SOME RELIABLE POINTS I A Story Concerning CongreMiima Hellly nml Kx-Seimlor King lMncounteil Car toons an AVenpottM In l'olltlcut Cum put gnu. Llvfly Times Xnr at Hand. Special Iikkai.d correspondence. Pottsville, June S. Imagination has done uiauy things in this world but it never paid the Xational debt, nor it will never give the devil his due. Tho story of a slate in Thursday's issue of tho Morn ing Despatch Bounds so much liko the revamping of a similar one in the Sun day Xews last Sunday week, that the reader of both might bet his boots with safety that tho same fellow wrote both, although thev nimearcd in tinners din metrically opposed in politics. Thut's nothing. Newspuper writers nowadays uon't care wnetner tney write lor a Dem ocratic or Republican sheet especially when they dish up politics. It's a blamed poor apology lor a correspondent or editor wno cannot write to suit tho tastes ot everybody. Such n one wouldn't be worth, beer money to any newspaper. AN UNLIKELY STOllY. It is amusing to read soma of the stories dressed up for the political eager ones "those days," as nn Irish acquaintance puts It. We are asked now to believe that Congressman lleilly is a fool. He is put up fjr a fool now, at least, by the party who invented the slate witli Frank Splese for Sheriff and Charlie Klnu- for Senntor. I have it from close friends of the Con gressman that there Is no such sldte. He ond King do not take their juleps througli tne snmo straw. Tney nover did, nor never will, drink from the same canteen. And if any ono believes that Kellly can afford, at this time, when so many of his olu-tlme. solid Irish-Democratic Bun porters are lukewarm ou him, to slap thoe people in the face by turning down McKernau, HIggius and Langton by one fell swoop, such a believer is a Qt subject for n lunatic asylum. There never has been a time in Mr. Keilly's political career when he needs to conciliate these people so much as now. The man of nolitical sagacity will take no stock in Buch a story. A KING CARTOON. If ex-Senator King should be nominated look out for a great effort to wipe up the surface of the 30th district with him. Ills enemies already are preparing to cartoon nim wima view to narpoon mm on elec tion. If the author of this cartoon don't eel his shoe laces fancied it will renre sent the ex-Senator us u Dugo driver. He win ne snown us n contractor with a whip iusu us long as ntauy-uo coacu wmpdrlv Iul' the Uncos to work at UO cents it ilnv. In bus relief will ho pictured, huddled to gether, in tattered garments, laboring men (and voters) who refused to work for (ju cents a uay, sturvutlou wages, una there will be exhibited somewhere on the face of tho cartoon fac similes of the meagre pay checks, from fiOc. to 5c. for two weeks work, drawn by miners and laoorers in tuese nam times upon wmch to sustain large families. Tho whole is intended to show up Mr. King as ono who is in for enriching himself, even to the degradation and sturvutlou of the meu he expects to put him In tho Senute by their votes, where he can bask in the sunshine ot the powers who give out contracts. RIDICULE A6 A WEAPON. Ridicule is a powerful weapon. There are some who believe that Tom. Xnsh's and Puck's cartoons beat the great state! man, Hon. James G. lllaine, for Presi dent. Thnt was n terrible one in Puck that represented HUine and Logan in the slouch of desnond. slttinir on n lotr in n swamp nud entitled "Me and Jim." And I well remember how cx-Congressman Urumm and Charlie Wells got one printed in Xew York on Hon. John W. llyon, representing him taking the oath In n Know Nothtnc lodire. and evervbodv not too young will well remember that tne lion, donn was ridiculed to death and beaten for Conuress that vear. Yes. ridicule is n powerful weapon and n mean one, too. The fellows who resort to it ought to be horse-whipped. Many a good citizen has been smirched by a cowardly enrtoonist. Rut if you don't want to be cartooned keep out of politics and in legitimate business. TJIK FEATIIEIlS WILL SOON FLY. James J. Franev was here tho other day and gave it out that he would com mence to lay out ex-Senator King next week. As Frnney Is in the uudertnking business "lay out" was an appropriate term to employ. King wilj come back nt urnney, no uounr, witn tne remurk that he will nroceed to "make il tuinud through him," and so these two battle scarred veterans will take a full out of each other. It would he fur better if they got, logemer anu tossea up a penny letting the fellow who cot tail get out of the light, because this contest will become so hitter between them that after the nomi nation that there will be nothing but wormwood left. The feathers will soon 11 v in the Senatorial skirmish and Frauev told the people down here that he wasn't Koine to be the "Dead cock in the nit." All your scribe knows about it now is wnat franey tells mm, and tout is that he is goiug to win. When Mr. Klntr unbends, unllmbers and thaws out sufficiently to bo up- Eroacbed, I will Interview him and hear ow he is irolna- to do Franev. Meanwhile all you chappies up in the Thirtieth who like sport may prepare yoursolves for a good and rich farce-comedy when these two mrus get nt it m earnest. NOTES.

AN INTERESTING GAME I TIio VIsltliiE Pitcher Kept Our Hoys Tldiiklnw 1'or u While, Hut (l,ive Wny Under the Strain anil Then Wo I'uuuced Upon Mini, The base ball season was opened at the Trotting park yesterday afternoon under very favorablo circumstances, the wenther being delightful, tho crowd num bering about 800 people and the homo teum winning tho gamobyngoodmarglu. Tho season bids fair to bo oven more suc cessful thnu the lust one. Tho- gnme was a pretty pitcher's battle for the llrst three innings, during which the Shamoklu pitcher did not give tho home teum n hit nud tho two runs scored were clue to tho passed balls of Boyd. After that Inning Kutzner became very wild and three wild pitches, three bases on balls, n passed ball and n rank error by Kutzner allowed the lining club to add three more runs to its score. In the seventh iiiniug Kutzner ngniu be enmo very wild nud iu addition to his two wild' pitches gnve tho Shennndonh's the ueneiu oi lour nits, lloyd also con tributed another passed hall and tho home tenm added live more runs to its score. It may uesniu uiai alter tuo tnird Inning the Shamoklu battery went to pieces and uio ueiuers wero too slow at critical points. Shultz, tho ex-BIoomsburg mnn, did excellent work In tho box uud Catcher Fulmer proved nn ndmlrnbie general. L'p to the close of the llfth Inning the Snamoklnltes mado but ono hit off Shultz, uuu uner una no wcuKeueu somewiiat, still he put up n pretty stiff game and held the visitors down to Ave hits during tho balance of the gnme. Kutzner Is credited with twelve strike outs, but he is indebted innrntn "fnminru" than to his skill for thnt record. Lewis tanned tne air tour times out of the Ave times he wns nt the but nnd lie wns Buvcd from a fif thjstrlke out by Kutzner's throw to second to cut Schultz off on n stenl. Fulmer wns nlso nn uuluckv bat wleldpr nud was struck out three times of the six thnt he went to tho nlute. Musser, tho lntest addition to the home team nud late of the DetnorestB of Will lamsport, proved tho stnr hitter of the day and aroused great euthuslnsm by liU two bugger nnd three bagger. Up to the time he accomplished the first lent tho people were of the impression that there wasn't n mnn on the homo team who couiugetthe hall outside the diamond. Musser's work broke the ice and several of the players found tho ball after. Tho feature of the gome wns nn ncro- oatic play oi Toole. (J.

Toole hud been keeping guard in deep left. He gauged the flight and then 1 i ted toward tho diamond at brenk-necK. speed. The bull nppeured to drop severul feet in front of him und It wus not until Toole hud turned n complete somersault, lnmllmr stiuurely upon his shoulders, rolled over Hue n nan upon his right Bide and with the hnnd contninlugthe ball hold as high as tho awkward position would nllow.that the spectators realized that tho side had been retired nnd the Shnmokinites were deprived of two runs.
