Matter* of a Local Nature Commented Upon and Placed Before tle Readers of the "Tribune" In Large Letters—Some Paragraphs May Interest You. I have heard but very little of the political situation since the tickets of both parties have been placed before the people for their inspection. In fact, the death-like silence main tained by the candidates is such an unusual thing that I am inclined to believe it will cause a large falling off in the vote in this end of the county. The gloom which hangs over the voters in this vicinity ap pears to be of such density that either party will find it hard work to put life into the cam paign. There is no question of popularity nor is there any issue of importance that will tend to excite the interest of the voters, and it is evident that the party which can make the best door to door canvass will come out ahead in the fourth district. With the exception of Tom mj- Smith, of Milnesville, the candidates on both tickets arc practically unknown to the majority of the voters in this end of the county, and it is reasonable to suppose that it is on this account that there is no activity or enthusiasm dis played. 1 have inquired care fully and sought the opinions | of the men politically inclined i of the surrounding towns, only to find that they are uncon cerned as to which party will win in the coming election. This I find to be the prevailing opinion of several of both par ties, although many appear to have a preference for Mr. Smith, and this is no doubt owing to his popularity as a laboring man and the good dis position he lias shown toward the people of the district who had occasion to do business at the commissioner's office dur ing his last term. One thing which I have no ticed of late, and which is very conspicuous, that the failure of the Democrats to put a man from the fourth district on their ticket has caused a large number of anti-new county Democrats to change their opinions. Many of these vo ters who deemed it best to change their views are from the mining towns and live in company houses, therefore, they say that the increase in taxes which the new county would possibly make would be of but little consequence to them and they would prefer it ■ rather than be whipped into line by a few men at the coun ty seat. However, I believe these men will support their ticket, yet I am confident that 'the mistake made by the Demo crats in not having a man from this district on their ticket will, in connection with some other mistakes now being made by the leaders, materially aid in bringing about the new county in 1895. It is surprising to learn how low some men will stoop at times to obtain a few paltry cents. In my rambles last week I heard of a case, which, in itself, may seem insignifi cant, but it nevertheles shows up very accurately the princi ples that control one of the offi cials of a coal company which has its office not far from Free land. Among the laborers em ployed by the street commis sioner in the borough last sum mer was a certain elderly gentleman who is no longer able to work in the mines, and after being thrown idle by the suspension of work here he ap plied for a job last week at a breaker recently erected about a mile and a half from town. He was given work by the ticket boss, who is a thorough gentleman, but before starting his "note" had to be approved by another higher official. With good prospects of a winter's work before him the old man went in search of the person whose duty it is to ap prove or disapprove of the ap | plications made for employ | ment. Having found him and ! placing his request before him ! he thought nothing was surer ; than his job, but he was great i ly surprised when the haughty | superintendent confidentially informed him that the applica- I tion would not be approved un j less "you pay me 50 cents." What a picture this must I have been in the eyes of Him ! who sees all things! An hum ble and aged laborer denied the privilege of working in a coal breaker because he did not possess 50 cents with which to bribe the company's SIOO-a -month superintendent. Men of that class are danger ous to any community, yet they somehow manage to keep from the general public the knowledge that they are bribe takers, and it is not until they meet those whom they think can "sing dumb" will they hold out their itching palms. Several years ago I heard that the selling of jobs about the mines was a common practice, but it was then confined wholly to such applicants who were not familiar with our language and customs. I did not think that a superintendent at this late day would try to sell a job in the breaker to an old resident, and if 50 cents is this man's lowest price he must realize quite a sum on the side every month. Now I do wonder if this dealer in jobs carries on his private business with or without the consent of the firm that employs him. Saunterer. WASHINGTON LETTER. Washington, D. C., Sept. 22. The humiliation of Tom Reeil and his lieutenant, Barrows, of Michigan, when they learned that the Democrats of the house proposod to put an effectual quietus upon the Republican (filibustering against the reporting of the Tucker bill for the repeal of all laws authorizing the presence of U. S. officials at elections, was a pleasing sight to Democratic eyes. Because the Democrats of the house in the adoption of regular rules had been extremely lenient towards the minority the Republicans assumes that no check would be put on their fillibustering. They were given a free rope for awhile because there was not a quorum of Democrats present, but as soon as there was a quorum of Democrats on hand they were effectually squelched by an order reported from the committee on rules and the bill was reported to the house. This order was not the result of any assumption of power by a single individ ual, as were the rulings of Tom Reed when he was speaker; it was authorized by a Democratic caucus, as such things always should be. The Republicans are to be allowed any reasonable length of time during which the debate on this bill shall be carried on, but they are not to be allowed to fillibuster against a vote upon it after a legitimate debate has been exhausted. Several times this week the senate has aroused public expectation by appear ing to be on the eve of the final contest over the Voihees repeal bill, but the end is not yet. Senator Mills, of Texas, made one of the strongest speeches of the week, in favor of repeal. Senator Vorhees made a characteristic explana tion of his position, in answer to criti cisms because he has not forced a vote, calling the attention of the country to the fact that it is simply impossible to force a vote under the present rules of the senate, rules which have not been materially changed for more than eighty years. It is expected that the attempt to reach a vote by means of a continuous session of the senate will be made in a few days (the daily sittings have already been lengthened), and if that fails the bill will either have to be abandoned or a compromise reached by concessions on both sides be adopted. President Cleve land is still confident that the bill can be passed and for that reason declines to consider anything in the shape of a compromise. The public tariff hearings were con eluded this week, and the Democrats on the house ways and means committee are now at work upon the new bill. Although the number of dayß were fewer than were given by some of the other committees, more time was given by the committee than was ever given before for public hearings. Chairman Wilson, speaking of the preparation of the new tariff bill, said: "The Democratic members will work together. Some of tho schedules will be prepared by all of the Democrats to gether, while others will be referred to sub-committees for preparation, previous to being revised by the full Democratic membership of the committee. It is not possible to say when the bill will be completed. We might fix up a measure in very short order, but it is not that kind of a bill we want to present to the country. "Legislation affecting so many inter ests must he carefully considered and its effect calculated before we can hope to perfect a bill which can stand the many tests to which it will be subjected when enacted into a law. We shall, however, lose no time, and hope to pre sent it to the house at the earliest possi ble moment consistent with the impor tant interests involved." S. The nineteenth annual meeting of the Poor Directors' Association of this state will be held at Williamsport on October 17, 18 and 19. READ THE TESTIMONY Of One Who Suffered Years and Tried Many Physicians Both of Philadelphia and New York WITHOUT GETTIIG RELIEF. AND IS NOW CUBED BY DB. BIEGEL. I have been a sufferer for a number of years with catarrh in its worst forms. Had constant headaches, matter drop ping in the throat, dizziness, nose stop ped up, difficulty in breathing and no doubt would soon have been a consump tive, had I not met Dr. Riegel. Before that time I had tried eyery well-known remedy and doctored with many physicians, not only of Hazleton but of New York and Philadelphia, but could get no relief anywhere. As soon as I)r. Riegel began treating me I felt relieved and continued to improve until now I feel like a new man, and knowing that there are many others suffering as much as I did I write this for publica tion, so that others may avail them selves of Dr. Rirgel's treatment before it is too late. Ho can cure you if you take it in time. I am willing to answer any letters of inquiry from persons wishing to consult him. James McCool, 189 North Wyoming Street, Hazleton, Pa.
