BOOMING JUROE RICE.
Action Taken by tho I.uzcrno 15nr Asso
cintlon to I'rgo Ills Appointment to tho
Appcllnto lloneh.
The high respect nnd esteem which
the members of the Luzerne Cuunty U;ir
association feel for Hon. Charles E
Rice, president Judse of tho Luzerne
county courts, was never better shown
than yesterday norm, when the asso
ciation held Its meetino; to urge tho
claims of Judge Rice for appointment
on the apellate court bench. Alex
ander Farnham -was chosen ns chair
man of the meeting;, and Joso-pli 1,
Coons secretary. Mi. Farnham In as
suming the duties of chairman, pnld
hljrh tribute to the learning and qualld
cations of Judge Rice, and said that his
record as Judge of the lower court am
ply qualified and recommended him for
the appellate Judgeship.
Hon. II. W. Palmer recommended
that a committee be appointed to fur
ther the object for which the liar nss
elation was assembled. There has been
In this county a feeling that it was not
proper to ask for tho appointment of
Judge Riee to an office which did not
exist, but thera are now about forty
applicants for tho position. W'hilo
Judge Kice has not yet been formally
presented as a candidate for the posi
tion, It is understood at ilarrlsburg
that his name will be presented. Mr.
Palmer further recommended that a
committee of twenty members of the
bar be appointed and that they have
power to appoint Bub-commlttees
among- themselves, to use every honor
able means to further Judge Rice for
the position.
Mr. Palmer then presented the follow
lng address to Governor Hastings:
To the Honorable Daniel H. Hastings,
Governor of Pennsylvania:
The members of the bar of Luzerne
county respectfullv comnS'nd the Hon
orable Charles K. Rice for appointment us
one of the judges of the appellate court
and herein set forth the reasons that seem
to them sufficient to Justify their action.
Judge Rice has served as president Ju-lge
of Luzerne county continuously since Jan.
1. ISSfl, nnd the record of his conduct anil
judgment affords the best and most con
clusive evidence of his fitness for a higher
place. He has shown himself to be a wise
nnd upright Judge, filling tho scriptural
standard, "quick to hear, slow to speak
and slow to wrath." lie has known no
creed, party, rank, station, Influence or
prejudice, but has Judged the people right
eously without fear or favdr. He Is in the
prime of vigorous manhood, has great
capacity and disposition to work. Is pos
sessed of a Judicial temper that enables
him to hear and consider before deciding,
nnd of rare ability to justify his Judg
ments In opinions rcmnrUi'.ble for clear
ness and strength. Of Judge P.lcj there
Is but one opinion where ho is known.
Other judges, lawyers and h s fellow citi
zens regard him a a conspicuously able.
Impartial and upright Judge. He is a Re
publican, twice elected In a Democratic
county, but no one has ever had reason to
know from any Judiclr.l action to what
pariy he belongs. We suggest that the
great anthracite counties in which a pecu
liar business is carried on that furnishes
much and Important litigation not under
ptandible by judges unlearned in Its tech
nicalities, but In which Judge Rice has had
largo experience, ought to have represen
tation on the bench of the new court and
that he Is pecuhtrlly fitted for the place.
The appellate court will, as we believe, bo
useful to the state just to tho extent that
it commands the respect and confidence
of the bar and people, therefore no con
sideration .save that of fitness for the place
should properly be entertained In select
ing the first Judges, Upon this basis wo
present with confidence the name of tho
Honorable Charles K. Rice, believing
that he Is without a superior among the
common pleas Judges of the state and thnt
his appointment will meet the approval of
the bench and bar, and people and aid
dignity, learning and strength to the ap
pellate court.
The foregoing address was adopted and
the following committee was appointed by
the chairman: F. W. Whenton. E. S. Os
borne, K. H. Chase, I. P. Hand. J. T. Lenn
han, E. O. Itutler, A. R. Hrundage, O. W.
Shonk. C. W. Kline, O. L. Halsey, J. M.
Carman, CI. K. Powell. George fl. Ferris,
8. J. Strauss, W. C. Price. 8. R. Miner,
George IT. Troutman, O. W. McAlarney,
John McGahren, Hon. E. P. Kisner.
Immediately at the close of the bar
meeting the committee went Into ses
sion, choosing F. W. Wheaton chair
man and E. H. Chase secretary. They
decided to allow the chairman of the
committee to select sub-committees of
two each to solicit recommendations
of Judge Rice's ability and fitness for
the position from the bar associations
of the different counties of the state.
The secretary will also have a petition
prepared asking for Judge Rice's ap
pointment, and signed by citizens as
well as members of the bar. Mr. Chase
will act as press committee and attend
to ithe thorough circulation of the peti
tions. The meeting then adjourned,
but will meet In the Bar association
office at 7.30 o'clock this evening, to re
ceive notice of assignments, which will
be made by Mr. Wheaton.
Mr. Rocs for Kccordcr.
Mr. Herbert Y. Reese, of the Record,
has determined to be a candidate before
the Republican county convention this
year, for the nomination on that ticket
fur 'recorder of deeds. Mr. Reese has
'always been a , firm Republican and
would doubtless get the -solid support
of his Welsh friends In the convention.
"3 here Is no man better known In Lu
zerne counity, among his own national
ity, than is Mr. Reese, and he -would
bn a strong candidate If he should be
mrnlnated. A t any ra te, he has a good
advantage In being first In the' field
frr this pleasant and lucrative office,
and If he really desires to run he should
net fall to promptly follow up the ad
vantage thus gained.
' Flooding tho Mine,
On Sunday last It was decided that
the only way to quench the fire that
Is consuming the Interior of the Port
Jjowkley mines would be -to flood the
mine, and on that day work was begun
laying he pipes and making ready for
tliet flooding. Two large pumps have
toen located at the river, half a mile
ftway, and watef. will 4e pumped Into
he mines directly from tne river. It Is
estimated that It will take at least a
week of continuous work before the
fiames will be subdued. There have
been a larger, number of brattices put
In the mine since the fire first, broke
out In order to prevent the flames from
spreading to the other parts of tho
mine. The fire is likely to provo the
most serious and dlfllctilt one to handle
since the famous South Wllkes-Uarre
blaze.
STATE DELEGATES.
Thoso Who Will Represent I.uzcrno in tho
Prohibition Mute Convention.
A number of Luzerne Prohibitionists
met at the odlce of Kmmett D. Nichols
In the Lanlng building yesterday after
noon for the purpose of selecting dele
gates to the Prohibition stats conven
tion, to be held In tho city of Pittsburg
tomorrow and Thursdny. The Prohibi
tion brethren are always hnrmonloua
and when It comes to selecting dele
gates to a state convention It Is only a
question as to who Is willing to go. At
the meeting yesterday the following
were chosen: '
William H. P.ertels, Henry S. Watts,
John II. Dando, J. H. Evans. Fred.
Vinnncomb and R. I. Nichols, Wilkes-
Harre; Charles H. Cool, IS. S. Kmory,
Dr. T. M. Johnson, W. H. Jackson and
Mrs. A. M. Holvey. West I'lttston; Rev.
W. H. Hiller, Parsons; J. F.. Mareey and
John Schaffer, Ashley; tleorge A. Filter,
Plymouth: Rev. T. M. Furey, Wanamle,
and George A. IVhle, Sugar Notch.
If the other counties of the state Fend
proportionately strong delegations, the
Prohibition state convention will bo a
very large gathering, as well as a very
able one. Neither of the old political
parties will be represented In Its state
convention by a dclegatlonhalf as strong
In any respect as the above. The Pro
hibition's of Luzerne certainly send
their best and ablest inea to the state
convention.
Oiiny County Once More,
Today for the last time the eyes of
anxious Wllkes-liaiTlans will bo turned
toward Hnrrlshtirg and await with
such patience ns they can command
the actum, of tho legislature In the
Quay county bill. If the bill Is not
cabled up today it will be heard of no
more nt the present session of the legis
lature. Recently reports have reached
here that Senator Quay, during his late
visit to Harrlsburg, gave his faithful
followers In the legislature to under
stand that he desired the new county
bill passed. If the senator has really
done this few doubt that the bill will
go through with a rush. Recent events
have very clearly demonstrated that
Senator Quay need only say what ho
wants and It Is done.
The new county bill has been post
poned so frequently that the oppon
ents of the measure here had little ap
prehension that it would pass, and not
until the latest rumors about Quay's
orders to pass it was Interest revived.
Today will settle the matter some way.
Nnntlcoko's Can Jidntes.
Xar.ticoke Is going to turn out an un
usually large batch of aspirants for
places on the Republican county ticket
this year. There are not les than
three for the office of Sheriff alone, and
It is not certain that all the wards of
the town have been heard from. The
announced candidates are C. E. Jones,
J. D. PcRrick and 'Squire Samuel
Powell. All three of these gentlemen
have done efficient party service In the
past and have probably over and over
again earned recognition. It Is unfor
tunate that they should all seek tho
same office.
Wreck on tho Valley.
Testerday a slight wreck occurred
on the Lehigh Valley road at Highland
Junction, by which traffic wns de
layed several hours. Engine No. 110
was pulling a gravel train down the
siding and by a mistake ran upon the
main track, crashing Into engine No.
357, which was pulling a passenger
train. Roth engines were derailed and
Engineer Van Wormor, of the passen
ger train, was slightly hurt.

County Medical society will be held to
morrow evening at the society's rooms
in the Hollenback building. The sub-
iect for discussion will h "Tho Pres

A cure for every disease
In New York City, for five con
secutive years, the proportion
of Deaths from Consumption
has been three in every
Twenty Persons.
Rpidetnlcs of Cholera, Yellow Fever and
other diseases of similar character, so ter
rible in their results, occasion wide spread
alarm and receive the most careful consid
eration for their prevention and cure, while
consumption receives scarcely a thought,
yet the number of their victims ninks Into
InsigniGcaiice when compared with those of
consumption. Comparatively few people
know what to do for their loved ones when
they sec them gradually lose strength, lose
color, manifest feeble vitality and emacia
tion, or develop a cough, with difficult
breathing, or hemorrhage. Cod liver oil
was for a long tunc given in all such cases,
but the poor aucccas attending its use
coupled with its nauseating taste lias led
many practitioners, as well ns the public nt
large, to place their main reliance in Dr.
Pierce's Golden McdicuWDiscovcry. It de-
serves earlv attention and will prove effect
tial not in every case but in a large percentage
of cases, and wc believe that fully qS pet
cent, of all cases of consumption can. if taken
in the early stages of the disease, lie cured
with the "Discovery." Dr. Pierce docs not
nsk people to believe until they have in
vestigated for themselves. A pamphlet haa
been published having the names, addresses
and photographs of n large number of those
cured of consumption, bronchitis, lingering
coughs, asthma, chronic nnsnl catarrh and
kindred maladies which will be mailed free
to those sending for it with their name and
address unnn a postal card, or you can have
a medical treatise, in hook form of 160
pages, mailed to you, on receipt of address
and six cents m stamps. You can then
write those cured and learn their experi
ences. Address for nook, World's Dispensary
