American Knighthood:
Whereas, It is evident to all obscnlng,
nl.lcllni? dtlrens. that there exists in the
agement of our public affairs so much dlshon
ebty, corruption and fraud among those ihat
have control of them, that good, honest, law
respecting men hae become disgusted, and,
Whereas, It is too apparent that Justice in till
things la not obtainable in our courts as at
present constituted; and.
Whereas, It has come to our knowledge
through the public rress, that some of our best
people are making "fforts to bring about a bct
tcr state of affairs and punish those who hava
so abused the confidence reposed in them.
Therefore, bo it
Kesolveel, That we as a society deem St a
privilege and our duty, and also that of all pa
Criotic organisations, all good cltlrcfis, to
heartily endorse their efforts and render themt,
all the assistance possible. And all do hereby
assure them of our sympathy and pledge to them
all the help In our power to the end that tha
guilty may be punished, Justice obtained u
better government established.
Wc emphatically condemn all who abuse tha
confidence placed in them, and use their posl
tlons for personal gain.
Wd also greatly appreciate and approve of
the action of our late county auditors In their
efforts to rectify the wrongs in connection wjthl
the court house repairs, and are surprised that
the court had for them no word of commenda.
tion for their arduous work iu that direction
thus discouraging future auditors who rnsy wish)
to do their whole duty as such.

TERRIBLE TERRY COMING.
What a Celebrated Sporting Writoi
Says of Him.
The critics of the New York papers
never fall to grow enthusiastic when
discussing the physical and mental
makeup of Terrible Terry McGovern,
who will umpire the Scranton-Wilkes-
Barre game on Saturday afternoon antl
give a boxing exhibition with Andy) j
Daly. "Right Cross," sporting editor
of the New York Journal, in analysing
the wonderful little champion, says:
"The crushing delivery of a blow la
as Instinctive with McGovern as Is tho
act of swallowing. You can seo tha
steel raco-l)orse-lIko muscles of thoso
sturdy legs that keep the boy solid!
on his pln3 and at tho same time hava !
all the nervous spring necessary to
lift' the beginning of a punch. Then
look at the net work that binds thol
shoulders. Note that protruding
bunch just below tho socket of tha
arm. Those are the driving rods thatj
follow the spring of tho leg and sendl
the arm forth to Its knockout mls-i
slon. His muscles aro Terry's bank
roll."
