IT is highly important that Free land's business men should become more interested in the endeavor to establish industries here. DOES it not seem somewhat incon sistent for newspapers that profess to sympathize with the laboring classes to support Henry K. Boyer for state treasurer? THE Tnmnqua Courier truthfully remarks that Building and Loan As-1 sociations have been the means of building up every town where they have been introduced and properly managed. Why not establish one in Freeland ? ANY man who loves liberty cannot afford to vote for Henry K. Boyer for state treasurer. As speaker of the j house of representatives he was ever ready to vote for and defend any pro ject that could keep laboring men down. His record proves it. PETITIONS from all sections of Hlia nois are received by Governor Fifer, asking him to call a special session of the legislature to provide for the j striking Spring Valley miners. Sev eral deaths have occurred from star-1 vation and their condition is deplor able. CONGRESSMAN OSBORNE has written an article telling thnt it is necessary for the average M. C. to spend at least $15,000 a year during his congres sional term. Osborne footed last year's Republican expenses hi this district—Theobe's trip from Ken tucky, etc., —and he ought to know something about it. By the nomination of James Tanner as pension commissioner Harrison committed his first serious blunder, j The blunder lias been acknowledged j by the removal of Tanner, and if he is j as quick in rectifying his many other [ mistakes there will be more faith j placed in the administration. Next | to the man who never goes wrong j there is none more respected than the j man who is ready and willing to right a wrong. TANNEB has been unceremoniously bounced from the position he dis graced, despite the endorsement he and his methods received at the hands of the G. A. R., and it may not be amiss to enquire if Harrison intends to continue "turning the rascals out." For the past five months they have been going into office at a rapid rate, and it is questionable whether or not j! he can have them out again before his I term expires. The next Democratic | president does not want to be bur dened by the remaining "grab alls" j yet holding positions when he enters | office on March 4, 1893. THE first step towards accomplish ing any needed reform in Pennsyl vania must be in the direction of a free ballot. The workingmen asked Quay's legislature to give them the Australian system of voting, but the house of representatives, with Henry K. Boyer at its head, declared it was not necessary. The passage of such a law would abolish the corrupt and iniquitous methods practiced by cor porations nt every election. Henry K. Boyer, by his vote on that bill, acknowledged his opposition to a pure ballot, and consequently forfeited all claims upon the honest voters of this state. If you consider such a monpo listic catspaw worthy of handling the finances of Pennsylvania vote for him for state treasurer. NOTHING over exposed so thoroughly the magnificent opportunities for high-handed rascality that exist in Wall Street, says a New York news paper, as the career of Henry S. Ives, known as "the young Napoleon of finance." This young inan was a $(! a week clerk in a New York hotel when he conceived the idea that he would go into Wall Street and make his fortune. Ho went there, and for several years lost all the money he had and all he could borrow. Then, j without money and with little credit, he conceived" the idea of buying a great and prosperous railroad an.l of manipulating it to make money. As tonishing as it may seem, he accom plished this feat, and a year later he was a great railroad magnate, and ! was considered a second Jay Gould. J3y some miscalculation the liuge scheme miscarried just whon it ( seemed most successful. j llow Harrison Duped the Minerß. The coal miners of Clay County, Inch, struck on May 1 because their employers had reduced their wages. The reduction —from 90 to 70 cents per ton—was char acterized by our high-tariff neighbor, the New York Tribune, as "the largest ever demanded in the history of the coal traffic in the West." At last ac counts there were still on strike in Clay County about 2,000 men, and these, with their families, were suffering for want of the necessaries of life. These miners, who are unwilling to submit to a reduc tion of 22 percent., called on Harrison, in Indianapolis, on July 20,1888. There was a great excursion from the mining region to the home of the Republican presidential candidate, and the coal com panies, for political effect, made the number of visiting miners as large as possible. Among the mottoes borne by them were the following: "Give us Harrison and Protection." "Protection and Plenty," "Free Trade and Starva tion." "The Lamp of Experience Guides Our Feet." "Protection is Good Enough for Us." The miners were in troduced to Harrison by Major Carter, who said: "The visit is made for the purpose of attesting our devotion to the great prin ciple of a protective tariff. These men want such a policy adopted as will en rich us rather than that other policy which tends to the pauperism and desti tution of our people. In short, they want high wages, plenty of work, and plenty of good bread and butter. They believe that you Sir, are the typical representative of the great principles that underlies the platform of the Re publican party, such as high wages for our workingmen, etc." Another spokesman had a great deal to say about wages, and described the pending political issue as follows: "This is a square-toed fight. On one side bread, beef, butter, and the good tilings of this life, and Ben Harrison be side them; on the other side Uncle Grover, low wages, and Buch grub as i you can get, and be satisfied with half a loaf." 1 In response, Harrison made some re marks that have since been recalled by the miner, with anything but pleasure. Said he: "Is it not clear that that policy which secures the largest amount of work to be done at home is the policy which will secure to laboring men steady employment j and the best of wages? What, after all, is j the best evidence of a nation's prosperity j and the best guarantee of social order if ! I it is not an intelligent, thrifty, contented working class? Can we look for con tentment if the working man is only able to supply his daily necessities by his daily toil, but is not able in the vigor of youth to lay up a store against old age? A condition of things that compels the laborer to contemplate want as an incident of sickness or disability is one that tends to social disorder. — N. Y. Times. Republican Friendship for the Negro. The Cincinnatti Commercial Gazette winds up an elaborate editorial on the j suppression of the colored vote in the South with the announcement that "there are nearly eight million colored people in the Democratic Southern coun try and they haye hut one member of congress to represent them." Charity j should begin at home. It is wholly un necessary for the Gazette to waste words i of sympathy upon the far-away negro j when a more fitting object can be had in I its own state. There are nearly eighty | thousand colored people in Republican Ohio, and they have not so much as ONE | village postmaster to represent them. Does the comparison suit the Gazettef Not likely 1 Harrison gave an example of his respect for integrity and worth when he caused the appointment of an Indiana politician (under indictment then and now for ballot-box stuffing) to a position on the Chicago and Alton mail service, such position being the first one made vacant in the country. The gen tleman dismissed to make room for this unjailed scamp of Harrison's was a negro, appointed one year ago by Presi dent Cleveland. Republican friendship for the negro is all a myth. Tanner Won't Starve. "The wolf of want must in common decency be driven from the door of the maimed or diseased veteran." Such were the words used by Corporal Tanner in an address at Nashville, | Tenn., not long ago. Since his dismissal | from office it may cause some to ask i how he will now keep the wolf from his I own door. Upon a little investigation ' this will not seem a very hard task, inas much as he received a salary of 15,000 and a private pension of SBO4 per an ; mun, but for fear that the wolf should | sneak in through the windows his daugh ter Nettie is guarding one of them in his department with a salary of $720, and his daughter Ada is guarding another one with a SI,BOO salary. These salaries would keep the wolves away from the doors of two or three disabled or maimed veterans, but Corporal Tanner was not the man to leave his own unprotected. As our caption states: Tanner won't starve. Democracy and Failures. The Philadelphia Press says: "The failure of a large cotton mill in Rhode Island yesterday will no doubt be good I news for the free traders. They relish this sort of thing." If the Press refers to the Democratic party it is ill-natured. The Democratic party does not wish any sort of disaster. But if half the failures and reductions of wages that have | occurred since the 4th of March had occurred last year the Philadelphia Press 1 would have found in them poof as strong as holy writ of the damaging effects of I President Cleveland's message and the , Mills bill. Does not the Journal of Com j tnerce state the exact truth when it says: j "It Cleveland and his tariff reform had J won the day, our ears would have been 1 stunned with the charge that this policy has already stopped hundreds of looms, thrown thousands of workmen into hope less poverty and wasted millions of capi tal. With what huge head lines the I journals advocating the doctrine of pro tection would have announced these (successive disasters, and with what pathetic langugge they would ltave call- ] Ed upon the people to witness the truth [of their predictions! Each successive failure would have been pointed at as a further illustration of what foreign com petition, encouraged by the heartless and unpatriotic support of the free traders on this side of the water, was doing to ruin the fair fabric of American industry." Is it not a fact, Philadelphia Press, that you deplore these commercial misfortunes principally because they give the lie to the rot you habitually publish ? _ _ _ A Potter for Porter. Superintendent of the Census Porter says the English free traders "tumble over each other trying to get to this side to invest their millions safely." "Beer is protected, you know," he continues, "and they have gone into the brewing business. Iron and steel are protected still more, and I should think they would jump into those lines with even greater celerity." It appears from what Mr. Porter thinks that the English capi talists are not jumping into the more protected lines with even greater celer ity. We are willing to draw inferences from facts; we cannot undertake to draw inferences from what he would, or should, think, might, could, would or should be a fact. It is a fact that there are few of our products less benefitted by the tariff than beer, because, as an article of large bulk and small value, the cost of transportation amounts to a pro tection. But let this go. Let us assume that British investments in our brewer ies prove that our tariff makes this coun try attractive to foreign capitalists. So far, so good. In the first seven months of 1888, 357,125 immigrants canie to this country; in the first seven months of 1889 only 269,140 came. This is a de crease of 87,979, or about one-fourth. Do we understand the accomplished statistician to believe that the election of Harrison and a Republican House of Representatives makes this a noon COUNTRY FOR CAPITAMSTB AND A BAD ONE FOR LABORERS?— National Democrat. A Viiluuble Accession. The Commercial Advertiser, the oldest of the New York newspapers, establish ed in 1794, was for many years a stalwart Republican journal. Recently it lias been independent, but in announcing a change of form and other improvements it states that, while yielding none of its independence, it will labor for the success of Democratic principles of government. "Among our political parties," it says, "the Democratic party, in spite of its shortcomings and errors, which have been patent and many, is the one which has exhibited on the whole the greatest fidelity to the noble principles we uphold. We prefer it, therefore, to any other, but only when, and to the extent in which, it acts in accordance witli real Democratic inspirations." The Commer cial Advertiser gives tho following as its interpretation of Democratic doctrine: "We hold that the grand function of the government, as the organ representative of the whole people and not a class, is to defend and protect rights, rather than to foster and encourage interests. Govern ment is a juridical and an eleemosynary institution, leaving every man to the exercise of his individual faculties, and holding the .-egis of impartial justice over tho equal rights of all the members of society, is the most powerful source of personal and social development." The "National Democrat." Edmund Hudson has begun the publi cation of a weekly Democratic news paper at Washington, D. C., entitled the National Democrat. From a perusal of the two first issues we are convinced that the editor will be successful in his undertaking and the work done by him will result in disseminating Jeffersonian truths in every section of the United States. To Democrats and Republicans who are anxious to know what is being done by both political parties the Nation al Democrat will prove an invuluable me dium. The subscription price is $1,50 per year. A Ileal Soldier'* Opinion. Gen. Martin T. McMahon, a Grand Army man, one of the Board of Gover nors of tho Soldiers' Home of New York, and who has given close study to pension matters, declares it to be bis deliberate conviction that the pension legislation suggested at the last encampment of the Grand Army at Milwaukee will, if enacted into laws, cost the people of the United States as much as did the war itself. He says that it is time the thoughtful, patriotic men of the Grand Army should protest. Nobody will doubt that General McMahon is entitled to speak as a representative of the veterans. He was in the field in every battle fought by the Army of the Potomac during its five years of service. He caught General Sedgwick in bis arms at Gettysburg as he fell dying. Two of his brother successively commanded the 164 th New York and sucessively fell at the head of that regiment. If the service pension bill should be adopted General McMahon would receive the largest possible pension under it. Gen eral McMahon said: "In my opinion the prevailing senti ment of the Grand Army, if it could be properly ascertained, would be found to be simply this, that the Government should comply with the implied contract made with the men who entered the service in the war of '6l by giving liberal pensions to those who were actually disabled and to the widows of the dead soldiers who are in need. Neither the Government nor the people ever under took to do more than this, and the talk about pensioning every man, without reference to bis physical disability or his condition in life, is carried to an absurd excess by many people who claim to represent tho Grand Army." THE Shamokin school board will not employ any teachers under eigh teen years of age. This is rather rough on the sweet sixteen teachers. SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE. EDITOR TRIBUNE.— In your issue of the 12th inst. the attention of the miners' examining board for this district is called to the complaints made by certain par ties concerning the action of said board in granting certificates to parties who are supposed to be not entitled to such, and as you kindly request that an expla nation be given, we as the examining board for this end of the district, wili avail ourselves of the opportunity of fered. We desire to state that at no time, and under no other conditions, has there been a certificate given to any person other than by the rules laid down for our guidance. To ascertain who was and who was not entitled to receive cer tificates certain rules were laid down. In many cases it did not seem prudent to take the verbal statement of the par ties interested, as to the time they were employed as miners previous to the pas sage of this act, and in such cases we had to have recourse to the mine fore man to verify their assertions. To those who had not been actually engaged as miners at the time, owing to being en gaged at other occupations, such as drivers, etc., and whom we had any reason to doubt, the service of the mine foreman was again brought into requisi tion, and upon his recommendation.or rejection _we acted. Whenever any doubts existed in the minds of the mem bers of the board, the applicant was compelled to undergo an examination, anil we invariably found such men (drivers) ranking above the average miner in practice. At the tipper Lehigh colliery a gentle man made application to be registered, and in order to get his name properly one of the board suggested that he go home and bring his pay envelope, so that his name could be properly placed on his certificate. Upon returning he brought his tax receipt and pay envel ope. On the envelope he was rated as a laborer and on the tax receipt he was placed as a miner. Seeing how matters stood the board decided to register him as a miner, but tire mine foreman being present gave the following explanation as to how he came to be rated as a labor er. For some years back the gentleman in question had been working as a miner, but previous to the passage of the act of May 9, 1889, he had finished his breast, and as is often the case he had to wait until new openings were made, and that as soon as a place would be ready for him lie was to start again as a miner. This information, coming from the mine foreman, who bad every opportunity of knowing the facts in the case, caused the board lo grant him a certificate. At the same colliery there are several miners who have sons working with them, who have not yet attained their majority, and who are working for their fathers, and could not be classed as miners. The board was asked what action would be taken in their case. The parents of these young men vouch ed, as did also the mine foreman, that they were as good, and some even better miners than their fathers, and as a con sequence certificates were granted to them. That some who have received certifi cates are not entitled to them may be true, but when the manner in which the facts were to got at as to their qualifica tions it can readily be seen that the board is not to blame. With very few exceptions, the fourteen hundred who made application for certificates, either as practical miners or laborers desiring to be examined, were strangers to us and , as a consequence we had to take their word or the words of the mine foreman that they had been employed as miners ! before the passage of the net. The number of applicants for exami ! nation has been over one hundred, and i we can say that nearly seventy-five Tier cent, of that number failed to pass. We expected that if any person was so mean as to get a certificate by false represen tation there would he some man honest enough to expose him, hut up to the pre sent time no person has come forward to prove that any unlawful means were used to procure certificates, j We desire to call the attention of all who have not availed themselves of the opportunity to get registered, that we will be at the Woodside school house in Foster township all day on Saturday, September 21, for the purpose of regis tering, and examining those who may desire to enter the class for examination. Wo would be pleased to hear com plaints from any person who knows of parties receiving a certificate who was not entitled to it, and we will have the same annulled upon proof being shown that it was obtained by false representa tions. Hoping that tliis statement may be satisfactory, we remain, JAMES HAKKINS, 1 THOMAS SMITH, >■ Examiners. THEOF. GIBBON, ) Freeland, Sept. 17, 188 U. Locusts tn Cyprus. The pest of locusts has boeu fought vigorously and successfully in Cyprus by gathering the eggs and catching the developed insects by systems of screens. The number of eggs collected increased from thirty-seven and one-half tons in ! 1879 to 236 tons in 1880 and 1.320 tons ! in 1881. More than 6,000 screens wore ; employed in 1882 and 196,000,000,000 j insects were destroyed. The system was steadily made moro effective, and in 1886 there were available for use more than 11,000 screens and 13,000 traps, the screens representing an ag gregate length of about 316 miles, or nearly the whole coast lino of the island.
