FREELAND TRIBUNE.
VOL. V. No. 55.
NOT THE PT'OPEft MAN
THAT IS WHAT CLEVELAND SAYS
J OF EDWARD MURPHY.
Tins I'lT si dent-elect Declare* That the Se
| lection of Mr. Murpliy Doe* Not Indi
cate a Disposition to Choose a Man of
the Kind Needed at Present.
NEW YORK, Dec. 28.—That Mr. Cleve
land is opposed to the election of Edward
Murphy to the United States senate to suc
ceed Mr. Hiscock has been authoritatively
settled by a direct statement from the pres
ident-elect, who said in response to an in
quiry:
"It ought not to be necessary for me to
repeat for the public what I have so often
expressed to many gentlemen in private
conversation. Among these have been Mr.
Murphy himself, Mr. Croker and gentle
men who have been prominent in the party
. from every part of the state of New York.
* "It must not be forgotten, however, that
the party has a very hard task to perform
if we expect to keep the word that we have
passed to the people of the country. They
have given us a phenomenal majority, one
showing that they expect us to do much.
In doing this a great deal depends upon
the state of New York and its great me
tropolis.
Murpliy Not the Man.
"The interests of the state and the party
demand, it seems to me, the selection of a
senator who can not only defend the prin
ciples of our party, but who can originate
and promote policies that may be pre
sented for consideration in the senate. In
order to insure this, the senator from New
York should be a man not only experienced
in public affairs, but who lias a clear con
ception of the vital issues with which he
must deal during the next four years.
"Speaking frankly, it does not seem to
me that the selection of Mr. Murphy shows
a desire or intention of placing in the sen
•w ate a man of such a type. This first use of
our power would, I fear, cause much dis
appointment, not only in New York, but in
the country. This the party ought not to
be called upon to face when it is considered
how much there is to do, and what serious
difficulties have to be surmounted before
it can be done."

Bishop O'Hara's Presents.
The presents received by Right Rev.
William O'Hara, on the occasion of his
golden and silver jubilee, are as nu
merous as they are valuable, and they
are all highly prized by the grateful
receiver, says the Scran ton Truth.
The most valuable is the check for
$15,000, which is handsomely engrossed
by Mr. Costello and placed in a rich
gold frame. About the check are the
names of the priests of the diocese by
whom it was presented, and at the bot
tom is a gilt episcopal seal. The work
stands on an easel in the front parlor. It
is a perfect piece of work and the work
of a master hand.
The bishop's old congregation at St.
Patrick's church, Philadelphia, pre
sented him with a beautiful chalice of
solid gold. It is made in a beautiful
design and under the base is a cross of
diamonds. It cost $1,300 and is a gen
erous testimonial of the esteem in which
the bishop is yet held after twenty-five
years in the parish he last stayed as a
priest.
Archbishop Ryan gave him a set of
pontificals, live volumes, in superb bind
ing, and Charles G'Neil,of Philadelphia,
made him a present of a set of Brevia
ries.
The Sisters of Christian Charity of the
Mallinkrodt convent, Wilkes-Barre, gave
him also a mitre beautifully executed.
The Sisters of Mercy of llazleton sent
the bishop a large crucifix, and the Sis
ters of Mercy of Wilkes-Barre presented
him with a beautiful cape.
The pupils of St. Ann's academy, of
Wilkes-Barre, sent him a handsomely
engrossed testimonial in a frame. It is
done in silver and gold and is very cred
itable work.
A large folio volume bound in red
leather, and with gilt edges was sent by
St. Nicholas' boys' school and St. Ann's
school for girls of Wilkes-Barre.
There are other presents and testimo
nials which the bishop received which
he places high value upon, but which
the donors modestly desire to have their
names withheld and from others who
have not sent in their names. Of all
these presents the bishop feels justly
proud and will hold the donors in grate
ful remembrance.
A New .Slavonian Organization.
Freeland Slavonian Union is the title
of a new organization that has just been
formed here by the Slavonian residents
of this section. The object of the new
society is to bring the members of the
different societies of that nationality
more closely together and to perfect
plans whereby they can render one
another greater assistance than is done
at present.
There are a number of these societies
in and around Freeland, and by induc
ing all to connect themselves with the
Union the organizers hope to be able to
increase the sick and death benefits of
each society. Individuals may belong
to whatever society they deem best, as
the Union is only a union of societies.
The movement was started by St.
John's Society, assisted by St. Peter and
Paul's, and it is believed the Yerhovay
and National Slavonians will also join.
The death benefits now paid by nearly
all these societies is SSO. It is proposed
to increase this to SSOO, and to increase
the sick benefits also.
Christina* ut the IfoHpital.
A reporter wended his way to the
llazleton hospital on Monday afternoon
to ascertain, if possible, how the inmates
celebrated Christmas day. He was met
at the door by Mr. Oliver Sherwood, the
day nurse, who kindly consented to con
duct him through the building.
The first patient that the scribe's at
tention was directed to, was little Condy
Gallagher, of Freeland, who was reclin
ing in an easy chair in the waiting room,
and who has been at the hospital since
May 24, receiving treatment for an in
jury to his back.
The little fellow is so far recovered
that he is able to walk again. The lad,
who is really the pet of the hospital,
was very happy and greeted us with a
"how-do-you-do."
lie was the recipient of many beauti
ful presents, among them a nice new
suit with which he was much delighted,
it being his first pair of pants. — Standard.

Tlie""Poor Convention.
The Democratic poor district committee
met at Weatherly on Monday afternoon
to make preparations for the convention
to nominate candidates for director ami
auditor. The new ballot law makes it
necessary to nominate earlier than
heretofore, and to conform with the
requirements of the law it was decided
to hold the elections on Saturday at the
regular polling places, between 4 and 7
p. m.
The conventions for the election of
conferees to the general convention will
he held at llazleton, Weatherly and
Mauch Chunk on Tuesday morning and
the convention to nominate the candi
dates will be held in Concordia hall,
llazleton, at 2 p. m. the same day.
The candidate for poor director must
be from the Luzerne district, and the
candidate for poor auditor from the
middle district, or that portion of Carbon
county composed of Banks, Lehigh and
and Luasanne townships and Weatherly
borough.
The chairman's notice regarding the
election of delegates and conventions
will be found on the second page.
Jos. P. McDonald, of Freeland, is
making a spirited fight for the nomina
tion of poor director. There is no ques
tion hut that be would poll a large vote
if his name is placed on the ticket. He
has been a bard worker for the party all
bis life, and has on several occasions
given both time and money to help
local and general tickets.
He has many friends among the Re
publicans, and the convention on Tues
day will have a hard time to find a man
to nominate who is better qualified for
the position or more likely to be elected.

park on Monday afternoon between

Oliver succeeded in killing eleven,
while the Carbon county shooter brought
down but eight. Quite a lot of money
changed hands during the shooting and
after the match.
This was the second time for these
contestants to meet, and as each has
now one match won, it is likely another
will be arranged soon to decide which is
the better shooter.
Christina* at the Jail.
Warden Haines, of the county jail,
served his large number of boarders with

hind the bars, the meal was much en
joyed.
The menu was: Roast pork, potatoes
and cabbage, onions, rheubarb, coffee
with milk and sugar, and mince pie for
desert. The meal was relished by the
prisoners who highly complimented the
warden for his kindness.
The Pioneer Bull.
Tomorrow evening St. Ann's Pioneer
