THE QLOBIUUS IIKMOCRAOV
Aweuibly In Comity Meeting nnil Chance
the Utiles.
It was not a large meeting of the Demo
crats of Carbon county who met In the
Court Houses at Mauch Chunk on .Monday
afternoon for the purpose of considering
tbe subject of a chango In the rules now
governing the party In this county. This
would naturally leave the Inference that the
old rules are good enough for the masses.
Ilowever It was a great opportunity for a
few of the leadersln the great Reformation
to let off steam. "It wis an amusing
spectacle to see such great men at the
helm as Robert Klotz and E. II. Ranch
talking of Uie buying and bartering of the
delegatefstem and crying for a change.
Perhaps had these men not been so deeply
Interested In It the masses of the party
would have taken more stock In the pro
posed change and turned out In greater
number. Hon. Michael Cassldy, chairman
of the County Committee presided, with
Frank Sharkey as secretary. Alter con
siderable light discussion the question of
adopting the IParren County Rules was
put to the meeting and defeated 13 lo 11
a two-thirds yoto being necessary to a
choice. Next the Crawford county sys
tem was presented and defeacted the vote
standing 17 to 0. Then an amendment
was presented making the 5th section in
tbe presented rules read that the minimum
representation for each township or elec
tion dlsttlct shall he one delegate to every
fifty votes cast and wherever the fraction
shall exceed two-thirds one delegate for
such fraction. Provided, that no town
ship or election district shall have, less
than one delegate, Article 17 Is entirely
struck out and tbe apportionment of dele
gates made every two years on the Presi
dential and Gobernatoial elections:

Tllghman Halllet had an experience with
snakes which he Is not likely lo forget In a
hurry. His attention was at first attracted
by a black snake with head erect at least
six feet from the ground, and which, he
says, "was as hlg round as a man's thigh."
Jur. Halllet shot at the snake and as he
fired It gave a thrill whittle and dropped
to the ground, doing up to see whether
he bad killed the snake he was attacked
by about half a dozen otber black snakes.
He tried to kill these, and during the fight
with them broke the stock of his gun.
Rut finding that tbe snakes were too much
for him, Mr. Halllet ran for the nearest
field, some rods distant, pursued by the
snakes, Only one. snake, however, follow
ed him out Into the field and this one be
killed with the aid of his dog. This suake
measured 7 feet i 1-4 inches in lenetlu
