THE DEMANtaJIONftL ISSUES OF THE - n'y S'tefrt Concessions Ask- ed Beynd 0flFer of the Operators. If Latter Do nor Agive Ar- v bi t ration Proposed. Pay Day and Company Stvra Question Passed Over. Meeting of the Operators Will be Held Immediately. CONVENTION RESULTED MORE PEACEEFUL PROPOSALS THAN WAS GENERALLY EXPECTED AND S ETTLEM NT OF STRIKE MAT FOLLOW SOON. Scran tan, Oct. 13. The Mine Work ers convention aajournea tnis aiter- noort after adopting1 a series of resolu tions embodying1 the conditions under which miners agree to accept the op erators' offers of ten per cent. ad vance, ine resolutions provide xnat the operators must continue the pay ment of the advance until April 1, 1901, and abolish the sliding scale in Schuyl kill and Lehigh regions, making the scale stationary at ten per cent, above the present basis of price. Should this proposition prove unacceptable the resolutions propose that all questions at issue be submitted to an impartial board of arbitration. In conclusion the resolutions recommend there b3 no resumption of work until these propo sitions are accepted. The questions of semi-monthly pay and abolishing company stores were passed over, it being decided that rem edies for both are found in the laws of Pennsylvania and efforts may be made to see that they are enforced. None of the operators' views could be ascertained tonight, as many of them are in New York attending a conference, and others are noncommit tal. It is generally believed, however, that the slight concessions asked for will be accepted. It is generally un derstood that a meeting of operators will be held at once. LEAGUE GAMES YESTERDAY. .

'GLEftW Senator Pritchard's Senator Pritchard in his speech at Jonesboro-, Tenn., dis cussing national issues, a portion of which apeared in yesterday's Gazette, said: In 1896 Mr. Bryan said that the para mount issue was the free and unlimited coinage of silver at the ratio of 16 to 1, and that there could be no improve ment until his theory was adopted. Now that we have seen a general im provement in every branch of industry ard have witnessed an increase in the circulating medium that is phenomenal we are forced to the conclusion that M . Bryan Was mistaken in 1896. In order to divert attention from the many inaccurate statements that were made by the leaders of the democratic party four years ago we are gravely informed that a new issue has arisen, and that it is paramount to all others. In1896 the cry of 16 to 1. was raised for the purpose of diverting attention from the fact that the enactment of the Wilson- Gorman tariff law had resulted so dis astrously for the business interests of the country, and now that we hav had a complete reversal of our economic policy and the re-enactment of republi can legislation along the lines of pro tection, whidh has produced such fa vorable results, we are again invited by our democratic friends to follow after them in the consideration of a question which in reality does not exist and about which there has been so much misrepresentation. It is well enough for the American people to bear in mind at all times that at each period in the history of our country when we have sufferd in consequence of unwise legislation, that in nine cases out of ten was attributable to unfriendly tar iff legislation, while on the other hand you may take any period that you will in the history -of this nation wherp'n we have had great prosperity, and y i will find that back of ic was sound, wholesom protective tariff lecTs1 Hon .

It is false . . j , u,nvi tllC most vicious political principle that has ever cursed the country." Here is a statement as to the mean ing of which there ran Ha versy. Mr. Bryan denounced the tar iff because of its protective ffturw He voted for the adoption of the Wil son-Gorman tariff bill, a measure which resulted in bringing about more disas ters and demoralization in this country man any measure that has been pass ed since the civil war. If he was cor rect in 1894 in saying that protection vicious political principle," is it was a not fair to assume that if he should be elected president of the United States among other things it would be his du ty as an honest, conscientious man to use all means in his power to secure a repeal of the existing tariff legislation and the enactment of a law which has free trade for its object? Are the American people prepared for such a result? If they art it is their duty to vote the democratic ticket: while, on the other hand, if we should decide that it is best to let well enough alone and that we should strive to maVa permanent the conditions that now ob tain throughout the country, it is the duty of all citizens to vote the republi can ticket. This is a clean -cut rnrono- sition which cannot be evaded and must be met squarely by the Ameri can people. The views entertained bv Mr. Bryan with respect to the princi- pies of protection are sufficient to cause us to view with alarm the possibility S3 ws. u iz IBaldwin's iCrab Apple Cream la am excellent application for chap ped hands rough skin and all in flammatory condition requiring a cooling, soothing application.

DISCUSSED Speech at Jonesboro. of democratic ascendancy in the na tion. Our democratic friends seek to raise an issue by alleging that the republi can party is in favor of t'ae trusts, and that they, on the other hand, are in fa vor of legislating so as to prevent un lawful combinations. The republican party has always been in favor of leg islating so as to prevent the creation of unlawful combinations. A republi can congress enacted the Sherman anti-trust law, and in almost every state wherein the republicans have been in control they have enacted legislation along the same line. A few months ago, speaking at the Chicago anti-trust conference,, Mr. Bryan said: "I BELIEVE THAT CONGRESS HAS, OR SHOULD HAVE, THE POWER TO PLACE RESTRICTIONS AND LIMITATIONS, EVEN TO THE POINT OF PROHIBITION, UPON ANY CORPORATION ORGANIZED IN ONE STATE THAT WANTS TO DO BUSINESS OUTSIDE OF THE STATE. I AM IN FAVOR OF AN AMENDMENT TO THE CONSTITU TION THAT WILL GIVE TO CON GRESS POWER TO DESTROY EV ERY TRUST IN THE COUNTRY." Thus Mr. Bryan, in plain and un equivocal language, admits that con gressional legislation is the only meth- l od by which we can effectively deal with this question. It is admitted by the best lawyers of the country tha 1 it is necessary that we should amend ! the constitution of the United States ' so as to empower congress to pass Ieg- . islation that will apply to every state : alike, and being anxious to give the people relief in this particular, the re publicans of the house of representa fives prepared the following amend ment to our-constitution: "ARTICLE XVI. "Section 1. All powers conferred by this article shall extend to the several states, the territories, the District of Columbia c-.uu all territory under the si vrerejgniyadJ-t-biect to the juiisdic tion of the Uaited States. "Section 2. Congress shall have rower to define, regulate, prohibit or dissolve trusts, monopolies or combina tions, whether existing in the form of a corporation or otherwise. , "The several states may continue to , exercise such power in any manner not i in conflict with the laws of the United j States. "Section 3. Congress shall have i power to enforce the provisions of this ! article by appropriate legislation." J The attitude of the democratic party ! with respect to the control of trusts is j clearly indicated by the vote which was had on the foregoing amendment in the house of representatives on the first day of June, 1900. There were 154 yeas, of which 150 were republicans, and there were 122 nays, of which 130 were democrats and populists. Thus - the resolutionfailed to pass, owing to the fact that a two-thirds vote is required on a proposed constitutional amend ment; and for its rejection the demo cratic members are responsible. If Mr. Bryan is anxious to secure the adoption of his theory with respect to the trust question it is necessary that he should do some missionary work among the democratic members of congress. The republicans are ready and willing to meet Mr. Bryan on the half way ground in nis efforts to sup press unlawful combinations, and he has only to secure a sufficient number i of democrats to give us a two-thirds majority in the house of representa tives in order that our constitution may be amended so as to enable us to effectually suppress any such combina tions that may be in existence. It is not every combination of capital that is an unlawful one, because without combinations of capital it would be impossible to develop the wonderf'-l resources of our southern country, Watson & Reagan S.

P v - STARTS F03 f.'.PETOWN His Mibsioa Smpiifid by the Recent Elections Possible Cabinet ChaDges. London, Oct. 13. Twq events today mark the opening of Salisbury's gov ernment under the new parliament. Sir Alfred Milner starts for Capetown to initiate civil administration for the Transvaal, and Salisbury and Balfour received visits at the foreign office from influential party advisers. Re cent elections simplify Sir Alfred's mission, as there is now no opposition to his policy of establishing a crown colony with an administration similar to that of Ceylon and the West Indies until the elective elements share in the control. His temperament is anti military, and it is certain that he will seek the quickest relief from the present irritating incompetence of junior officers holding magisterial po sitions. The second event, that of Salisbury's visitors, gives a clue of possible cabi net changes. Those who expect sensa tional reorganization will be disap pointed. Lord George Hamilton, the present secretary of state for India, may be transferred to the admiralty, and Lord Lansdowne may be trans ferred from the war office to the India office. In that event, Right Hon. Wil liam Hanbury, financial secreta. y of the treasury, will be promote 1 to fce minister of war. nOCSlVhll DENOUNCES GSEBSIISM AT LCUISVilL Rowdies at Elizabethtown Attempt to Break up Meeting Louisville, Oct. 13. Roosevelt has had a peaceful tour of Kentucky today, except at Elizebathtown, where a band of rowdies attempted to 'break up the meeting. The other meetina-s were quiet and not ma"ked by an extreme display of feeling either way. The audiences were small in the towns where Bryan and Beckham had large crowds. In Louisville, however, con siderable enthusiasm was shown, and over 3,000 heard the governor denounce Goebelism. B'D BRANDY SEIZURE. EfVLue Officers Take Possession Org! Orey's Rectifying House. cf Salisbury, Oct. 13. One of the big gest seizures on record in this county was made last night by T. C. McCoy, P. H. Thrash and J. C. Freeman of the revenue force. The articles seized were four horses, two mules, three covered wagons, twelve barrels (550 gallons) of brandy and D. L. Arey's rectifying house. The officers had an intimation that there would be some illicit spirits de livered on these premises last night and the officers laid in wait in the bushes. About 8 o'clock three wagons drove up and began unloading at Mr Arey's rectifying house. The officers pounced upon the whole outfit, seizing the teams, brandy and rectifying house. The drivers fled to the woods. None of the barrels had stamDS on them. It is thought that the teams came from Davie county. A NEW LOT OF JARDINIERES AND BRIC-A-BRAC, VERY RICH IN COLOR AND DESIGN.

London, Oct. 13. There is. reason to believe that the foreign office yester- joay received satisfactory news from Jr-eltin, indicating the early return of the emperor and court to the capital, while the dowager empress remains at Singan Fu. If this is correct it means also that the emperor has plucked up courage to arrest Tuan and drag him to Pekin fr publij execution. Salisbury is still silent as to hie Chi nese policy. The country has resign ed itself and is expecting a somewhat inglorious position there. TO RESCUE FOREIGNERS. Pekin, Oct. 10. Li Hung Chang has arrived here. An expedition of 4.009 British, Germans, French and Italians leaves for Paoting Fu tomorrow. It s expected that 7.000 men will leave Tien Tsin for the same point at the same time. The purpose is to dis lodge the Boxers and iv-scue a band of foreigners supposed to he there. Two American staff '"V' will ac company the expedition. THREATENING CONDITIONS. Berlin, Oct... 13. A Shanghai de spatch says that foreign g-ar isons have been strengthens !, owina to the threat ening conditions in the southern provinces. Tien T.-in despatches say that the expedition to Paoting Fu is regarded as a strategic movement on Singan Fu, and will be followed by another from Hankow to cut off the capital from the sources of supplies. The rebels have massed 10,000 men in Szechunan and are marching towards Huchon Fu. It is reported that thev have been victorious over Admiral Ho, who lost forty killed and many prison ers. Six cities in Wachau prefecture have been occupied by the rebels and the situation is serious. BURGLARS BLEW OPEN A SAFE AT SALUDA Robbed the Store of R. L. Garren of Cash and Escaped. Special to the Gazette. Saluda, X. C, Oct. 13. Last night some professional safe blowers went into the store of R. L. Garren and blew open the safe and stole therefrom $167 and some other money belonging to the postmaster, private funds. This is one of the most daring robberies that has ever been committed in this section of the country. They drilled a hole and blew the safe door into fragments. There were a, lot of checks in the safe, amounting to $85, which the thieves left exposed in front of the safe. They entered the store by using a key which fitted the front door. No trace as to the thieves' identity has yet been discovered.
