A NEW MAGAZINE.
It la Called Kleon and Will Make
Ita Appearanco Today.
Tlie Tribune Is In receipt of the ad
vance sheets of ono of the most uni
que publications that has ever come
to our notice. It Is In the form of a
twenty-four page magazine, and Is a
triumph of the printer's art.
Kleon Is Its name, and Its scope. Is
bpst explained by quoting from Mir.
Helen D. Gates' article, which close
as follows:
So ne ask of "Kleon," what Is to lie Rained?
The ansvver come, It Is not a mere repetition
of the dally newspaper) It is not a copy of soma
other magarlne; It Is not a gossip, but It Is a
local literary cdort alining to bring out latent
talent In our city for the Rood of all.
Wo will, no doubt, bo surprised at the modest
business men who can write most readable arti
cles on local history or current events, or on
practical success In life.
And we shall be no less pleased with the bright
words of some of our women, who with home
cates and charitable work jet find time for
much reading and thinking.
The tendency to rushing outward activity and
to Impatient seeking for Immediate results may
need its antidote In calmer thinking and more
careful expression.
Wo therefore wish success to this venture, hop.
ing It may serve to add pleasure to the quiet
hours of our families; may glvo suggntlvc helps
to joung men arid women gathered from experi
ence of older and wiser friends; may put an
element of deeper thought Into our business and
political life, and a sweeter touch into our so
ciety. ' The first article Is "Success," by
W. A. May, which no young business
man can afford to leave unread. It Is
a strong. Inspiring article from a man
of experience to the city's youths.
The table of contents is: "Success,"
W. A. May; "Our Valley" (poem), P.
F. Durkan; "Our First Library," Hon.

POLICE OFFICER
SHOT DY PRISONER
James Golden, of Dunmore, Will
Probably Die as the Result of
Wounds Inflicted by Long.
Patrolman James Golden, of the
Dunmore police force, was shot and
seriously injured last night by Tony
Long, a miner at No. 1 shaft, who
escaped in the confusion following the
shooting, and has not been yet dis
covered. Frank Long, a Dunmore barber, nnd
brother of Tony Long, has been ar
rested, accused of complicity in the
crime.
Golden was removed to the Lacka
wanna hospital and early this morn
ing was reported to be In a very
critical condition. Three shots were
fired, two of them taking effect. One
entered over the left hip and the other
lodged in the abdomen.
The fracas occurred at 9.45 o'clock in
front of Anthony Doinlnlck's saloon,
on Chestnut street. Golden was pa
trollng his beat and hearing the sounds
of a quarrel going on in the place
entered and found a gioup of men en
gaged In a loud nltercatlon. Tony
Long seemed to be the cause of the
disturbance and Golden attempted to
remove him, placing him under ar-
st.
Together they left the saloon, the
crowd of men following them. On the
street Long started a furious resist
ance, and the crowd closed In upon
the officer and his prisoner.
Frank Long rushed to the assist
ance of his brother and Golden was
forced to use his club In &elf-defcnse,
striking Tony Long across tho face
with it. Long wrenched himself loose
fiom the oillcer's grip, there was a
flash of steel In his hand, and the
next instant there was a sharp re
port followed by another, and nnother,
and Golden fell to the ground with
a cry, two bullets lodged In his body
and the blood (lowing freely.
All the men present made an Im
mediate rush to his assistance, and
In tho general excitement which fol
lowed, Tony Long, holding a smoking
revolver In his hnnd, and accompanied
by his brother, sprang over a feneo
and dlsapeared up a near-by alley.
Golden was lifted up and carried
Into McCarthy's grocery store, which
Is across the street from Domlnick's
saloon. Ills wounds were staunched and
physicians summoned. Doctors Garvey
and .Stanton, of Dunmore, responded
and made the wounded man ns easy
as possible. He dtd not loose conscious
ness, but every effort to speak pained
him, and It could bo readily seen that
he was in a very bad way.
Dr. Garvey, when asked about Gol
den's condition said; "He Is In a very
critical state. At present It Is Impos
sible to say just what will be the re
sult. His pulse Is good, but, neverthe
less, the wounds are of a very serious
nature and may result fatally." About
11.40 o'clock the Lackawanna hospital
ambulance arrived and tho wounded
man was removed to that Institution.
About an hour after the shootln;r
occurred Frank Long was arrested .it
his home on Chestnut street by Patrol
man O. P. Plglln, of the Dunmore po
lice, nnd was taken to the borough
Jail. He offered no resistance and
would give no Information regarding
his brother's whereabouts.
Frank Long has only been In the
country a short time, but his brother
has lived In Dunmore many years and
bears a very good reputation. He Is
one of the musicians of the Roma
band and has always been known as
a peaceful- law-nbldlng citizen. He la
married and lived on Willow street.
Golden Is a married man and has five
children. He Is one of the recent ad
ditions to the Dunmore force.
Chief of Police Uobllng was notified
of the shooting and, with City Detec
tive John Molr, was on the scene of
action late last night. A careful
search failed to reveal any traces of
Long and the hunt will be resumed
today. All the railway stations were
watched last night and all possible
avenues of escape guarded. It is sup
posed that friends In Dunmore are
keeping him in hiding and will con
tinue to conceal him until the excite
ment partially cools down, when they
will try to get him out of the city.
Long Is about 6 feet 8 Inches In
height and welgs 160 pounds. He wears
a heavy black moustache and Is a
fairly good-looking man. He was well
dressed last night, wearing a plain
black suit. The blow struck him on
the face bruised It badly and will
probably leave marks.

HARD TASK
TO SECURE
CANDIDATES
Odd Problem That Con-
fronted Democratic
Convention,
TICKET THEY NOMINATED
It Is the One Forecast in Yesterday's
Tribune with tho Exception of Jury
Commissioner D. J. Campbell
Was Decided Upon for That Office
When It Seemed That a Tangle
Must Ensue Unless Something
Was Done Norton and Law Nomi
nated to Eill Gaps in tho Ticket.
Resolutions Adopted.
It was a difficult task the Demo
cratic county convention had before
It yesterday.
Ordinarily trouble In a convention
arises out of the fact that there aro
too many candidates for tho offices.
Yesterday the trouble was of the
opposite kind.
It was Impossible to get any per
son to accept some of the nominations
as a gift. The ticket nominated by the
convention follows:
Judge Hon. John P. Kelly, Scranton.
Congress M. F. Conry, Scranton.
Sheriff Charles Schadt, Scranton.
Ircasurcr C. O. Poland, Scranton.
District Attorney James J. O'Malley, Oly
pliant. Prothouotary Matthew F. Norton, C.irbondale.
Clerk of the Courts Thomas Law, Archbald.
Recorder of Deeds Fred W. Warnkc, Scranton.
Register of Wills William Koch, Jr., Scranton.
Jury Commissioner!). J. Campbell, Scranton.
This is the ticket forecasted In yes
terday's Tribune, with tho exception
of jury commissioner, 'fhe fight for
that office was so spirited, because a
nomination Is equlalent tc an elect
tlon, that much bad blood was stirred
up and the leaders, fearing that soma
highly undesirable person might se
cure the nomination during tho tu
mult that seemed likely to occur In
the convention, succeeded in getting
tho most formidable candidates out
of the field and concentrated their
strength on former County Treasurer
D. J. Campbell.
The latter had no ambition In the
way of jury commissioner nnd was
only Induced to accept it after the
leaders had impressed upon him the
necessity of securing the nomination
of a reputable, representative man
for tho office.
NO NOMINEES.
When the convention reached tho
point where nominations for clerk of
tho courts nnd prothonotary were In
order, no ono wanted the nomina
tions, and after some hesitation.
Thomas Law and Matthew F. Norton
were named to fill up the ticket. They
were the candidates for these offices
three years ago and were defeated.
Doth have had the nominations under
consideration for some time, but re
fuse to pny anything in the way of
assessments or even give a definite
answer as to their acceptance. Nor
ton left the city for his home in Car
bondale at noon yesterday. "If you
want to give me the nomination, may-
bo I'll accept it," ho said to the lead
ers. He has It.
Law has given no positive assurance
that he will run, even If the matter
of assessment Is eliminated
It was the flattest, tamest Demo
cratic convention ever held In the coun
ty. There was no enthusiasm, no
cheering. The best hand of the day
was accorded to M. F. Conry when ho
was nominated for congress, and when
he appeared before the convention to
accept the nomination. Tho nomina
tion of Hon. John P. Kelly woke the
delegates up a trifle, but tho men
tion of the names of the other can
didates caused scarcely a ripple.
After tho convention had been called
to order In the main court room
at 10.40 In the morning by County
Chairman F. J. Fitzslmmons, the
county secretary, John J. Coyne,
of Mlnooka, who weighs just one
pound less than the chairman, read
tho call for tho convention and Colonel
Fitzslmmons then appointed M. J.
Cadden, of Scranton; Joseph Brennan,
of Carbondale, and H. J. Deamlsh, of
Scranton, assistant secretaries. Fol
lowing this came the monotonous spot
of all conventions, the preparation of
the roll nnd the reception of the cre
dentials of the delegates.
SWAPPED STORIES.
During this order, the delegates and
spectatois swapped stories, not all of
which were of a political nature, and
the men who were scheduled to make
the nominating speeches strode up and
down the corridors outside the court
room and rehearsed the pieces with
which they expected later on to elec
trify the convention. They had the
laudable desire to be letter perfect In
their parts.
There were no demonstrations while

the credentials were being handed In.
Man nfter man prominent In the af
fairs of his party stepped up and
handed his authority to bs n member
of the convention to the chairman
but no notice was taken of them by
the other delegates or spectators.
When "Hlg" Jim Dunn, of the Third
district of the Sixth ward, of this
city, dragged his 300 odd pounds up to
the secretary's desk, there was a
movement ns If to give him a hand,
but It died a premature death. The
delegates frowned down the attempt.
The roll prepared, Colonel Fitz
slmmons called for nominations for
temporary chairman and Hon. J. J.
O'Neill, of Carbondale, was nominated
by Joseph O'Brien, of this city. He
was unanimously chosen. He was
greeted with applause when Intro
duced by Colonel Fitzslmmons in a
few graceful remarks. Mr. O'Neill, In
taking charge of tho condition, said;
Mr. Chairman and Fellow-Democrats: I thank
jou for the honor yon base conferred upon me
In making me thilrr.ian to incsld over a con
tention such as this. It is at all times an
honor and a pleasure to be called upon to pre
side over such a body.
The Democratic party Is as old as the gu em
inent. It Is as Joung fresh and vigorous today
as when the foundations of this govmiment were
laid. It stands ns dose to the people: Its ends
are for the people, for the delation nf the In
dividual, and Is opposed to the growth of any
system or corporation that is consolidated against
tliem, whether that svstcm Is of money, of diss,
of creed, or of nee
Democracy means the encouragement nf oaih
Individual to strive for his on ndvanccm nt.
It Is in favor nt equal nnd exact laws for all.
It believes in home rule. It believes still In
the Indissoluble union of Indissoluble states. It
is opposed to militarism and foisting upon any
people our governmint without tftelr consent.
Other nations struggling to free themselves
we hope to sec take their places among the na
tions of men.
Wc point with pride to Jefferson, Madison,
Monroe and the heroic Jackson and we hope to
close the century with one. who Is as Illustrious
and ns heroic ns they: who has lived for the
plain people and championed them, William J.
llryan.
COMMITTEES NAMED.
There was a generous demonstra
tion when the name of Bryan was
mentioned. Chnlrman O'Neill, at the
conclusion of his address, named the
following committees:
Committee on Credentials John A. lloran,
Dunmore: John P. McDonald. Carbondale: M. J.
Walsh, Scranton; J. S. Dachnian, Gouldshoro;
Peter Martin, Jermvn.
Committee on Resolutions Prank McfJiath,
Scranton; J. W. Howell, Scranton: John Drimilh,
Scranton; John J. Bridget, Carbondale; Thomas
Scanlon, Scranton.
Committee on Permanent Organization J J.
Tohey, Scranton: James P. Law, Tavloi : Angus
Ollendjke. Throop: Paul W. Atcn.'Xewton; M.
C. Donnelly, Scranton.
The acting secretaries were made sec
retaries of the temporary organization.
and E. C. Newcomb, of this city, moved
that tho convention adjourn until 2
o'clock, to give the committees time to
prepare their reports.
In the afternoon tho crowd began to
assemble In the court room as early as
1.30. Each Incoming batch of delegates
had some fresh story about changes
that were made in the slate dm Ing the
noon recess; of candidates who had
dropped out and others who had pro
claimed themselves. On the whole, the
tenor of tho stories were to the effect
that some difficulty was experienced In
getting a slate that would hang to
gether, even of men who were not very
acceptable to the slate-makers. This
caused a feeling of uneasiness and de
pression among the delegates.
Inability to secure candidates was
surely not n sign that a victory In
November was within hailing dis
tance. In the meantime, the perspiring lead
ers had their own troubles.
SAID NOTHING DEFINITE.
Norton and Law had left town with
out satisfactorily explaining their posi
tion, and no other persons could he In
duced to run. The Jury commissioner
tangle was getting more tangled every
minute, and to add to the trouble, John
E. Regan got a lot of delegates to
gether at the Globe hotel during the
recess, secured pledges of support from
them, nnd then announced that he was
going to make a try for register of
wills, whether they liked it or no.
And he did.
In consequence of all these things It
was 3 o'clock when the convention re
assembled. Chaliman John J. Fahey,
of the committee on permanent organ
ization, read the report of that body.
It favored making the temporary or
ganization permanent. This report was
adopted.
John Horan read the report of tho
committee on credentials, which seated
the following delegates who were either
contestants or were contested:

It. Dunlap, Fiist ward, Ulakclj,

The resolutions, which were as fol
lows, were read by Chairman Frank
McGrnth, of that committee, and
adopted;
THE RESOLUTIONS.
The Democracy of Lackawanna county, In con.
vention assembled, declares Us unfaltering de
votion to the principles of government by the
people enunciated by Thomas Jefferson, the im
mortal founder of the Democratic party, as ap
plied to the stirring isiuea of the present day.
It regards the platform adopted by the Demo
cratic National convention at Kansas City on
July 4, WOO, as a new Declaration of Independ
ence, and firmly believes in the tentiment em
bodied In it that Imperialism, Involving, as It
does, the perpetuity of our Republican In.titu.
tions, is tho paramount Issue in this campaign,
It heartilv endorse and ratifies the nomination
by the National Democratic convention of that
peerless champion of the people's rights, Will
lam Jennings llryan, of Nebraska, for president,
and that sage statesman, Adlal K, Stevenson, for
vice-president, as well as the excellent nomina
tions for state officers made ny the Democratic
convention at Harrlsburg and the nominees of
this convention. We confidently expect their
triumphant election In November.
It deplores the evidences of a lack of sturdy
Americanism on the part of the Republican na
tional administration, as dltplajcd In such hu
miliating diplomatic blunders as the Samoan ar
rangement, the Nicaraguan canal treaty, known
as the Hay-Pauncefote treaty, and the provisional
surrender to Great Hritain of a territory in
Alaska greater In area than the state of Rhode
Island, which had been the property of the Unit
ed States for thirty-three jears. It regards as
particularly shameful the hauling down of the
American flag from over the heads of American
citizens on the American continent at a time
when wc are asserting sovereignty by force over
an alien people of a different civilization In the
Orient seven thousand miles away.
It arraigns the Republican party of Lackawan
na county for extravagance in the man
agement of the affairs of ho county
and charges tho Republican party specific
ally with full responsibility for the causeleu
erntest for the office of county treasurer, which,
tlioimh pending for three years, is still far fiom
the end and which will add a burdn of $150,000
to the already overtaxed people ol the county.
It notes with deep regret tho death, since the
last county convention, of that distinguished
lawyer and able and honest jurist, the late Hon,
Frederick W. Ounster, and recognizes the honor
whiih he reflected upon his party by the wisdom
and discretion which he displayed in the per.
formanca of his Judicial duties,

order of nominating candidates, and

REVENUE OFFICERS
RAID ILLICIT STILL
PROPRIETOR ARRESTED, BUT
LATER ESCAPED.
Complete Plant for Manufacturing
Whiskey Found in House of Mar
tin Miglln Near Archbald Mlglln
Was Arrested by Deputy Marshall
Lowry but Escaped Through n Win
dow After Receiving Permission
to Change His Clothes He Has
Not Yet Been Captured.
Martin Mlglln, a Lithuanian, resid
ing on the back road, between Scran
ton and Archbald, at what Is known
ns the Itldge, was arrested on Mondny
for running an Illicit still by United
Stntes officers, and later escaped by an
old ruse and has not yet been cap
tured. The still was raided and Its
contents confiscated.
The officers who made the arrest
wore Deputy United States Marshal
Clark Lowry, of this city; Deputy Col
lector of Internal Revenue W. D.
Evans, of Carbondale, and It. M. New
hard, of Philadelphia, a special United
States revenue officer. It had been
whispered around for some months
past that Mlglln was making "moon
shine" whiskey, and tho local reve
nue officers decided last week to
send for Mr. Newhard. He arrived In
the city on Wednesday last, and began
gathering evidence.
He considered on Monday morning
that he had sufficient, and he accord
ingly secured a warrant from United
States Commissioner Taylor. Armed
with this, and accompanied by Messrs.
Lowry nnd Evans, he Journeyed to
Mlglln's home, arriving there shortly
after 11 o'clock.
Mlglln lives In a very desolate local
ity, the house being situated on a
lonely part of tho road, Just behind It
being a dense forest. Ho keeps a
saloon In the front part of the building,
while the still was discovered In the
basement of an outbuilding In the
back, used as a kitchen.
MIGLIN ARRESTED.
As soon as the officers reached tho
place Marshal Lowry put Mlglln under
arrest. He resisted for a few moments,
but finally, realizing that It was use
less, gave It up. Newhard and Evans,
In the meantime, went back Into the
kitchen, where they found several
mash tubs, but no mash.
They went downstairs, however, and
discovered a neatlv laid out and per
fectly complete still, having a capacity
of about two barrels a day. A bag of
barley was found here, also, as were
two packages of whiskey, containing
between forty and fifty gallons. Though
no mash was found, It could be easily
seen that the still had been lately
used.
Mlglln's shirt had been torn In his
struggle with Marshal Lowry, and he.
called to his wife, who was upstairs,
to throw a clean one down to him. This
the did, and he then asked the mar
shal's permission to go Into a bedroom,
leading off the kitchen, to put ft on.
This was granted, and Mlglln stepped
Into the room, closing the door behind
him. The marshal Immediately sus
pected something wrong and followed
him. When he reached the room the
man was nowhere to be seen, he hav
ing ran Into tho next room and got
out through the window, running down
the road. He was seen turning a corner
by Deputy Collector Evans, who was
In another part of the house and who
thought he was Mr. Newhard.
A search of the surrounding country
fnlled to reveal his presence, and no
trace of him has yet been discovered.
He Is a short, thick-set man, weigh
ing about ISO pounds, with a florid
complexion and brown hair and mous
tache. He has the Lithuanian cast of
countenance.
STILL CONFISCATED.
The officers confiscated the still and
whiskey and brought them to this city.
They also took possession of a gun an I
two revolvers found lying handv be
hind the bar. Marshal Lowry said yes
terday that Mlglln had frequently been
heard to threaten that he would kill
any United States officer who ever at
tempted to enter his place, and the
marshal believes that had he got a

have done so.
One of the essentials for a successful
prosecution In a case of Illicit whis
key making Is the evidence of some
Person who hnB seen the still work
ing. Tho revenue officers say they havo
this from a man who formerly boarded
with Mlglln, and who Is ready to take
the stand and swear that he saw ths
