FREELAND TRIBUNE. VOL. V. No. 30. WHY WE ARE CROWDED. THE REASON OF LOW WAGES AND * BITTER COMPETITION. A Prominent Writer Trace.* the Cau*e of Poverty to It* Source—Abolinh Monop oly in Laml and Give All an Kquul Opportunity to Live. In his statement before the New York investigating commitee, Mr. McLeod as serted that the regular charges on everv ton of coal mined by the Philadelphia and Reading Coal and Iron Company were: Royalty, 35 cents; interest, 25 cents; transportation, $1.70; handling 15 cents; a total expense of $2.45, with less than 45 cents worth of lahor. To this must be added the labor, cost and the profits for invested capital and the amount is the selling price of coal as it fluctuates according to the supply and demand for it—an unfavorable market must be at the expense of either or both of the two factors in its production—la bor and capital. According to a statement made by Mr. Corbin in 1888, th i labor-cost is leHs tban 25 per cent, of the selling price of coal. Monopoly teaches that the only hope for an increase in wages is by increasing coal prices, to the disadvantage of other wurkmen and other industries. A por tion of the consumers buy coal by the pailful!, follow ash wagons to scrape for refuse coal, while interested gentlemen are discussing the restriction of the out put and the overproduction of coal. There is no overproduction of coal. We are not producing enough to meet the demands of the people. But being burdened down with excessive charges it is placed out of reach of many anx ious consumers. It is not necessary to increase the price of coal in order to. raise wages. A reduction in the charges for royalty and the toll would leave a , larger margin for labor and capital and besides increase the consumption of coal. It appears unjust that the landowner should receive as much royalty as the miner who cuts the coal. If this is wrong, there must be Borne remedy for it. Calling it wrong will not remedy it. And the question occurs, what are you going to do no about it? We reason this way: An increase in royalty or toll will reduce wages. A reduction in royalty or toll will in crease wages or the consumption of coal. Competition among landowners will re duce royalty. A tax on land values only, that is the single tax, will produce com petition. This competition must open new fields of employment at more favor able terms to labor and capital, lessen competition among workmen and in crease the reward for labor. When a tax is collected from the value of laud, the owner will endeavor to find * some one to use it in order to pay the tax. Unlike ataxon houses or breakers, it will stay where it is put and cannot be shifted. A tax on breakers or machin ery must he put on the consumer unless he is already paying what the traffic will bear, otherwise it will be considered I an expense and deducted from the | wages. If the miner takes any interest in the land question, he will find that it is very closoly connected with the fundamental question of getting a living. He will see that this royalty which is given to landlords lowers wages and de prives the state of its proper source of | revenuo in supporting muncipal and county government. lie will see rents raised, price of goods increased, manufactures crushed in order to make up this deficit for some autocratic landlord, who is ready to shout for militia at the first signs of dis content among the people. It probably would be interesting to ask—why is it that those landlords can exact so high t a tribute as 35 or 40 cents on a ton of " coal, while they expect a miner to face danger, fear poverty, to be haunted by want and the fear of want, for a smaller j recompense. A very unfair distribution of the re sults of this industry; but to be plain, it is no better than can be expected under | the conditions, nor no better will it ever be under the same conditions. Wages in any industry are fixed, not by the value of the product, but by what labor can get at any other opportunities that might be opened for it. It is the difference between what labor is worth and what they are paying for it that makes millionaires out of capitalists. The question of raising wages resolves itself into: How can the opportunities for labor be increased? To reduce wages to the point of starvation; shut out all opportunities from labor so that he who has employment to give will find droves of men begging for work at any terms which will yield the means of a bare subsistence. Don't jump to the conclusion that you can solve this by restricting immigration. It is a false light held out to deceive workmen in order to think something, to say something or to divert their at tention from the real evil. Should they ever feel disposed to do something to take advantage of the benefits, they will see the light promptly extinguished by some Christian gentlemen, who feel that they have the license to preach charity and practice inhumanity. There is more talk to-day of keeping out the pauper labor of Europe than there was thirty, forty or sixty years ago—simply because in those days land was to be had for nothing all over the country, and to-day it is practically all monopolized. The more laborers come to this country from Europe or that are born in the country, the more difficult it will be henceforth to get a living. Wealth will be increased with increase of population and labor-saving machinery, but wages will be reduced. There is more facility by machinery for getting coal out of the ground, preparing it for shipment and transportation than in 1875 when wages were high, but these advantages accrue more and more to monopolies and make it harder for the miner and merchant to 0 (Continued on Page 4.) FREELAND WILL CELEBRATE. Columbus J>ay to le Properly Observed by the People of Tlilh Place. Columbus Day, October 21, will not pass unobserved by Freeland. Prepara tions were commenced yesterday for a grand ce:ebration. A meeting was held by representatives of the Catholic socie ties connected with St. Ann's church, the following delegates attending: St. Patrick's Beneficial Society—Ed ward O'Donnell, James Harkins, John H. O'Donnell. St. Ann's T. A. B. Society—Condy O'Donnell, J. J. Powers. Young Men's T. A. B. Society—John J. McMenamin, Frank McGroartv. Geo. W.Faltze. St. Ann's T. A. B. Pioneer Corps- John B. Hanlon, James P. McNelis, James Quinn. The delegates organized by electing Condy O'Donnell chairman and John J. McMenamin secretary. It was decided to hold a grand parade, the time of which will be decided upon later. A committee was appointed to invite all the organizations of this vicinity to participate in the -celebration. The route of parade and other details will be arranged during this week. John B. Hanlon was elected grand marshal. In the evening an entertainment will be given at the opera house bv the members of the C. Y., M. Literary Institute. The city of Wilkes-Barre is preparing for a great celebration on the anniver sary of the discovery of America, Octo ber 21. The affair will be under the auspices of the Red Men, and they will be assisted by all the organizations in that vicinity. One of the leading fea tures will be a representation on the river bank of the landing of Columbns. Hazleton also has its committees out fixing up a programme for the exercises to be held the same day. All the soci eties of every denomination will take part in the celebration. Scranton will have a large parade of the Italian societies of the coal regions, after which a monument to Columbus will be unveiled. Governor Pattison has promised to be present at the exer cises in that city. An excursion from here to Scranton will be run on that day. Throughout the entire nation the day w ill be observed in a patriotic manner. llootliH at the Fair*. The management of the Northern Columbia and Southern Luzerne County Fair Association hold its annual fair a't Berwick, commencing on Wednesday and continuing until Saturday. Arrangements have been made to have voting booths at the fair on Thurs day, Friday and Saturday, with two men on duty, to show the workings of the new ballot law. As an educator this will be of wonder ful benefit. In Yermont and in Maine a few weeks ago thousands of votes were lost to both par-ties because of the ignor ance of the new method of voting. The placing of booths on the grounds and holding mock elections is being done at all the agricultural fairs throughout the state. The farmers will be given a fine opportunity to experiment with the new law, and if they take advantage of I it they will lose but few voteson election day through improperly marked ballots. Sotne similar plan should bo adoped in the cities and towns of the state, in order to give those who cannot attend fairs a chance to become familiar with the new method. If the leaders of both parties in each district would get together some arrangement could be made to give the people lessons in voting. The Wound Was Fatal. John Shigo, who was shot on Thurs day morning by the accidental discharge of his gun, died the same evening at 8.30 o'clock. No further information j than what was already given could be learned regarding the manner in which 1 the accident occurred. Mr. Shigo was one of the leading Hungarian citizens of this vicinity, and l was constantly working to elevate his ■ fellow-countrymen in such respects as would make of them good Americans. It was largely through his efforts that the church of that nationality, now being erected at Ridge and Luzerne streets, was started. A wife, three sons and five daughters survive hiin. The funeral took place on Saturday morning. Requiem mass was read at St. Kasimer's church, after which the remains were interred at St. Ann's cem etery. Tiger*' Picnic. On account of the cold wave the picnic of the Tigers Athletic Association was taken to the opera house on Saturday evening, and a pleasant time was had by all who attended. Quite a sum was net ted by the affair, and it will be expended in fitting up the organization's building on Walnut street. '1 lie committee of arrangements return the thanks of the associatibn to the young ladies who assisted at the standß, De lerro s orchestra, the St. Patrick's cor net band and the public in general for their assistance and patronage. Debate Postponed. The debate between the literary so ciety of Green liidge and the society here, which was to come off at Scranton on Friday evening, has been postponed indefinitely, as the Lackawanna people were not prepared to uphold the protec- I tion side of a tariff argument. The Free- I land society is open for a challenge to ' debate the question of "Free Trade or . Protection" with any organization in the state. PLEASURE CALENDAR.

FREELAND, LUZERNE COUNTY, PA., OCTOBER 3, 1892. DRIFTON ITEMS. On Saturday No. 1 slope was the scene of another fatal accident, and as on many former occasions, not only in Drifton but'elßewhere, it but proves con clusively that the majority of the foreign element are all right in many respects to work in the mines, but they do so at the peril of their lives when they under take to handle cars there. On Saturday last Mike Barno, an Austrian, was sent by the driver to open a door and fix a pair of latches at the foot of a heavy grade in No. 1. After doing as he was told he notified the driver to start a car down the grade. Close to where Barno stood was a gas pumping engine, and with the noise of the pump he failed to hear it coming. As he was standing in the middle of the track the car struck him with great force and injured him so badly that he died the same night. It is said some of his friends are indignant over his death and propose to resort to legal measures. A large delegation from this place spent a few days at the Allentown fair last week. The cold wave which struck here on Saturday night gave us a glimpse of the first ice of the season. We were in unusual good luck last week. The collieries worked full time. All employes of this company received what little pay was due them on Thurs day. Kdward Brogan resigned his position in the foundry, and has gone to Wilkes- Barre, where he has secured work with increased wages and a chance of promo tion. John Harrison, an old and respected citizen of No. 2, will move his family to Wilkes-Barre this week, and intends making his home there for the future. Misses Sadie Brennan and Mary Boyle, of Freeland, enjoyed a drive through town yesterday. Misses Shanahan, of Pittsburg, and Miss Kelly, of New York, are visiting at the residence of their friend, Miss Rose Carr. Mrs. Geo. McGee and Mrs. David Jones, of Upper Lehigh, were visiting friends here last week. D. J. Kennedy was all smiles last week. A baby girl has come to stay in the family. If there is one thing more than an other that the young men of this place take great interest in, it is the quality of brush dogs which they are in possession of. Some of the animals are perfect wonders, and their work in the brush cannot be excelled. Strangers have been here on several occasions and offered as much as eighty dollars for a single dog, but in each instance the offer was de clined. JEDDO NEWS. Yesterday several of our young men, who have been studying in the acro batic headquarters here for several months past, went in the direction of Hazle Brook in search of chestnuts. Their object was to put into practice on the chestnut trees the theory they had been studying. They wandered about the hillside, but found the trees were not suitable to carry out their intentions, and when they arrived at a small house near the tunnel, where they had a short rest which was very refreshing, thev en tertained a number of people there 'with the first two acts of a new play they are studying, entitled "Jeddo As We Find It." It will be produced in the Free land opera house in the near future. Fred Levi, one of our oldest citizens, died of pneumonia on Wednesday night. For years he hns worked in the mines here and was respected by everyone who knew him. The funeral was largely attended, services being held in St. Luke's Lutheran church, Freeland. The remains were interred in Freeland cemetery. Miss Hannah Dougherty was visiting friends here last week. Miss Kate Meehan, of Mauch Chunk, spent a few days here among friends last week. The new addition to the office which is being built is nearly completed. Miss Annie Boyle has gone to Phila delphia, where she will reside for the future. Two Hungarians engaged in a fight at this place on Friday night and during the hattlc one was seriously stabbed. The wounds are not fatal. The collieries here have gone hack to the old system of working and last week was a full one. Several of our young men who travel late at night were seriously alarmed a few evenings ago by something which they claim was in the shape of a "spook." One of them in particular as serts that what he saw looked like a woman and the garb Bhe wore was as black as night. After watching it for a few minutes it floated oil in the air, and then in a short time would be only a few yardß ahead of him again, walking quietly along the road. The young man who tells this story is not superstitious and says if he can get a companion he is j willing to try what effect a shot-gun | loaded for big game will have upon it. : The others who were known to have seen it will neither confirm or deny the story. BASE BALL NOTES.' j Yesterday the Silver Brook club and the Fearnots wound up the season at : Drifton with a game in the park. After ! the second inning all interest in the game was lost, as the home club had everything its own way and batted the ball at will. The fielding of the visitors was very poor and their errors were numerous nnd costly. At the finish of the game the score was 10 to 2 in favor j of the Fearnots. At Berwick on Saturday the Hazleton j club was badly defeated by the club the Tigers shut out on September 24. The | score was 16 to 5. Lansford was defeated, 18 to 2, by the I Pottsville Y. M. C. A. club on Saturday. A BADLY INJURED MAN. One of Muil linn's Victims Still Suing tlio Valley Company for Damage*. If James Jennings, of Minooka, whose case for damages claimed the attention of the Lackawanna county court the greater part of last week, was as badly injured in the Mud Run wreck as he claims to be, it is a wonder that he is still alive. In the opening address to the jury his attorney summed up his in juries in these words: "I believe that of the little groups of of people of which Jennings formed one, that he was the only one who survived the accident. When the crash came he was thrown forward over the back of tbe seat in front of him with such vio lence that six of his ribs were broken from the backbone, four from the chest, and his collar bone was also broken." The attorney went on to say that that young Jennings was first taken to the Wilkes-Barre hospital and later re moved to his home. His injuries con fined him to his bed for several months, and he will never fully recover from them. A vein leading from the heart burst open, and that causes him to ex perience difficulty in breathing. His eyes sustained a permanent injury, and there is a spot on the small of his back in which he has no feeling of any kind. Young Jennings, who was 19 years of age at the time of the accident, was kept upon the witness stand a great part of the afternoon, the cross-examination of Major Warren being a particularly searching one. The witness testified that he he remembered the shock which followed the accident, but remembered nothing more until he found himself at his home in Minooka. Ilis ribs and collar bone were broken and since the accident he has had great trouble with his heart. If lie walks rapidly for any distance he temporarily loses his sight, he is troubled with dizzi ness, and he often finds it difficult to keep food on his stomach. Mr. Warren attempted to show on the cross-examina tion that the boy was not injured so severely as he is trying to make out and that a part of his alleged physical trouble grows out of natural ailments. The case was given to the jury on Saturday morning, and that afternoon the jurors returned with a verdict for SSOOO for the plaintiff. The verdict was a great surprise, as five of the most widely known medical experts had testified that the plaintiff's case was a fraudulent one, for he never could have sustained the injuries he claimed he did. An hour after the verdict was render ed counsel for the Lehigh Valley Com pany moved to strike off the verdict on account of excessive damages. Judge Connolly set the verdict aside and granted a new trial forthwith on the | ground that the verdict was unconscion- I able. In doing this the court was very caustic, holding that the jury had con sulted neither the law, the evidence nor the rulings and charge of the court. The Wethers Trinl. The second trial of William Wethers, charged with the killing of John W. Davis, at Pittsion, in October last, ended on Thursday afternoon, and the jury left the court room to hrtng in a verdict. Whethers was tried last summer on an indictment charging both murder and manslaughter, and was acquitted of mu ider and convicted of manslaughter, the maximum punishment for which is twelve years' imprisonment. On the plea of his council, fienoral W. H. McCartney, he was granted the new trial, the commonwealth, as a matter of course, asking only for a verdict ol man slaughter. The jury was out for twenty-four hours when they sent a note to Judge Rice asking to be discharged, as they could not agree upon a verdict. The request was refused. The jury remained out until Saturday afternoon, when they again returned to the judge and stated they were unable to arrive at a verdict. They were dis charged. Schuylkill J u<lge*liip Fight. HOD. John W. Ryon, the independent candidate for judge in Schuylkill county, has issued an address, scoring Judge Pershing, the Democratic; nominee, charging that the Reading combine is i running Pershing's campaign, and that the Reading railroad bosses openly bought up delegates. Ryon haß organ ized a compaign committee to assist him in fighting Pershing. Sunday School Mooting. The annual meeting of the County Sunday School Association will he held in the Presbyterian church, Plymouth, on Friday, November 11. It is expected that Rev. James A. Worden, I). 1)., of the Board of Publication ami Sabbath Work, will be one of the speakers. Mrs. James Ostander, of Brooklyn, will be present to speak on primary work. Fire Company to Meet. The Citizens' Hose Company will meet on Wednesday evening. The new keys of the hose house will be distribut ed at this meeting, and every member is requested to be present to receive one. V. & It. Spotter*. An exchange says it has of late been the custom of the Reading Railroad to employ secret detectives on their trains to spy on the conductors, and as a result several conductors have been discharged without warning and without being told the reason for their dismissal. It is said that the road is experiencing consider able difficulty in getting competent men in their places. DEATHS. LEVI. —At Jeddo, September 27, Fred. Levi, aged 61 years, 4 months and 9 days.

Jlazleton also has good prospects of a water famine, and the supply there is getting smaller every day. Want a Half liolitlay. The newspapers of the state are calling upon all employers to give their men a half-holiday on November 8, in order that they may have ample time to vote properly. It should be done, as the rush that will take place at the large polls after 0 P. M. will cause numbers to lose their votes. Let us have a full vote and a fair one. Give everybody a chance to fix up his ticket according to his own sweet will, and then none of the candidates can sing "what might have been." PERSONALITIES.
