It is only a question of time when
the entire world will wako up to the
fact that Brother Jonathan Is equally
determined not to trespass ou the
rights of others or to allow others n
trespass on his, own.
Conqhess has been In session for
over three months and has done
nothing in legislation. When elected
Us 160 Democratic niajurlty was going
to repeal the McKlnley turifT law and
substitute a "tarlll reform" rueasuie
for It the flist week after organizing ;
and thetsecond week was tet aside for
passing a free silver coinage bill 1
Another Btep in the steady progress
of reciprocity has been taken by the
Issuing of a proclamation by Presi
dent Harrison announcing the com
pletion of negotiations for reciprocal I
trade with Nicaragua. The proclama
tion bears date March 12, and the new
arrangement is to take efiect on April
15. Despite the recent decision of the
Bupreme Court and the acknowledged
success of the reciprocity polloy, it is
too much to expect from the opponents
of the Administration fair dealing
with this subject. The latest bugaboo
is that the reciprocity claube is to be
used for "retaliation." The United
Stntoa lino flonlf nnnnlir nrwl f'llrlir niifl
used all honorable means to bring
about reciprocal trade relations with
all countries interested.

tariff as a measure of relief. The
commission consisted of twenty-three
persons of high character and ability.
They reported iu December, 18S6, and
were unanimous in their agreement
that a great depression then existed
in tho trade and industry of Great
Britain.. They differed about the
causes of the depression and differed
about tho measures necessary to re
move it and to revive prosperity.
The minority recommended a pro
tective tariff as tho best means to this
end. None ol the recommendations,
either of the majority or the minority,
was ever carried out and tho condition
of things with the manufacturing and
laboring elements has grown worse
rather than better than they were
when this commission was appointed.
Such Illustrations as these and com
parison of these facta with the pros
perity of the United States under a
protective policy should fully satisfy
the people of this country that pro

follow.

THE FIRST WARD CONSTABLE
IN COURT
FOR SHOOTING MIKE BOBBIN

Was Running: to Make His
Escape Names of tho
Jurors.
OlilCEMEN and con
stables of tho county
will anxiously awuit
tbo result of the caso
of Constable Jerry
Toomey, of tho First
ward, now on trial at
tho Pottsvillo court
for having shot and killed a Polo named
Mike Bobbin. Toomey claims tho shoot
ing was done in tho performance of his
duty as an officer to prevont tho escape of a
prisoner.
On tho 8th of December last Toom-iy
and other officers were summoned to quell
a dieturbanco at tho cast end of Contra
stroot. Arriving at tho placo they found
that a crippled Hungarian and a friend had
beon badly beaton by a gang of Pole?.
Chase was givon to a crowd teen running
away and Dobbin was arrested with three
or four others. The officers started for tbo
lockup with their prisoners, Toomey hav
ing charge of Bobbin, who behaved quietly
and said it was not necessary to handcuff
him, as ho would willingly go to Iho lock
up. Whilo walking along Oak street Bob'
bin asked to be allowed to step Into tho al
loy that runs between Main and Jardir
etroots. Toomey complied with tho re
quest, but kept close to his man.
Bobbin then started off. Toomoy ordered
him to halt, but ho only Increased his pace.
Aftor another order to halt Toomoy fired
three shots. One of them entered Bobbin's
back, but tho man kept on running and
made a circuit until he got behind the
school building on West Centro streot,
There ho was captured. He was removed
to his boarding houso and was subsequently
transferred to tho Minors' Hospital, where
he died. Aflor his death Toomey was
arrested and was released under bail on
habaas corpus proceedings before tho
Pottsvillo court. It is also claimed In
Toomey's bohalf that tho officer had no
intention of killing or soriously wounding
.Bobbin and expoctod that if any of the
shots should take effect tho man would be
hit In tho leg and bo brought to a halt.

THE REORGANIZATION.
A Correspondent's Version of tho
Late Caucuses.
Editor Hka alb : Undor tho caption of
"Shenandoah's now Trouble" a correspon
dent to the Pottsville Republican tries to
show how three mombors of tho Citizens'
party attempted to turn tbo town over to
tbo old water company, tho electric railway
and "tho gang." Now wo will look at the
other sido of tho question. Tho trouble
commenced soon after tho water committee
was appointed by Council. Who com
posed said committee? Messrs. Betteridge,
Sehelfly, Gable, Lamb, Jamos and Wurm.
This commlttoo would give little or no in
formation to several mombors of Council.
On January 7th, Lamb presented a resolu
tion for tbo eignaturoB of tho mcmbors of
Council, endorsing all tho committee hud
dono aed was going to do, although they
gave llttlo information as to what I .d
been dono, and nono as to the cost of water
works. As may bo supposed, some mem
bors refused to sign tho resolutions. Be
fore this Mr. James, In visiting Kielmrd
Amour, thon Chief of Police, and who
was sick, stated to tbo Chief tlmt all tht
old polite would be retained. But on a
visit after the resolutions were presented
ho said it was not quite sure that tho Chief
would get his plnco again, because his
brother, E. W. Amour, had refused to
sign the resolutions. Who attendod the
caucus that was giving out offices at this
dato? The water committee, Scheifly ex
cepted. This committee, composed of three
Citizens aud two Democrats, had laid plans
for a deal and was proceeding to carry, it
out. At Iho ward convention Wurm was
out of it, but the deal went ahead. It had
Already been 6 luted that Holman and
Amnur would not be in it. At the reor
gaiiizalion of Council, when questioned by
Amour on this point, Messrs. James and
Lamb made no answer. The arliclo states
thnt onFebruary 20.h Limb asked Amour
to tome Into a caucus. What Lamb said,
was, "Wo will havo a caucus early next
weok, so that wo can understand each
other." L.imb met Holman tho same
evening and askod him to come
to a caucus. Holman answorod,
"Whon you are ready, send for me and I
will come." Lamb met Hopkins tho sarno
evening, but nevor said a word about cau
cus to him, Jlolman was noyor sent for,
neither was Amour or Hopkins. On the
221 of February Lamb mot Amour and
said "We will not havo a caucus until
right up to the reorganizntlan." Now why
was It put oil? Because thoy wore con
summating their deal. There were already
five Citizons and two Democrats In it, and
a third Democrat had beon approached, so
that when tho meeting would bo held the
claims of Holman, Hopkins and Amour
would bo Ignored. They would be com
pelled to submit to the othor five Citizens;
for if they kicked there wero thrae to tako
their places, and they would lie out. It had
boen decided that It. Amour and D. J.
Omners should be put off the police force.
Hopkins having boon asked to make a
stand against Conners positively refused to
do so. To pr.va that a deal had bean made
by Lamb, James and others, take the cau
cus held on tho night ot February 29ib
(the night after the alleged caucus at the
Scheifly houso ) Who attended it? Lamb,
James, Gable, Van Dusen, Stout, BatUr
idge, Coakley and McGuire. Could those
havo boen got together In such t short time
if there was not a previous undemanding?
I think not? Tha same parties held an
other meeting on March 2d, when Bet
teridgo and Gablo woro sent to the Sclieifly
houso to attend a Democratic meeting Bette
ridge because ho was a Democrat and the lat
ter becausa he voted with tho Democrats at
tht previous organization of Council in
1801, to see if Holman, Hopkins and Amour
wero there. In thi- they wero disappointed,
for the three they wore looking for wero at
their respectivo homos. On the night of
the reorganization Amour was asked to go
and ooo Jumos and got the matter fixed up.
Ha refu-ed to do so. Hopkins llkewiio
refused when ha heard of It a few moments
later, which action was endorsed by Hol
man. The correspondent no doubt wishes
to raise Limb, James & Co., to the
heavens In the estimation of tho people. 1
think if tho people consider the matter
they will boo that because Lamb & Co.
could not have the ruling of the. party they
were prepared to glvo nearly all tho offices
to tho opposition, and then attempt to put
the blame on others. I would call tho
correspondent's attention to tbo fact that
Lntnb has beon drawing from tha public
teat the salary of troaturor of the School
Board for tw years past. It has been
asserted by Lamb that Holman, Amour
and Hopkins would not say what they
wanted. If thoy had been oalled to tho
eaueui he could have found out, thoy hav
iK agreed aud signed a papr naming tbo
pr a they would ycte for, viz: For
I r indent, F, 11 Hopklus; ssoroUry, F. O.
ltwiso or J. S. Williams ; treasurer, T." F.
Bradigan or ; solicitor, J. H.

Hugh or Gaorga Ay res; and tho old
police force to bo retnlued.

terest is beirg manl
fested in the ultimate
outcome of tho trial of
Leopold King, Max
Goldman and L Lau
terstein, all residents
of tbia town, which is
now boforo court at
Pottsville. Tho cases
arise out of thn closing
up of tho shoo business conducted under
L. Ring's namo some timo ago at tho cor
ner of Main and Oak streets. The place
wa9 first conducted by Max Goldman, who
was closed up. Then Ring, said to be
relativo of Goldman, took charge, the
latter acting as manager. Ring was sub
sequently closed up and tho creditors in
stitutod suit, charging that Ring and
Goldman, in conjunction with Lautorstoin
and others, conspired to defraud them
Goldman is now managing tho shoo busi'
ness at the corner of Centre and Market
streets, which Is conducted under the name
of L Goldman, a name believed to ropre
e-.nt Max Goldman's wife. Each sido has
about forty witnesses for the trial. Frank
MtDormott, tho telegraph operator, has
been subpoonaod for tho prosecution and it
is said he will produce tolegrams sent from
town prior to tho closing up that will make
damaging evidonco against the accused. A
fow days ago Max Goldman said, "It will
be n big caso but theso othor follows will
havo to pay as much as we will. Tho jjry
will 8-iy 'Tbey are all Jows, give all of
them the costs.' "
For tho New County.
Ex-Senator Morgan B. Williams, in an
interviow with a Plain Speaker man, said :
"I think tho now county scheme stands a
splondid chance better now than evor
before. Luzorno, with a population of
205,000 people,is too large and unwoildy for
Its own good."
It is whispered that Mr. Williams is to
be nominated again, for tho Sonate. One
thing is sura; tho next State Senator the
Lower End Democracy elects must bo first,
