Not raauy yean ago Barautn, the great showtnau, hail sxett a wonderful .curiosity that It became kuown as the ckbwd"rartjr JW" Who were ambitious enoueh to start a nolltleal bow In Carbon county and put the "ttlrd Tcriri-i wider Uts canvass as the greatest political curiosity lu the -world, ha would draw a small crowd, rot thev would pay him big to sco so wonderful a uung. Be could cut some well-ouallfled noli ticiin on a store box and proclaim totlio awe rtrtclron people, and tho smaller politicians, that now ha hid obtained for the first time at great, expenso the -ureal What is if In politics called the "Third Term." Ho would no doubt say that such a thing u a man holding onyofflco for tlireo terms In Carbon county, or In any other place In tho world, was never known or heard of. Of course all men of sonso would know - I,. . . nM hi:, isi uiero are always a few .who would llko to bo humbugged by political uarnuni's. indeed, every well Informed man would at once sav. that nearly, If not every township and bor ough in tho county has men who have held local offices 'for moro than three terms It is full of them everywhere In all the counties of Pennsylvania. Whv was It? I supposo It would bo fair to say, mat it was because they wero honest ana competent men and faithful ly served the people that Is all tho peopio want or caroabont In tho admin titration of public trusts, whether they be hlch or low. Instances are verv plenty of men holding County, State ana national offices for more than three terms. JSanram'a 4,Thlrd Term" show Leonid io a .Inmbng to deceive tho Ig- 7n -relation -to the -office of Protliono- tary I wlsb. to make a special observa tion. I flnd upon Inquiry, that In the majority of tlie connlles of (this State men have held that office for three terms, and In many ease3 oftcrar and that the same practico lain -voetuo to. day. Thero is a very sorcntl reason for this: The office of ProKicnotary is one requires special talcnt,-trInlng and skill, and moro than that, It requires experience. I would wagi? 'anything mat i.eorge w. Esscr, TEsq., after serv ing six years In that office, tflth great crodlt to himself and entire satisfaction to tbe Court, bar and people, docs not fully understand all the Intricate details and requirements of that cfiioe. It is one of the few offices that -fiie-publlc good requires should bo helfi ?bv the saino Individual during good bticavlor. 1 Indeed, that Is now tho law, or Kt'least, the customary practice, In all ourt.ighor courts. 'How then can the people be benefited by putting an untrained and inesptri teaced man In such a critical office every iltree or sir years? U do not think tiiU the Carbon County Bar will disagree with ma when I say that there Is'not.'a lawyer at the bar that knows a partible too much about law, custom, iociciof procedure, and the proper methods f 'issuing the numerous writs, and gener ally performing the duties of tho office of I'rothonotary, to fill tho position. It Is fair to askny man who objects to otc for an .exnericncjd. nullified and honest am, 'like Mr. Esscr, for Ms reason. If he has no other reason thut because It Is for tho "Third Terns," then he surely ought to go to Barnum's political show and see the "What is It," so that he could explain himself to his frleuds, I have shown you that the "Third Term" is not against any rule, practice or custom of the Democratic party, In deed that party is lu favor of It, and has been since the foundation of the government. But seine opponent of the "Third Term," unaccustomed to reasoning and discrimination, may say In reply, Didn't the Democrats raise a "great howl" when Gen. U. S.Grant was mentioned tor President the third time? I answer certainly the Democrats did that very thln. and so did that class of Re publican leaders who wanted tbe office themselves. But you must not forget that thero Is a vast difference between a IomI oflha and that of Prcsiicnt of the United Slates. The great cry -raited about "Caisarism" frightened some He publlcans, and Gen. Grant lost the nomination. No man of any Intelli gence Is foolish enough to believe that Gen. Grant ever could, or ever would, have thought of usurping his powers. Those people, If any there be, In Car bon county, who are opposnd to Jlr. Esscr for Clerk of our Courts, prohably have "Caisarism" on the brain from the presidential campaign cry of 1880. This "Third Term" Is a nlc little trick to urge against a ma In office, by soiuc other fellow who wants It himself, to beat him out of the nomination, but after that It Is no good and ought to be dropped, because It Is nonsense In the highest degree. The "Third Term" has been given to honest and able men all over the Union cl all times and .places, and especially Is this true of the Frothonotary's office. heard a business man use the fol lowing argument against the "Third Term," to wit: I believe In rfvlni. everybody a chance two terms Is long oaougn xor one man If yen keep- one jpan la office all the time we can't find o.m what kind of material there is in Ihopartyjt In Justice to the business nan who said U, X hasten to add that it Via made befnrA ihn vtnn,lntnn r - .ww .v II. lV4 W Mr, Riser, and it looks neat and clean jn t&Mace If you don't analyze It. But ' would that same business man, if he had men In his employ who by long years of honest service had earned and obtained his confidence, discharge or dismiss them from bis service simply to give others a chanco and to find out what kind of other good material there Is among the people of the world. That same business man has such men In bis employ, and I know-lie would not think of utscharglng them for the purpose of waking a business cxnerimeiit. Nm business man In the world would think clU.tag uchrt UJluiioe.'rk.tlJcr But lastly, will the croakers say that In tho mutter of a public offlco It h a dif ferent thing. How is It different? Why, nnd where is tho difference? Tho sooner tho people of County, State and Nation realize the grand idea that "a public oltlco is a public trust," and tho closer It Is managed upon strict business principles, tho better it will befof thorn. This Idea, I think, 110 man will or can dispute. It was this issue upon whlch Mr. Paulson was elected Governor of Pennsylvania; nnd ho has adhered to It as sound Democratic doctrine in the State administration of public affairs. But" this is not all. Grover Cleveland was elected President of tho United States upon a Democratic platform strongly endorsing tho same principles. Indeed, that platform earnestly endorses tho doctrluo of "Civil Service Beform.'i That doctrine not oly glvea every pub lic office-holder of a certain grade, a "Third Torsi" but It gives him his po sition as long as ho lives, If he so long Dehavw himself well. Even that Is not all. A Democratic President cannot re move a Republican office holder without cause, if he comes under that class of officials sped lied under tho civil service laws. Tho whole idea of all this'is to bring tho administration of tho govern meat. In all Its branches and depart ments, upon sound business principles;' Tho Democratic party,' tn CountyState and National Conventions, has repeat edly declared this idea to bo tho correct doctrlno of tho party. Besides all this tho abolishing of tho fee system for a fixed salary for all public officlals'is urged and argued everywhere as an Im portant question of reform, to get upon solid business principles In conducting the affairs of the people. Lastly, as a clincher, tho Democratic party have, in thli very, campaign nominated Conrad B. Day, for State Treasurer, because ho is a business man, and not a politician, in order to sustain the well-defined policy of tho party, to conduct tho peoplo's business upon strict business principles. It is such a sound and com mendable political doctrine, that honest men from all parties will vote for It, for their own good and safety. Reason, sound business principles, precedent, rules.customand platforms, all point out the path of duty which every Democratic and Independent voter owes to Mr. Esscr and tho good of tho public cause. It sounds very ridiculous to hear a sen siblo man thoughtlessly say, that he can not vote for Mr. Esser because It is against tho rules of the parly. No man, who is a man, will vote against him for that reason, because he knows better, lie must find some other cause. Lax Scripta. Mauch Chunk, Sept. 2St!, 1SS5. Ex-GovecKon Hoyt's speech at tho great occasion of tho unveiling of tho Soldiers' Monument, at Hazleton. on Hie 25th ult., has caused more discussion than any speech delivered in this region for years. Ho boldly antagonized Si na- tor Sherman's Idea of any Tenewalit sectional strifo and discussed the issue eloquently and fearlessly. He declared that, thu cause for which tho soldiers had fought was won: that the entire coc.ltry now accepted their victory and that the only questions -remaining were matt ers for the local Governments. Mr. Thorns, of Catasaunua, who is a strone llepu. lican and a large investor in Ala bama, ivas present and heartily appiovcd Iloyl's speech, as did most of tho audi ence of all parties. Mr. Thomas said ths t S tnator Sherman's speeches will do mare t 9 hinder prosperity in the South for Northern capital than any or all oth.er present causes.

The corn crop of tho United States having passed tho cillical stage and be ing no longer snbjtct to Injury from frost, the Farmcm' Kcticw, of Chicago, from returns received from 1100 corres pondents, gives an estimate of the total yield of tho present year. The aggre gate yield in tho ten principal corn growingStatcs Is estimated at l,-13d,.3(!,-000 bushels, an increase of 1SI,6-10,000 on last, year's crop. Tho other States and Territories aro expected to swell tho total of this year's crop to 1,079, 636,000 bushels. The Western Anthracite Coal Com mission held Its annual meetlncr In Erie on Wednesday.

Whero the great Brooklyn Brldgo crosses Pearl street Is a llttlo spaco called Franklin Square. It is said that Franklin when a traveling "jour," wandered Into Bradford's printing of fice, which stood near this spot. It is not a Square, as its name would lndl- I Ian-, nut n uiiiL-, uui u irmiiie, nur n ....... 1.... cribablo figures for which geometry finds no name hut irregular. Tho Franklin Squaro of to-day Is not tho Frauklin Squaro of fifty years ago or a hundred years ago, for matter'of that when Franklin Square, which was. then fmbraced In ''The Maidens' Walk," was one of tho fashionable sauntering places of the city. Hero the lovers of a hun dred years ago tnpt tholrawoethcarts on tho banks of tho beautiful dock or lake, and crossing tho "Lovers' Bridge" they never failed to claim a lover's privilege, to which" tho crossing of tho "Lovers' Brldgo" entitled them; and they wan dered Into the green fields along the Bowery Lane, picking the cowslips and tho daisies, and perchance finding after anxious search thatomtni of good luck a four-leaved clover. Rii;ht under the brldco was the house In which Thomas Jefl'erson'lled when ho was Secretary oi-oiaie, anu ucncrai. kuox, tnc becrc-tary-of War. was a near nWnhbor. and across .tho way were tho lodgings of 'Tom Paine; and It was here that Tal leyrand touud quarters when driven an exile from his uatlvo laud. It was tho fashionable French quarter, and this In all probability decided Mr. 'Jefferson In selecting it for his abode. At that time a broad law.n stretched away to the banks of the East River, and gardens and orchards were to bo seen a3 far as the eye could reach, All that is altered now. The gardens and orchards disappeared many years ago, and whero the pink of our aristoc racy once dwelt is now to be found tho vilest dregs of our population. Only a block away lived John Allen called the wickedest man In New York and It was here that Jerry McAulcy founded his Water Street Mlssiou, which from annunible beginning grew and blossomed into the Cremorne Mission, whero Jerry McAulcy died. An humble follower of Christ was Jerry, who first caw his Saviour's face through a convict's prison bars. Ho had been a river thief, a gambler and a prizo fighter; but when lie put his hand to the plough ho never looked back. Utterly friendless, with crimo deep-scarred in every lineament of Ills face, who would trust him, who would bullnie himV Ho had faith in Jesus that might have moved a moun tain; it did nearly .13 much, for it moved the hearts of men and woman outcasts scomingly of God forsaken. From Wall street came rich bankers, and from South street great merchants, and in the humble Water street Mission, sur rounded by druudard3, harlots and tli'evcs, they knelt down and prayed; and their prayers have been answ ered, and tho harvest was great. Mr. Hatch and William E. Dodge had faith in the convict, and in his work, aud that faith never wavered with Mr. Dodgo "till the silver thread was loosed,, aud tho noldcn bowl was broken." After Mr. Dodijo died, Jerry began to fail, and he, too, passed tho "Golden Gate." These two friends, whose lines wero cast so far apart one a wealthy merchant, and tho other a convict are to bo rcuumbcrel by future generations. A statue is to be erected to William E. DoJge, by the Chamber of Commerce, and a drinking fountain to the memory of Jerry Mc Auley. But I find I have wandered away from Franklin Squaro. On tho west side is tho great publishing house of tho Harp ers, whoso names are known wherever civilization has obtained a foothold. Ono after another tho Brothers pass away, but tho business goes on without a perceptible jar, turning out Its hun dreds of millions of pages of history, philosophy, travel, science, and all the multitudinous forms of human knowl edge. From hero go fortli Harpers' Magazine, and Harpers' H'ccMy, and Harpers' JJazaar. On the opposite side of the street, and almost directly under the Bridge, is tho office of tho Pofce Gazetlc, a vile sheet devoted to prize lighting and sensational reports of crime in its various phases; its proprietor, an Irishman by the namo of Fox, by pand ering to tho criminal classes has ac cumulated a largo fortune, lie lias been bunting the world over to find some rullian to slug the fcluggcr Sullivan, but up to this ttino tho man lias not been found. To show tho profits of this nefarious business: Mr. Fox was recent ly a defendant in a divorce case, and when it came to the question of alimony Mrs. Fox testified that her husband's income was $200,000 11 year. The in terior of the office is elegantly fitted up. and in Mr. Fox's private sanctum is a magnificent case lull of champion's oclts and other trophies for prize lights, walking matches, running matches, and sports of llko character. It Is at this office that tho Puss generally meet to deposit sialics and make arrangements for prize lichts. and here the latest anil most reliable reports of such affairs arc to be found. The proprietor of this sheet recently married the widow of Johnny Dnjcr, tho prize lighter, who was made co-rcspoiuleut In his divorce case with Iijh first wife. immediately under the bridgo is the building formerly occupied by Firth A Hall, the great music publishing house of fifty years ago. As late as forty years ago It was the popular music publishing house of tbe United States, and here our mothers used to come for "Wood man Spare that Tree," "Tho Moon on the Lake is Beaming," and all those de lightful ballads that make up our child hood's happiest memories. Tho New York end ot the great Brldgo runs over tho Swamp which, for a hundred and fifty years, has been the homo of tho tanners. This Is the great leather mart of tho United States, and hero can be found tanned all ready for use, every kind of pelt from a rat skin to an ele phant's hide. Many of the staunchest linns In the Swamp aro Quakers, the business having descended from father to son for moro than a century. Speaking of the Brooklyn Bridge, It Is one of the finest points for general Observation In the city. Under your feet Is the river, freighted with busy life, and on cither tide of you arc the rushing train's, bearing betuecn the two cities sixty or seventy thousand people a day. To the wrst aie Governor's Island, nnd Bedlo'o's -Island on which stands the magnificent pcdestral for Liberty En lightening the World, to which tho New i ork U'oWd made such a splendid con tiibution: and still far beyond, in bold relief against the sky, the Orange Moun tains of New Jersey. To thouorth rises the great City, with its million- and a half of touls and its fifteen bundled millions -of treasure. Here, and there some mighty building raises its-head far above'. its dingy fellows. One of "tho most prominent Is tho ugly Tribune building.and beyond that thp Post Office and the 'spire of the Western Union Telegraph Co., the Mutual Life Insurance- Co.' the-g'reat building' of the Standard Oil Co., and farther thsouaro turret of the Produce Exchange." Al mot opposite Is the Cyrus Field.bulld ing, erected over Washington's head quarters, on the corner of the 'Battely and tho Bowling Green. One .Citrig strikes the old New Yorker sadly,' and that is tho change In everything. The splendid opulence of Broadway, with usmigniy uuuuingsami us costly stores, arc to him no compensation for the old time memories when the city was. not a tithe as rich nor a quarter as popu lous. Modern Improvements are dally destroying the old landmarks, and In a few years fcarcclv any that have ihe slichtcst historical interest will remain. We are beslnning to feel the effects of an rarly 1'ai!. Picnbody has ft over his play spell.and once moro are settling down to the serious business of life. The hoavy bills of July and August havo to bo settled and depicted bank ac counts mado good. Tho Fall trade Is exceptionally brisk, and the styles of cooiis exhibited In iltcd In the stores most al- lurlnc and beautiful. . Ono class of cloth coming In style for ladles' wear Is a rich looking coarse stuff, very strong and serviceable, and I may add very expen sive, which, of course, will commend it to the ladles. Rich brocaded silks and Velvets aro also very fashionalc, and all the dress materials aro In much better tasto than they havo been for many years. Everybody Is afloat on stocks. Ono day the Bulls mako a rush, and you can soo their -horns tipped with gore and tho beais climbing into the tree-tops for safety.

FROM WASHINGTON From our Regular Correspondent. Washington, D. C, Sept. 20, '85, The Washington people look forward to a gay society season this winter. As that is tho general consequence the first vcar of a new administration, but they aro not quite sure that President Cleve land will contribute very mucli to tho social brilliancy. Uo has given sucii unmistakable cvidenco of quiet tastes that tho pcoplo who expect the White Houso to bo tho centre of society very much fear that the Impetus for social splendor will havo to bo sought else where. Some pcoplo Insist that the President must do a great deal of enter taining in order to get acquainted with pcoplo and to learn something about society. But tho President has left his purpose to tho conjecturo of those In terested, and has yet given no Intima tion of what ho will do. Sincohohas occupied tho White House ho has per sistently refrained from accepting invi tations to receptions and other social af fairs, having gone out but twice. Miss Cleveland has shown the same disposi tion, preicrnng 10 live quietly ana wuu out mo excitement attendant upon society inuuigcncc. biio went out but little in thu Spring, having with her as cuests some friends from New York. When she returns about October 10, she will bo accompanied by some ladies.who will remain with her the greater part of uie season, -is lar as Known, mere will lie no social occurrences of note at the White House, aside from Ihe rccen- Hon. The President docs not, it is as serted, care for banquets or dinner par ties, and this usual Stale dinner will bo the extent of the entertainment In that direction. Uo likes, however, to have friends to dine wilh him, and will pro- uaoiy jpuow mo custom. The crowd of visitors is unusually largo for tills time of year, and Is getting larger every day. Lets of them are sightseers, bride- and grooms, ifcc, but a large proportion ot them are not strangers. You can tell the stranners. you Know. And you can tell tnc olllce seekers, well, they outnumber the others just now. Strangers and sight seers generally get a guide to show tliem about. They always want to know how high it Is to tho canonv in the uome, wucu sno iapnoi was mint and who owns the pictures around tho walls. Then they want to go to thu whisperiug gallery and see tho echo stones, and some of them want to know if it really whispers, and what it says; and then say, "Ain't it funny?" Then they want to sit in the Speaker's chair, put their loot on the centre stone under the doni and to see tho lobby, whero all the big lanroaiis are uuue. i lie larger part oi the visitors here now aro after places under the new administration. They are after thcineinbers laying their wires. They are swarming in every day. Some of them wear beavers, and button-hole the members on every occasion. Some are seedy and don't know anybody, but just sit here and wait. When "one of them settles upon what he wants, he's just as delighted as if he had received the appointment, lie runs up and tells the watchman and then his neighbors w hat lie's going to be, and after that tlicy give him his title. They are then: "Mr. Inspector," "Mr. Marshal," "Mr. Collector," "Mr. Auditor," Ac. If two settle upon the samo place, there's trouble, and they have to compromise the matter and think over again. The great passion in Washlneton just now Is gaming on the races. There are In active operation at the present writ ing, live pool-rooms whero betting on horse races all over tlie country is carried on openly. A test caso was made last spring, but the courts held that Con gress had failed to pass any legislation which would cover the subject. Then inlluentlal New York parties camo here and. opened pool-rooms, aided by local talent. Betting on horse racing lias reached the size of a mania and tho evil Is constantly spreading. Thousands are lost where hundreds aro won. It is only a matter of a short time when the in evitable smash will take placo in Wash ington, and it is certainly only uttering a kindly wonKof caution to employes, whether under the government service or not, to see that men who are hand ling funds do not, ns tho phraso goes, "play the races." In the South of Frantfe Dr. Estachy tried to disposc-of hfs rival, Dr. Tour- natoirc, by sending him some game dosed with belladonna. Illicn discov ered he said taat it was only a little practical joke, but the Judgo did not view the matter In a humorous light, and locked the Doctor up on a chargo of attempted murder. Tho wifo and a sen-ant of his Intended victim nearly died from the effects of the poison. $1.00 AYS. FOR TUE O ABB ON ADVOCATE ONE YEAR! $1.00 New Advertisements. foggy powoir Absolutely Pure.
