The miner feels that he should be paid for the nut coal at least, and that the size of screens should be regulated by law, so as to prevent operators from changing the size of screens during the scason they eagage to work. It is a mistaken idea that coal miners are an illiterate class. Du- ring the past three years my obser- vations in mining work have been that they are, as a rule, well posted pics and are a read- on all general t ing people; generous to a fault, and are always willing to share their last dollar with any one in distress. They watch legislative bodies in state and nation with considerable mterest and feel that their interests are not guard- ed as those of their employers, by a lobby.

The adher- ents of the non-Christian religions were 20,000, of whom 16,826 were Jews. Besides the mother tongue, thirty four different idioms were spoken. There were 22,000 civil officers of state, S3,000 military men and 2,000 members of the clergy. According to the provisions of the ministry of Public Instruction, the receipts for 1885 were calculated at 2,334-932 roubles, being an increase of 86,000 roubles as c¢ 1834.
