Anthracite's New Epoch.
ITtI Till", d iRiinpm run ua
"nf the Pennsylvania
Coal company, as an In
J
dependent factor In the
nuthmeltp trade It becomes manifest
thai the anthracite Industry must
rion become wholly subsidiary to thj
ralliouds whleli transport Its product
t marltel. This neei's,irlly Involves
I ho extinction of the Individual opera
tor and the transfer of power from
the mines to the magnates in New
Vork. The process of consolidation
which has linen the dominant charac
teristic of the economic movements
of the rait decade Is now working It
self out In relation to the one great
Industry upon which our community
was founded: and the question of con-f-eriuenc"s
may well claim local atten
tion. N'e do not hesitate to my that this
prospect of the centralization of oper
ative power in hands remote from the
mines adds to the need of local effort
to Instal additional small industries.
I'roflts In mining hitherto accumu
lated as local capital and to some
measuie available in the support of
local enterprise will now be with
drawn and there will remain in local
i hannt'l.s only the wages paid to labor.
This must he supplemented by other
home industrial investments if the
growth of the past is to bo continued.
The entry of the huge carrier com
panies into control of the anthracite
li"ld will make possible the payment
.)! steadier wages in the mines In
seasons of business depression, for the
reason that their ampler capital and
prollts In transportation will better
stand the strain. The. probable early
disappearance of the company stoic,
with its abolition of the credit system
and substitution of free trading on
a ecsli basis, will swell the volume of
general business and thus constitute
n compensatory feature.
In recent years the individual opor
ntors have complained of vanishing
profits. With their capital returned
to them in purchase money and thus
liberated for new investments, will
they seek home opportunities for re
Investment, or proceed to other fields?
Upon this question largely depends
the future of Scranton; and it ih time
that those of our public-spirited citi
zens who have home interests to pro
tect, and the will to protect them,
should nlve consideration to it and
take counsel together as to measures
fruitful in safeguarding their proper
lies and ambitions.
The New Yoik Sun weakens its cam
paign ug.iinst the Hay-Pauncefote
'treaty by the virulence of its attacks
upon Secretary Hay. There is room
'for honest difference of opinion as to
'the extent to which the United States
'should recognize European partner
'ship in the Nicaragua canal; and over
'details of canal administration great
'minds naturally differ, nut in the fact
'that Secretary Hay and the Sun do
'not look at these matters from an Iden
'tlral standpoint theie is no warrant for
'the Sun's abusing the secretary or the
'slate worse than It would borate a
'xne.ik thief or highwayman.
The One Great Drawback.
'-W-iyllE ONK gteat practical

Juu lor Scranton as a speond

being lost sight of In the current dls
I'UssIan of this problem. "We refer to
the city's Inability to protect Its legis
lative Interests from continual em

and cross plays of the Allegheny coun

question of merit or demerit lospoetlng

Among other things, he said:

To better appreciate the uiowtli of the nation
a few comparisons may not seem III achlscd.
Hail there been no clungo In area, and without

and would have a population more nu

it would ruit-niinihei Austria plu? Sweden, Kwlt
7ciland and firceee. The population nt these
seventeen states i.s very nearly equal to that of
Great llritalu.
The twenty-nine states admitted ehirinjr the cen

reeding the Orman empire plus Oreat lliilaln,
France, Spain, Portugal, Itelgiilm, Hungary,
Italy, fireeie, Pennnrk and Sweden. The llnltid

pean Russia and larger than all Uurope except
lltivda, while our population is ne.nly equal to
(reat lhitaln and Pianco combined, and ontu
and a bilf as laigo as the Geinian empire, 'the
area of the Unltcel States, exclusive of orgamVeel

and our popiihtlon flfteen-folcl is one bundled

While the" population of the United States has

When the seat of government was moved to
the Pistiict of Columbia over five million people
were elepemlenl almost entliely upon agiieulture
and fisheries, 'lhe-ir clothing wns spun and woven
in the homo of the winter; their grain, home
giown, was mound to older, and aeir meal,
mostly "langc-fed, ' was gcneially olauirliteieil at
the door of the consumer. The table of the
average Ameiican was not then dehor tbriee a
day to tluee continents for what we now call
necessaries. Very little consumed by that fru
gal people, salt and mm excepted, bad been
transported twenty miles from the place c.t its
pioduedon.
Time forbids even a ba-ty leview of the mole
recent as well as more man clous impiovi incuts
in agricultuial methods and appliances, which,
in forty-live jcais, nave reduced the time in hit
man labor icimircd to ptoduee a bushel of coin
eighty-five per cent,, and the cost of Ibis labor,
notwithstanding ever-inct casing wages, seventy
per cent., and which have reiluced the finie in
human labor required to taiso n bushel of wheat
from nn avciago otmnie than three hours in ifuo
to ten minutes at the present time, and the
cost of human labor fiom seventeen cents to
tluee and a half cents. Itateb of tian-i,oilatinn
have also in.iteii.illy deereised. Iho average late
per ton per mile ehatged by one of the olde-t
and best known roaets in the l'nlteil States has
been leditced more than ninety per cent, since
1S"n, and the avetage rate elniged by all loads
in tins country lias decreased sixty-one per cent,

A recent decision of the Now Yorlt
supreme court which decrees to the
effect thnt women legally have no right
to remain out beyond midnight, will
no doubt furnish food for additional
argument on the part of those who ad
vocate suffrage for the so-called weak
er sex. The courts In the Instance
afore mentioned decided thnt a lady
boarder at a hotel which was closed
at midnight had no right to demand
a latch key that would admit her at
a later hour. This Is certainly an un
fair discrimination, when one consid
ers thnt the man who attends "lodge"
Is granted dispensations way beyond
this in order that prolonged sessions

all have righteous cause to make a
protest against such rulings.

come a public and a special pleader for his re
ligion in the country to which lij is accredited.
Would it bo considered the proper thing in our
minister to publicly and jealously advocate the
claims of Christianity in the Floweiy Kingdom?
Criticism nf the accomplished minister's coiiise
is especially peitineiit because China sustains
very strained iclatious to this country, in view
of tlie cruel anel most baibarous musacic of
Ameiican citizens in that land and especially of
l.'lnistian missionaiies, because they weic Cluis
tians. You ask: "Why should not Wu have the same
freedom for discussion in tills countiy that wc
claim for Ameiican missionaries in ililna?" He
cause bo is the minister from China and not a
piivati missionaiy, anil because be is discussing
ittcstions that 1 elate to the main issue between
his country und outs, and in tlie settlement of
which he may be called to assist. H would seem,
therefoie, that both gooel taste and propiiely
should lead him to maintain an 0lllel.1l reserve
regarellng u religion that appears in such a ques
tionable light, at least until a more oppoitune

THE ARMY CANTEEN.
Editor ol The Tiibune
Sh: One ,ve.ir ugu my wife am) 1 held a ten
elajs meeting in thu Soldiers' Home ut Hampton,
Va, I vvisli to give tho readeis of The Tiibune
what I know of tbe canteen as I saw it during
my stay, Theie were about 1,000 men in tho
lioiue; the average ago was 0.), and they weio
eljing pfT at the rate of three each day, If there
is u place nu.eailli where you can see the fruits
of the whiskey business it Is ill the I'll I lied lives
of these men in this home.
Every trap and inducement is laid Just outside
the homo to get tho few dollais pension money.
Not only on the outside, but on the inside, tho
government raiitren assists in feeding the appe
tite, taking the profits of the leiiiiiaut of the
lives of the men who etcfeiiileil the flag; taking
pension money bae.lt In cscli ingc for elrink, lliat
should go to many wives and chllilren who slaiul
In soie need of this money,
This money Is used to provide entertainment
anil supply tho reading loom with the best read,
ing 111 titer. Out of this canteen fuml they gavo
me $100 for my ten dajs' work, Thera uie some
things that could be said In favor of the canteen
as I saw It, if men should have drink at all, We
elon't think they need it at all.
The heir seived U a special biew with a light
per cent, of alcohol. Then men would lino up
until the line would extend away out into tlie
grounds, a glutei standing as they pa.sod In ami
line iM they passed out, If onn glass of beer
would show itself in the man he would not get
any more. Thu antral was not opened day ami
night as many of the saloons are, but for about
two hour in the morning and as much in the
afternoon.
Chaplain ft II, Uiadley nnd Ids good wife are
doing what they can to save this pour, de
bauched manhood, but while they now auei then
pull one out the government pushes hundreds in.
Why don't the government hero ami in the
army join hands with Its chaplains and take away
frini tho lobllera pn the Inslelc of the home ami
the bo,s on the outside thesn open elooro to perdl.
tionf When will the I'ldld) htates government
take its liaiiils oft this lionia and life-drs'trojlng
busliiu anil lluovv tbl blood money elouu? Nut
until wc Christian men teacli it that wc want
