    FREE LAND TRIBUNE.
VOL. V. No. 38.
ROUSING BIG MEETING.
SATURDAY EVENING'S RALLY WAS A
GREAT SUCCESS.
AddreHxes by Candidates Hiiies, Wright
and Iteilly, and Messrs. Garman, Mc-
Groarty and Lenahan—Big Turnout for
Democracy and Against a New County,
The voters of Freeland anil vicinity
turned out in large numbers on Saturday
evening, and at 8 o'clock the opera house
was crowded to the door. At least one
third of the audience was composed of
Republicans, and many of them seemed
to enjoy the meeting as much as the
Democrats, although the Grand Old
Party was handled without mercy by
several of the speakers.
After music by the St. Patrick's cor
net band, Win. F. Boyle, of the county
committee, opened the meeting, anil
John I). Hayes, Esq., was chosen as
chairman of the evening.
The first speaker was Hon. William
11. Ilines, of Wilkes-Barre, candidate
for congress. Ho took up the cry of the
Republican party, "Protection to Ameri
can labor," and showed to the audience
the hypocrisy of the men who use the
phrase to catch votes.
If they were sincere in their desire to
protect and advance the interests of the
American workmen, said Mr. Hines,
they could find none worthier than those
in Pennsylvania, and by reading the
records of the legislatures of this state
he proved that every measure asked for
by the industrial classes was killed or
mangled in the Republican house or the
Republican senate.
The speaker urged workingmen to cut
loose from a party that had betrayed
their interests so often, and to vote for
those who in the past has been true to
them in all their struggles.
J. Ridgway Wright, of Wilkes-Barre,
candidate for the state senate, was next
introduced. After a brief history of
how they do thihgs in the legislature,
and how it requires at least one term to
learn the "ropes" before a man can ob
tain anything for his constituents, he
opened on the new county question.
To those who wished to see Luzerne
divided he said they should vote for his
opponent, C. W. Kline, of Hazleton,
and to those who prefer to have it as it
is to vote for Wright. That is all, he
claimed, was in the senatorial contest,
"new county or no new county," and
he is, and, if elected, will oppose it in
every possible manner that he can. His
remarks brought forth rounds of ap
plause that proved Preeland will do its
duty in holding old Luzerne in the proud
position it has to-day.
Anthony Reilly, of Hazleton, candi
date for representative, then followed,
lie did not come prepared to make an
address and consequently spoke only a
short time. He said that, if elected, he
would represent the district faithfully
and honestly, without regard to any sec
tion or any faction.
lie had heard, he slated, that he
would be heavily cut on this side, but
did not know how true the rumor was.
He could not imagine why any Demo
crat should cut him, as he had been al
ways a faithful and consistent supporter
"of his party.
District Attorney John M. Gorman, of
Nanticoke, gave a sort of general review
of the political situation, interspersed
with anecdotes and witty sayings. He
also spoke of those county candidates
who could not be present, and had not
the least doubt of the success of the
ticket, from congressman down to sur
veyor, if the voters only go to the polls.
County Treasurer John S, McGroarty,
of Wilkes-Barre, confined his remarks
principally to the new county issue. He
was well acquainted with Mr. Kline, he
said, knew liim to be a perfect gentle
man, upright and honest, etc., but,
nevertheless, Mr. Kline deliberately in
tends to make every taxpayer in Free
land and vicinity go down into their
pockets and pay from five to ten times
the amount of county taxes they now
pay.
He made this charge without fear of
contradiction, and defied Mr. Kline, or
any of his party, or any of the boomers
of the new county, to come to Freeland
before election day and refute it.
Luzerne county, as it now stands,
ranks third in the state, being surpassed
only by Philadelphia and Allegheny,
still, its citizens pay lubs county taxes
than those living in any other county.
The county tax here is six mills, with
one-half a mill for sinking fund and one
half for bridge.
Taking a certain property in Freeland
borough as an illustration, which Mr.
McGroarty says is valued on the records
at IS ilkes-Barre at $4lO, the countv tax
which the owner pays is $2.91. If the
new county is formed the county tax on
the same identical proyerty will be
$17.28, and if anyone wishes to question
theße figures they are requested to call
on or address John S. McGroarty, Treas
urer's office, Wilkes-Barre, Pa.
The speaker's argument against the
scheme of the Hazleton politicians to
load us down with taxes for a new jail,
new court house, offices and fixtures, for
the conceited city of Hazleton, was an
eye-opener for the audience, but the
earnestness with which it was delivered
and the proofs that he possesses marked
it as a fact which none dare dispute.
Taxes, he said, are now high enough,
too high in fact, but it is not the fault of
old Luzerne, for we have the lowest
county tax in the state of Pennsylvania.
A vote for G. W. Kline for senator is a
vote for the new county, and the new
county means the increase of the tax
rate to its full extent.
The speaker vrns loudly applauded as
he concluded, and was followed by John
T. Lenahan, Ksq., of Wilkes-Barre, who
also received an ovation as he stepped
to the front of the stage. The address
of Mr. Lenahair was one of the finest
and most eloquent ever heard in the
town. Beginning at the formation of
the government he followed the course
of the Democratic party and the various
parties and factions that had risen
against it, and showed that the party of
Jefferson, Jackson and Cleveiand was at
all times the party of the people and the
defender of their rights and liberty.
Every proposed curtailment of free
dom was and is opposed by Democratic
leaders, and while the party remains
true to its principles, Mr. Lenahan de
clared, it will continue to try and break
down the barriers that now divide
Americans into the two classes created
by Republican policy and rule.
The mention of "tarifT reform" or
"Cleveland" elicited rounds of applause,
and during the evening the audience
quickly recognized every point made by
the speakers.
Ex-Senator Eckley B. Coxe, of Drif
ton, who was to have spoken, was de
tained by business engagements.
Work Ahead for Election OlHcers.
It is said that at some of the polling
places it may take upward of twenty
four hours to ollicially count the ballots
deposited under the Baker law. The
amount of work required to be gone
through with, it is claimed, makes the
labor of getting out the oflicial count not
only burdensome, but will delay the an
aouncement of the final result in large
districts when there is considerable eat
ing from five to seven hours after the
polls have closed on election day.
Section 23 of the law, it is held, pre
cludes the possibility of the election
officers getting anything to eat from the
time the polls close until the votes are
counted. That may tend to hasten the
work some, as under the old system the
election officers frequently spent an
hour eating supper before they began
counting.
Now they "must at once proceed to
count the votes" after the polls close, and
no one is allowed to "communicate with
any officer in any way after the polls
are closed." That part of the s ctfon,itis
claimed, prevents the meals being serv
ed to the election officers before finish
ing the count.
If Freeland's 425 registered voters, be
sides those who will vote on age, those
who came here since the registry was
made and those who failed to get regis
tered, if they all vote, the officers will
wish they had followed the suggestions
made by the TRIBUNE last summer and
petitioned the court for a division of the
borough. The full borough vote will
come nearer to 500 than to 400, and the
members of the board will find the job
is not a snap before or after the polls
close.
Opening the Hunting Season.
The real opening of the hunting sea
son takes place to-morrow, November 1,
and the numerous hunters of this vicin
ity are making ready for a big harvest
from now until the first of next January.
Rabbits are the principle game here
abouts, and those who are able to sur
vive the army of dogs, men and boys
who chase them are considered fortu
nate.
Hunters should remember that there
are a number of restrictions placed upon
them by the law, and the game clula in
tends to see that none of these restric
tions are violated.
Hunting on Sunday is punishable with
a fine of $25 for each offense. Hunting
of rabbits with a ferret costß $lO for
each rabbit so caught or killed. Hunt
ing pheasants during the night-time in
any manner calls for a penalty of $lO
for each violation.
There is every reason to believe that
rabbits will be more plentiful this year
than they have been in many previous
seasons. The best indication is the
number of rabbits seen in the roads
early in summer. Pheasants are abun
dant, too, and altogether it seems to he
a good year for game.
Died of Heart Disease.
Miss Phoebe Giles, who resided on
Front street with her sister Mrs. Na
thaniel Chestnut, died suddenly on
Thursday evening of heaat disease. Gu
the morning of that day she assisted in
washing and doing the housework, and
later on complained of feeling unwell.
In the afternoon she went to bed, but
her condition was not regarded serious
until that evening, when she sank rapid
ly and before medical assistance could
lie obtained she died.
The funeral took place yesterday af
ternoon and was attended by a large
number of friends and relatives. Ser
vices were held at the residence of her
sister and at the church of the Heavenly
Recruits, Rev. Brown, of Freeland, and
Rev. Tangle, of Auburn, Schuylkill
county, officiating.
Miss Giles w as aged 17 years, G months
and 24 days.
A Wilkes-Ham* Alderman Dead.
Wesley Johnson, one of the oldest
residents of the Wyoming valley, aged
73, died at Wilkes-Barre. Deceased was
a descendent of Rev. Jacob Johnson, the
first regularly settled minister west of
the Blue Mountains.
He was admitted to the Philadelphia
bar in 1840, and practiced in the United
States courts at Galveston, Texas, and
Marquett, Wis,, was United States in
spector of customs at Philadelphia from
1842 to 1845, and was a city alderman at
the time of his death.
Killed in the West.
Ate I egrrmw as received on Thursday
by I rank McGettrick, Front street, stat
ing that his son, Ihomas, had been kill
ed by an exp osion of gas in the mines
at ( arbondale, Colorado. No further
details of how tbe accident ocurred have
since been received by the family.
I Tbe deceased was buried on Friday at
| Carbondale. He was 37 years of age
: and has been away from here for about
] six years. He was tbe eldest of a family
of ten, and eight brothers and one sister,
besides his parents, remain.
Don't Like Piece Work.
The order coming to the Ashley shops
that the men would have to work piece
work is not received with good grace, as
they realize that it will be impossible
for them to make a fair day's wages un
der this system, as the shops do nothing
but repair work, and the machinery is
not in shape to do piece work.

JEDDO NEWS.
On Thursday evening a branch of the
Catholic Young Men's Literary Institute
of Freeland was organized in the school
house here by Rev. F. P. MeNally and
Jas. F. Sweeney. The society starts out
with bright prospects, twenty-six mem
bers having joined at the first meeting,
and there are quite a number ready to
join at the next. This the third literary
institute organized in this parish by
Father McNally, and the members say
that they will make the Freeland and
Upper Lehigh branches hustie to keep
up with the one here. The following

President—Daniel Marley.
Vice president—Domnick Timony.
Secretary—Peter Brislin.
Treasurer —Paul Dunleavy.
Critic—Rev. F. P. McNally.
Directors—Daniel Quigley, Charles
Gallagher and James McGill.
Meetings will be held every second
Thursday.
On Saturday evening the forty-fifth
anniversary birthday of James Smith
was celebrated here, and it was the
most jovial affair that has taken place
for sometime. The people of town as a
rule were all there and a representation
from many of the surrounding towns as
well. A la.ge delegation from Berwick,
with whom Mr. Smith spent many
pleasant days, were in attendance and
enjoyed themselves as they never did
before. Drinks and eatables were in
abundance. Singing and dancing was
also given a place, and as the merry
gathering left for their homes all wished
him a continuance of the event for years
to come.
William Renshaw, of Jeddo, and Miss j
Mary J. llorax, of Oakdale, were mar- !
ried at the home of the bride by Rev. I
E. M. Chilcoat, of Freeland, on Wed- :
nesday. J. T. Southall, of Mahanoy |
City, and Miss Lizzie Renshaw, of this }
place, a sißter of the groom, performed
the duties of bridesmaid and grooms
man. Quite a number of the friends of
the young couple attended the wedding
and wished them a long and happy life.
Anthony McNeils, better known as
"Tucker," who was employed en the
chain gang under this company, wont to I
Wilkes-Barre last week and secured em
ployment there. His smiling counten
ance will be missed by many this winter.
The Jeddo boys are making big pre
parations for the annual ball of the
Progressive Club at Freeland opera
house on Thanksgiving Eve. They
come out only once a year, but they doit:
up in proper style every time.
The new breaker near this place, No.
5 Pinkash, is expected to start about the I
15th prox. It is certainly one of the finest
in the region, having all the latest im
proved machinery, and will be able to
handle an enormous amount of coal
daily. It will give work to a large num
ber of men and boys, and eight blocks
of houses will be constructed in that
vicinity.
Willie McLean, of Summit Hill, was
visiting among friends here yesterday.
The scarcity of water here has pro
duced what might be call a fair illustra
tion of the Fall of Babylon, orthe "Con
fusion of Tongues." Since the water
became scarce there is only one place to
get water, the other hydrants having
been taken out to prevent waste. Here
the whole town people gather to get
water. Italians, Hungarians, Irish,
Germans and a few Polanders, and it is
amusing to see an Italian trying to
convince a German that it is her turn,
while the Hungarian and Irish women
are at it as to who is next anil the
l'olander trying to settle the dispute
between them, and all using anything
but English. Unless an arbitrator is
sent to deal it out to each on their turn
something is apt to drop on account of
the water famine here.
DRIFTON ITEMS.
Bob Gillespie had his face slighty
burned last week while doing some re
pairs around the gas engine.

terday in Silver Brook among friends.

The water supply is still holding out
very good, though it is not as good as it
I might be. The little stream running

dried completely. The one which emp
ties into the pond near the depot is also
! dry. In the memory of the oldest in
