ONLY REPUBLICAN
RALLY OF CAMPAIGN
HELD IN ST. DAVID'S HALL SAT
TJRDAY NIGHT.
Speeches Were Made by County
1 Chairman A. A. Vosburg, Assistant
District Attorney W. Oaylord
Thomas, John H. Follows and
Deputy Attorney General Fred W.
Flolts Mr. Vosburg Declared That
This Is a Very Important Election.
Taxpayers Deeply Interested In It.
The only neDubllrnn matcn meeting
of tho present campaign was held In
St. David's hall, West Scranton, Satur
day evening. Tho speeches were time
ly and were listened to with individual
attention, The speakers wen; County
Chairman A. A. Vosburg, Assistant
District Attorney W. Oaylord Thomas,
ex-Mayor John H. Fellows and Deputy
Attorney Oeneral Fred W. Fleltz. In
the audience were candidates John
Penman. Asa K. Klefer and William R.
Johns, Representative John R. Farr.
Councilman William V. Clrlfflths, Street
Commissioner Rowland D, Thomas.and
many other prominent Republicans.
The meeting was called to order
shortly after 8.30 o'clock, when the
speakers took their seats on tho plat
form. County Chnlrmnu Vosburg be
gan tho speechmaklng by expressing
his pleasure nt being pra.nn. and
while he had not pr.parot any special
address, sDoke In n very happy vein,
lie told a clever story about Republi
cans In heaven, and said thev wero
Just as trustworthy on earth ns they
were In the eternal realm. The Im
portance of tho coming election Is
greatly underestimated, Mr. Vosburg
said. The candidates are the bankers
of the county. We can place Implicit
confidence In their honor and Integ
rity.
MR. THOMAS' ADDRESS.
W. Ga.vlord Thomas was Introduced
as the chairman of the evening1, and
made a ringing speech. He spoke, In
part, ns follows:
"Fellow-Republicans, I appreciate the
honor that has been conferred upon me.
nnd I am pleased to be present nnd
meet with you. This Is an Important
campaign and the candidates nomi
nated are Important. I am not here to
attack anybody, or to besmirch any of
the opposing candidates, and I may
presume for argument's sake that the
Democrats are equal. It is not so much
the question who shall be elected, but
what party we shall ally ourselves to.
"I am here to champion the Repub
lican party, the party of prosperity and
advancement, and I might ndd with
out fear of honest contradiction,, the
friend of the worklngman. A great
many of the Democrats are with Presi
dent McKlnley in upholding the United
States, and we must bo united and we
are united, right or wrong, In uphold
ing our country and our administra
tion. Wherever the American flag
floats, there shall it remain, and it shall
not come down under any circum
stances. We are right In the position
w occupy, and we are all united In
upholding It, and the Republican party
proposes to maintain the possessions
we have taken In the Philippine
Islands."
In referring to Admiral Dewey, Mr.
Thomas spoke of him as the champion
of American freedom In Manila, and
quoted the commission's report just
made at Washington with reference to
his firm stand. The quotation was
made to show the Inconsistency of the
Democrats In wanting Dewey to be
come their presidential candidate, when
he upholds the president's position In
relation to our recent added posses
sions, and they are advocating the
abandonment of the fight to retain our
latest acquisitions. Continuing, Mr.
Thomas said:
THE REPUBLICAN CREED,
"The Republican party believes in the
administration of the Republican party.
Tho Democratic party Is a party of op
position, and has never made any
movement for the country's welfare.
It has been defeated in the past and
will bo In the future. The verdict
Tuesday will bo that Pennsylvania will
go Republican and for President Mc
Klnley. The Republican party is tho
party of the American people, and to
say wo have no right to hold up our
flag, would mean that wo would not
sustain our prestige with the nations
of the earth. And there Is not one but
believes America Is foremost among
them all."
Speaking of the local ticket, Mr.
Thomas said that every one of them
are good men. John Courier Morris Is
a patriotic citizen and a worthy can
didate, and will bo given a rouiliiK vote
by his constituents. John Penman is
the peer of any man who stands In
Lackawanna county. He Is staunch,
upright and has a heart of his own.
He Is a veritable Oom Paul, and can
he relied upon at any tlm. Asa E.
Klefer, the candidate for auditor, is an
able, competent, thorough-going .ind
upright business man and fully quali
fied to fill the nosHlon. His running
mate. William K. Johns, Is a hustler,
and he will go to Jic polls with a hoar
of admiring friends up and down tho
valley who will elect him by a large
majority.
MR. FELLOWS TALKS.
Hon. John II. Fellows was the next
speaker. He began by saying that this
Is not a fight of any particular man,
but a fight of the people for good gov
ernment. When the Republican party
was created by Abraham Lincoln, it
was created on principle, and we should
stand on principle. When the present
candidates wero nominated It was an
honest expression of tho people at the
polls, and there is no doubt but that
Republicans and Democrats will go to
the polls and vote tho Republican
ticket from top to bottom on principle.
No one can raise the question that
the candidates wero not honoiably
nominated, and If elected they will take
-few
charge of $250,000 and distribute It
properly. They stand for economy, and
nro pledged to economize and reduce
taxation ns far as It lies within their
power. We want equalization of tax
ation, deduction of expenses and the
business of the county run on a. busi
ness basin and business principles.
I havo known John Penman for
many years and he has never gone
back on his word, and stands for what
he says, and will stand by the people,
and will not allow any man or clique
to control him. John Courier Morris ts
too well-known to need any comment,
nnd Johns nnd Klefer will not be found
wanting. They am conscientious and
trustworthy nnd will receive n substan
tial majority. I don't believe there will
be much cutting, no there Is a united
Republican party In Lackawanna
county and they will vote a straight
Republican ticket. It Is tho ticket of
the people and for the people, and will
be elected.
In speaking about a light vote being
polled, Mr. Fellows said there Is no
reason for believing that such will bo
the case. There should be the biggest
Republican vote ever polled In Lacka
wanna county, as It Is to the Interest
of the people to have tho offices run on
business principles, nnd no one can
question the Integrity of the candi
dates. They are tho representatives of
the plain people.
MR. FLEITJC HEARD.
The last speaker was Mr. Fleltz. He
said it afforded hint great pleasure to
meet with the Republican voters any
where, and particularly In Lackawanna
county.
"This Is an Important campaign," he
began, "and the off years are alwayB
Important. There is little campaigning
owing to the peculiar organization this
year, and this Is particularly true In
this county on account of the small
ticket to be elected." Hut you cannot
separate the Republican party from
national Issues."
The speaker then dwelt upon the Re
publican administration In Pennsylva
nia, and spoke of the state appropria
tions for public schools. In referring
to the free text book system, Mr.Fleltz
said that John R. Farr's name was
written side by side with that of Thad
deus Stevens for tho welfare of the
public schools. He referred to the
Democratic opposition which has been
overcome by Republican administra
tion, and alluded to Governor Stone's
action in vetoing bills which there was
no money to pay, and for which he
has been unjustly criticized.
"Tho American voter doesn't make
an honest effort to satisfy htmnelf with
the facts concerning the expenditure of
public funds," the speaker said, "and
they never had a duty more important
to perform than they have today. Suc
cess Is only achieved by everlastingly
pegging at It, and If we would spend
as much energy In fighting the common
enemy a we do In fighting among our
selves, there would not be enough
Democrats left to tell the tale."
In referring to the Crawford county
system of voting, Mr. Fleltz said he
never had any cause to change his
mind regarding It. The ticket recently
nominated under It, Is the ticket of the
people, and If the people don't come out
nnd elect the candidates they have
nominated, they don't wnnt the Craw
ford county system. They are honest,
upright nnd square, and It Is lust s
Important to get out and vote as It was
to nominate them. It Is a duty of pa
triotism and loyalty they owe to tho
Republican party.
Tho meeting was closed with three
cheers for the father of the Crnwford
county system in this county and the
party candidates.

TRUE STORY OF THE
STOLENJ0RDINANCE
A CHARITADLE OMISSION THAT
WAS NOT APPRECIATED..
Frlonds of the Mayor Who Wanted
tho Telephone Fight Kept Out of
the Meeting nt vVhlch the Police
Removals Were to Do Considered
Induced Clerk Jones to Take Part
In What Was nt Least a Colorahls
Transaction Effort to Belittle Tho
Tribune's Story.
Out of charity to an unsophisticated
official, who was Inveigled Into a "col
orable" transaction by his daring politi
cal creditors, The Tribune refrained
from printing the whole story of tho
theft of the lackawannn Telephone or
dinance. The effort to make The Tribune's
story appear ridiculous, for which the
unappreclatlve, unsophisticated ofilclal
Is responsible, calls for the publication
of the story complete.
The ordlnanco was stolen, to begin
with, and It was stolen nt the behest
of parties Interested In tho police re
movals, their object being to prevent
complications dangerous to the behead
ing process that might arise if the tele
phone fight was Injected Into the meet
ing. Clerk Jones says he went for the or
dinance uftcr It had been sent down to
the city clerk's office nnd when City
Clerk Lavelle advised him not to have
anything to do with this sort of thing,
he said he wouldn't, and went away
seemingly satisfied that It was best for
him to take tho city clerk's advice.
To a Tribune reporter, on Friday, he
said ho knew nothing of the where
abouts of the ordinance -and denied
having taken It out of the city clerk's
office.
On Saturday he told a Tribune re
porter that the ordlnanco was in his
office and admitted that he had taken
It out of the city clerk's office to have
It signed by Chairman (Pro-Tern Grif
fiths, having neglected to do this In the
first place. When he went to the city
clerk's office to get the ordinance, he
told City Clerk Lavelle nothing of the
absence of the chairman's signature.
His purpose In taking the ordinance
back was, according to his statement,
then, to gratify the request of certain
parties. Who these I'artles were he
said ho didn't know. They called him
up by telephone, he said.
Tho Tribune regrets that Clerk Jones
has made this explanation necessary,
but it would be derelict In Its duty to
self if it did not give the public the
exact facts.
CANDIDATE REILLY HERE.
His Visit Gives Occasion For an In
teresting Story of How He Was
Nominated at Harrlsburg.
Unannounced, unaccompanied, and
as far as can be learned, having no
particular mission, Hon Charles J.
Rellly, Democratic candidate for Judge
of the superior court, came to the third
largest city In the commonwealth Sat
urday and after shaking hands with
iouniy i nainnnn r. ,i r iizimiiiuii
and n few other Democrats who hap- !
pened to be about went away again, j
to Wllkes-Baire It was said, to nttend
a reception planned by the Luzerne
committee.
Mr. Rellly did not Invite interviews
and when pressed for an expression
would only say that from what he had
observed personally and been told by
Mr. Creasy, he was confident of Dem
ocratic success. ,He did not remember
a. time he stated, when the prospects
of Democratic success wore nu bright.
There was a story afloat to the effect
that Mr. Rellly's visit was for tho pur- i
pose of adjusting some differences
between the state and county commit
tees. This however could not be veri
fied.
There is an Interesting story connect!
ed with Mr. Rellly's nomination that
will bear repeating publicly now that
his visit here gives oecasion.
Ho not only did not peek the place
but had no thoughts of being a candi
date until the very minute he was se
lected. Hon. J. A. Hill, representative;
from Elk county, was looking for the
empty honor and It was agreed ho
should have it. When the big fight on
the supreme court nomination was over
the delegates began to leave the hall
and during the tumuli the nominating
of a superior court candidate was un
dertaken. Chairman Rellly had made a big hit
winth everybody in the convention and
especially with the newspapermen.
The nomination of Mr. 11111 was duly
made and seconded nnd the chair asked
If there were any other nominations.
Sonic one In the newspaper crowd
shouted, "What's tho matter with
Rellly?" "Yes, what's the matter with
, nelllv." a chorus of newspapermen re.
I Rnr,AcA "nollKv nelllv." pnrrvid nil
over the hall and In a fhort space of
time everybody was shouting Itcilly
The man who nominated Hill withdrew I
his name and seconded the nomination
of Rellly. Then everybody lncludln.?
the newspapermen Joined in a. thunder-
ous "aye. mat mace iteiuy tne cnoiee
of the State Democracy for Judge of
the superior court.
Though his selection was somewhat
in the nature of a Joke It was not by
any means a bad one.
NEW USE TOR A GATE.
The O'Briens Thought It Was Moant
for Firewood.
nn "gate night," last Tuesday, a
gate belonging to the fence of Thomas
J. Gannon, of Stone avenue, was re
moved from Its hinges and quietly
abstracted. Miss Julia Gannon learned
tho next day that the gate was thrown
Into the yard of her neighbors, Mr.
and Mrs. Patiick O'lirien. She dis
covered who the malefactors were who
had stolen tho gato and she sent them
after It.
They returned minus the gate nnd

plus the assurance that th3 O'Drlens
would not surrender It. Thereupon
the blood of the family Gannon rose
nnd Julia, together with her brothers,
John, Frank and Tom, marohcl to the
O'llrlcn stronghold, where they found,
not tho gate, but a neat pile of fire
wood which had formerly been the
ornament to their fence. On com
plaining of such usage they received
the highly comforting answer that they
deserved to lose their gate If they
could not gunrd It any better.
At this a spirited debato arose in
which clubs nnd fists were tho chief
arguments presented. O'Brien was
twice felled to the earth and as a rcr
suit had tho belligerent party before
Alderman Kasson Saturday on tho
charges of assault nnd battery nnd
threats to kill. John and Frank were
placed under $150 ball each on the
first charge and Julia and Tom will
answer to the latter one.
ECHO OF CONVENTION.
Citizens' Committee Which Had
Clmrgo of the Letter Carriers'
Convention to Be Sued.
The citizens' committee, who had In
charge the arrangements for the letter
carriers' convention, nnd the proprie
tors of the Westminster hotel are at
odds, and the latter havo served notice
on the former that they propose suing
them for a small matter of $960 on Nov,
S, If satisfactory arrangements are not
made by that time.
The whole trouble is over the New
York Letter Carriers' band, which was
quartered at tho Westminster during
the week of tho convention. A con
tract was entered Into between the citi
zens' committee and the proprietors of
the hotel to furnish accommodations
for eighty-five men for eight days, the
sum to be paid being $9G0.
When the band nnd drum corps came
they stayed at the hotel for three days.
Suddenly the forty-five bandmen left
the house and went to another hotel,
where they stayed for tho remainder
of tho week. The committee paid their
bill at the latter place and then offered
to settle with the Westminster people
for the actual board received by the
men for the time they stayed there,
but the proprietors would accept no
such offer.
They claim that the bandmen left on
nccount of a rivalry which existed be
tween them and the drum corps men;
that they left without warning, putting
them to a great loss.
They state that the offer made was
below the actual value of the services
rendered and couldn't be considered for
a moment. They are now determined
to hold the committee for the amount
stipulated in the contract, and Ward &
Horn, their attorneys, have served
notice to that effete.
Tho citizens' committee, on the other
hand, say that the men complained
that the accommodations were not
what they expected, there being too
many in a room, etc., and that they
can't be expected to pay the Westmin
ster people, having already paid the
board once. They also say that the
sum offered by them was exactly what
was due and was estimated on the
rates furnished by the hotel men, and
that it was a perfectly fair and legiti
mate proposal.
The question arises as to exactly who
can be sued, the committee as a whole,
or only those who signed the contract,
j ameiyi Edward Robathan and several
of the letter carriers who comprised a
committee for the purpose.
There is only about half the sum
mentioned left In the committee's
treasury.
