Entered at the Freeland Postojjice as Second Class Matter. FREELAND, PA., JANUARY 28, 1802. 1- Report on Contract Labor. Contract Labor Inspectors Conkling and Osborne, who were sent from New York to the mining districts of Pennsyl vania to investigate the workings of the alien contract law, have sent their report to Secretary Foster, of the Treasury de partment. Their report states that they discovered evidences of wholesale viola tion of the law that was framed to pro tect American workingmen. In tin mines surrounding Scranton it was found that nine-tenths of the miners at present employed are Hungarians, Italians and Slavs. Five years ago the miners there were nearly all Americans. At the mines near Carbondale in 1886 there w ere tioh miners, all Americans. While the miners' strike was on in 1889-90, large numbers of .Slavs and Hungarians were brought to the mines from Castle Garden under the protection of PinkertonV detectives. At the last election out ol 787 miners employed there just 08 were entitled to vote. The inspectors found j that immigrants were brought over from Europe in droves, passed through the Ilarge office by an agent and taken to the mine to supersede American miners. There are several men employed by the mine owners, whose sole duty is to visit the Barge office and get immigrant con tract laborers passed through. The ins pectors recommend more stringent scrutiny of immigrants passing through the different landing places, At present they say the law is practically useless, a.- eontract laborers pass through by thousands without detection. The coal operators and managers ol large mining interests deny the allega tions set forth by the inspectors, and some are very outspoken in their denun- i ciation of the report. The Philadelphia Press, through its correspondents, inter viewed several, and they all seem to agree in the matter. The operators at Scranton and Wilkes-Barre denied that contract labor was employed in those regions. Foreigners were employed, but they did work which Americans did not I care for. The operators denied that there was discrimination in wages be tween Americans and foreigners. Opera tors at Pottsville said that foreigners were employed to a large extent in many instances, but there was no violation ol the law. The operators in the Lehigh region refused to speak on the subject and the Ilazleton correspondent of the Press sent to that paper the following, which shows how eager some people are to misrepresent the coal regions : "Coal operators here have nothing to say about alleged evasions of the contract labor law. They evidently take the ground that as they do not evade it at present they have no reason to apologize or defend themselves in print. There is no doubt in the minds of the public that the law is evaded. This applies not only to collieries near by Ilazleton, but at Drifton, Beaver Meadow, Audenried and several other places. Eckley B. Coxe is generally believed to have been the first man to bring Slavs, Magyars, Tyroleans, Neapolitans and Lombards here, but this is an error. The original offender was a railroad contractor who is now not in this region. The foreigners have driven out nine-tenths of the white men, as English, Welsh, Irish and American miners are termed. They live like cattle, sometimes seventy in a small house, sleeping naked on straw in a cellar. Crime has increased enormously throughout the coal regions since tliev came. It is estimated that $150,000 is sent each month from the collieries about this city to Southern Europe by the mine workers." The Ilazleton correspondent judges the whole community by the people he finds in his own town. EVERY one of these taxes (on com modities and buildings) the ostensible taxpayer—the man on the assessor's books—shifts to other shoulders. The only tax he cannot shift is the tax on his land values. — Detroit Evening Netee. Another Pica for Tax Reform. The Lehighton Advocate raises its voice in favor of a more just valuation ot j coal lands, and calls attention to the ! plain discrimination made in assessing the lands owned by farmers and those ol the operators. It says: "The average rateof assessment of farm lands per acre is about $42 while the average valuation of coal lands is but a little more than $65 per acre. Is this fair? There is not a coal operator in | Carbon County who would willingly sell. | bargain or alien one acre of bis coal land for the best farm in the county, and yet 1 if the township or district assessor rates this priceless coal property at any wt y near a fair and square figure this greedy, grasping, avaricious operator with a swarnt of special corporation attorneys and lick-spittle hirelings lift their hands in holy horror at the outrage on their feelings and pocketbooks and sweep down on assessor and commissioners witli haste and fury only equalled by their effort to cheat the county and people out of their fair share of taxes. The fame of Carbon County's commissioners will I live forever if the; resist the coal oper ators and corporations in their effort to have their valuation reduced below what is only an honest valuation of property that cannot be bought for any price." The Advocate is on the rigid track, but it is doubtful if any benefit or relief can be had by striking so iiard at the oper ators. They are only human, and, like the rest of mankind, take the advantage of every imperfect law that conies n their way. The tax laws, or rather the principle upon which they are founded, is where the difficulty is encountered when assessors try to make a fair return of land valuations. It is at the system the blows should he struck, and if all taxes were levied upon land values then farmers would not he paying almost the same amount as operators, whose land, as the Advocate truly says, "cannot he bought at any price." The average far mer, however, persists in having bills introduced in Legislatures in which every article known is taxed, heedless of the fact that every such tax can be saddled without the least trouble upon his own shoulders. The one tax that cannot be shifted is that levied upon land values, and that is the system far mers and all other laboring men should work for. It would end the reign of coal kings and land speculators. THE Dec does not say that it will be a full-fledged single tax advocate. It be lieves in it in theory now; it pauses only on the threshold of doubt as to the ex pediency under existing circumstances. ".Sacramento (Cat.) lice. BRIEF ITEMS OF INTEREST.

If it is ago local talent may get a chance to display itself. Ilazleton is being handled without gloves by the newspapers of Luzerne, Carbon and Schuylkill Counties for its inability to suppress crime. Its county seat talk has dwindled down to a few occasional lines in the "new city" papers. SprriidinK the . In Schuylkill County there are many : men whose counterparts can he found I around here. These are of a class thai is continually complaining about big! taxes, yet they refuse to assist or takt part in any movement for the abolitioi •f all unnecessary and useless taxei- The Ashland Record has the following U >ay f them: 'There are many real estate owners ir I 'own who refuse to paint and other wist improve their property for the reason 'bey say, that the assessors will increase ! its taxable value. Ami yet these saint people call Henry George, who oppose! taxing industry, a crank. If all taxei were placed on land values, every owne; i"f property in tlie country who could af ford to do so would improve it and tht result would he that thousands of me ehanics now idle would have employ ment. When once people learn thai fining a man by taxing him for being n benefit to the community is an injustice, the single tax doctrine will become mort popular."
