LAN ijLObii) AND TENANT-

magistrates, aldermen or justices of
the peace, by landlords, for the re
covery of premises because of tl:e
expiration of the lease for which
the premises were rented, or lor

lawful in all cases uuappealed from
or where writs of certiorari have
ot been issued, where the tenant
or occupant forcibly detains the
premises against the constable serv

The Sanit) Wrong in Pennsylvania-
Thomas C. Piatt's admission that
some of tiu life insurance compan
ies had paid large sums to him for
the Republican campaign fund,
jvith the idea that he would exert
lis influence in their favor with
:he Legislature of New York, has
caused a general denunciation of
the New York Senator. While
;his is well deserved, it is well for
.he people of Pennsylvania to recol
lect that the same state of affairs
bas long existed in their own Com
monwealth. The senatorial bosses
af Pennsylvania have lor many
vears received immense sums from
he big corporations to be used for
campaign and other purposes, the
payment of which was made solely
With the idea of securing the in
luence of the bosses with the mem
lers of the Legislature. As a re
mi . the big corporations of Pennsyl
vania have practically dictated leg
islation. The state of affairs will
.ontinue until the people of the
ttate elect a Legislature controlled
y them, and not by the bosses.

Holiday Shopping
Gentle reminders are being given
by the merchants of Blootnsburg to
customers not to delay in tLe work
of holiday shopping. Indeed it is
not too early to talk about the ad
visability of doing Christmas shop
ping early. By so doing much
trouble will be avoided to both the
storekeeper?, their employes and
the public.
Fully nine-tenths of the presents
you want for Christmas are in the
stores now. You can find every
thing your hea'-t desires for holiday
purposes on the counters and on
the shelves.
You can find competent and cour
teous clerks who are not too busy
to wait on you. You can shop
quietly and calmly, which is good
for the nerves of all concerned.
Then there is another item. It
is, often easier to purchase $5 worth
of Christmas goods a week for three
weeks, than it is to save the money
for a splurge in a single shopping
tour.
Good advice may be wasted on
some folks,- but there are enough
people who desire to avoid shopping
trials, and who are grateful when
their memories are jogged, to make
it worth while to call their attention
to the fact that Christmas buying
when done in a rush is hard work.
The stores of Bloomsburg are full
of a fine display of goods, and if you
want a good selection, take this ad
vice and go early.
With a shopping list carefully
made out, and following the sug
gestions of the advertisements in
the Columbian, Christmas shop
ping may be made a delight instead
of the bore it oftimes is.

AUTO ANU DOKSE
Judge Says that Anlmr.l that Cannot Bo
Driven Past Machine Properly Man
aged Should Bo Kept Gfl Iho
Highway
In setting aside a verdict of $150
given by a jury last summer at
Norristown lor damages sustained
by a collision between a team and
an automobile, Judge Weand says
in his opinion:
"An owner of an automobile has
as much right to the highway ns
the driver of a horse and carriage.
If a horse cannot be driven past a
vehicle properly managed, the own
er should kep dim off the high
way, or submit to the conse
quences." He says that owing to
the hostility and feeling in the
country against the leckless use of
automobiles the jury may have
been misled. In this case the
weight of evidence being in favor
of the delendant the verdict is set
aside and a new trial grauted.
BIO BEAR IN SULLIVAN
A big black bear attacked a party
of five hunters in the woods of Sul
livan county Wednesday afternoon
and badly injured Hugh Burns, of
Larksville, near Wilkes-Barre.
The hunters were taken by sur
prise. Burns was knocked over in
the rush and the bear seized him,
rolling over and over with him,
biting, scratching aud hugging.
Bums' friends, Thomas Loftus,
Johu Fogarty, Peter Blaine and
Henry Reidler, rushed bravely to
his aid, but their guns were loaded
only with bird shot, and it was
difficult to shoot owing to fear of
hitting Bums, and they fired only
when they could press the muzzle
of their guns against the bear's
side. It took ten of these shots to
kill the big animal, which weighed
428 pounds.

National Commission on the pro
posed change of inauguration day
as the day to recommend to Con
gress for future Presidential inau
gurations. It was decided that no

ing a new date for the assembling
of Congress.
The committee having the ;r.atter
tinder consideration consists of fif
teen residents of Washington and
the governors of the states and ter
ritories. Governor Lea, of Delaware, was
the only state executive present,
though letters commending a
change in the date of inauguration
had been received from all the re
maining states and territorial gov
ernors. Attention was called to the fact
that the resolution of the late Sena
tor Hoar of Massachusetts, naming
the last Thursday in April as a new
inauguration day, had passed the
Senate but had not come to a vote
in the house. It was stated thai
death of Senator Bates, Ambassador
Aspiroz and Judge Lawrence Wei
