soon became a general favoilte with the
reading public, lrrespctlve of creed or par
ty. Politically the CAituoN ADYocatk
was, and Is still, fearlessly Independent,
soaring neither friend nor foo In Its criti
cism of cublle acts and measures; that our
course has been appreciate 1 b'y the people
of Lehthton and Carbon county In general
a circulation of over one thousand attests
more strongly than words; as1n the past, so
we will continue to be In the future, ever
ready to protect tho taxpayers Interests and
to stand by and lend a helping hand to the
down-trodden and oppressed In every sphere
of life. From an unpretentious village flr
teen years age I,ehljliton ha3 Lept paco
with the gensral spirit of advancement and
to-dsy we And It one of the foremost towns
In the Lehigh Valley; possessing stove
foundries, furnace and carriage manufac
tories, brickyards, a pork packing estab
llshment, car spring works, a tannery, two
newspapers, four large hotels, seven uoc
tors, six churches, one bank, throe lawyers,
between fifty and sixty general stores, rail
road facilities second to none and an In
numerable number of honest Republicans,
Prohibitionists and Democrats. Among
the successful enterprises is tho Camion
Advocate, propetly appreciated by the
business public It enjoys a substantial ad
vertlslng and jobbing pationage which with
our large and constantly growing clrcula
tlon has enabled us from tlmo to tfmo to
makn many Improvements on the paper.
The Advocate office Is now one of the
most thoroughly equipped In the Lehigh
Vallv both sides of the paper being
printed at home. To patrons and friends
we extend our thanks for past favors, while
we remind them that we are still head
quarters for letter heads, bill heads, note
heads, statements, and In fact, all kinds
of job printing at the lowest cash Azures.
Subscribers In arrears are respectfully asked
to pay up, while those who borrow the Ad
vocate from their friends and neighbors
are Invited to send us their names accom
panied by one dollar,and we will mall them
tho paper fifty-two times or one year. The
Advocates Is now the largest, cheapest and
best family weekly In the county, and im
provements to be In the future promise still
more.
If this corns r of justice is not fue-
yerted at the last moment oy Got. Oslesby,
of Illinois, the Chicago anarchists convict
ed of the murder of six guardians of the
public peace at that place more than a year
ago will have paid the full penalty ef their
dastardly crime. The gronlng tendency of
the Illiterate classes to anarchism and soci
alism is a constant, and dangerous menace
. lo.Ansricaiiiiberty and the freetnstltu
tlons of this country. It Is only by prompt,
decisive and stringent measures that this
reckless disregard for the American con
stttutlon can bo remedied, and In view of
this fact It Is but meet that all who tbieat
en the public peace, by either words oi
deeds, be dealt with In full accordance will
the prevailing laws of this country. The
union must be preserved if It hangs every
anarchist In the United States; the sooner
they know this the better It will be for all
classes. The anarchist must got and the
quicker the better.
The entiiib Democratic ticket with
the exception of Charles W. Lenti was
elected last TuesJay as the Advocate con
tended It would be. Mr. Lcntz owes hU
defeat to traitorous Democrats who would
like to pose as bosses, disgruntled office
seekers and faithless friends. While ai
this time we refrain from publicly mention
lag names In connection with this exhlbl
tlon of political hypocrisy on the part of a
few Pemocrats, we do not hesitate in de
nounclnj It a low, mean and contemptible
piece of Dolitlcal jugglery unworthy the
men who played their respective parts In
the various acts. Shame, shame.
TnE Gazette mat find some consola
tion In the election of James H. Haml
werk for Register ;and Recorder, but the
Victory Is tame considering the fact thai
the editor of that journal permitted himself
to become the tool of Republican politician
in besmirching the character of so nonest,
Intelligent and worthy a man as Charles
W. Lentt, Slgley, if you can find a hole
small enough for your miserable carcass,
crawl Into it, and don't forget to cull the
hole In after yon.
Qexebal J. T Owkx died at MS
heme In Philadelphia, on Mouday. The
general was a native of Wales coming to
this country when a mere child. He was a
staunch Republican and considered one of
their ablest leaders. His military record Is
exceedingly creditable joining the army as
a subaltern he rose to the rank of colonel
and then general, and was known through
out the army as a stout and gallant fighter.
TUEBE ARE HUNDREDS OF CARBON
county Democrats who remember Col. J.
R. Fellows, as the eloquent and powerful
orator who addressed a large audtenco In
the Court House at Mauch Chunk during
the Cleveland campaign, and there will be
few, If any, regret to learn that he has been
elected District Attorney of Now York by
twenty thousand plurality.
OUK BEST HAT 18 OFF TO COMMISSIONERS
Miller and O'Donnell, county treasurer
Dolon and the balance of the Democratic
ticket. The people baye made no mistake
In electing these gentlemen to their respec
tive offices; all honest, capable and effici
ent tbey will look carefully to the Interests
of the taxpayers. The public offices of the
county are In safe bands.
As "the Carbon Advocate predicted
all through the present campaign, tho Unit
ed Labor candidates stood third In the final
result Tuesday. Our Knight of Labor
friends can rind an explanation to this fact
If they go over the returns carefully, note
the number of Individuals both Democratic
and Republicans who voted, how they yot
"d and with what result.
The nrsuLT of the election in Phtl
adelphla on Tuesday was the rebu e of cor
rnptlonlsts Leeds and Maloney, and the
leetlon of the Demociatlc ticket with good
municipal government. Correct! If there
were more Independence and less bigotry
In politics, public affairs would be more
honestly conducted.
Wim New Tobk State Democratic
the result of next year's presidential con
test will be a majority for the Democratic
candidates. As goes New Tork State prior
to the piesldtntla! elettlon so It goes for
the president.
TUESDAY'S BLKOTlOH.
The Republican figures In Pennsylvania
nre growing. Many of the counties have
completed their counts and the results
show some snprlscs, especially In the anth
racite coal regions. While several of the
counties have et to reuort officially and
can give but est I urates The Timet has re
ceived very completo reports from all oyer
the State, from which It estimates the ma
jority for Uarl at about 39,000. The final
figures are likely to settle around 40,000.

im' lev mi Letter.
Special to the Carbon Advocate. ,
As tbotlL'h thc:e was not mUfnrtnnn
enough which wo cannot avoid, a large
army of working men here, have preclpltat
ed a strike, almost at the lipr-lnnlm- nf a In
ter, which must be fraught with 'disastrous
consequences to them and their families.
Thousands of brass-wnrkera And nrlntani
are now lying about the cltt Idle; and as
most oi them, having good situations, have
been receiving good pay they took nothought
or to-morrow; each week brought In regu
larly from sixteen to twenty-five dollars,
and their motto was, "sufficient forfthe
day," etc. Strange as it may seem It Is not
a question of wages In either' case, The
printers demand that no man shall be em
ployed in any otlice who Is not a Union man
and tho emDlo ers claim the rlMit m omnln
whon they please, so lone as thev nav TJnlcin
rates. The men demand that the emplo -
ers shall wear their label, and the employ
ers absolute!. refuse to do so. No one can
foresee bow far-reachlue In Its i'mnmiiin,'P.
this strike may be. If the Knights of Labor
are suttlclently powerful It ma. extend to
ne boon binders and paper makers, to
the manufacturers of Drlnter's Inks nml
presses and everything connected with the
printer's trade. DeVInne. in whoso nrlnt-
Ing-house the strike started, not long ago.
was himself a journeyman printer in the
employ of Francis Hart. Mr. Hart was al
so a practical printer, and as his business
Increased he made Mr. DeVInne his fore
man, and on his death DeVInne succeeded
to the business. There Is not a more liber
al employer in tho printing business in New
York than DeVinne. As the work ilimn
in his office Is of the very highest class he
has no use for anything but the very best
skilled labor; the highest wages anil the
shortest hours have always been tlm ruin
at DeVInne's a fair da 's wut for a fair
day's work; but, though kind and generous
in Ills treatment of his men, In tho manage
ment of his business he is as Immnvnl.l,. n
the Rock of Gibraltar; heabsolutet) refuses
to oe dominated over by any Union, or any
representative of the Knlslits of I.W.
He will treat with his own men; but he
will not recognize any walking deleuateor
any outside commission. Thecutisequeiic
is, that as matters look now, as neither
party seems willing to Rive ay, there Is a
possibility of a despeiate and pi ol acted
strike. If the printers succeed, no nrlnter
not belonging to tbelt Union cau beemi loyed
In New York for ears to come; end If the
employers succeed, the power of the Union
Is broken In this clt never to appear as a
factor In laboi matters aaaln. The strike
is a might one, and at present It is dull
cult to tell which siO H coins to win.
The case of the brass-workers U one of

Saturday, which the employers are perfect.
ty wining 10 grant, hut not lopay for. On
the other hand, the men Insist on the piy
ur worn me no not perloi'iu. As a com
promise the employers were wllllng'to givi
the men piecework: elvlnit them the nrivi
lege of working ten hours a day, or 'sixty
hours a week, just as they pleased, but this
tho nten refused demanding a uniform
scale of wages, poor workmen to receive
the same vay as the most skilled; but the
half-hollday was the last feather that broke
the manufacturer's back, and now the
brass works an? closed all ovrr the two cllle
of New York and Uiooklyn. Illselluiai
ed that Jive thousand men are now lyln
iaie, wuose average compensation was, at
least, fifteen dollars a week. This repre
sents a loss weeklyjo tho brass- vorkers of
seyenty-five thousand dollars each week;
the strike has now been on three weeks,
and In another week the loss to these men
will be three hundred thnuaanri ,l,illr
There will be fearful suffering In their fam
ilies this winter, on account of the loss of
this money. It Is a question If the half boll
day was of the slightest advantage to them
Instead of gelng home with their wacren. ai
they formerly did on Saturday night, gangs
oi men aim ooys went off to Coney Island
or to the numerous beer gardens with
which this city abounds, and the avffnln?
was" wound up at the theatre or concert
saioon, and by Saturday midnight halt the
week's wages was gone.. But the employ
ing brass manufacturers" Bet their foot on
It; tho workmen are equalli determined.
The workmen look for aid to the Knights
of Labor, but as It will take twenty-five
thousand dollats a week to give eaeb of the
men five dollars, the ouestlon is. how lnni?
can the Knights of Labor stand It; more
particularly, as the printers are now de
manding aid, which will taketwenty-fiveor
inirty tnousand more each week. Tbe
strikers lu Philadelphia are crying for
help; a wall of distress Is beard from the
coal mining districts. These with the
striken in other cities will take, at Imtt
two or, three hundred thousand dollars per
wk to pay the bills, In addition to tbt
salary and expenses of a large army of
walking delegates, master workmen, dls
trlct deputies, clerks, book-keepers, etc.,
taking from the treasury a million and a
quarter a month. Can thoy stand it? Will
they stand It? 'that's the question l
H'ltli our oilier troubles Is the hitter fight
now going on hetween tho ll'orfd and the
Sun, both ptcjtesslng to bo Democratic.
The clrculatlortof tho Sun has been serious
ly crippled, ana the circulation of the Wurld
largely Increased. The breach beginning at
the nomination of Mr. Cleveland, has gt act
ually grown wider nnd deeper, culminating
In the Sun't bltfcr attack on the ll'orfd re
garding the nomination of DeLancey Nlcoll
for District Attorney. The World has
persistently Insisted on tbe nomination of
Mr. Nlcoll, virtually dictating the policy of
the Democratic party of the city of New
Yoik. Mr. Pulitzer Is not long from St.
Louis, and though he succeeded in getting
a nomination for Congress here, he has
never been liked by the Democratic leaders,
who have one Ktul all resented his dictator
ship. Mi. Dana saw his chance and took
advantage of It, and gave Mr. Pulitzer a
blow below belt, through the person of bis
managing chief. Colonel Cockrlll. Colonel
Cock rill had the misfortune to be engaged
In a murderous encounter In bis office In
St. Louis. A man of desperato character
came Into his office to make him retract an
article, which had appeared in the paper,
of which he was the managing chief, and
of which Mr. Pulitzer was the principal
owner. The encounter was short and sharp
and when .the people rushed In attracted to
the spot by the sounds of the .firing, Colon
el Cock rill's adversary lay dead upon the
floor. At first there was talk of lynching;
but the Investigation which followed satis
fied everybody, not governed by the bitter
est prejudice, that Colonel Cockrlll only
defended himself as an mau would under
the circumstances, and If he had not killed
his opponent, bis opponent would have
killed him. But, notwithstanding his ex-
oneratlou by the Jury, he found his posi
tion In S'.. Louis unpleasant, and when Mr.
Pulitzer purchased the World, he followed
lilin to New York and became the World h
managing chief. In his article last week,
Mr. Dana declared that he had nothing
personally against Mr. iVIcoll: but the fact
of the D'orM's advocacy of him, was lu it
self suspicious, and that It could not con
sent to hare the prosecuting attorney of
the great city of New York under any ob
ligation for his election to such a paper as
the World so. that if they wished to assas
sinate anybody else, they could have the
prosecuting attorney on their side. It was
a cruel, as well as a wicked thing to do,
but Mr, Dana did It. Unfortunately for
Colouil Cockrlll, whether justly or not, he
brought to New York the reputation of a
Western ruffian and bull; , who travelled
about with a bowlo knife In his boot, a pair
of Derringers In his pocket, a slung shot
in one sleeve of his coat and a dynamite
cartridge In the other; a man who was al
ways spoiling for a fight, and a person
whom It would he advisable to avoid. This
cnaractei of Colonel Cockrlll has been In
dustriously circulated about New York, by
his enemies, of Whom Mr. Dana is not tho
least. It Is enly just to say that Colonel
Cockrlll Is the very reverse of what he has
been painted. No man deplores the un
fortunate occurrence which clouded his
life, more than he; and while a man of
positive character and decided opinions,
a the manager of a great journal ought to
beT, he Is nevertheless kind, affable, genial,
anil well liked by tbe large staff' under
his control. But when he read Dana's
article on DeLancey Nlcoll, written in cold
blood, the Colonel tired up to white beat,
and uncorked the seventh vial of wrath;
phew I wasn't It a scorcher. If Dana's
hide Is not as thick as that of a rhinoceros,
he must have Imagined it was a cyclone
from Sheol. My, my; but didn't the Col
onel come down on him. His English is nf
tho most vigorous and forcible kind not
exactly as elegant as Addison; but fully as
forcible as Swift.
The defiance of Mr. Pulitzer of the U'orld
by the Democratic leaders of New York In
the nomination of Mr. Fellow es has raised
a terrible row, and Mr. Dana claims It as a
victory over his Austrian enemy Pulitzer.
There will be no blood spilled hetween the
rival editors, for Mr. Dana Is not a fighting
man. but the battle of pop guns promises
to be terrific.
The death of Father Kinner, the priest
who undertook to superintend the erection
of the Italian school which tumbled in
ruins, killing and maiming a large number
of people, places him beyond the reach of
human courts. His punishment has been
erilble and swift and he lias paid the pen
alt with. bis life. This will he but poor
ronsolation to the wietched families left
estltute by his criminal negligence and
Ur.orance. He openly, with the connivance
or the building bupenntendents.'vlolated a
plain provision of the law, presuming on
b s position as priest to escape the con
sequences of his act. He has d agged
tw enty or thirty poor families down to ruin,
killing and maiming their protectors, and
paying the penalty of his crime with his
own life. The offence was terrible, and
the punlshtiiHut has been certain and
swfft.
The arrest and imprisonment of Charles
G. I'ranckhn Is the talk of the city. He
was away up In society, supposed to be a
millionaire, but In plain terms he seems to
have been stealing for years, his robberies
amounting to over six hundred thousand
dollars, andworse thanall be robbed his dear
est frlendsand relatives. Now tbeyaro going
for Russell Sage and Jay Gould, the loot they
bagged amounting to three Millions. No
bail thing to take these hard times, The
squeezed several millions out of 'Goi'ld
when the.yIcked him out of the Presiden
cy of the Erie Railroad, and It must be evi
dent that he got It dishonestly or he never
would have given Itup without a struggle.
uy auu uusieii nanucuticd together on
their way to Sing King would be quite a
sight. We hao seen things quite as
strange, for this Is a very funny world.

From Washinatoa : News Notes.
Special to the Cabbon advocate.
Mr. Editor: The President has resumed
his public receptions, which have become
one or tbe features or tbe present adminis
tration. The first reception of the season
was held in the East Room on Monday last
and was largely atlencled, the. unusual num
ber of ladles present with babies In their
arms, being a conplcuous feature of the
reception. Mr. Cleveland appeared to.en
joy.bclng back again in the East Room and
was more than usuallj attentive to the
little folks.
One Is leiuludod upon every hand of the
near approach of the coming session of
Congress. Senators and Representatives
are arriving dally, and tbe annual search
for wlnt uarters has fairly begun.
There seems to he a seneral Hlnnttlnn
among tbe newly elected Representatives
to go at once to houie-ketplnj, and It is
already-jjrul that the cumber of JTr-
ahlo'houscs In tho city that arc available '
will be far short of the demand. I
At the Capitol a wonderful amount of
activity Is being displayed In p-.cparlng !
tho building for tho reception of the new
uonsress. The elevators which were
ordered at the last session, at the Hou e
and Senate enils of the building aro nearly
completed. The dust that has accumulated
during tho summer months Is being swept
away, carpets aro being put clown, and tho
paints and furniture are being touched up.
The now carpet In the House Is of a bright
green plush, which will Impart a cheerful
air to the surroundings. It has always
been customar to provide a new carpet at
the beglnlng of each Congress, and unless
It Is of the best of material there Is little
left of It at the end of the second year.
Tho carpet which was put down at the
opening of the Forty Ninth Congress was
badly worn at the end of the first session,
and was literally reduced to free wool be
neath he tramp o' the political adversaries
before the tariff discussion of the second
session was ended.
As has been expected by tho general
public, tho dcclsslon of the United States
Supreme Court In tlm caso of the Chicago
Anarchists, was rendered on Wednesday
last, and as had also been expected, the
decision was adverse to the Interests of the
condemned men. Notwithstanding the
fact however, that tho public had anticipa
ted the nature of the decision to be rendered,
there was manifested a general desire upon
tho part of, that same general public boih
Individually and collectively to he present
at the confirmation of Its prediction, and
every available Inch of standing loom will
In the court wrs occupied when the decision
of the court was announced by the Chief
Justice.
The National Capital has shared In the
general feeling ot uneasiness which has
been occasioned by the news of tho landing
in New York city of vessels from Italv,
with cholera patients aboard. It has been
the custom to discontinue the quarlntlne
service at Cape Charles dnrlng the winter,
but In view of the prevalence of cholera In
Italy, a protest has been made against clos
ing tho service this year, and Surgeon Gen
eral Hamilton has recommended ns a pre
cautionary measure, that a revenue curter
be stationed during the winter at the enter
ance of the Chesapeake Bay, with instruct
ions to Inspect all Incommlng vessels.
