FREELAND, PA., OCTOBER 22, 1894.
IS JUNES A DEMOCRAT!
WE DENOUNCE PROTECTION AS A FRAUD, A
HOHIIKRY OF THE GREAT MAJORITY OK THE
AMERICAN PEOPJ.K FOR THE BENEFIT OF THE
FEW. Notional Democratic flat form.
While Hines is denying all connection for
nay. with the tariff schedule in behult' of the
Hazard Company, why does he not deny the
story current in the mouths of everyone, that
la- was heavily paid by the lace mills lor work
done in their behalf? This is not an insinua
tion. but a matter that is boldly talked of and
bruited about the streets. If.-If. Neweilcalcr.
Ilines so far forgot his duty to his party as to
accept an attorney fee from a luce company
thut wanted higher duties on imported lace
curtains. As congressman he voted for the
Wilson bill, but as the paid attorney of a lace
manufacturing company he lobbied for in
creased duties on imports. When a man of
that character implies dishonesty in others it is
a trick to divert attention from his own moral
turpitude. H 'like*-Havre Record.
"Lueet uituinHines" As between u Detno
wns the title applied to eratic protectionist and
Congressman Ilines, of a Republican protee-
Luzerne county, l'a., tionist, other things be
by the ways and means ing equal, the Record is
committee of the last in favor of a Itepubli
c<ingress, it was all on;ean every time. The
account of his pride in Democratic protection
the lace mills at Wilkes- ist is a fraud. Judge

The "Wall Street Daily Netrs is au
thority for the statement that betting
in New York city is SIOO to SSO
against the election of Hill for gover
nor. The News may be right, but at
this distance it looks like a foolish bet
to make. There are some things now
transpiring under the eyes of the
New York papers, which, as yet, they
have not discovered, and if these arc
kept as quiet until election day i s
they have been, the man who bets
SIOO to SSO against Hill's election
will consider himself a fit subject for
a dunce-cap on November 7.
Editor Singerly is making a bold
fight for the governorship. Almost
any other man in the state would be '
discouraged to face the majority of
300,000 which the Republicans claim
ed they would give Hastings. But
Singerly has the grit and his straight
out anti-tariff talks every evening for
the past few weeks have caused the
Republicans to cut their estimated
majority down to 200,000, and now
the battle cry is "for 100,000." Any
man who can make bis opponents
concede him 200,000 votes in two
weeks deserves to be elected and such
a thing as the election of Mr. Singer
ly is by no means improbable.
The Democratic candidate for con
gress is not receiving the sort of treat
ment he deserves from some of the
men who stand high in the party in
this county. To outward appearances
they are aiding him, nevertheles se
cret work against the nominee is
going on in every nook and corner of
the county. The men back of this
fear to come out openly, as it might
injure their future political prospects,
but they are adding nothing credit
able to their reputations by such
work. The TRIBUNE has no love for
Hines and will try to defeat him, but
at the same time it despises Demo
crats who will talk and shout one way
and work and vote another.
Factory Inspector Watchorn, hav
ing been instructed by Governor Put
tison to investigate the company store
system in this state, made an extend
ed report to his chief on Friday. In
it be says that the present law upon
the subject "has not accomplished the
eud desired, inasmuch as it deals only
with chartered corporations, leaving
individual firms and non-chartered
companies to carry on the business
unmolested." The report of the fac
tory inspector confirms all that the
TRIBUNE said of this law a few weeks
after it was adopted. "We claimed
then that the miners and all whom
the bill was intended to benefit had
been "duped" again. At the time it
was passed the TRIBUNE proposed to
make a test case at once. Secretary
of State Harrity was sent a list of
the mining corporations of the Le
high region, with a request to state
whether or not they were chartered,
and out of nearly a dozen companies
he infoimed us that only one (the
Stout Coal Company) had a state
charter. The penalty for violating
the company store law is the revok
ing of the charter i f the offending
corporation, so the legislators who
drew up this bill had an eye to the
interests of their friends, the corpora
tions, when they proposed to make
them forfeit something which scarce
ly one in twenty of them possessed.
Congressman Hines claims the credit
of getting this act passed. What
can miners think of a legislator who
will sell them out by giving them |
such a useless and worthless law as
the company store bill ?
C'utecliising CundiilateM.
From the Philadelphia Record.
The following letter, with list of in
quiries attached, lias been addressed to
the Democratic candidate for governor.
He does not recognize the propriety of
making private declarations or pledges
relating to matters affecting the general
welfare while a candidate for office, and
therefore gives to the public both ques
tions and answers:
NVilliamsport, Pa., October 12.
Dour Sir.- The following questions have been
sent to all the candidates for office, regardless
of party, in this district. Will you kindly
answer them as you see lit, and return them to
tlie chairman ol' this committee as soon as
possible?
Junior Order United American Mechanics.
Patriotic Order Sons of America.
American Protective Association.
S. K. Runyan, Chairman.
First. Are you in favor of maintaining our
public school system?
Second. Have you ever been connected with
the public schools; und, if so, how?
Third. Arc you in favor of compulsory
education?
Fourth. Arc you in favor of flying the
American Hag over all school buildings, and of
teaching, by every possible means, the Ameri
can youth undying loyalty to that Hag?
Fifth. Are you in favor of allowing any
other than the stars and stripes being displayed
in the Untited States on public occasions?
Sixth. Would you vote to appropriate any
public money for sectarian.puposes?
Seventh. Are you in favor of the Stone
emigration bill?
Eighth. What should be required of an alien
before he can be naturalized?
Ninth. How long should lie reside in tin-
United States before he receives naturalization?
Tenth. Arc you in favor of taxing churcli
property?
Eleventh. Do you typlieve that Protestant
Americans are the best and safest persons to
intrust the management of our public offices?
Twelfth. If elected, will you pledge yourself
to do your utmost to carry out your opinions
on these questions, regardless of any influence
that may be brought to bear 011 you?
First question. Yes.
Second. Only as a pupil, a school
director (about thirty years Jgo) and as a
taxpayer.
Third. No.
Fourth. I am specially and particu
larly and constantly in favor of loyalty
to American institutions, and to the flag
as an emblem of our nationality. lam
in favor of flying the American flag
upon every occasion possible to float it—
on land and sea.
Fifth. I see no objection to the dis
play of the (lag of any country on occa
sions of special interest to citizens of
foreign birth who love their fatherland.
Sixth. No.
Seventh. I am in favor of such re
striction of foreign immigration as is
needed to prevent the landing of crimi- '
nals, paupers and anarchists.
Eighth. An intelligent understanding
of our free system of government and
the duties of citizenship.
Ninth. More stringent regulations
with reference to proper qualification
would make any change in the term of
residence before naturlization unnec
essary.
Tenth. No.
Eleventh. I do not believe that a
man's religious beliefs should be a sub
ject of political inquiry. The public
safety is best assured by simple honesty,
capacity and efficiency on the part of
officials.
Twelfth. The oath of office, which
must be taken by every state official, is
a sufficient pledge. He can, with con
sistency, make no other; and no other
can he properly required of him.
Bogus Labor Bill* and False Claims.
From the Wilkes-Barre Record.
In the Lender llines giyes a list of bills
which he says he introduced and which
were passed "largely through his ef
forts." Among them are the employers'
liability bill—a dead letter. The pow
der bill—a dead letter. The night school
bill. He didn't even draw this bill. It
was drawn by Dr. P. J. Higgins, of this
city, pasßed the senate through the ef
forts of Hon. Eckley B. Coxe, and was
concurred in by the house. Had not
Dr. Higgins conceived the bill and Coxe
carried it through the senate, it would
never have become a law. In daring to
to be the father of this bill Mr. Hines is
simply saying what is not true.
The dockage bill and semi-month
ly pay bill amount to nothing. They
simply encumber the statute books.
Had Mr. Hines the welfare of the peo
ple at heart he would refuse to cheat
them by such worthless legislation. He
would not insult their intelligence by
telling them that these laws have bene
fitted them. Their experience teaches
them that not one of the above bills are
worth the paper they are written on ex
cept the night school bill, which does
not belong to Mr. Hines.
Sufficient to Disgust Democrat*.
From the Wilkes-Barre Newsdealer.
Wonder how many votes will be added
to the Democratic column by the reten
tion of little Dickie Brundage in Collec
tor Herring's office. Brundage calls
i himself a Democrat but it is immaterial
i to Democrats of his sort whether the
i administration is Democratic or Republi
can, for tbey fare Just as well under
either. Such appointments are sufficient
to disgust the practical working Demo
crats, and we don't blame them a bit.
When workers like J. W. Maloy, of
Lansford, are turned down for nonde
scripts like Brundage, it's enough to put
party fealty out of joint. John T. Lena
han, it is said, is responsible for the
selection of Brundage.

THINGS SEEN AND HEARD IN THE
TOWN AND VICINITY.
Matters of a Local Nature Written l'p
and Placed Before the Headers of tlie
"Tribune" by the Sauntercr- Something
Here May Interest You.
The great number of people who
gathered at the opera house, about ten
days ago, to hear the Democratic candi
dates defend their cause, have been
doing some thinking about what they
heard, and all shades of political com
ment have been floating in the air since.
Taking all in all it has dwindled down
to the sayings of Mr. liincs, who was
the magnet that drew the crowd, but as
he was advised, according to common
report, what to say and cautioned what
not to say, by friends who claim him as
their own, it is not surprising that some
of his ridiculous assertions failed to
make a "hit." Indeed, if one is to
judge what elTect the speech had upon
the voters, a few minutes conversation
with them will bring to light the fact
that our congressman is not by half so
able in "stuffing" them as he was some
years ago.
All men have not been endowed by
nature with a surplus of foresight. Some
are not as quick to grasp an idea as
others, but because all men are not
college bred, it should not he inferred
that they can he led or driven like cattle.
In Mr. Ilines' recent utterances almost
every word was an appeal to prejudice,
and the vast difference in the conduct of
himself and the other candidates, who
appeared on the platform, was a decided
advantage in their favor. Ilis presump
tion that the people of this locality are
so ignorant as to allow themselves to be
insulted by a supposition that he can
sway them to and fro, that they haven't
brains enough to think for themselves,
is decidedly erroneous. The days of
halters and whips have passed, and it
has been very unfortunate for Mr.
Ilines that his advisors did not inform
him of this fact.
About the worst blunder made was
the attack upon Dr. 11. M. Neale, of
Upper Lehigh. It is not much use for a
man with a record like Mr. Hines to at
tempt to bring reproach upon the in
tegrity and character of Doc. Neale, es
pecially in this end of the district, for of
all the professional men in our midst
few, if any, are held in higher estima
tion by the very people before whom
Mr. Hines delivered his harangue. The
doctor has won the friendship of the
people by bis charity and generosity to
those in Freeland and vicinity who de
served assistance, not in one case, but in
hundreds, and no amount of calumny
that may be poured upon him by irres
ponsible politicians can sever that friend
ship. Facts are at all times stronger
than fiction, and this is one which has
many witnesses to sustain it.
Ilia grand display of ignorance upon
tlie subject of doctors' fees startled his
most ardent supporters. In condemn
ing the system of miners voluntarily
paying 75 cents per month for the ser
vices of a family physician, to an audi
ence of miners, he gave but a slight idea
of how little he knows about what is of
real benefit to mine-workers. It is not
miners alone who approve of this sys
tem, but the merchants, butchers, bak
ers and tradesmen of every kind, where
ever it is in vogue, all commend it.
Still, Mr. Hines, who knows only what
somebody tells him, would insist upon
insulting the intelligence of the people
upon this subject, as he did upon others.
Foster township school teachers re
ceived their pay on Saturday, and this
week, in company with the rest of the
county teachers, they are attending in
stitute up at Wilkes-Barre. The action
of the directors in providing them with
the necessary cash to properly enjoy
their week's vacation is appreciated by
the teachers, and such thoughtfulness
cannot fail but to have a good effect upon
their work in the future. If a system
of semi-monthly payments could be ar
ranged by school boards I think it would
be welcomed by the teachers. The rule
of making payments more frequently is
becotoiug general in all branches of busi
ness, and the school disiricts ought not
be behind. Which of our boards of di
rectors will be first to adopt the sugges
tion? SAUNTEBER
