POLITICAL BCV1LTKV.
KloPz can. at last, thank Gov. Harlranft
for his sent In Congres, ami we trust Mint
when IheUovcrnor neeila friends, Klotz will
lint forget lilni. tW Gatitte.
It is sehlom that we feel called upou,n9
an Independent journalist, to make Kiliti.nl
Miuuieiit, and never In tho liitciest of tho
triumph of one political party over another.
Tor some months, however, wo hnvo care
fully watched the maneuvers of certain po
litical aspirants in Caibon county, ami have
cuine to the conclusion that if their labors
urouccoiiiplishliig anything, or if they ever
lieaf any kind of fruit, it will bo an evil
ami pernicious crop to the community, and
for that reason wo proposo to give tlio lliink
Ing jiortioii of tho community n little eyo
opener on the subject.
First let us sjy, there is nothing so easy
as to defame, and the cosiest kind of tUf.im
r ation is thut of public men. To abuse men
holding ohVo Is about tho only conception
Soma have of the privileges of living under
a fieo government. To attain to position or
reputation Is to tiiuko oneself shining
mark for every lewd fellow of the baser bolt
who Ims strength and skill enough tolling
dirt. A man desiring to attack u politic, il
opponent and roiso a prejudieo against him
in tho minds of the unthinking musses, finds
his easiest and surest method to bo to charge
him with corruption. This is vague, in
definite, and most difficult to meet.
For a few weeks past E. Moll Boyle, Esq.,
hus seeu fit to try to heap up u mud-mouud
on tho fair fume of a man who has been
more highly honored by the Itepublicaiis of
this great State than any other man who has
sought tho iopular luvor since the existence I
of the parly. In administering tho Exeeu
tivo of IVnnsylvania for eight consecutive
years, Gov. Ilnrtrauft's conception of right
and justice seems over to have weighed first
in the balance, in shnpingall his publicacts;
yet os ho steps down to receivo Jho honois
which n grateful people would naturally
tender him, he finds himself confronted by
tho direful condemnation of tho Chairman
of tho Republican Committco of Carbon
Connty. Alight not tho ex-(iovernor, as he
reaches forth his hand to tako tho postmnst
erjhip of Philadelphia, proffered him by
President Hayes, turn a wild look north
eastward, and say "Ministers of Gruco de
fend usl" Should he, however, in his old
ge, find himself bankrupt in purso and
character, ho is recommended to tho charit
able consideration of tho Congressman elect
of the 11th Distiict. How very kind and
considerate in Mr. Boyle.
Wo shall not argue tho lalo Congressional
contest. It was a hard fight and is settled.
Msj. Klotz will tako his scat on the -1th of
March, if no untoward calamity intervenes,
and will serve his constituents no doubt
with ability, and with honor to himself.
General Albright would have dono likewise
if fortune had smiled upon him, but it did
Onot, and lika any other sensible man, he ac
cepts the situation.
And now to tho real issue. Mr. Boyle
staked his bottom dollar, figuratively siiealc
ing, on the last fall's campaign, in this
,county, and even figured himself a seat in
IhlfBtatjJjglslature. It was a laudable am
bilfonTtnjratere, Ho planned hi3 cam
paign, however, where tho unwiso man
built his houso. Nevertheless, at first the
cable all seemed to coil to his side of tlic ship.
Ho balled, "with a smile that was child-
...iuum.....-. -
ocratic cyan to assume an ,mle,..lent
rolo and tddictale a certain inoof, ,!,ey for
our adopted Irish bom citizens to re.
Mr. Boyle look particular pa us to copy and ,

the persecuted Mollies out of tho back-door
of the Oaicfe office. Ho thought he "heard
something drop," when ho saw tho organ
switched olf tho party track on u suspicion
of encouraging "impure and unauthorized
alliances j" und ho found himself, when the
real issue was cuhiiinatlng,mcasuriug swords
with a most unexpected plot and counter
plot in Ids game of intrigue.
Bo it said, to tho credit of our adopted
Irish fellow citizens, that they took this ef
fort to ally them en masse with Mollio Ma
guireism, ami as n peoplo oppressed on ac
count of their nationality and religion, os 'in
insult to their intelligence and manhood.
They knew that, as citizens of tho United
States and of the sovereign Stale of Pennsyl
vania, there was no wwer under the sun
that could peiseeutc them whatever le their
birth-place, and for this reason they spurned
the sycophantic sympathy which was thus
being so lavishly dealt out to them.
It is not surprising, then, that our hero
found his compalgn an ignominious failure,
and himself in a condition calculated to lore
the confidence of his party as a leader. This j
Idea was enough to, and seems to have'
driven him to desperation, and now lie un-'
musks, and, us a journalist, abandons him-j
self to the centralized puriwso of trying!
to stimulate factions on the questions of na-1
tlonallty and religion. During a political '
camiialgn such labors might bo tolerable ; '
otherwise they are rep-eheusible.
Horace Greely ami others, authors of the
"Great American Industries," said of coal
mining in Pennsylvania :
"The coal-miners are a rough and some
times u troiiblsomo class of men, who are
greatly given to combinations and strikes,
and who aio made responsible for the iro-
nuent 'scarcity' aud cuiiseuucnt hMi nriiin

and their convictions of duty to society and
their fellow-men.
As a sample of Mr. Boyle's peculiareflbrts
to prejudice the mind, of the unthinking let
u. take the coso of Sharpo and McDonnell.
After they had been convicted by a Carbon
county Jury, upon evidence, which in the
abseiicq of rebutting testimony, left no doubt
of their guilt after their oonvietlon three
able lawyers did alt in their power to hunt i
up new rebutting testimony and printed

sides this, the two men were not
in dark dungeons or hurried uw
scatruld, but were allowed weekly
seven mouths, to converse fnwlv u
inenus ana tne yisiting public who ear-1
ried their stories In sympathy to the Chrir-
lu world, and,ti.'Uoth,r;gUrirtJl.
I establish their Iriiioceneo. In llio face of
fciireiiuiii niTh iu vYvctt. fcnu uuituctuiiuiiui-ti
tip to tho day of tho execution, in contempt
of Jurors, courts and judges, to stultify Itself
by proclaiming the two men "innocent,"
although ono uf Ibcm was a sclf confessed
murdered and tho other, oil account of his
notorious Infamy, was called by his associ
ates "Sharps the Scrapcr."On tho day of
tho execution, just before the trap was
sprung, Sharpesuld, hastily glancing around
the corridor of the jail, "Tell Mr. Boylo to
print that statement he wrote down for me
it is true, every word of It." The strong
point in that statement, as published, isi
"If they (tho legal authorities) would
come out and tell tin truth, wlnt they are
hanging mo for is that I am an Irishman
and a Roman Catholic. They can't find
anything else against lue In this world."
Shades of the Inquisition! How much
truth is there in this statement? Is It as
true as tho other statements inauo by this
man on the gallows? Is it as truo us the
other statements inado weekly In tho Ga
zette! If so, and ruiy of them are true,
may wo not go in shame, as n jieople, and
bury our boasted Declaration of Indepen
dence and our family Bibles, burn ilownour
public schools and libraries, and our famed
institutions of learning. But it is false in
famously false, and adds but another black
fK)t to tho memory of tho now doubly un
fortunalo man who uttered it, and for this
icason, if no other, it should never have
been published. Had Sharpo lived a truo
Roman Catholic, in all probability to-day,
ho would bo living, a useful and respected
member of society, as nro thousands of his
fellow-countrymen in almost every Stato of
the Union.
But in tho publication of that, as in n lit
tlo doggerel hi last week's Gazelle, "So Re
spite Until After Breakfast," dying the
peoplo a poetic pen-picture of a model Re
publican Governor tho scratch of whoso pen
sent nineteen Mollies to tho sen Hold and
Major Klotz to Congress,. wo eco typified
friend Boyle's mania tho "means unto an
end" tho fire-brand that scared his last
campaign and damned him as a parly leader
in this county.
And withal, every effort to engender bitter
and factious strife in communities, on tho
questions of nationality or religion, is so
ditious and diabolical, and all thoso who
engage in it should bo scourged under the
lash of viituous public sentiment. When
a man immigrates to tho United Stales, at
tains citizenship, and so vows, ho censes to
bo an Englishman, Welshman, Irishman.
Get man, etc., and whoever labors to etir up
a different feeling in his bosom is nil evil
wirkcr, in unhuimonlzing and weakening
tho moral forces ol society.
OUR INDUSTRIES, No. 5.
Tlio Tort Allen rolliirtry.
For tho consideration of an enterprising
Mauch Chunkcr who, with a most com
mendablo intention, urges tho business men
of that borough to form a stock company,
with a capital of $100,000, to start a shoe
shop for tho manufacture of miners' shoes,
wo present this week a brief glanco at the
history and present operation of tho Fort
Allen Foundry, which covers, with its scv
cral building', an extensive area of ground
in Wcissport, near the site of tho old historic
block-house and fortification, in memory of
which the foundry was named.
Tivo or six years ago, just at llio com
mencement of tho commercial depression
which has so distressed business of every
kind, two enterprising young men, brothers,
William and C. D. Miner, botli practical
moulders and skilled in tho various details
of tho making of castings, but witli a capital
so small that men with lcs cnurnoa woul.l
nave shrunk from the undertaking even In
0,. !aictf detcnnliicd to cftablish a
f0UllJly, wiUl a lllU failh in labor, which
.i rb Ihelr own llmo ami talent and
giv0 ,,, all ()1,lwrlunitv to l30 komo of
;ho natural icsou.ees of tho Lehigh Valley
..... -
to Uitiradvantnzo. There was no hnlluei-
nation lu tho prospect that lay before them.
They were brought up and had learned their
trades iu tho locality where they now pro
posed to try their fortunes as partners in a
business venture.
That which staggers every new venture
in tho field of manufacturing, in this coun
try, is not so much tho makinig of tho wares
as tho finding a ready market for them by
which tlio oiiginal cost witli a margin can
be realized to tho manufacturer. Ifhocoiii
mences business witli a small capital, he
finds himself at onco besot with n net-woik
of the most trying difficulties his current
expenses, tho payment of salaries to em
ployees and imjicrativo bills and duns from
dealers in tho stock which ho ha3 used in
his business oil theso cast their shadows in
his pathway to try Ids nerve, and make
him wish. witli Shakespeare's dramatis per
sona:, "Would it were night, Hal, and all
were well." Ono of tho first large orders
which the young propiietors of tho Fort Al
len foundry executed was for tho patentees
ami manufacturers of tho Bunting Car Seat
Frames,- and this proved disastrous, ns tho
company makiug Hie frames camo short in
meeting their obligations, and finally, we
believe, susjiended. This inconvenienced,
tho projectors of tlio Fort Allen Fouii
dry, but they steered firmly and safely
through jt, kt their credit good, and fin
ally recovered nil that tho suspended com
pany owed them.
Ono of the secrets of their success lies in
the fact that the two brothers are both prac
tical mechanics ami business men, work
hard every day with their employees, In tho
various departments of tho foundry, cm
ploy no clerks, bookkeepers, ogents or other

Druffslst ana riiyvlclan
A physician, complaining bitterly about
dull times, went lo Ins druggist to find out
tho reason why, nt this season ol tho year,
his practlco was not so extensive ns formerly
also, to find out what inducements his bro
ther medico offered tn attract away his pa
tients. Ho was startled when his druggist
answered ns follows: "Doctor, coughs and
colds nro very prcvulent, but every ono is
purchasing Hale's Hosf.y or Hoiikiiousd
axd Tar, nmd recovers so rapidly that there
is no necessity for calling in ft physician.
Again, tho reason that Dr. F., on th
street, is having so many patients is owing
to tho fiankness ho adopted iu pcrscribing
in every case of Coughs Colds, etc., n bottle
ofllALF.'n HOSKV OK HOUKIIOUND AXO TAR,
and finding it successful, ho had concluded
in future that all his ialients, when troub
led with any disease of Iho lungs, shall im
mediately commence taking Hall's Husky
OF IIoRKIIOCM) AXn TAR."
Tho druggist's nilvico was snapped, and
tho almost discouraged physician now con
sidered a successful practitioner. Ills claims
are based upon the virtues of Iho medicine
ho adonis, which in all cases is IIalk's IIo.v
KY of Huueiiousu AS1 Tau. Sold by till
druggists, Large sizo much the cheapest.
