JUDGE KOCH BOLTS.
Ho Will Not Support the lleinibllcan
County Ticket.
It has been well known, by his intimate
personal and political friends, that oz-Judgo
R. H. Koch, of Pottsvlllo, was displeased
with the way in which some of tho Repub
lican candidates securod their nomination,
but It was somewhat of a surprise to learn
that he had concluded to bolt tho county
ticket as a whole.. When tho announcement
was mado public yesterday it causod con.
siderablo surprise among tho county scat Re
publicans, and tho Democrats as well.
In an intorview with a reportor Judge
Koch stated that tho report was true. He
said tho oounty convention was dominated
by fraud and that some of tho delegates had
sold their votes, and especially so far as the
judiciary is concerned. From his convorsa
tton it is Inferred that Judge Koch will
oppose tho entlro Republican ticket. Ho
says he will remain loyal to tho great prlnci
plea of Republicanism and to tho stato ticket,

tax 01 livo mills, fo, making his total water
tax ?. rrovious lo tlie ostabllsiimcut 01 1110
borough plant ho only paid $0. Ho, therefore,
is 1110 loser.
iNow look at a dlflorent n dure. As an
Illustration, a man owns a block of twenty
tenement housos which are now assessed at
1 1,000. For those ho pays for each of tho
twenty families a wator tax of only 10 cents.
and a water rent of or n total of $3.10.
I ho taxpayors can drawn their own con
clusion.
Tho members of Council, and especially the
taxpayeis of tho borough, should givo those
matters tholr serious attention. That the
plant at present is not self-sustaining is fully
proven. Tho remedy should bo derived from
tho peoplo who vested tho authority to eroct
tlie plant in the hands 01 Uouucll.
That wo need an Additional sunnlv of wator
is beyond dlsputo. Many propositions arc
irosonted and discussed, but nothing tangible
iias ns yet resulted. Tbo people, fortunately.
are in a position to dictate terms, and will
never again to "at tlio mercy of tlio grasping
proclivity uf a corporation," if members of
Council nro faithful td their trust.
Among tlio propositions is one to lease tho
plant for a period of ten years, at a yearly
rental of say 113.000. with a bond to main
tain tho present rates, with tho privilege of
Increasing tho family rato to 50 cents a month,
At tho end of that period tho total borough
indebtedness would bo wiped out, with tho
nlant turned over to tho borough, paid for.
and no extortiouato rates from the people as
a result.
Othors favor the purchasing of tho old
water company plant at say $00,000, in yoarly
payments of $10,000. Tho argument is used
that in ten years it would bo paid for. and
tho borough would have no competitor. Tho
roveuuo derived from that source in dupli
cate, would coual tbo yearly payments. Be
sides, it would only bo necessary to run the
pumps, at tlio lilgliest, two montns in tuo
year, thus savlug in coal, freight, hauling,
engineers' and firemen's salarios and in
cidentals, about 9.000 each year. Then.
again, it is claimed tho borough could not
build dams, holding tho same capacity, for
fOO.000.
Still another proposition is to build storage
near tbo present reservoir at lsranaonviuo.
Council has already fully discussed this.
which resulted in an Indignation meeting bv
tlio taxpayers, who objected to further ex
penditure along theso lines such as was

The publication of this telegram
caused a great sensation here, and tho
general Impression Is that achneluor s
disavowal has dealt a severe blow to
the prosecution, killing the only point
In General Morcler's evldonce that was
dangerous to Dreyfus.
All sorts of dark rumors are atioat
here. Nearly the whole town Is awake
after midnight. Everyone Is unwilling
to go to bed. Since the attempted as
sassination of Maitro Laborl on Mon
day passion has run so high, excite
ment Is so Intense that only a word is
needed to start a fight, A street fracas
might end In riot, and riot In mas
sacre. The nearness of the anniver
sary of St. Bartholomew's day Is pos
sibly tho reason that a threatened mas
sacre of Jews Is vaguely but persistent
ly whlsperod. St. Bartholomew's day
is Aug. 24.
M. Laborl was able to leave nis oea
for three hours today and even to
walk thrice across his room. Tonight
the doctors think he will be able to be
present at next Monday's session.
Mme. Laborl has received a number of
menacing letters. One that came today
said the writer was sorry the would-be
assassin had not killed, not only La

London. Aug. 18. The correspon

characterization of M. Bortulus as
"Judas." failed of the Intended effect.
because Colonel Jouaust, president of
the court martial, was handed on an
onymous lettor proving the whole
scene prearranged. The correspondent
of The Dally Chronicle predicts that

Verdict Against the llorough.
Tho arbitrators appointed to decide the
case between the borough of Gilberton, and
the Schuylkill Traction company, made their
award yesterday, deciding that there was "no
cause for action." The alleged cause of
action was tho neglect of tho Traction com.
pany to keep in proper condition a pieco of
road occupied by its tracks, and at which
place Patrick Rvan recoived injuries, for
which the borough had to pay him $1,112
damages. It is likely that the decision ,f
the arbitrators will be appealed from.
