Revival of thelrou Industry.
A New York business man, who has
just returned from a tour through the
Pennsylvania iron districts, said to a
7 Yikune reporter:
"I found great activity in all brandies
of iron manufacture. The furnaces are
all flaming, the forges and rolling mills
are working night and day, and the nail
mills make such a racket as they have
not made before, since 1873. The high
prices of iron has stimulated the iron
masters to extraordinary exertions
Many of them have orders which it wilj
take them six months to All, and are
obliged to refuse new contracts. The
present price is largely speculative, I
think, and cannot long be maintained, for
it is unreasonable to suppose that an ar
ticle which now costs only eleven dollars
a ton to produce, can long be sold for
forty dollars; but the price will be high
enougli for some time to come to enable
the iron men to make a great deal of
money. I think they will more than
make good the losses they suffered during
the depression of the trade."
In answer to a question as to the effect
of the rise In iron on wages, he said:
"Mostof the Iron masters have voluntari
ly advanced the wages of their workmen
as prices have gone up. There appears
to be a good understanding between em
ployers and workmen throughout the iron
districts. The coal miners, however, are
dissatisfied, and in some localities have
struck for an advance."
The same gentleman remarked that he
made a point during his journey of
sounding the iron manufacturers as to
their views on the Presidential question
Nearly all of them are Republicans, he
said, and fully three-fburths express
ed themselves as decidedly opposed to
the third term project. They were divi
ded in their preferences between Blaine
and Sherman.
The following is an extract of a letter
received from a gentleman at Gardiner,
Me., which indicates the feeling among
the mass of the people in that State du
ring the present addition: "You Speak
of the outrages committed by the Fusion
ists in Maine. Ido not wonderyou char
acterize those doings as outrages. They
are greater outrages than have ever been
perpetrated officially by any party or set
of men since the beginning of our Gov
ernment. But those conspirators are
sure to come to grief for their t reasonable
doings. Our people have been in the
highest state of excitement from the be
ginning of this nefarious work. Some
200 special policemen were on duty at the
State House last night. The forde was
increased owing to threats made by the
Fusionists that they should drive Gen.
Chamhcrlin out of the State House, but
this they will find a bigger job than they
anticipated. It is one of the most fortu
nate things that could have happened
that Gen. Chantberlin is commander of
the military arm of the State. He is the
right man in the right place. He is Ac
ting Governor and will carry us through.
This secures Republican safety."
Some criticism having been lately pass
ed on the severity of oonvlct punishment
in Georgia, the Governor (Brown), of
that state, takes the matter indignantly
up, and says the Dude coal mines in which
the prisoners work, are no gloomier than
other coal mines ; the chains worn by the
prisoners while at work are put on them
to prevent attemps ut escape, which
would involve the necessity of shooting
or perhapa killing them; they greatly
prefer working in the mines, even in
chains, to close confinement within the
walls of a prison; and their lodgings are
no worse than those of coal miners usu
ally are.
An English Judge has just decided that
a set of artificial teeth is not one of the
"necessaries" of u farmer's wife, which
the husband is bound to provide or
to pay for when furnished without his
consent by a dentist. This is illogical as
it is inhuman The law recognizes
food as one of the necessaries of a mar
ried woman for which her husband is lia
ble. Is food any more essenaial than the
indispcnsible means of masticating it?
The Supreme Court of Errors in Connec
ticut, with more humanity and consis
tency, has held that Idling the teeth of a
minor is a necessary for which the dent
ist is entitled to recover.
On the bottom of the obelisk' to be
brought from Egypt to New York have
been discovered what are supposed to be
Masonic inscriptions, and these are ex
pected to prove beyond doubt the anti
quity of the Masonic order. How great
that antiquity is cannot be told until some
one tells the age of the obelisk.
