Office, Birkbeck Brick, 3d floor, Centre Street. /Jntered at the Freeland Postoffiee as Second Class Matter. FIIEELANP, PA., NOVEMBER, 6,'90. THIS country has far more to fear from millionaireism than it has from anarchism. THE news we set before our readers to-day, is such as to make every hon est man in the State rejoice. THE workingman who last year paid $lO for a worsted suit will pay the coming year #l3. The time when his wages will he increased has not yet been fixed. THE next House of Representatives at Washington will contain a Mc- j Kinley, but he hails from the first district of New Hampshire, and will I vote with the Democrats. EVERY fair minded citizen conceded j Pattison's election last Tuesday but , the politicians, under the instructions j of Matthew Stanley Quay, attempted to subvert the will of the people by fraud. THE next victory to be gained by the people will be when they will be called upon to vote to eliminate from the constitution the clause pertaining I to the numbering of the ballots. WHEN the United States steamer Mohican called at Auckland, New Zealand, for coal last September the miners were out on a strike, and fuel could not be obtained. The Colonial Government, however, asked them to coal the war-ship, and they agreed to do so, going into the mine, bringing out sufficient eoal, and then resuming their former attitude. These rude | miners had probably never heard of international courtesy and comity; but they practiced it, none the less. Who will say that miners are un grateful ? THE Philadelphia Record , in com menting on the treachery of some of the so-called Democratic voters in the Fourth Ward of that city, says: "The treachery of the people who call themselves Democrats in the Fourth Ward, on Tuesday was damna ble. Their shameful figures are a blot on their honesty." The TRIBUNE can say the same thing of some of those of Foster township, especially those who were paid to peddle the regular Democratic ticket. The parties who offered a bogus ticket to an old and respected citizen of the township at South Heb erton poll, under the cover of dark ness, is well known; and in future will be consigned to oblivion, from which he will never retire. LONO before the Scranton conven tion the TRIBUNE surmised that Patti- j son would be the Democratic nominee for Governor, and in our issue of Jan uary '23 d, 1890, the following appeared in its editorial column : The action of Lawrence and Lacka wanna counties in electing and instruct ing their delegates to the State conven tion for ex-Governor Robert E. Pattison, as the nominee of the party for Gover nor, is significant, and shows that the people are alive to their own interest. Give us Pattison and victory ! The TRIBUNE, from the time of the Democratic convention until its last issue, kept its readers buoyed np with the assurance of Democratic sue I cess. Its facilities for obtaining news of the result of the Quay Delamater revolt among the intelligent Republi cans of the state were far ahead of | any of its contemporaries, and to-day we take a pardonable pride in having j been in a position to take an active 1 part in the battle for an honest Gov- ! eminent and the defeat of a most cor rupt and corrupting enemy. Let the good work go on. The Flection of Jeffrey. The contest in the fourth legislative | district for Representative was one of I locality rather than of party or men. j The issue thrown out by the people of llazleton, of a New County, had very | little to do with the result. Some time ago a pledge was issued by D. A. 87, K. of L. to the two candidates I Messrs. Boyle and Jeffrey, and was by them signed and returned in due time. From that time until the day of election the choice was left to the voters them selves to make their own selection with out any istruction a coercion from its | officers. The fitness and ablity of the both can didates were never questioned on this side of the district. That Wm. R. : Jeffrey, will make an honest and faith ful representative, and be true to his constituents we have not the least doubt. The people of Freeland, and Foster township have known Mr. Jeffrey for years past and when fighting his battles side by side with his fellow workingmen for the right of all, he was always found to he at his post of duty. Inhiselection (while not favoring his political policy) the TKIBCXE has every confidence in his ability anil integrity, and predict for him a term that will he creditable not only to himself, hut also to his constituents, and should the people of this district desire, a new county he will do his duty to them irrespective of party or location. MISSING LINKS. A two legged horse is on exhibition in A New York museum. The Missouri River runs 1.000 miles j through Dakota and is navigable the entire distance. A Cleveland man bought a broken down street car horse for $lO, kept him a year, and sold him for $175. A prisoner in the St. Louis jail is charged with having robbed another prisoner of over SI,OOO. Force of I j habit. Harriet BeeeherStowe is an honorary member of the Authors Club of New York, and the only writer of the gen tler sex connected with that organiza tion. Gabrielle Greeley, the only surviv ing member of Horace Greeley's fam ily, lives at Chautauqua with trusty servants and leads almost the life of a recluse. Maxwell Sommerville of Philadelphia has just purchased a beautiful antique cameo of Jupiter iEgiochus, preserved I from the first century, It is said to have cost $50,000. Lady Sandhurst, upon whom the freedom of the City of Dublin has been conferred, is said to be the first woman upon whom that honor has been be stowed for 300 years. In removing the last pound of butter from a jar a Wheeling grocer discover |ed the remains of two mice. They had evidently been alive when the careful housewife began packing the butter in j the jar. The entire family of Thomas Stevens. I of Farmingdale, Me., are crazy on the | subject of monkeys. There are none i ; of the simian animal about the house, ! ! yet the Stevenses profess to see them i ' everywhere. The ex-Empress Eugenie is said to he more than usually infirm, and spends a great portion of her time in silence | ami meditation, whether she is lodged in her own house or is visiting at-the mansion of some friend. Eliphalet Condor of Georgia has been married nine times. Five wives are dead, three are divorced, and the ninth, bids fair to live to be a widow. Eliphalet | has had twenty - seven children, of < | whom nineteen survive. Benson, "the Jubilee Plunger," is again in a state of financial collapse, and is contemplating a lecture tour in i this country. But Americans need no instruction on how to spend money, What they like to hear is how to earn it. ! At Augusta, Me., some boys, playing in a sandbank unearthed a huge sfcull lof some extinct animal. The skull is represented as being four feet long and 1 the huge jaws carry teeth six and seven inches long which are decidedly ugly i looking. Uncle Jerry Rusk, Secretary of Agri- j culture, does not use tobacco. He ; j says: "I have been a farmer, a stage driver, a soldier, and politician wilh ' out learning to chew or smoke, and I " j want all the credit that is due me for my abstemiousness."

Those living 1 near the place declare that they have i- seen the dog, or his ghost, almost every _ j night since then and heard cries, as of an animal in distress, whenever a train j went past. I Experiments are now being made in Italy upon the electrification of wine. Fifty different sorts of wine have al ready been experimented upon, and the results have beeu very satisfactory. The wine is clarified, acquires a "bou quet," anil is said to stand equally j well transport by land or long journey j ! 'y sea. Moncuro I). Conway, the Herald and Presbyter learns from credible authori- j ty, is the hero of "Robert Elsmere." It " | is well known that Mr. Conway's mis- i ' sion to London was a failure. He will , } j be remembered as pastor of a Unit a-j 'i rian church in Cincinnati, and under I his "progressive" ministry a large part I of his congregation seceded. Mrs. Gladstone takes a deep interest I in politics. She concludes a recent let- I 1 tor to a friend as follows: "I must thank you in both our names, for it is j only just that we should give you a J share in the glorious victory. It seems 1 to us significant, and, looking at the j facts, we see in it the voice of the peo- j pie; but we must persevere." i Count Waldersee, Chief of Staff of i the German army, remarked in an in- j terview a few days ago: "To imagine j that I desire war is nonsense." But he ! immediately appended notice to whom it may concern that he believes the German army could wipe up the map of Europe with any other Power "should Providence, however, send us war." A farmer living about three miles southeast of Akron, Ohio, has a hen which occasionally lays an egg of solid ! shell throughout, usually after none of j any kind has been laid for several , days. Six of these curiosities have al ' ready been secured. They are so hard that they can be thrown smartly against a wall without any visible ef fect. M. Constans, French Minister of the Interior, always keeps a cross of the Legion of Honor in the drawer of his table in his private office. When any body eomes to him touting for a dec oration he opens this drawer and shows ; the cross. "It is lying there for you," | he says, "and at the first opportunity you shall have it. But distinguish yourself just a little more before." A Brooklyn girl, who is an heiress, but whose property is in care of a trust company, applied to the president for money with which to buy a sealskin i sacque. He refused on the ground . that it was a luxury. The girl then up- j plied to the Supreme Court through a r lawyer for permission and it was grant i. ed. and in less than two hours the , , i young lady was wearing the best one she could find. In the lower house of the state legis lature of Atlanta, Ga.. the gallery was crowded with visitors, and among the H audience was an old countryman. °The n old man recognized a friend among the 0 members of the house and leaned over ] the railing and yelled: ••Hello, Boh! bless my heart, it does me good to see ' ; 3i he speaker rapped for order 1 and the doorkeeper "sat down" on the 1 loquacious countryman. I I <'orr*Hponilenco From tlie Capitol WIBHINGTOK, Nov. 4, 1800. ' I It is stated on the authority of a mem- ; j her of the President's oiiicinl family ; that it had been decided to call an extra | session of Congress to meet early in No-1 i vember after the elections. There has been a good deal of gossip afloating dnr- 1 ing the last week as to the likelihood of an extra session, but it was generally be- ; Sieved that it was pure speculation. The I few members and Senators in town were j inclined to so regard it, and at the lie publican Congressional Committee head- > I quarters last Friday it was stated with ! positiveness that no extra session would i be held. But something seems to have ' occurred to make the administration con- i elude that an extra session was necessary, j This something is believed to have been the advice coming in from all parts of the country regarding the prospects of ■ the Republicans in the pending Con gressional elections. These advices are believed to have been to the effect that the Republicans could scarcely hope to secure a majority in the next House of Representatives, notwithstanding the immense amount of work they were doing in the doubtful districts. The ef fect of the McKinley bill in causing a raise in prices of many of the neces sities of life proved very discouraging to their campaigners, and instead of the bill helping the partv it seems destined to do more damage than any other ele ment in the pending struggle. When i Congrees adjourned the question of an extra session was held in abeyance. The President did not want to call one if it could be avoided. If the Republicans could retain their hold on the House in the next Congress then they could pass the Force bill at their leisure in case the short session of the present Congress did not afford them time to do it. There is no absolute unanimity among the Re publican leaders as regards the ex ! pediency of calling an extra session, i It being necessary to issue the proelama j tion in advance of the election, the idea j arises that it would be taken up by the Democrats, who would charge that the Republicans did not expect to carry the I Congressional elections, and were fore- I stalling their defeat. This might work injury in some of the close districts, i which the Republicans are now en deavoring to carry. I No problem that has confronted our ' Congressional legislators, not even that of < I sutTrage, has been so troublesome or has 1 promised in future t<> be so troublesome : !as the problem of pensions. And it is 1 not because the nation or any consider- 1 able part of it begrudges to the deserv- i 1 ing veteran the small sum he individually I receives as the reward of his patriotism - and self-sacrifice. If the deserving pen- j sioner were all there would be no prob lem. But between the undeserving ap i plicant for pension and the still more undeserving agent in such application the Republic's Congressional committees and the Republic's coffers have a hard time. That this time is not likely for a great many years to be any easier let j these facts and figures based on Com | missioner Ratim's recent report, show to j the incredulous: The number of pen | sioners on the 30th of June last was 537,944, tin- net increase in twelve I months having been 40,219. Cp to Sep tember 30 there had been filed 400,282 claims under the new disability act, in j addition to several hundred thousand j pending on other grounds before the I law was enacted. Of course all these ! are not to Vie set down to increase in the number of pensioners, since they are in j many cases merely for an enlargement lof pensions. But. thousands of them are isoto he credited. With a pension list 1 | approximating 530,000, and with a pros • | pect of adding immediately 120,000 ■ i soldiers and widows under a bill which r , • has been recommended by the commis- j • i sioner, and which has already passed I f the House, it is seen that the time is not 1 far off when the large sum annually de j voted by a grateful people to their pre 't j servers will have to be largely increased. r ' lii addition to the duty of devising the | I ways and means of paying off the J unquestioned indebtedness to the i . survivors of the Union army and their ! widows and orphans, if there is such a 1 thing as paying off such indebtedness in | I coin, there is the necessity for watch- | fulness in legislation which shall prevent the unworthy and undeserving from coming in as beneficiaries. * * Mr. Cleveland, who is at present in Washington, spent a quiet day at his i hotel yesterday. During the afternoon | he saw a few friends, hut was practically 1 free from the rush that set in when it be- I came known that be was in the city. | The ex-President has said hut little | about politics, and appears to he wholly I absorbed in his law practice. To-day lie ' i will argue before the Supreme Court, and , expects to conclude his business in Wash l ington and return to New York on a late I afternoon train. R. Practicing for tlie Klnte at Wilkcs-Barre on Saturday for $20,000 j damages for breach of contract. Mc- Cafferty, who was a brakeman, was in jured about two years njjo and shortly afterward commenced suit for damages. He was promised, if he would withdraw the suit, that he would he given a good position for the remainder of his life and a sufficient amount of money to keep him until he would be able to take charge of it. This agreement, he says, they never fulfilled, hence he brings the suit. WORHScfITTLE. Sure, Safe and Speedy. This medi cine wil! remove Worms, Kend or Alive, from llorses and Cattle.
