    FREELAND TRIBUNE.
VOL. IV. No. 19.
REPUBLICAN TACTICS.
Despicable Measures to Secure
Votes for Bennett.
THREATENING A FOSTER SCHOOL
TEACHER WITH THE LOSS
OF IIIS SITUATION.
One of the many contemptible methods
by which the Republicans expect to elect
their candidate for Judge was made
known this week. The workers of the
party, driven to desperation by the over
whelming public sentiment in favor of
Lynch, have overstepped their limits
and made themselves amenable to the
law by a direct intimidation. Fearing
the effect of the Prohibition vote, the
nominee of that party for Prothonotary,
Thos. Evans, was recently approached
by a prominent Freeland Republican,
who requested him to resign and work
for Bennett. Mr. Evans stated that he
* , would do nothing of the kind, lie be
lieved he was assisting a just cause by
being a candidate on the Prohibition
ticket, and no inducement could make
him betray the trust his party had placed
in him. He was told that Bennett would
require every vote that could possibly
be obtained, and his unscrupulous temp
ter hinted that it would be to his advan
tage to comply with the request.
COWARDLY THREATS.
Upon asking for an explanation he
was informed that if he persisted in re
maining in the field and working for his
ticket he would find himself on the
streets looking for another situation after
the present school term ends. Mr.
Evans was now thoroughly aroused and
aware of his danger in opposing the Re
publican ticket, but his manhood did
not forsake him, and again he asked the
meaning of those insinuations. The tool
of the Republican machine hesitated a
moment, and then, throwing aside all
reserve, told him plainly that unless he
resigned from the Prohibition ticket and
assisted in electing Bennett he would
never again receive an appointment as
teacher from the Foster Township School
Board while that body is controlled by
the Republicans. It is unnecessary to
state that the proposal to play the role
of a traitor at this late day in the cam
paign was repugnant to a gentleman like
Thos. Evans, and the offer was declined.
LOW-LIFE POLITICS.
Mr. Evans is one of the oldest and
most respected teachers itr lower Lu
zerne. For eighteen years he has taught ;
in Foster Township, and no question as
to his political affiliations was ever he- ■ i
fore broached to him, although he has ;
been appointed year after year when
tire board was under control of the ; i
Democrats. It remained for the present
gang of bull-dozers, which is now ruling
the Republican party in this county, to
introduce a system of politics which
would make even school teachers their j
slaves and dependents. Yet this is hut !
one of the hundreds of schemes that are
now being manipulated to further Ben
nett's chances. There is no doubt but!
that the Freeland politician was obeying
orders from headquarters when be brav- j
ed the law with an intimidation of this
kind, but it cannot be stated positively
that he acted as the official spokesman
of the Foster .School Board in pointing
out the result.
FRIENDS INDIGNANT.
The numerous friends of Mr. Evans
were indignant when they learned of
the affair, and, while the number who I
sympathize with his political tendencies
is limited, all admire the courageous [
Btund taken by the candidate ill refusing
to withdraw from the Prohibition ticket.
He will gain many votes from disgusted
Republicans, several of whom will also
vote against Bennett in order to ad
' minister a deserved rebuke to the party
which has stooped beneath all respecta
bility.
PUT YOUR I'OOT ON BIGOTRY.
Thousands of secret circulars were dis
tributed this week by the Republicans, j
in which reflections are cast upon John j
Lynch because of his religion. This be
trays how desperate his opponents are, !
and nothing is too low for them to try
in their efforts to defeat him. The
introduction of religion in politics lias
never helped any party, and that circu
lar will be Bennett's death warrant.
Stand solid, Democrats, vote the ticket
straight, and should you ever become so
unfortunate as to sit in the Wilkes-Barre
(lock you will have a just Judge before
you.
SIXTICKETS TO BE VOTED.
Six tickets are to be voted as follows:
State, delegates-at-large, for or against
the convention, district delegates, county
and Judical. Under the head of the
first the elector will vote for candidates |
for Auditor General and State Treasurer;
under the second the delegates-at-large
to the constitutional convention; third,
for or against the constitutional conven
tion; fourth, for the district delegates to
the convention; fifth, for county officers;
sixth, for Judge.
COMPARE THEIR RECORDS.

Luzerne County bar L. H. Bennet

In twenty-three years of pructice at
the Luzerne County bar John Lynch

Vote for Lynch.
BENNETT'S PURITANICAL VIEWS.
Mr. Bennett is apparently as much op
posed to hotel and restaurant business as
Mr. Palmer is himself. While in Free-i
land a week or so ago canvassing for
votes he refused to go into the restaurant
of John Amend hut stood outside and
sent for him to come out. Mr. Amend
kindly did so and gave him the inter
view he wanted. Do hotel and restaurant
men want a Judge who iB so thoroughly
opposed to their business sitting on the
bench of this big county. We hope not.
Vote for fair play, generous treatment
and John Lynch.— Newsdealer.
M'CARTNEY'S FALSE PROMISES.
McCartney is promising the office of
county detective to every Torn, Dick and
Harry who will work for him. One of
those deluded by the General's oily
tongue is James McGlynn, head waiter
of the Exchange Hotel, Wilkes-Barre.
Mr. McGlynn is a Democrat and was in
Freeland on Sunday, telling his friends
here that in tiie event of McCartney's
election his appointment to the SISOO
position was a sure thing. He made no
secret of the fact that he was working
for Mae, and stated that a vote for the
latter would help him in getting the
promised plum. If any of Mr. Mc-
Glynn's friends think they will be doing
| him a good turn by voting for McCartney
they are sadly mistaken. McCartney has
| not the least idea of appointing him to
j any position. All the offices he can give
out will have to go to Republicans, and
the appointment of county detective is
already held, according to an iron-clad
agreement in case of McCartney's elec
tion, by the well-known Charley Hol
land. McGlynn has not got a ghost of a
chance, and if he sees lit to be duped by
a lying fraud like McCartney it is no
reason that his friends should do the
same. Vote for Garman.
PRESIDENT KAK TALKS.
The Master Workman of the Miners'
Union Wants Honest Government.
"I hope the Democratic party wins
Pennsylvania in its light for honest
government," said J. B. Rae, President
of the United Mine Workers of the
United States, who has been committed
to the Republican party for years. Mr.
Rae, however, unlike the leaders of his
party, is opposed to the culpable adminis
tration of its representatives in office,
lie was led t<> express tin* foregoing
sentiment when his attention was drawn
to an interview in a Pittsburg paper pur
porting to have come from him on the
political situation in Ohio.
Mr. Rae has repudiated many things
attributed to him in regard to Ohio poli
tics, and while talking on this subject
declared himself in unmistakable terms
(F§JL
N G e ,jL I
in regard to Governor Pattison's efforts ;
as the representative of the people and i
the Democratic party to mitigate the evil
done by the corrupt office-holders of the
Republican party.
lie said that the interviews with him
about Ohio polities had been manufac
tured, and that he has spoken only once !
about the situation. In the interview,
which was had by a Philadelphia llecortl
reporter, he continued:
"I am not taking any active part in
politics. I have been too busy with my
official duties. As far as I am concerned ;
Ohio matters have been left to take care '
of themselves. I think Governor Patti- .
son has done his duty, anil he should be
sincerely commended for it. Governor
Pattison's effort in behalf of honest
government deserves the support of all
good citizens. More than that, 1 believe
the work of clear 1 ng out the corruption
that has crept into State affairs is only
half done, but the work of last year will
be largely lost if the Democratic State
ticket is not elected in the interest of
good government. I hope the Demo
cratic party will win in Pennsylvania,
and if the opportunities have been im
proved it surely will."
DlHiiiiMHcrt the Suit.
The miners of the Wyoming region,
who are making a gallant light to secure
the semi-monthly pay law, met with a
rebuff at their first. attempt in the courts.
The warrant issued for the arrest of El
mer 11. Lawall, superintendent of the
Lehigh and Wilkes-Barre Coal Company,
for violation of this law, was served on
Friday and the ease heard before Alder
man Davidson. The prosecutor, John
J. Hughes, testified to his being one of
a committee appointed by the employes
of the company to present a petition re
questing the company to pay semi
month'.). The corporation's attorney !
claimed this did not imply a demand for
semi-monthly payments, as the law calls \
for, and the suit was dismissed 011 that ;
ground. Alderman Davidson, in settling i
the case, stated that "inasmuch as no |
demand had been made for wages due
and the company had not refused to 1
comply with the law," he was compelled
to adopt the above course.
They Can't Stop the Pole* Parading.
The Koscuisko Guards and St. Kasi
mer's Society attended the corner-stone |
laying of the Church of St. George at
Shenandoah on Sunday. They were ac- j
com pained by the Pioneer Drum Corps
of town. There were over 7000 men in
! the parade and double that number of ]
j visitors to the town. Special trains were
run from all portions of the coal region.
It was feared that trouble might arise,
but this was averted. When it was first ;
arranged to have a Sunday parade a
number of societies, among them the Jr. i
0. V. A. M. and the I'. O. S. of A., !
petitioned Councils not to permit any I
street music or other demonstration.
Councils passed an ordinance forbidding
a parade, and a great furor was at once I
raised. Lines were closely drawn, but j
the church people got the upper hand
and forced Councils to rescind its action. ■

FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, OCTOBER 29, 1891.
QUAY IN THE STEAL!
Senate Investigation Stopped to
Save the Thief.
THE DISCOVERY OF A DUE RILL
AMONG THE PAPERS OF THE
BROKEN KEYSTONE NATIONAL
RANK, AND NOW IN THE
POSSESSION OF ROR'T M.
YARDLEY, RECEIVER.
The sudden change of programme
adopted by the State Senate on Monday
created general surprise in all sections of
the State. "Why was it done?" was
the question asked everywhere, by Re
publicans and Democrats alike. The
answer has been found. Simply because
Attorney General Ilensel would on Tues
day have introduced evidence, backed
by a certificate of deposit, that in one
bulk alone United States Senator M. S.
Quay received $8,877 of the missing
money which was stolen from the State
Treasury.
The certificate of deposit, which the
Republican members of the Senate pre
vented the Attorney General from pre
senting, is as follows:
[FACE OF DRAFT.]
[ Endors e m ents . ]
EAHR
Be4V,r t . ri
j, ft] HARRA^iCasHie?.
This certificate was in the Senate
chamber in the possession of Bank Re
ceiver Yardley, but Attorney General
Hensel was not allowed to call him.
When John Bardsley went to jail, he
had collected the following moneys for
the commonwealth of Pennsylvania,
which he had not paid over:
Personal property tax, 1890$ 022,013.11
Personal property tax, 1891 289,232.90
License tax, 1890 367,604.18
License tax, 1891 1,497.54
Municipal loans tax, 1820.. 86,030.80
Total $1,306,378.59
About $1,000,000 of this had been in
his hand since August 1, 1890, and the
Auditor General and State Treasurer
had taken no legal steps to collect it, al
though it was their duty to do so on
October 1, 1890.
Most of the above money John Bards
ley had in the Keystone Bank.
The City of Philadelphia has also lost
about $600,000 in the same insitution.
None of the experts have yet been
able to discover and report where this
money went.
The due hill, above, shows that Bards
ley got $8,877 from the bank on Novem
ber 29, 1889, and sent it to Quay.
Quay collected the money through his
bank at Beaver; and when the certificate
was sent on the Keystone Bank paid it.
Where did this money come from?
Why did Bardsley send it to Quay?
On November 2,1889, Auditor General
McCamant sent the money for the
Magistrate's costs in Philadelphia to
Bardsley—over $30,000.
Bardsley deposited it in the Keystone
Bank, and on November 29. 1889, he
(Bardsley) paid $1575 to 11. N. Graffen,
a clerk to Auditor General McCamant.
On the same day he sent this $8877 to
Quay.
Of the persons whose names appear
| on above certificate as drawer, ]>ayee and
I endorser, G. A . Marsh is a fugitive.
' John Bardsley is in jail.
M. S. Quay is in charge of the Repub
lican .State Committee, trying to elect
Gregg ami Morrison to succeed McCam
ant and Boyer.
Now, reader, you have a pretty good
idea where some of the stolen money
has gone.
If you wish to aid in unearthing hun
dreds of similar cases vote for Tilden
and Wright, who will lay bare the
records of the Auditor General and State
Treasurer's offices.
When the Senate adjourned on last
; Friday it was well understood between
| the Attorney General and the Senate
j and counsel for Boyer and McCamant
that when the Senate met this week it
! would go straight on to hear the testi
| mony against McCamant. During the
I recess, however, it was developed that
the Republican Senators and politicians
did not desire Auditor General McCam
ant subjected to a public examination
before the election.
The attempt of his counsel last week
to head this off by introducing the testi
mony he had given on a previous occa
sion having been prevented, it was
deemed dangerous to have him go on
the stand this week. Accordingly, when
the Attorney General returned from his
engagement at Pittsburg on Tuesday he
found the examination of McCamant
had been headed off by an order of busi
ness fixed in his absence, lie protested
against this radical change in the Sen
ate's order of business, after he had been
informed of the order likely to be pur
sued and had arranged to assist in the
inquiry accordingly.
HAD TO SUBMIT.
Nevertheless as the Senate saw fit to
take this course he could only submit to
it, but in view of the change made he
desired to re-examine Boyer. Instantly
there were objections from the Republi
can side, and a long and bitter wrangle
followed, the Republican Senators insist
ing that before the Attorney General be
allowed to ask Boyer any further ques
tions their relevancy be submitted to his
counsel.
This he declined to do, but declared
that he wished to examine Boyer as to
the correctness of the tables he had pre
sented, as to the testimony given by him
before the investigating committee which
had been read and placed upon the
journal, and as to certain matters affect
ing both Boyer and McCamant which
had been withheld to be taken up in
connection with the McCamant case.
Another heated discussion arose over
these propositions.
lIENSKL EXPLAINS.
Mr. Honsel stated to the Senate that
notwithstanding the restrictions imposed
upon him he desired to examine Boyer
upon matters occuring prior to his taking
hold of the office of State Treasurer, but
subsequent to his election. A storm of
opposition again arose from the Republi
can side.
The Attorney General then stated
more distinctly that he desired to ask
Boyer whether or not he had any
knowledge of any arrangement made
after his election by which the balance
of money in the handsof John Bardsley,
belonging to the Commonwealth, was to
he permitted to remain there or whether
any consideration for its being permitted
to remain in the Keystone Bank was
paid by his knowledge or consent to
John Bardsley, M. S. Quay or to any
body else.
The Republican objections were re
newed. The Democratic Senators moved
that the restrictions placed on* the
examination be taken off. The Chair
ruled the question wholly out of order.
The Republican Senators refused to
permit the question to be asked and
sustained the Chair's ruling that it was
immaterial and irrelevant.
THAT AWKWARD CERTIFICATE.
Meantime it has leaked out that the
paper about which the Attorney General
desired to examine Boyer was the certi
ficate of deposit for $8,877 paid by the
Keystone Bank to Bardsley and by
Bardsley handed over to Quay on the
same day that Bardsley paid Graflin
$1,575, and three days after McCamant
had sent to Bardsley and Bardsley had
deposited in the Keystone Bank some
$31,000 costs for the Philadelphia Magis
trates. This is one of the Keystone Bank
papers which the Reeves commission, in
investigating there, has uncovered. How
many more they may be, or what their
significance and importance, there is at
present no positive public information,
the order adopted by the Senate to shut
everything off effectually preventing
further disclosures.

SCHOOLS OF FREELAND.
Number of Pupils Enrolled and
Their Teachers.
FIGURES WHICH SHOW WHERE A
REGIMENT OF SCHOLARS
CAN BE FOUND.
Some interesting statistics of the
schools of Freeland are presented to the j
readers of the TRIBUNE this week. In 1
the live buildings situated in the town j
there are 16 teachers and 882 pupils.
This includes two school districts of Fos
ter Township and the parochial school
at St. Ann's Church, in llazle Township,
besides those of the borough. It is
necessary to consider these as a part of
the town schools, because of the fact
that the pupils attending them reside j
in what is properly termed Freeland.
As can be seen by this report the bor
ough itself constitutes but a very small
portion of the town, but the outside
schools included are in every way a part
of it, excepting that they are under the
jurisdiction of others than the borough
authorities.
The enrollments at the Freeland
Schools, with names of teachers, etc.,
are as follows:

The custom of designating different
portions of the town by separate names,
viz: South lieberton, Woodside, Bir
vanton, Coxe Addition, Five Points, etc.,
has often confused persons not familiar
with Freeland, and has led many to be
lieve that each was a separate locality.
The principal cause of this arises from
the different portions of the town being
under two local governments. Its effect
has been felt severely by the schools.
Omitting the 665 pupils attending the
parochial school, there are 517 scholars
enrolled in the public schools, divided
among four buildings and under ten
teachers. These pupils, after passing
through the lower branches, are unable
to receive any further education than
that afforded by the grammar school of
their respective distri ts. This is an in
justice to the pupils and the taxpayers,
placing the former at a disadvantage
compared with the opportunities offered
by the schools in towns the size of Free
land.
The remedy lies in the annexation of
such portions of Foster Township as ad
join the borough and the subsequent
consolidation of the several school dis
tricts. A Central High School could
then be built, something which at pres
ent is impossible in any of the dis
tricts, but when undertaken by all could
be easily accomplished and Freeland's
educational facilities would be equal to
those of any town in the State. The
perfect graded s' stem of the parochial
school is an illustration of what can be
done by centralizing school jurisdiction.
The adoption of a similar plan by the
public senools. based upon lines to in
clude the pupils of all the districts,would
prove of inestimable benefit and he only
just and fair to those whom it concerns.
Slaughter of the Innocents.
From Monday next until New Year's
Day the law allows hunters to bag all
the rabbits their accurate aim can bring
down. It is stated that the woods in
tins vicinity is well supplied tins season
with the frisky little fellows, and the
local hunters have been patiently waiting
for tlie opportunity to decrease their
population. The Freeland (lame Pro
tective Club will rigidly enforce the
hunting laws, and especially that portion
of them relating to the use of ferrets in
killing or catching rabbits. Judging
from the number of amateur and pro
fessional sportsmen who are waiting,
with their packs of hounds, for November
2, it will be sure death to every one that
li'fts its head before January 1.
