LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
Under this heading short letters el intartit
will be published when sccompanied, for publica
tion, by the writer's name. The Tribune docs sot
iML-rae re.ponaibility lor opinions here sxpreised.
REPLY TO W. E. CURTIS.
Editor of The Tribune.
Sir: I beg spate in ;our aluable paper to
try to answer an, article which appeared in the
Chicago Record and which was written by Wil
liam E. Curtis. This gentleman may be an able
newspaper man, but it seems to me that, as far
as this article is concerned, either he don't under
stand mining or he Ins been misguided by some
body, or else he has wilfullj lied to the public
for the sake of injuring the cause of the miners
on strike for belter wages and better conditions.
I would say that the month of August, 1000, the
one selected by Mr. Curtis, is, I believe, the
best month that we hate teen in the anthracite
coal fields tor min jean, and should not be
taken as an cximple of what the mine woikers'
wages arc the cir aioiind. But the month in
question does not gic the miners whit Mr.
Curtis claims.
I lmc here Ik fore me a luge number of due
bills belonging to those mm whose names ap
peared in the article complained of, and I was
just wondering whether or not Mr. Curtis had
seen the paj-roll of this company where some
of these men who-e names he mentions hac
not reicited one tent of these wages for months.
If not, I will call his attention to them. Now,
Martin Lawless, for the months of Apiil, June,
Jflly, August and September, slid not draw one
lent of pay; it was all taken In the pliick-mc
store. The next that I will call jour attention
to is that of Williim Gouse, who in the month
of June, 1000, himself and hborer, worked four
dijs and rccebed $1.7.1 for the whole, or S7!
cents each for four days woik. In December,
1&01), his earnings and expenses were the same,
m that he did not teiebe any pay. Again, Wil
li mi Sucklcss worked twenty-four daja in Marth,
1'iUii, uf about twibo to futirtecn houis pir
ihj. and received J21.70 in pa incut for it. I
could multiply thisc cases, but I will stop and
follow Mr. Curtis down his list, for I don't
suppose tint he has seen any of those that I
lmc just mentioned; for he wasn't looking for
the in, tint's not his business.

I am afraid of making this article to long, so
I will close by sa,lng to Mr. Curtis and the
public that these wages are for the most part
Hie fruit of the strike tint wr Lad, lasting
from .pill 11, 1000, to June 10, 1900; also that
oome of these nun hue loided their coal in the
day, und cut the rock at night. Nuw, Mr. Curtis
sa that by inmligating he finds that the
man who earns $4i0 a month has worked twice
as long and twice as hard 11s the man who Ins
only earned MO a month. Kury bieakei boy In
tho anlhiacite coal fields could tell Mr. Curtis
that the opposite of his statement Is the fact
in the case, The man that works the hardest
in tho anthracite coal mines in the man that
recclus the least pay, Samuel L. Mojgans,

Mckinley should
Common Councilman H. E. Pnine, who is one of the leading in
surance men of the city, and who is generally recognized as having
sound views on political questions gave the following reasons last
night for favoring the re-election of President McKinley:
"I am in favor of re-electing President McKinley principally be
cause during the four years of his administration he has proved him
self a wise statesman and a president who has been able to rise to
the ocasion of every emergency which has arisen.
"When the Maine was blown up in the harbor of Havana, and war
with Spain was declared in quick succession, President McKinley
grasped the situation, showing himself to be patriotic and resource
ful. He carried the nation through this war to the entire satisfaction
of every patriotic American and maue no mistakes.
"I believe that his Philippine policy has been wise and conducive
to the very best interests of the inhabitants of those unhappy isl
ands. In the late trouble with China he lost no time in sending to
Fekin all the forces necessary to assist in relieving the beleaguered
Americans in that city.
"In these three events which have given him the opportunity
to display his statesmanship and executive ability, President Mc
Kinley has shown himself to be a man of wonderful resource.
"I have no confidence whatever in Mr. Bryan. He might possi
bly again distinguish himself in congress but I think he is lacking
in the. qualifications required in the executive head of a great nation
like these United States."
yesterday supplied with water by the
Scranton company.
For over a year negotiations have
been on between the two companies,
and as during the past two years the
Dunmore company experienced great
difficulty in meeting the ever-growing
demand in the borough, it seemed in
evitable that the Scranton company
would finally assume control of the
supply.
For the last three or four weeks the
residents of Dunmore have been con
stantly complaining that the water was
unsatisfactory and for about a week
now there has been almost a water
famine In the borough. Tho water In
the Dunmore reservoir has been ex
ceedingly low. For the past few days
tlio reservoir was supplied by only an
inch stream, which tiny rivulet was
totally inadequate. Unless an unusual
ly heavy downpour of rain occurred the
company would have been unable to
supply tho borough for mote than one
day.
SCHANTON WATER USED.
Yesterday the borough was supplied
with water by the Scranton Gas and
Water company, which turned the fluid
into the Dunmore company's mains--from
Lake Scranton, as a result of
which the borough was yesterduy fur
nished with a satisfactory supply. The
Dunmore reservoir formerly had a
capacity of forty-nine million gallons,
and In Juno of this year the company
decided to raise tho dam four feet, by
which the capacity was enlarged twen
ty million gallons. Tho company also
owned two small reservoirs on the
mountain, which flowed Into the Dun
more reservoir, and together had a
capacity of about twenty-five million
gallons. At Little Roaring Brook the
company had a magnificent water
shed.
The negotiations between the two
companies came to a head a few days
ago, and were terminated Wednesday
afternoon, when the final terms of
settlement were arranged between
President W. W. Scranton, of tho local
company, and President George B.
Smith, of tho Dunmore company,
Tho bunmoro company was organ
ized In 1868, and up to about two years
ago always gave complete satisfaction.
Tho officers of tho association 'were:
President, George B. Smith: secretary
and treasurer, Henry Beyea, of Dun
more; superintendent, S. B. Bulkley, of
Dunmoro; directors, George B. Smith,
Henry Beyea, W. B. S. Thorite, or New

WAS THERE PROBABLE
CAUSE FOR CONTEST?
City Solicitor VoBburg Will File
City's Answer to Request That
It Pay Costs of tho Contest.
City Solicitor Vosburg will today file
his answer to the rule granted by court
on himself und Mayor Molr, directing
them lo show cause why probable
cause should not be declared to have
fxlstetl to Justify the bringing of tho
Ulghth ward election contest und why
the cost of such contest should not bo
paid by tho city.
This rule was petitioned for and ob
tained by 13. W. Thayer and M. J. Me
Andrew, examiner and stenographer,
respectively, because court, In handing
down the opinion deciding tho contest
In favor of tho respondent, William If.
Thomas, failed to dispose- ,of the mat
ter of costs.
Mr. Vosburg does not believe that
tho city should bo saddled with this
big bill of costs, which will amount to
nearly $1,500, and In bis answer bo af
firms that there was no probable cause
existing which would justify tho bring
ing of tills contest as, ho contends, was
amply shown by tho testimony taken.
He states that it can bo proved by
the examiner's report that tho contest
ant had a greater majority against
him at the cud of the contest than wut
shown on the face of thu returns orig
inally made.
He further states that the whole con-
ii-f-f-r -ff f-t-f-f
be re-elected.
test appears to be unfounded, and that
there la nothing upon the face of the
records to indicate that tho contestant
had any probable uaubc whatever to
justify the bringing of the contest. In
conclusion, he asks that the costs be
imposed upon the contestants, instead
of upon the city. The matter will be
argued next Monday morning In argu
ment court.
The decision of court in tho ease will
probably have a great bearing on the
final disposition of the costs in the
celebrated Langstaff-Kelly contest,
which is now In statu quo. Tho act
of assembly which became law on
April 2S. 1S99, provides for the filing of
a bond by at least five of tho petition
ers for a contest, so that in case tho
costs were settled on tho contestant,
the examiners and others would have
security for the payment of their al
lowance. Before this act was passed the court
had discretionary power in the matter
of filing a bond, and in neither the
Lungstuff nor the Eighth ward con
tests was such a bond required by
court. If it should be decided, there
fore, that the contestants are liable for
tho payment of the costs In the Eighth
wind contest und in the other, when
that is decided, it will be necessary, in
the absence of a. bond, for tho examin
ers and stenographers to bring suit
against each and every one of tho peti
tioners, which would be a very tedious
and expensive thing to do.

OVATION IN
PIONEER CITY
CANDIDATES GIVEN AN EN-
THUSIASTIC GREETING.
Received by a Big Assemblage of
Citizens and Escorted to the Opera
House with Music nnd Fireworks.
Not a Third of the Crowd Who
Wanted to Hear Congressman
Brumm and A. J. Colborn, Jr.,
Could Be Accommodated in tho
Theater.
Carbondalo fairly outdid Itself last
night in Its enthusiastic greeting to
the Republican county candidates and
the speakers who accompanied them
to plead the cause- of lUpubllcanlsm.
The party arrived from the county
sent at 7 o'clock. They were mot by
tho Mozart band and tho City Repub
lican club. Carriages were furnished
for tho visitors and reception com
mittee, whllo nearly a thousand
formed in lino nnd paraded tho prin
cipal streets.
It was certainly a Republican night.
Even the air seemed to be laden with
Invigorating Republicanism. It put
life into tho spectators all along the
lino. They cheered and hurrahed,
turned on the llmo light anil senfup
tlio ted lire in a manner that left no
doubt as to bow they will vote on the
6th of November.
When the procession reached tho
Grand Opera House there were three
times as many in the throng a.s could
gain entrance and the seats and
stundlug loom weru occupied In next
to no time. Occasionally n Democrat,
who found tho arraignment of hia po
litical idols too hot. would leave tho
audience and inuko room for un eager
man on tlio outside, hungry for the
truth about tho great problems which
had been perplexing hi"? mind.
KIMBALL CHAIRMAN.
(J. S. Kimball acted as chairman,
nnd after the T. J. Reynolds Glee
club had rendered a couple of selec
tions, ho introduced,' in his usual hap
py style. Congressman Brumm, of
Pottsviilc.
The honorable gentleman waded
right Into his ,ubj;ct and illuminated
it with all tho lire of his ardent na
ture. He did not mince matters. Ho
contradicted Bryun'a extravagant and
impossible promises about a stable)
government for tho Philippines which
ho proposes to establish in a minute
with McKlnley's calm and deliberate
execution of affairh with McKlnley's
promise to establish a stable govern
ment as soon as he can.
The congressman declared he is an
Imperialist an imperialist to tho
backbone, but the kind of Imperialism
he believes In is tho imperialism ot
the American home, where every
mother Is an empross and every father
an emperor.
The speaker then elaborated upon
the immense moral influence of this
republic. Like the aurora borealis
from the north it shone down on the
Brazilians of the south and they
thirsted for a republic until they
forced the last monarch from Ameri
can soil.
ABOUT THE TRUSTS.
In dealing with the trusts Mr.
Brumm said that the people had seen
fit to trust the Democrats with four
years of government, but ho didn't
think they would do it again, In clos
ing he cited the fact that Democrats
throughout tho state have never
shown any generosity in allowing Re
publican representation on the bench
when they could prevent it. "What
is sauce for the goose is sauce for the
gander,"he said and we should discard
all maudlin sentimentality and elect
a Republican judge in this county,"
In which opinion the audience con
curred, as it showed by its applause.
A. J. Colborn, Jr., was next intro
duced by Chairman Kimball and for
forty-five minutes he had the big au
dience bursting into applause at his
every period. It was on of Mr. Coi
born's most eloquent efforts on the
stump in this county and those who
had the pleasure of hearing it little
wondeied that his services are in such
demand by the national committee.

For Boys.
We have always real
ized that it takes more
than cloth and a tailor
to make stylish boys'
clothes. To good ma
terial and skilled work
manship must be added
a perfect knowledge of
tho newest styles of
the season. The new
"Russian Blouse" heads
the list for the season ;
also some pretty novel
ties in "Vestee Suits."
our showing of new
things for the boys has
already pleased many
of the mothers in this
city. Our prices are
never high considering
the quality, and we fully
guarantee all clothes
that leave this store.
