?laers Unanimously Decide io
Return to Work. President
Mitchell Advised This
Course.
Huntington, W. Va., Sept. 4.?It is
now believed the coal strike in West
Virginia is practically at an end. At
a mass meeting of miners from all the
coal fields along the Norfolk and West
ern railroad today it was almost unani
mously agreed to end the/strike provi d
ed the operators will take back all the
old miners?and the later have signi
fied their intention of doing this. The
miners have agreed to return to work
next Monday morning.
It is reported that President John
Mitchell of the United Mine Workers
advised the strikers to return to work,
as he realised that winter is near at
hand and the miners in this field could
not hold out much longer as almost
every one in dependent upon the uni on
-for food and clothing.
It is thought the strikers in the
North river and Kanawha fields will
soon follow the action of the strikers
on the Norfolk and Western. The
Pocahontas mine continues to burn,
but the operators think that they soon
will have it? under con troL No vio
lence has been reported from any quar
ter of the Norfolk and Western coal
fields today.
A ComineBdable Example.
A few days ago there was wreck on
the Charleston- and Western Carolina
Railroad, and promptly after the facts
were known in the office of the com
pany, the editor of The Chronicle ie
ceived a note from Supt A. W. And
erson briefly and accurately setting out
the facts and circumstances of the
accident; stating that he knew '-the
reporters would get such information
m. they vcould, front different sources,
and that he preferred frankly to give
the jnewspaper the^fa?ts.
This course is so- intelligent and
praiseworthy that we cannot forego
the pleasure of commanding it The
course is so rational that thinking men
will be surprised to hear that it is
very unusual
But it is within the experience of
every newspaper man to have been fre
quently blocked at every turn in seek
ing information- from railroad officials
about accidents on their lines. Re
porters are told by railroad attaches
that they know nothing about ac
cidents, when the reoptrer knows that
It is within the line of their business
to- know, and ignorance of the accident
is professed sometimes when all hands
are at that very moment busy getting
ready a vrrecMng train to go to the
scene of the wreck. This is baa policy.
It only mikes the reporter more de
termined, and it forces him to pub
lish rumors when it would be much
wiser on the part of the railroad to
supply htm with the actual facts.
No newsj?aper desine to injure a
railroad or any other enterprise by
the oublics.tion of erroneous state
ments. It always wants the facts,
and is.always ready to give them when
obtainaibe. If the persons who have
inexacts in their possession conceal or
withhold tftem, then ' the reporter,
whose instructions are to get the story,
is forced to use just such information
as .he can secure from other sources.
Sensible men who deal frankly with
newspaper men will bear -testimony
that it has proven the wisest way.
Tb0 Chronicle desires cordially to
thank Superintendent Anderson fox
the admirab le example he has set. It
is only another evidence that he merits
the fine reuptation he enjoys as a saga
cious and successful railroad man.?

BAO WATER ANIS TYPHOID.
Chicago's Unhappy Experience
Philadelphia's New System of
Water Works.
For the week ended August 16
Chicago had 45 deaths reported from
typhoid fever?the largest number re
ported since daily records of deaths
have been kep in the bureau of vital
statistics. The health authorities at
tribute the prevalence of typhoid fever
in Chicago to increased water pollu
tion. Unusual oscillations of the lake
have occurred. Between thirty and
forty well-marked fluctuations have
been observed since May 1?the range
having been as much as between six
and seven feet These oscillations
serve to "milk the river out into the
lake" and* are doubtless the cause of a
greater degree of impurity in the wa
ter of the lake, from which Chicago
takes its drinking supply. The pro
blem of supplying large communities
with good water deepens in complexity
and intricacy in spite of the attention
given to it. This is due largely to the
great and- rapid growth of cities and
the tendency to overcrowding. Phila
delphia bore the evils of a polluted wa
ter for nearly a generation and is now
just about to enjoy a better system.
Leaving out of consideration the per
sons directly responsible to the admin
istration, who would hardly be willing
to express anything but favorable crit
icism, we have some independent in
formation that the work of the Phila
delphia plants, although more expen
sive than was expected, is of excellent
quality and will probably deliver a safe
water abundantly. : They are based on
the so-called slow sand filtration sys
tem, but some expedients have been
iatrouced by which the rate of filtra
tion will be greater than in some
existing plants. The great bulk of
the water will come from the Delaware
Kiver, the principal plant being at
Torresdale. The Schuylkill will con
tinue to furnish some water, especial
ly to terri tories of considerable eleva
tion. One of these districts, that of
Manayunk, has been for a few days re
ceiving the filtered, water. It is too
soon to look for evidence of the benefit
of the change, but we have no doubt
that in a few weeks the falling off in
the typhoid cases will prove the ad
vantage of the new condition.
In this regard we believe that Phila
delphia has Duilded more wisely than
either Boston or New York. The
former is arranging for an extensive
gathering ground and storage, the lat
ter has already in operation a similar
system; Both depend on collecting
enormous volumes of surface water,
impounding the same and transmitting
it by aqueducts without filtration.
We regard this as a defective method.
Surface waters are always liable to
pollution, and it is practically im
possible to protect large gathering
grounds. It is bettor to take water
near by and filter it efficiently.?Phila

The Hollatad Primrose.
There is a plant in Holland, known
as the evening primrose, which grows
to. a height of five or six feet and bears
a profusion of large yellow flowers so
brilliant that they attract immediate
attention, even at a great distance,- but
the chief peculiarity about the plant
is the fact that the flowers, which open
just before sunset burst into bloom so
suddenly that they give one the impres
sion of some magical agency. A man
who has seen this sudden blooming
says It is just as if some one had
touched the land with a wand and
thus covered it all at ODce with a gold

A Poiitician Obituary.
The following: card which appeared
in the Bishopville Leader and Vindica
tor is reproduced by request :
To my political friends of Lee coun
ty :?Gentlemen, being run down in
health by hard work when I entered
the county campaign, I could not do
myself justice, hence I deem it in or
der that I may assure you that you did
not stoop to support my name that I
give a brief resume of my history. The
paternal side of my family have had
their homes in Sumter county for a
hundred years. I entered politics in
1876 as a red shirt rider under Col.
Haskeil. I faced the opposition
again in. 1888 and at each
recurring election since. As a del
egate to the State convention of
1886, voted for a system of State pri
mary against the balance of the dele
gation. And later after many defeats
in convention ? suggested to the great
trio, Tillman, Shell and lrby, the
necessity of a fight in the open and
planned the March convention-and the
campaign which followed. All of
which proves that my every thought
was for the farmers' political interest.
No member of my family has ever
held a prominent political office. They
have always preferred a quiet home
life to the prominence of a public
career.
I offered in this campaign
from a sense of duty to those I love,
whose money is being frittered away
by the class which is congregating in
Columbia from time to time essaying
to represent us and can't. I deem it- a
moral impossibility for one class or
rather profession to truly represent the
interest of a different class or craft,
and until some change is effected we
cannot reasonably hope for any further
recognition than consent to tax our
selves locally.
To those of my acquaintances who
have seen fit to aid in ending my poli
tical life I wish to voice the hope that
they may experience the sweet gratifi
cation and satisfaction which follows
the achievement of the patriot
And to those who gave their support
to my name I want to say my gratitude
is theirs in the fullest measure) during
all the days I may yet live. And now
as my political career is ended I beg
to bid you one and all an affection
ate farewell. W. A. 'James.

The scheme involves the consolidation
of the Mexican Trust Company bank

regions and, if necessary, call an extra
