It does not make so much difference any
more In this County who tiny ono man is
for .or against politically, but we liko to
back up our assertions. Wo repeat what
we have ruid before, that William Krick
bnuin, the present owner of tho Sentinel,
used his Inllueubo Inst fall to secure
the diction of a republican to coun
ty olllce. He solicited democrats to vote
for Kinter, and we can name them. Two
thousand extra copies of the 6'n(ine con
taining attacks on Snyder,and urging demo
crats to vole fur Kinter were distributed
through the county, some of them by the
paid agent of Mr. Krickbaum, and wo
can name him. What Is the use of deny
ing such well known fuels 't
Wo went to press too soon last week to
give nn extended u port of the coucert for
the benefit or St. Columbia's church. The
orchestra win u'l excellent one nnd was
under the direction or Prof. II. H. Strick
1 mil formerly of this town, now of Han Is
burg. The Stilekhiud family possess tin.
usual musical talent. On the stage and
participating in the c uieert were tho father
nnd mother and three children. Miss Mc
Cann was heartily applauded. She has a
very ileur, sweet voice, and sing with
much expression, Mr. McCuun's tenor so
los were also will done. Itev. Father
Clark uxpicsM'd his thanks to the nudlenco
f"r the'r liberal pitronage. To him and
Prof. Slric'ehind the people of Illoomsburg
are indebted fi.r a rare musical treat.
A few weeks ago we stated that tho secre
tary of tho Herwick Association had inform
ed the secretary of the Columbia County
Agricultural Society that the former did not
approve of the course of the lierwlck Ga
teile and did not wish to be held repon
slble for what It said concerning tho latter
Society. To this the Gazelle, after its usual
manner, responded by a denial that the
lierwlck secretary had ever had such a
conversation with Mr. White, la other
words that Mr, White and tho editors
of tho Columiius Heel. Nearly two
weeks ago Mr. Evans was asked by letter
whether ho did have such a conversation
with Mr. White, and ho has made no re
sponse. Wo now repeat that C. C. Evans
Secretary of tho Berwick Society called at
the olllce of H. V. White, Secretary of tho
Columbia County Society nnd stated to him
voluntarily just what wo said ho did, and
that In tho presence of two witnesses. It
may bo true that Mr. Evans did not mean
what ho said to Mr. White, nnd It looks
now very much as though tho bad temper
ed attacks of tho Gazette upon tho ofllcers
of the Columbia County Society wcro In
stlgatcd by borne one who has not tho
courage to stand publicly by what he says
piivately. We do not say It Is so, but It
squints that way. Wo havo treated tho
lierwlck Society liberally and courteously,
ami iu return havo received favors from
them, und wo havo no controversy with
them, and desire noiiej but we do say this,
that unless they uro seeking a controversy
with us, they had better call off their dogs.
We repeat uguln, that tho attendance nt
tho Illoomsburg Fair was not 2000 short of
20,000, which Is pretty close to our first
rough estimate, for glvlug which the Ber
wick paper turned its dirty tongue loose
upon us.

THE COLUMBIAN VND DEMOCRAT,

TnmTT.fiv- iBAim or litigation.
Tho Longcnbcrgcr case, which, by a tie
crco.latcly entered In tho Buprcmo Court,
seems shout to bo ended, Is entitled to
moro thsn a passing notice. 'This, not on
account of tho- legal points Involved, al
though they were numerous and Interest
ing, but because of Its curious history, Its
long continuance, nnd tho connection with
It of somo of the most eminent lawyers in
tho commonwealth. Tho matter tn ills
puto was a tract of land In Heaver town,
ship, Columbia county, In tho warrantee
name of "Cathnrino Lohgcnbcrgcr," con
taining nearly 400 acres of land, nnd sup
posed to contain also, n large quantity of
anthracite coal. The land having been
sold for taxes In 1820, came by nn nrltclo
of agreement, In 1847, Into tho hands of
Charles F. Mann. Pending that, Abraham
Klnac acquired the legal title, and In 1851
lie brought ejectment ngntnst Mann and
Hoblson. William O. Hurley appeared
for plaintiff, nnd Chnrlcs It. llucknlew for
defendants. Klaso recovered. Ho and
Mann were brothers-in-law.
Mann was elected treasurer of tho Coun
ty, and Johu Fisher, Gcorgo Miller and
Qcorgo Longcnbcrgcr went on his official
bond. The commonwealth brought suit
on tills bond to November Term, 1850, Ed
ward II. llaldy for plaintiff nnd Heuben AV.
Weaver for defendants. Tho common
wealth recovered $0035.03, which with In.
tcrest nnd costs tho ball subsequently ells
charged. In 1851 Klasc and wife made and deliv
ered a deed for this "Catharine Longcn
bcrgcr" trnct to Fisher, Miller and Longen
bcrger, and gave a paper signed by Miller
which It was claimed by ono patty gave
the deed tho effect of a mortgage, which
conclusion was denied by the other party.
This little paper was proved and recorded
thirteen years afterwards.
Mcnnllmc, in 1803, William O. Hurley,
Esq., for Longcnbcrgcr et al., brought
ejectment for the binds against Dr. Hugh
W. Mclleynolds and others who claimed it
through a regular chain of conveyances
from tho original warrantee, on n warrant
of August 23th, 1703. In 1805 Simon P.
Wolvcrton purchased tho interest of Fisher
and Miller and became one of the plalu
tlffs. The ciuse was tried In May,t800 be
foro Judge Elwell, by Lyman Hakes, M.
E. Jackson and 15. Nicholson for the plain
tiffs, nnd by John B. Packer, Itobcrt F.
Clark und John G. Freeze, assisted by Ja
cob Hoffman of Berks county, for tho dc
fendants. There was judgment for the
plaintiff, n writ of error to tho Supreme
Court, and a reversal. 7 P. F. Smith 13.
The case was again tried before the same
Judge, In December, 1872, by A. Itlcketts,
M. E. Jnckson, Henry M. Hoyt nnd George
W. Woodward for plaintiffs, nnd by Sam
uel Linn, John G. Freeze and Charles It.
llucknlew for tho defendants. There was
a judgment for the plaintiffs, to which a
writ of error was taken, und the case came
on to be heard in January, 1874. Ex-Chief
Justice Thomson was concerned for the
defendants in tho argument, mid died In
the court room, within five minutes after
his opening. The case is reported In 25
Smith 13, and was affirmed. The plaintiff
having got into possession, Dr. Mcltey
nolds et al by John G. Freeze and Charles
G. Ilarklcy brought ejectment to February
Term, 1875, which was removed to the
county of Cumberland for trial was tried
by F. W. Hughes for plaintiff, nnd Mr. A.
Kleketts for defendants ; assisted severally
by some gentlemen of that Bar. The de
fendants obtained n judgment which was
affirmed by the Supreme Court, and thus
ended the contest between the Tax Title
and that of the oiiginal warrantee, the tax
title having won.
During these years of litigation coal in
considerable epiantitlcs had been taken out
sometimes by the holders of the tax title,
and then by tho Simon P. Knsc party oper
ating under Dr. Mclteynolils et al.; and on
the 27 Nov. 1874 the Longcnbcrgcr party
by A. Hicketts brought trespass for mesne
profits i John Q. Freeze nnd Charles .0.
Barkley appeared for defendants the enso
was subsequently removed to Wyoming
county for trial, where Mr. Sitzer, Messrs
Little and F. W. Hughes appeared for de
fendants, and Illckttts, Ansnrt and Mc
Ahirney f,ir plalntlil. There was llnully n
verdict for plaintiff, which was assessed
at 510,000 and remains unsatisfied.
However, while all these aforo mention
ed legal coulests were progressing, a vigo
rous controversy hud inisen between Lon
gen berger und Wolverton,the owner of tho
two-thirds of the Fisher, Miller nnd Lou.
genberger interest. Gcorgo Longcnbcrgcr
hud died, and his will was proved In An.
gust 1805-ln June 1805 Wolverton had
purchased Fisher and Miller undivided
two-thirds in Nov. J805 Klasc quit-claim.
ed to Mann his interest In the deed of 1851
Mann conveyed nn Interest ot his claim
to Longenberger's executors, nnd In 18G9
bequeathed everything to his wife, nnd
died in J iiiuaiy 1870. In 1870 F. Stewart
procuied nn agi cement with Caroline Mann,
widow, and a deed, of which nothing tur
ther need bo said.
Claiming that the deed of 1851 and the
paper aecumpaii) Ing It, signed by .Miller,
constituted but a mortgage, nnd Wolver
ton mortgagee In possession, certuin money
wns tendered to him by tho .Mann party,
and a re-conveyance of his two-thirds de
manded in 1800. Wolvcrton claiming us
owner, refused to receive tho money or to
convey. Accordingly In September 1874
Mary McAlarncy by A. Itlcketts tiled a bill
In Equity against Wolverton, to compel an
account nnd conveyance. John G. Freeze
appeared for Wolverton and filed nn an
swer, the bill was nmended, introducing
F. Stewart, and Mr. Freeze put in nn an
swer for Stownrt, for whom, however,
Charles G. Barkley afterward appeared.
On tho Bill and Answers Bumuel Knorr,
Esq., wns appointed Examiner and Muster.
Tho taking of testimony In the case was
begun November 0, 1870, and was closed
In June 1880. Mr, Hughes appeared la
the case for Wolvcrton with Mr. Freeze.
Reports, exceptions and arguments con
tinued In regular order until April 7, 1884,
when Judge Elwell, before whom tho first
ejectment i,had been tried in 1800, made u
Fiual Decree. To this Decrco exception
was taken, and when the case was mado
up for thu Supreme Court, on the Bill In
Equity, the paper book mado over 500
pages. By this time all the coal profitably
uvailablo had been worked out, tho mining
appliances, breaker, houses, switches, ccc,
had been removed, and the receiver had in
hand about twenty thousand dollars. When
tho case came to be heard in tho Supremo
Court, John O. Frcezo nnd Charles It.
Buckalew appeared for Wolvcrton i aud
Itlcketts for defendants in error. Tho
caso was argued tho first of March 185,
and decided tho first of October followlngi
the decree being largely modified In favor
of the plulutlft In error, Wolverton.
"The Longenbcrgcr caso" may bo said to

Hciiool Itonrcl.
In the Republican of October 8 nppearcd
a remarkable resolution Bald to have been
nnnnimovly ndoptcd by the school board of
Bloom district.
The preamblo to the resolution reads as
follows: "Whereas It Is evident from n
careful examination into the degree of
progress among tho pupils ot the public
schools of our district, that there is n fail
ure in the attainment of lesults, especially
noticeable in the primary grades,- anil,
whereas, for the past six or eight years the
puro-"word" method so-calledof touching,
has been adopted ns the proper method of
Instruction In such elementaiy classes, and
being further convinced that such failure
does not lesult from a lack of qualification,
Interest or enthusiasm on tho part of thu
teacher, &c." This preamble Insinuates
thnt the vxird method of teaching, reading,
or, as the directors term it, "tho pure
'word' method socalled," has, in the Bloom
district, proved u failure. Be It under
stood, that It Is the methml Unit is u failure,
and not the teachings for tho teachers, wo
ate told, are qualified, interested, and en
thusiastic. But what do theso directors mean by
"the 'pine' word method socalled?" Do
they mean teaching only disconnected
words, or nil words simply by sight ?
II cither of these, we should liko
to have them inform tus who
advocates such a method; nnd, furthcr.who
taught by It. If any of the teachers hnvu
practiced It.why is It said that they arc qual
ifiedt What better evidence of their unfit
ness could bo ndduced thun tho fact Hint
their methods arc iinphlloslflcal, and, con
sequently, failures ?
We arc told, too, that this method "has
been adopted ns tho proper method of in
struction." Will tho directors bo kind
enough to tell us what they mean by
proper, ns used In this connection, and by
whom this method wns adopted as tho
"proper" one.
But since these men condemn the uvd
method of leaching primnry reading, ns
they undcrstnnd it, they must believe them
selves competent to pass judgment upon
It. To ascertain their qunlificitinns for
the task, let us compare their views with
those of men who havo made teaching nnd
the philosophy of instruction n life work
men, therefore, of unquestioned authority.
W. II. Payne, Prot. of Pedagogy in
Michigan University, says: "The advan
taccs of the tcoro! method are the following:
1. It is natural, I. e., In harmony with
the organic mode of mental activity.
2. It makes the transition from spoken
language to written language direct and
easy.
3. From tho very first, it secures the
child's interest nnd attention, and thus
makes rending an cnjojnblc task.
4. It makes spelling n natural process,
1. c, places it after reading, and makes it
consist In the resolution of words into their
elements.
5. As It avoids the slow deciphering of
words into their elements, It penults great
er fluency in lending."
Dr. Edward Brooks pays: "In this way
(by the iron! method) a child learns to pro
nounce words before it inons its letters.
This is tho correct method for the be
ginner. First, it is the niituiul method; it
is the samo way In which wo begin spoken
language, and In which we learn the names
of other objects. It is nlso the most inter
esting method; for a young pupil is more
Interested In words than in nbstrac.t charac
ters. It Is the most philosophical method,
for it proceeds from the knoien to the unknown,
from the known spoken word to the un
known written word. It is nlso the his
torio method: for wtltten language em-ploye-d
symbols for entire words before it
used letters; und the historical order of de
velopment generally indicates the true or
der for the child."
Supt. N. A. Calkins, of Now York, says:
"Children lcnrn, naturally, by proceo ling
from the knmcn to that which is akin in the
unknown. This Is the true order for teach
ing.
1. Sound-irnrda (spoken words), ns used
in conversation, constitute tho known to
the child justcommencing to learn re iding.
I'onn-u-otd) (printed or written words) aio
the unknown to this beginner, and the kin
to the noimd-ieW, or known.
2. Whole words nre first learned in con.
versatlon. The whole form of tho word
should be learned first in reading. The
first nb ect of the instructor should be to
teicli the child to know by sight the forms
of those words which are already known
to the ear,
3. Children lcnrn the concrete before
the abstract; the whole before its purls.
Words ale the wholes in the first lessons of
reading. Their parts, or analysis Into
sounds and letters, belong to a subseepient
step.
4. To secure n liahlt ot readme wuu an
e-asv, natural voler, tho child must bo
trained from tlio first tn treat printed words
as signs of things, actions and thoughts.
5. The rapidity with which a child may
be taught by recognizing tho simple form
of the words at first Is surprising, and no
less surprising is the facility nnd perfection
w 1th which spelling Is uflcrwards learned."
Hev. Thomas Hill, "ono of tho most em
inent educators of the age," says: "The
words which a child uses are in ms minii
signs of things, and he has no moro ana
lyzed the parts of n word than ho has ana
lyzed tho parts of tho thing it stands for.
At first this Is the best method of intro
ducing him to tho printed langua.e, not to
Its letters, but to its wonts as wnoies. as
when you hold up the plcturo of a dog.and
ask what it is. you do not wish him to say,
'It is tho picture of n dog,' nor that 'it is
one side of the head, one hind leg, and
both foro legs of n dog,' but when he sci'S
the picture, you wish him to say, it Is a
dog, so when he sees tlio printed word.you
wish hint to suv. not dee oh lee, but elog.
Teach him thus to read very simple sen
tences, containing only the most common
words, by pronouncing nt sight each word
and contlnuo nt this for some months, until
tho child recognizes instantly, at sight,
about a hundred words."
These iinotatlnns clearlv show that thu
ability to diagnose educational diseases Is
not possessed In an eminent degree by "thu
school board ot Bloom district;" for, ac
cording to tho authorities named, "the
cnrefiircxainiuation" that wo are told was
made, did not discloso tho true cause of
tlio alleged failure. Perhaps the examiners
were not suttleienliv patient in their mves
ligation, nor even entered upon It with nn
unbiassed luilcment. liicv may nave necn
somewhat in the same predicament us tho
"school committee" of (uincy, Mussacnu
setts.
Charles F, Adams, Jr., In his report of
the uulnoy schools, says: "i no most con
foundlnc thlnir lo tho members of thu com
mlttcc was, that in hearing the primaries
read, not u child nmong tliein could repeat
its letters, or even know their namcs.unlcss
perchance, to tho teacher's Increased trou-
blu had been tnuiilil al home'."
The conclusion ot tho matter Is, that tho
nssertcil fuilurc, whether real or Imaginary,
has been attributed to the wrong causoi
und, assuming tlio failure to be rcul, ono
of tho two remaining possible factors the
teachers or me directors must uo respon
siblo for it.
In our next communication wo slull con
shier tho resolution or remedy proposed.

drawn from Greece and Home to show that

I hat minister or politician who replied
to my remark In last week's paper, "that
clergymen had better lcmaln In the pulpit
und not be seen upon the streets in tlio
role of a polltlciau, seemed to think that
the advice was rather thin. Wo do uot de
ny tho gentleman the right to vote, nor do
wo object to Ids how and wherefore of the
manufacture and use of liquor, but yet we
do not llud In the Holy Book, that God's
chosen servant should be seen upon a store
box, ou a street corner, where you find
patent medlclue men, street fakirs, and low
class politicians, for even a first-class poll
tician will hardly speak there; but will go
to some hall. J ho Bible says, That you
shall not be heard for your much speaking,
but go to God In prayer, having faith, and
ho w ill grant your favor. The word of
God also states in Ilomans that they who
would be ministers should wait upon the
ministry, and that God's ministers should
wait continually upon their olllce, and an'
other pluco St. Paul said, "For tho wcap
ons for our warfare are not carnal, but
mighty through God," and again In Tim
othy ho says; That God's scr vunts should
shuu profane and vain babblings; for they
will Increase ungodllnecs. And in conclusion
let mo stuto Unit tho Great Lawgiver has
saldi Let everything be done decently and
lu order. And I think that bringing railing
against political parties, claiming that they
uro thu party, looks to ma more liko grasp.
Ing for a good olllce, than the meekness
and humility of a humble follower of our
Lord and Savior.

The echo of Lupin's 50-cent
dark-colored cashmeres for 37J4

and now two more of Lupin s
fall with a crash !
Lupin's Aurora, a serge, goes
clown from 75 cents to 50
Seventeen mod colors and

Lupin's La Source, a herring

Not one of these coes down
for any reason whatever in the
cloths themselves. What is the
reason ? Accident picked them
out tor the tumble.
Rough stuffs are crowding
smooth ones; but these are not
smooth. Serge, herringbone
whip-cord twill and homespun
belong to the middle style be
tween rough and smooth that
thousands on thousands prefer.
And yet we can t account lo
the tumble except by the pres
sure of rough on smooth. The
question was, What shall give
way t iNothmg but accident fel
upon these.
The serge is as staple as any
stuff in the store. Herringbone
scarcely less so. Whip-cord
twill a favorite heavy dress-stuff.
Homespun r Nothing more so
