PARTICULARLY IN THE SEC OND AND FOURTH WARDS. THE FIGHT AGAINST FINNEY FAILS Hit Supporters Carry tho Second Ward by Two to One Tho Third Ward Ilattlo Dwindled to a One-Sided Allalr. Close X'lglit 111 tho Fourth ' OLITIC3 waxed warm in town Saturday afternoon among the Republicans and tho econos about the polls woroof allvoly charac ter. Tho primaries in the Second and Fourth wards wore particu larly Interesting. The Fourth ward battle had a most pecu liar result. The Dght was a more bitter ono than in tho Socond and the old war borso, lion. M. P. Fowler, was beaten by a few votes. Mr. Fowler was selected for tho election board, but upon being taunted with tho boast that ho was to bo defeated in his fight for County Delegate ho secured a substitute for his place on the board and pulled off his coat to mako votes lie made an excellent stand and there Is a feeling of sincore rcgrot among many who did not voto lor him tb.it he failed to rout his opponents. Tho Tosh-Morgan combination carried tho Third ward with flying colors. Sur prises were cxpectod and watched for, but thoy failed to matorializj. A few votes wero cast for J. II. Pomeroy, E:q., who made a personal fight during tho week for election as a Porshing delegate, but Mr. Pomeroy statos that the votes were cast by peoplo who failed to loam that ho withdrew" from the fight Fr.day evening. 'Squire T. T. Williams and Oouncilmon Limb and Jamos seemed more interested in ho Second ward light than thoy were in that in theirown ward and thoy spect con' sidorablo timo near tho Second ward poll ng place Councilman Limb was to much in' torested in it ho failed to put in an appear ance at the Third ward poll and his voto was not recorded thoro. In tho Second ward a dosporate fight was made against the FinneyBaird ticket by tho Morgan-Broughall combination, but it failed miserably. Tho result was a big sur priso to the latter combination and its Third ward friends. Therowas no opposi tion n tho First ward. Tho rosulls of tho primaries, as shown by the returns woro as follows : FIUST WABD. County Dolegates Adam Mort, John Hesser. Alternates David O. Hughes, Uarry Moyor.

The voters of tho Third ward who had their oyos and oars open must havo known that during tho olection Saturday D. J. Williams was ono of tho most loyal sup porters David Morgan had and no reference to tho opposition could bo construed as a reflection upon Mr. Williams. 'Squire Dengler wns at the Socond ward poll on Saturday and expressed himself in unmistakable terms against tho continued hostilities against ono or two mon because tho Morgan peoplo failed to get tho post office thrco years ago. Thoro aro more intMligont people in the Second ward of tho same belief, as shown by tho returns. Ono of the numerous falso color dovlces resorted to In tho fi.?ht to defeat Finnoy Saturday was a st-ry that Finnoy had at tempted to got T. J. Broughall. to run for SchoM Director at the last spring 1 lection 60 he could bo sacrificed for odo of Finney's favorites. Jus, before tho polls closed Fin ney declared publicly, In the presence of Broughall, W. J. Morgan and others that before the spring election, when Finnoy suggested that Broughall be a candidate, John W. Morgun declared he would not vote for him. Como homo, Henry, como home. To-morrow tho Republicans will name a winning ticket. Lot harmony begin with a big n. John I. Mathins, who is a candidalo for dologato to the National Convention, nevor gets discouraged. Ho has boon knocked out oltenor than any man wo know of, yet ho comes up to the scratch, smilingly overy time, 'or another bout. That's what wo call truo Republicanism. Whatever bad feeling oxisted among the Republicans on Saturday it should now be buried out of sight. Let the party be a united ono this year. J. Harry James, E'q , is among tho latest candidates for District Attorney. Scott, of Frackville, candidate for National Delegate, has mado a very close canvasB.

Secretary of Stato Harrity will shortly issiio cards of instruction explaining the Baker ballot law to voters and election officers The instructions will be plain and useful and will begin by slating that the object of the new law Is secrecy. The right of the Inspectors to challenge voters remains. No one can p iss the guard rail if he is challenged or his name is not on tho ballot check-list, until ho proves his right to vote. No ono can bo given a ballot until he has passed tho guard rail. Ballots must bo folded before they aro given out, so that ouly tho official indorsement can be seen. No ballot should be given to a votor who desires help In marking it until tho judge has allowod such help to bo given. A voter do irlng such help must declare specifically that he cannot road, or is so physically dis abled that ho cannot mark his ballot. The voter must choose bis own helper. Election officers are responsible for the safe keeping of all the ballots, whether used at the olection or not. No votor can bo allowed to take any ballot out of the in closed space, whether he has marked it or not. If bo attempts to do so he should be arrested for an attempted violation of tho act. Tbo card will also give detailed instruc tions to officers as to the maunor of con ducting elections.

HE COMPLAINS OF A FREEZE OUT One or Muny Peculiar Cimcs Tlmt Arie I'rom the Ornntlllf: of Saloon I.lri-naeft. The Landlord Puts on tho Turin' mill tin- Tenant .Must IJothoItest. ONSIDERABLE dis cussion has boon going on since the last term of tho license court and if all thut has been said could bo re duced to space In the Ukrals the public would havo some very interesting r 0 a ding matter. Ono of the latest cases under discussion is that oi a Polo ro3idlng on South Main streot. Ho complains that ho applied for a llconso for the building at tho southeast corner of Main and Poplar streets .with the understanding that he was to havo the use of the wholo building. Tho place was considered an excollont stand becauso of tho room on tho top floor used for public and society meet ings, no says that when he went to take possession of the building,after socuringtho licenEO, tho understanding of tho landlord did conform to his views. Tho landlord said he could not havo tha whole building and would have to be content with the lower portion. Another condition of possession which the landlord insisted upon was an incroase of rent from 570 to 8100 per month, The first condition was a hard knock, but the second dazzled him, The Polo thinks a gamo of freezo out is being played on him so that Paul Samma, who moved from town to Plymouth a few months ago, can got tho place; but as the Polo secured the license in his own name he thinks ho will be ablo to bring about torms satisfactory to himself. A well known gentloman, in discussing the caso, said that the license business is being abused. Rents have been raised to gill-edged figures by landlords whoso places havo boen licensed and on the average the rents are equsl to those charged for some of tbo best places in Philadelphia and Now York. Annthor feature that seems an abuse of tho license system is the readiness with which licenses have been granted to parties who applied for them simply to glvo their properties a selling price on tho market, whilo cripples, old pooplo and widows with small propertios to protect wore refused. Tho fact that many worthy poopla wore thus handicapped has aroused a strong sontimont among tho peoplo In general and there is no doubt that views on tho subject will be given to tho public more fully in tho near future. It is argued that it is unjust that needy and law abiding peoplo should bo donled licenses upon bona fide applications and unquestionable bonds, when new licenses aro granted tho big fish right and left. It certainly looks as if the English, Welsh and American pooplo are being scrutinized to an extent that jclves it' an appearance i)t unjust discrimination. If the three judges of the Pottsville court would pay our town a visit they would certainly accept this conclusion. Murlamle Clurko Company To-Night. On Wednesday and Thursday evenings last the Marlande Clarke company appeared at Kaior's opera bouse in Silver King and Dr. Jokyl and Mr. Hyde. Tho company Is composed of a lot ol actors who travel solely on tholr morit as legitimate perform ers. They carry no specialists, but every ono Is strong in his or her part. The star, Marland Clarke, is a hard worker, and at onco makes a hit with his audience that wins for him applause all through, while his people, following him closely, are al ways popular. Ed. A.

Dony, of Scranton, sec- rotary of tho Amorican Sabbath Union, spent Sunday in town in tho interests of Sabbath observance. In tho morning ho preached in the Presbyterin church and in tho evoning in tho Methodist Episcopal church. He Is a man of pleasing address and is very enthusiastic in his work and euccoeded In inspiring bis audiences which not only listened attentively to his dis courses but contributed genorously to his society. Ho called attention to tho fact that God intondod tho Sabbath to bo a blessing a dolight to man and to make it tho means of dispensing thoso heavenly in fluences which aro necessary to his highest welfare. Tho necessity of preserving it to tho working peoplo as a dy of rest and worship cannot bo over-estimated. The great majority of the pooplo aro slaves through the woek and if something is not done to protpct tho Sabbath they will be come slaves on Sunday too. Tne demand for Sunday trains and open exhibitions on Sunday is mado not by tho laboring classes for their own benefit, but by soulless cor porations and wealthy individuals in order to incronse 'heir own wealth. Tho opening; on Sunday of tho Columbian Exhibition at Chicago next year would, it accomplished, Btriko a deadly blow at the laboring classes, from which they would never recover. It would moan the downfall of the christian Sabbath and the enforced labor on Sunday of multitudes who will desiro to rest. Tho question of opening it on Sunday not only affects thoso who want to visit it, but those who havo to conduct it. Rev. Wra. Powick followed in the evening with u bricl account of his experiences concerning Sabbath desocration in France and the domoralizntlon resulting from the opening of the Paris Exposition on Sunday, and attributed the rocent anarchistic plots ii Paris to the fact that France is practically without a Sabbath. At the close of each service a voto was taken on tbo question of ondorsing tho polition of tho W. C. T. U. to Congress to forbid the opening on Sun day of any exhibition for which public moneys are appropriated. Tho vote was unanimous and tbo petition will be for warded to Congross at onco.
