1'OTTSVIt.t.K, Aug. G,
HE stoty of tho Into
Dcmocratlo oounty
convention and tho
causes of Ha victories
and defeats Is very toon
told. It was a ropro'
scntativo Democratic
convention In that It
contained the usual
number of farmers and country dolegates
generally, with a largo vote atthoir command,
who wcro easily led by tho more wlloy dolo
gates from tho strongholds Buch as Shenan
doah and tho mining townships Inti any
snaro that was laid to entrap them, aud con
sequently it was an easy matter for tho
Democracy north of the mountain to carry
away all of the big prizes.
It coutalucd also tho usual number of
boodlors who lor tho more pittance of their
expoiuH s to tho county teat and the good
tlmo given them at tho headquarters of tho
different candidates were ready to Boll out their
prcferencoi to tho first blddor who happened
aloug. And yet It contained a very resieot-
able and respectful body of men who wore
obedient to tho chairman in his ollbrts to
maintain order, and tho many visitors from
tho Republican side of the houso who flocked
to tho convention's session, morning, noon aud
night, oxpressed surpriso that there could be
gotten together such an orderly body of con-
dieting dements.
The story of tho judgeship contest was
repeatedly told in theso letters in advance
and it was simply that tho candidates lor the
other principal places wanted Judge Wold
mail to head tho ticket aud tho work of his
friends to noniiuato him was greatly light
ouod, in fact it was not hced.il at all. ,
N TUB CIttKP CONTEST.
After the withdrawal of Mr. Wadliuger
early Monday morning in a published in
terview In tho Journal, in whica that gou
tleman states that he was "out of tho fight,"
It bocame apparent at once that tho chief
contest of the day would bo decided by one
ballot and It so transpired. Leaving tho
reasons of Mr. Wadliuger to bo digested In
another letter, if It becomes necessary, it may
only bo remarked here that that purt of his
withdrawal card which reads "the only pur
pose for which I allowed the usoof my name,
iu connection with tho judicial nomination
having been accomplished there is no further
reason why I should remain a candidate" is a
llttlo thick aud will requlro another inter
view to explain it. The accomplished pur
pose of tho gentleman seems to bo a latent
one it is in fact enveloped in great mystery.
The Treasurershlp was shortly decided af
ter tho judgo fight was out of the way and
your townsman, George Folmer, Sr., carried
olT tho prize. Ills success can bo attributed
in part to a well organized campaign which
beg.iu In 1890, whe i he' was first a candidate
aud carried on with groat zeal over since, but
it can also be said to bo tho result of tho
lavish expenditure of monoy and tho luke
warm, slippery alliliatiou of Mr, Muldoou's
friends from his own towu. For Instance
while the faithful Muldoou had eight of tho
Shenandoah delegates U vote for him ho had
them for no othor purpose, and thoy were ab
solutely worthless to him to give thostreugth
he needed Thoy were controlled by Senator
Monaghan for Mulholl.ind aud used to make
that caudidate's nomination. The Senator's
sole Interest was 1 . Mulhollaud ho had no
use for Muldoon and while he could not
keep the delegates from voting fur Muldoou
he could keep them from combining or ar
ranging a successful couuter coup to tho Fol
mer Brennan-Toole-Mulholland combination.
1IEATEN AT HOME,
Mr. Hurry Muldoou was slaughtered in tho
houso of his home friends. He can exclaim
like Omar with his glance on the man who
is ambitious to iceed Congressman Eeilly
(if that olllclal ever lets go) el tu Jlrute.
It Is romarked on all sides that Muldoon is
boatou aud beaten at homo aud he is not dls
graced or smirched. lie made no threats
against the ticket and his fealty to his parly
Is co strong that ho will 'support the whole
ticket from top to bottom. How few there
are of tho nominated ones of whom tho samo
thing can be Slid? Of Mulhollaud I believe
it can be said that he would have been faithful
to the ticket had he not been nominated.
Of Mr. Kirk of course the same can bo said,
and of Leahy and of Martin; but here I must
stop for the want . of faith in the stalwart
fealty of any other . man nominated last
Monday in a contest; and this of course does
not include Judge Weldman, who was made
without a contest In the convention. What
a sorry thing It is to defeat such a man as
Muldoon and how little encouragement he
aud his truo friends have to be always for
the ticket, The Inhumanity of several men
in Shenandoah to tho man Muldoon Is mak
ing thousands mourn, whether couutless or
not it Is too early to say, but after the elec
tion the number of mourners will bo aug.
uieutod by many of tho men who went home
to Shenandoah from tho convention' as victors
with scalps In their belts, becauso
MULHOLLAND CANNOT WIN.
It was a direct insult to the Legislature
and especially to Governor I'attlson to nomi
nate fur Controller a man who has not the
qualifications for the position. Against Mr.
Mulholland, personally, nothing is uttered or
Is it necessary to do so, As the voters were
early educated to understand the Baker
ballot law they will soon come to recognizo
the meaning cf the bill creating a Controller
Mid the kind of individual who should go In
the office to organize Rni conduct It. No
one, oxcopt a few personal friends of tho
caudldato, will couteud for n moment that
Mr, Mulholland has tho business and edu
cational qualifications of such an ofllclal as
tho Controller should bo. Supposo when tho
now Governor Paulson was placed on tho
Democratio ticket for Controller In rhila.
delphia a man llko 'Squire MoMulleu of the
4th ward had boon named what an easy
valk over tho opposition would havo had ?
I say Oovernor I'attison hs been directly
Insulted by the nomination of Mr. Mul
holland, or olse his attainments aud fitness
for tho position of Controller wero only eqtml
at the timo of his election to thoso of Mut
holland's now.
Thoro will bo a movement made by business
men to beat Mulholland on business prlucl
plos with business methods. It will soon
tako unto Itself groat shape

The victory of Mr. Kirk over Mr. Iircnnan
was accomplished by hard and honest work
and it has loft no soreness against Mr. Kirk.
Hut tho Breuuan champions aro not overly
pleased with tho Folmorites and their alllos,
and thoy are not howling loudly for tho elec
tion of the whole ticket, and midst tho mut
terings of quiet discontent you can hoarn
belaylug-pin drop and it may bo caught up
and used as a weapon to smash the heads of
tho follows who rallied thoir delegates to
beat Brennau, but it will fall harmless on Mr.
Kirk, whose work is beyond reproach and
censuro.
Of the other contests,such as Commissioner,
Auditor and Poor Director, a volume could bo
written, but it would uanseato and tiro your
readorsto adminlstor an ovordoso of sour
gruel at ono time aud I will not attempt It.
Tho Doylo pooplo aro very well satisfied
with Johu's victory and they demonstrated
that oven with Mulholland from tho Bame

Editor Herald : In a summer sermon
last year Bov. Burba, of Plymouth, said that
tho Cithollo church, in defenso "from her en
emies can beoxcusod fortlio use of any means
without selection." And In truth this rgyoi
eud gentleman acted according to his views.
Aided by Joseph PaukztU, ho organized a
gang of "Kareivlal" (soldiers), consisting of
from ton to twelve mou, whoso aim it ia to
surprise, at night timo, peo,ilo wuo had the
misfortune to d.sploase theso pretenders to the
leadership among Lithuanians. Several
Poles havo boon beaten very seriously, not
only on tho stroet, but evou iu their
own houses. In No. 21 of the
Vtenybe Its editor encourages just
tho samo way of handling Lithuanians'
enemies in the old country. Theso Jesuits
have carriod on tholr christian work wilh.
honor for several years among tho Llthu lui
aus and Poles at Plymouth. At present they
are desirous to trausfer tho war to Shenan
doah. Belyiug upon tho testimony of a minor
girl, Bev. Abromaltls arrested a man In ail
probability gjlltlcss; and Vienybe announces
to the world In its last issue that "samo of tho
propagators of science" have made such a
conspiracy on tho life of Bev. Abromaitis. In
my opinion thoro are two inabilities : Either
our Jesuit", tftir tho method of the European
police, iutend to provoke a conspiracy of
agents provocateur), in order to bo ouabled
to attack pooplo who are detested
by our Jesuits; or tho people being
taught from tho pulpit and during coufession
"to shake off the enemies of tho church,"
having well comprehended tho christian
teachings of our Jesuits, began to use tho
proposed means against their own teachers,
who skin them severely. Be it as it Is ; but
Kiniyie says, "If wo should not destroy this
detestable seed of anarchy at present, when it
begins to grow among us, after a while all cf
us will be In danger. Several scoundrels,
when their horns grow, will be desirous to be
come dictators among us." Well, We see since
a long timo this seed of anarchy being sown,
and even tho fruits ripened by the teachings
of Vievybe rupportors, who imagine already
to be tho dictators of Lithuanians. There
fore we will be very glad If these anarchists
of Plymouth (whoso agents, or they in per
son, visit our towu every week) will stop to
organize bauds of highwaymeu and to make
blush all Lithuania by the sordiduess of their
writings aud by dirtying iuuoceut people.

Hpeclal Heuald Correspondence.
ABLY In 1861 William
Nowby, of Whlto
county, Ills., aged 3D,
enlisted iu tho For
tieth Infantry of that
state. Iu 18C5 "Blck
ety Dan" Benton, aged
20, left his mother's
hoino In Tcnnrssco as a
vagabond. On April 0,
18(12, Private William Nowby was shot
down at Shlloh, and on tho Tuesday
following IiIh corpse, ns his comrades then
believed, was conveyed to thu soldier's Inst
bivounc. At the current session of tho
federul court ut Spriuglleld, Ills., nn old
wreck of Immunity nut In tho prisoner's
dock, nnd Illinois and Tennessee had to
decido whether ho was "Illckety Dan" or
Bill Ncwby.
Nothing should lie easier nppnrently, for
"Rickety Dan," ns his liicknnmo implies,
was a cripple from birth, while Hill Nowby
when ho enlisted wns a stnlwnrt of 5 feet 10
nnd weighed 180 pounds. Tho former lintl
barely sense enough to boinoruUy nccouftt
nble, whilo the latter wns a mnn of nverngo
sense, nnd while the soldier is described
ns n man with florid complexion nnd me
dium hnir tho outcast was rather dark.
Furthermore, Itill Newby's only defect was
n hesitancy in his speech, while "Rickety
Dan" Benton wns, so to speak, nil defect.
Tlfat any one with half uu eye could
"mix those babies up" would neem ton dis
tant reader Incredible, yet some 40 toll,
lank and very honest Tennesscenns swore
positively that they know Illckety Dan
from Infnnoy to middle life nnd that the
prisoner at the bar vas certiilnly ho and nono
other, and some 150 good men aud women
of Whlto county, Ills., swore just as posi
tively thnt they knew Bill Nowby from In
fancy and that tho prisoner was certainly
ho. Verily "Tho Lost Heir" is outdone,
and tho Tichborne clnimant is not In it for
comparison.
Among the witnesses nro Newby's own
mother and wife, his elder brother, his
aunt, tho captain of his company nnd a
grand old veteran who Bwears he was with
him in Andersouvllle prison. To the point-
TOE CLAIMANT,
e'd question, "How could wounds in the
head and leg so completely transform a
stalwart man as to make him tho double of
'Rickety Dnnf" these veterans answered:
"The how we don't know ask the doctors.
We do know that the wounds have done it."
To this there Is one important exception.
wuuum EMiyuer oi waits county saw isew
by while the process was going ou and told
of it in court with a simple pathos that
tnnueu every hearer and brought tears. to
eyes long unused to, weeping. After de
scribing the man whom he saWIn Ander
souvllle crawling on hands and knees to
the water he pointed at the prisoner and
said:
'There sits the man whom I Baw that
day in Andersouvllle. We knew him by
me name oi urazy jacK." i cannot be
mistaken. I could tell him anywhere on
earth." Nevertheless, the jury decided
that the claimant Is "Rickety Dan" and
not William Newby.
On the other hand, a second brother nnd a
sister of Bill Newby think this Is not the
man. Two women who tramped with Dan
Benton swore that this man is Dan. and one
of them produced her bon as his, and the re
semblance is marked. The defense admit
all the charges against their client since
1803 and say that in his dazed condition ho
wandered from (the far south to Tennessee,
was there mistaken for "Rickety Dan." as-
sumeil the name and did all the things
charged.
If "Rickety Dan" were a lost heir, a no
bleman's child stolen by cvnsles. or anv
other of the stock characters of the Btage
and romance, his doings could not have
been traced with more minute detail.
United States detectives have been for two
years getting up his history. He mi born,
in 1845, and though apparently simple pos
sesses a deal of low cunuing. Early In life
ne uegan to trade on ins innrmlty, but later
liecarae a criminal nnd in 16S7 was sent to
the Tennessee penitentiary. In 1889 he
came out and has since wandered from
poorhouse to poorbouse all over the west.
They have reoords of his life In 05 poor
houses. Finally he reached White oounty,
and being mistaken for Dill Newby at

Thedefense olaimed that William Newby
of Company U, Fortieth Illinois infantry,
washorrlbly wounded and taken prisoner at
Shlloh; that when turned loose from An
dereonvllle ho wandered to Tennessee, was
mUtakan for Dan Benton, as aforesaid, and
wandering on reached White county In 188L
They mIso adduced testimony that the corpse
of one Hiram Morris was mistaken for that
of Nowby and burled as such at Shlloh.
Iu 1884 the widow of Bill Newby applied
for and obtained a pension of (8 per month
for herself and $1 per mouth for each of her
tlx children till they Bhould reach the ace
of 18. When "Rickety Dan" turned uo

Tho millennium is hero I Tho managers
of tho Shenandoah aud Pottsvlllo baso ball
clubs have conio together and havo agreed to
decido the superiority of tho rcspoctivo clubs
at Lakeside ou August Ifith.
Let the eaglo scream, for Shenandoah is to
havo an opportunity to show tho champions
of tho county scat that they can play ball.
Ever slnco tho present baso ball manage
ment has been in existenco It has tried every
means to arrange a gamo with tlio Pottsvlllo
club, but tho latter has shrowdly wriggled
out of every overturo and proclaimed to tho
peoplo that tho failure to socuro tho gamo has
been duo to tho timidity of tho Sheuaudoah
team, Tho Interest iu the morits of tho re
spective clubs has become so great that oven
peoplo who know nothing of tho gamo and
raroly see ono playod havo been urging tho
Shenandoah management to offer tho Potts
vlllo club anything uud everything to play a
gamo ; and thero is not the slightest doubt
that tho contest will draw thousands of peo
plo from all parts of tho county. It has becu
frequently stated duriug tho past weeks that
no two clubs outside of tho Boston and Phil
adelphia! could draw a crojvd to anyplaco In
Schuylkill county than tho Shenandoah and
Pottsvlllo clubs.
It will be tho greatest card In the history
of Schuylkill county base ball and both teams
will undoubtedly go upon the diamond
strongor than over before, and tho Lakeside
grounds will be packed with professional mon,
tradesmen, miners and other admirers of the
respective teams, who will send roars of en
thusiasm skyward during the gamo.
Manager Bradigan went to Pottsvlllo to day
to havo agreements for the game drawn up
and signed iu accordanco with preliminary
arrangements made by letter.
Although this gamo will bo a great card It
will not bo tho only feature of August 15th at
Lakeside. It Is on this day that the Grant
Band will hold its musicilo at the resort and
the multitude will havo tho additional
pleasure of tho baud's programme.
Ono week from next Tuosday will bring on
the great battlo between tho giants of Potts
vllleand Shenandoah, and may tho best
team win.
