18 JUNES A DEMOCRATf
WE DENOUNCE PHOTECTION AS A FRAUD, A
ItOHHERY OF TIIE GREAT MAJORITY OF THE
AMERICAN PEOPLE FOR TIIK BENEFIT OF THE
FEW.— National Democratic Platform.
While Uines is denying nil connection for
pay, with the tariff schedule in behalf of the
Hazard Company, why does he not deny the
story current in the months of everyone, that
lie was heavily paid by the lace mills for work
(lone in their behalf? This is not an insinua
tion. but a matter that is boldly talked of and
bruited about the streets. H'.-B. Newsdealer.
Mines so far forgot his duty to his party as to
accept an attorney fee from a laee company
that wanted higher duties on imported lace
curtains. As congressman he voted for the
Wilson bill, hut 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 attcution from his own morui
turpitude. WUkes-Barrc Record.
"Lace Curtain II ines" As between a Demo
was the title applied to eratic protectionist and
Congressman Mines, 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 lust in favor of a Kcpubli
congress. It was all on can every time. The
account ol his pride in Democratic piotection
tlie luce mills at Wilkes- ist is a fraud. Judge

I'phoMeru 'Trade .lour- candidate for governor,
nal, October Number, in the Phtta. Record.
A correspondent who iB a victim of
the company store iniquity writes to
the Record to ask how he and such
as he can gain their freedom. Lot
him and them no longer give their
votes to the party that has so long
fostered this system of ileecing hon
est workingmen of their wages while
making canting professions of devo
tion to the interests of labor. A
Democratic legislature and Demo
cratie government in Pennsylvania
would make short work with the
company store abuse.— P/tila. Record.
Every day brings John J. McNelis
nearer to the victory that awaits him.
His untirtng work to redeem this
legislative district has won for him
hundreds of votes and has encourag
ed the Democratic legislative commit
tee to mako this the greatest battle
ground in the county. His election
will unite the party as it was never
before, and will make the election of
future legislative candidates a cer
tainty. He has a clean record and
no Democrat should cut him on any
account.
Democrats should do their best to
elect the state, county and legislative
tickets this year. Every man on them
is worthy of the honest and united
support of the party, and by getting
out the full vote in every district the
election of the nominees can be ac
complished. The coming election is
as important as any ever held in the
history of the state, therefore let
every Democrat do his duty by going
to the poll and voting for the honest
men on the ticket, but don't forget to
repay the man who betrayed you and
the party at Harrisburg and at
Washington.
To one, and only one statement
made by the TRIM?NK has Billy Mines
offered a denial. On the fourth page
today we furnish proof of our charge
that the semi monthly pay law cannot
be enforced unless the miners make a
demand for it. In denying that such ;
action was necessary on the part of
employes, in his speech here on the
13th ult., Hines insulted the intelli
gence of every man in the hall.
The letter wo publish today from
Factory Inspector Watchorn is con
vincing proof of Mines' demagoguery.
"We are sorry this labor fraud and
bogus Democrat did not deny more
of our charges. The TRIBUNE office is
just loaded with proof of his dis
honestly and treachery to his friends,
to the workingmen and to his party.
The action of the Republican com
bine in Philadelphia in procuring tho
the best legal talent in that city to
defend the assossors who padded the
registry lists must strike the ordin
ary observer of political events as tho
most barefaced sanction and direct
support of fraud that has disgraced
any political organization in l'enn
sylvania. Furthermore when Repub
lican candidates go on the bonds of
the guilty assessors to keep them out
of jail they contribute also to the pol
lution of the ballot, and tho apologetic
position of Republican papers on the
question, in trying to excuse the as
sessors for their crimes, is a disgrace
to Philadelphia journalism. Tam
many in Now York may have been
corrupt, but when its corruption was
unearthed there was no Union League
there to appropriate $1(10,000 as a
fund to be used in defeating the ends
of justice.
What Is Uines?
Is he a friend of workingmen?
If be is will he explain why the labor
bills which he claims to be the author |
of, a dozen or more, have not improved
the condition of the miners?
Why is it that Iliues' dockage bill is I
so imperfect that the miners of the ;
Lackawanna region are now demanding
the abolishment of that system by legis
lation?
Why is it that Mines' powder bill does
not put an end to that legalized robbery
throughout the coal regions?
Why is it that Mines' employers' lia
bility bill will not stand in court and
make employers liable for damages at
all times when they are responsible for
an accident or death?
Why is it that Hines' company store
bill does not abolish these stores and
why does its penalty apply only to char
tered corporations, when the author, in
drawing it up, knew that scarcely one
in every twenty corporations have a
state charter?
Why is it that Mines' amendment to
the semi-monthly pay law does not com
pel corporations and firms to pay semi
monthly? Is it not because when Hines
amended the bill he inserted the words
"when demanded," thereby compelling
workingmen to demand their wages
semi-monthly before action can be taken
by the factory inspector or any other
citizen, which act of Mines' made it a
worthless measure?
Why is it that ho allows the claim to
be made, and makes it himself, that he
is the originator of the night school bill
(an act without loopholes), and thereby
tries to steal the credit of that act from
ex-Senator Eckley 15. Coxe?
Is he a Democrat?
If he is why did he not explain during
his canvass the record he made in the
last session of congress, a record that
was systematically opposed to the best
interests and welfare of the Democratic
party?
Why did he stubbornly refuse to vote
to take up the Wilson bill for considera
tion in the house?
Why did he act, last January, with
the Republican members, and refuse,
after repeated appeals from the Demo
cratic leaders, to vote and help make a
quorum so that the Wilson bill would be
placed on the calendar.
Why did lie speak against the Wilson
bill and bitterly denounce it, claiming
that the free bituminious clause of the
bill was against the interests of his con
stituents when there was not a bitumin
ious miner in his district?
Why did he not tell what interest the
coal combination had in having a duty
retained on bituminious coal, and why
did he espouse the cause of that great
monopoly in congress?
Why did he, about the time Mr.
Connifi's appointment as internal
revenue collector was expected, become
an active worker for the Wilson bill,
which was then the same bill he
denounced a short time previous?
Why did he, a few days later, when
the official announcement was made
that Grant Herring was to be collector,
again become an opponent of the Wilson
bill and tell a friend in the house that
"if Cleveland wants a vote for the tariff
bill he had better ask Grant Herring?"
Why did be not explain of what bene
fit it was to him, liis constituents or the
Democratic party to labor for and obtain
a change of duty from 40 to 50 per cent
upon laces, lace trimmings, lace curtains
and other products of lace mills?
Why did he seek interviews with the
conference committee of the tariff bill
and appeal for the retention of the Mc-
Kinley rate of duty upon jute carpets?
Why did he absent himself from con
gress to look after the interests of Wil
liam Menzies, a Republican carpet manu
facturer of Plymouth, who is now so in
terested in his re-election that he lias
publicly announced in the Nanticoke
Neies that he will vote for and support
Hines?
Why did he not explain his absence
from congress upon the day the tariff
bill was adopted, when that measure
came back from the senate, where it
had been Gormanized and changed from
a revenue bill to a protective act deemed
by Cleveland unworthy of his signature?
Why did he not tell that he did not
dare to vote for tho bill, as compromised,
on final passage, and that he had not
the courage to vote against it?
Why did he not vote for or against the
bills to place coal, iron ore, sugar and
barbed wire on the free list?
Is he an honest man?
If he is why does he not deny the
charges that have been made broadcast
against him as a public officer and a
private citizen?
Why does lie not deny that he obtain
ed money from men in this county in
1892 by giving them promises that if
Cleveland was elected lie would secure
them the postmastersliips in their
respective towns?
Why does he not deny that lie refused
to carry out the agreements made with
these men and appointed others to the
positions?
Why does he not deny that lie
accepted money from men for appoint
ing them as postmasters?
Why does he uot deny the charge of
the New York World that he was absent
254 times out of 308 roll-calls in congress?
Why does he not deny that he was
| paid a large sum of money to work for
I lace manufacturers' interests in congress
and against the measure of the party
which elected him?
Why does ho not deny that he was to
receive $2,500 and have the privilege of
naming the deputies, etc., if Mr. Con- |
niff was appointed collector?
Why does he not deny that he gave a
written promise to work for the appoint
ment as collector of M r. Staples for $2,000?
Why does he not deny that he insist
ed, before he would indorse John S.
McGroarty for internal revenue col
lector, that he be allowed to name the
subordinate officials of the collector, and
that such an agreement was repudiated
by Mr. McGroarty?
Why does he not deny that he accepts
money from corporations to secure his
election every time he is a candidate for
public office.
Why does he not pay his campaign
assessments and not have the chairmen
of Democratic county committees pay
the bills which were contracted upon
the strength of his promises?
Why does he not return to the govern
ment a proportionate part of the SIO,OOO
he receives as salary that was not
earned?
Why does he not return to the govern
ment the amount of money he has
received as congressman's mileage and
acknowledge that he rides to and from
Washington free on a pass?
Why does he denounce railroad cor
porations and claim to be their enemy,
and then ride through the district, as lie
is doing today, on free passes from
several railroads?
Why does he not tell what service he
renders the railroad companies in return
for their free passes?
Why does he not sue the Hazleton
Sentinel, the Wilkes-Barre Record , the
Wilkes-Bar re Newsdealer, the Wilkes-
Barre Telephone and the Philadelphia
Press, or even deny the statements re
flecting upon his honesty which were
published in those papers?
Why does he not go into court, as was
threatened a few months ago, and sue
the TRIBUNE for the statements it has
repeatedly made for more than a year
past against hi in and his character?
Why dots he not acknowledge that he
dare not open his record to a legal in
vestigation by bringing his threatened
suit against the TRIBUNE?
Is it not because the TRIBUNE has the
proof to sustain every charge it has ever
made against him, and that by taking
the matter into court his record would
there be exposed and the reputations of
certain oilice-holders in this congres
sional district would suffer in conse
quence? Is that the reason?
JOHN HUNT, who died in Zclconk,
Mass., recently, was known principally
as the man who hadn't spoken to his
wife in twenty years. Along in the
70's Hunt asked his wife to sign a con
veyance of some land he wanted to sell.
She didn't want to, and told him so.
Prom that minute he ceased speaking
to her. Soon she thought to please
him by signing the paper. But her ac
tion was in vain. Hunt then made the
sale, but continued in his refusal to
speak. To his dying hour he uttered
not one word to the woman he had
married only five or six years beforo
the delaved land sale.
DEATHS by starvation are perhaps
commoner the rich than among
the poor. The emaciation that comes
of chronic indigestion simply pro
claims an ill-nourished body, a starv
ing without hunger. Every physician i
in New York, from whatever social cir- ;
cle his patients are drawn, treats many
such cases of starvation. The milk
diet, so much talked of for the past
twenty years, and so little understood,
is really a device to feed these starving
men and women who perish for lack of
nourishment in the presence of plenty.
IT is worthy of note that there is an
increasing European mail by the Amer
ican liners that have sea post offices.
These post offices are entirely in tho
control of the United States govern
ment, and although the British gov
ernment has mail contracts with other
lines, specially marked mail matter is
sent by the American liners. Some
hours are saved in tho distribution and
delivery of matter on this side by
sending it on vessels carrying the sea
post office.
THE sensation in Atlanta, Ga., is tho
preaching of a thirteen-year-old negro
boy, Charles Johnson, of Gibbs, La. lie
Is of a light ginger-cake color. lie was
| converted, ho says, at the age of eight,
and felt an immediate call. lie is now
going to a theological seminary, whero
he is taking a course in Bible study.
He has none of the awkwardness of
youth and his voice is peculiarly deep.
Ills thoughts are of a high character
and expressed in excellent language.
STATISTICS show that in 1,000 mar
riages 332 men marry women younger
than themselves, 579 marry women of
their own age or near it and 89 marry
women older than themselves. The
most notable difference in ages was in
Camden, N. J., last year, where the
bridegroom was 22 and bride 09.
AN ingenious IMttsburglier has de
vised a clothes-wringer which is oper
ated by electricity. It work automat
! ically, and when ithe last piece is
squeezed out a bell rings and the wash
tub is turned over and emptied.
STATISTICS show that more men than
women commit bigamy. This ought to
stop all argument as to which is the
more courageous sex.
DEMOGOGUE UNMASKED.
SCATHING CHARGES MADE AGAINST
CONGRESSMAN HINES.
Not a Word of Denial Caino from the
I.il>h of the Man Who Stands Accused
of Perfidy and Treachery—-Proven to
Do a Tool of Corporations.
In the Ilazleton Sentinel of last Friday
evening appeared a communication,
signed by Matthew Long, of that city,
in which Congressman liines, the al
leged champion of labor, is accused of
betraying the interests of the people in
everything he has ever done, either as
an assemblyman, senator or congress
man. Mr. Long calls attention to the
dockage bill, company store bill, two
weeks' pay bill, employes' liability I ill,
powder bill, etc., all of which liines
claims credit for, and states that while
these measures were introduced osten
sibly in the interest of the miners, it is
evident, from their uselessness, that
liines was then in the employ of the
very corporations whom he is continually
denouncing.
Mr. Long had the letter published on
Friday evening so that the congressman
could have an opportunity to contradict
any of its charges if he would. The fol
lowing extract from the communication
should interest the men liines has been
duping for the past fifteen years:
While the new county bill was before
the senate, a committee consisting, as
near as I can remember, of Alvin Mar
kle, C. W. Kline, Geo. Maue, Gapt.
Giles, Charles Mans, J. F. Barber, Wil
liam Lauderbacb, John (i. Seager, Peter
Breihof, Hon. P. F. Boyle and myself
went to the capital in its interest. After
adjournment of the evening session of
the senate we were in the Grand hotel
in company with Senator Bates, Hon.
James Collins, our assemblyman at that
time, and Hon. John Donahue, a Demo
cratic memberof the house from Phila
delphia. We were engaged criticising
the hostility of Senator liines to the bill,
when Mr. Donahue remarked, "Itserves
you people right." Some one in the
party asked why.
Mr. Donahue replied: "During my ex
perience, and I have been coming here
for years, no section of the state makes
so much noise about labor legislation as
your section. Yet to my knowledge
there has never has been in the Penn
sylvania legislature a traitor to the in
terests of labor to equal your man
liines." Several of us at once asked
what reason he had for making such a
sweeping assertion.
"Why," said he, "I was a member of
the house when liines was. He intro
duced ;l number of labor bills. 1 shall
never forget or forgive the infamy ol the
man upon the occasion which I am about
to mention. He arose in his place one
day in support of his company store bill,
or dockage bill, I am not sure which
now, and depicted how the miners in
Luzerne were abused and robbed in a
speech that would take tears from a
stone.
"But lo and behold! He had barely
finished his speech and resumed his
seat when he asked me and other Phila
delphia members to vote against his
bill. He had no doubt been seen by the
corporations, and as his speech would
appear in the Legislative Record next day,
he would send that to his laboring con
stituents and they would be satisfied
that he was working in their interest."
The contemptible insolence of the
man who would be guilty of the above
and then ask for workingmen's votes
cannot go unpunished. It would be an
everlasting disgrace to the miners of
Luzerne county to again elect this two
faced fraud to any office of trust.
Continuing, Mr. Long says:
During his last session as state senator
you will remember that we had up the
new county bill. Well 1 lines stood and
looked on until he succeeded in scaring
the Wilkes-Barre politicians that the
bill was going to pass unless money was
raised to defeat it. Well, they raised
$1,200 and Mines stuck it dou4i in his
sock and then had the bill indefinitely
postponed. If any person doubts this
let them ask John Lenahan. He con
tributed SSO. Let them ask Tom Eng
lish. He contributed SSO. Ask John
Smoulter, John McGroarty, John Gar-'
man and a host of others. They are all
manly enough to acknowledge the truth.
But Mines, who did nothing until he got
his stake, now comes to the people of
lower Luzerne and tells them that he
had to oppose their interests because the
upper end was against it.
Mines, at the time the communication
was published, was in the city, and a
few hours later addressed a Democratic
meeting held there. His speech was
very tame, containing nothing but his
stereotyped appeal to give him another
chance, to not elect John Leisenring to
congress and to not believe all the state
ments circulated about Billy Mines.
Xot a word was said to refute any of the
charges which were made by Mr. Long,
and by his silence upon the subject he left
the impression in Ha/Jeton that every
statement made in the Sentinel was true
and undeniable.
A KISING young Louisville journalist
who works on one of the morning pam
pers has a fondness for loud clothes,
which sometimes puts him in peculiar
situations. A few days ago, we are
told, he was sent to report the funeral
of an eminent divine and appeared at
the grave in a blue suit with a pink
shirt and a crimson tie. He wore no
vest, but his enormous cane, bright
yellow shoes and broad hat with a red,
white and blue band around it amply
supplied the deficiency. His appear
ance created no little astonishment
among the sorrowing relatives, and
the undertaker quietly asked if lie had
not made a mistake. To the credit of
the young man it must be recorded
that he replied that he had not, and
that it was the corpse that had made
an error in being buried where ho
would have to report the funeral.

CZAR IMPROVING.
Favorable Reports Concerning the
Condition ot the Monarch.
Washington, Oct. 29.—Prince Can
tucuzene, the Russian minister to the
United States received the following
. utisfactory bulletin as to the condi
tion of the Russian emperor from the
minister of foreign affairs:
St Petersburg. Oct. 29.—The emperor
slept well on Friday night. Yesterday
the appetite was good and function of
the heart was more satisfactory. Gen
eral condition better. Oedema has not
increased." Prince Cantacuzene feels
very greatly encouaged at the re
ceipt of this telegram, which carries
the story of the emperor's condition
down to Saturday night, the fact that
the emperor- is improving, however,
slightly. Is In itself a matter for
congratulation and encourages the hope
that he may ultimately recover. The
further fact that the marriage of the
Crown Prince and the Princess Alix
has not been cbnsumated is regarded
in diplomatic circles as additional proof
that the emperor's condition is not as
as has been reported. Had his
(hath been imminent the wedding
would not have been expedited. It's
postponement justifies the belief that
the emperor is improving and that the
hope is being indulged by his family
that he may rally sufficiently to be
present.
MARSACH rSFTTR' EPI DEM ICS.
Diphtheria of a Malignant Type and
Scarlet Fever.
Boston, Oct. 29.—Scarlet fever Is
prevalent throughout the state and In
a number of towns schools have been
closed In consequence. The disease is
epidemic, but not of a serious type,
and there is apparently no large in
crease over the number of cases last
year.
The type of diphtheria in the state
is a seemingly severe one, and there is
more occasion to fear it than the scar
let fever. Boston is undergoing a ser
ious epidemic of diseases. The ages of
the sufferers vary from one to twelve
years. It is moreover, of a malignant
type, and the death rate has been
large.
The board of health is taking espec
ial precautions to prevent contagion.
This week 116, new cases of diphtheria
and 24 deaths by this cause are re
ported. The wards of the city hospital
arc so crowded that twenty-five persons
suffering with diphtheria have been de
nied admission.
Earthquake in Argentina.
New York, Oct. 29. —The Herald's
special cable from Buenos Ay res says:
At one minute past 5 o'clock a sharp
shock of earthquake wag felt in Buenos
Ay res, which greatly alarmed the resi
dents. The centre of the seismic dis
turbance seems to have been In San
Juan de la Frontera, the capital of the
province of San Juan, a city of about
9,000 inhabitants. Churches, theatres,
schools, government offices and private
houses were thrown down and the
streets were filled with debris. Many
persons were killed and injured and
th people of the town are In a perfect
panic. The shock was felt at twenty
minutes past four, the direction being
south. The earthquake was felt at La
Paz, in the province of Mendoza, at
twenty-three minutes past four.
By Pistol and Rope.
New York, Oct. 29.—George F. Kat*
terson, fifty-five years old, of Putnam
avenue. Brooklyn, commited suicide at
his residence late Saturday night by
shooting himself through the head. He
formerly worked as a sugar refiner
but had been sick for several years
and had grown despondent on that
account. He leaves a widow and two
children. Mrs. Alba A. Gunddig, a
Pole, twenty-five years old, was found
hanging from a cloths line fastened
in a doorway in her apartments on
Fifth avenue, Brooklyn, yesterday by
her husband. She left a communication
statclng that her husband's dissipated
habits had driven her to take her life.
Industrial Situation ui Jamestown.
Jamestown, N. Y., Oct. 29.—The in
dustrial situation in Jamestown is in
a flourishing condition. Every factory
is running full time and and many
are running over-time. The Vander
grift Manufacturing co., manufactur
ers of machinery are rushed with or
ders and are working over-time. They
expect to add two more large bul'd
ir.gs to increase their capicity. Other
manufacturers report the same con
dition of affairs.
