THE INDEPENDENT. THURSDAY. APRIL vt 1888 flit: COAL FIELlfS. Eihtor Ispepesdest: From notes of a visit to the coal beds of the Nehalern, I furnish you the follow ing items. So far as prospected, the foal lies iu Columbia county, in the territory between Pebble creek and Elk creek, in township 4 north, range 4 west. In this scope twentj' bix claims ha?e been located, con taining each from 40 to ICO acres. The country is Tery broken and rough, being a succession of deep ravines and steep xidges. mostly burned over, covered with fallen timber and tangled under-brush. It can be reached best by way of Archbold's mill and the oM t-tuto road, which is open for wagons within two miles of Pebble creek, and can easily be cleared of logs the remainder of the w.ay. An easy route for a railnmd crn be had lip a branch of the west fork of Dairy creek and through a low pass to Pebble; on thi line the to is very little elevation in the way of railroading. No systematic prospecting has yet been done, and nothing more than croppings have been tested; but enough is known to justify the con clusion than an immense ledge un derlies that entire tract. The crop pings show in the gulches from n trace to five feet in thickness, bitu minous coal of a good quality, pitching slightly to th north and east. Some idea of the importance of this find can be had by figuring on a three-foot ledge, which will lo found to contain over three million tons to the square mile. Thcie can be little doubt that the ; ledge i over tbree feet thick, nml that in a short time we slmll nee a railroad tapping the mine ami thousand! of miners euvichin themselves nnd the country. T.

Fact is, we feel rather moan nnr vat- f rf Itavinrr sntrnva,1 from England our broad territory ! and built up in it the grandest and moat prosperous nation on earth, j Free trade offers an excellent oppor tunity for us to return the country to its mother gradually and in such a way as not to startle the old lady by an abrupt gift, and at the same ' time our generous sons will never i suspect our treasonable motives 1 until the wheels of commere have refused to turn. The plan is a grand one, and ought to succeed in retiring the statesmen who advo cate it. Should republicans make .lude clreshaui their resit1ential caiuliilatf this year one of the few romantic stories which have found their way into American politico would doubt less piny a prominent pait iu the campaign. Thin atory is to the effect that during the war of the rebellion Gresham, then a younp; colonel under thirty, being stationed with his regiment at a post where there was no chance for any fighting. . heard the guns of one of ii.. ... ni. : before Vicksburg, and without orders inarched his men into the j -thick of it. For this breach of discipline young Hotspur was dc-j prived of his sword and put under arrest by his superior officer. I General Grant, however, on bearing ' the circumstances, placed bim once more at the head of his regiment, gave him plenty of fighting to do. and soon made him a brigadier general. It is easy to imagine what ... . . ,i . enthusiasm this story would awaken , if told in a nominating speech nt a national convention. Er. . Almost every resident of u doubt-' ful state is a politician. The in habitant of New York, Indiana, or j Connecticut feels that the fate of the republic rests on hi.s shoulders, . and also that be is equal to the emergency. A resident of Indiana in speaking recently of the nftitirsj of his state, said: "Kvrry prsi riential year results in a loss of thousands of dollars to Indiana. During any important, political rain- , paijn we neglect our business. throw 1 avsay trade, raise meager and half-; tilled crops, quarrel with our neigh bors and injure our health, merely because we get excited nnd try to save the nation iu every township : and Toting precinct. A safe repub-1 lican or democratic majority of .lO,- 000 votes would be a glorious thing for Indiana.
