JOHN RYON WILL
BE A CANDIDATE
HE
WILL RUN AS AN INDE
PENDENT CANDIDATE.
PETITIONS ARE CIRCULATED TO
Seoure a Percentage of Votes
That Will Make His Candidacy
Legal Some of Thorn in
Town.
fjfj T IS now settled that
Hon. John "W. Byon
will be an independ
ent candidate for
Judge. ' It is under
stood from a Tollable
source that he ha?
consented to step into
tho arena and make a fight against Judge
Pershing. In confirmation of this roport
petitions ijr a percontago of votei to onable
the ticket to be made were received in
town last night and several prominent
Democrats went to work at once to secure
the signatures required. They have been
vory successful thus lar and a sufficient
number of names will be secured without
trouble.
A well known Democrat (aid last night
that when the petitions are filed it will be
found that Kyon has tho bucking of many
of the most influential Democrats in tho
county and the number will exceed
figure that few have any idea of. "John
Byon was entitled to that nomination',"
said the informant, "and he will show It in
an independent canvass. There are many
Democrats who feel as I speak, but for
certain good reaons they will keep their
mouths cloBcd and do the work with their
ballots on election day. Those who thought
the shelving of Byon in the convention
would end the matter wore mistaken, and
they will find it out on election day."
Somo time since the Herald publishod
a rumor, coming from its Fotlsville corres
pondent, to the effect that Hon. Charles N
Brumm, the Republican candidate for
Congress, would decline to run for the
office. The rumor is alive again, bqt comes
from another source "We are loath to
believe that Mr, Brumm has any such
intentions, but where there is so much
smoke there must be fire. So far t
know there is no trouble in the Bepublican
ranks aud if Mr. Brumm contemplates
withdrawing it is not because oi any
trouble in the party. All differences have
been considered buried, yet some attribute
the rumor to the iact that Brumm fears that
the friends of Hon. S. A. Loach, the Be-
publican candidate for the Legislature in
the Fourth district, may try to knife him
In the coming election and elect Losch to
show that the latter is a bigger man than
Brumm.
This story has been told before, but those
who tell it and pretend to believe it is true, !
overlook the fact that two could play at the
knife game and that it would be a losing
contest for both. We don't take any stock
In the story and we believe that the
hatchet will remain buried. Such stories
are frequently concocted by the Demo
crats with the hope of creatiog strife In
the Bepublican ranks.

THE MATTER TO BE INVESTIGATED
Lieutenant of the O. & I.

Learn if Company Stores
Are in Existence.

an unusual stir in the!
town. Indeed, soma j
people are very much I
-1
concerned over the
article. Yosterday Lieutenant Daniels, of
the Coal and Iron police force, notified the
Herald that he, had been instructed to
investigate the .report concerning the
stores and he desired all iniormation on the
subject. Mr. Daniels has received nstur
ance that he will be given all the informa
lion the Herald can glran, but it is now
the duty of the store owners who have
been complaining to step foreward with
their proofs.
Mr. Daniels says the Philadelphia and
Beading Company will not tolerate any
. .
comP,y VA .
"We believed this,
and If we bad not we would not have taken
up tbo cause of tho complaining store
people as we have.
Since the publication of Saturday's
article another storekeeper has come fore
ward with the statement that he has lost
two customers by reason of these abortioned
institutions. Both were gord-Vaying
customers, he said. In one case, a woman
called at his store and settled her account,
stating that sho would deal at another
place in the future.
'Have I given you any cause to make
the change 7" the grocer asked.
No, sir j you have always treated me
right, but my husbind has a good job now
aud we think it best to deal at the other
placo."
In the other case the wife also called to
settle her account aad say that sho intended
to transfer her custom to one of the stores
complained of.
"If you go there," said the! storekeeper,
"you will pay more for your goods than
you pay now."
I know that," said the woman, "but a
good job now-a-days is a good job and my
husband wants to try and hold it."
.
A storekeeper yesterday banded me a
draft of an addre s which was prepared
somo time ago for presentation to the
Philadelphia and Beading .Company.
For some unknown reason it was never
presented. It reads as follows :
'Knowing tbo position the P. & K. C. & I. Co,
has always taken regarding company stores,
and feeling gratetul toward tue company lor
doing so, we deom It our duty to you, as well as
ourselves, to Inform you of a number of little
tr dngs that bave come to our notice In the past
year, namely : stores of the sons ot out and
Inside foremen, as well as district superintend
ents, with which we are messed with four or
more, wo reel mat n is on injustice mai men
are compelled, in an Indirect way, to trade at
any of the stores mentioned beloW, particularly
at this time, while trade Is so very depressing.
Of course It Is natural to suppose that all ot
the foremen will deny using their Influence In
tho Interest of their brothers and sons, but It
you could spare the time to Inquire as to what
positions the men hold who ao traae we feel
positive you would discover that the best to bo
had in and about your several collieries are
occupied by men of families who trade at the
several stores mentioned. Trusting you will
feel enough Interest to look Into this matter.
wo remain, yours very truly."
-nt in.i th TTBRAI.D has set the ball
rnlllnff and officials of the P. & B. C. & I.
P1i fctftiA thflV ATA authorised to investigate
th. .m svstam. It is the dutv of the store
keepers complainingvto take the platform
and bave their little say. The Ujerald is
niln0.tn undertake anv cause which it
insiders rieht. but it has great faith in the
old adage, "The Lord helps those who help
themselves." Now, gentlemen, step for
ward. If the battle is won you will reap
the fruits.
As far as the Herald is concerned, it
will hold the position it took in' the start.
Tho system complained is not fair. It
tends to creato a monopoly; it debars the
men who work in the mines of the right to
mako purcbasos where they please and
ronders them liable t extortion. At the
same time it works an injustice to other
pooplo, by depriving them of tho oppor
tunity to compete. Of course, If tho
Beading company countenances this store
system, the fight should be kept up until
tho company performs its duty to its env
nloves and the D60t)10.
