The majority of Lclilghton's tax
payers have no doubt already fullj1
made un their minds which way they
intend to vote on the increase of our
bonded indebtedness and the surface
tndlcntlnns are that the affirmative
will win by a very largo majority. The
SHOO paid annually for water rent has
long been considered an unwise ex
pendltureand property holders wll!
Bfunrillnelr vote for tlio increase it
order to securo the protection for
which the borough pays. With but
few exceptions everybody seems to
favor the eroction of a public building
for a hose house, the same to have
rooms for council, and school board to
oot tier with cells for lock-uu purposes
The proposed structure will be erected
on Third street, between South and
Iron Btreets on a lot owned by the
borough. It will very likely be two
stories high and will be built of brick
In n. substantial manner. Besides be
lng a structure which will be a credit
to our city it will fill a long felt want
in every particular. We hope the few
who have arrayed themselves so con
spicluously against the increase of in
debtedness will come over so that the
result of the election on May 27 will be
unanimous. We have so often spouen
of the necessity of a building of this
kind that there is no new argument
that we can use in its behalf, further
than the fact that we jicst have the
building and accordingly overjbody
should vote for it.
POTTSVILLE is to have a SM.OOO pub
lio building.
What will Lohlghtou have ?
A WALL TAPER trust with a capital of
$20,000,000 is the latest excresceuso on
the public. Why these evils are per
mitted to grow nnd flourish is a query
only known to those who are 'in it."
That they are a vital injury to the wel
fare of the people and the country gen
erally is admitted but no effort Is made
to prevent or prohibit their growing up
and flourishing.
Orwiqsburq is putting up nnother
shoe factory.
Is Lehighton putting up anything ?
The fhidnus and supporters of Pre
trident Harrison nro considerably ex
ercised over the announcement that
Senator John Shermau, of Ohio, is a
candidate for the nomination of presl
dent. It is said that Piatt, of New
York, will deliver the goods of that
state to Sherman which has caused a
jubilant feeling among the anti-Harris
on men who are now expressing them
selves as confident of defeating the
President for renominatlou.
Emaus is building a flrst-class silk
mill.
What is Lehighton building t
The people are likely to get a surfeit
of politics this year. First came the
county convention, a littlo while later
the State gathering. From this time
on, until June, tbe National contest
will he prominent and then before the
real active work commences in Septem
ber, the Democratlo county convention
will assemble. Almost every patriot Is
willing to sacrifice himself, in .order
that tho nation may bn saved, and the
(hances are that the country will last
longer than the fellows who are so
much concerned for Its welfare.
Weatuerly Is to havo n now novelty
works.
What Is Lehighton to have?
Tom Platt, of New York, is oausikq
President Harrison no littlo worry
ment concerning the disposition of
delegates in his bailiwick.
East Stroupsburo will have a

Will Lehighton havo anything ?
It IS said that Hush Ferrv.nf A mien

What Is Lehighton to have ?
Terrexce Powoerlt put his foot in

Democratic harmony should certainly

to be valued, as they create prosperity

Matters of Local Importance to Our Po
pie. The Evan. Church Case and
lltimtncl Mailer
From the Maoxh Chunk Times.
Lost February the Iiowmanite faction
of the Evangelical Association filed a
bill in equity In tho Court of Common
Pleas of this county to dispossess the
antl-Ilowmaultes who aro in possession
of the churches of Lehighton and
Mauch Chunk. The first public step
in the great legal controversy in our
court was taken Monday afternoon, at
a special session of the April term,
called by J udgo Drehor for the purpose
of hearing argument on tbe bill. Court
opened at 2 o'clock, with a full bench.
No public notice ot tbe session had
boon given but there was a large gath
ering present, principally membors of
tho Evangelical Association. The
plaintiffs' table was surrouuded by
Hon. Edward Harvey and Hon. James
S. Blery, of Allentown, and Messrs.
Craig & Loose, of Mauch Chunk. At
tho defendants' table were Hon. Robert
E. Wright, of Allentown, and Freder
ick Bertolette, Esq., of Mnuch Chunk.
Tho remaining space inside tho railing
was taken up by tho members of the
Mauch Chunk bar, who wcro present
in full force, nnd by Evangelical min
isters and prominent laymen. Among
the ministers were Presiding Elder
Rev, W. A. Leopold and his brother
Rev. S. T. Leopold, of Allentown; Rev.
J. C. Bllcm, of Bethlchcmj Rev. J. S.
Nowhart, of Slatlngton; Rev. I. 1'
Helsler, Allentown; Rev. J. I. Yottcr,
Parryvllle, nnd Rov. Jerome II. Smith,
of Mauch Chunk, Among tho laymen
wore noticed Ex-Judge Levi S. Wentz,
of Millport, W, V. Uowmnii.of Slatlng
ton, Chas. W. Laury, of Welssport, and
James Walp, of Lehighton. All these
are representatives of tho Iiowmanite
faction. Tho other sldo was oonsplcu;
ously absent. Tho case was bofore
court on the bill in equity (lied by the
plaintiff and the demurrer to tho same
by the defendent. Mr. Bertolette open
ed the case by making tho point that,
"because tho Evangelical Association
as a corporation was not included in
tho plaintiff's bill as a party-to tho bill
therefore tho demurrer of the defen
dant ' should bo sustained." It is a
technical point pure and simple but it
was argued with much earnestness nnd
eloquence on both sides. Mr. Wright
sustained his associate claiming that
the corporation should be included
and made a party becauso the right ot
every member would be affected by
whatever decree tho court might make
on tho bill in equity. The arguments
against this view were made by Messrs,
Harvey and Blery. Both contended
that tho bill as drawn was correct. The
papers wcro taken by tbe Judge who
will ronder a decision when, court Is In
session again. It may bo well to state
right here that whatover the decision
be It will not affect the merits of the
case. Should the point made by Mr,
Bertoletto bo sustained, then the plain
tiffs will be given leavo lo amend their
bill so that tho corporation will be
made a party and then the proceedings
will commence again. Quite recently
a similar a point was made at Reading
and J udge Endllch sustained tho point.
Mr. Harvey, however, in his argument
claimed that the bills wore not Identi
cal. All the arguments yesterday after
noon wore confined to this one point.
The bill In equity was not touched
upon and Will not bo until Judge Dre-
lier's decision is handed down.
Fisher, Bruco & Co., vs. J. J. Hum
mol. Sur rule to set aside the ap
praisement of goods made under the
defendant's claim for the benefit of the
exemption law. Fisher, Bruce fc Co.,
obtained a judgment against J. J. Hum
mel, a glassware and queonsware deal
er in Lehighton, beforo a Justice ot
the Peace and caused an execution to
be issued to a constable, who made a
return of no goods. A notice was serv
upon the constable by one T. C. J.
Hummel, a brother to the defendant,
declaring that the goods belonged to
him. The plaintiffs thereupon entered
their judgment in court and had a writ
of execution placed in the hands of the
sheriff. When tho sheriff came to levy,
then the defendent claimed tho benefit
of the exemption law and a regular up
pralsement was made. Tho plaintiff
then petitioned the court to set aside
tho appraisement, making the point
the denial of ownership, when tho con
stable attempted to make his levy, dp
barred Hummel from the benefit of
the exemption. This seems to be good
law and if the denial of the ownership
were admitted by Hummol the case
would have a clear sailing, but Hum
mel denies that he denied ownership
to the constable. He saysjie was pres.
ent when a certain paper was served
upon the constable but he disclaims
all knowledge of the paper's contents.
Here is a question of fact which only a
Jury can determine, hut bow shall the
Intervention of a jury be secured! It
was claimed that this could not be done
because the case Is not analogous to a
sheriff's Interpleader. Judge Dreher
in u very lengthy opinion says among
other things that while he does not
want to say that this case could not be
determined on the present rule by
adopting such procedure of practlco as
would submit the foots to a jury yet
there Is no doubt the plaintiff may in
demnify the sheriff and proceed to
a sale of the goods. Tho petition there
fore to set the appraisement aside Is
refused, without prejudice to the
plaintiff.

1. Once more the returning spring
with its opening Mowers rosurrects the
memory of our fallen comrades and re
minds us of the approach of our sacred
"Memorial Day." We see them as they
fell when more than a century ago the
flood-tide of death swept them from
our side; we see them scattered along
our march of the passing years, some
with the dews of death not yet wiped
away and the flowers still fresh sprink
led with the tears of loved ones. Those
of us that remain are hut fow In com
parison with those who sleep beneath
the ground that shall echo with our
solemn trend. Soon wo must commit
this sacred duty to other hands; let us
do it faithfully whllo we can. It Is
timely and profitable we should ouco
agalu repair to the graved of our fallen
comrades und let the memory of their
heroic deeds baptise us afresh with
loyalty to their heroism and devotion
to their country.
Need I urge upon you that each step
aim action on that day be so fraught
with regard for tho occasion and rev
erene o for the departed comrades, that
wo shall command the respect and
commendation of every rltlami through
out the Nation,
Ltt us reverently nnd tenderly gar
land with Nature's purest and most
fragrant gift each mound where sleeps
our comrade ami affectionately think
of tho unknown and unmarked graves
of our patriot brothers, remomberlng
that In this solemn mission we have
tho sympathy and prayers of the wid
ow and orphan, and the blessing of a
grateful republic.

While It Is not likely that the leases will fall for

away, the interests ntstako are vastly stroheer

Is only a question of time In the near future
when every railroad In the country will be cow

point New York Journals should speedily revise
