All was quiet ut Walsh's hotel and when somebody was at last aroused, they had seen nothing. A rappl.ig on the door of the welch hou:ii of the Consumer's Coal company, across the street, took the now puz?.ld patrolmen over there In a hurry. Watchman Ruddy met them and explained that he was the man who sailed up the central ofllce.

Taylor was yesterday elected county superintendent of schools. Only one ballot was necessary for a choice. Mr. Taylor was opposed by Prof. It. N. Davis, of Dunmore, and Prof. F. H Green, of Ablngton. The convention wns held In the main court room of the court house and wag attended by 219 of tho directors of the county. One of them was Mrs. El mund Slaytonvof La Plume, who has the distinction of being tho only wom an director In Lackawanna county. Tho convention organised by olect Ing A, D.

Secretary of the Convention of School Directors. Please read the following to the con vention: I have promised my supporters that had I sulllclcnt strength to win on first ballot I would bo a candidate for the olllco of county superintendent. If I could not muster a majority to Insure my election on first ballot I would publicly withdraw from tho con test. I have found It a physical im possibility to reach the directors of this county in my three weeks' cam paign, nnd as I am quite uncertain as to my strength, I hereby publicly thank the directors for the courteous manner in which I have been received and beg to announce my withdrawal from tho contest. Frank It. Coyne. THE NOMINATIONS. When nominations were declared In order, Prof. Taylor's name was pre sented to the convention by Thomas F. Nealon, of Olyphant.

Mr. Taylor's election when an nounced by the secretary w-ns greeted with lone and hearty applause. There were calls for a speech and Mr. Taylor spoke as follows: I thank the convention very heartily for the high honor conferred upon me In electing me to the ofllce of superin tendent of schools. I think the ofllco In dignity and Importance can bo com pared to only one other ofllcinl position In the county; that no other position Is superior to the superintendent of schools except that of the Judge of the court. I consider It to be a high honor to be elected even once to this ofllce, but to bo elected a second tlmo without op position and a third time by such 11 large majority Is a much higher honor ( No matter what r 1 you pay for it S j Cfierry pectoral j t is the cheapest medi- j J cine in the world for S that cough of yours. ) TRAFFIC IN POISON. Uovernmeit Inspection NeeJed to Condemn Will. key That I Bad as Well as to Approve That Which Is flood, H hns often been observed by those who uome from tho mother country that It Is n great pity that no governmental supervision Is exercised over the keepers of snloans, ro that they should bo com pelled to sell genuine nnd pure spirits. We suy, then let the government up point Inspectors, whoso duty It shall bo to go Into every saloon and test by scientific methods tho liquors that are old there. It Is truo that tho government has set Its seal or npprcvnl upon good whiskey, In recognizing nnd tnxlng Duffy's rum Malt Whiskey ns a Medicine, but let It nlso sock out nnd punish thoso vim sell poison under the name of whiskey. Keep Duffy's Pure Mult Whiskey In tha houso nnd then, you nro sure of nav Ing that which tho government says Is all tight. and one deeply appreciated by me, a testimonial of which any man should bo proud. I nccept tho olllco again with nn ndded sense of Its Importance and responslbllty. Six years' experience has taught how much the welfare and progress of the school depends upon tho action of the superintendent. If he Is Indolent, weak nnd vacillating, the whole system will bo weakened. MUST HAVE COURAGE. Here, If In any ofllce, there should be n man who can perceive tho right and who hns the courage to do It. The chief service to bo performed Ir In the granting of certlticates. The superin tendent, If he Is to be worth anything to the schools, must set his face reso lutely against Incompetency. If ho re fuses to license Incompetent teachers they cannot be hired. It should be very plain to anyone that no person can teach what he does not know, and can didates who aro ignorant of the branches taught In our schools must be refused If we are to have good schools. It Is sometimes n hard task for n superintendent to be rigidly Just nnd fair to the schools. In this he needs the support of tho school directors. Thov should at all times uphold his hands and sustain him In the perform ance of his duties. It is a. plain duty of the school directors to sustain the superintendent In refusing certificates to those who nre not competent. In acceotincr this ofllce for n third time, I ask the continued support of tho school directors. Again thanking you for tho high compliment paid me In this election, I close this short address. The superintendent's salary wns fixed at $3,000, tho same as during his last term and the following resolution with reference to school appropriations was passed: Resolved, That the school directors of Lackawanna county In convention assembled nre unalterably opposed to any cutting or the bin now in tho hands of the governor appropriating $11,000,000 to tho public schools of this commonwealth for tho fiscal year of 1890 and 1900, nnd that a copy of this resolution bo forwarded to his excel lency, William A. Stone, governor of this commonwealth. CARBONDALE ELECTION. Elmer E. Garr, of Berwick Chosen to Succeed Prof. Forbes. The school board of Carbondale met yesterday afternoon and elected El mer E.
