Among the victims of the Plymouth epi.

cleaning up the town, nu.l doing all they
can to arrest the disease but the situation
is still alarming. Several cases arc report
ed from adjoining towns. The doctors say
the fever is not contagious.
Two of our rural exchanges of Luzerne
county have expressed their opinions ou
the journalism of this county, chaiactcriz
Ing it as sleepy. As there are few ofllces
in Columbia county that arc not larger
than both of these ofllces combined, aud
not a newspaper here that is not more
readable than either of theso patent sheets,
their weighty opinions will not go for
much. One of tho editors referred to tried
his hand here for a number of years, but as
he could not keep up with progressive
journalism he got left and had to move to
Luzerne county, whero ho has made sever-
al ventures. He probably has some grinlgo
against the papers here that crowded him
out.
Some of our exchanges report tills new
method of fleecing the young men of
some rural communities. A young mar
ried couplo travel nbout from one town
or city to another and work tho game for
all there is in it. The wife Is a handsomo
seemingly modest young lady, who in
vain seeks for work and finally in desper
ation, gives a fictitious history of her wan
derings in the West. This Is folloowed by
the announcement that she Intends to offer
herself In a ralllc for 55 a chance, and, if
so desired, the holder of the lucky number
can marry her at once. Tho unmarried
young men go wild over tho scheme, and
"for tho fun of the thing" take a number.
At this point the husband makes his ap
pearance, attends tho drawing, holds the
fortunate number, Is Introduced and re
married, nnd tho smart pair skip.

NcvNllcrn of To day.
People gcneinlly, nnd even those who
may be termed steady readers and close
observers, have but a faint conception of
the magnitude and Influence the press of
this country has attained, From a careful
examination of (he advance pages of the
18S5 edition of thu American Newspaper
Directory, Issued May 1st by Geo. P. How
ell &Co., of .New Yoik, it appears that
there aro 14,147 newspapers and periodicals
published In the United States and Canada;
of these the United Slates has 12,073, nn
average of one paper for every 3,807 per
sons. In 1884 tho total number of news
papers was less by 823 than at piescnt, and
while the gain this year Is not so marked
ns In some previous years, It Is still consid
erable. Kansas shows the greatest In
crease, the number being 78, while Illinois
follows with a gain of 77. It is curious to
notice Hint New York, the scene of so
much political activity during the last cam
paign, should have only onc-tMrd as many
papers as the State of Pennsylvania. As
an index to the comparative growth and
prosperity of difterunt sections of the coun
try, especially the Te-rioricrs, the number
of new papers forms nu Interesting study,
and may well occupy the attention of the
curious.
Epidemic nt IMinoutIi.
INDUCED I1Y HAD BANITAl'.V CONDITIONS.
A disease resembling typhoid fever has
appeared lu Plymouth, Luzerne county.
Forty deaths have occurred and over 000
persons are sick. Tho disease frequently
ends in peritonitis. The doctors, thirteen
in number, are kept working night nnd
day. They have 70 to 100 cases each, and
finding that they cannot give nil proper at
tention have appealed to Hie County Medi
cal Society for aid. The distress and con
sternation among the people Is great. Near
ly all belong to the mining classes and arc
poor. In many cases whole families are
down with the disease. The epidemic, in
tbo opinion of the physicians, is caused by
tho bad sanitary condition of the place.
There is not a sewer, or paved street, or
properly constructed gutter in the town. In
the side streets, alleys and vacant lots gar
bage, offal and refuse of all kinds have ac
cumulated aud the recent hot weather has
turned those accumulations to breeders of
disease. A portion of the town derives its
water supply from wells, tho water of
which has becomo polluted by drainage
from the soil. Thirteen persons died on
Friday and fifteen on Saturday. The dis
ease mainly affects the children and in
fants, though many adults arc also attack
ed. There were nine funerals on Sunday.
Tho whole town appears to be in mourning.
Business is practically at a standstill, ex
cept the drug stores and undertaking es
tablishments. At a meeting of the borough
council It was decided to clean the streets
nllcys and back yards at once. The wnter
company of tho village having made a
careful investigation havo notified tho
council that they were supplying pure and
wholesome water, and that one chief cause
of the epidemic was that a largo portion of
tho village was supplied with water from
wells which had became polluted. A
heavy shower tell in Plymouth and Its vi
cinity early Sunday morning, and did much
towards cleaning tho lllthy streets, thus
creating a more hopeful feeling.

The road view last Saturday In the east
end of the township aroused considerable
interest. Tho majority of our citizens

the roads wo have arc kept in proper con

minedwhether it docs any good or not
to opposo efforts to construct new roads,
always incurring large expense, when the
road intended Is but in the interest of a few
individuals, and not a public necessity,aud
not for the publio good.

Thu borough question is being argued
from both sides very stiongly. Wo havo

claim that it will improve thu town, maku
It more orderly, teach the hoys to bo more
respectful, prevent tho muddy pavements
nnd make property advanco in price, and
mako the place more Inviting so that stran
gers and capitalists will Invest hero In pref.
erenco to other places, and If properly cou.
ducted not add materially to tho rate of
tax. The autl.borough party claim that It
will increase tho taxes to an alarming ex.
tent, that thcro will bo a body of oftlcers to
rulo that will compel peoplo to do things
which they think Is against all reason j
such as move houses, compel peoplo to pay
to take tho water from tho water compauy,
If they have good water lu tho wells and
pay enormous suras to survey, grade, sew

As regards tho behavior 6f children, 1 do
not think that nny set of officers can nlakc

lies with tlio parents and they nro the ones
who will be to blamo for the bad behavior,
and does it not reflect somewhat upon our
religious and educational Institutions, where
the youth nro not properly trained. Where
Is that boasted success of which wo hear eo
much in thoso Institutions ? Will the bor
otigh rid us of nil theso evils ami convert

nnd drunkenness. As regards tho increase
of property it is somowhat n doubted ques
tion whether It will lnciense it enough to

nnd ns to not increasing tho rate of tax
that It will most certainly do, for in this
ago of ours youxati not get work done for

Editohs Columman :
Dear Sir : It Is hardly ever worth while
to notice the writings of a lotnl corrcspon.
dent. This Is especially true when such a
person takes the first story ho hears with
out any inquiry as to the facts. Your cor
respondent In last week's issue says there
were several lights here last pay night and
no arrests were made. He adds that Chief
Burgess Lcnahan went into the township
the following Sunday where ho had no jur
isdiction to stop a pscudo prize fight there.
This indicates that the Burgess is loose and
careless on the ono side nnd Ignorant on the
other. Now the truth is there were no ar
rests on pay night because there was no real
occasion for them. There were a few
drunken men on the Main street but they
moved on and did not dtservo nrrest. As
to tho fight spoken of In the township wo
heard nothing of It whatever until wo read
tho Coi.uiiniAN. Tho Burgess could not
break up a light he knew nothing about
even through ignorance. Your corrcspon.
dent Is a young man, a promising ono and
a resident of Ashland. He should reflect
before writing anything to injure the repu
tation of a town to which he docs not be
long, or the character of any of its citizens,
even the Burgess If you please. Whatever
Centralia may have been in tlmo gone by.lt
is to-day, and has been for several years
back a law nbidlng nnd peaceable commu.
nity. Our citizens can compare in intelli
gence and morality with any other town of
proportionate size in tho Commonwealth.
No reasonable expense is spared In the
education of our children. The school
board nnd council nrc chosen from our
best citizens with dun regard to their com.
potency nnd Intel llgcnco.
False reports of disturbances and dlsor
der aro calculated to Injure the town, and
for this reason only we feel it our duty to
contradict them. Very Respectfully,
D. W. LsNAnAN.
Wo cheerfully insert the above, as we
are always willing to mako any corrections
when either we or our correspondents are
in error. As to the facts tn this case wc
know nothing. In publishing this letter,
however, It must not bo understood ns an
admission on our part of the Identity of our
Centralia correspondent. That is an office
secret that will bo divulged only by per
mission of that person. En.
