Secretary to Act
A Washington despatch in the St
Louis Republic dated Sept 14 says
Secretary Hitchcock is investigating
the troubles in this country arising
from coal miners strike and that an
effort is being made to settle the
matter between the miners and
operators The secretary has writ-
ten to Wm T Mitchell president of
the United Mine Workers of America
in regard to men coining from Iowa
Arkansas and other states and en-
deavouring to induce men to quit
work among other things says:
“Such proceedings are entirely
contrary to law and are calculated
to incite riot and bloodshed and will
not bo tolerated I request that you
unite with the dedartment in sup-
pressing such contemplated viola-
tions of the law ”
In answertotheabove Mr Mitchell
say: “It was our understanding
that the Constitution of the United
States guaranteed all citizens the
right of peaceful assemblage and all
meetings held and contemplated
were in accordanse with this under-
standing 1 cannot understand why
mine workers have not as much
right under the law to secure a
brass band and march to a given
point for the purpose of holding a
meeting as any other class of citizens
Howe ver I assure that our organiza-
tion will not countenance or tolerate
the commission of any overt act or
violation of the law ”
The dispatch further states that if
the troubles are not soon settled an
effort will be made to expel the
striking miners from the Territory

beer had been introduced into the
Territory before it was purchased
and brought into the Choctaw
tion

Lieut Peary is trying to reach the
north pole by the practical method
of establishing supply stations and
he continues to push on in spite of
the loss of seven toes by-freezing
He can no longer use Canadian snow-
shoes or the Norwegian ski but
there is an oblong disc serving for
travel over the snow in the Alps

tramps In other respects Peary’s
physical condition is good and his
friends are hopeful that he will
reach the pole on his next long
inarch
The biggest advertising contract
made in several years with a single
newspaper is the one just closed be-
tween Wanamaker and the Phila-
delphia Record which is for a whole
page for a year $100000 Wanama-
ker knows how he has made his
money and he follows up his old
time policy of advertising He also
gave about that sum to the Phila-
delphia Times These are consider-
ed the best papers in the Quaker
City and Wanamaker believes that
the best is the cheapest as demon-
strated by the fact that vhe pays a
man a salary of twelve thousand
dollars a year to originate and write

Presidential Campaign of 1 900
The policies of the great politi-
cal parties are now being formed
and the candidates discussed The
voice of the people as recorded by
ballot at the approaching President-
tial election will probably decide
the policy of the nation for the next
decade Every citizen must study
the great questions that are to come
before the people This can only
be done through the medium of a
great newspaper Now is the time
therefore for every voter to sub-
scribe for the best and most reliable
newspaper obtainable The Semi-
Weekly Republic covers the whole
fields of political news While it is
Democratic it publishes the news
in regard to all political parties
without prejudice Its telegraphic
and cable news service is superior
to tnat of any other paper Its
special features are the best In
fact it is the paper for that large
class of readers who cannot afford
or do not have access to the daily
papers
Attention is also called to The
Republic’s Sunday Magazine Its
half-tone illustrations are alone
worth the subscription price It is
made up of special articles by the
best literary talent embracing a
variety of subjects of current inter-
ests News features of absorbing
interests are illustrated and en-
larged upon For the benefit of the
ladies the latest fashions are hand-
somely illustrated The Republic
Sunday Magazine is always interest-
ing to every member of the family
The subscription price of the
Semi-Weekly Republic is $100 per
year The Republic Sunday Maga-
zine $125 per year Both papers
are now being offered at the very
low price of $150 for one year To
secure this low rate both must be"
ordered and paid for at the same
time

Bob Ingersoll may be poor author-
ity on religion but there is one-
tbiugin which his judgement seems
unexcelled Listen unto him:
“The one thing in this world that
is as constant as the peak that rise
above all clouds the one window in
which the light forever burns the
one star that darkness cannot quench
is woman’s love It arises to the
greatest heights and sinks to the
lowest depths it forgives the most
cruel wrongs it is perennial of life
and grows in every clime Neither
coldness nor neglect harshness nor
cruellycan extinguish it A woman’s
love is the perfume of the heart
This is the real love lliat subdues
the earth: the love that man wrought
all miracles in art that gives us
music all the way from the cradle
song to the grand symphony that
bears the soul away on the wings of
fire A love that is greater than
power and’ sweeter than life and
stronger than death ”
Chicago papers are printing ad-
vertisements of this kind: “wanted-
An able man to cook and wash for
a private family” The demand
seeme likely to be met for one who
is willing to work his way up ad-
vertises: Wanted — A position as
second girl by an honest and capa-
ble young man”
