OEORUE "W E3BEH'S case.
To tho Editor of tlio Advocate: Since
thcro aro soma dissatisfied Democrats, be
cause Mr. Essor was renominated for Pro
tbonotary, I desire to briefly ctvo a few
reasons wby bo should bo rc-clectcd. Let
every fair minded man woll consider
tliem.
Firstly Becauso bo did positively
plcdgo himself that be would under no clr
tumstanco bo a candidate next time.
This meets squarely what somo people re
gard as tho greatest objection) that Is all
those who object-to keeping one man in
ofllco forovcr, as they put It,
Seconiy Because Mr. Esser has made
and will make a competent and well tried
official for another and final terra, no has
served tho pcoplo faithfully and ably; and
tboy cannot afford to bo doprtrcd of his
cxperlcnco and' abilities, becauso a small
minority, through prcjudlco and ignoranco
oppose him.
Thirdly -Bccutso Mr. Esser Is a good
citizen, and is poor becauso ho has been so
liberal and generous with his friends.
Fourthly Because this may bo tho
main reason why tho font Gazette Is so
earnestly tolling Republicans that they
must not vote for Mr. Essor, but that
Democratic fools should by all means turn
In and vole for, and help elect tho Republi
can candidate, who will bo "rnisH haw
material," and without experience.
Democrats and Republicans do not be so
foolish.
Fifthly Becauso ho was nominated
fairly and squarely, and practically without
opposition, and moro than all he is well
fitted and qualified, (and this is after all
tho great and Important thing to the peo
ple at largo;) therefore what valid reason
can any Democrat have for not supporting
him? Or for that matter any Republican
either?
Answer mo please.
An Inukpknpkxt
We clip the following rr.oM the
Pleiad, of Albion Collego, Michigan:
"The old college friends of Ilr. M. Rapsher,
now of Mauch Chunk, Pa., will bo pleased
to notice tho article by him, "Dangerous
Trusts" in thu North American Hcvleto for
May.', Mr. Rapsher will bo remembered
as the President of tho "Clover Follows
Literary Society," and tho part ho took in
debating "such questions as "Negro Suffcr
age" and "Is Langnago of DlvImr"Origln?"
He left hero for his early homo In Pennsyl
vania 22 years ago."
Ex-PnEsmr.NT Cleveland how does
that sound? Mauch Chunk Gazelle.
A little bit loo previous.
The ticket put in nomination by
the Republicans at Mauch Chunk on Mon
day is a fair ono geographically and charac
teristically considered. It is a strong ticket,
too, one that will yerv likely poll many
Democratic votes. Eddlo Mulharcn, the
nominee for Assembly, Is popular and cap
able, so Is J. L. Gabcl, tbo nominee for
Prothonolary, and it will bo woll If the
Democrats do no too lightly undor-cstimato
their strength. Tho campaign, formally
opens from Monday, tho warrors with war
paint on are in tho field and tho great han
dicap for public ofllco starts off. May tho
best men win.
TnE CONGRESSIONAL CONrEltENCK TOR
this District has been adjourned to 'Wednes
day, October 8rd, at Stroudsburg. Hon,
Allen Craig has chosen for his conferees
Hon. Robt. Klotz, of Mauch Chunk, lion.
A. J. Durllng, of Lchlghton, and Hon. J.
J. Gallagher, of Beaver Meadow. Mr.
Craig is pre-eminently qualified to mako a
first-class and able Congressman, and the
gentlemen who' will represent this district
in Congressional conference on tho 3rd of
next month could do no better than to
make him the candidate of tho old tenth
Legion Democracy.

Lawfonl Iicconl In G. ir. Esser and
C. II. Scldle tho people of Carbon county
hayo an opportunity to yoto for two good
men. Mr Essor makes ono of tho best kind
of officials capable, courteous and atten
tive. InMrScidlo tho pcoplo of Carbon
county havo an opportunity to voto for a
good honest juan, and ono who Is In every
respect qualified for tho position of As'
sociate Judge. Voto for Seidle.
There Is no issuo in this county between
free trade and protection. Tlio issuo is be
tween excessive and reasonable taxation.
Between tho present war tariff and a reason
able reduction. Between free raw material
and protection on manufactures and taxed
raw material and protection goods. Any
man or newspaper that says this is not true,
lies, and does It for tho purpose of deceiv
ing and cheating the pcoplo of tins coutry,
and for no other purpose; but It will fall as
sure as tlmo continues. Mltfonl Dispatch.
The American system of protection has
made this country tho envied nation of tho

list. Mahanoy Record. ( if ;)
After the worklngmcn of tho North
have given thousands of their precious llycs
and undergone hardships and suffering be
yond measure, to free tho southern negro
from slavery this Is what Milton Turner,
one of their leedcrs says: "Tho negroes In
terests are with tho party that advocates
tariff reform. Why should ho voto to keep
up the wages of a New England factory
man whose trado union boycotts him? He
is a producer of cotton and other raw
materials and under a protective system
ultimately pays a tax on his own labor."
This fellow, Milton Turner, Is actlngastho
President's tool In tho organization of tho
colored voto in favor of tho Democratic
party. Exchange Hep.)
The average rate of wages has greatly
decreased within a few years past, has prov
ed by tho investigation of a committee of
Congress, although the tariff has been
higher than ever before. Wo may Infer
from this fact that tho tariff does not bene
fit the wge-earners. Tho fact is, tho men
who are peculiarly benefited by the tariff
and who demand its contlnuanco have do
graded labor and reduced .wages by employ
ing Imported contract "pauper labor" from
Hungary, Poland, Italy, etc.
Ohio Is somewhat excited over a report
that Judge Thurman Is to bo forced off ths
national Democratic ticket to make room
for a younger man. It is strange that any
body should be alarmed at such a story.
The Democratic managers would much
rather havo their party die a natural death
lu November than to cut Its throat now,
and the latter is just what driving Thurman
off the ticket would do for It. iVe.
Everything of iinpoitance that tho farm

BROADBRIM'S 1 Y. LETTER,
Ten years ago In all of this great city no
two names wore better known than thoso
of Gcorco Law and Jcsso Hoyt. Botli had
been Identified with tho city's business tin
dcrtakings and speculations for many years,
and both had succeeded In accumulating
seyeral millions of dollars; both of them
had succeeded also In earning tho uetcsta-
tion of their fellow men by lives of mean
ncss and oppression, so that when dcatli
overtook them there were no mourners
nothing but expectant heirs, who were
mostly dlssappointcd in their taking off. In
many respects there was a wonderful re
semblance between tho two men; tho na-
tures of both were grasping and pitiless
debtors were pursued with ferocity till tho
uttermost farthing was paid; forgiveness of
an obligation was unknown to them; pen'
urlous In their style of Hying, it seemed to
bo the business of their lives to pinch and
screw and add to tho golden pile, which
they expected would bo their monuments.
Jcsso Hoyt was a general speculator In pro.
ducc, and George Law was mixed up In
many great undertakings with steamboats
and railroads, and at tho tlmo of his death
was tho owner of tho lease of one of the
principal ferries between New York and
Brooklyn. IPiillo George Law llycd tho
ferry-houses wero tho most wretched wrecks
and tho ferry-boats were disreputable old
hulks, that dally and hourly threatened
the lives of tho passengers. Prayers and
entreaties were allko In vain. Whllo tho
passengers suffered George Law piled up
tho dollars that ho ncycr could enjoy, and
ho kept on piling them up till ono day death
camo knocking at tho door. His family
was small, consisting only of his wife and
ono son a young man whoso recent per
formance at Saratoga has sot all New York
agog.
When old Georgo Law,' after accumulat
ing several millions.' was called to his final
account, this hopeful young gentleman was
tho only heir to his enormous wealth. Ho
had hardly laid his father In the grave, and
got possession of his bank book, when ho
started out to 'seo the world, which up to
that moment was as much of a blank to
him as the Mountains of tho Joon. Ho
mado the acquaintance of a pack of gam.
biers, prlzo-fighlors and fast men, and tho
fact that somo of his choice associates bad
sorved time In States Prison, seemed rath
cr a recommendation than a detriment
One can easily understand, that with un
limited means and with such company,
there was not much on the shady side of
life that this modern Caligula did not see.
The prlzo ring, the racc-courso and the
gambling-hell knew him well, and in their
support his millions flowed llko water. The
crowning act of shame and folly took place
last week at Saratoga, whon ho Inyltcd a
party of gamblers aud toughs Into a saloon
and sent for a prominent jeweler of tho
town and presented the entire crowd with
diamond studs aud rings, tho aggregate
yalue of which was nine thousand dollars.
Georgo Law left a colossal fortune, but If
his heir is not restrained by tho courts and
his property put In tho hands of trustees,
ho may yet share the fate of "coal-oil John.
ny," and become a saloon bummer, living
on the memory of his former wealth.
Tho heir of Jcsso Hoyt Is not more fortu.
natelvlthan tho heir of Georgo Law. Her
unfortunate habits led to her incarceration
in a lunatic asylum just beforo her father
died, and her conduct just previous to his
deccaso was worso to him than the bitter
ness of death. Desiring as far as posslblo
to securso her against the chances of pover
ty, he left the Income of a million and a
half of dollars for her in trust. She has
mado a desperate and determined fight to
get possession of the principal, but so far
without success, and just now she is keep
ing out of tho road of tho New York courts
for fear of being adjudged a lunatic. The
man who had wrestled with his fellows In
tho battle of life, who cornered the market
on wheat and corn, who gloated oyer his
success whllo ruin was allaroundhlm, died
miserably, regarding his only child as his
bitterest enemy fearing the sight of her at
his dying bed. These two heirs are all that
remain of two of the richest men In New
York twenty years ago.
A genuine sensation was the arrival in
tho city of tho Democratic candidate for
Vice-President, the Hon. Allen G. Thur
man. Whatever may be our difference In
regard to parties, thcro can be no question
about the hold that tho grand Old Roman
has on the u.ass of tho Democracy, and
New York turned out to glyo him a rieut
royal welcome. But about that welcome
there wero some very singular features,
which to an outsider seemed anything but
democratic. I know we havo a tough pop
ulation, and it Is necessary that good order
should bo maintained; but the manner in
which that order was carried out merits
tho severest condemnation. It is safe to
say that thcro is not a man or' woman in
New York who would hayo offered the
slightest offenco to Allen G, Thurman
but the polico acted as if his life was In
danger, and drove the crowd back as If he
was in fear of assassination. After his ar
rival at tho Fifth Ayenuo Hotel, cordons of
polico guarded every ayenue of approach,
making the hotel look as if It was lu a
state of siege. When General Jackson
visited New York sixty years ago, he rodo
on horseback tho entire length of the city
without a body-guard, except such as the
hospitable citizens gave him. The saino
may bo said of General Grant, General
Sherman, General Sheridan, and hosts of
other great men; and asldo from eyery
other view, it was entirely undemocratic,
and was a bitter disappointment to many of
Mr. 'J hurman's admirers and friends. His
reception at the Madlsou Square Garden
awakened the wildest enthusiasm. No con
queror ever recoived a heartier or more
generous welcome, but his sudden sickness
was a griovlous disappointment.
Tho cool weather has brought back our
vagrant pastors and teachers, and onco
moro our schools and churches aro open,
Tho arrival of tho Rev. Dr. Talmago in
Brooklyn, after his two month's holiday,
was tho signal for a regular jubitcc. After
traveling thousands of miles and preaching
two or three times a day, and as ho says
himself, shaking hands with 100,000 pcoplo

It is just two weeks ago slnco a funeral
cortego rolled into Woodlawn Cemetery,
Thcro wero three carriages and a hearse,
beautiful white lllllo coffin, all covered with
gold and pretty whito plumes, and the llttlo
coffin insldo was burled with beautiful

costly affair with silver handles, and the
elegant stiver plato oil tho top recorded tho
fact that within lay Daisy Boll, born April
21st, 1884 ; died August 20th 1887. Eyery
thing about tho Intormcnl was entirely cor

had died of pneumonia. Ashes wero ren
dered to ashes and dust to dust, and Daisy
Bell was quietly laid to rest. Bitter tears
wero shed over Daisy Bell's mortal remains,
