CONNELL HAD
NO HAND IN IT
RANK INJUSTICE OF A CHEAP
SYMPATHY PLAY.
Democratic Leader Admits There Is
No Truth in the Allegation That
William Connell Was Responsible
for George Howell's Retirement
from the Position of City Superin
tendent of Schools Undignified
Tact!c3 of Mr. Sando's Supporters
Have a Boomerang Effect Repub
Havc a Boomerang Effect.
t.ast night's 'limes contained a tenr
stnlucd story of how George Howell
was "retired" from the position of city
superintendent of schools by the "heavy
hand" of William Connell. The vote by
which Mr. Howell was ousted was 16 to
r. Of the sixteen who voted against
him, nine) were Democrats, Only three
of the twelve Democrats on the board
voted for him. Nine out of twelve
Democrats on a board of twenty-one
voted to put nn out-and-out Republi
can In his place.
A Tribune reporter last evening asked
T. J. Jennings, the Deinocratlu leader
on tho school board, In what mannpr
AVllllam Connell had retired Mr. How-ell
from the position of city superintend
ent. Mr. Jennings replied;
"AVhy, Connell had nothing to do
with that. It was" and then Mr. Jen
nings stopped. AA'hat Mr. Jennings
might have said, had he not recol
lected that he was a Democrat and
that Mr. Howell Is now a Democratic
candidate, would probably make Inter
esting reading.
Those who have lived here and here
abouts for any considerable length of
lime will not attach much weight to a
charge against AVllllam Connell that ho
Is given to throwing men out of em
ployment. In fact, there are those who
will admit that his Inclinations aro
somewhat of an opposite trend.
a
One thing about which the Republi
cans can well felicitate themselves Is
the solidarity of their ranks. The or
ganization Is perfect, everybody Is
working In harmony with everybody
else and not as much as one "kicker"
of any consequence has to be placated.
County Committeeman Thomas H.
Dale said yesterday with enthusiasm:
"In ton years there has not been such
perfect harmony In the party. Very
few men, of any consequence and not a
single man of real consequence Is out
side the breastworks. Most gratifying
of all Is the fact that every worker In
the party Is not only with the ticket,
but with It In a most enthusiastic
manner. How any Republican candi
date can be defeated in this county
this campaign is beyond me to fathom."
In striking contrast with the happy
conditions on the Republican side aro
those obtaining with the local Dem
ocracy. Hundreds of the decent men
of the party aro openly declaring they
will have no hand In furthering the
desperate and despicable plot to steal
the convention which a few of the
would-be leaders hatched at midnight
in Hotel Schadt, and hundreds of oth
ers, who feel they can not afford to
disclose their purpose of rebuking the
pirates, can be counted upon to quietly
register In the voting booth their dis
approval of the mean, shabby treat
ment accorded Thomas P. Hoban.
The contemplation of this Is no more
consoling to the Democratic leaders
than is the further fact that the one
hundred and thirty-four practical, ac
tive, party workers, scattered over the
whole county, who were driven out of
the alleged convention by the high
handed methods of the Hotel Schadt
conspirators will be found at their re
spective booths on election day bent on
preventing the consummation of the
plotters' designs. Not the least of
Democracy's troubles is the succession
of "fizzles" In their "mass" meetings.
Every one of the comparatively few
which they have attempted to hold
have been "frosts" and some of them
were complete failures. At Dunmore,
one night last week, with Candidate
Howell on the platform, the meeting
was dismissed without a word from
any speaker. And the meeting had
been advertised with an unusual ex
penditure of band music and printers'
ink.
The following bearing on the alleged
conspiracy against the Anti-Machine
candidate for orphans' court judge has
been received:
Kdltor of The Tribune
Sir: In view of the preposterous claims
made by the Democratic candidate for
orphans' coiu-t Judge, a Mr, Sando, that
he Is tlio victim of a conspiracy and the
Innuendo on the part of tlio editor of
tlio Scrauton Times that tlui Republi
can candadato for that olllco was hi some
mysterious way concerned In it, It secnu
proper to us to publicly express tlio feel
ings of tho mine workers upon this mat
ter, as we hear It discussed among them,
and wo aro both members of tho United
Mlno Workers of America,
Tho only conspiracy that wo know any
thing about Is tho reported deal mado
between Sheriff Schadt, Sando, Fahey,
and sumo other Democratic machine
leaders, at Motel Schadt, tlio night before
the Democratic convention, by which
Mr. Hoban was cheated nut of tho nomi
nation. Although ho unquestionably had
a largo majority of tho fairly elected
delegates, wo know that advantage was
taken of Mr. Rohan's attendance upon
tho funeral of his mother to carry out
this abomlnablo deal. Surely a creditable
position for a Judicial candidate to take,
and It is lefreshlng to seo tho machine
made nominees of a main-strength con
vention running upon an nntl.niaclilno
ticket, and shouting conspiracy,
AVo know all about tho editor of tho
Democratic paper, who Is resorting to
uncalled for ami malicious attacks upon
the Republican candidates, and Is at
tempting to put on an air of Injured In
nocence, and to assume a poso of friend
ship lor tho worklugnien. AA'e know I.y
uett na a director of tho Dlmo bank, an

This Is what the Wllkos-Barrc Rec
ord had to say yesterday of tho ad
dress of ex-Postmaster General Charles
Emory Smith, delivered at the big
Pennypackcr meeting In that city, Sat
urday night:
All of tho addresses were of a high
standard, but tho speech of tho evening
was delivered by ox-Postmaster General
Smith. It was tho most brilliant cam
paign oration that has been delivered In
this city In years and It mado nn Impres
sion that will bo of material boncilt to
tho Republican candidates In this cam
paign. In eloquence,, purity of diction and
forceful English It was a masterpiece. Ho
held his audlenco spellbound during Its
deliverance, and though ho spoke for
more than nn hour tho audlenco regretted
to seo him conclude. Ills peroration on
tho flag was a magnificent climax to a
great speech, Its sublimity of thought and
patriotism moving tho vast multitude to
applause that continued for sovoral min
utes after he had taken his seat.
Mr. Smith will be one of the two
speakers at next Friday night's Re
publican rally in the Lyceum. Tho
other will be Hon. Stuart McKlbbon,
the eloquent Illinois congressman. Mr.
McKibbon's services were in demand
by all tho Republican committees, both
national nnd state. The congressional
committee finally, secured him for six
speeches, the most he could possibly
spare time for. In getting one of these
six speeches allotted to Scranton. the
local committee accomplished one of
the most gratifying things It has
achieved In this regard. Those who
will be fortunate enough to get Into the
Lyceum Friday night will hear two
masterly political addresses. Charles
Kmory Smith and Stuart McKlbbon at
the one meeting Is assurance of a rare
treat.
A
Tomorrow night's Republican mass
meeting in St. David's hall, West
Scranton, will be addressed by three of
the best speakers the county committee
has been able to secure. Congressman
Vreeland, Congressman Sherman and
Major McDowell need no introduction
to any one who keeps In touch with
national affairs. An interesting and
profitable evening can be assured all
who hear them.
At the borough building in Throop,
Thursday night, there will be a Repub
lican mass meeting which will be ad
dressed by J. M. Harris, M. AA". Lowry
and R. A. Zimmerman. On Saturday
night, at Father Mathew hall, In Oly
phant, a meeting will be addressed by
ex-District Attorney John R. Jones, M.
W. Lowry and ex-Recorder James
Molr.

WELL PLEASED AUDIENCE.
Attended R. R. Y. M. C. A. Enter
tainment in Music Hall.
A large and well-pleased audience at
tended the opening entertainment In
Music hall last evening of the Railroad

furnished a varied programme, nearly
every number of which was encored.
The quartette Is composed of Frank
J. Corbett, tenor; F. Reado Winant,
baritone; AVllllam Heaton, tenor, and
Douglas Lane, basso. They sang "The
Night Is Still." "The Sparrow's Twit
ter, liie Silent Watorllly," "Tho
Rockaby Lady," ond other encore
numbers, nil o which proved to be de
lightful selections.
Each member ulso sang solo numbers,
in which their splendid voices were
heard to good advantage. Mr. Hartley
earned a number of curtain calls
through his clever impersonations and
ventriloquism, and appeared to have
added new features to his act.

NIGHT SCHOOLS ARE
SOON TO BE OPENED
Teachers' Committee to Receive
Petitions from Various Wards.
Rules for Janitors.
The matter of opening night schools
was brought up at Inst night's meeting
of the board of control by F, S. Bar
ker, nnd on his motion tho whole ques
tion wns referred to the teachers' com
mittee. All controllers wishing to havo
night schools opened In their wards aro
expected to present proper petitions,
signed by taxpayers, asking that such
schools be opened.
Chairman Roche, of tho building com
mittee, presented a number of rules for
the guidance of the Janitors In the
several school buildings. These rules
were referred back to tho committee for
careful consideration. They provide
among other things that all teachers
shall leave their school rooms no later
than 3.43 p. m. every day and. fix tho
time for doing all cleaning and dust
ing. Among the other duties prescribed
Is that of watering the plunts. Mr.
Francois considered this to be beneath
the dignity of the janitors and so in
formed tho board.
On recommendation of the building
committee Mrs. John Larkin was ap
pointed as janitor at No. 25 annex, and
John E. Jones was named ns assistant
janitor at No. 14 school, at the usual
salaries paid.
On recommendation of the Insurance
committee the following Insurance was
ordered placed by the officers of tho
board: No. 12, O. F. O'Malley, $1,230;
No. 11, AA'. T. Hackett, $5,000; No. 22,
M. J. O'Malley, $3,000; No. 26, AValtcr
B. Christmas, $4,300.
On motion of H. J. O'Malley the new
No. 22 school In the Third ward was
accepted and final payment to the con
tractor ordered. Mr. O'Malley an
nounced that arrangements have boon
made to move Into the new building
today. The building committee was
authorized to advertise for bids for tho
old building and to dispose of it to the
highest bidder.
Prof. AV. C. Joslln, principal of the
High school, sent in a communication
announcing as a matter of Interest that
Horace E. Chundler, who was a mem
ber of last year's graduating class, has
taken a special prize offered by Brown
university for the best work In mathe
matics done by pupils taking the en
trance examination. Excellent work Is
also being done by High school 'stu
dents at the Massachusetts Institute of
Technology, Dr. Joslln said:
The high and training committee was
t uthorized to dispose of the old Home
for. tho Friendless building on Adams
avenue to the person offering tho
highest bid. This building is located on
the site which the board has purchased
for the erection of the new manual
training school and annex to the High
school.
The matter of purchasing a number
of flagpoles for several of the schools
was referred to the building committee,
despite the protest of Mr. Jayne, who
contended that these were luxuries
which could be dispensed with now
that the finances of tho board are In
such straightened condition.
The supply committee did not bring
up the matter of purchasing tho Tiffany
Industrial cabinets which they decided
to recommend tho purchase of some
time ngo. A committee of teachers
met last week, and after exnmlnlng
the cabinets formulated a report on
them, which wns given to tho com
mittee. It Is understood that this re
port was unfavorable, though the mem
bers of the committee avIII not admit
this. It is generally understood, how
ever, that they havo rescinded their
former action and will not recommend
the purchase of the cabinets.
Resolutions, expressing the board's
sense of sorrow at the death of Prof.
M. D. McCawiey and extoling his vir
tues ns a citizen and his ability as a
teacher, were offered by Mr. Lungan
and unanimously adopted.
"SONG OF LABOR" AWARD.
Prize Divided Between W. J. Davis
and Rov. David Pugh Griffiths.
In connection with the National Eis
teddfod held In this city last May the
Truth'' offered a prize or $30 for the
best "Song of Labor." It was found
Inexpedient to award the prize at that
time because the contributions Avere
not deemed worthy of the subject by
the adjudicators, and the contest re
mained open until Labor Day.
Last evening tho Truth contained tho
following announcement with refer
ence to tho contest: "Hon. II. M. Ed

A little progress Avas mode yesterday
In uwardlng the fruits of their victory
to tho contestants In The Tribune's
Hducntlonnl Contest, which closed so
successfully on lust Saturday evening.
A number of the contestants called at
the ofllco to select their scholarships,
but in most cases they were those
whoso names had not been reached yet.
Owing to tho fact that seven out of tho
first ten leaders live a distance from
Scranton It wns hard to get Into com
munication with them. Tho follow
ing three lenders have formally made
their choice: ,
Augustus .1. Kcllcrmun, of Scran
ton, selected Scholashlp No. 9, a three
years' course In Keystone academy, at
Factoryvllle, covering tuition, board,
furnished room, heat, light and wash
ing. This scholarship is valued at
$600. x
Maxwell Shepherd, of Carbondnle,
selected Scholarship No. G, In the WII1
lamsport Dickinson seminary, at Wlll
lainsport, Pa., a three-years' course,
covering tuition, bourd, furnished room,
bent, light and washing, of a total
value of $750.
Oscar II. Klpp, of Elmhurst, select
ed Scholarship No. 7, In the Dickin
son Collegiate Preparatory School, at
Carlisle, Pa., a three-years' course,
covering, tuition, board, furnished room,
heat, light and washing. This schol
arship is also worth $750.
Most of yesterday afternoon was
consumed In trying to reach Charles
Burns, of Vnndllng, who has fourth
choice. The effort was not successful
nnd so no further progress could bo
made.
Ono Error in the Table.
By an unfortunate error Miss Jane
Mathewson, of, Factoryvllle, was not
credited with all the points due her in
yesterday's announcement of the re
sult. One slip, containing six points,
was overlooked, and instead of her
complete score being 101 points, as an
nounced, It should be 1G7. This will
give Miss Mathewson twentieth place,
Instead of twenty-first. As she was
In no way to blame for the mistake,
the table has been corrected.
All of the contestants who were seen
or sent messages yesterday appeared
to be delighted with tho result. Not
a note of disappointment was heard In
the chorus or happiness. Curious to
relate, all seemed to havo finished bet
ter than they expected.
An error was made in tho biograph
ical sketch of Mr. Rodriguez. Instead
of his being born in Cuba, Mr. Rod
riguez is a native of Scranton and Is 11
years old. He was the youngest of
the contestants who took part in tho
six months' competition, but he out
distanced nearly all of his older fellow
contestants with seeming ease.
Letters from Contestants.
Tho following letter from Mr. Rod
riguez was received yesterday. It was
the first written expression of thanks
to be received, although several suc
cessful contestants called up the Con
test Editor on the telephone, or came
in to The Tribune ofllco to tell how
much they appreciated The Tribune's
offer:
