Says That Many Illcgul Votes Wcro ot
for William II. Farn.
Attorneys C. C. Donovan and 51. J.
Dona hoe. representing Patrick Coyne,
of Mlnooka, Lackawanna township,
yesterduy morning tiled In the ollli e of
Clerk of the Court John 11. Thomas u
petition to the court for a contest to be
instituted imaiust William H. Kern, of
the Archhuld milieu, for the office of
supervisor.
At the flection held on Tuesday. Feb.
IX, ISHli, two persons were to be elected
us supervisors of Lackawanna town
ship, anil the result was that James
Ward, of Jlooslc, received 4'.t;! votes:
William II. Fern, .VJO votes; Patrick
Coyne, SS4 votes, and Adam Fassliold,
li.jll voles. Ward and Coyne were the
Democratic candidates, and Fern and
Fassliold were the Republican candi
dates. The petition for the contest sets forth
that Fern has been returned as having
received a greater number of votes cast
at the said election than Coyne, which
return, it is alleged, Is false, undue and
illegal, for the reuson that Kern was
returned as having received HIM) voles,
whereas, according to the petition, he
should not have been credited with
more than 340 votes.
WOULD HAVE ELECTED COYNE.
This would have elected Coyne by
fortv-foiir vutes more than rern. 1 He
Kpecllieations of fraud uie more clear
ly set forth us follows: rnat rern re
ceived certain votes in the various dis
tricts of the township from persons not
uualilied to vote for the reason that
they were not registered In tho respec
tive districts in which they voted, und
did not make or lile legal proof by
means of ailldavlt as the law re(iiires.
in the Northeast district twenty per
sons voted who were not rcgirteied nor
did they make nllldavll; in the East
dlrtrict there were two of this (lass;
In the South district there were thir
teen, and in the West district, fifteen,
making in all a total of fifty persons
who were not registered and were al
lowed to vote without making alllditvlt.
The petitioner believes that the votes
thus enumerated were cast for Fern
and received and counted for him and
that they should bo deducted from the
return of the said flection, which, if
done, will entitle Coyne to the ollice of
supervisor. The petition Is signed by
thirty-six citizens of good standing,
who reside In different parts of the
township. They are ns follows: Martin

Clever Farce Interspersed with Specialties
nt the l rotbinchnin.
"Delmonlco's nt C," brightened and
remodelled since It was seen here with
Marie Jnnsen as the stur wasjiroduced
at the Frothinghum last evening. It
is more of a farce and has a greater
number of specialties than when seen
here before, and as produced last night
by a company under the management
of J. 51. Ward Is very entertaining.
Miss Ollie Evans assumes the role of
Frixie Hazehiicre, queen of the Vaude
ville, and is so clever thnt she suffers
little by comparison with her prede
cessor in that role. Miss Jnnsen. Spe
cialties are introduced by Miss Evans,
Nellie Dunbar, Bella Vivian. Cora Bell,
the Hart sisters. Charles F. Jerome and
E. J. Dallon. The specialties are ex
cellent, and with their addition to the
originally clever farce, "Delmonlco's a.t
6." furnishes several hours of real
amusement. It will be repeated this
afternoon and evening at the Frothing
ham. Clobo Hotel.

The assertion of those who' Were In
strumental in killing tlie ordinance
regulating the depositing of city funds,
that i politics was behind the ineusure
Is shown to be a very lame excuse for
causing the death of this most excellent
ordinance, for un examination of the
minutes of councils yesterday revealed
the fact that the orlglnutor of the idea
was u Democrat. Victor Lauer. select
man from the Twenty-llrst ward. If
the mere fact that the ordinance was
Introduced long before It was known
even who the candidates would be, is
not sufficient to still the cry of "poli
tics." now raised In self-defense by the
ruthless slayers, this later development
should certainly silence that excuse and
compel the foes of the ordinance to ad
mit the true reason of their opposition.
It was way buck In November that
the Idea of doing something to throw
additional safeguards around the city
treasury llrst occurred to Mr. Lauer.
He gave the matter some consideration,
and after laying Ills views before coun
cil, Introduced a resolution directing
the finance committee to frame nnd
present an ordinance covering the
ground reviewed by him. This wus
done, and In December the ordinance
wus presented and In due time passed
with a few slight amendments without
any objection being raised by the Dem
ocrats. 5IATTEU OF CONGRATULATION.
While the ordinance wns on its way
through select council 51r. Chittenden
took un especial interest in the meas
ure and frequently spoke in its favor.
In one of these sneeches he took occa
sion to remark that it was a matter of
cougratulati'.'ii that the ordinance was
introduced al a time when no one could
have any grounds for saying that it
had any' political connection. At un
othcr time when the measure was
threatened with delay by some over
zealous supporters who wanted to make
certain unnecessary amendments to it.
Mr Chittenden anil others argued
against It, saying that If the ordinance
was allowed to hang lire until election
time it would lie In danger of death at
the hands of the politicians.
5Ir Chittenden biiilded better than
he knew. The ordinance was destined
for death In case of Democratic victory.
That was decided upon many days be
fore election. It will be remembered
that the last scheduled meeting of com
mon council, which should have oc
curred on Fob. IS. five days before elec
tion, did not take place owing to the
absence of n quorum.
Win re ii'-o all your Democratic
bretiiern, tunight, Mr. President?" Is a
remark one of the Republican members
made to President Grler on that eve
ning. The absence of the Democratic
members on Unit night had no special
significance to the uinnmaieii one now
the why and wherefore is plainly ap
parent. The city treasurer ordinance
was to have come over from select
council that night.
The members of council particularly
those of the select branch, who have
spent so much time and gone to no
end of trouble in forming and engineer
ing this ordinance were thoroughly dis
gusted men yesterday when they
learned of the action of the light
weights of common council. .Mr. Chit
tenden was one of these.
5111. CHITTENDEN'S RE5IARK.
"I regret exceedingly," mild he, "that
they did not look at that matter in the
proper litiht, und they may regret It
themselves. It Is only a question of
time before there will be a blir scandal
over this thing." In referring ti the
excuse which the Democrats put for
ward for killing the measure,- 51r. Chit
tenden said:
"It has only been during the last few
years that there has been tiny hnlniicctt
of any amount held by the city treas
urer. This remedial legislation could
not In fairness be introduced while one
party or the other was !n power- as It
would be said that It was un attempt
to deprive one side of something that
the other was allowed to enjoy unmo
lested. We therefore seized upon the
excellent opportunity offered this win
ter to have this much needed reform
Instituted, and hoped to have it adopt
ed without any political Intervention.
Rut tin thing must come and mark me
it will.''
The remarks made yesterday about
the city concerning thu Democratic
loaders nnd future olllee holders who
worked to have 'the orilinunee killed
were of anything but a. lluttcrlnir na

President Charles Dole Is not the first
great college president or great educa
tor who has been outspoken in praise of
Ptilne's celery compound.
The detailed and convincing testi
monial of President Cook of the Na
tional Teachers' Association, Is fresh in
the public mind.
One of the foremost educators in
America, Principal L. L. Camp of the
Dwlght School, New Haven, has called
Paine's celery compound the greatest
Invigorator in existence.
Such men us State Treasurer Colvln

els, Edmund Russell, and a host of
others whose character nnd learning
are recognized by the world, have pub
licly stated thnt when they were sick
It was Paine's celery compound that
made them well.

Wliolcsulo Arrests by Stato Liquor I.casuo
Agents In I.nerno County-Work to lie
Done in This County and City.
Detectives In the employ of the State
Liquor league made scores of arrests
during Wednesday and Thursday in
and about Wllkes-llarre of proprietors
of unlicensed drinking places. The de
tectives had been working In that vicin
ity for several weeks. More arrests ure
to follow, and us soon as the Luzerne
field Is covered It Is reported that at
tention will be given to this city and
county.
The Stute Liquor league Is deter
mined thut the 'spouk-easy," that
thorn in thu side of legalized saloon
keepers, shall He eradicated, und to
that end they some time ago sent sev
eral Philadelphia detectives to the Wy
oming valley to locate the Illegal sellers
and to collect evidence against them,"
huvs the Wilkes-liurro Leader, "Tho
detectives had no difficulty in finding
the numerous "holes in the wull," and
even though the Philadelphia men were
perfect strangers In the community
they had no more difficulty In procuring
drinks In these unlicensed places than
from the legitimate dealers.
"Ever since the high license law went
into effect the number of spetik-easies
have steadily Increased until now there
are more than l.'.mo in Luzerne county,
and the licensed dealer has been abso
lutely without protection. Tin1 various
constables come to court regularly and
with surprising sincerity swear that
they kuuw of no violations in their re
spective bailiwicks.
The Philadelphia detectives have
worked Industriously uud have suc-
, ded in procuring the names, with
ample evidence against each, of almost
everv unlicensed liquor deuler In the
county, and their arrest will speedily
follow. In addition to this a large num
ber of constables, with whom the detec
tives drank In speak-eusies, and who
reported no violations when ca led In
court will be hauled up and given a
trial for perjury. In fact, consterna
tion reigns in the ranks of speak-easy
proprietors and today they were clos
ing up In every locality, and many of
them wklpnhig out until the trouble
blows over."

Enough consistent, trustworthy testi
mony, ulways of the highest character,
is today in every one's possession to
convince any doubter (If one exists) of
the remarkable power of Paine's celery
compound to make the sick well again.
President Dole wns born In 1S4II. His
graduated from Norwich I'nlversity In
the class of 18:. and became professor
of political science in the university.
In 1SD5 he was unaninioiislv elected
president, to succeed ex-Secretary of
Stato Hon. George Nichols. He has
held, us the public good required, nearly
all the public offices in the gift of his
townsmen. In a recent letter, he says:
"I have used Paine's celery com
pound for several years, and Und It an
excellent remedy for nervous exhaus
tion, especially that caused by louff
continued mental work."
The use of Paine's celery compound Is
soon followed by an Increase In th
quantity of active, ruddy blood, quick
in its rounds.
Dyspepsia, neuralgia, and rheuma
tism are routed from the body. Dis
eases due to deranged, under-fed nerv
ous tissues are rapidly cured, nnd good
spirits, hopefulness, and an eagerness
to get well take the place of melan
