FREELAND, PA., OCTOBER 15, 1894.
PAID FOll PROTECTION.
From the Wilkes-Barre Newsdealer, Dem.
While J fines in denying all connection far
pay, with the tarijj' schedule in behalf of the
Hazard Company, why does he not deny the
story current in the mouths of everyone, that
he was heavily paid by the lace mills for
work done in their behalf? This is not an
insinuation, but a matter that is boldly
talked of and bruited about the streets.

C. P. Huntington, the eminent (?)
railroad manipulator, writes an article
for the Manufacturers' Record , of
Baltimore, in which he says there
ought to bo only one railroad system
in the country, and certainly not more
than three. Of course Huntington is
right. There ought to be only one
and the government—the people—
should own and run it—and there
will only be one in the near future.—
K. of L. Journal.
The TIUHL'NE stands squarely upon
the Democratic national platform when
it denounces protection as unconsti
tutional, and it will never support a
Democratic candidate for congress
who has worked against the party's
position on the tariff. When it says
that a Democratic protectionist is a
fraud it merely repeats the public
declarations of Democratic leaders,
and when its choice is restricted to a
Democratic protectionist and a Re
publican protectionist it follows the
advice of the Democratic candidate
for governor and favors a Republican.
The AVilkes-Barre Newsdealer on
Thursday stated that the Hazard
Wire Hope Works paid a congress
man $2,000 for securing a rate of
tariff that would not injure its indus
try. Congressman Hines, though not
accused of being the bribe-taker,
rushed into print next day denying
that he ever got as much as a cigar
from the wire rope manufacturers.
He says it was Congressmen Cadmus,
of New Jersey, and Reilly, of Schuyl
kill, who were in the service of the
rope works. Of course it was, Billy.
You were too busy working for the
lace and carpet industries, were you
not?
Every Democrat who wishes to
show bis friendship for tariff reform
and his belief in the Democratic
national platform must not overlook
the party's candidates for congress
menat-large, Henry Meyers and
Thomas Collins. In accepting the
nomination both men announced them
selves as Democrats, believers in
Democratic principles, and opposed
to protection in every shape and form,
but better still are the records of both
for many years past. They have been
among the foremost fighters for the
party in the central and western parts
of the state, and it can bo predict ed
with safety that if elected they will
not come back from congress with the
taint of dishonesty upon their work.
Daring one of the able speeches
in this region last week, an orator
asked some pertinent questions of
protectionists. While enumerating
the many industries that receive pro
tection, he asked, "Why docs the car
pet manufacturer want protection!"
We don't know, indeed, unless it is to
get rich at the expense of the public
like the rest of them. But perhaps
our great tariff reform congressman
could tell. He traveled the streets of
Washington with a Republican car
pet manufacturer, William Menzies,
of Plymouth, and worked with him
night and day to have the McKinley
rate of duty retained on the class of
carpets made at Plymouth. Notwith
standing that the house and senate
had agreed to a lower rate, Hines
considered himself a superior judge
of the tariff question and pleaded with
the conferees on the tariff bill to let
the high protective duty stand.
Could John Leisenring do more in
the interest of Republican principles
and Republican manufacturers?
Hazleton Man Wantx Damages.
From the Wilkes-Barro Record.
William liardy, of Hazleton, had a
summons in assumpsit issued on Friday
against the Lehigh Valley ltailroad Com
pany for $5,000 damages. The papers
in the case cover a novel point, and the
suit will no doubt attract much attention.
Mr. Hardy alleges in his statement that,
on November 11, 1572, ho purchased a
lot in Hazleton of the company. The
deed for the premises reserved the right
to hold and mine all coal and other min
erals, and also covenanted that the sur
face earth should not be broken, cut or
misplaced in tbe removal of the mineral
underneath, and that any damage done
would be made good by the Lehigh Val
ley Railroad Company.
The plaintiff alleges that, by agree
ment with the company, Alio Pardee &
Co. removed the minerals, and, that in
1892 a cave occurred, taking with it a
dwelling house and broom factory. He
claims, that by this sinking the surface
was damaged to the extent of SI,OOO, and
the house and broom factory to the
extent of $4,000, and claims that amount.
Abetted by a Girl.
The police of the upper end of the
county think they have captured some of
the gang that have been committing
burglaries in that section during the past
few months. On Monday last the house
of George Bertram was entered, the
family chloroformed and SIOO and some
valuable deeds stolen. Frank Grady
and Kdward Carey were arrested on
suspicion.
The men were seen lounging around
near the house on the night of the rob
bery and they were met by a young girl,
who handed them a package. The po
lice found the wrapper, on which was
pasted a drug store label. At this store
they learned the girl had bought some
chloroform. The men have been jailed
and will be held for trial.
Two More Murders.
Murders continue to disgrace the re
cords of Luzerne county. On Friday
night at Maltby, a short distance above
Wilkes-Barre, three Hungarians be
came diunk and rushed through the
streets with shot-guns. George Sivoski,
age 14 years, was shot dead; John Jen
kins, aged 2S, was shot and died on
Saturday; Miss Lizzie Frosky, aged 15,
is expected to die; Miss Maggie Moore,
aged 14, has both arms and limbs rid
dled with shot, and Thomas Moore,
aged 23, has his left knee full of shot.
No arrests yet.
Wanted to Die to Win.
An insurance agent, who was iu the
upper part of Wilkes-Barre soliciting on
Friday, met Mike Abordso, a Polander,
who after a little persuasion took out a
SSOO policy. Two hours afterward he
returned to his boarding house and went
to his room. In a few minutes one of
his friends heard a cry of pain, then
found Abordso strangling at the end of
a rope. He was cut down and soon re
covered. He said he wanted his wife
to get the insurance money.
The agent, when he heard of the case,
bought back the policy for $lO.
Children Accused or Shoplifting.
Frances Morris and Mary Yeuchsfoki,
two girls less than 13 years of age, were
arrested at Shenandoah last week as
shoplifters. While one stood as a shield
in a leading dry goods house the other
transferred goods from a counter case to
her dress. A clerk detected the act and
caused the arrest. The parents of the
children disowned them and they were
committed to jail without hail for trial.
After the arrest a search warrant led to
the discovery of goods stolen from other
merchants.

PICKED UP BY THE WAY.
THINGS SEEN AND HEARD IN THE
TOWN AND VICINITY.
Matters of a Local Nature Written Up
and Placed Before the Benders of the
"Tribune" by the Saunterer—.Something
Here May Interest You.
The demand for dwelling houses does
not show tbe least signs of abating; in
fact, it is increasing daily, and house
hunting is a job that causes much care
and worry to the many workmen who
have lately obtained employment in and
around Freeland. The mere announce
ment that a contract has been let to
build a dwelling brings a rush of pros
pective tenants to tbe owner that causes
him to wish he was building twenty
houses instead of one. In talking a few
evenings ago to a gentleman, who is
building a residence in town, he told me
that he bad no less than seventeen ap
plications from parties who wished to
rent it, and during our conversation two
more men approached liim with the
same question.
It is simply amazing to learn the diffi
culties that are to be encountered in this
town when one tries to rent a dwelling.
It is true that many were erected last
summer, but as soon as completed they
were occupied and those in course of
erection have been asked for. The sup
ply does not begin to compare with tbe
amount required, and the number of
railroaders, mechanics, etc., who are
boarding here because they cannot get
houses for their families, is surprising.
How long this condition of affairs is
going to last cannot be stated. It will
prove a profitable investment to tbe
parties who provide accommodation for
tbe people who want to live here.
Tbe new system of juggling railway
schedules that is in practice on the Trac
tion Company's road is not at all pleas
ing to its patrons in this section since
tbe opera season began, and on several
occasions, especially the week tbe Mac
ready Company played at tbe opera
house, some language, which was about
as vehement as it was choice, could be
beard echoing down Centre street when
nearly two dozen of people, who bad
been attending the play, found they
bad to walk home. Among tbe disap
pointed were people from Drifton, Jed
do, Ebervale and Lattimer, and as they
began their march homeward tbe inter
change of opinions was anything but
complimentary to tbe Traction Company.
After searching in vain for a time
table or schedule card, I sought one of
tbe motormen and was informed that
the last car was scheduled to leave Free
land at 11.09 p. m. to go to Hazleton
and towns south of Freeland. He also
said the last car was scheduled to leave
Hazleton for tbe North Side at 11.10 p.
m., but as this last car could not possibly
reach Freeland before 11.30 p. m., to
me it was a perplexing question how it
left Freeland at 11.09, or just one min
ute before it left Hazleton. By another
inquiry it was learned that the 11.10
p. in. car, scheduled to leave Hazleton
for Freeland, is guided more by "if"
than by the company's timetable, and
it is iu this uncertainty where the an
noyance and disappointment lies.
This 11.10 p. m. car from Hazleton,
if it has passengers, will come all the
way over to Freeland, if not, it will re
turn to llazleton at whatever point the
last passenger coming this way gets off,
and as a result the car does not always
reach the destination for which it is
scheduled. There are many people
from Drifton and Jeddo who attend
amusements at the opera house, and
when at plays, especially, it is on rare
occasions the curtain is dropped in time
to catch the 11.09 car. To be of service
and convenience to the road's patrons
the car leaving Hazleton at 11.10 o'clock
should be run through to Freeland
without any "if" or proviso, thereby
carrying out the schedule in a manner
definite, and satisfactory'to all.
W. B. Lovett, the able chief of the
Weatherly fire department, was in town
last week inspecting tho new supply
wagon recently completed at Halpin's
shops. Mr. Lovett is a member of the
firm of Reed & Lovett, operators of
thejiilk mill in that town, and is a man
of sharp business intellect, plain and un
assuming in manner and a thorough
gentleman in every respect. The design
of this new vehicle for the fire depart
ment is original and the product of
the chief's brain. It is something he
can look upon with pride as no doubt
the fire laddies and citizens in general
of Weatherly will. It is Mr. Lovett and
others of like business foresight who
keep Weatherly in the front rank of the
enterprising towns of the Lehigh Valley.
Freeland could find use for a number of
such men as him. SAUNTEREB.
Couldn't J*y Salaries
When the Shenandoah base ball club
disbanded on Monday there was not
enough money to pay salaries due, and
several of the players were almost pen
niless and far from home. Thdy sought
relief by passing around the hat, and
raised suflicient funds to send several of
the players home, although Weikert,
after purchasing a ticket for St. Louis,
had only 130 cents left. The manage
ment claim to be over S7OO in the hole.

tricts in Freeland borough.

ter sessions, and was confirmed nM by tile
court on September 29, 1894, and that said re

Archbishops Approve a Society.
The conference of Roman Catholic
archbishops of America, which took
place at Philadelphia last week, passed
upon several matters of church dis
cipline, and also took up the question of
deciding upon the standing of the An
cient Order of Hibernians as a Catholic
society and the exact clerical attitude
which should be taken toward it. On
that point Archbishop Ryan has given
out the statement that the conference
regarded the "Ancient Order of Hiber
nians as a most admirable society." The
subject of the Odd Fellows and kindred
organizations did not arise, as some ex
pected and the A. P. A. question was not
brought up in any way.
Previous to his leaving for Atlantic
City on Friday Archbishop Ryan, with
the consent of Cardinal Gibbons, who
presided at the conference, made the
following additional statement:
"There are two branches of the A. 0.
11. One is known as the Ancient Order
of Hibernians of America, and the sec
ond as the A. 0. 11. of the Board of
Erin. While the assembled archbishops
took no action in regard to the latter
they spoke in favorable terms of the
former, which includes the great bulk of
the order in the United States, of which
the bishop of Detroit is the national
spiritual director."
Nothing that the conference may have
considered is likely to appeal directly to
so large a body of Catholics as this sub
ject of the standing of the Ancient Or
der. The result has been awaited
with profound interest by the thousands
of members of the organization. The
decision places the order in a position
that will be gratifying to a large number
of men who for years have been endeav
oring to bring about that result.
While this order, which enrolls more
than 2,000 members and twenty-three
branches in this county alone, has been
tacitly approved in many dioceses, it has
been under a certain suspicion, so to
speak, which dates from the time of
Archbishop Wood, of Philadelphia, and
Catholics have felt, in many cases, that
to join the order was an act not approved
by their church in Pennsylvania.
The trouble dates from the alleged
complicity of members of the order in
the Molly Maguire troubles of twenty
years ago, and although the society quick
ly disowned all men proved to he in the
troubles in the mining regions, the pre
judice has been hard to live down. The
official indorsement by the assembled
archbishops, who termed the order "a
most admirable society," sweeps away
every shadow of supposed churchly dis
favor.
In all other states but this the prelates
have been its strong friends, and two
archbishops are enthusiastic members
of the order, one of them a prominent
officer of the society. This official ap
probation by the archbishops of the
country will settle a question that has
caused much d iscussion inCatholiccircles.
