An Incident of Martial Law.
THR cnfotceiuent of martial
law In Cape Colony has been
a very delicate nutter, and
on that account the delega
tion of ainhoilly to Incompetent hands
has caubed much ailver.se criticism,
. especially in view of subsequently re
conciling the t'.ipe Dutch to British
itile. The lecent case of Dr. It, J.
Relneke lllustiates this very cleat ly.
IJr. Relneke, a KX-ultmle of Kdinbuigh
and OlasROW, was a Dutch colonist In
Ceres, a small town In Cape Town sixty
or seventy inllqs from Cape Toft n.where
for the; past five yetus he has been the
n-Hldcnt physician. J.ast August the
town was put upder the command of
fan Austiallaiucaptalii and one of thu
Tfltnti at vWas tu order Dr. flelneke

j a ;towtv rifty miles distant. Xo lettson
wtts Kjyen for the, order and the only
-t-concessloii made nhen ah appeal was
vfi-nt to lieodqu-trteis was that Helneke's
fwlfe and chlldreiiinlMlit remain lit their
Joia 1101,110, on hlH anlval In Mnlnies.
Jhuty he was put, in Jail, There he ic
jjnalned for u month, when he was ie-
flensed- through a, habeas corpus, only

aveek, he was leturned to the Jail,

' In the ye.-r 1900, as follows:
The quantity of coal raised ftom all, the
mines Iti the world was 767,C:!fi,204 tons;
of lion 40,427,43., tons: petroleum 1S,
rwa.O.'iO tons: , salt 12,r,7.,.7fi tons; lead
7S7.S41 tons! copper 5:14,73"! tons: Kino
440,371! tops; tin 50,643 tons. In the
same year thete was taken irom the
earth of the two more pieclous metals,
silver and gold respectively, 3,874, 2S4
kilograms and 393.196 kllogiams a kil
ogram being a little over 2. '2 pounds
av.olrdupols. Although the output of
coal in the I'lilted States is greater
than that of Great lirllaln and lteland
combined, It 1s a little less than tliat
of the whole Biltish emplie that of the
t'nlted States for the year 1900 being
about L'4',000,000 tons, and that of the
Uiitlsh empire 218,000,000 tons. Ger
many comes next as a coal producer,
her mines having yielded In the same
year 150,000,000 tons. Austrla-Hungniy
stands fotttth with an output of about
40,000,000 tons. Great Britain leads the
woi Id In her yield of tin, producing half
as much as the other nations combined.
But as regards the pioduction of cop-
pei, iron, zinc ami leau tne t'luteu
States leads all the test of the world.
The' Biltish empire, however, Including
all her vast numbe'r of colonies, takes
the lead again in the output of gold,
diawlng In the year 1900 from her mines
188,491 kilograms of that costly metal.
These great mines of the world weie
U oi Iced In the year mentioned by 4,47iJ,
000 peisons. The occupation of mining
is generally considered lather a dan
geious one, but it is both gratifying and
sutpilslng to leain that the death rate
fioni accidents In mines In 1900 thiough
out the whole woi Id was less than two
per thousand of the persons employed.
The lowest death rate was In Belgium,
being only a little over one person to
the thousand, the highest In Bosnia
and Heizegovlna, leaching Iheie neatly
eight to the thousand. In the United
Kingdom of Gieat Britain and Ireland
it was a little over one and a quar
ter to the thousand, and In the United
States a little over three and a quarter.
The higher death rate here, than In
Gieat Britain is due to the greater use
of inachlneiy in oUr jnines. The world's
agriculttue can never be exhausted,
new. crops fiom seed left over being
piodtlcPd each year. But the mines of
the woi Id must In time give out as in
them no leplenishliig or j-epioduclng
piocess ear by year Is going on. But
that day Is so far distant that it need
give no Immediate concern, unless It
be In legard to coal, the output of
which is so enormous as already to lead
to anious calculations In i expect to
how long It can last.

TALKS BY THE PUBLISHER.
The Tribune's Popular Contests How They Ate Looked Upon
by- the Public j'jij..jti.Mjtjij.i
D
t'ltlNO iho past two yen in The
Tribune hits conduyted several
contests of various Idmln Hint
have proved very popular. There has
been nothing tindlgtilfleil about any of
these itiid n gratifying feature of each
has been that every person who parti
cipated has been perfectly satisfied with
the results. The Tribune has never
advertised to do a thing thut It hits
not tlone: It has never promised any to
wards that have tiot been given,
Aside from Its third grent "IMtica
tlonal Contest," announced two weeks
ago. iheie have been otheis of similar
magnitude but not the less Interesting
or piofltiible to participants. Chief
among these was Its "Junior 12ducutlon
nl 'Contest," conducted during Decem
ber, when n long list of valuable Christ
mas gifts was given to the children
who succeeded In forming the most
words out or the lettets In "Scranton
Ttlbuiic." Words of commendation
were heard on every side for The Tri
bune's liberality, and for the onnortun-
Ity offered by it to the young people to
linplove their educations. Letters were
received ftom those who wete fortunate
enough to earn prizes In this contest,
and alo from many otheis, commend
ing Tlu-Tilbune for Its enterprise. Here
Is a sample of the letters received:

Beside this word-building contest
there was the short story contest, In
which a huge number ot very ciedlt
able stoiles were submitted, those
whose eflorts were adjudged to be the
best receiving cash prizes. This also
had a great educational value, and The
Tilbunc hopes soon to be able to make
another offer along this line.
Just at present no efforts are being
lttctance on part ot Ohloans to long
allow anything In sight to lemaln un

snared In make the third gipat I'dticu
tlonal Contest an unparalleled success.
This year there are four times as many
scholarships offered tin there, were hist
yearwith a value three tlmeit as great.
II Is safe to say that no such offer was
uer made In this section of the state,
find It Is doubtful It such an offer will
ever be lopeatci). Instead of tlneo great
scholarships, covering three n'r four
year., ai wus offered lasl year, there
atp, at. least ten, .covering front three
to five yenis, many of these not only
including tuition, but also board, room,,
heat and light.
This offer Is of such magnitude that
It Is hard to realize that for thu work
of only it few months ti complete edu
cation, fitting any young man or
woman for active life, con be obtained
with practically no expense duping the
whole teini of years beyond spending
money.
There were only ten active contest
ants lasl year, yet there tiro thirty-two
scholaishlps offeied In this contest, It
tlll probably take but very few points
to secure u scholaishlp of considerable
value. Still The Tribune places no
limit on the number of points necessary
to seeuio il icwurd. The contestants
with the largest number of points secure
the scholarships, no matter how small
the numbers may be. Tho Tribune Is
willing to take all tho chancps on Its
securing returns on Its investment the
returns may not all come this year,
but the paper is growing better every
day, and as long as Its .circulation con
tinues to Increase its revenue Is sine
to Inciease also and If tile return does
not all come this year It will come In
future years. Subscribers have but to
learn the superiority of the paper by
personal coinpailson to continue their
subscriptions. Kxpeilence has shown
this-to be the case, and those Kduca
lional Contests have done much to
bring Tlie Tribune to the attention of
new readers.
In another column this morning aie
given-the opinions of a number of
Scrnnton'.s clergymen on The Tribune's
enterpilse. We are grateful to these
gentlemen for their kind woids, and
wish to ussuie our leaders that their
rem'arks only leflect the sentiments of
ninny people. In all walks of life, as
they have been expressed to us during
the past two weeks.
