NOTICE TO DKMOCUATH.
Pursuant to tho Rulos of the Demo
cratic party of Carbon county. Notice
is hereby given, that the annual County
Meeting for the election of officers to
hold the Delegate Elections, and mem
bers of the County Committee, will be
held at the Court House, Mauch Chunk,
Pa, on Monday, August 15th, 1892, at
1 o'clock p. m.
FRANK P. SHARKEY,
Chairman Cabou Co., Dem. Committee.
It was "Our Ben" who pulled in the
persimmon. Now .
Mallot seems to be sutTering from
the same old campaign disease and not
unlike a cur "hollers" when trod upon.
The Republican county convention
was a very orderly conducted assembly
and was the largest the party has ever
held in this county. It shows the
party to be In harmonious activity and
the machinery .to be. well greased. A
gigantio effort will be made to turn the
county over to the Republicans. Our
Democratic brethern should take
warning before it is too late.
Monday, the Democracy will assem
ble In county meeting in the Court
House, Mauch Chunk, and every
Democrat should be in attendance and
xert every effort for a harmonious
unity that will lie the means of nomi
nating a ticket a week later
that will win by the resular old time
majority. The time for babyish
quibbling is past, circumstances de
mand that the party unite at once and
put a strong front out for the Novem
ber battle of the ballots. Now is the
time. Delay means defeat.
Anarchism Is just now getting a very
black eye. It finds no favor with any
but its misguided and mischievous dis
ciples, and now that its pernicious ten
denotes have again been so conspiou
euely displayed, and facts in regard to
the Intentions of Herr Most's disciples
ascertained, the investigation should
be pushed to the verge of extremes in
order to get at the foundation of the
Anarchist organization, for it Is very
clear that there is an organization and
that its objeot is the overturning of
listing government. Let the probe
b applied until the real depth of the
foul ulcer is ascertained. Ashland
Advocate.
An exchange thus defines a moss
back: A mossback, gentle reader, Is a
cross between the fifth century and
the fifteenth. He is found in fossilized
form in nearly every city in the United
States and still lives. He raises his
rents, detests a boom, loves to have
other people pay taxes, hates to have a
new enterprise, despises anything that
smacks of progress, and won't help a
newspaper boom its own town. There
are several varieties of mossbacks, but
none of much use to a town. They are
drones to a hive of bees, and like the
Industrious bee the live business men
should avoid these drones and patron
ize those who are an advantage to the
place they reside in.
Bubqess Ben Kuntz deliberately lu
suited the members of the town coun
cil this week by issuing an order to
Chief of Polioe . Raworth to be in at
tendance at the meeting of council on
Wednesday evening to perserve order,
There was no necessity for this, the
members of council are not a set of
cow boys fresh from the wild and
wooly west, but are gentleman ot in
telligence and in possession of a full
share ot practical common seuhe. The
cauncilmen may be In division on
some questions, but as we look at it,
that is none of the Burgess' business,
He la simply elected to preside over
the meetings ot this body as president
and to do as he is instructed to do by
this body. When he over-steps this,
he usurps his power and should be sat
down upon. People not familiar with
the circumstances and condition of
affairs will imagine, when it is learned
that an officer of the law must be called
to the council meeting, that the conn
cilmen are a set of rowdies and roughs,
when the fact Is just the contrary.
Our advice, and it is friendly, would be
that Burgess Kuntz go slow, he might
put both feet in it he has one foot in
It now.
THE KKFUULIOAN OANlpUATK.
Who Is and Where II Comes From.
"Ban." J. Uuuts.
Benjamin J. Kuntz first saw the
light of day on the 4th day of April, in
the year 1818. He was educated in the
school of Easton and at Dlckluson
Seminary, Willlamsport, and later ho
received a business training at East
man's Business College, Poughkeepsie,
a. r, leaving school he found occu
patlon in his father's leather tannery
at Ptteraville which passed into his
hands on his father's death and which
he conducted for about six years with
great success when a disastrous fire
burned him out and left but a remnant
of a former well developed fortune.
"Ben." still had pluck and perseveranoe
and in 1871, backed by his friends, he
bought the Olewine tannery in this
city which he runs successfully to-dav.
He has a family, a wife, daughter aud
on, and lives pleasantly in a hand
some and cozy home on the corner of
Second and Alum strata. Mr. Kuntz
is filling the office ot burgees for the
third term.

STATE HATTERS IN BRIEF.
Hie Ileal ol Neva Culled From a Multi
tude of Bources.
The excellent condition of the State
Treasury not only justifies the pay
ment this year of the entire appropria
tion of 15,000,000 to the school districts
of Pennsylvania, but after this great
obligation shall have been met the
publlo exchequer will have at least
K,000,000 to its credit.
At 3 o'clock Saturday morning un
known persons broke into thedwelllng
of Clias. Stovitch of Scranton, and shot
both Mr. and Mrs. Stovitch. A ball
passed through the thigh ot the hus
band and the wife was shot twice In the
right thigh. The shooting was done by
three men. Tho case is mysterious.
The remains of a man were found on
Mount Penn, near Rondlng, Saturday
A watch bearing the Initials, "C. M. S."
and a revolver, with one empty cham
ber, were found.
A dispatch from Lancaster says that
Joel Miller, 10 years of age, of Ephrata,
has bones of such brittleness as to
make it dangerous for him to Indulge
In even ordinary occupations ot life.
Tho other evening one of his legs was
broken, while he was walking on a rail
road track, making it the fourth time
his legs have been broken. Ills arm
has been broken three times.
James K. Louden, aged 56, at one
time the leading dry goods merchant
of Altoona, dropped dead In that city
Monday while calling on a friend.
Arthur Crott, a Pittsburg tinner,
swallowed five ounces ot carbollo acid
on Sunday in mistake for wine and
died in great agony Monday morning.
George Crouse, a flagman in the em
ploy of the Pennsylvania Railroad,
after having flagged his train at Valley
Creek, near Downingtown, Monday in
attempting to jump on the engine was
thrown under the wheels and Instantly
killed. His home was in Philadelphia.
Simon P, Uachman, a prominent con
tractor and builder of Easton, has
failed for upwards of 10,000, and has
made an assignment tor the benefit of
creditors to Daniel L. Kntz, his head
book-keeper. Uacliman lost heavily
in big contracts for city and county
work. He has gone West, leaving many
anxious creditors in tho lurch.
The streams and wells in the Pan
ther Creek Valley have been poisoned
with the germs of typhoid fever. The
disease Is rapidly spreading. At Cres
sona a number of cases have been re
ported, several of which will result
fatally. The residents in the valley
depend on the springs and streams on
their properties for drinking water.
Physicians say that the germs ot the
disease are contained in the fountain
heads of the streams.
An organized band of tramps in the
northwestern part of Lancaster county
last night raided the village of May
town. The houses of six of the most
prominent citizens were entered and
considerable booty secured. The rob
bers were fired upon at the last place
entered and beat a retreat. A posse of
citizens is now in pursuit, but no ar
rests have been made.
THE NEW UAIXOT LAW.
There are many things connected
with the new ballot law that the voters
should try and become acquainted
with. The following which has been
sent out by the Democratic State Com
mittee will help in instructing them.
It will be wise for the voters to cut
these things out of the payer so as to
have them to refer to. Tuesday, No.
vember 8th, 1892, will be election day.

The first glimpse we get of an eastern
walled city unfolds at once memories of
our childhood days, which have perhaps
never been awakened since, and the pic
tures of our childish books, which im
pressed themselves so vividly upon our
minds, are reproduced in the bright col
ors of old, when we are brought face to
face with the quaint battlements and
the dark gateways, with the accessories
of bright, burning sunshine and tur
baaxl figures and processions of camels
and the listless calm of the tropical land,
Such old cities are still to bo seen in In
dia, still walled in the old fashion and
still peopled by the figures ot the Biblical
picture book.
Closely akin to them are those walled
towns standing on the canals of mid
China, passing through which, say at
the close of day, when every tower and
tjvery roof stands out clearly cut against
the brilliant western sky and we are
challenged by a grotesque figure, armed
with a spear and probably wearing
armor, the illusion is complete, and for
the moment we find it hard to realize
that we are traveling at the end ot the
Nineteenth centnry.
Even in much changed Japan there
are old cities which still retain their wall
ot the age of feudalism, and in the very
heart of the capital the imperial palace
ii surrounded by the same quaint forti
fications which in old troublous timet
made it an lmperium in imperio, al
though the walla are crumbling and the
gates are never shut, and the moat have
been abandoned to the lotus and to carp
of monstrous alze and fabulous age.

t The Reading railroad will In all
likelihood put on fast through trains
from Scranton to Philadelphia when
Its new terminal station lu the latter
place is completed. At present It taken
about six hours to get to Philadelphia
from Scranton. It Is proposed to cut
this time down considerably by having
the new trains stop only at Wilkes
Barro, Mauch Chunk, AUentown and
Bethlehem.
t The Buffalo extension ot the Le
high Valley railroad, from Sayre to
Buffalo, a distance of 283 miles, has
been practically completed and formal
possession will be taken and the oper
ation of the road begun between now
and September 1.
t The Lehigh Valley Railroad Com
pany have provided a Sunday operator
for the station at Qleu Onoko. Qeorge
Enbodythe regular operator will fill
the position on Sunday.
t Some Idea of the extent of the
Philadelphia & Reading's freight-business
can be obtained from the last re
port of the Northeastern Cur Service
Association. It is for July and shows
that 531C car loads of freight were
handled at Bethlehem. This does not
Include merchandise, transfer, or
through freight, but simply what was
received In car load lots. It is again
as much as was handled at AUentown
and over two thirds more than as Eas
ton. AUentown received during that
month 2170 cars aud Easton 3007 cars.
Scranton, the largest city In the dis
trict, handled only 2301 cars.
X The Reading is enjoying a prodi
gious through freight traffic from the
west. From midnight until noon Mon
Jay 250 cars of grain passed Bethle
hem. The majority contained wheat,
but there were also vast quantities of
corn, malt, and rye. It is mostly for
export. Each car contained GOO bush
els of grain tor half a day. This traffic
does not exceed the dally quota. For
the past several weeks about 300,000
bushel of grain have been shipped
dally over the Lehigh Valley from
Buffalo to Jersey City.
The Reading oompany is gradually
doing away with ashes and coal dirt as
ballast, especially on the main line.
The tracks are being raised from four
to seven Inches, and stone ballast is be
lng used. It was found that the heavy
locomotives were too hard on the
tracks where ashes and coal dirt were
used and a more substantial ballast was
found necessary.
$The P. & R. freight departments
are being supplied with new seals. It
Is a new device and stamps the name ot
the station on one side and the Initials
of the P. Sc R on the other.
t The Car and Car Wheel Works at
Fullerton are rapidly closing up their
contract with the Lehigh Valley Rail
road for 2000 box cars started upon
last May. Less than 200 remain to be
completed, the hands in employ turn
ing them out complete at the rate ot
about 18 per day. The Works have no
other large contract In prospect, and
It Is likely that they will have to come
to a stand still in the near future. The
establishment is of a vastness beyond
any in the Valley, having a capacity of
finishing up complete HO to 150 box
cars per week, of coal cars treble
that number.
