Some Talc of Oldni Times Unfolded.
Special 1IKHAI.1I correspondence.
Pottsvilmc, Feb.!). Tho indignation ovor
the printing scandal has not subsided. Tho
puhlie, especially of this place, seems to be
thoroughly aroused by tho ixpoauro. It is
tho all-absorbing topic in this town and none
seem to bo more, aroused or seen to give mora
time to tho condemnation of tho affair than
tho business people.
Much sympathy Is expressed for Harry
James and Barron aud llartman, of Ashland,
tho proprietors of tho ABhland Local aud
Record, 'I hoy formid tho Ashland syndicate
and do not deny that they authorized Zerhey,
of the llepublicnn, representing the I'ottsvllle
syndicate, to go beforo tho County Commis
sioners and lepresent them in tho matter, hut
thoy had no idea that tuclia bold demand
would be nude.
I havo it from a good source that Harry
James is as hot as a red hot coal over tho ex
posure and is intensely embitturcd against
tho l'ottsvillo cllquo (or ptillling him into
hole, aud I sympathize with him in this con
nection, but it seems strange to mo that after
ids several yoars experience with various poli
tical affaire in this county that he should
hato given this clique a carte blnnctt to act
in tho niaitor Ho seems to havo forgotten
the many lessons he learned.
As tho days pass by tho details of this out
rageous affair become clear. They aro con
stantly dropping by tho waysido. As tho
story goes now Zerbey, after securing James'
consent to represent tlio Ashland syndicate,
went leforo tho County Commissioners and
told thera that the printing of the ballots was
worth $10,000, but as tho work was being
dono for tho county or, in reality, tho tax
payois, tho b.ddcis would not mind losing a
littlo money aud $8 000 would be price.
Tho more tho matter is discussed tho worso
it looks.
Details concerning the contract made bv
the County Commissioners and tho Controller
wilu. toe Allentowu printers aro also leaking
out. Tho present contractors havo agreed to
print all tlie ballots, make tliem ready forme
and deliver them in Pottsvillo freeof any ex
press or freight charges for $1,2!M But there
is a proviso that in ease there is a ' opulist
ticket, or uny tickets in addition to tho ro
giilarDemocratlc.Tlopublican and nomination
columns thero is to be an extra allowance of
$3 75 for each district. This, I understand,
has been considered and with all pos-siblo ex
tra charges tho contract price cannot run
over $2,000, in fact will not reach that figure
Ily their indopendeure and strict ad Iterance
to their-prnmlscs ut relorm Controller Severn
and Comity Ooinmisdoners Allen and Martin
havo exprsed one of tho most barefaced
attempts to gougo money out of tho pnblli
trea-nry over unearthed in this county aud
I will attempt to cito a fow fa its to show It.
I havo it from undoubted authority that in
1SU2 a prominent gentleman ol l'ottsvillo
nail an agreement with tho Unromcle and
Jf ners Journal by wh ch the Iattor woro to
print the fall election tickets, which were
douhlo tho sizo of tho specimen ballot. Tho
terms of tho agreement wero that tho two
papers wero to make returns of tho actual cost
of tho work, covering labor, cost of paper,
wear and tear on presses and type, ink, and
everything else aud with this ascertained 2."
per rent, was to ho added aud that wou'd
bo tho contract tirice This nroeram was car
ried out, and what do you think tho ballots
for tho fall election of 1KI3 cost? Just f-J,C00.
And I havo the additional In forma ion
from equally good authority that tbo Chroni
cle made an oiler last fall to print all tho elec
tion ballots for $000
la that any wonder that there should he so
much Indignation over tho printing exposure?

THE OLD TROTTING PARK
law Ivci- llurki, (Jimllllei mid Will Itrlng
Suit to Enforce Pay For Stock by Sub
scribers to tlio Mietmtidnalt Trotting lind
Athletic Association.
Steps were taken to-day to complete the
details making operative the appointment
of M. M. Uurko, Eq as receiver of tho old
Shenandoah Trotting and Athletic Aswcia
tion. Tliis morning Mr. Ilurko presented his
Receivership bond in tlio sum of fivo thousand
dollars to tho Court and It waa approved. The
sureties ou the bond aro Messrs. I. ltobbins
ii'id Harry liall.
Theso proceedings soem like an inquest on
tho body of a dead horse, but tho p titles at
tho hick of thoni say that at least two
thousand dollars tan bocolleoted aud bo up
plied to tho payment of somoof tho old debts
i-overal years ago the people of this
borough got tho idea that Ui y could main
tain a trotting park as will as Lavello and
formed a comply for that purpose. Over
a hundred people became inteiestod in the
muveuicut and subscribed forvaiinus amounts
of stock Some paid up their subscriptions,
some paid xrt, and some didn't pay at all,
but the concern managed to go ahead with
the capital ou hand aud tho confidence ot
well wishers and succeeded lu eiocting a
lar.-o grand stand and judge's stand, mado a
nice track and feceed it in, and constructed
it grand stand for tho huso ball ground at the
eastern end of the trotting pirk. Finally
everything was in readiness for trotting races,
aud basu bill and tho ptrk opened under
very auspicious circumstances, but the
scheme only lusted ouo brief season. Tho
park was located on tho dirt bank at tho
easterr onl-kirts of the town and pooplo
onjfciou to waiKitig a long instance and
climbing a steep hill to resell it. Tlio livery,
men had a chance to reap a harvest, but tbev,
like many olhets, woro nut satlstkd with
large salts and small profits ami disgusted
tho pooplo with high rates f.ir stage hire.
At all events Ihe Shenandoah Trottinc and
Athletic Assoc atii.n oasd to havo an active
etistcmc and was forgotten uiitil a short
limo ago when laaaclier ltobbins. who i ad
furnished tho Jumjier for tho grand s and aud
tho fences alio never received twy for it, dh
covend that the association was not legally
dead, beeiiuso no steps had been taken In
court to dissolve it, and that, therefore, the
stockholders who had failed to pay their
subscriptions wco liable tor tbo unliquidated
debts. Mr. liobbins then went into court
aud hud a receiver of the association an
pointed in the jerson of .Mr. Burke, and now
that tliat gcntlrtnan has qnalifltd, ho will
proceed to make collections from tbn delln
quen t stock holders to the amount of about two
thousand dollars.

Tho unlawful abrogation of the coutract
mado with Messis. Baron & llartman, and
James, by the County Commissioners for th
printing of the ballots fur tho coming election
and tho subsequent unlawful contract made
witli a certain Allen town printer for the same
work, has created onus dcrab'e comment, iu
which the Pottsvillo dailies come iu for a
good share of abuse. There are certain facts
in connection with this affair which at this
time it would bo improper to make public,
but which when tho proper time coinei will
be fully revealed. Tho gentloinen with
whom tills contract was made have already

Tluire is a comely saying that "lie who

less to a woakuena for the latter. Two or
three newspapers and a lew correspondents

tvhu received the coutract from the County
Commissioners for printing tho olectlou

readable literature. But, inasmuch as tho
Ashland gentlemen, MessrB. James, and
Barron et llartman, were tho original con
tractors for the printing of tlio ballots, and
have uow instituted proceedings against tho
county for the full amount of their bid, it
would lie Improper for tlio l'ottsvillo peepers
to enter into details at this time, although
thoroughly conversant with them. As tho
whole matter is to U) veutllated lu the
