POTT3VILLE LETTER.
Interesting J'olltleal Contribution by Our
Kt'gular Correspondent.
Spesial Correspondence to the Herald.
PoTTSVILLSJ, Oct. 20. The campaign on
tho part of the Republican party was fairly ,
opened last night by a grand parade of the '
clubs, equipped with new uniforms and torch
lights and headed by the Third Brigade
Band. All along tho route of tho procession
tbo enthusiasm, which started at tho Central
Club house, was kept up by cheoring and flro
works and especially on Centro street, whero
tho greatest throngs had aemblcd, was tho
pyrotechnic display the finest. Altogether tho
demonstration was very creditablo nnd the
heads of tho several organizations which par
ticipated aro entitled to great praise, After
tho parado a meeting was organized at Rob
bins' hall which was addressed by Gcorgo
Geibcr, Esq,, and Hon. John T. Shocncr.
Political matters will bo lively from now
out you may depend, and that tho Republi
cans will take their Bharo of tho glory and
reap their proportion of the fruits you may
wager.
A NON-PARTISAN JUDICIARY.
Meanwhilo thero is great activity mani
fested by all parties in nil parts of thocounty.
Meetings are nightly held and the lawyers
have given up all notion of attending to
their clients for tho less lucrative business of
stump oratory. But by far tho most effective
work is being douo by individual canvassing
Tho Pershing people aro confining them.
selves to a curb stone campaign here, while
their speechmakers aro whooping it up in tho
country districts. Both these on the stump
and tho curbstone are nuking a hullabaloo
over what they call a non-partisan judiciary,
It is only when Judge, Porshing is running
that his managers get up a howl about an al
leged non-partisan judiciary and nover have
they been known to mention this compound'
catch-campaign canard at any other timo.
Now I have looked carefully over the plat
forms of both Republican and Democratic
conventions which named the two county
tickets, and I claim to bo anything else but
stupid, and I fail to find a single word on tho
subject which these goody-goody champions
of tho twenty -yoar incumbent on the bench
calls a non-partisan judiciary.
A PRONOUNCED PARTISAN.
It is tho leriost essence of rot to mako this
claim in behalf of a man who is such a
pronounced partisan, and has been all his
life, not that tho charge is made by me or
any one who favors tho election of tho Re-
publican nominee that ho is partisan in his
judicial rapacity, but it should be distinctly
understood that ho was brought horo as a
Democrat, endeavored to get a Democratic
nomination in 1672, tried It again in 1882,
nnd this year succcoded,after tho Republicans
had seen fit to servo notice on him that they
had another man who they preferred for u
position which had been held for twenty
years by a judge elected mainly with their
aid and a man who could be just as mucli a
non-partisan judge as any one any other party
could name, and especially tho man who was
afterwards nominated in a partisan conven
tion.
It might bo also mentioned that in 1S75
Judge Pershing had tho partisan nomiuatipn
for Governor of tbo Democratic convention
which assembled at Brio. And ho placed
himself squarely on that convention's par
tisan platform. AH this while he was sitting
on tho bench in this county as president
judge.
Let us hear no moro nonsense about a non
partisan judiciary. N.

HE public schoolB of

Discovery of America
this morning In a most
pleasing and interest
ing manner. There was a street parade and
indoor and outdoor exercises as prescribed by
tho programmo issued by the executive com
mittee of tho Columbian Public School
Celebration Committee. Forty-four schools,
embracing upwards of 2,200 pupils took part
in tho celebration and entered into tho work
with a spirit that brought excellent results.
Promptly at 0 o'clock all tho schools were
in their respective quarters and commenced
their exercises. Each school had a pro
gramme as prescribed by tho national
committco, each school had the national flag
at hand, and almost every pupil carried a
small Hag. Tho pupils felt their responsi
bility in tho celebration.
The programmo of the High school was
especially interesting. Thero were three
essays, "Columbus" by John W.Campbell;
"Isabella" by Miss Mary M. Pomeroyjand
a third, " Growth of our Country " by Henry
Czyzewski. Thero wero also two declama
tions, "Christophor C." by Miss Fanny
Davios, and "A Personal Reminiscence of
Columbus" by William James. Bernard J.
Durkin and Misses Alice Leho and Daisy
Hoss read Irving's Description of Columbus,
First Voyage. Added to this programmo
wore two songs by tho school, "Song of
Columbus Day" and "Star Spangled Banner."
Upon tho conclusion of tho indoor exor
cises and at 10:15 a. m. the drum corps made
up of pupils of the schools marched down
Main street to tho headquarters of Watkin
Waters Post, No. 1 10, G. A. R. Thero tho
veterans wcro met and headed by tho drum
corps they marched up to tbo comer of Liue
and Main streets to form for tho parado.
Tho lino moved at 10;30 o'clock in tho fol
lowing order:

of tho High school building for the exorcises.
The pupils wero arranged in classes inside
and outside tho railing in front of the
building. Upon a signal all tho pupils joined
In singing "Boforo all Lands." Then the
G. A. R. vetorans stepped to tho front and
pulled the. flag to tho top of the staff. As tho
flag reached the top of tho stair the veterans
led tho assemblage in "Three Cheers for
' Old Glory. " Following this was the saluto
to tho flag by tho schools. The salute era-
braced ten motions, the last being the mint
ing of the indox flngor of the right hand to
tho unfurled flag, and the words in chorus
"Ono flag." All tho schools then joined in
singing "Tho Red, White and Blue." The
song " Columbia Hail " followed and then
Guy Kelper, a pupil of tho High Bchool,
delivered an address on "The Meaning of
tho Four Centurios." Tho song of Columbus
Day was given by tho High school. Follow
ing this was tho dollvery, of the ode, " Colum

the singing; of "America," which closed the
exeroises.
