NDIFFERENCE NOW EXISTS Some People Who Are Not as Active f tf the Campaign as They Should be For the Party's Welfare. Special Herald correspondence. Pottsville, Oct. 15. My letter in the HERALD of the 13tU lust, seems to have stirred up a hornet's nest in some circles among the Republicans, and in others find many Republicans who unqualifiedly endorse my sentiments and who consider what I suggested the proper thine to be done under existing circumstnncos. My bject in writing as I did was to stiffen the backbones of some who I know are among the most loyal Republicans in the county, and none have viewed the Indif ference among them with more pain than I have. The time which must elapse before the election is very short, but a great deal of good work can be done and victory snatched from the Jaws of defeat. Let the men who are holding back be seen and given td understand that they should come out and Show their colors; that it is essential to rescue the government from the hands of the present wreckers and their foreign allies. No American can afford to let this opportunity slip, as It means much for the next Presidency, The claim of the indifferent ones that they have as much right to bolt the ticket now as some men now .-mining had years ago when they bolted and fought superior men on the ticket, is an argument which is not worthy of consideration. It is the welfare of the party and the people that should be looked to. The hatchet should be burled, and buried deep. Too much time has been wasted in slamming doors in tho faces of those who have not been inclined to think as others. There should have been a fair and open understanding with the leaders of the different factions two months ago. If this had been done I would not have felt inclined to express the sentiments I did in my last letter, Let me say one thing. If there is one faction of the Republican party in this county which thinks it can get along without the assistance of any of the others. let that hopeful faction sit down and think awhile. Think over the experiences of the past and find tbe lesson. Then let them think over the situation of to day. Where aro Whitehouse, Losch, Koch Seltzer and other brilliant lights of tho party t No one disputes their shrewdness as politicians or their ability to help win a campaign, but where are they today Where have they been thus far in the campaign t I say again that danger lurks in the air. The ml who aro sulking must bo seen ana urgvu to fall in line with tho proces slon. More than this, they must be urged with diplomacy, not threatened or bull dozed. You can take any one of the men I have mentioned and find that his fol lowing is worth hundreds of votes. Keep your eyes open for y' Jos in the Republi can party. Every1 rote you get among the Democratic voters is a vote gained, but don't build on the promises of such votes.1 They are fickle. The v-uiocratlc greatest-show-on-earth, with Free Trade Blngerly, has opened on its second week of touring, but will not pitch its tents in Schuylkill until the week after next. On Tnesday, October 80th, the great adviser of tariff -jugglers will give day receptions at this place, Tamaqua, Mahsnoy City and Shamokln, and on the night of the same day meetings will be bold in Reading, Pottsville and Shenan doah. The date has been fixed as close as possible to election day in pursuance of a desperate effort to carry the miners by storm. Mr. Slngeriy will not attempt to speak for himself. He has already con ceded Hastings' election by a big majority. His aggregation of talent is on the road only to save as many Congressmen as pos sible. The party travels on a special train. Business is very dull here at present. The courts are closed and tho visitors from Shenandoah and other points north of the mountain are very few. Shenandoah is a great help to this place; even the news' paper men complain of times being slow when the courts close. The Shenandoah cases put lots of grit into their mill. In a copy of tho Sunday News I picked up this morning I noticed that the editor expresses some anxiety as to how the letter carriers will vote at the coming election, since they are all Republicans. I Buppose he has special reference to the Shenandoah force, but he doesn't say so, I am not acquainted with the force of your town, but I venture I can tell how they will vote; but I wouldn't undertake to say what Editor Doyle will do, although I have known him for years.

Mrs. Stanawlcz's Assailant. An account was given yesterday of Mrs. Martha Stanawicz rushing into Justice Toomey's office with blood streaming from wounds on her head and of Constable Gib llu's inability to find the man who beat her. Last night GIbliu took up the search again and arrested William Pukls, who was tho man charged with having com mitted the assault, but upon being given a hearing Pukls proved his innocence. William Malawltskl, a boarder in Pukls' house, was then arrested. He pleaded in nocence, but subsequently Bald he struck the woman with a club when she struck him with a poker. The tight was ia the dark and that accounted for the woman's uncertainty as to who her assail ant was. It also transpired that Mala wltskl had attempted to shoot tho woman's husband and he was put under $000 ball for trial at court. It appears that the francas was the result of an old grudge.

The Local Evangelicals Determinedly Denounce the Esherites. WILL PROBABLY BUILD ! Proposition to Try and Purchase the Building From the Esherites Carried After a Warm Debate. The congregation of the Evangelical church held a business meeting last night and took decisive action on its separation from the Evangelical Association, which controlled by the Bowmnnltes and Esh erites. Hereafter the congregation will be known as the United Evangelical church of Shenandoah. Justice C. W. Dengler was chairman of the meeting and R, Stocker tho secretary. Mr. Dengler spoke feelingly on the situa tion. He said thnt he had been n member f the church for twenty years and looked upon it as his homo. He was pained to think that at this late day ho was obliged leave the church and rellngulsh nil claim to It. John L. Hassler spoke and reviewed the recent proceedings in Reading. He was In favor of holding tho keys of tho church until the congregation received legal notice to quit possession. M. L. Kommcrer and O. S. Kehler also reviewed the proceedings at Reading. They said that If the Esherites sent n pastor hero the congregation would bo obliged to accept him, or vacate tho church, and it made no difference if there was not nn Esherito in the town, tho church must be surrendered. Mr. Kehler Bald he did not propose to go to law over the matter. That nothing but delay would be gained and the money which would be required for n law suit could be turned Into n fund to build n new church. He was in favor ot quitting the promises upon legal notice. J. II. Kester said he had been n member ot the church for twelve years nnd he didn't feel disposed to vacate until he was obliged to go. David Faust was called upon as one of the Trustees of the church, but ho said he had nothing to say. Somebody then suggested that on offer be made to pur chase the church from tho Esherites, but Mrs. T. J. James aroso and made n vigor ous protest. Sho said tho church had already been paid for twice by the con gregatlon's savings from its hard earnings and sho was opposed to buying it again, especially from the Esherites, who are not residents of tbe town and have no follow ers hero. Mr. Stoeker said he folt like Mrs. .Tamo He didn't like the Hen ot buying tho church again and putting the money Into the pockets of the Esherites. Mr, Hassler moved that a committee of seven be appointed to seek a site for a new church and that the same committee bo authorized to solicit subscriptions for a building fund and appoint ladles of the congregation to help them. The motion was carried. The suggestion that an offer bo made for the old church was again revived, lengthy discussion followed and It waxed warm when one of tho members Insisted that if there wero any Esherites In tho congregation they should declare them selves. Tho member was warned against becoming personnl and it was finally decided that the committee of seven havo power to see tf the old church can bo purchased at a reasonable figure; if not n new church will be built. The committee of seven Is composed of Messrs. John L. Hassler, M. L. Kemmerer, George W. Beddnll, O. S. Kehler, C. W, Gessler, R. Stocker and J. H. Kester. Justice Dengler announced that $500 was pledged in his office one day last week for a church fund. A PASTOR ASSIGNED. The Esherites Hare Decided Upon Rev, Lichtenwalner's Successor.

The prettiest oil cloth and linoleum In town at Frlcke's carpet store 10-10-lw AMUSEMENTS. "ArTBK TUB BALL." This Is what the Sunbury Dally has to say of "After the Ball" which appears at Ferguson's theatre this evening : "It Is almost Invariably the oase that when a good show comes to Sunbury it is not very well patronlr.ed and Friday night was no exception to this rule. An im pression prevailed In this place that "After the Bsll" was a burlesque and this perhaps kept n number of people away. "After the Ball" is a light comedy, full of wit and humor from stnrt to finish with nothing objectionable In it. Emmet Corrlgan, the leading actor, is one of the best seen In Sunbury for a long time and is certainly one of the best comedians on the stage. His support was superb and all who seen the play will surely go to see "After the Ball" if It ever comes to Sunbury again. It is brimful of humor nnd the audience did not get their faces straightened until the play wasover." "THE LIMITED MAIL." Since "The Limited Moil" has made such a phenomenal success, no less than ten companies have been organized or have adopted locomotives, cars or similar effects, but tho people appear to readily "get on to" the fact that Elmer E. Vance's ploy is tho Simon pure the "original Jacobs" so to speak, and while several of them nro side tracked nnd ready for the scrap pile, Manager Vance is continually adding new features to the drama, and accumulating a larger bank account.
