AYS OVT,Y ? THE 1 11 POLITICS A Letter From an Occasional Correspondent. REPUBLICANS HOPEFUL I Some Very SenilMo Advice Embodied Id Terse Paragraph Uow the Hopeful Ones Can Win and Uow They May Jflu a Golden Opportunity. Special Herald correspondence. - ' POTTSVILLE, April 14. "Vhat would you rather do than go fishing f" will for awhile be the question most of ten propounded among the devotes of Izaak Walton's popular sport, but throwfug a fly for speckled trout is not In it with angling for nominations and poli eal preferment now at its hejghtlf-nll over this county and- especially in the Legislative districts. Candidates are mora numerous among Republicans than Democrats this year, owing to the .pre vailing belief that the Democratic party bus. been disrupted unto death and (hat there is nothing to prevent a repetition of tho successes of last fall and spring,if..tto very bad breaks are mude by the. various nominating contentions. BLUNDEIlS.rOSSIBLE AND PHOIIABLB. , Just in the same degree that it is easierlto pull down than build up, so it is easier to make poor selections of candidates than good oncs.and this year, when every out look Is1 so favorable to Republican victory there will be a whole Coxey army of mediocre men clamoring nt tnd conven tion doors for an entrance, some of whom may force themselves, or be forced, on one or other of the tickets to bo named. Metaphorically speaking, many of these unworthles aro pollticul tramps who should be given a wide berth by the con vention magnates, but it is too often the rule that too-designing politicians control our nominations and tho Hagson Tatters element of both parties are preferred to the solid citizens who would grace and do honor to the offices to be filled. Let the dear people have their say and tickets will be graced by good men and true, who do not make office-seeking a profession and in whoso hands the trusts reposed would be safe. One possible blunder Republicans can make this year is In not nominating their strongest man for Congress against Mr. Itellly, who is not so easily defeated as some of our wiseacres' would have us believe. Mr. Itellly has not been in Con gress all these years for nothing that is it is not possible that so shrewd a politic ian ns he has not done much to make his position invulnerable during all his Con gressional life and particularly recently. That he has a certain following among the Republicans is too well known to admit of argument and It will require the party of protection to put its best man to the front this time and then to ao in to win with all Its might in order to drive Mr. Itellly from his entreached posi tion. Yes, it is possl ble and probable that a blunder may be made In naming a can didate to ueieat Mr. ueiuy tms lall. .Now mark my words. "BE NOT WEAItr OF WELL DOING," Should be the watchword of Hocubll- cans this year and forever. Without dis paraging any others who were chosen last year to important positions, it must be agreed that in the nomination and elec tion of such a man as Commissioner Frank Reutz the Republican party did itself honor. He is regarded bv the multi tude, including your humble scribe, as the broadest-guaged man In office on the hill. He has sense, courage and great executive ability, and I only wish 1 could inuite me same trutns aoout ail ine others to whom have been entrusted im portant county business. There nre too uiauy in omce wno tone tneir inspiration and counsel from broken down and tricky politicians. Do not let these blunders be repeated this yeur if they can be avoided and there is no doubt they can. The Republican party has another inning this year, but it can easily be bowled out by disregarding the injunction which sub-heads this paragraph. There aro many good men In both polit ical parties who would accept office if they are groomed properly and by the right people. They will not seek office for the sake ol having it, but they would ncceptjit If nn effort, earnest aud honest, la made to bring them out. Try it on once and una out. CANDIDATES NEW AND OLD. For instance what is the matter with Citizen Archie B. Lamb, of bheuandoah, for Jurv Commissioner t Do not belttlo the importance ot the position because I do not name Mr, Lanibiu.connectionwith a better navim? office. I want to empha size, right bere, the fact that there Is no county office in the gift ot the people so Important to the people and which makes a better stepping stone to iuture preier ment than tills verv office of Jury Com mlssloner. Any lawyer, or other court officer or habitue of the Temple of Justice at the county seat, can tell you ot the Sreat need of good men in the office of ury Commissioner to keep bad men out of the Jury wheel. Both parties ought to "sit on" any candidate for Jury Commis sioner wno seeks ine omce. oucu a per .nn nnlv wnntn It for the salarv that Is In it and to fill the jury wheel with the names 01 nis irienas, no matter uow in enmnetent thev mav be. I regard Mr. G. C. Schrink, of this borough, who has made bis mark as a School Director and who Is an all-around public spirited citizen, as the most popular candidate tor ine legislature in ine Fourth district. It the Mepubllcau dis trict convention falls to nominate Mr. Schrink It will make a tfrent mistake and possibly lose one of three members to be sent to Hnrrlsbtirg next winter. Ills Re publicanism borders on idolatry for party men nnd measures and yet bo is never offensive to the opposition and will receive me votes ot many Hundreds ot liberal minded Democrats. Mr. Scbrlnk's onuor tuulty Is this year and his friends should not permit any other candidate's aspira tion to bo boomed ahead of that of the enterprising merchant of the South East ward. Michael Moser, of Pottsville. Is, or will be, a itepuuucan candidate lor bherlir. He will cross swords with Alex. Scott for the ownership of the most delegates from all sections. John II. Cnntwell, ot Shenandoah, is another whose name is again seen on a card for Sheriff, subject to Democratic rules. He will enter the list against Tommy Hlggtns and try to capture some of the lntters promised delegates In tho five wards of your town and the groat Mahanoy valley. It was Mr. Daniel Shepp's prerogative to decline to run for office, as was pre dicted he would do in my letter which named him first, but it was n dictatorial step ho took in naming Frank P. Splese, of Tamaqua.as his legatee. The Democrats ot the 30th district have to name a Sen ator, not Mr. Shepp, and I would not be surprised If Mr. John J. Itellly, of Shen nndonh,, would be the man who would con test against Hon. John J, Coyle for the offic6. Mr. Rcllly, I happen to know, only td-dny consented to stand as a can didate and that only after much per aunsiou.by very close friends. lie will nt once go into training for the mill and you shall hear more of him hereafter. How pleased the Pottsville friends of D. II. J.lewellyn, of Shenaudoah, over the prospect of hU candidacy for Poor Director, the render may well Imagine. Dave was reared here and if he gets on the Republican ticket, ns I think he will. his old homo will roll up n rousing maj jority. a uetter mon man uavld 11. Llewellyn could not be named for such a rosDonsible nlace. Aud now Hon. Kllaa Davis steps Into ine arena for buerllt Truly the Repub lican county convention will have plenty of good material to choose from for this office with Scott. Glick and Davis in the field already and the whole southern end to hear from. And that body will need to name Us fastest runner if Israel Annie- gate wins the Democratic nomination. No snail can get near Israel. N. Little peck clams, sweet nni luscious', at McElhenuy's. HO INQUESTS ON SUICIDES. If They Are Held No Fees Can bo Collected. Juflgo McClean, of Gettysburg, has handed down an opinion In the matter of a coroners Inquest, that will be of more or less lnjorest to county officials all over the state It lias always been the custom in Adapt county for the Commissioners to pay tbe cost In Inquests over the bodies of suicides; butrteeutly, when a justice of the peace, In Gettysburg, presented his oiu to me court air npprovai lor an in quest on WllKwn Wttmore, who had hung himself, the attorney for the County Commissioners objected and filed excep tions. The court sustained the objections and its ruling Bays: As our Supreme Court has declared that an object of an Inquest Is to Beek informa tion and obAain und secure evidence In case of death by violence or other undue means wmcn must oe understood to reier to unlawful a at a done bv another Demon and not to Include the cause of suicide, the Justice acted In entire irood faith iu doing what from his knowledge of the law he bellevedto beright.btit he suffered the risk of exceptions such as havo been filed In this case and If the careful inves tigations of tho legal question which had not before been presented to the court, when a coroner or a justice at. his absence, is called upon to view a dead body he should make some reasonable inquiry Into tne circumstances or the death oelore proceeding to summon a Jury and hold tbe inquest. When tbe surrounding facts do not show the death to be the result of unlawful acts done by another or of criminal necllKence of another, there is no necessity ior an inquest, if or the prelim inary inquiries, the law has provided no compensation and they must be taken witnout any.

THE LAW TO BE ENFORCED An ihlbltlon of a Vaccination Mark Is Not Ijulllclent Certificates Must be qillriHl by the Kcliool Hoard In All Caiei In Iteeard to Scholar. The School Board and the vaccination regulations absorbed the most of the at tentlon ot the Hoard of Health last night. The board got the impression that the other board was a little too liberal in its construction ot the regulations concern ing vaccination, and it decided before ad journment that the regulations must be observed nnd if people are Inconvenienced tne biatne must rest with the school Directors, who deviated from the rule. The members present were .Messrs. Spalding, Mnlono, Miles nnd McIInle. Mr. m. i: vvuuaKer, superintendent oi tne public schools, was also in attendance. He said he had learned through the HEltALD that tho Hoard of Health would hn.ve a discussion over the School Hoard's aciou on tbe vaccination question and ho was present to be heard in the board's be- iiaiisiiouiu any action lie taken. Mr. Miles said that ho did not agree with the School Hoard's decision Hint the exhibition of n scar is a compliance with ine law on vaccination, nnu lie tuouirtit the ordinance requiring a certificate that vaccination nas been neriormed witmn seven years should be adhered to. Messrs. Aicllale and Ainlouo agreed with Mr. Miles. Mr. Whltaker said that of the 2.400 scholars attending the schools fully ten to twelve nunured nre under ten venrs or nee. and that is an indication tbnt their vaccinations cannot, uo ot long standing. Ho also said that many children have been vaccinated within tbe nnst seven years, but the operations may bnvo been performed in foreign countries, on board ships, or in quarantine, and certificates from the nhyticiaus who made the vacci nations cannot be secured. On tho latter point the board decided that n certificate from tho parents would bo sufficient. Mr. Whitaker said he didn't wish tho public to get the impression that the School Hoard and Hoard of Health were not.ln co-operation, yet he had no apology to inake, as no considered mat under all the circumstances the actions of tbe School Hoard were wise. In answer to a remark bv Mr. Whltaker that a strict enforcement of the law was not necessarv In the nbsence of nn em demlc, Mr. Malone said that small pox is not an hour's rldo from Shenandoah. There nre three cases lug Shamoklu mid the people of this town cannot be too cautious. After Mr. Whltakerwlthdrewthe board Rave tbe subject additional attention nnd then passed a resolution instructing tho secretary ot the School Board thnt that board shall be coverned by section 45 of the rnles nnd regulations, which provides mat any punll wno has nut been vacci nated within seven years shall not be al lowed to attend the public schools. The board also decided that it does not approve the acceptance ot vaccinations oy ine ocuooi uoara wituout a certiucato, Secrotarv Scaulan reported that since the last meetliiE he has received reports of two cases of measles, one of typhoid fever and one of chicken oor.

T'i9 StatonrortheNpickUd Uetatl.ali at Ilsnd. On Monday, or more truthfully speak ing, on Sunday, the trout season will be open, nnd If you know where they can b found tho law will not Interfere with your angling so long as you use only rod, hook and line nnd keep no fish under 5 Inches in length. Ot course, you must bo positive about the 5 Inches. If you havo a "bad oye" for distance a good plan would be to make two parallel marks on the top of your basket just five Inches apart and allow no fish to go Into It which will not cover one mark with his head and the other with his tail and both at the same time, un Sunday certainly no true angler will cast his line, but nn Mmiilnv null., n rush to the streams will be made nnd he wno readies the chosen spotntthctenrllest hour will no doubt show the best results upon returning home In tbe evening. But, when we think of it, there will be very little fish killed oh Monday for the molt ing of the snow will cause n little torrent In the trout creeks and no person will be able to wade them or iu any manner satisfactorily fish In them. There will be very littlo fish caught on opening day. As n bait for trout the red striped earth worms aro the most alluring. They form a more attractive object In the water than tho black ones when placed loosely upon tho hook, but some anglers prefer the totlfzll black nnns for ttm ritnann timt. they are not so easily pulled from the hook by tho lish. l'KICSOXAU Alfred Lewis is on the sick list.
