Silk Mill fat Lehlfhton.
A representative tf a silk mill con
cern located at Allentown was in town
this week with a view of securing a lo
cation for a silk mill plant to employ
100 to 200 hands. All that Is wanted is
120,000 which is to be secured on the
machinery of the comnany. This
amount to be raised by the Issue of
T0, a certain number to be payable at
the end of each year. The t20.000 Is to
be solely for the purpose of erecting a
suitable building. Besides this amount
a bonus of $0000 Is wanted to pay all
costs of transferring the machinery.
The offer is a fair one and wo suggest
that immediate effort be made to se
cure the industry, or to at least look
careiuuy into tne project ana ascer
tain wnat were is in It.
Ilapsher'e Vot for Mntchlcr.
Senator W. M. Rapsher's vote for
. lion. Wm. Mutchler for United Srates
Senator has caused wide-spread com
ment. all because the Democratic Cau
cus (which Senator Rapther did not
attend) had nominated lion. George
itoss oi uucits "Jo. lor mat nonor
Senator Rapsher was not-a member of
the caucus which nominated Mr. Ross
and was therefore not bound by Its
action, ."ore-over It Is beginning to
be seriously discussed by the people,
whether so very much caucus dictation,
Is not a political nuisance, because It
crushes out the spirit of an lndepen
dent man and makes him a mere tool.
Do the neODle of this district desire
their Senator to be a mere figure-head,
a tool, a dummy, or a man who is
afraid to speak or vote for their best
interests? We Have often beard the
remark that some of our Representa
tives were seen at Harrlsburg, but
never beard. The N. Y. Sun tersely
gave senator itapsners reasons why ho
gave Hon. Wm. Mutchler a oomDlimen-
tary vote, as follows: "The Democrats
voted for State Senator Ross of Bucks.
with two exceptions. Senator Rapsher
of Carbon voted for Congressman
Mutchler, because as he expla.ned, he
Is 'the most distinguished Pennsylva
nia Democrat In Congress since Sam'l
J. Randall.' " Representative Lennon,
of Lehigh, "voted for National Chair
man Harrlty." To which we desire to
add that Hon. Wm. Mutchler is the
only Democrat In Congress, as fur as
we know, who has made any attempt to
have the National Government Insti
tute inquiry and proceedings against
the great Reading Railroad Combine.
That Is worth a complimentary vote,
without any otber merits. We have
beard Senator Rapsher criticised for
his faults and foibles, even In con
nection with this vote, but be never
pretended to claim "I am holler than
thou," but In casting his vote for Hon.
Wm. Mutchler for U. S. Senator and
defending it, he did show his pluck
and Indeuendenoe and did what we
believe his constituents will approve,
with but few exceptions.

X The Philadelphia Stockholder says:
"It the several annoancements of
Theodore Voorhees's appointment as
first vice president of the Reading
Railroad Company, It was stated that
he would have charge and direction of
tho traffle department. This is not
only an error, but unjust to one of the
most capable and popular officials In
the Reading's service Gen. Trafflo
Mgr. John Taylor. Mr. Taylor has only
been with the Reading since tho lease
of the Lohlgh Valley, with which he
was conueoted; but he has proved his
efficiency, as well as his ability to make
friends (and new patrons) and to bold
them. Mr. Voorhees's position as first
vice president will, of course, be one of
a very wide scope, but the operating
department, rather than the traffic ilea
partment, will receive his greatest attention."

A T-arg-a and Interesting- Union Meeting In
the Opera llou.. on I.att Sunday. Many
Strangers In Town.
The grand union meeting of the
Railroad Brotherhoods in the Opera
House on last Sunday was largely at
tended and of a most Interesting char
acter. The morning session was con
ducted privately In the luterests of'
this great mass of men who make up
the berolo and self-sacrlflclng workers
of the world. The afternoon meeting
was public and many of our people
tnnk advantaire of the occasion to hear
rock bottom railroad talk by men who
are up bead In the organizations, en
gineer William Hufford graoefully pre
sided as chairman. The exercises
opened with music, "Salvation, O Joy
ful Sound," exoellently rendered by
the choir of the Reformed church,
Welssport, under the able leadership
of Prof. D. W. L. Davis. Rev. Charles
Creltz, the Reformed pastor, led In
eloquent prayer, following which Bur
gess B. J. Kuntz pleasantly welcomed
the railroad boys to lively Lehlghton.
Attorney T. A. Snyder continued the
program with a well delivered address
that was loudly applauded. The Bro
therhood of Locomotive Engineers was
represented by who held
the large audience In attention for a
half hour by a plain spoken and well
delivered address on organization. This
speaker was followed by Mr. Charlee
Wilson, of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Firemen, who eloquently por
trayod railroad life Its ups, Its downs
and whacked corporations all around
tha hush for their one hundred and
one Impositions. In the absence of
Mr. William Clark, of the Railroad
Conductors, Mr. James Conroy, of
Mauch Chunk, graced the platform for
a minute In excuse of the former gen
tleman's absence. He was followed by
L. s. Coffin, president of the Disabled
Trainmen's Homo, of Chicago, who
lifted bis voice against Sunday work.
Following a vocal rendition "Love
Divine," by the choir, Representative
Biery, of Welssport, was called on. He
responded In a neat extemporaneeus
lulilrnss. rjledMns his suDDort to the
Interests of the railroad bovs in all
just legislation for their good. He
made manv friends through his re-
marks. This ended tho big meeting of
the Brotherhoods and the benediction
wax nronounced bv Kev. Creltz.
Many railroaders were here, but the
Inclement weather and Sunday work
lessened the number to fully one
fourth what it would have been under
more favorable circumstances. Many
of the visitors were accompanied by
their wives. During their stay they
were domiciled at our hotels ana every,
thing nosslble was done for their pleas
ant entertainment. Ia the evening
many of the delegates attended tbe M.
E. church where Mr. L. S, Coffin dis-
coursed.
The next meeting will be held in la
manna, nn the 20th of Arjril.
The Brotherhoods are welcome visi
tors to this town any time and as often
as they desire to come.
llere ll a Dub. Victory.
The Dubs portion of the Evangelical
Association have scored a soint at
Hastings, Nebraska. Referring to this
case the Omaha Bee of tbe lUtb Inst,
has the following Indicating the cha
racter of the decision:
"One of tbe most Important cases
which has ever been decided in Adams
county was covered to-day by a decision
made by Judge t. u. iieait, it Dears
the title of Powers and others against
Budy and others, and Is a temporary
lntunctlon. restraining the defendant
from using certain church property,
located near Kenesaw. Really, it Is a
light between the uowman-rjsner ana
the Dubs factious ot the Evangelical
Church for the possession ot this
property, By common consent tne two
factions agreed to hinge all similar
cases In Nebraska and Iowa on tbe
result of this suit The battle was
fought at the November term of the
district court, a host of attorneys from
all over the State being reDresented.
To-day Judge Beall stated that be had
prepared an elaborate opinion on tne
case, but lie had left It at his home In
Alma, lie therefore simply decided
for tbe defendants, the Dubs faction.

lou.
