FREELAND, DECEMBER 4, 18' M).
THE Wilkes Barre Leader is nu
tlioiitv for the statement that "the
ri<*ht of George W. Shonl; to sit. in
Congress as the Representative of the
Twelfth District will he contested and
that steps are being taken at present
to that end." Those who have been
telling bow they shook his hand in
Freeland and received a live dollar
bill in the other will now have a
chance to explain how the thing was
done.
CANDIDATES are beginning to bob up
for the Poor Directorship of the Mid
dle Coal Field Poor District. As the
nominees must come from the Carbon
county end of the district, the people
of that section ought to be allowed to
name their choice, and we, of this
end, ought simply to ratify their
choice whoever he may he. But, if
such disgraceful methods are used by
the Democratic Statesmen from the
lower end in selecting their nominees
as was used last spring, we have
very little hopes of his election. We .
may have something to say on this
subject later on.
Is our issue of Inst week we staled
that an effort would be made by the
business men of town to induce coun
cil to appropriate something towards
the payment of the two night watah- i
men. But as there was 110 meeting
of the council and none of the busi
ness men put iu au appearance, we
are to suppose that the thing lias
fallen through The people of the
borough may realize the position they
are placed in some day, to find that
through their carelessness iu this
matter they may bo made to lose
thousands. Let a meeting of busi
ness men be had and discuss tlie
situation among themselves as to the
best way to proceed.
REPRESENTATIVE LEDGE'S Irauiigra
tion bill provides, among other things,
that no foreigner shall be permitted to
laud in this country unless be can pro
duce a certificate that lie is a person
of good character, that he is not hos
tile to the United States laws, can
read and write, and read the Consti
tution of the United States in English
or in his own language. He must al- j
so show that he is capable of earning
a living, is sound mentally and physi
cally, and lias not been assisted to
emigrate by any benevolent institu
tion. Such a ineasuro would be as
hostile to immigration as the Mc-
Kinley act is to trade. There is a
sound political reason why initni
grants who cannot read and write
should ho excluded from the suffrage
until they shall have qualified them
selves. This rule should apply to j
ignorant natives as well as to iruuii J
grants. But the Lodge bill is pro
posing to apply educational aud politi
cal as well as physical aud moral tests
to all persons desiring to immigrate
to this country is a violent expression
of the prejudice and bigotry of Na
tivism. Although the author of
the Force bill was nearly defeated at
the lute election, it was not by igno
rant naturalized citizens, but by in
telligent natives of Massachusetts,
and Republicans at that.—J'hihiihl
phiii Record.
SOME months ago a joint meeting of
the Miners' Examining Boards of the
different districts was held at Hazle
ton, at which a committee was ap
pointed to prepare amendments to the
law governing such hoards passed at
the last session of the Legislature and
have it submitted to that body at its
next session; but so far 110 report has
been made of the actions of the com
mittee. That some amendments are
needed, is evident to any person who
will take the trouble to examine into
the methods used by some busses in
this neighborhood to evade the law
A miner comes and gets work, who is
the holder of a certificate, and is given
a breast or other contract work, and
another man (or probably two)
is sent with him, who has not received
a certificate, and is given a share of
the work, but is told that ho has as
much to do with the contract as the
certified miner, but he must not mine
coal, or handle powder, he must
simply load coal; aud when pay duv
comes around he is us well off us the
miner, with 110 trouble 011 liis mind.
Surely this is not fair to the man
who by his experience, skill and long
service as a miner entitles him to a
certificate. Again we have men act.

and who have the utmost contempt

under them know it. Let the com

WASHINGTON, Dec. I? , 18iM).
Congress resumed business at the old
stand yesterday and the session is likely
>j to le fully as interesting, if not as ex
| citing and important, as the one that
closed in October. The comparatively
small number of members of the House
now in the city seems to indicate that
those who predicted the Republicans
would have a hard time to keep a qno
j rum of their own here through the session
were correct. There are not many men
in the House who have incomes for
v Inch they are not obliged to work, and
while serving in Congress most of these
men have more or less seriously negleet-
I ed their regular business or profession.
Those of them who were defeated in the
I recent elections will naturally he dispos- j
ed to begin taking up the loose ends of
their private affairs as soon as possible,
i so that their incomes will not he too
1 heavily scaled downed when their Con
gressional salaries ecase on the 4th of
March next. It will take pretty strong
pressure to keep these non-elect in
Washington with much regularity this
winter, and doubtless not a few of them
will think it not worth while to come
here at all. That this should he tin
ease will not show a very high sense o!
duty nor of honor on the part of tin
defeated members, hut the country will
not suffer by their dereliction if the Re
publican majority in the I/nuse is thcrc
hy prevented from rushing through soim- i
of the unwise legislation which then
programme calls for.
The published utterances of a ntimhei
of Democratic members of Congress who
have returned to town during the week
indicate that tin 4 right spirit prevails
among t hem as to the policy w liich should
he pursued in the Congress.
As Mr. Bynum said, the Republican
minority should he treated with fairness
and liberality, and the bitterness which
has been engendered in the present (''in
gress should not he carried over into tin
next; and if Mr. By mini feels this way
others who have suffered from Speaker
Reed's tyranny can assuredly afford to
he equally forgiving. The overwhelm
ing Democratic victory was without doubi i
due in some degree to the revolutionary I
proceedings of the Republican majority
during the late session of Congress, and
the Democrats would make a fatal mis
take if in any spirit of revenge they
should follow the had example of the !
Republicans when they return to power.
The Republicans have had a severe pen- |
ance imposed upon them for their dots- i
perate recklessness and folly, and all 1
that will he required of the Democrats '
will be to see that the penitents expiate
their sins in due form and are abundantly
supplied with sackcloth and ashes.
When Representative Rrcckenridge,
of Arkansas, was unseated during the
last session, a vacancy was created in
the Ways and Means Committee which
lias not yet been lilled. (treat pressure
was brought to bear upon Speaker Reed
by numerous aspirants for the position,
hut he steadily refused to make the ap
pointment. The Speaker probably fore
saw Mr. Rrechenridge's speedy return to
Cong-ess, and may restore hini to the
1 place which lie occupied for so many
years.
At least a dozen Democratic statesmen
will to-day begin regular training in public
for the Speakership of the Ffty-second
Congress. Their trial performances for
the next three months will he watched
1 with keen interest by the galleries and
by the country, and it is safe to say that
the tinal race will not he won bv the
1 man who develops traits most nearly re
sembling those of the present Speaker.

Indications are strong that silver
mounted legislation will not be unpopu
lar in the near future. It.
In the Dark.
Dr. Hawthorn was called on to per
form a wedding ceremony recently
under decidedly romantic circum
stances says the* Atlanta Constitution.
Soon after dark a young' gentleman'
and lady ascended the steps lead
ing to the front door of the Talniage
house and rang the hell. Mrs. Tal- j
mage was standing close by and an- 1
swered the summons herself. The
young mail explained that he was
j anxious to see Dr. Hawthorne on pri
vate business and refust-d an invitation
to enter the parlor. The young lady
sank into a chair near the door, where
the darkness was impenetrable, and re
mained looking at the wall of the house
until Dr. Hawthorne appeared.
\\ lien he came the gentleman hand
ed him a paper and said he wanted to
get married immediately. Dr. Haw
thorne took the document to the light
and found that it was a license, per
mitting J. M. Swift ionium Miss.Josie
Alagbee.
Seeing that all I lie requirements of
the law had been complied with, Dr.
Hawthorne asked the young gentleman
to bring his bride into* the parlor and
have I lie ceremony performed there.
The lady however, objected strongly
to this plan. Through the open win
j (low she could see several ladies, who
had heard in some mysterious way that
a young couple were to he married
and who were anxious to see the cere
mony.
The groom explained that they had
been traveling all day and if Dr. Haw
thorn could make it convenient they '
would prefer being united without enter
ing the house.
Dr. Hawthorne has performed the
wedding ceremony so freqiieiilli that
he requires no liglit to go through the
formula. The lady rose from the seat
in the dark corner, and. still standing
where her features could not he clearly
seen, she held out her hand. It was
firmly clasped iu that of the groom ami
a few minutes later she was .Sirs. Swift.
1 hen the couple went down the stairs,
and arm in arm. they walked toward
ltroad^street and disappeared in the
direction from which they came.
; And now a report conies that the
Hart ( reek district in West Virginia is
haunted by t||. ghosts of the two lucin
bers of the MeCov faction who were
lynched there recently. Tin upb
ore said to appear every third night,
when the entire sanguinary scene is re
enacted bv shadowy forms. A num
ber of residents of the neighborhood
assert that they have been involuntary
witnesses to a part of the proceedings.
Miss Ysabel Echcgurcn. daughter of
the Spanish Consul at Ma/atlau, ami
the richest heiress on the Dacitie coast
is just 17, ami sin 4 is pretty, modest,
and unpretending, She has a well
matured mind, considering her youth,
reads a great deal, ami naturally is a
line conversationalist, earing more for
the profoutider discussions than for the
frothy nothings which pass in a hall
room or a tete-a-tete. Her figure is
slight ami willowy, her complexion of
iL, dazzling color that marks the
I Castihaii, while her eyes are dark,
melting, and soulful. The melancholy
information is added that her mother 1
lias already selected her future lius- '
baud from among the young people of
i her native province
Strale.gy with Husbands.
The Indian squaw is the slave of her
brave, says Maude Howe. She works
for him and serves him even as his
horse or his dog work for him: but un
like the dog or horse, that Indian
woman is possessed of one of the
strongest human instincts—the love of
power. The only voice she can have
in the community, her very supremacy
in her own wigwam, is through her iii
lluenre over i lie men of the family.
This being the case she must be a very
remarkable squaw who does not llaiter.
wheedle, and cajole her husband, ami
b\ every means secure as strong a hold
as posssible o\ er liini.
We all know households to-day
where these wigwam tactics are pur
sued. The master is irascible, oxer
hearing, ami obstinate. The wife is
his equal in many respects ami in some
his superior, in self-control and a good
temper partieiilarly so. For the peace |
of the household it is impossible to di
rectly oppose the dicta of the master,
who is of 1 ii sort that wants to know
, best about all domestic matters, the
discipliueof the nursery and tie kitchen
is wcH as the routine of the stable, or
the ordering of the wine-cellar.
Now, iu the mailers pertaining to
kitchen ami nursery, the wife knows
that her husband's ideas are wrong
and that her own are right, and by a
constant series of small deceptions the
tyrant is led to believe that his meas
ures are earned out. whereas, iu point
)f fact, they arc quite properly ignored.
I do not say the wife is blameless, but j
[say the fault lies with the husband, !
.v I lose tiresome tyranny forces his wife
Tito subterfuges for the sake of the i
general good. There is a largo class
