The Republican Gounty Convention of
Carbon County will bo licld at tbo Court
House, Mauch Chunk, on Monday, Sept.
17, 1888, at 11 o'clock ft. ra., for tlio pur
pose, of nominating 3 Congressional Con'
ferees, and candidates for Assembly, Asso
ciate Judge, rrotuonotary, Sheriff, Cqro
ner. and Jury Commissioner. Tho dele
eate elections will be held In tho various
districts on Saturday, Sept. lGth from G to
8 p. m. James Keifeb,
Chairman.
Amr consideration ron a ciianou of
rules to gorcrn Democratic nominations in
Carbon county was out of tho question at
the Democratic convention on Monday,
Hon. Michael Cassldy's resolution to leayo
the matter.of adopting tho Crawford conn
ty System of rules and regulations govern1
lug nominations of candidates to a voto of
the pcoplo at the next primary election was
obstructed and defeated by amendments
amendments to tho amendments and sub'
etltutlons until the sensoand spirit of tho
resolution proper was chaos to the great
mass of delegates. It Is this manipulation
of affairs that the Advocate wants to seo
done away with by tho adoption of tho
Crawford county System, dr we are gener
ous enough to ondorso any oth'
er system that docs away with tho present
system of delegate nominations, whereby
tho will and power of only a fow aro repre
sented against tho honost sentiment of tho
many. Tho present system Is not Demo'
cratlc, It Is not honest to tho great mass of
Democratic voters, for whllo It represents
the sentiment or will of tho bosses It pre
vents tho nomination of men who oftlmcs
aro tbo people's chotco but aro not In ac
cord with tho bosses. There can bo no
denying this. Hero at homo delegates aro
elected and Instructed to yoto for this or
that candidate to the exclusion of some
other aspirant for office who maybe just as
intelligent and capable, just as worthy of
favors from the party as is the first man
but becauso ho falls to represent or voice
the sane opinions on matters, perhaps, as
does tho bosses, he must not bo nominated.
As it is hero, unfortunately so it Is in al
most, if not all the borough and township
election districts in tho county. Is it right
is it just to the great mass of Democratic
yoters that this dolegate juggling should go
on? If it is just, then the Advocate is
willing to sdbmlt to it, but with a know!
edge of the corruption, and prostitution of
tho will of tho peoplo In mind it cinphatl
cally denounces the present delegato sys
tera, as frequently carried on, to be unjust
and against tho better sentiment of tho
Democratic party and the voters as a whole.
The question of changing tho rules govern.
Ing Democratic nominating conventions in
Carbon county Is not dead. It is a live
issue, one that demands and secures tho at
tention of voters all over tho county.
will assume greater proportions when the
yoters onco thoroughly understand what
tho Crawford county System'mcans. Politi
cal juggling must be stopped, and It will bo
stopped eventually by honest purposo over
coming the bosses.
There was an election down In Afaino on
Monday, and tho returns next day showed
that Blaine was still giving tbo Democrats
a pain.
The much lonqed ron and anxious-
ly awaited letters of acceptance of Qroyer
Cleveland, Democratic nominee for Presi
dent, and Benjamin Harrison, Republican
nominee for President, were received this
week. Both letters are valuable political
documents and mighty interesting reading,
Benjamin Harrison says that the mean
Ing of the present issue cannot bo obscuicd,
It Is not a contest of schedules but an issue
of wlde-apart principles. The assault upon
our protective system is open and defiant,
Protection Is assailed as unconstitutional
and vicious In power and that the Mills bill
is only a step in tho direction of freo trade,
He opposes the Importation of contract
labor and believes firmly in tho enforcement
of the laws relating to Chinese immigra
tion. Mr. Harrison boldly opposes trusts
and all forms of combinations, and heartily
favors pensions to soldiers and sailors.
Qrover Cleveland boldly takes tho position
of his party on the great issues of the day,
and calls for a reduction of tho present un-
. just and heavy taxes that so oppress the
great mass of laboring people. ITe views
gravely the accumulation of ldlo funds In
the treasury vaults and states the results
will have on the business and laboring in
terests of the country if it is allowed thus
to accumulate. "True to tho undevlatln
course of the Democratic party," saysPres
ident Cleveland, we will not neglect the In
terests of labor and our workingmcn."
The ticket tut in nomination on
Monday by the Carbon County Democracy
is a very good one. Heading off with
gentleman of intelligence and capability
such as Mr. Charles H. Scldlc, of Normal
Square, has the reputation of being and
tailing with that solid, llfo-long old Demo
crat, Nathan Stomler, of Towamenslnc, for
Jury Commissioner, the Democracy can
well feel proud of tho work of its represen
tatives in conycntlon assembled. On the
local page of to-day's issue wo publish short
sketches of the candidates which will prove
Interesting reading.
Special to the Oaiwon Advocate.
BROADBRIM'S 1 Y. LETTER
As fickle as a woman, is a favorite figure
of speech. But why a woman? If there
Is thing on tho planet more fickle than a
man I. have yet failed to discover it.
Pour weeks ago a Jewish synagogue here
was besieged by thousands of pushing and
screaming Jews, all Intensely anxious to
get a sight of and hear the new orthodox
prophet of the house of Israel and Judah.
To those who had charge of the learned
Rabhl's first appearance tho demonstration
may not have appeared novel. In Russia
ft Jew or Gentllo priest is regarded far dif
ftrntly from what he Is in the United
States. Rabbi Joseph had been used to a
large ami devoted following in Russia, and
the Russian Jew clings to all the old moldy
and threadbare forms or his faith with an
Intense constancy, in comparison to wblcn.
our modern rellgeons bave few parallels.
The Russian and Polish Jews on arriving
in New Tort were shocked at tbo hetreo
doxy of Iartol'a jons and daughters. They
went Into Dr; Gottshlel's magnificent
Temple Emtv.juel on the Filth Avenue,
and to their horror saw men professing to
be Jews sitting before tho Holy of Holies
with their heads uncovered, and beside
them In their pews their wives and child
ren. They no longer wore tae Talas which
had been the distinctive sign of the ortho
dox worshipper for courtless generations.
All these, things filled their hearts with
grief for with them tho strength of Juda
ism lay In Its forms and ccromonlcs, and if
they wero abandoned they Bald to them
selves wo might as well become Christians
at on co.
In Russia was a Rabbi learned In the
ancient-law. Tho Talmund was his sheet-
anchor, and ho was regarded at homo as a
prophet. This was Rabbi Joseph, whose
debut four weeks ago set all Hebrew New
York wild. As I said a moment ago, the
managers of Rabbi Josoph must bayo un
derstood tho Rabbi's strength and tho ex
citable character of tho peoplo thoy had to
deal with, for thoy asked for a detail of po'
Uco. Twonty stout policemen In chargo of
sergeant answered tho call, whilo the cap
tain ot tho precinct hovered around to see
that his troops were in fighting order; the
polico wero all armed with their long night
clubs, and as circumstances developed, It
was a wise precaution. All the doors and
avenues to tho synagoguo wero carefully
guarded; stout trustees and others holding
the iron gates and admitting the excited
.worshlppors one at a tlrno. Al last the
pent-up excitement burst all bounds, and
then came a wild rush of tho excited mob
that crowded towards tho door. Tho polico
leaped to tho foro and tried by coaxing and
threats to roll back tho fierce fanatic tide
that struggled and surged towards the
tabernacle, but entreaty and threat weio
allko In yaln Your English or German
Jew will listen to reason; but a Polish or
Russian Jew, who has been kicked and
cuffed In his own country, on arriving in
the United States proceeds at once to take
possession of tho land and everything In it,
They heaped abuse on tho officers and then
began to throw stones. American flesh and
blood could stand It no longer, and then
the long night clubs began to swish-swash
fetching a head at oycry crack. It was
strange sight in front of a temple, and ono
that I hope never to seo again. At last the
street was cleared and tho wounded carried
away, and thoso insido tho synagogue
feasted their eyos and their cars on the new
prophet, but the ovation ended thcro and
then. Rabbi Joseph is a failure.
The English, German and American Jews
aro a bright, sharp, progressive race, eager
to keep" up with tho times, standing fore
most In allbranchesof trade.and commerce,
living like their christian neighbors, be
longing to all tho clubs and associations
accepting all their surroundings wltn ease
and grace, and avoiding everything that
would seem to make, them a distinctive
people. The better class of Jews hero de
slro to enjoy their religious privileges just
as the Catholic. Methodist, Baptist or Pros
byterian does; but then ho don't want to
carry religion Into the store, or hotel or
theatro any more than his Catholic or Pres
byterian neighbors. But your Russian and
Polish Jew lives In au atmosphero that
smells of Jerusalem and still groans oyer
Assyrian captivity. This gives Rabbi
Joseph his distinctive character and his
value. Last Saturday this high priest.
whom thousands fought to seo and hear
iour weeks ago, preached to a house only
half -full; I should not be at all surprised to
seo him go back to Russia within tho next
six months, for ho is a woefully disappoint
ed man
Another caso of man's fickleness is Henry
George. Two years ago ho wits the ccn
tral figure of this city ; no meeting was com
plcto without him; wherever he went ho
was followed by thousands and thoy cheered
him till thoy were hoarse. Tho other day
I was on a Broadway car and nenry Georgo
sat In cno corner reading a newspaper. I
thought I would tost his popularity, so
asked the conductor who he was; the con-
tluctor was ono of thoso polite conductors
that you read about In society novels, and
replied, "I'm d d If I know and I'm
d d if I care I" I inquired of threo others
but nobody know him. Alas I alas! for
fame I What an unsubstantial shadow It is.
Some time ago. near tho Fifth Avenue
ITotcl, I met Father McGlynn. I thought
every ono knnw lain,. He stopped to talk
with a friend for a moment, and I asked
tho policeman on tho beat who ho was; ho
eyed him carefully and then said, "I guess
he is ono of thoso country gospel sharps
that's attending tho Methodist Conference
up at tuo Metropolitan Opera HouscI'
asked a cabman who he was, ani) the cabby
guessed bo must bo a preacher of some
kind. Ilcrc was a man whoso name ono
short year ago rang around tho world who
was followed like a demigod by frantic
thousands; the man who defied Rome and
made fun of the Pope,and notono in a thous
and knew him even by sight. The multl
tude had deserted hlra; ho was no longer
the idol of the pcoplo. The man's vanity
had wrecked him, and in a short tlrno
even his namo will be forgotten as a public,
political or religious factor.
Another popular Idol that man's fickle
ness has deserted Is tbo slugger John I.
Sullivan. I recollect ono night a few years
ago struggling up to tho box-offico at
Madison Square Garden with a two dollar
bill In my hand and trying to get a seat,
I did not get the seat, however, for when
I got in it was "standing room only."
only imagine that I hear some of my
country friends say, "Oh, Broadbrim, do
you go to those horrid exhibitions, and
pay money too?" Yes, I have to go, in
order to get the nows for you. Well on
that night thero wero between fifteen and
twenty tnouianu peoplo lucre, and some
mighty good people too. "John L. Sullivan
was tho central figure. No king on his
throno ever received a more cordial or
hearty ovation. Few kings were as well
paid; for bis half -hour's work he received
nearly fifteen thousand dollars, and Tug
Wilson got five thousand for not getting
knocked out. Thousands of dollars nightly
wero paid all oyer tho land to seo this
drunken ruffian ; but he, too, has had his
day, and If not killed In somo drunken
brawl, which Is likely, he may yet be
found around some low saloon about tho
docks cleaning out spittoons for his whiskey,
and running tho growler with an oyst er can,
Vorlly, verily, this Is a fickle world.
As I was walking along Chambers street
a couple of weeks ago, a funeral cortege
rushed by In unseemly haste; it was the
last ride that Canny Lyons was to tako up
on earth. The coffin was of magnificent
rosewood, with sliver handles, and was
literally buried in flowers. Five carriages
filled with mourning friends followed this
youthful murderer to his grave with the
pride, pomp and circumstance of a hotter
man. Dauuy bad been a thief and an out
law from his boyhood; ho strovo to emulate
tho ruffian prowess that made Dan Drlscoll
the Whyo leader a terror. Though ho had
done time In States prison and Hie peni
tentiary he r till found his way Into tho
local plc-ntcs and parties and had his
admirers among tho looso girls of whom
Beezy Garrahan was a type -such as were
the principal attractions at Billy McQlory'
Thso Allan's and other halls of like Ilk.
It is the custom hero to giyo murderers
that are bung a good set off at tho funeral.
I recollect ono about ten years ago, who
murdered a policeman, as desperate and
cowardly a ruffian as ever stretched hemp.
On ono bright Sunday afternoon, he, hav
ing been hung on tho proceeding Friday,
was followed to Calvary Cemetery by one
hundred and twonty canlagos and flvo or
six hundred peoplo on foot. Such exhibi
tions aro torrlbly demoralizing, and with
our yellow-covered lltciaturc, keep our
prisons full all tho tlrno.
Labor Day has come and gone, and for
tho first timo in our history It really had
tho appearanco of a general holiday. I was
glad to seo tho general observance, and
especially glad to see the mannor in which
everything Went off. Never before has
labor made, such a splendid and Imposing
show, and especially grateful was It to
know that tho revolutionary elements
wero given to understand that they could
not and should not rulo tho working men
of the United States. I know no other
land where such a procession of tho labor
clement Is possible In no other could bo
found sueh a well-dressed, healthy, hand
some looking body of workingmcn. As
battalion after battalion swept by with
heads erect, all well clad.elcgantly; no sign
of want ; all proud, oroct, well-fed and per
fectly independent every man looking
abundantly ablo to tako of himself It
seemed like tho veriest farco to hear frothy
politicians talk of' down-trodden labor,
That may do for England, Ireland, Franco
or Germany, but not In tho United Slates,
Old glory was tho only flag that waved
oyer that magnificent procession. It was
a crand and Imposing sight, and ono that
must havo mado the heart of eyery worn
Ing man who saw It, beat quicker and
prouder as he said to himself, these are the
men that have made this nation what It Is
to-day tho best country on God's footstool
for tho working man.
