operate In north eastern Pennsylvania, The companies aro the ait.
