SOME MISTAKES POINTED OUT Carter Mado a Good Looking Chairman But Ho Was Not "In It" for Practical Work. Hold's Contribution. Herald was intended to convey to the public mind tho Impression that the attempt to purify politics as made by tho recent uational management of tho Republican iarty was a complete failuro. " And I hero assert that it was a lailuro. It was like the purified walor that Is used at the collieries It destroyed the linings of the Republican boilers and they went up undor slight pressure. A lack of political work, n lack of common sense was what subjected tho party to the tornado. Why just think! Hero were tho Democrats drumming Into tho heads of the worklugiiicn of tho country tho argument that tho Republican party was rosponsiblo for tho affairs at Homestead, and in tho faco of this argument tho Republican national man agemcnt allowed tho Democratic assertions that Frick and Carncgio had contributed to tho Republican campaign fund to pass by without notice That was a mistake ! If it is truo that the Pricks and Carnegics did contributo to tho National Republican campaign fund the committeo was foolish in accepting It. If such contributions wero not made, then tho national committeo neglected Its duty when it failed to so iuform the masses who must havo boeu influenced by the report. I liko tho sentiment of Hon. James S. Clarksou when ho says that in tho day of new energy tho Republican party will draw its lino openly and boldly and freo itself alike from the Carnegics, Fricks and others who betrayed protection to gain cheat labor, and from all others wearing its name for purposes of tlioir own gain. Let us hear no more about purifying poli tics. The present system of purification is a failuro. It destroys our boilers and loaves us high and dry without a presidency, a Senate, or a Congress. Mr, Carter made a good looking chairman, as a payor I have just laid down remarks, and he looks so much liko tho typical "Undo Sam" that ono would think the peoplo would bo willing to flock to his standard for almost solely that reason. Mr. Cartor is generous and affable, but ho is a failure as a national chairman. His politics aro not practical. The peoplo would no doubt like to sco tho politics of tho country purified, but that they first want to stand by tho party that 6ecms to hold out the greatest inducements in dollars and cents was demonstrated last Tuesday. It would tako n thousand years to purify Tammany Hall, but tho people took its word and wo aro in tho soup. And there was another millstone, Whitelaw Held. Egad I it will bo a long time beforo tho Republican party will look for a candl datoin the THbnnt building again. Tho ghost of Horace Qrceloy seemed to havo bold of his coat tail and ho couldn't run a little bit. True ho mado a magnanimous contribu tion to tho campaign iund, $70,000 1 bollevo ; but sovcral days beforo the election his hows paper put in a bill of $70,000 to the Republi can National Committeo, which, by tho way, very much rcsemblos tho loyalty of ono of tho nowspapflrs in this county. Contrast this $70,000 transaction with Democratic methods. Last year the Demo emtio National Committeo was in debt to tho extent of over $80,000. This was suddenly wipe! out. How, or by whom, is not stated directly; but some of tho most prtmincnt and reliable Democratic papers say that u look at tho stub book of Calvin S. Ilrico would solvo tho problem. The millionaires who surrounded Chair man Carter this year were not practical men and, ns I said yesterday, tho method in which the late campaign wits couduoted for the Republican party made me slok.

A great clearing out of campaign Illustra tions Is now going on at this office. Be lore tho election no made arrangements to vio with our most enterprising contemporaries in announcing tho lo-clcctiou of President Harrison and had an immense eaglo fattened and trained to shout the glad notes of victory over Qrover Clovoland and Free Trade. Ho was a handsomo bird and wo pinned great faith on his ability to convey the tidings of victory. His Eagleship was in oxcellent trim at about eight o'clock Tuesday night. We thought we had him safely cooped and that he was boyond all danger, but during the night a tiger got into his coop. The con dition in which we found tho bird Wednes day morning is ably Illustrated by our artist no pavingTthis pall. Indications I'ulnt to u Postponement Until Spring. Tliero is every reason to bellevo that the predictions mado by tho Hekai.ii sonio time ago concerning tho paving of streets will ho fulfilled. Nothing hog been done thus far and tho streets uro rapidly hardening, so that within a few days wo may expect an olllcial announcement that no paving will be dono until next spring. It was expected that the work of reducing Main street to grade would at least bo accomplished this fall, but tho arrival of genuine winter weather will no doubt postpono that, too. until tho flowers bloom again. Tho reducing of tho street to grade was to havo commenced last Monday. It is understood that thero is a sentiment of postponing all the work. "Underground."

BUSINESS PRINCIPLES ONLY Ashland and Centralia to be Conneotod by an Electric Rail road Tho Future of Elec tricity, &o. N absurd rumor was current on our streets yesterday that tho Schuylkill Traction Company had discharg ed all the conductors and motor-men who were Republicans and filled their places with Democrats. What probably gave rise to this story was that a crew was given the usual two-weeks suspension for being late, and an other crew was put on half time, owing to the taking off of a car. Tho Traction Compauy ii composed of gentlomen who are running tho road on strictly business principles, and havo no time to monkey with politics. As long ns employes perform tlioir duties they will bo retained, no matter what thoir politics arc. OBE'S OBSERVATIONS. YVIint Ho Sees anil Hears During Ills Truvl. Tho newspaper men of Scranton will pay a visit to tho Schuylkill coal regions next Sunday as tho guests of tho Philadelphia & Reading Railroad Company. Tho party, in eluding ladios, will number about 123. They will bo accompanied by a full orchestra. The departure from Scranton will bo mado at 8 a. ni. via tho New Jersoy Central to White Uavon, and over tho Lehigh Railroad to llazleton, Delano, Mahanoy City, Shenan doah, Mt. Carmel and Shamokin. Dinner will bo served at tho latter place. The homeward journoy will bo over tho Phila dclphia and Reading Railroad via Mahanoy Plane, Pottsvillo and Mauch Chunk. It is reported that when Mr. M. S. Rigg resigns tho management of the Shenandoah Beef Company's establish ment to go to Denver, Missrs.-W: Jr'Kowv thorproserrt- assistant manager, and Assistant Postmaster Deiigler will amumo tho management of the place. P. J. Ferguson is in five hats on the result of tho election. Another charter for an olectric road has been issued. Tho parties who are named as Incorporators are Joseph F. llailoy, C. H. Cofrode, F. E. Bailey and others. The road will pass through Locust Dale to Centralia, connecting with tho ono ut Ashland. In connection with olectric matters it will only be a question of timo when tho farmers will be "in it." Tho road wagons and tho short-lived ton-buEKies and carriages of tho farmer cost him a very pretty penny in tho : course of a year, or a term of years, and they represent a servico which tho electric railroad cars largely abolish. But against this saving must of course bo set tho cost on tho railroad, ' tho electric power Btatlon, tho rent of olectric J wagons, and oporating expenses. What, would bo tho amount 1 An accurate estimate cannot of courso bo mado hero, because con ditions differ so widely in diflerent sections of tho country ; but as close a calculation as wo can mako in advauco, founded on tho cost of tho electric railroads already in operation, warrants us in Baying that probably 00 per cent, of tho roadways in tho United States could be equipped with tho necessary track, polw and wires at tho cost of $3,500 per niilo. In a district 10 miles square tho snrfaco that could bo served from a single central power station thero would be, in the larger part of tho Union, about 100 .miles of rail way. Then the total ooetof track for a dis trict 10 miles squaro would ho $350,000. This represents a capitalization of only $5 to the acre, and an annual Interest charge of only 30 cents per aero. With a central power station largo enough to operate all tho wagons or airs that would bo called into uso at ono time in the district, tho capitalisation need not bo more than $10 per acre. This would moan an annual Interest charge of $00 for each 100 acres of laud. It must bo conceded that this doos not seem like a very heavy tax when we consider the nature of tho service reuderod available, tho great saving in the cost and maintenance of horses and wagons, the enormous economy of time, and tho greatly enhanced value of improved farm lands. If the Interest charge amounted to $100 per year, and, the fanners were themselves chiefly the stockholders of the electric companies, It would still repre sent an economy. Obe.
