The time is propitious to agitato these questions bidore it is too late, and see if some-thing cannot be done to save our coun-try and institutions from the peril that menaces them.

The inter-slat- e coin Ttuioti of millers and operators came to an inharmonious end suddenly last evening. After a tierce battle of words and opinions, further talk was declared prolitless, and an adjourn-ment made siuc die. 'This action means practically that the interstate agree-ment has been abolished. It als means that seventy-liv- e thousand mine workers in the Ohio and l'ennsyluania regions will stop work on tho 1st of May. affecting ."iOO.OOO people directly ami hundreds of thousands indirectly. As the mine workers of the country will ' also demand the. eight-hou- r day, a con-tinuation of work after May 1 now seems almost impossible. Two great organizations, the knights of labor and (he federation of labor, are back of the men, and their money wiil bo at their disposal. W. P. Rend of Chicago, was the only one of the operators favoring the eight-hou- r day. The others said, in sub-stance, that they could not stand it; that the cost of production would be hi- - created by it. etc. After the. adjournment of the confer-ence tin: miners held a meeting and de-cided to demand an advance on May 1 equivalent to 10 cents per ton, nn a oa-sis of the cinht.-hou- r day, failing which a strike will follow. Some of the leaders of the miners stated they were satisfied that the rail-roads of tho com. try were back cd tho operators in their light against tlio eighr-lnm- r mowmont; that the. light would extend to the railroads also. The operators, in a geueral way, conceded that sonic western roada were support-ing the iight against eight hours, but denied any concerted move. The I'nion a Conspiracy. MoNTi'KLiKit, Vt., April 10.
