A Defect In the Mining Law.
From the Philadelphia Inquirer.
The Pittston Gazette directs public at
tention to a curious defect in the mining
laws of Pennsylvania. Three weeks
have now elapsed since the sixty victims
of the Twin shaft collapse were buried
alive in that ill-fated mine. It is known
that the men entered the shaft and that
they never came out. The. conclusion
that they have been killed is, therefore,
the only conclusion that a sane man
could reach. And yet, as the Gazette
shows, the coroner cannot legally pro
ceed to fix the responsibility for the
death of any or all of tlx; men unless at
least one body is recovered!
In this fact lies the reductio ad absur
dum of an idea which had for its purpose
the protection of human life, not the
protection of those who willfully or neg
ligently sacrificed it. Tho law which
insists that a body must ho found before
an iin|nest can be held was intended to
prevent the execution of anyone for
murder unless the murder was proved.
A body with the marks of violence upon
it was prima facie evidence of the killing
and justified the "crowner's quest" for
the assassin.
Obviously tho stipulation was a wise
one. It. prevented, for instance, execu
tion of any man not friendly to another
if the latter merely disappeared, and in
its time litis saved many innocent,
though suspected men. For it is easy
to understand how and why men might
suddenly disappear without dying and
nothing be beard of them, perhaps for
years, in the time when the law was
conceived.
Hut the I'ittston incident is not of
that character. Not one lias ever hint
ed that it is. The men were seen enter
ing the shaft and are know to be there
iet. The cause of their death is also
known. Only the responsibility is to
be fixed. Surely to take the ground
that nothing iu that direction can be
done because no body has been found is
not that perfection of reason which is
said to belong to the law. It is the per
fection of nonsense. Where, as in this
ease, there is no doubt of tho killing
there should be a means to bring the
responsible parties to justice at the
earliest possible moment.
Strong Platform anil Strong Candidate.
The platform adopted by the Demo
crats of tin; fourth district is not a
lengthy document, hut it contains a
great ileal more sound logic than the
general run of such political proclama
tions. Moreover, it thoroughly represents
the sentiment of tho party in the dis
trict. and does not contain a line which
cannot he accepted by every Democrat.
It speaks plainly upon the live issues of
the day, and there are neither straddles,
juggles nor quibbles indulged in.
When it is considered that tho plat
form, as a whole, was adopted by the
representatives of the party without a
dissenting voice, and was followed by
the selection of a man who stands
squarely upon it and gives his pledge to
support it. the Democracy of the dis
trict can confidently appeal to the j
voters for support of the nominee.
Mr. Long possesses elements of
strength which bring his election with
in the hounds of possibility, and these,
with the solid support of tho party
which the delegates, by nominating him.
assured him of receiving, make him a
candidate for whom an aggressive con
tost. can be waged.
With Mr. Long as representative
there is every reason to believe that the
interests of all classes of people in
lower Luzerne will be taken care of at
Harrisburg honestly and ably, and
further than that no one can demand of
hi in.
Thirty-one to four was the vote on the
silver plank in the Hazleton convention
on Monday, aud even the four dissenters
did not oppose it because they are
.(gainst silver, but because they thought
'the endorsement of the Democratic
national nominees was sufficient to state
tbo position of the. Democrats of the dis
trict. The delegates, however, wanted
to leave no room for doubt as to how
they stand on the issue, and the silver
plank was inserted with cheers. The
fourth district Democracy has the proud
j distinction of being first to hold a conven
i vontion in Pennsylvania since the Chi
-1 cago convention, and their overwhelming
i ndorsement of liryan, Sewall and the.
, national platform does them honor as
' Democrats and citizens.
| The "monopolist" lias got his snout in
the public trough, und he is not inclined
jto let up. The people will he obliged to
give, him such si kick this fall that he
i will let go long enough to snatch the
1 trough away from him.— W.-Jt, Ttlphonc.
LIVE QUESTIONS.
A Series of Articles Contributed by
Advuneed Thinkers.
TRUE REPRESENTATIVE GOVERN
MENT.
When our fathers formed this gov
ernment, they intended that it should be
a purely representative government;
that the will of the people as expressed
through the ballot box should be the
supreme law of the land; that all tho
officials charged with the performance
of public functions should bo elected by
the people aud bo responsible to tho
people; that the tenure of office should
be for only limited periods, and that
the trust, and powers conferred upon
public officials should bo returned by
tlieni to the people at stated intervals.
Nothing was farther from the minds
and purposes of tho founders of this
government than the fastening upon tho
people of an army of officials whose
term of service should l>e limited only
by life or good behavior. They never
contemplated and they never made pro- ,
vision for the creation of an office hold- j
ing aristocracy fashioned after the Eng
lish system of office tenure.
Tlie people have no choice in the se
lection of the more than 100,000 offi
cials charged with the administration
of the affairs of the federal government,
and they are beginning to realize more
and more that this vast official army
does not depend upon the will of the
people for its existence, and is, there
fore, in nowise responsible to the people
for tho proper discharge of their duties,
and that the members of this army too
often show a supreme indifference con
cerning the wishes or interests of the
people whose servants they are popular
ly supposed to be.
The addition to tho civil service lists
of 00,000 federal the
present administration is neither com
forting nor reassuring to those who be
lieve with Abraham Lincoln that this
is '*a government of the ptuple, by the
people and for tho people. "
There seems to bo but one way to cor
rect the evils which are bound to flow
from the building up of an officehohling
aristocracy in this republic, and that is
to make this a truly representative,
elective form of government. This can
be done only by providing for the elec
-11. MAKTIN WILLIAMS,
tion by the people directly of all fed
eral officials from president down to
postmaster, thus making them, indeed,
the servants of the people. As the first
step toward the accomplishment of this
end, the people should, through their
state legislatures, declare:
First,—That all just powers of gov
ernment are derived from the consent
of the governed, and all rightful au
thority exercised over the people origi
nates with the people themselves.
Second.—That ftll public trusts should
periodically return to the people after
limited terms of service; that all life
tenures of office are aristocratic in their
nature and tendency and subversive of
republican, representative government.
Third.—That all public officers should
be hold directly responsible to the people i
for tho faithful and honest performance j
of their official duties.
Fourth.—That tho centralization of
the powers of the government in the
hands of one man clothes him with all
the attributes of arbitrary and despotic
rule, whether that man be called em
peror, czar, king or president, and
places in jeopardy the liberties of the
people; and the only safe and proper
mode of decentralizing so dangerous a
power is to return it to the people for
distribution by popular elections in
which the majority rules.
Fifth.—That tho government being
divided into three separate and distinct
departments—the legislative, the execu
tive and the judicial—tho just and im
partial administration of tho govern
ment requires that these departments
be kept independent of each other, and
that no person performing the duties
belonging to one of these departments
should exercise any powers legally be
longing to either of tho other depart
ments. To secure independence in each
of these departments no one department
should receive its appointment from
either of the other departments, but
each department should receive its au
thority directly from the people by a
vote of the majority of the qualified
voters and be responsible to them for
their conduct in office.
Sixth.—To this end the president and
vice president of tho United States
should bo elected by tho direct vote of
the people unincumbered by the ma
chinery of tho electoral college.
United States senators should be
elected by the direct vote of the peoplo
of their respective states.
Judges of the United States supreme
court and the judges of the inferior
courts should be elected by the qualified
voters of their respective circuits aud
districts.
Tho United States marshals, district
attorneys, clerks of the federal courts
and internal revenue officers should be
elected by the qualified voters of their
respective districts.
Seventh. —As the most effective
means of destroying the immense power
of public patronage used aud controlled
by presidents to perpetuate the power
j of their parties tho <0, OOP postmasters
j in the United Stub's should be elected
I by tho people of well defined districts
j who are served by the mails.
Eighth.—That tho people of tho or
ganized territories should elect the ex
ecutive, judicial and ministerial officers
of their respective territorial govern
ments.
Let those demands in the form of
memorials from state legislatures be
presented to congress, and there can be
little doubt as to their being put into
effect by our federal legislation.
This will give the people of the Unit
ed States real representative government
and the only civil service reform that
ought to have a place in any system of
Republican government.
H. MARTIN WILLIAMS.
THE SINGLE TAX -WHAT IT WILL DO.
Single Taxers advocate tho abolition
of all taxes that arc now levied oil in
dustry and tho products of labor and ap
propriating instead the rent of land to
defray the necessary cost of government.
The rent or annual value of land is
caused by growth of population and the
industry, thrift and enterprise of the
community, and as government is for
the whole people it is just and necessary
that government expenses should be de
frayed from a value which the whole
people create by their presence.
If the single tax was adopted—
It would lower rent.
It would raise wages and shorten the
hours of labor.
It would encourage tho starting of in
dustries.
It would equalize access to natural
opportunities.
It would thereby benefit everybody
except land speculators as such.
It would compel investments in im
provements, for every person owning
any of those various forms of natural
opportunities embraced under the gen
eral term of land would cither have to
use the same by the employment of la
bor, sell for whatever price could be ob
tained or abandon it to others. With
unused agricultural, mining and build
ing lauds accessible t-o those willing to
put it to use, there would be no lack of
employment, and wages in all industries
would rise to their natural level—tho
full earnings of labor.
It would as a result abolish involun
tary poverty and the greed, intemper
ance and vice that spring from poverty
and tho dread of poverty, for involun
tary poverty is caused by lack of em
ployment, unsteady work and low
wages.
Wo hold: That this world is the crea
tion of God. The men brought into it
for the brief period of their earthly lives
are the equal creatures of his bounty,
tho equal subjects of his provident care.
By his constitution, man is beset by
physical wants, on the satisfaction of
which depends not only the maintenance
of his physical life, but also the develop
ment of his intellectual and spiritual
life. God has made the satisfaction of
these wants dependent on man's own
exertions, giving him the power and
laying on him the injunction to labor.
God has not put on man the task of
making bricks without straw. With
the need for labor and the power to la
bor he has also given to man the ma
terial for labor. This material is land—
man physically being a land animal,
who can live only on and from land
and can uso other elements, such as air,
sunshine and water, only by the use of
land. Being the equal creatures of the
Creator, equally entitled under his prov
idence to live their lives and satisfy their
needs, men are equally entitled to the
use of land, and any adjustment that
denies this equal use of land is morally
wrong.—Henry George in "Tho Condi
tiou of Labor.''
ANARCHY OF THE UPPER AND LOWER
CRUSTS.
There are several kinds of anarchy.
One is the anarchy of brutality, murder
and of annihilation.
Another is virtually the same with
the difference that its partisans commit
their unworthy deeds under cover of
law. Both are equally destructive and
botii have the same end in view.
The former is practiced by monsters
who, being ignorant of the real cause
underlying the evils whioli affect tho so
cial body, believe that the only way to
rectify existing injustice is by resorting
to means malignant and outrageous.
The latter kind of anarchy is emulat
ed by plutocrats and all others who en
joy exclusivo privileges of whatever
kind or degree.
Unlike its less refined brother, it grat
ifies its desires with a finesse, with an
affected bonhomie and an "I am holier
than thou" expression of countenance
that evcu its victims are apt to believe
that something else than this polished,
genteel and dignified appearing mass of
virulence is the cause of all the ills from
which the body politio suffers. The
lower stratum commits murder, theft
and arson.
The upper crust of anarchy, with and
by sanction of human enactments, robs
the masses of all save enough to exist
and to reproduce. It makes paupers,
criminals and harlots. It promotes vice,
drives people to suicide and fills insane
asylums. It evicts the poor and tho un
fortunate, cheats the widows and the
orphans, and it waxes fat on the misery,
the degradation and tho immorality of
those whom it despoils.
The remedy?
Not brute force, not strikes and boy
cotts.
Neither will a trust in Providence nor
a belief that tlie # waysof Providence are
past finding out result in the abolition
of anarchy in its various forms.
People should vote for principles and
not for men. They should vote accord
ing to their convictions and not accord
ing to the amount of "soup" provided
for and by venal individuals.
Exclusive privileges! to a few and
equal misery to all the rest is the breed
ing ground of anarchy. The application
of the law of equal freedom will forever
abolish ull objectionable anarchy.
