feet. Practical doois of hard wood, ex

To the Voters
"It Is not every county which can present such a showing In the man
agement of Its finances ns can Lackawanna this year: but then It Is not
every county which can boast of commissioners who not only venture to cut
the rate of taxation squarely In half, but who actually follow that up by
showing a clean reduction of outstanding Indebtedness from $315,000 to $100,
dOO, or well nigh DO per cent. The only possible Inference from such an ex
hibit is that Commissioner) Franz, Flanaghan and Halstead, Instead of In
dulging in loud talk, have been quietly sawing wood. And from what l '
have seen of their methods, this Is precisely the milk In the cocoanut. They
are business men first and politicians afterward. And the outcome of their
labors would seem to clinch the contention that this is the order will, o
taxpayers most need."
In the Interest of the people of this county permit me to call your attention to the fact that In
addition to standing resolutely for honest government I have been an aggressive and persistent
fighter for Improvement on'the county roads, bridges und other affairs under the jurisdiction of the
County Commissioner and a watchful guardian of the county's finances.
I have not the means to hire carriages on election day and have no committeemen to extoll
my virtues from the street corners, but I do go before you as a plain, honest citizen, who promises,
if elected, his best service, and one who can point to his past record as a guarantee of what may
be expected of me In the future.
WILLIAM FRANZ.
Company A, of the Eighth regiment,
went to West Plttston yesterday morn
ing to do special patrol duty uiound

of Lackawanna County,
I Beg to Announce That am a Candidate
for the Office of County Commissioner on
the Citizens' Ticket.
I have (lied nomination papers for my candidacy for
the office of County Commissioner and such move was
made only upon the urgent request of many friends who, In
the Interest of good government, directed me to this duty,
My nomination papers bore the endorsement of 292 sound
representative citizens of this community.
Having taken up the fight, I appeal to the voters of
this county to consider my position and recognize the
character of my past record. With no small amount of
pride I point to the following notice which appeared In the
Scranton Tribune,
THE MARKETS
Wall Street Review.
New Yolk, Oct. 10. Today's enily de
cline hi pi ices of stocks repiuseitted the
leticat of the operators who ban bought
yesterday under the liispiiatioii of the
current minors of an imminent settle
ment of the coal stiike. The decline cav
iled some bear selling as an Incident and
the small rall nt the close represented
the coveilng by this room trading ele
ment. The closing Itself was heavy. Af-i-r
the opening selling the market be
came wholly professional lu its piopoi'
tlons and ine total dealings foi lliu day
Jell well below half a million shares. The
lact of the ee of tho Jewish day of
atonement was an incidental factor in
tho glowing dullness of the market and
tlio alsposliina lo close up conlinct. so
Hint the nuukct fell Into practical stag
nation late in the day. The inference
is warranted fiom this state of affairs
that speculative operation has settled into
a feeling ot resignation to a waiting mar
ket, pending tne relief of the money
.stringency, or some tangible development
indicating the prospect of a settlement of
tho coal stiike. The resumption today of
conferences and tho passing of messen
gers back and forth from J. P. Moi can's
office to that of the political leaders who
'aie attempting a. settlement and n per
sonal couicrenee between tlioso leaoeis
and a numbci of coal load presidents
were without nppaicnt effect in ie-awak-ening
esteidaj's hope that a settlement
was at hand. Prices continued to drop
throughout the period of tho conferences
and upon their adjournment with the an
nouncement that the situation remained
unchanged, there wns the upward move
ment of prices due to the bear covering
movement above icferred to. Total sales
for the day. ftit.dOu shares. The bond
market was dull and casv. Total sales,
par value, $1,000,010. I'nited Stales bonds
Mere all unchanged on the last call.
