The gentleman who characterized this as an impudent proposition went further. and made what appears to me to be an unjustifiable attack on the persons engaged in the mining of coal along the Monongahela River. He spoke of it as the region where the strikes had rcently taken place and of the coal operators as the persons responsible for the introduction of Hungarian and other pauper labor. The gentleman from New York knows a good deal. but he does not know much about the Monongahela River coal region. There is no Hungarian labor employed on the Monongahela River. nor in the mining of the coal carried on on that river.
