The Carbon Advooatii's caption
"How will It work?" on the J.ansford ife-
coroTs article on the president judgeship
for this district In our last Issue has
brought out one. fact, namely: "Bob"
Klotz has numerous wire pullers ready and
willing to throw their Influence with blm
for a re-nomination of Judge Droher, aud
proved another fact equally as Important,
viz: That the rink and file of tho party are
not with him for thesamo ourpese. They
bellevo that the honor belongs to this
county, and In this connection the Caii
Boir Ap,vooatb places the name of TFI1
llain M. Kapshcr, of Afauch Chunk, to the
fore, without his knowlcdco or consent,
but because we believe blra fitted, In all the
essential requirements, for the important
position. Learned, experienced, a man ol
tho people, In tho very prime of life, he
would make a iudge creditable to Carbon
county and her people. Let tho Demo
crats unite on htm to a man and put the
honor and office where it belongs.

be without Its moral to that class of in
ulylduals who have no regard for the
sanclty of home or the virtue of our women.
That the women did wrong to take the law
Into her own hands there is no question,
but tho culpable neglect of the law to
punish thejo high-toned roue's for offences
of this class perhaps hurried her to mete
out that vengenco for broken health In
mind and body and a ruined reputation
which he so richly deserved. We have
heard tho women's side of tho story, a
pitiful tale of deceit, hypocrlcy, scheming
ilevlllshncss, destardly Intrigue, broken
promises, tho usual sequel to the plannlngs
and plotting of Individuals who rush
women Into shame and depredation,
trampling on taws Human and divine, for

TnE annual report of First Assistant
roslmastcr-General J. S. Claikson shows
that tho total number of postofllces In op
eration on July 1, 1689, was 58,699. of
which nnmber 2,083 were presidential of
fices. The whole number of appointments
of postmasters for tho year Is shown to have
been 20,030, of which 8,831 were on resig
nations and commissions expired, 7,853 on
removals, 603 on death of postmasters, and
2,770 on establishment of postofllces.
That the political hurricane on the
fifth of November didn't altogether "do
up" Mabono of Virginia Is evident from
the fact that ho Is now carrying on a
spirited fight with all his old time vim and
vigor for the making of a postmaster of his
oVn choslng in the city of Richmond. It
Is worthy of observation thatJahone Isn't

words he don't take to his hole to keep It,
Bank street, with all its mud, Is the
worst thoroughfare In the town and has
eyer been. For the past month It has
driven business away and caused a dead
oss of hundreds of dollars to the public
olng business on the thoroughfare. It Is
a tiresome subject to refer to because It has
been a useless one thus far. Nov, gentle
men, apply the scraporl
It's an ill wind that dou't blow some

Broadhcad gets bounced from the Phlla

Capt. Samuel VTchr. ef Summit Hill, and
the political janborlee continues and the
offices go where they belong.
It has been suggested that the town
council should adipt measures for th
planting of trees on tho "upper" park.
A very c Id, and It should bo acted
on at the carl' '.it rmvient.
BROADBRIMS U. I mil
Art came in with c rush this week, and
all New York and his wife, who have been
on the tiptoe of excitation for months,
have been gratified by a peep at Millet's
Anzelus. Tho day of the press ylew I
went no to the American Alt Gallerler ti
peeling thit at least, for the few hours set
apart for that purpose, I should meet none
but iny fellow scribes. The purpose of the
first Fall opening of the Ametlem Art
Galleries, was the exhibition of the Btrrle
collection of sculptures aud bronces by tb&t
celebrated master and of Illustrating the
condition of art thirty years ago. But the
rush was so fearful that I postponed my
visit to a later day, for It was Impossible to
ice the works of art with any desire of
pleasure or to form a discriminating opln
Ion concerning them. Qui as I Mood at
the door and saw men and women pushing
and sq'ueetlng to get In I, could not help
asking myself, 11 bat Is all this about? Not
one In a hundred of them had ever heard
of Barrle or his art, but everyoue of them
had hetrd of Millet. Not one In twenty
knew much (.bout Millet. They could not
have told you wbetherhe was an English
man, a Frenchman, a Dutchman or a
Swede, but they all knew that he had
painted a picture called the Angelus, and
that It cost the lucky possessor one hun
dred and twelve thousand dollars, and
they wanted to see It. Aany no doubt
went In expecting to see a magnificent can
vats that would coyer the side of a wall,
instead of which It Is a small picture that
a man might carry off under his arm.
Later on I shall have occasion to speak of
It more fully, but I confess In advance that
it Hill take me some lime to discover
where, on a canvas 22x28, you can put on
Jaundrtd and twlv thousand dollars.
Now, recoiled that thl tnoney was not (
paid by some unrse-pioiid amateur with ,
man who Is posted lu ever) thing connected .
with art and who has handled and sold as
many flue and expensive pictures as any
other art dealer In the country the man
who sold Jules Breton's .Communicants at
the Morgan sale for forty-five thousand
five hundred dollars, and who got from
Walters of Baltimore eighteen thousand
dollars for the Teach Blow Vase, making
It the most costly piece of bric-a-brac of .Its
size In tho world. I refer to Mr. Sutton,
one of the proprietors of tho American Art
Galleries; and right here conies a question
which lms set the art world all aflatno and
which, like tho ghost of Banquo, will not
go down. If the Angelus had been brought
here for sate It would have had to pay a
iluty or nearly luirtv-rour thousanu dollars,
bringing the price of it, landed In New
York, at nearly one hundred and fifty
thousand dollars, In fact fully more If we
count freight aud Insurance. But tno
Angelus is admitted free of duty to be ex
hlblted and sent back, and the art dealerj
hero complain that while It is here osicn
slbly for exhibition it t.eally accomplishes
all the purpose of a sale for Us fortunate
owner, who will exhibit It here and proba
bly make fifty or seventy-five thousand
dollars by tho exhibition, and then If it
goos back they go scot free of the duty,
This the other art dealers say Is n manifest
injustice, as they are compelled to pay the
duties, thirty-three per cent., before tbey
can open their pictures and put them 00
exhibition, and then tbey have to take
their chance of finding a buyer. The gen
ernl sentiment appears to be In favor of
the abolishment of(all duties on art In
painting or sculpture, and a yery strong
effort to that end will b made in the next
Congress.
This week I strolled oyer to Castle Oar
den, the.gr'eat emigrant depot of the Am
vrlcan Continent: It Is a strange place
and jou never realise it more than when
four or five steamers arrive In a single day
They land a conglomeration 0: every ua
tionallty, of not only Europe, but also of
Asia and Africa. It may be called the
emigrant custom-house for here the car
goos are examined, and are passed, If
found worthy, and if not they are sent
back. But. It yery often occurs that the
Commissioners of Emigration, wno'by the
way aro a lot of pot-house politicians who
owe their position to their pull, mistake
the extent of their powers and constitute
themselves as a sort of moral police. They
are continually fighting among themselves
tho hardest battles being for the bonts
which they can throw to their Individual
followers.
But one of the most remarkable uses
that Castlo Garden has been put to Is as a
matrimonial agency, and the matches mad
there annually is by no means small:
Only a short tlmo ago the keeper of the
lightship outside of Sandy ITook came to
Castle Garden looking for a wife, his oh
ject being to secure a cook, and at th
samo time to pocket the emoluments that
the Government offers for that nscful per
son. It suddenly occurred to the gentlo-
man having charge of the matrimonial
branch of the service that he-had seen
that ancient mariner there before "Many
a time and oft." On being questioned 1:
acknowledged the fact that this was his
fourth requisition, and that his last heart
sease was a stout Irishwoman who bad
succumbed to the inevitable, and started
up the golden stairs exactly three weeks
beforo ; her predecessor was a Swede and
his first a Dutch woman. But the light
ship afforded no chance for flirtation or
disphy, nothing but cook, cook, cook and
scrub, scrub, scrub and the eternal mur
mur of the "sad sea wayes." Now a pas
senger at sea, however long the vojage,
has come hope of getting ashore, but from
the lightship there was no release but
death. The ancient mariner had a tolera
bly easy time with his first two consolers,
but when he secured the affections of Miss
Bridget McCarty he struck a snag which
made him wish himself Jn paradise or
Fiddler's Green a hundred times. Bridget
did not belong to the meek and lowly like
his first two wives, with them he had
things all his own way, bo l the honeymoon
was hardlv over till sho made his life a
burden, when death stepped In again and
made him a free man- Bridget was a holy
terror, so no more Irish need apply, Num
ber four, I believe, is an Italian, fo late
news from the lightship. One applicant
sent a letter some weeks ago:
Dllouth, Sept. twenty. Deer snr, Jis

This week an old Irish farmer from Con
necticut who said he bad eighty thousand
dollars, applied for a wife freth from the
ould sod, bat up to Saturday he had failed
to find exactly the article he wanted. The
arbitrary power exercised by these Com
mlsiloners In sending persons back has
been one of the crying scandals of the city.
Only '"t "tfk a woman was sent bark on
the allegation that she was au alien and
likely to become a public charge. She
came here many years ago, and lived with
her husband In New Jersey. A son was
bom to them, then the husbend was taken
sick and died, and the woman went back
to Scotland with her child; two weeks ago
she returned, and was ordered hack to
Scotland by tie Commissioners. Htrson
w&t a nttlve born American citizen, and If
he got &s lucky a lift as Turner, the young
iceman, who three weeks ago wts driving
an ice cart, and now Is nominated by Tani
many for Congress, this )oung expatriated
citizen might one day occupy the seat re
cently warmed by G rover Cleveland and
now filled by Benjamin Harrison. An
apnea! was taken on the mother's behalf
to the tecrettry of the Treasury, and Mr,
Wlndom with his level head decided at
once that there was no power within or
without the constitution to turn a native
bom citizen from our Rat". The attorney
returned back from M'asbington beaming
with smllee aud prepared to annihilate the
Commissioners, but when he arrived in
New York he found that his client had
been shipped back to Scotland three days
before. The Infamy of this ruling Is right
here. Eyery week or two a cargo of Mor
mons Is shipped for fialt Lake. One half
or more of these are assisted Immigrants
whose passage Is paid by some one, and
who have not a dollar In their pocket 1.
Among thcin are hundreds of young girls
who have been gathered In by the tlderj
and missionaries. Yet these aro psstei
wUhout question. UaTe th. salaU got .

Tha docks are all rented by tliecltj.ex-

had no Idea, and I thought I was fl on
tuost things about town, thai, a Dock Cora-
mtsaluuer was such a good billet, There
was a dock to let which should havo been
put up by public competition,' but this
particular dock was not. An Italian
gentleman from Tlpperary be the noltne av
O'Brien got a letter from a Judge to one
of tho Commissioners, and O'Brien got
tho wharf at a rental of six thousand
dollars, for whlcb a dozen parties were
willing to pay twenty. IKlien this was
discovered there was a hustling about to
find Mister O'Brien, but O'Brien could not
bo found; ho might have gono back to
Donegal or Sllgo, butalthough the O'Brien
family is prolific In New York this, particul
ar O'Brien that rented tho wharf had
vanished. 'Then It was hinted that his
name wasn't O'Brien at all. It might
have been Smith or Brown or Flnnegan,
but not O'Brien. Aud It now looks as
though tho job was put up by some onejn-
side the Commissioners' office, and a nice
little operation started by which a favored
Insider gets fourteen thousand without
raising a single hand. In the course of
tbe investigation. It transpired that one
Individual had added thirty-nine thousand
nine hundred dollars to his bank accoun
during tho year. Not a bad plum that.
Yet that Is only ono of a thousand ways In
which this city is robbed.
It looks at if we were going to have an
old fashioned lecttiro season like that we
used to have twenty years ago, Miss
Amelia B. Edwards, whose novels and
contributions to archeloglcal research
have given her a world wide reputation,
has been lecturing In Brooklyn or Egypt,
She brought out the most distinguished
compmy that has been seen at any public
gathering for years. Aside from her
literary ability the Is socially a great sue
cess. We are now enjotlng a season of
great business success. Everything
booming, and the subscriptions of the past
week warrant me in saying that the
World's Fair will bo held In New York

The following letter-received by T. D,
Thomas, of Bank street, will not prove un
Interesting to our many reader who may
linyc wrong Impressions of this, that and
tho other concerning Florida's sunny clime
Dear. lino. I Intend to Kite you a dscrlp
tton of Florida as I had promlsad you In my last
letter. ,
Since order and system are necessary for the
successful accomplishment of tuifr purpose, we
Intend to commence with the soil and. give Its
surface, composition, natural productions, &e,
streams, climate, then to describe the artificial
productions or the agriculture, concluding with
the people
The boll Is of the marine formation, and like
all suoli formations, the surface Is generally
level. It lies upon a limestone of coral lornia-
tlon. The term sandy applied to Florida soil
misleads western and northern people. It con
tains no clay or aluminum as a northern soil
would, but Is almost pure silica or clean sund,
After washed It is similar to the sand used In
the north to scour tinware. It Is very fine and
worthless for plastering or making mortar for
General work. After o heavy shover It looks as
if slight snow had fallen on the urouml, and
the writer was Uccelved by It several times
when leaving thahouso In the evening. When
wet It docs not become muddy, as there is not
enouch aluminum lu It to make It adhesive. Tli
soil cantaliis but very little eze tubM matter, as
that is annually washed away by the spring
rains. The writer has seen soil upon which tlio
pine leaves mid grass have fallen for centurU-
as while as tho paper upon which this Is print
cd. A saltier remarked to the writer, upon be
ing questioned In regard to fertilizing, that the
ruin carried ItHway. Fair (?) crops caul-
raised by fertilizing, but we will leave that for
a succeeding letter.
Persons In the northern 8tates might enter
tain the idea, an the writer did, that the oninc
grew wild, as the plum, apple and cherry at the
north, butthovare hlghlv mistaken. Attn
places only did the oruige grow wild and thos
were worthless for eating; they were bltteror
sour. The sweet orange might havo been
grafted on them had tlftJt' known It, before they
destroyed almost half of the trees.
Another Idea slight prevail In northern minds
that Is also a misconception, tf orthern people
might Imagine that the soil produced an Innum
eraDie nost oinowers to crown with a many
colored crown the nreensward with which
had already decked Itself; but that is far from
the truth. Hardly any flowers Brow In the
woods and very little grass, hard In textute,
worthless for fodder, but when young growi
anywhere; only whan nearly starved will cattle
eat It; when matured they prefer the tops nt
young pines. It Is round and slender In shar a.
similar to bulnsh, but very hard. When It Is
voting cattle grow fat on It.
Instead of orange trees laden with goldin
fruit, we find tall pines Inlhehichlands, cedar,
oak and cypress in the swamps. Tho cedar Is
valuable for the manufacture of lead pencils and
considerable It cut In the State for that purpose.
Qyprcssdoes for building when no other aan
be had. The pine Is most numerous and is
botanicallj known ns Tmus juoiha or pitch
pine. As a building material It Is almost worth
less for nutsido work.when a better can be had.
For Inside work It makes a very nice furnishing
material on account of It coarse grain and sap
pores, which give It a very beautiful color. It
is not ta the yellow pine sent north. That Is
the fine grtlned or selected pieces. Water v 111
not remove tha pitch tela tha noithern pine.
Tho wood Is very heavy and brittle and when
burned gives forth a smoke as soft coal. It is
affected by the least moisture, aud quickly
attacked by worms. In moist placed It soon lie
ros. Even a mortlss covered would decay
completely in a few years, so lam told, It la
s Id here for SlO pci' M, and some Is shipped
north. It Is plentiful, but the marketable treos
n'.e s scattered that lumbering Is not profitable.
Cirotei containing Stty or more trees of this
sort are occasionally met with, but it generally
is dispersed araong the smaller timber. The
Irees vary In size from a small sapling to those
thirty Inches In diameter. From Iilchmoud to
Gainesville, Fla., the writer did not tee a sec
tion worth purchasing. The route traveled was
the Atlsatie Coast Line running throiujb .torlh
and South Orollns, Georula cud Florida. All
along the route the same uniformity of growth
was tlslUle and none worth purchasing foruuy
purpose whatever.
Such la tho condition of the southern timber,
so much spoken about b) northern papers and
speculators, vet the writer does not Ish to con
demn their report as hi saw but tho Eastern
partlonsof the states passed through; though
he li certain that Florida has none but such as
he described.
As an Illustration of the lumbering Industry
in this state, w mention the sale of a mill cost
ing roco but a year old, and yet U sold for the
sum of uno hundred and five dollars. No one
wished to buy it, though It was In nn excellent
condition, as all said It was tbe surest thing lo'
banarupt a man In the state. The most had no
money to purchase, had tbey wished to do so.
There are more mills than there Is a demand
for lumber and tbey can be bought all 01 er tho
state for mere trifles. One or settlers remarked
that n saw-mill vas the surest thing to lank?
nipt a man that there was In the state.
As an Investment for the present or the
future Florida offers no Inducements lu tim
ber, vet or anything else as the development of
the ttn.te Is very slow, and will continue so for
tluetocome. Certain towns In the southern
part of Ihe state are boomlng.and might offer In
ducements In other lines.
In Justice lo all concerned wo must say: If
you want to move (o Florida, fliitconu and see
foryouttelves; but bring money enough along to
return home It you douotyou may,be compelled
to stay In a very undesirable place. If you do
not bring monev enough along, take photograph
