TUESDAY. OCTOBEU 31. 1809.
OUR COUNTRY : First. Last and Forever.
Evidence of n Han's Worth.
It Is uiuusinK in the extreme to
wutoh the efforts of the Deinoeratie
press to bolster up the candidates of
that party and to close the eyes of
the people to the facts. Especially is
this true in perusing the editorial
articles appearing in the Pottsville
Chrouicle. Last evening our con
temporary was sufficiently bold to
present the name of the Democratic
candidate for Recorder, and those of
our readers who know the manager
of the Chronicle and the candidate
for Recorder, and their political re
lations in the past, especially so at
the time that a vacancy existed on
tile Board of County Commissioners,
will accept the Chronicle's opinion in
the light of "campaign literature."
The Chronicle editor's opinion of
Mr. Joseph Nichter, the Democratic
candidate for Recorder, at the time
mentioned, would hardly look well in
print, neither would it ndd to the
latter's "popularity and worth."
After burdening its readers with a
short biography of Mr. Nichter, the
Chronicle boldly asserts that "the
best evidence of a man's worth is the
regard in which he is held by his im
mediate neighbors." We fully agree
with our contemporary. Now let us
see what the neighbors of Mr.
Nichter think of him. When a va
cancy existed on the Board of County
Commissioners there were a number
of Democratic applicants, prominent
among them being our friend of the
Chronicle, und Mr. Joseph Nichter.
It was generally believed that the
present Democratic candidate for
Recorder was slated for the position.
Did Mr. Nichter's "immediate neigh
bors" rally to his support and urge
his appointment? Did they regard
him as embodying those qualifications
that make an efficient public servant 1
We think not, and if the Chronicle
will jog its memory a little it will
bear us out in this statement. It will
also remember that Mr. Nichter's
application for the appointment was
withdrawn. Why 1
When it became generally known
that the "powers that be" had de
cided to appoint Mr. Nichter as
County Commissioner, the good
citizens of Pottsville Mr. Nichter's
"immediate neighbors," the people
"who should know his worth" pre
sented to court a numerously signed
petition, including the names of the
most prominent business and pro
fessional men of the county seat,
setting forth that ho was "not a fit
person" to be County Commissioner,
The query naturally arises, if Mr.
Nichter, in the opinion of his im
mediate neighbors, was "not a fit
person to be County Commissioner,"
is he any better qualified to be
County Recorder ?
Will our contemporary answer that
question, and be fair to its readers ?
The people have a right to know
what manner of man they are asked
to support for an important county
office, one of the most important on
the "hill." A slight error in the re
cording of official doouments, such as
deeds, mortgages, etc., might came
untold injury and loss to the patrons
of the office.
The Chronicle should play fair,
when it publishes biographical
sketohes of candidates. It should be
honeit to its readers and give all the
information it possesses. Our con
temporary might go further and
enlighten its readers in reference to
the Ben. Cummings "hold up" ; who
the men were that compelled him to
resign as DIstrlot Attorney after hav
ing been elected by 5,000 majority.
Let the people have all the lnforma
tion.

FERRYUOAr Kt.N DOWN.
Bunk by a Savannah Line Steamer In

ported Drowned.
New York, Oct. 31. Tho Pennsylva
nia ferryboat Chicago, plying between
Ji rspy City nnd Now York, wus cut in
Jwo by tho stoamer City of Augustn, of
the savannnh steamship lino, nt
12:35 this morning on tho Now York
side of North river. She wont down
In seven or olght minutes. Thoro worn
30 or 40 people aboard, four being wo
men. It is supposed that soveral per
sons were drowned, though thero Is no
positive proof ot this assertion.
In spite of the severity ot the nc
citlent there was no panic. Most of
the people were on tho upper deck and
only halt a dozen persons woro on the
lower deck. Most of tho persons man
aged to obtain Hfo preservers. Some
others who could not obtain them,
about half a dozon In number, swam
ashore.
Tho Old Dominion llnor was evi
dently coming up the river at the time
of the accident, whilo tho ferryboat
Chicago was bunded straight across
across from tho Now Jorsey shoro for
the New York slip.
Kstimutes mode by the persons who
succeeded In escaping vary widely,
some thinking It possible that no los'S
of life resulted, whilo others believe
that at least a score of persons wero
drowned.
Tho stenmboat squad, a fow minutes
beforo 2 o'clock, found a body which,
It Is supposed, Is that of one ot the
passengers on the ferryboat, drowned
ns the result of the collision.
Mr. H. W. Wblo, of this city, sayft he
saw four women struggling in th"
water near him, but was unable to help
them. Ho wus picked up by a lifeboat
One boat brought In six mon, two wo
men nnd a child.
Oscar Watson, of the Associated
Press, was one of those who escaped.
Ho says: "Thoro wore about 40 peo
ple on tho ferryboat besides the crew.
1 saw four women and one little boy.
Tne latter was with his father, who ap
peared to be an Italian. I should think
tho boat Bank within seven minutes. 1
did not get a llfo preserver, but when
I saw she was going down, plunged
overboard and swam for tho shore.
Five men swam alongside of me."
Captain Durham commanded the
ferryboat Chicago. He succeeded in
making his oscape. Ho says that ho
has accounted for all tho members of
his crew except Fireman From me. He
thinks that Fromme was either drown
ed or crushed to death in the stoke
hole. That Throbbln Headache

Heed IMrd Hunter.
Chicago, Oct. 31. Bleeding from a
score of wounds J. J. Goraghty, a po
lice operator In South Chicago, yes
terday reached his home and told a
strange story of an attack on himself
and dog by a horde of muskrats In tho
swamp along the Calumet river.
Goraghty entered the swamp early lu
the morning to hunt for reed birds. His
dog, a magnificent Gordon setter, ac
companied him. Shortly after noon he
started for home. Suddenly the bark
ing of his dog startled him, and he ran
forward to find the animal literally
covered with muskrats, who were
fighting desperately, biting and squeal
ing like mad. They nipped at the dog's
eyes and caught his tongue in their
sharp teeth. He seemed almost help
less, and Geraghty fired his shotgun
at the little army of rodents which
came scampering to tho scene, hoping
to scare the ones which werefastkllllng
the dog. He mowed down a dozen rats
without appreciably decreasing their
number. The dog at last succumbed
and the reinforcements, numbering a
hundred, Geraghty says, turned their
attention to him. "Thoy climbed
through my clothes In no time and bit
me savagely," said he. "and the only
thing that saved ray life was the ar
rival of a couple of other hunters, who
ran In with clubs and beat the llttlo
fellows off."
Geraghty's story Is corroborated by
the hunters who rescued him.
