THE REPUBLICAN. FKIPA.Y, MARCH 17. 18OT. Attend the sale. Locals are scarce. This is St. Patrick's Day. Spring is coming on apace. Shad will soon be in the market. Sunday was a beautiful sun shiny day. Maple sugar will soon be in the market. President Cleveland weighs 247 pounds. Mud will soon be the ruling element. They have scarlet fever in the Montrose jail. The Sullivan county jail is vacant of prisoners. The spring of the hoopskirt is expected to be early. The sleighing parties are about over for this winter. The United States has had 23 Presidents in 104 years. A furniture factory at LaPorte would be a paying investment. Charles Lauer, of LaPorte, is wlsiting friends in Philadelphia. Don't whip your boy for smoking if your mouth is full of tobacco. The snow banks so numerous abont our town, are perceptibly growing smaller. It is estimated that only one couple in 11,500 live to celebrate their golden wedding. A. J. Ettinger, of Laporte. will tell his personal property at public «ale, to-day Thursday. A bill has been passed by the Legislature, increasing •the bounty on wild cats. The man who yearned for an old fashioned winter will henceforth say nothing and shovel snow. Snider & Peter man, of Nordmont, were refused license. We give the judge's opinion elsewhere. The erection of a Catholic church at LaPorte, is receiving the atten tion of our people at present. Charles Tinklepaugh, of Laporte, has recently purchased a brand new piano and a brand new horse. It is said that more than one-half <of the real estate in Tunkhannock iborough is owned by women. The Democrats are now responsi ble for the weather and it has been \very .nasty for the past week, too. Charles Landon, of Jamison City, Will move to Laporte this week and will occupy the William Meylert dwel ling, on Cherry street. Of all insidious and dangerous diseases at this season of the year pneumonia heads the list. Fight as ■hy of it as you would of your worst enemy. A bill has been introduced (nto the House of Representatives to enact a law to make vocal music one .of the studies in the public schools •of our State. .Justices of the Peace chosen at tthe last election, are required by law -to file their acceptance In the Pro -thonotary's office within thirty days after their election. On the completion of the W. & N. B. R. R. brand new cars of the latest model will be placed on the track. There will be nothing slow about this railroad except around the curves. It is said that Montrose will be tfked to entertaiu the Seven County Soldiers' Reunion association. Tunk bannoek was named as the place at first, but that town has backed cut of lbs contract. Laporte is a first class location for hard wood manufacturing. We have the timber near by and the rail road is coming. Who will accept of the site ? There is a fortune in it lor somebody. Dr. Waddell, of Dushore, and Patsy Connor, of Bernice.have pur «based the S. S. Oarey store build* ing at Oushore. This building ad joins and is in the same block with the Sylvara store. And now it comes that President Cleveland will not re-appoint his old office holders. This is to be adhered to even among fourth class post masters. This will change the aspect in many places. The edict has gone torth, and hoops will be worn. By the fashion plates we see that this relic of an odious style of ladies' adornment is to be sprung on us gently. They will allow of three women and a street car occupying the street and +id« at tbe time.—4*. The patent on the Bell telephone has expired. Mrs. C. O. Wilcox, of Dushore, died on Tuesday night. They ny, the new hotel at Hills* grove is doing a fearful"whisky and beer trade. Conrad Kraus, the butcher, is doing a good business in this vicinity. O. Peale, Jr., proprietor of the Allegheny House, Eagles Mere, was transacting business in town, Mon day. The Laj>orte township auditors— Daniel Keeler, S. Mead%nd Isaac T. Low assisted by their clerk, Lee Gavitt, were looking up the financial standing of said township, on Mon day and Tuesday. C. N. Mead, of Laporte, contem plates moving to Muncy Valley the latter part of this week, Mr. and Mrs. Mead have made hosts of friends during their stay at LaPorte. A ferry boat across Main street opposite the LaPorte Hotel would have done a good business on Satur day and Sunday. The water and slush at this crossing was ankle deep. Mrs. Margaret Fiester died at her residence in Shrewsbury township, aged 56 years, on Tuesday February 21st. Burial took place on Thurs day February 23, in Edkin Hill cemetery. A good part of the lumber shipped or hauled to King's trestling on the W. & N. B. R. R. has been con demned by the proper officials. The lumber was purchased of Lopez dealers. The musical convention held at Laporte last week, was a complete failure and the grand concert on Saturday evening capped the climax. ! The stormy and disagreeable weather might have had some effect on the attendance. The new town council met and organized on Wednesday after noon. This honorable body con sists oi the following citizens: Burgess, A Walsh ; Council, James McFarlane; T. J. Keeler; Charles Wrede; Thomas Beahen; F. M. Crossley and R. M. Stormont. A large quantity of ice passed down the Loyal Sock on last Friday damaging the Forksville county bridge to a considerable extent. The abutment braces were torn out, thus making the structure dangerous for teams to pass over and was closed over Sunday and repaired on Mon day and Tuesday. C. W. Champion, of Dushore, and who is canvassing for the Gazette. made us a pleasant call, on Tuesday. Mr. Champion is a first class agent and is meeting we are pleased to say with good success. The REPUB LICAN anticipates securing the ser vices of an agent in the near future, It is authoritively announced that the officials of the W. <fc N. B. li. R. will deliver at Dohm's Summit a large quantity of railroad ties and iron and will commence laying the track at said point in the very near future. The train loaded with ties and rails will reach its destination via the Reading and L. V. tracks. LATEB : Thirty cars arrived at the Summit on Tuesday and Wed nesday loaded with railroad ties. All the territory in the vicinity of Lovelton and Jenuingsville is under lease by oil speculators. The leaseH were made about three years ago, and by terms agreed upon will ex pire at the end of five years unless test wells are put down. Land holders are looking for something in that line to be done in the next two years. An exchange tells of a minister who, in preaching his farewell ser mon to a congregation from which most of his salary was still due, said to them: "I leave you, brethren, for three reasons—first, you do not love me, if you did you would pay me my salary; second, you don't love one another, if you did there would be more weddings, and less fighting; third, the Lord does not love you, if he did there would be more funer als." A couple of Italians who reside in the old school house above the tannery entered Mrs. Lauer's store, on Monday afternoon and attempted to run things. They broke several dishes and did other damage, When help was called from the Kennedy Hotel and the two intruders were put out with each a black eye or two, after which they were arrested by Chief-of-Police P. M. Crossley and placed in jail where they re mained over night and on Tuesday morning were liberated by paying the costs Amounting to $6. Their friends assisted them in raising the fine. A. A. Baker the shingle maker of LaPorte township, is turning ont lots of shingles these days. Baker's mill runs by water power and the reoent freshet supplies him with ample steam. ||Misß Ettittger took charge of the Laporte school, on Wednesday morn ing, and Mr. Remley who was temporarily engaged by the direc tors, has resumed his place with the engineer corps. The borough Constable was in great demand on Monday. There were two Italians and three colored people in town who had a notion of painting our lanlords red. The two Italians were placed in jail about 5 p. m. There was lots of fire water drank at the county scat, on Monday. Six quarrels during the day and even ing, was the result. The town council should consider the advisa bility of putting on an extra police or two. Picture Rocks was flooded with water on last Friday, the result of an ice gorge a short distance above the town. Burrows' furniture establishment was damaged some thing like three thousand dollars. The ice was removed by the use of dynamite. The Social and Missionary com mittees of the Laporte Y. P. S. C. E. are making arrangements to give a Hindoo Tea. It will be under the direction of a Hindoo, (Mr. Rag bir) who has been laboring as a missionary on the Island of Trinidad B. W. I. He wishes to raise SIOOO to build a girls school on the Island of Granada his new field of labor. When a tramp calls on you with a bandaged arm and asks for assist ance you can safely dismiss him without acceding to his request, even though he expresses a willingness to show the bandaged limb, for in order to excite sympathy and show a real sore, some of them have re sorted to the trick of applying caustic, the skin is removed and the raw flesh exposed. The personal property of John Qota, the Frenchman who resides on the Russel place in the vicinity of (Jelestia, was levied upon by Con stable R. M. Stormont, on Tuesday. The debt is for rent and uuless the same is settled, said personal property consisting of cows, sheep, chickens and horse and wagon will be sold at Constable's sale on the 25th. The old gentleman has a rash temper, but was as meek as Moses on Tuesday. Office holders under Cleveland during his first term are gnashing their teeth and vowing vengeance, because the President has declared that they must stand aside for those who have not yet had a chance at the public crib. A large proportion of those at Washington looking for spoils arc ex-office holders, and the discovery that they are to be left out is a sad blow. But it will be good news for those who have been on the hungry list for more than thirty years. Our neighbor exchanges says the W. & N. B. R. R. will be com pleted and train 9 running by the Ist of June. Our exchanges are about two months off, taking the predict ions of our people. With trains run ning on this road by the Ist of July or August and it would not be sur prising if not until the Ist of Sep tember *,he company will accomplish much, judging from the present out look. They also quote seven or eight hundred men at work on the grading. This is not correct. The actual number engaged on the work would fall short at least one-half of this number. It is to be ho ped that the presen will be the last year when the judges will have to act as a license com mission. Senator Haokenberg'g bill divides the State into fourteen dis tricts, in each of which licenses will be dispensed by a commission of six members, to be appointed by the Gov ernor. The commissions are m&de self-sustaining by the requirement that each applicant shall pay a fee of 15, but no commissioner is to receive less than SIOOO or more than S3OOO yearly. The passage of the Hacken berg bill would remove the suspicion that the State of Pennsylvania had no confidence in the people. A prop erly constituted commission can do this work just as well as the judges. Persons who are refused licenses will, of coarse, say that they were refused because they had no "pull," and that licenses granted were granted because the applicants had a "pullbut the commission can stand this kind of talk tetter than the courts can. The performance of this unjudicial labor has already done the courts of the State much harm and the sooner it is discon tinued tbe better. Following la Judge 81tUer*a Opin ion In the Mulder A Petermnn'* license Cmmm, Application of Snider &) In Q. 8. of'Sul- Pelerman for License at > livaa County. Nordmont. J The objection to this license is that there is covenant against using the land for the purpose of selling liquor found in the title under which the applicants claim. The land upon which the building stands proposed to be kept as a tavern, at one time was the property of B. Harvey Welch. He conveyed it by deed to Milton W. Botsford Ist March 1889. It contains this language—-"The party of the second part doth hereby agree not to sell or cause to be sold on the premises any spiritous vinous or malt liquor." The applicants claim under Bots ford through John Watson. If this covenant in the deed runs with the land and binds the appli cants we will not assist them to violate their obligations by granting them a license —In Smith's L. Cases I. P. 182—149 it is said. "The law in Pennsylvania, with regard to covenants capable under any cir cumstances of running with the land and made by tenants in fee may therefore be stated as follows : W hen the land is granted at the time of the covenant made, for life, or years, or in fee, the grant will give rise to priority of estate on which an action will be against a subsequent assignee; but where no estate passes the covenant will be personal to the party making it, and collateral to the land about which it is made, and the assignee will neither be bound to perform it nor liable in case of a breach. And the necessary inference would seem to be that if the owner of land, covenant with a stranger, to pay rent to build or not to erect build ings, the assignee of the land will not be bound by the covenant; but that if such a covenant be made by a grantee in fee and the land subse quently conveyed by him to a third person, the latter will be liable in an action of covenant founded on priority of estato. Hirsh vs. Rodney I Wash. C. C. R. 375—Royer vs. Ake—Herbaugh vs. Zentmyer 2 Rawle 159—Weidner vs. Foster 2 R. & W. 23-In Irish vs. Johnson 1 Jones 483, however, a grantor in fee was said not to be entitled to enforce the covenants in the deed against an assignee of his grantee even in Pennsylvania, but the reasoning of the court would seem applicable rather to those states where the statute of Quia Emptores is in force, than to those where it is not; and the authority of the earlier cases which Irish vs. Johnson overruled was subsequently affirmed in Han nen vs. Ewalt to Harris 9." We have noticed that this covenant does not in express words purport to bind the assignees of Botsford. In some cases this has been held necessary and in others not. In Addison on contracts Bth Ed. P 287—8 of appendix it is said. "A covenant not to carry on particu lar trades runs with the land and ex tends to the assignees though not mentioned in the covenant. See same work Vol 111 * P 1274, Sec also 2 Rawle 159 and 67 Pa. 5J2. In view of these authorities we are compelled to hold that the covenant in question runs wilh the land and binds the assignees although not named and we refuse this license. BY THE COURT. Selling Elqaor wn 1 .Memorial Day. The Pennsylvania State Depart ment Encampment of the Grand Army of the Republic, at its meet ing in Lebanon on Wednesday of last week, adopted the following resolution in reference of Memorial Day : Hesolved, That the day set apart as Memorial Day should be observed in such a manner as to reflect credit upon the Commonwealth of Pennsyl vania and to honor in a fitting manner the sacred memories and patriotic deeds of our departed com rades : we, therfore give our earnest endorsement to all measures that have this patriotic purpose in view, aud to this end we promise our hearty co-operation in favor of the passage of a law by the Legislature to prohibit the sale of intoxicating drinks on Decoration Day. FEW HAVE A SECOND CH ANCE. Office Holder* Under Cleveland Before to be Left Out Now. WASHINGTON, March 9 Kepre sentative SpriDger, who was one of the President's callers to-day, asked him if the rule of not appointing men who had held office under him four years ago was to prevail, as reported. The President replied in the affirmative, and when asked if the rule was inflexible, Mr. Cleveland responded that it would be so sub • stantially. There might be excep tional and extraordinary circum stances which might eause some departures from it, but bs could not call to mind many possibilities to justify a change from the policy decided upon. Mr. Springer asked if the rule was also to apply to fourth class post offices, Mr. Cleveland's response that he had not thought about that, but he gave the decided impression that it would prevail to as great ex tent as possible with the small post masterships.

World's Fair Accoinin*ilati«nM.
