To etnpioves of labor evervwhere : Hands off. There are many wnvs, says the Chleniro Jtr, of giving a worl.'inau to understand that he w.ll full under the severe displeas ure of the mau who pwvs him waireB unless he votes for tho candtuutes of a certain party. That many votes are t litis influenced at every Presidential election Is certain. Not a few employes feel that a vote for their candidate is a small return for the wages paid to t he men who rusts it But the mau has already earned tho wapes by his labor. He did not sell his convictions along with the work of hi ImndH. They are still his own, aud the employer has no right to substitute commands for them. The employer may say to himself : "I prefer to give work to men of my own party. Any employe of mine who Is not Willing to vote as I do should rind sompbodv to pay him wages who agrees with him m politics." Tills may looli reasonable to him, but he would surely object to any attempt on the part of men who do not accept his Iolltiral faith to uvoid all transactions with him. It would be just as proper for a work man to refuse to buy u pair of shoes from Ins store or a bushel of potalues from hit farm because of his politics, a for him for the same reason lo refuse to retain that workman in his employ. It is re per t-u t hut men have hen dis charged recently by a sireet-ruiiwuy com pany of New York for declining to join a Harrison and Morton club. 1 his is a sum pie of the political intolerance which is to be found lu many localities and among many excellent citizens of both parties. Trying to force a man to vote n ticket against his will is bud business, whether enguged in by street car companies or church deacons, it ought to be slopped, Tli Hum Murknl. Tlie high taxeri are administering home market talk lu the farmer in big does. Ono dose of It l?;ey administer In their plat form, wherein they suy they "would effect all needed reduction of tbo National rev enue by such revision of tho tariff laws as will tnd Ui uhavk imports uf su- h articles as are produced by our people." They seem to moan to have the farmer understand by this that tbey would give hnu the homo market to himself by keeping out foreign products, Now, suggests tho China iro Tttnrt, let 1 ha farmer consider a few facts before he swal lows this. With the excepl km ui tea, coflee, sugar, and soma articles which our 1 armors do not produce ut all, or oulv In small quan tities, our imports are nut farm products to any considerable extent, Tho furmer, therefore, hoe the home market pioity mueii to himself now. But he furninhee more than TO percent, of nil our exports. In the census year the totul value of our farm product wus id, 'JltM(t,JH. Of this total tMb.-iTtUlM, or nearly lio per eeut, was exported. This surplus above tho home demand was nearly 26 per cent, of his totul product, Now if ho nad oeen connneu to the homo nmrkot what would ho huve got for tins extra per cent, that the homo murket didn't j want! And how would the value of his to- 1 tal product huvo been affected if he hud glutted the home murket with a surplus of 23 per cent above the demand? And as ho himself consumes about oue-hulf of his product he may Jud'o for himself ubuut bow much his homo market would have to bo enlarged iu order to absorb his 26 per cent, surplus at remunerative prices. He would do well to ponder such fuels as theso befora swallowing the "luuguutiu" talk he bears about the home market.

The flr&t mention of tho dis covery of coal in the United St:it: Is by Hennepin, who mentions lindinjj it in Illinois' when on his travel from the great lakes to the Mibniaslppl, at or near the place now known a Ottawa. Father La hulle doc not take muh stock in many of the reports of Hen nepin us-put down In his discoveries, but the result has shown that In this instance, at least, tho truth was record ed. It is is put down as a "cole" mine. Colonel William Byrd, in his history of Virginia, tell of its discovery in that State in the year 1701. being found In what le known as the Richmond basin, although it was not until 17a0 that it was worked for sale and use. Anthra cite was used during the revolutionary war at Carlisle. It whs transported from Susquehanna, from the vicinity of Wilkes bur re. tn Hat boats. As a com mercial venture, however, it was not of any moment until when the ilrot dial was sent by the Lohih canal, in 1H-J3 by the Schuylkill canal, and in 1X29 by the Uolaware und Hudson cunul.

Wo can best answer this question by giving the value at tho initial point of production, as the price varies with the riHtanca from the mines.

In the early stages of Kumuii history there Is reason to believe that the Uoinan wife was completely under the control of her husband. The Komati idea of a family made the father a des pot, with power of life and death over his children, who could do nothing without his consent. This was the ca-e in regard to the male children, even after they had reached a considerable ape. Women, accordingto the opinion of the early Romans, were always chil dren. They required protection and guidance during; their whole life, aud could never be freed from despotic con trol. Aoeordingly, when a Roman girl married, she hod to choose whether she would remain under the control of her father or pass into control, or, as it was called, Into the hands of her hus bsnd. U Is likely that In the enrlv ages of the elty she alwuys passed from the power of her father into the hands of her husband, and thp position she occu pied was that of a daughter to her hus band. She thus became entirely sub ject to him, and was nt his mercy, lloman history supplies mnny instances of the despotism which husbands exer cised over their wives. The slightest indiscretion was sometimes punished by death, while men might do what they liked wtthout let or hindrance. If you were to oatoh your wife." woe the law laid down by Cato the Censor. in an act of infidelity you would kill her with impunity without a trial; but if she were to oatoh you she would not venture to touch you with her finger, and, Indeed, she has no right. " Wives were prohibited from tastinc wine at the risk of the severest pfciml ttes. The conduct of Ignatius was praised, who, surprising hit wife In the act of sipping the forbidden liquor, beat her to death. The same sternness appears in the reasons which induced some of the Komans to dismiss their wives. Susploious (iallus dismissed his because she appeared in the streots without avell.

Hat lib News "OOCTOHINC OLD TIME. A Striking Picture A Revival of 0M Tims Simplicities. In one of Harper's issues is given a very lino IlliifUration of KobertV oele brated painting, known as "Doctoring Old Time." It represents a typical old-timer, with his bellows, blowing tho dust from an ancient clock, wltu us cords ami weights carefully secured. One of these clocks In this generation is appreciated only as a tare relic. The miggo.Htivo name, "Dootorfug; Old 1 hue," brings to onr mind anoth er version of the title, used for anotb -r purpfwe, "Old Time Doctoring." We learn, through a reliable source, that ono of the enterprising proprietary medicine lirms of the noun try. has been for years Investigating the formulae and medical preparations used in the beginning of this century, and even before, with a view of ascertaining why people in our great-grandfathers1 time enjoy od a health and physical vigor so seldom found in the present generation. They now think tber nave discovered the secret of secrete. Ihey liml-that the prevailing opinion thut then existed, "Nature has a rem edy for every existing disorder," was true, und acting under this belief, our grandparents used the common herbs and plants. Continual trespass npoa me lorest domain, baa made these herbs less abundant and haa driven them further from civilization, until they have b'.'eii discarded, as remedial a;euts because of thu difficulty of ob t lining them. H. II. Warner, proprietor of War ner's safe cure and founder of the Warner's observatory, N. Y., haa been pressing investigations in this direc tion, into the annals of old family his tories, until he has secured some very valuable formulas, from which his firm is now prepariug medicines to be sold by all druggists. They will, we Irani, be known un der the general title of "Warner's Log Culiin remedies.1 Among these medi cines will bo a 'surai-pai'illa,1' for the olood and liver, "Log Cabiu hops and bnchu remedy," for the stomach, etc., "Log Cabin cough and consumption remedy.1' "Log Cabin hair tonic," "Log Cabin extract," for Internal aud external use, and an old valuable dis covery for catarrh, coiled "Log Cabin ruse cream. " Among the list is also 'Log Cabin plaster," and a "Log Cab in liver pill." From the number uf remedies, it will be seen that they do not propose to cure all diseases with one preparation. It is believed by jiany that with these remedies a new era is to dawn upon iu tiering humanity and that the close uf the nineteenth century will see tiicse routs aud herns, u compounded, under tne title of Warner's Log Cabin remediea, as popular as they were at its beginning. Although they come in the lorm of proprietary medicines, yet they will be none the less welcome, for suderiug humanity baa become ihed of luodcru doctoring and the public has great confidence in any remedies put up by thu hnu of which tl. H. Warner is the head. The peo ple have become suspicious of the ef fects of doctoring with poisonous drugs. Eew rualuu the injurious ef fects following thu prescriptions ol many modoia physicians. These ef ieets of poisonous drugs, already piomtneut, will become more pronoun ced in coining generations. Therefore we cau cordially wish the old-fashion auw remedies the best of success.
