FREELAND, SEPTEMBER 11, 1891.
THE Democratic State Convention
is in session at Harrisburg to day.
The most prominent candidates men
tioned are Robert E. Wright, of Allen
town, for Auditor General, and A. L.
Tilden, of Erie, present Deputy Secre
tary of the Commonwealth, for State ,
Treasurer. Other names are men
tioned, but these are credited with
having the best prospects of being the
nominees. The platform, it is stated,
will he confined strictly to issues con
cerning the State, and if this policy is <
adhered to the Democrats have au un i '
doubted victory over Quay's ticket. |
SCIENCE has advanced another step,
if the report of the rain makers can
be relied upon. The recent experi
ments made by General Dyrenfurth,
who had charge of the testa, seem to
prove conclusively that it is possible
to obtain some control of the ele
ments. Rain has been produced at
any desired time and in any quantity
by a method of systematic explosions
of dynamite in the air. The next
tiling to be done will he the placing
of the wind under lock and key,
letting old Boreas out only at such
times as the weather man may decide. I
A GENERAL boom along the Republi- 1
can line has been commenced for Pow
derly's candidacy to the Constitution
al Convention. But there is no boom
for the convention. The G. O. P.
leaders will attend to the defeating of
that, yet they think by praising the
General Master Workman they can
hoodwink Knights and carry the State
with a sweep. They have overdone
the game this time, and Powderly or
any other labor mogul can't deliver
the workingmen's vote to the Repub
lican party. People are generally
judged by their company, and certain
so-called labor leaders are not in the
best just now.
ONE of the most unique schemes to I
to make the World's Fair a success
has just been started by a company
in Indiana. It consists of a plan to
remove to Chicago Jacob's famous
well, which is located in the Holy
Land. Representatives are to be sent
to Turkey, and they will try to gain
the Sultan's consent to the project.
If successful, the well will be brought
across the ocean and planted in a
conspicuous place on the exposition
grounds. Just how they will handle
this hole, which is nearly two hun
dred feet deep, has not been explained,
but we can rely upon American in
genuity to get it here, even if it must
be pulled up by the roots.
To DO justice to the Republican
bosses they deserve the thanks of
every honest voter in Luzerne County
for their defeat of Al. Darte's judicial
aspirations. A man of his calibre is
unfit to pose as an opponent of Judge
Lynch, and a machine candidate is
preferable at any time to a political
trickster who is incapable of perform
ing the duties of his present position.
Of course it was not on these grounds
that Darte was defeated, as they
showed by their nomination of Mc-
Cartney, who is still lower in the es
• timation of the people than Darte.
The public is spared the sight of a
contest between an eminent jurist
and a grasping politician, thanks to
the Republican machine.
UPON the reassembling of Parlia
ment there will be introduced in that
body some very radical measures,
which their authors think will ameli
orate the ills of the laboring element.
In a recent interview Mr. Gladstone
speaks upon the subject, and while he
does not commit himself or wish to be
understood as favoring all the pro
posed remedies, he announces that he
will give his unreserved support to
those bills which "will bring local
government to the door of the people
and give them freer access to the use
of land." The land question is mak
ing wonderful strides in England and
many of the brightest statesmen in
the Liberal party have pronounced in
favor of George's theories. It is safe
to state that before another decade
landlordism in that country will be
al)olished—and with it will go the
shackles of labor.
THEIIE art too many newspaper edi
tors who regard the candidates of
their respective parties as idols which
they are in duty bound to worship.
Papers which proclaim the worst
Democrat as good as the best Repub
lican, or vice versa, betray that lack
of independence so essential to every
publication. In referring to the New
York Gubernatorial contest the
,Speaker says that if the bosses nomi
nate one of their ilk in opposition to
the prospective Republican candidate,
Andrew G. White, it hopes to see
White win. So does the TRIBUNE.
When Democrats set up the worst
elements of their party against honest
Republicans, and pass by deserving
candidates, they cannot expect to be
upheld by the independent journals
of their party, even though the latter
are defenders of Democratic princi
ples. This applies to Luzerne County
as well as New York.
Another Attempt to Betray the Knlghte.
Certain events which have transpired
in political and labor circles of this State
since the adjournment of the legislature
are being viewed with anything but
pleasure by many people here. The
proceedings of that body were closely
watched by workingmen in this portion
of the State, and from the information
obtained through newspapers and other
sources they did not place a very high
estimate upon the work accomplished.
The treatment accorded certain bills in
troduced there is yet fresh in the mind
of the public, and as both branches were
overwhelmingly Republican that party
was held responsible by all fair-minded
critics for the measures passed or defeat
ed.
The first surprise came in the shape of
the report issued by the Knights of
Labor Legislative Committee, which was
signed by Messrs. Wright and Butler,
two members of that committee. This
report, besides being unsatisfactory in i
the matter of details, gave full credit to
the party in power for all favorable legis
lation passed, and yet exonerated the
same people from any responsibility tor
the defeat of equally desirable billls.
The TRIBUNE was favored with copies of
the report by the committee, and for
some time after receiving them we tried
to analyze and dissect their paradoxical
statements. We found the committee's
manifesto to be beyond our comprehen
sion and refrained from mentioning it in
any way, feeling positive that future
developments would bring to light the
unexplained portions of the report.
It was broadly hinted from different
quarters that the work of the committee
was one of the results of a deal with the 1
Republican party, and that certain al- I
leged labor leaders would profit by with- i
holding the censure deserved. This was 1
given additional credence by I'. F. Mc- ]
Caffrey, another member of the com- ]
mittee, who refused to sign the authoriz- i
ed report, and who recently issued a I
statement casting severe reflections upon
its authors. Following that came the
Republican .State Convention, which
nominated General Master Workman
Powderly as one of its delegates-at-large
to the Constitutional Convention. As
Powderly for some years past has not
claimed connection with any party nnd
wishes to pose above partisanship his
acceptance need not be commented upon.
It is probable that the Democrats to-day
may follow the example set by their !
opponents and place him upon their
ticket.
The real design of Quay's hirelings at
Ilarrisburg in recognizing labor by honor
ing (?) one of its representatives in this
manuer is becoming apparent. The boss
is anxious to recover from the set-back
received last fall, and expects to create
a favorable sentiment for the whole
ticket by nominating Powderly as a can
didate to a convention which, as every
prominent politician states, will not be
held. The part that Quay and his
lieutenants are playing in the game
occasions no surprise. A man with his
record would resort to any trick or crime,
however revolting, to accomplish his
design. But to Powderly and Iris com
panions in leadership the people have
reason to expect better things. That lie
would stoop and become the abettor of
Quay betrays a lack of honest dealing
with those who placed him and hold
him in his present position.
Yet among a large number of Knights
(or rather ex-Knights) in this region
there has existed for a year past a
lurking suspicion that things are not
what they seem at headquarters. They
were at first inclined and willing to over
look many little discrepancies and turn
a deaf ear to frequent rumors, but it is
becoming too evident to remain passive
any longer. Those who watch the drift
of affairs find that these leaders have
the sails of their ambitious boats set to
catch every passing breeze. The clique
controlling the order has, by their canter
ing from one issue to another, disgusted
workingmen everywhere, and in this
region at least we know that the lethargic
condition of the members is due to this
one cause. Knights of Labor are tired
of being jerked by the nose from hobby
to hobby, none of which will be of any
benefit to them. Let Powderly, Hayes,
Wright & Co. step down and out. They
are better fitted for political henchmen
than leaders of a great labor organiza
tion.
Negroes anil the P. O. 8. of A.
The refusal of the National Camp of
the Patriotic Order Sons of America last
week to strike out the word "white"
from the qualification clause in their
constitution has subjected the organiza
tion to much unfavorable comment.
This word was inserted at the Boston
convention in August, 1890, and the
delegates from Pennsvlvaniaand adjoin
ing States went to Philadelphia intend
ing to make a determined effort to have
it eliminated, thereby placing the Ameri
can negro upon an equal footing with his
white fellow-eitizens. The South and
West, however, were arrayed against
them, and as it requires a four-fifths
vote to change the constitution, they
were defeated, the ballot standing 60 to
34 in favor of the motion. In this
vicinity the question did not attract so
much attention as in other parts, princi
pally Philadelphia, where a camp com
posed wholly of negroeß exits, anil where
there are several colored men scattered
through the numerous branches of the
order.
The negroes of that city were relying
upon this last convention to recognize
their race, and others, too, regret very
much that a society professing American
ism should draw the color line in their
membership applications. The verdict
was received with general disappoint
ment in this State, and docs not place
the Sons in the very best light, coming,
as it does, so soon after a similar test in
the G. A. R., and in direct opposition to
the position taken by the veterans. The
fact that the society bears a patriotic
name, and never misses an opportunity
to show that it is intensely American,
invites public criticism more so than the
same action would in any other secret
organization. Following are a few com
ments on the question:
Phila. Prew.—The Sonß of America have
thown themselves unworthy of that name by
their refusal to obliterate the color lino In their
organization. It Is too late In the century to
bar colored men out of un organization pro
fessing to exist only for patriotic purposes.
Eantdn Erprsw.—The society goes so far as to
hoist a flag on every school house. Hence the
public are somewhat disappointed to hear that
the society excludes from membership a class
of citizens who are and have good reason for
being among the most patriotic in the land.
Phlln. Record.—The Sons of Amerlcn, who
ever they may be, have voted hi take theirs
without color. There may he a white man's
Republican party yet.
Phila. Inquirer.—Has the P. O. 8. of A. for
gotten that all the colored men now in this
country are native Americans?
Phll/l. Time*.—lt In idle to criticise tlio Patri
otic Sons of America for doing even what
everybody confesses to be grotesquely incon
sistent, when everybody else and every other
organization practically kicks the negro out
and refuses to have him on any terms what
ever, excepting in menial positions and when
his vote Is wanted for his party. The Patriotic
Sons of America have simply fallen Into the
general swim in dociding that they don't want
tlie negro in tltelr patriotic fellowship.

BASE IIAU NOTES.
Sunday's programme was not carried
out as originally intended, owing to a
threat of arrest made to the manager of
the Columbus Club if he played here on
that day. Great preparations had been
made by the local management for the
game, and Manager Ilanlon was very
much surprised on Friday evening to
receive a telegram from Mr. Schmelz
asking him to cancel the date, giving as
his reasons a portion of a letter sent to
him by John G. Davis, who signed him
self as secretary of the Freeland Law and
Order Society." Word was at once sent
back telling him to come on, that Davis'
letter was nothing more than a bluff,
and that the Freeland Association would
I guarantee against any proceedings in
volving Mr. .Schmelz 'or the Columbus
Club- The letter, however, had its desir
ed effect, and as Manager Schmelz did
not know that Davis and his colleagues
lacked the backbone necessary to carry
out their contemptible intimidation, he
feared to take the risk and again asked
to have the game cancelled, lie stated
that as Columbus was scheduled to play
in Philadelphia the next day he might
be delayed here in case there was trouble,
and would thereby possibly forfeit Mon
day's game. Mr. Ilanlon then allowed
the game to be declared off, but immedi
ately wired the Cuban Giants to come,
thus giving Davis A Co. an opportunity
to show whether they were in earnest or
not in their underhand threats. The
game, such as it was, took place, and so
far there has been nothing hoard of the
half-dozen people who would run this
town on the narrow-guage plan of 1794.
Davis proved to the satisfaction of the
public that he is no more of a man than
he was in the late strike, and for colossal
cowardice he should be placed on exlii
bition at the World's Fair. There is
little doubt but that the same clique of
poltroons worked the same methods
successfully with the Brooklyn Club and
the Franklinville Club of Philadelphia.
Rain was falling lieavily at 4 o'clock
when play was called. Freeland people
had not seen a game for two weeks, and
they did not propose letting any such
mere detail as the weather interfere
with their plans. The audience packed
the grand stand until that structure was
filled, and those who were out in the
wet hoisted umbrellas and made them
selves as comfortable as possible, giving
little heed to the miniature rivers which
ran down their backs. Everybody was ,
pretty well drenched, but a more good- j
natured crowd would be hard to find, j
Freeland went to the bat and lit onto
Paul's curves in a style which made the !
colored gentlemen dizzy. The thunder
boomed and the lightening danced ,
around the atmosphere, while Freeland's
sluggers kept time to the music of the
elements by pounding out singles,
doubles and triples in quick succession.
At 4.28 the side was retired with ten
runs to its credit. Three minutes later
the Giants took the field again, after
scoring once. The Freeland team had
been preparing for the Columbus Club i
and the players were dressed in their 1
best batting clothes. It is doubtfult if |
Sir Timothy or Mr. Knsie could have
checked their unquenchable thirst for
hits and runs. Their twenty-eight hits,
for a total of forty bases, netted them
thirty-seven runs, twenty-five of these
being earned. Paul left the box after
the third inning, Elsbury taking his
place. The latter fared no better, and
in the fifth inning, with two Freeland
men out, Umpire McNelis called the
game on account of darkness. The
Giants were unable to do anything with
Welch, and one of their two hits was of
the scratch order.

The following is an account of the !
longest game on record, taken from the !
Denver Newt: The game was played on
July 18 between the Grand Forks and
Fargo teams, at Devil's Lake, South \
Dakota. This game is not onlv the \
longest on record, but is still more note
worthy for the fact that not a run was
scored during the twenty-five innings. ,
and that several more innings might
have been played had not the umpire
called the game in order to enable tlm
teams to take a train. Ten double plays
were made in the game. Raymer,
pitcher for Fargo, threw 401 balls, and
(iibbs, of the Grand Forks team, -159
balls, making a total of 800 balls thrown
from pitcher to catcher. Sixteen hits
were made of (iibbs, and ten of Raymer.
The Fargo Club had four errors, and the
Grand Forks seven. Seventeen of the
Fargo players struck out, while twenty
of their opponents did the same. Thirty
one men were left on bases and it re
quired four hours and ten minutes to
play this remarkable game.
