namely,

or over to be advanced 20 per cent.
All other labor employed in or outside
of mines engaged in the production or

cent, including existing dead work.
When authorized the operator will
make such collections through the of-
fice as the employes may agree upon.
All other conditions are to remain as
they now exist. This means that
general dead work scale will be grant-
ed, no thick and thin differeatial scale
introduced, or any regulation made in
regard to the hours to be worked
day
The miners have reasen to rejoice.
They have made a good seale, better,
possibly, than some of them expected.
They have really fared better than the
Pittsburg district miners.
In addition to an increase of wages
all around they have been granted the

est concession. This is only in effect at
a few mines, and it means that a check

West Salisbury Granted a Post-
office.
The much desired post-oflice which
the people of West Salisbury have so
long been striving for was granted last
week, when Joseph Patton was appoint-
ed postmaster of the same.
When we say that the new oflice was
granted during this month, we know
what we are talking about, and the
people of West Salisbury know that our
statement is true. Furthermore, the
January and February Postal Guides
verify our statement, the Meyersdale
Commercial to the contrary notwith-
standing. Furthermore, we knew all
along more about the progress of the
West Salisbury post-office matter than
even the people in West Salisbury
themselves knew about it. All that
Lucifer Smith knew about the matter
was unoflicial, and when he first an
nounced the establishment of the new
oflice and the appointment of the new
postmaster, there was not one grain of
truth in the statement, as Mr.
himself knows.
The contest for and against the es-
tablishment of the West Salisbury post-
oflice was vigorous, but friendly. A
few business men in our Western sub-
urb will no doubt profit considerably
by the establishment of the office, while
the general business interests of
Patton
Ralis-
bury borough will suffer to some ex-
tent by it. Taking the two communi-
ties as a whole, we believe the new of-
fice will be a drawback to the general
advancement of this vicinity, for rea-
sons which we believe will make them-
selves manifest to all our people in the
near future. Of
mistaken in this,
course we may be
and for the general
good of the community we hope we are.
We always admired enterprise
hustle in men, and while we believe
that the West Salisbury post-oflice is
not, never was nor never will be need-
ed, even in an ordinary
word, we nevertheless

SuCCess.
As we have said, the contest was a
friendly one, although the Meyersdale
Commercial been trying hard to
inject enmity into it. 3ut that is
the Commercial's nature—always pok-
ing its ugly mug into other people’s af-
fairs and trying to create strife where
for it. Lucifer, of

A Horse Suicides.
One of the queer incidents connected
with mining occurred in mine No. 3 of
the George's Creek Coal & Tron Co. on
I'riday of last week. An old room or
dip in the mine, which has been filled
with water for some time, has been
used as a watering place for the liorses.
On the day above mentioned the driver
led his horse to the place where it usu-
ally went to drink, when
suddenly

valked into the dip which was full of
water to the roof, making no effort to
return, and was drowned. The water

ALFRED § Si ED R,
the Pioneer wine grower of New Jersey whose Port Graps wine and
Burgandy rivals the world, imported the Port Grape vines many
years ago, and planted vineyards in the Passaic Valley N. J. The soil
in Passaic county, New Jersey, is identical to that of de'Meénetiz.
Speer’s New Jersey Vineyards
are situated in the Passaic valley below the mountain range and the
grapes are carted to the winery in the town of Passaic where they are
mashed between rollers made of rubber, which do not break the seeds,
and made into wine.
These grand wines of Speer’s that have mellowed in flavor in the
course of years ot ripening, are the choicest wines in this country and
can only be obtained by ps iy ing a price that is higher than new wines
from western vineyards. Mr. Speer deems it necessary for a healthy
wine that it be allowed years to mature in wood to get rid of its
coarse parts; with this object he keeps his wines several years in
fumigated ceilars and frequently racks before bottling or offering for
sale. The repatation of Speer's wines as a valuable medicinal and
family wine extends around the ea.
Grocers and Druggists sell Speer’s Wines and Brandy.
