of editors for tho pant month, thank thu
contributor for their mipport, and will
ingly resign our position to our more
worthy successors, with good wishes
for their future success in tho journal
istic field.

I ilo moHl humbly Ocelli-Hie these lines.
Mingled with a joyous anticipation of
that timo when I shall last cross tho
threshold of that phico I lovo next to
home, I tho Inspired thought, what
good has come of all these yearn of prep
aration? Remembering that quotation
from Cooper, "Advice Is not a gift, hut
a debt tho old owe to tho young," I will
not endeavor to ml vine, hut as exorl
enco la to those of all ages I can toll
Home of the good I have received In
these many years of study.
Experience tells me, commit not your
lessons for as you advance In school II To
this method cannot hut go asunder, as
tho amount you have to learn Is too
much for tho ordinary mind. The
school's object Is not to cram with facts,
but lnMII In you the quality of self
thought.
When a student learns that ho knows
nothing in comparison with what thero
is to know, then ho Is on tho road to
success. Those two things arc very es
sential to a good student, namely, con
centration of mind and desire to learn.
I know of no things more beneficial to
a student than to rend of tho putt, ob
serve In the present, and to do tneso In
lieu of uso In tho future.
Heading, Including history and biog
raphy, Is necessary for u person, as It
presents comparison by which wo may
see the mistakes of others ami profit by
their example. It Is not my plneo to
lay out a system. I leave that to tho
more learned. Hut I just repeat tho
old saying, "Head between tho lines."
That which Is most important is not
ing the pnsslng events, observing na
ture, her laws, causes and effects, and
gaining practical experience in every
day life. Latoly and now are transpiring
events which are of vital linportnnco
both to our grnnd republic and its
brother countries.
I know of nothing more convincing of
a divine power than to dolve Into tho
earth' secrets, and nothing of more
practical use than this knowledge.
That which leads a person most assur
edly to success Is practical experience
and forthought. Upon this primarily
may bo based our great financier's and
statesmen's success. That which led
them to victory may be our plan, and
through It ultimately you, by your own
earnest endeavor, can be of good to your
country and an honor to your name.

Soft Coal Market,
('mil Trttilr .f iiiittml.1
There Is plenty of demand reported In
soft, coal circles and the outlook Is for
a continuance thereof, and now there
has been a settlement of the wages basis,
tho operators can go abend and mako
up plans for the coming season, which
really looks to be one of the most active
that has been experienced In many
years. The demand for coal has recent
ly been so heavy that, companies have
been unahlo to meet It, and In conse
quence prices havo advanced materially.
Tho price of soft coal has risen fully 50
s r cent in thu last year, and with the
advanced costof mining and tho increase
in transportation, it Is likely to stay nt
tho Increased figure.
Happily thu wage scale In the soft
coal districts of the union, which are
competitive, have been adjusted on a
basis which Is eminently fair to both
sides the working miner and tho own
er or operator of the mines. The men
are to get an advanco In the basis scale
of 14 cents a ton for the year from April
1 last. There aro some minor points to
bo settled such as tho mine run basis
compared with screened coal, but all
this will 1st satisfactorily adjusted.
In Pennsylvania there Is no let up In
thu demond for sft coal and tho rail
roads handling this coal have all their
resources taxed to furnish cars enough
and motive power sufficient to haul it
to marke), Tho high prices continue,
and tin re is no prospect of any decreaso
In price until after thu first of April, as
while with the coming of warmer weath
er the consumption may slightly do
orcase, all consumers will urgo forward
all thu coal they c:in, in order to pro
vide ahead of the Increase in freight
on this coal which goes Into effect at
that time.

A Reply to Comrade Oray.
Mr. Editor: I have read Comrade
Gray's card in tho county papers am
nolo that he base his claims to the
consideration of the Republican voter
as a candidate for Delegate to thu State
Convention on the fact that he has al
ways supported the Republican candi
date for Governor and President, and
that he carried a musket four year dur
ing tho War of the Rebellion. Ho very
carefully refrains from saying that ha
supported the rest of tho very numerou
nominee ol tho Republican party, who
are a much entitled to Republican
vote, and of a much Importance In
keeping of party organization tho
candidate for Governor and President.
There are three candidate for the
same office, namely, O. II. Hrondhcad.
S. T. North and A. R. Chnpln, who,
although too young to have carrlnd a
musket, havo not only voted for Repub
lican candidates for President and Gov
ernor, but have also the additional
merit of having supported the rest of
tho ticket, and believe that majority
rule should at all times prevail.
Comrade Gray's fling about using tho
organization for selfish purposes would
not have been mado prior to tho de
mand of the O. A. R. and W. R. C. that
tho titlo of tho Drookvlllo Memorial
Home be transferred from tho trosU-es
to the Woman' Relief Corps before,
another appropriation be mndo by
the State, Mr. Gray being one of tho
trustees. Neither would it havo been
made If Stato Treasurer Jackson had
complied with his request for a deposit
of State funds In the National bunk of
which ho Is a director. Henco it will
be seen that Comrade Gray bus a griev
ance that effects his loyalty to the Re
publican party. J. G. Mitchell,
