FREELAND TRIBUNE. VOL. V. No. 81. FROM SUBURBAN POINTS. LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE OF NEIGHBORING TOWNS. Highland Wants Hotter Streets Through the Town—A Few New County Para graph from Hrifton, and a Freeland Special on the Same Subject. Special and regular correspondence from the surrounding towns is solicited by the TRIBUNE. All writers will please send their names to this office with com munications intended for publication, in order that the editor may know from whom the correspondence comes. HIGHLAND DOTS. We always take pride in speaking of this place and its residents and it gives us pleasure to note the needed improve ments on the houses that are being i made at present, but when we compare our streets with those of other towns we're not in it. The large piles of ashes or heaps of coal near the gate are safe land-marks for many to find their homes on a dark night, while others know the house by a few slabs standing on their ends which was at one time meant for a fence. If the company would only give a little attention to this when the houses are finished, and give us streets as good as in oiher villages, we would have the pleasure of living in the finest town in the region. Mrs. Michael Murrin is slowly recover ing from a severe illness. James Kendrick removed his family from here to Rock Glen last week. Frank Winters, who was severely in jured by being caught between cars on the railroad at this place about a month ago, was discharged from the- hospital on Monday. Michael Munday removed his family on Tuesday to Freeland, where he has secured a position. Edw. Fisher has a young son lying yery sick for several days past. Mrs. Williams is still lying very low and unless a change for the better comes she cannot last many days longer. A. E. Seitz and wife spent Sunday at Sandy Sun among friends. Charles Brease and wife, of Hazleton, were here on Sunday among friends. John McGill returned to Bloomshurg on Monday to resume his studies. Mrs. Thomas Jones is on the sick list this week. If the weather continues to improve preparations will soon be made to work the stripping again. Some of the neces sary machinery has already arrived, and the material with which the rest is done ilalways at hand. The benefit fund movement is on a * standstill on account of Mi. Markle's absence. It is said he will not return for several weeks yet. George Harvey moved his family from South Heberton to this place on Monday. The tramps who alight here from the passing trains for the past week are of the kind we do not relia'A They are the toughest lookir pecimens we have seen during the wit r, and all are badly in need of a litti® water and soap with a suit of clothes thrown in. Subscribers can procure their papers at 1 p. m. every Monday and Thursday at the office at No. 1 breaker. Those living re who are now on the Freeland and Jeddo lists will he changed to Highland after today, unless they prefer to get their mail at the former place. In the latter case they will please notify the TRIBUNE to make no change. DRIFTON ITEMS. -4 The admirers of the new county scheme in this locality are very much pleased at the progress which is being made with the hill in the legislature. The usual amount of talk and bluster which accompanies this good feeling, as is generally the case in moments of pleasure, is conspiciously absent, and it is claimed that on' account of certain conditions having been imposed upon those who favor the scheme, it is not wise to comment on the question, and that silence is considered a jewel. In other words, it is said, the gag has applied so effectually that the stoutest hearts quail at the thoughts of removing it. To bo consigned to martrydom in this manner, with as much intelligence as the .average man possesses and in a free country, is not a very pleasant thing to behold. But we always had several martyrs for some cause or other, and when the whole truth was found out some were only suffering for some fancied griev ance, not for the public's sake, for we have but few of that description in this town. Even under the coercion act, as some term it, the question is occasionally debate-l in a cautious manner, hut be fore it reaches the real point, the foun dation of its whole structure—the West Hazleton Land Company's boom to sell lots—it is side-tracked. However, should the new county ever become a reality, the clamor for office that will go up from the martvrs of Drifton will be long, loud and terrible. The collieries here stopped at noon yesterday owing to a scarcity of rail road cars. It is reported that there will he no more work here this week after today. * Yesterday was pay day here and the majority of our people are smiling. John Collins is lying very sick at his residence in No. 2. Miss May Probst, who has been in New York city for several months, is.at home spending a few days with her parents. Virginia Yannos, a miner in No. 1 slope, was sUahtlv injured last week by r. til falling < ii him I w i rep.irtn i last night that John L DivU. a!'• inner resident f Drifton, bui who ha* been living at Plymouth V" some time past, died at the latter place on Tuesday. The remains will be interred at Jeanesville tomorrow after noon. Frank Brogan, of Beaver Meadow, spent a few hours in town last week. Frank Probst resigned his position at the office to accept another on the D. S. & S. ECKLEY CLIPPINGS. The residents of town received quite a shock on Sunday evening about 9.30 o'clok. A number of Poles residing on Main street, it is said, procured a stick of dualin powder and placed it in an empty beer keg. It was then touched off, and the keg was blown to pieces and a part of it went through one of the neighbor's window sashes, completely destroying it. If such a thing was to happen one of these people the report of the explosion would not be gone be fore they would be knocking at one of the bosses' doors demanding an investi gation. But of course when they are the instigators of any depredation noth ing is heard of it from headquarters—for they are the people nowadays and must be handled with care. Miss Bridget Malonev is circulating among Weatnerly friends. John Ileeney and Mrs. Patrick and Conday McDermott left on Monday for Troy, N. Y„ to attend the funeral of their sister, who died there on Saturday. John Campbell attended the funeral of the late James Dnffy at Hazleton on Monday. It is rumored that a fair will be opened at the Presbyterian church in the near future. Thomas Boles is on the sick list for the past week. John Null will remove his household effects to Reading on Saturday. Miss Annie Mcllugh spent the fore part of the week among Silver Brook friends. John, the youngest son of Frank Mc llugh, is lying seriously ill. Everything is arranged for a social hop on Easter Monday—only waiting for the night to come. Eight more of our favorites arrived in town with their hags and baggage on Friday, accompanied by one female. Michael Gallagher is on a visit to New York friends. Miss Bridget Carey, of Freeland, is visiting relatives here. Patrick Gibbons, of Lattimer, spent Sunday in town. Misses Annie and Carrie Trimble spent Sunday among Freeland friends. James Gibbons resumed work on Mon day after an illness of two weeks. Barney Morris was injured at No. 10 slope last week while in the act of bar ing down coal. Dennis Mcllugh, of Blackwood, spent Sunday here with his brother Michael. Rev. Father Brehony was unable to read mass on Sunday, owing to illness. Mrs. Mary llowey, of Hazleton is visiting the Aubrey family. The young ladies of Big Bug Run had quite a time Monday evening at a carpet rag party. MARY ANN. A FEW STRAIGHT FACTS. FREELAND, March 29, 1893. EDITOR TRIBUNE. —While not claiming that the "new county" is properly an issue, yet I would like to enter my pro test against the assumption of a writer in the Plain Speaker to the effect "that the people of the North Side are in favor of such legislation." I venture the pre diction that not one citizen in twenty on this side see any virtue in the proposed scheme. And as far as increased taxes are concerned, no sane man can deny that the burden will be enormously in creased. The stupidity of the man who j would claim that the increased burden j will be only for a short period—a few years for instance—is only equalled by his igornance of law, lawyers, schemers and office-holders. It is a matter of record that within the proposed limits of the "new county" the list of cases to claim the attention of a court is wonderfully small—only four teen cases coming from this territory during 1892. Does this show the "ab solute necessity" of a court in Hazleton and an army of court officials to fatten and feed at the public crib? The claim that the courts of old Lu zerne are pressed and crowded with cases for trial is used only among people who know little of court proceedings. The machinery of justice in this county is more than equal to the demand that is being made, as witnessed the greater part of the past year, when the courts adjourned on different occasions for lack of work to perform. To claim that Freeland or the sur rounding towns will be benefited by Ilaz leton's prosperity is to display the dens est kind of ignorance; and to m.tke the further claim that the difference in ex pense of trayel, witness fees, etc., would be a saving to our people is the essence of imbecility, pure and simple. How many hundred are there in this locality who have never been to Wilkes- Barre in a matter of law? How many men are there here who from early youth to ripe old age have had any legal business with courts, lawyers or jails? It is a truth that only needs mention to become apparent to the dullest brain that more than nine-tenths of our people have no business with courts of law and no interest in them beyond their share of the debt they carry. And it is notor ! ions that the wider the distance between | the courts and the people the better the | people live and the less they become I entangled in legal strife. I Further, the bringing of a court to | Hazleton and a legal body to dispense | the law (not always justice) will be the j means of creating work for these officials and the result will he far from encourag ing Mr. Editor, the miners and others who ii' w feel the grasp of the tax-gather er will he sadly pinched when the real estate speculators of Hazleton succeed j in fastening the "new county" on us, if I they ever should. "X." FREELAND, LUZERNE COUNTY, PA., MARCH 30, 1893. SEVEN INSTEAD OF SIX. Luzerne Will Gain a Representative If the Apportionment Ilill Is Paused. The census of 1890 entitled Luzerne to an additional legislative district and this will be given it if the bill now before the legislature is passed. The districts are arranged as follows: First—City of Wilkes-Barre. Second—Dallas, Exeter, Forty Fort, Luzerne, New Columbus, Shickshinny, West Pittston, Wyoming and Dallas boroughs, and Exeter, Franklin, Fair mount, Hunlock, Huntington, Jackson, Kingston, Lake, Lehman, Ross and Union townships. - Third—Dorranceton, Kingston, Ed wardsville and Plymouth boroughs and Plymouth township. Fourth—Freeland borough, Hazleton city, Jeddo borough, West Hazleton bor ough and Foster ami Hazle townships. Fifth—Avoca, Hughestown, Laflin, Pittston and Yatesville boroughs, and Pittston, Jenkins and Marcy townships. Sixth —Laurel Run, Miners' Mills, Parsons, Plains and White Haven bor oughs, and Bear Creek, Black Creek, Buck, Butler, Denison, Dorrance, Fair view, Nescopeck, Plains, Salem, Sugar loaf, Wilkes-Barre and Wright town ships. Seventh —Ashley, Nanticokeand Sugar Notch boroughs, and Conynham, Han over, Hollenback, Newport and Slocum townships. In the new apportionment it will be seen that the first and fourth districts are unchanged. All the others are cut down or enlarged according to whatever way it will best serve the purposes of the Republican party. The sixth, es pecially, is the finest specimen of gerry mandering that could be made. Com mencing by the Susquehanna river at Plains township, twelve or fifteen miles above Wilkes-Barre, the boundary line goes southeast until it reaches the Lacka wanna line, then south along the Monroe and Carbon lines. After taking in White Haven it passes through the | Oley valley, along the northern bound ary of the fourth district, and around j into Butler. It takes in Sugarloaf and Bear Creek, runs along the Schuylkill | and Columbia county lines, and crosses the Susquehanna again at Nescopeck, then up into the wilds of Salem town- j - ship. I By following the boundaries of the | new sixth district on a Luzerne county j map the injustice of this apportionment can he seen at a glance. It touches Rix I different counties and also each of the six other districts in this county. Four Mining Institutes. The house committee on appropria- ! 1 tions will soon begin reporting bills. ! Among those said to-be favored is the | bill to appropriate $10(1,090 for the erec tion of four mining institutions in the anthracite regions to impart elementary mining instruction to men about til mines. As Freeland has an institute of this description already started it would not I be out of place to make application to i the legislature to erect one of the build- j ' ings here. There is no better location j in the anthracite coal fields than Free- I land for a state mining institute, and should the bill be reported favorably the ' people of town can depend upon Rep- | 1 resentative Jeffrey to present Freehand's claims in a proper light. Heath of Mrs. Hoyle. A few minutes after 5 o'clock on Tues day afternoon Bridget, the wife of James K. Boyle, died at her residence on Centre street. She had been ill for the | < past few months, and on Monday an ! operation was performed in the hopes of j relieving her, but she gradually became worse and expired at the above time. I Mrs. Boyle leaves a husband and three small children. She was a daughter of John Brennan, ■ of the Points, and a sister of Mrs. | Daniel Boyle, Mrs. Thomas Elliott and | . Miss Kate Brennan, of Freeland, and j James, John, Joseph and Bernard Brennan, of Wilkes-Barre. The funeral ' will take place tomorrow at 2 o'clock. Interment at St. Ann's cemetery. Change of Pastors. Rev. E. M. Chilcoat, pastor of Trinity M. E. church, will leave today for Rohr-1 burg, Columbia county, to which place ! he was transferred last week by the conference. He will be accompanied by j his family, with the exception of his | daughter, Miss Marguirite Chilcoat, who j will remain here. During his short stay of one year in Freeland Rev. Chilcoat was unusually I successful in his church work, as the in creased membership of his congregations at tliia place and Jeddo will attest. His j many friends here trust he will meet with success in his new field of labor. Rev. Edmund White, the new pastor, J will take charge of Trinity and Jeddo ' < churches on Sunday. Fell Down the Slope. Early Monday morning the body of James McGlynn, 18 years of age, was i found at the bottom of an inside slope at the Crystal Ridge colliery. Cranberry, j He was employed as a pumpman, and it is supposed that while going from one pump to another he fell down the slope. I lie was taken to his home, where he | died at 4 a. m. An inquest was held j and the verdict of the jury was that ho ; was responsible for his death, as he was not compelled to walk up or down the j slope. The young man was buried yesterday at Hazleton. He was a member of the Harleigh St. Aloysius Society, and was ; highly respected by his friend and as-, sociates. Breaker ltadly Damaged. j Early yesterday morning the large | Don breaker of Coxe Bros. & Co. at Oneida was discovered on fire. The flames Rtarted near the bottom of the structure, and although there is hut lit tle woodwork connected with it the blaze gained great heidway on account of the oil and grease with which the breaker , was covered. The breaker is one of the largest and 1 best equipped in the coal region, and the greater part of the costly machinery was considerably damaged. It is thought it will require at least a month or more to place it in running order again. The officials of the company are unable to discover the origin of the fire. A PITTSTON MURDER. One Man Strikes Another Willi an Iron liar antl Causes His Death. James Clilmartin, a resident of Pitts ton, received a wound from the hands of James McLaughlin on Sunday, which has resulted fatally. The injury was a deep gash inflicted on his head, crushing the skull. The dispute between Mc- Laughlin and Gilmartin took place in the former's restaurant. John Gownley, who accompanied Gilmartin, went out with him to the street, when the latter was struck with a heavy piece of iron by McLaughlin. After his injury was dress ed he walke# to his home with his companion. At first it was supposed the injury was not bad, hut on examina tion it was discovered that the skull was farctured and part of it was removed. McLaughlin was arrested 011 Monday and entered hail to the amount of $2,000. 1 Gilmartin died Monday evening a little after 8 o'clock. McLaughlin was re-arrested and taken before Squire Lyons. Charles Gilmartin, brother of deceased, was sworn and said that James Gilmartin had died from injuries inflicted by McLaughlin. Gownley was also sworn and said he was along with deceased when McLaughlin struck him with the iron. A commitment was made out for McLaughlin and the chief of police of Pittston took him to Wilkcs- Barre. McLaughlin had nothing to say during the heayng. He claims that Gilmartin and Gownley were in his saloon drink ing on Saturday night and raised a rumpus of same kind; that he put them out shortly after midnight and they at tempted to break down his side door to get. in; that he opened the door a little ways, took the bar of iron in his hand and struck at them; that he struck one of the two; thought it was 011 the hands and was not aware that he had struck him 011 the head until next day. Gilmartin leaves a wife and four children. lie was aged 35 years and is said to have been always agreeable, full of fun and had a good word for all. He was a member of the Notional Guard and several other societies. Coxe IIKIS.' Suit Revived. Another hearing took place at Phila delphia on Tuesday in United States District Attorney Ingham's office in the suit of Coxe Bros. & Co. against the Le high Valley Railroad Company. Our readers will remember that about three I years ago Coxe Bros, complained to tho Interstate Commerce Commission that i the company was discriminating against them in their charges for carrying coal. | The commission made an order against the railroad company regulating the prices, hut it could not be enforced. The matter (was taken to the circuit court, which heard argument in the dis pute and referred the matter to Henry P. Brown to hear the testimony and re port to the court. At Tuesday's hearing counsel for the commission "offered in evidence the records of the case and the finding of the commission and rested. A two weeks' adjournment was then taken. _ Getting Down to Work. A number of the persons interested in the movement to start a factory of some kind here met at Zemany'shall 011 Tues day evening, and a temporary organiza tion was effected by the election of D. J. McCarthy as chairmun and John It. Wagner as secretary. After several suggestions had been made it was thought that about the best factory that could be started now would he one to manufacture overalls, and a subscription list was opened. The shares will he sold at $25 each, and the capital stock will be decided upon later. Another meeting will be held on Tuesday even ing at the same place. Sold by Dr. Scliilcher. That old established cough remedy, Downs' Elixir, still more than holds its own in tho public estimation, despite sharp and active competition. It is a "home ' remedy," and in this locality needs no words of praise from us, so well and favorably known is it. It is the standard remedy for coughs, colds and all throat troubles, with great numbers of our people, and their con tinued use and unsolicited recommenda tion of it speaks volumes in its favor.— Burlington, IV., Free Frees, January 26, 1882. __ ' * Found With a Ilroken I. eg. Gus Brozinski, of Sandy Run, was found yesterday morning in one of the collieries at that place suffering with a broken leg and other injuries.
