who will be the next President? We don't

and tho voters of the district. Ilowever,
as tho Democracy of Carbon county would
have voted for Allen Crate so will they
stand by Bill Mutchler, of Northampton.

Foster's case was different. He stole ex

and pocketing tho money, As far as heard

ninety' eight thousand dollars. Now hero
is another case. Foster was tho son of a
rich father who gavo him every advantage
as far as education Is concerned. He grew
un a man about town: a clubman anil a
first-nighter; fond or a scrapping match,

to the opposite sex. His devotion, how

handsome bachelor establishment, His
father and his brother, both reputable busi

Two more trusted cashiers are gono to

whatever bis name Is, has jumped right
out of the court room surrounded by

TWO WEEKS FBOMNKXT TUESDAY WILL
be election day, and already the Intelligent
and patriotic voter has settled the Impor

Intelligent voter Is a xnan who reads and

men whom he thinks best qualified to fill
the Important public offices. If everybody
votes as the intelligent voter, the olllces in

TlIK FlUOnTFUI. HOLOCAST AT MUD
Run on the Lehigh Valley ruihoad last
H'ednesday nlalit was the most revolting,
blood-curdling and heart-rending wreck
that ever occui red in this section of Penn
sylvania. Imagine a section of passenger
.coaches going down grade at the rate of
twenty miles an hour to suddenly plunge
Into a similar section of coaches, heavily
laden with human being, puffing, snorting,
blowing, scattering death, destruction and
misery all around, and you can perhaps
form some conception of the horrible col
lision that In the twinkling of an eye sent
sixty souls to meet their God and severely
Injured as many more.
While tub wheat (lAMni.tKQ con

who give countenance to such "business
men," and wonder that socialists, com
munists and anarchists can exist In this
country, and that "they grow in numbers
and aggressiveness. Standard.
The Lansfobd .Record kntfjied on
Its tenth yolumo with the last Issue. Jlmmj
promises that the Record shall continue to
be saucy and Independent In Its minage
roent. Sir. Ifalloy's Idea of sauciness may
bo all right, but It strikes us that It borders
onto extreme domination at limes, ami the
peoplo don't like it. They bclievo In clear
ly expressed and unprejudiced opinions,
and the latter Is what Saucy Jimmy M.illoy
falls to Rive his readers.
OUU BOROUGH AUTHOIUTIES SHOULD
take some measures toward protecting the
property of our citizens. Robberies have
been of such frequent occurence during the
past few months that It seems not ouly
advisable but highly necessary that some
prompt and active measures should be
taken to protect our peoplo asalnst the
depredations of the gang ot sneak thclves
who have been worklug this locality so
successfully during tue past month or more'
Gentlemen, act on this matter.

at the discovery of a state of nlTalis that he
should hayo known long before
Thecashlre of Southmayd & Choate,
though In nowlso Implicated In Bedell'
crime, unable to withstand the snamo of
tho dlscraceful association with such a
miserable thief, deliberately took his life,
Expert accountants are In great demand.
Every firm wants Its books overhauled by
an outsider. I heard of an lnslaneo last
week where a bank gave an expert a thous

If any one thinks we are poor In New
York he should havo been In the Tax Col
lector's office on Monday when the sum
reached was about seven or eight millions
of dollars. One check from the New York
Central R. R. amounted to four hundred
thousand dollars', one for ono hundred and
seytnty-flve, and several for a hundred
thousand dollars. Wo spend hero each
year, for public expenses and public rob
bers, over forty millions of dollars. What
service can any man render the city that
should entitle him to one hundred thous
and dollars a year? Yet that Is what the
sheriff claims, and when election day comes
around ho is expected to plank down his
check for twenty or twenty-five thousand
All offices seem to be framed with especial
reference to election day.
The latest robber Is Jonas II. Goodman,
a lawyer, who turns out to be a very Bad-
man. Ho not only stole from his neigh
bors, but he stole from his wlfo and child
ren, no swindled his sisters, his cousins
and his aunts. No gaino was loo small for
htm, from a child's money-bank to n chinch
contribution box. Gambling was his bete
noir, and by hook and by crook he got
away with nearly two hundred thousand
dollars. In his capacity of trustees he
squandered the estate ot widows and or
phans and ruined them. If he Is In Cana
da, I can only say that Canada has a big
load of sin to answer for.
Quite a sensation was created hero on
ilfouday night by the production In drama
tic form of Amelia RIyes' novel of "The
Quick and the Dead." In regard to Miss
Rives' sensational story, which has given
her a marked placo In the literary world,
there seems to bo all sorts of opinions-
Many professed to bo shocked by It. They
think that such a story written by a man,
would have been bad; but by a woman It Is
simply shocking, and the dramatization
produced.at tho Fifth Avenuo Theatro by
Miss Clayton, a clever actress, has by no
means reconciled tho critics to the woik,
It Is true that the critics aro not always
safo guides as to what pleases the popular
taste, but from the rise of the curtain to
the fall.it was evident that tlioso presont,
who had read "The Quick and tho Dead,"
had been disappointed in the story, and
wero disgusted with the play. And non-
why should encouragement be given by the
public to this class of literature.' It Is true
there are p'enty of people who will read It,
but tho mental appetite that enjoys It is
depraved. Some of the critics say that Is
but a step from Rives' romance to Zola's
wickedness and tilth; not that Miss Rives
has actually taken that step m "Tho Quick
and Dead," but thero Is the constant fear
that she will. When good society was
taken into tho llitelorr of a high toned
French bagnio thirty years ago, and ro

BROADBRIM'S 1 Y. LETTER.
Neyer before in my memory has confi
dence been so thoroughly shaken as ll has
been In the last six weeks. Banks, saying
Institutions, trust companies, Insurance
companies and mercantile houses of every
kind are overhauling ledgers, examining
their securities, looking after mortgages
and loans. The tried services of a life,
which was once an endorsement of charac
ter, avails no longer, for, unfortunately,
the worst defalcations and robberies that
have taken place In tho last twenty-live
years have not been by novices and tyros,
but by men of tried experience, many of
them brought up from boyhood In the In
stitutions which they robbed.
It seems inconceivable that a man like
Bedell, capable of conducting the most In
tricate business of one of the most distin
guished law firms In the city, should have
gone on robbing, year after year, for the
pleasure of playing policy, and when he
sums up his losses be finds,that ho has
actually gambled away at this miserable,
low game one hundred and thirty thousand
dollars. I could understand It If It was
faro, or poker, or horseraclng, or seven up,
or any thing but policy. That Is a game
only patronized by the lowest and meanest
class of vagabonds. It Is a great game with
Ignorant negroes who dream out lucky
numbers and tben go their pile on saddles
and gigs; but thalr gambling Is confined to
twenty-five cents, or at the most a dollar at
a stake, and they go blindly ou year after
year, liut wliy lam 01 ignorance; nere was
should havo condemned and trampled
under foot. It Is to the credit of this
community that "The Quick and the
Dead" Is not a success, and if it shall serve
as a warning to Jtflss RIyes and thoso who
cultivate that class of literature, that the
taste of people of the United States is not
yet sunk to the base level of the Mabllle or
tho Chateau Rouge tho lesson will not
havo been In vain.

Well, they had a magnificent chance on
Wednesday last when the cyclone struck
the wheat pit. For months wheat has
been dragging along, a drag In tho -market
that nobody darcU to touch. Old Hutch's
corner on September wheat set Bulls and
Bears to thinking; October opened lively,
Tuesday the dry bones began to shake, and
by Wednesday tho sIoiid broke. The
Bears were stampeded early In the day ; they
hunted their holes and climbed tho trees,
but the furious and triumphant Bulls tossed
them right and left; stood victors on a hard
fought field with not a Itye bear In sight.
We are suddenly awakened from a dream
ot security, and it now looks as though the
prico of flour might be doubled this winter,
and It so, God help the poor, ll'lth coal
raised and wheat raised and other things
rising sympathy, what will become of them?
Aboye the roar of the wheat pit ilses the
yell of the election clans. Tho blaze of
torches, the rattle of drums, the bray of
born;, remind us that tlin end hath not vet
come. The fight waxes hotter every
day.
