POLITICAL NEWS .
AND CHIT-CHAT
Four Pronounced Legislative Candidates
in the First District.
MR. SANDERS' ENERGETIC CANVASS
He Will lie Opposed by E. E. Roba
than, Isaac Jones and Harry E.
Hntton.Story of How Pattison
W as Nominated at Scranton.
Next November the people of this
county will elect four members of the
legislature, but In none of the districts
save the First has there been
anything more than the slight
est surface Indications that rival
ambitions aro likely to clush be
fore the voters register their verdict.
The First district is made up of West
Side and North Knd wards of this city
and has for some time had at least four
pronounced candidates for the Republi
can nomination, which is usually equal
to an election. The men who have an
nounced their candidacy are ex-Com-lvon
Councilman E. E. Robathan, of the
West Side; ?T. E. Zanders, Isaac Jones
itml I'.nn-y E. Hnttnn, of Frovi1nc?.
V-en. .Kim U. Fnrr 1ms not ! veil
hliii'clf formally u: a candidate, but if
Ids liatty If" desirous of retaining htm
in the legislature, where he has per
formed such valuable services not only
for his district but fur the state at
large, it Is not probable that he will re
fuse the call of duty. He has served
three terms as the representative of the
district and by his careful attention to
the wants of his constitutents has
made himself a great favorite with the
voters. If he should start after the
nomination he would make his oppo
nents, spurt In a lively way to distance
him.
E. E. Robathan, the West Side young
man who has announced himself as a
candidate for the nomination, made a
brilliant record in the city councils as a
worker, orator and parliamentarian.
He was for several years one of the
most active and valuable members of
the lower branch of the city legislature
and If sent to Harrisburg would win for
himself a conspicuous place among the -men
who there make laws. M. E. San
ders, tho news editor of the Truth, Is
making a more energetic canvass at
present than any of the candidates. He
is a gentleman of extensive experience,
much ability and wide knowledge of
affairs and the First district would have
no reason to be ashamed of its repre
sentative If Mr. Sanders is honored by
an election. Isaac Jones, of the North
End, Is a flreboss who has a large fol
lowing of warm friends who want to
see him representing the district In
Harrisburg. They confidently assert
that he can get a greater number of
delegates in the North End than Mr.
Sanders. There la a feeling that Provi
dence should be accorded the nomina
tion this year, which will militate in
favor of that part of the district If It
combines on one candidate. Tho indi
cations now are that It will not do so.
Harry E. Iiatton, the third North End
candidate, was also a member of the
common council and Is wow clerk of that
body. He Is bright, able and popular
and will cut a figure In the fight for
the nomination. The Republicans of
the First have an abundance of legis
lative talent and no matter which of the
above Is selected the district will be
well represented.
A writer In the Pittsburg Post In giv
ing a biographical sketch of ex-Governor
Robert E. Pattlson relates of the
famous state convention In this city in
1880 the following story, which has
probably never appeared In print be
fore: The Democratic convention met
nt Scranton the bulk of the politicians
again opposed to Pattlson. No other
single candidate, however, was able to
concentrate enough strength to beat
him. Wallace, Black and Henzel were
willing at a late hour to unite on
Silas M. Clark, then Judge of the su
preme court. They Joined in a telegram
which was Inteuded to prevent him
from declining the nomination before
the convention had made It and ad
journed; and there are reasons for be
lieving it would have effected thrtt pur
pose. But Mr. Wallace was too long In
cominrr to see the Inevitable. While he
was being convinced that he could not
be nominated his followers were making
second choice of Pattlson; and while
Wallace, Black and Henzel were pre
paring their speeches to stampede the
caucus to Clark the Wallace followers
were announcing their purpose to go to
Pattlson whenever Wallace went out of
the fight. The bottom fell out of the
Clark boom; Mr. Wallace was defeated,
and Mr. Puttlson's nomination for a
second term was even a greater politic
al phenomenon than his first.
Attorney M. A. .McGlnley is already
spoken of as the Democratic candidate
for district attorney two years hence.
The position of secretary of the board
of health has not yet been tendered to
Attorney Nathan Vldaver. Neither has
Attorney W. W. Baylor been asked to
accept or decline it.
Attorney M, J. Donnhoe may be the
Democratic candidate for legislature In
the Fecond district next fall. There are
other aspirants for the honor cf a nom
ination but Mr. Donahoe appears to
have the call on It
This morning It Is Chief Robllng. He
takes charge of the police department
without the best wishes of all brother
Democrats, but then that will not pre
vent him from making a good official.
On Thurpday night John Fitzsimmons
will probably be appointed patrolman
and Immediately afterwards be promot
ed to the olilce of captain.
THE DAY AT PECKVILLE.
Severe Storm Broke I'p the Parade.
Address by C. A. Bntlcntierg, Esq.
Memorial Day was observed by. the
people genrally in Perkvllle. At 2 p. m.
the paiHde ronslsttng of the numerous
civic snclotk'i of the town as well as the
children of the Sunday schools started,
bill wns hrouriit to a sudden termlnn
tlosfbyor.o of the severest storms which
ha swept over the town ' for years.
Those In the line of march scattered In
all directions and after the storm abat
ed all repaired to the Methodist EpIoc.T
pnl church where the programme was
carried out In full.
The exercises were opened by on an
them by the choir. Rev. Allan, of the
Baptist oiiurcn, oncrea prayer. Re
marks were made by Halsey Lathrop
and an anthem by the choir followed.
C. A. Battenberg was the orator of the
day. A brief summary of his address Is
as follows:
"I do not come before you today mere
ly to take part In a holiday affair, nor to
excite a pusslng Interest In the occa
sion which calls together this concourse
of people. We have come here today
with one chief purpose in view that of
honoring our Illustrious dead. ;
"This should be a day tear to the
hearts of every American;, a day which
should appeal to the patriotic Impulses
of every citizen and friend of the coun
try. To make It a day ot jollification
nd mirth: a day of pleasure and sport.
Is a blot on the fair name of our people;
and none too soon can steps be taken to
check the course of those who
seek to divert the true pur
poses tor which this day has
been set apart. This Is a day dedicated
to the memory of our soldier dead, and
should be a day of solemnity and rev
erent respect for those who have done
so much for our land. They deserve
and ought to have a first place In the
hearts of the people who richly enjoy
the dearly bought privileges which their
blood and valor have won.
"And It takes something more than
mere sentiment to espouse the cause of
war. and give up the comforts and en
joyments of a happy home with Its sur
roundings and possessions to go forth
you knownot where to suffer and endure
hardship and destitution for years with
an uncertainty hanging over you as to
the result. And now, having rendered
this office of love to those to whom this
day has been dedicated let us turn our
faces toward the future. The earthly
sun of many of ub has already passed at
high meridian and now seeks the
western sky; but cur day l not yet
done, nor have we, as yet, gained our
discharge from duty.
In the present conflict let us be men
and women In air that those words Im
ply. Let us strive for all that tends to
exalt and ennoble th? human family,
so that whrjn the final summons cornea
to us we mny take a place In the r-ks
of the great cnrtitln; the Lord of Ho.j
In the camping ground of heaven."
"Amerlca"wns sung by the audience
and ihe Rev. F'.mpklns dismissed them
in a few well chosen remarks, and then
benediction.
BOOTHS ARE COMING.
Commander aad Mrs. Ballington Booth
at Elm Park Church Thursday Night.
In American Volunteers' Interest.
Mr. and Mrs. Ballington Booth are
coming to Scranton. They will be
present at a meeting to be arranged
for them In Elm Park church Thursday
night.
Commander nnd Mrs. Booth come In
the Interest of the-American Volun
teers, tlio religious evangelical organi
zation, the birth of which followed the
recent trouble In tho ranks of the Sal
va'tlon army. Their presence here will
be due to the efforts of Colonel Pattle
Watkins, who recently conducted
meetings here In the First Presbyter
ian church and on the West Side. The
commander and his wife will probably
be accompanied by several of the head
quarters staff.
The Scranton post of the Volunteers
recently began Its meetings under the
leadership of Captain Masland and
Lieutenant Green in a large tent on
Linden street, opposite the court house,
and since the meetings began there has
been noticed an Intense rivalry between
the Volunteer supporters and the par
ent organization, the Salvationists,
whose barracks are located on the West
Side. The aim of the Volunteers ha3
been to raise funds with which to es
tablish permanently a hall In the busi
ness section of the central city. It Is
expected that the visit of the Balling.
ton-Booths will give the Volunteers a
prestige and a start in that direction

NEW BREAKER AT
MOUNTLOOKOUT
It Is Bcinj Constructed for Simpson &
Watkins, of Tuis City.'
CONTAINS ALL THE MODERN IDEAS
The Model Coat Breaker of This
Region When CompletedIt Is Ex
peeled That It Will Be in Operation
in August and Have a' Capacity
of Two Thousaud' Tons of Coal a
Day.
Near Wyoming borough, at Mount
Lookout, one of the finest coal break
ers in this region Is now being con
structed by Simpson & Watkins, the
extensive coal operators of this city.
to take the place of tne Mount uooKout
breaker, which was destroyed by tire
several months ago. The ashes of the
tire had not become cold when Simpson
& Watkins began th work of rebuild
ing, with the intention of making tne
new breaker a model of its kind, one
that would contain all of the most mod
ern Improvements for the breaking and
cleaning of anthracite coal.
The breaker is being constructed un
der the supervision of J. L. Crawford,
the general manager of the firm, anu
work has progressed so rapiuiy that the
machinery Is now belnff placed in the
building. By August It will be possible
to begin the preparation of coal In it.
The new breaker occupies the site of
the one destroyed by fire, but is larger,
being double instead of single.
Some Idea of the massive character
of the ne.w structure may be gained
from the statement that 1.300.000 feet
of timber Is required in Its building.
PREPARATION OF COAL.
The coal'iwill be hoisted to the top of
the breaker by .means of a plane, as be
fore, and the nutmier of handling cars
will be the sanie.From the dumping
platform, downward through the
breaker, however, areU-adleal changes
from the old style. V
Just below the dumping platform are
two rcl; s cf cnr.iirr, and IVue the
changes begin. Into one pair of crush
ers, 40 by 4S Inches in size, goes air nf
the pure coal. Into the other crushers?
30 by 36 inches in size, goes all doubtful
and bony coal. Both classes of coal are
treated alike as to crushing and separ
ating, passing from the crushers into
counter screens 5 by 7' feet In diameter
and 24 feet long. Out of these screens
broken and other coal Is prepared over
automattcslateplckers. There Is also an
extra pair of crushers, by means of
which tha broken and egg coal may be
reduced, if ueslrea, to lower sizes.
The pure coal under broken and egg
goes to the main screen, from which
the stove and chestnut sizes are pre
pared over automatic slate pickers.
The chestnut and pea coal then passes
over shakers and automatic slate pick
ers, thence going direct to the pockets.
The pickings from ull of these sizes of
coal are elevated and replcked.
DOUBTFUL AND BONY COAL.
Going back to the top of the breaker.
the course of the doubtful and bony
coul may be traced. This, after leav
ing the counter screens. Instead of go
ing to the main screens, ns the pure
coal, passes, together with the coal
from the mud screens, under the bars.
over a series of shakers, and after be
ing separated into sizes by the shakers
runs into twelve Lehigh Valley
pattern jigs (of the same style as those
In use at Maltby). All doubtful coal,
even the buckwheat Blze. is Jigged. Af
ter being Jigged it passes over auto
matic slate pickers, and thence to the
chutes, ready for market, the long and
perfect cleaning process through which
It has passed being expected to make
It clean enough to pass the most rigid
