Few Bmoother running: conventions havo been held In this county than thnt of the Democrats In tho court house yesterday. It was a convention that was bossed In a thoroughly busl-ness-llltc way. The delegates received $1B apiece for expenses, a meal ticket for dinner nnd a Blip of paper contain ing the names of tho candidates agreed upon by the slate-makers. These can- COL. F. J. FITZSLMMONS, Permanent Chairman of Democratic County Convention. didates were voted for by almost all of the delegates. The candidates nom inated were: District Attorney-G. S. HORN, Scran ton. Shcriff-C. II. SCHADT. Scranton. Trcasurer-M. J. KELLY'. Scranton. Prothonotary M. F. NORTON. Car bondale. Clerk-M. II. GRIFFIN, Scranton. Recorder-FRED. WARNICE, Scran ton. Reglster-WILLIAM KOCH, Scranton. Jury Commissioner FRANK DOUGH ERTY, Dalcvllle. Mr. Dougherty's name was not on the slate, that office being left free for all. It was the Intention of the slate-makers, however, to nominate John E. Flynn, of Archbald, for Jury commis sioner, but ex-Sheriff John J. Fahey Interested himself in Mr. Dough crty'.s behalf and the latter won, much to the chagrin of tho people of Arch bald, who say they have been repeat edly and persistently turned down In Democratic conventions. Early In the morning the delegates were nstlr, particularly those who par ticipated In Monday night's caucus. .During the early morning most of them were seen and brought Into line by the workers for the slate and It was an nounced to them that those who voted for the slate would get $15 and dinner, while those who voted against it need expect nothing but hard knocks. The argument was clinched by the assertion that the slate would win, anyway, and that no good would be accomplished by kicking. GOT INTO LINE. This brought nearly all of the malcon tents into line and the only ones who caused any trouble In the convention were W. J. Rurke and John J. McAn drew. The former succeeded in get ting a resolution adopted instructing tho Lackawanna county delegates to the state convention to vote for the resolution that will be offered removing "William F. Harrlty from the National committee. M. H. Griffin, who was nominated for the office of clerk of the courts, refused to accept the nomination and Matthew F. Norton, it is said will also refuse to run. The convention was very orderly. It was attended by few Republicans, but many of the more prominent Demo crats of the county were present. At 10:45 County Chairman T. J. Jen nings called the convention to order and County Secretary D. J. needy read the call. Joseph Brennan, of Carbon dale.and M. J. Ruddy, of the Sixteenth ward, were appointed assistant sec retaries, and the work of receiving cre dentials and preparing a roll of the convention was begun. A number of contests materialized and were referred to committees. After the roll call Chairman Jen nings asked for nominations for tem porary chairman, and Attorney Joseph O'Brien nominated Colonel F. J. Fltz slmmons. Mr. Jennings was also nom inated, but declined to be a candidate and Colonel Fltzslmmons was chosen by acclamation. In accepting the posi tion he made one of his eloquent and forceful addresses. After paying trib ute to Bryan and other shining lights of Democracy, he said: WHAT THEY MET FOn. Wo meet today not to mourn over ISM nor Inaugurate the campaign of 1900. Wo assemble not to criticise tho Dlngley bill nor to complain of Mark Hanna's treatment of tho miners. Wo have como together to name a ticket for tho voters of this county to ratify at tho polls. We hope to select clean, competent men. Having alono that we then will ask tho tax payers to comparo their tax receipts of this year with those of last, and If nil do not find a reabon for changing the administration of county affairs It must be admitted that partisanship runs high In Lackawanna, At tho conclusion of his address the chairman appointed the following committees. Contested seats James F. Boylan, Car bondalo; Miles Clark, Scranton; John F. McDermott, Carbondale; J, S. Bachman, Gouldsboro; Adelbert Carpenter, Scott. Permanent organization Jos. O'Brien, J. it. Burnett, Scranton; William Peel, Carbondale; M. J, Ruddy, P. Robllng. Jr., Scranton. Commltteo on resolutions-James J. OMalley, A. K. McNulty. Archbald; A. A. Nichols, South Ablngton; Georgo honrt'V JVf VCir,yV, 3A Fl "nnell. Car bondale; J. J. McDonnell, Dunmore. T!'.ls. one the invention adjourned unti 1 1.30 p m. on motion of Delegate Martin Cadden, of the Thirteenth ward. The convention reconvened promptly at that hour and the committee on contested seats reported in favor of ' 1ff..V,eJollowlnBi Patrick Reaney and Philip Trelse, Third district of Fell township, one half a vote each: John Hart and Patrick Burke, Second dls trlct of Fifteenth ward, one-half a vote each; Patrick M. Rohan and John Mc Loon, First district of Fourth ward one-half a vote each; J. H. McNamar! Second district of Third ward, one vote; William Krcssler, Fffth ward, ono vote; James Neary nnd Anthony Gillespie, Fourth district of First ward, one-half vote each: William Middleman and Peter Qcrrlty, Second district of First ward of Archbald, one-halt vote each. Tho report was adopted. THE nESOLUTIONS. Following this the resolutions were rend by Attorney James J. O'Mnlley and wero adopted. They aro an fol lows: Tho Democratic party of Lackawanna county assembled in convention on Tues day, Aug. 21, 1897, presents as Its car dinal principles tho enactment of legis lation for tho equal rights of all tho people, an economically administered government, nnd an abiding faith In tho teachings of Thomas Jefferson, Andrew Jackson and William Jennings Bryan. Resolved, That the platform adopted at tho National convention of Democ racy In 1S96 bo endorsed fully nnd with out reserve. That tho noble battle of that magnificent leader, William Jen nings Bryan, for tho interests of tho common pcoplo bo fittingly recognized as worthy of tho highest commendation that can bo bestowed. Resolved, That tho most cordial sym pathy Is presented to tho cause of tho striking miners of tho bituminous coal fields of Pennsylvania, West Virginia, Ohio and Illinois; and that tho Interfer ence of tho Federal courts In lRSUtng In junctions bo uncompromisingly de nounced. Government by Injunction is a tyrannical, usurping, and undemocratic method of proceeding to adjust the dif ferences between capital and labor, and it should not bs tolerated In a country of freedom. Resolved, That the Pennsylvania state legislature of 1S97 bo branded as the most notoriously extravagant and wasteful In tho history of our commonwealth; and that tho offence Is all the more pro nounced in view of the grntlutous prom ises of reform mado before last election. Tho waste of the peoplo's money has been so lavish that tho schools, char ities and benevolent Institutions of the stato havo suffered largely In conse quence. Tho extravagance of tho session was so glaringly palpable that a Repub lican governor could not dare approvo of many of the appropriations. Resolved, That tho Republican commis sioners of Lackawanna county bo stig matized as dishonestly extravagant In contracting and approving bills for the alterations nnd repairs to the court house. Tho addition of a third story has cost tho tax payers several thousand dollars In excess of the amount that the struc ture and foundation originally cost. Tho attention of tho Judges of Lackawanna county is called to tho cost of the court houso repairs, and they are earnestly besought to instruct tho next grand Jury to order an Investigation. MR. BURKE'S PROPOSITION. As soon ns the report of the commit tee on rcsoultlons wns disposed of, Del egate W. J. Burke, of tho Ninth ward, claimed .the attentions of the convention. He read the following res olutton, and moved its adoption: Resolved, That tho several delegates from this county to the coming stato convention are Instructed to voto In favor of all resolutions offered in said conven tion for the purpose of purging tho Democratic national committee of all per sons, who do not affiliate with tho prln-' clples set forth In tho Chicago platform and particularly of those who were op posed to the election of William J. Bry an. When the yeas and nays were called on the resolution thero seemed to be more votes against than for it. It was recognized as a direct slap at Harrlty and several of the latter's friends re quested tho chairman to rule on tho voto. He was In doubt, however, and said so. By this time several of the delegates were demanding thnt tho resolution be apaln read, nnd Mr. Burko complied with the request. The cheering and hand-clapplnp that followed showed .that the sentiments expressed in the resolution were popu lar with a good many of the delegates. Again a vote was taken, and this time there was quite a storm of "yeas," and only a few weak "nays." Chairman Fltzslmmons declared that the resolu tion had passed and said the conven tion was ready to hear nominations for county offices. Contrary to the usual custom, a district attorney wns nomin ated flrst and a sheriff second, this be ing the order named in the new rules. Attorney Joseph O'Brien mnde a vig orous address in presenting the name of George S. Horn as a candidate for district attorney, and paid high trib ute to Mr. Horn as a lawyer and man. Paul Aten, of Newton, seconded the nomination. W. J. Burlto wanted to know If any one was authorized to speak for Mr. Horn and say that he will accept, HORN NEVER REFUSED. "George Horn has never refused to answer the call of his party, and ho will not refuse now," said Mr. O'Brien. That seemed to satisfy the delegates, and Mr. Horn was chosen by acclama tion. Attorney M. J. Huddy made a neat speech in nominating Charles H. Schadt for sheriff. The nomination was mado by ncclamatlon, as was that of M. J. Kelly for county treasurer. Mr. Kelly was nominated by M. J. Cadden, of the Thirteenth ward, "When the office of prothonotary was reached came the first nnd practically the only hitch. Matthew Norton, of Carbondale, was the Blated candidate, but evidently no one had been assign ed the duty of nominating him. There was a long pause and then Patrick McDonnell, of Mlnookn. nominated Martin McDonough, of the same place. Joseph Brennan, of Carbondale, nom inated Matthew Norton. P. J. Mul herln, of Taylor, said he did not think Mr. Donough would consent to the use of his name and though it ought to bo withdrawn. Mr. McDonnell thereupon told tho convenelon thnt he had been told by Mr. McDonough that he would accept the nomination if It was tender ed to him. That being the casp Mr. Mulherln said he was for Mr. McDonough, and made a speech seconding the nomina tion. On motion of Joseph O'Brien, John J. Corbett, of this city and Mich ael McDonnell, of Dickson, were named tellers. The vote resulted as follows: NOnTON 147 M'DONOUGH 15 W. J. Durke cast one of the votes for McDonough. On motion of P. J. Mulheiln the nomination wns made unanimous. For clerk of the courts John E. negan, common councilman of the Sixth ward, was nominated by John M. Moran, of tho Eighteenth ward. At tho same time Mr. Moran presented a letter to the chairman from M. H. Griffin, announcing that he would not bo a candidate 'for tho office. The contents of the letter were not mado known, although John J. McAndrew and Mr. Moran asked that It be rend. John Taylor, of Dunmore, nominated M. H. Griffin. When this was done Mr. McAndrew called .the attention of tho committee to the fact that Mr. Grlflln said he would not accept. Chair man Fltzslmmons said that Mr. Grlf lln would accept if nominated, QUESTION OF VEHACITY. "We only have Mr. Fltzslmmons' word for that," said Mr. McAndrew, "and on tho other hand Mr. Griffin as sures us that ho will not accept." About this tlmo Joseph O'Brien walked over Lto Delegato Moran nnd the two had a short conversation. At Its conclusion Mr. Moran withdrew tho name of Mr. Itegan and the nomination waa mado by ncclamatlon. Four candidates were named for re corder of deeds. Attorney P. E. Tim lin, of Jermyn, named Frederick Warn, ke, of the West Side; John J. McAn drew named Benson Davis, of tho West Side; Attorney James E. O'Malley, of Olyphant placed tho name of P. J, Honan In nomination, and John Mc Namara did the same service for II. E. O'Malley, of tho North End. While tho balloting was In progress Mr. Hon an requested that his namo be with drawn. The vote resulted as follows: WARNKE 141 O'MALLEY 19 DAVIS A On motion of Mr. McAndrew tho nomination of Mr. Warnke was mado unanimous. William Koch, of South Scranton, had no opposition for register of wills. Ho was nominated by Peter Hobllng, Jr. The contest of the day was for tho office of Jury commissioner. The slate makers did not name any one for that ofllce, but nevertheless their sympa thies were with John E. Flynn, of Archbald. The following were nomi nated: Thomas W. Kelly, of North Scranton; Thomas II. Kelly, of South Scranton; Edward Connor, of Bellevue; Thomas Price, of Archbald; John T. Flaherty, of South Scranton; Frank Dougherty, of Moscow; John E, Flynn, of Archbald. A. F. McAnulty made a stirring speech seconding tho nomina tion of Mr. Flynn. He spoke of Mr. Flynn's services for the party, the glori ous majorities that have been rolled up for Democratic candidates by Arch bald, which he termed the Gibraltar of Democracy He said that In all fair ness Archbald was entitled to the nomi nation. W. J. Burke also seconded the nomination. DOUGHERTY'S CHAMPION. Ex-Sheriff John J. Fahey mado a speech seconding the nomination of Mr. Dougherty. He said the Democratic voters of the entire Third legislative district asked for Mr. Dougherty's nomination and It ought to be granted. The first ballot resulted as follows: FRANK DOUGHERTY 60 JOHN E. FLYNN 4G THOMAS W. KELLY 15VJ THOMAS H. KELLY 21 EDWARD CONNOR 0 THOMAS PRICE 5 JOHN FLAHERTY 7 JAMES P. FOLEY 13 There was no choice and a second ballot was ordered. On motion of A. F. McNulty It was decided to drop the three lowest candidates after the sec ond ballot. The names of Thomas W. Kelly, Thomas II. Kelly and Thomas Price were withdrawn. The second bal lot was as follows: FRANK DOUGHERTY 75 JOHN E. FLYNN 65 EDWARD CONNOR 3 JAMES P. FOLEY 14 The names of Flaherty, Connor and Foley were dropped. Mr. Fahey said there had been some dissatisfaction ex pressed by delegates over the manner In which the last ballot had been con ducted and he moved that on the next ballot each delegate stand up before voting, so that those who were not dele gates could not vote without being de tected. On the third ballot the vote was: JOHN E. FLYNN GOV- FRANK DOUGHERTY ....99 " On motion of Joseph O'Brien the con vention permanently adjourned. GRIFFIN INTERVIEWED. After the convention M. H. Grlflln was seen by a Tribune reporter and said that he would not bo a candidate. That, he said, was final. Ho had made up his mind to that effect, had so noti fied the officers of the convention, and was therefore not to be considered in connection with the nomination. Tho vacancy will bo filled by the county committee, under the following provis ion of the party rules: Unfilled nominations shall' be made by a two-thirds vote of tho entire county committee; If tho candidate shall fall In receiving two-thirds of tho commltteo then tho convention shall bo re-assem-blcd for tho purpose of making such nominations. Hon. Frank n. Coyne, of Old Forge, is spoken of ns Mr. Griffin's possible successor on the ticket. Matthew Norton, of Carbondale, will also refuse to run for prothonotary, It Is said. The men who were manag ing his campaign for him yesterday refused to contribute anything towards defraying the convention expenses and Intimated that he would have nothing to do with the nomination. None of tho candidates were brouglit. before tho convention yesterday. The state delegates from this county refuse to be bound by the resolution. They say that they were elected by legislative conventions and that a county convention has no right what ever to try and Instruct them. Now Is the time to have your watch repaired.

F. Mulligan, contractor, until cer tain of his laborers are paid. SAYS IT WAS A ''QROQ" BILL. Urynn Collins Seeks to Escnpo a Nolo on That I'lcn. A very unusual defence was offered by Bryan Collins, of tho Twelfth ward, yesterday to a suit brought by Store keeper Henry Coyle, of the same ward, to collect from Collins $135 and ten years' Interest on a Judgment note given In payment of his mother's store bill. In his answer, mado tnrough Attor neys Qulnnan & Donahoe, he says that at the time of the signing of the note, June 7, 18S8, he was unfit to transact business because of his being Intoxi cated, and while in this condition was taken advantage of by Coyle, in the respect that he said tho debt was for groceries and provisions, while In truth It was for whisky, beer, ale and porter, as his mother's pass-books, which have since come Into his possession, will show. He also alleges that he was fraudulently induced to enter into an amicable renewal of the note. Judge Archbald granted a rule to show cause why Judgment should not be opened and the defendants let Into a defense. It wns made returnablo at next argument court and the sheriff was directed to stay the sale set down for today. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE. tUndcr this heading short letters of In terest will be published when accompi nled, for publication, by the writer's name. Tho Tribune will not bo held re sponsible for opinions here expressed. Shull This Decision Stand Editor Tribune. Sir Tho arrest of Mahon and Llttlo by Chief Robling and their subsequent dis charge by Alderman Millar, as recorded In Monday and Tuesday's Tribune, In volves a principle that deserves more than a passing notice. They wero ar rested for "a breach of tho peace." Their discharge Implies that they had not broken the peace. Shall this decision stand? If It Is right for Mahon and Llt tlo to sell and deliver their papers on Sunday, then It is equally tho privilege of every merchant in Scranton to sell and deliver his goods on tho Lord's day. Tho delivery of Sunday newspapers Is certainly as clear a violation of the Sun day laws of our stato as tho delivery of dry goods or groceries. Now that which would bo construed as "a breach of the peace" on a week day and on a Sunday aro two very different things. Boys and men delivering and selling papers on Sunday, however quietly done, aro a great annoyance to quiet, Sabbath-loving people. Robllng found men breaking the laws of the state, which strictly pro hibits tho performing of "any worldly employment or business whatsoever on tho Lord's day (work of necessity and charity only excepted)." Theso men, In dellvlng their papers, were also doing that which la a great annoyance to every true American citizen and a real dis turbance In a Sabbath-keeping commun. Ity. In nil theso things wero they not committing "a breach of tho peace?" and was It not the plain duty of Robllng to arrest them? And should not tho alder man havo Imposed tho fine upon theso Sabbath-desecrators, provided by stat uto? This Is tho way It looks to ono who Is nn entire stranger to all the parties concerned. W. A.
