A NATURALIZATION MILL
CITIZENS' PAPERS GRANTED AC
CORDING TO THE DEMAND.
Voters Wore Scarce In Wilkps-llarre
Township on Election Day, and I*eter
011 inn's Family Aunumed the Tower of
Conferring the .Right'to Vote.
Up In Wilkes-Barro township, which
is located the other side of Luzerne's
county seat, lives a man who for some
years has been known as a shrewd poli
tician. His assistance has been be
scoched by candidates of all parties in
local and county elections, and thougli
hold in no especial esteem by his neigh
bors his influence was supposed to be
far-reaching and powerful. Tho candi
date who stood well with Peter Quinn,
the township "boss," was considered
sure of a rousing majority, and until
lately there was 110 one to dispute his
sway. For years Peter has beqn engag
ed in making and unmaking candidates
in the township over which he ruled,
and the peoplo submited quietly to his
dfctates until he announced that he
himself proposed to enter tho political
arena and become a candidato. Peter
selected the offico of school director as
the 0110 most befitting his position, prob
ably because his qualifications for it
were loss than for any other, but against
this presumption rose a murmur of dis
approval which grew and grew as tho
time for making nominations ap
proached.
In politics Quinn was classed as a
Democrat., but among his acquaintances
they say it was hard to tell in what
party to find him on election day. How
ever, to the Democratic convention he
went, only to be rejected uncermonious
ly, and a like fate met his candidacy
with the Republicans. Quinn could not
stand such ingratitude, and called upon
a few of ills devoted followers, and the
"Citizens Party" was formed. Peter was
nominated unanimously, and when as
sured a place on the ballot he began a
contest which aroused tho politics of the
township to a fever heat, but tho op
position against him gained strength
daily, and tho outlook was *lark for tho
"boss."
Peter tried all his arts on tho voters,
but the fow who would listen to his
claims discouraged him. Ho still held a
strong hold upon the "foreign" vote, and
on tiiis alone lie relied for victory. As
election day came nearer ho counted
noses, for and against, as nearly as lie
cou|d fathom tho feelings of the citizens,
and lie found himself in the minority by
at least thirty votes. For a day or two
ho thought, of withdrawing from tin
field, but this intention was abandoned
as 110 imagined how joyously such action
Would be received. Victory was in sight
if thirty votos could bo had. Could he
get them? Was the question lie asked
himself over and over. Again he count
ed tho "foreign" vote, still ho was short;
but he made a difcovory which set him
thinking harder than lie over thought
before.
In the towhship wore fully fifty Poles
and Huns who were not naturalized.
AVliy not have them vote for him, lie
said. But how? lie told his son John
of tho discovery. John is a bright
young man who has imbibed the schem
ing nature of his dad, and between tho
two a plot was soon formed.
When election day came Peter's coun
tenance wore a cheerful look, ono that
surprised his opponents, and they sus
pocted trickery somewhere. The op
position had also counted tho voters and
believed they could beat Quinn on a
straight vote, and they could not under
stand why the "bo*s" appeared so con
fident. As tho hours passed 011 the vote
of the township grew larger and larger,
and men came and went in groups, men
who could not speak English and knew
nothing about elections or school direc
tors. But each of them carried a brand
now naturalization paper and this was
thrust in tho faces of tho watchers by
Peter's lieutenants when they chal
lenged.
Finally the voting was finished, and
the result showed that Quinn was elect
ed by a splendid majority. There was
great rejoicing among the followers, and
In their estimation tho "boss" was ten
fold greater than before. So far all
went well, and the Quinns, having grown
careless in their delight, forgot to cover
up the schemes by which they won.
Tho man who had charge of the un
naturalized voters was named William
Ambrose, a Polish saloon-keeper. He
had become dissatisfied with the bargain
lie had been a party to, and lie took ono
of tho naturalization papers he had used
to P. M. Gilligan, of Wilkes-Barro, who
suspected it was not genuine. To de
cide upon it Mr. Gilligan showed tho
paper to A. L. Stanton, ox-clcrk of tho
courts, whose name was affixed. Stan
ton pronounced the paper a forgery, and
immediately an investigation was began
which may cut Qulnn's political careor
vory short and give him a term in tho
penitentiary instead of on tho school
board.
Ambrose hud several of tho naturali
zation papers still in his possession,
which ho turned over to Alderman
Thomas. With these as ovidonco Quinn
was arrested for forgery, and some in
teresting developments came out at tho
hearing last week. It was shown that
Quinn, in some manner, secured fifty
naturalization blanks, while his son
John, who was given a clerkship in Dis
trict Attorney Fell's olllco, for his
father's treachery to P. A. O'Boyle last
November, secured the gold seals. The
seals were then attached to the blanks,
and Quinn's daughter filled out the
names 011 the papers from the list of un
naturalized foreigners given her by hor
father. Alderman Kirk's seal was bor
rowed during the absence of that oflicer
from home, and stamped with this the
papers presented all the appearance of
genuine documents. Ambrose took
charge of the distribution, and used
thirty-two of them —enough to elect
Peter Quinn school director. All this
was proven at the hearing, and Alderman
Thomas held the ü boss" in SSOO bail for
a furthor hearing.
On Friday afternoon the family was
taken to Alderman Thomas' office, but
little additional information was secured,
as the witnesses, Peter's son and two
daughters, refused to answer any ques
tions, taking the ground that their
replies might criminate thomselves.
Their refusal donotod that they know
considerable about the affair, and Peter's
bail was increased to SI,OOO for his ap
pearance at court. Bail was furnished
and Attorney Lenahan announced that ]
action would bo brought against the
family in the United States courts in a i
fow weeks.
The discovery of the naturalization
mill has croated consternation among ;
the politicians of tho township. Attor
ney John T. Lenahan has been engaged !
by the commonwealth to prosecute Quinn j
and ho is collecting evidence which will
implicate the whole family. The offense
is a serious one and if convicted the
Quinns will likely receive severe punish
ment.
The New County of Grow.
From tho Shickshinny Echo.
Before the close of this week a peti
tion will be filed with the secretary of in
ternal affairs asking for a new county
to be formed out of Luzerne to bo called
Grow, after Galusha A. Grow, now con
grsssman-at-large from Pennsylvania.
The new county will bo asked for under
the Lackawanna act, wliich provides
for tho division of counties containing
a population of 150,000 or more. It is
proposed to take in on the west side of
the Susquehanna, Salem, Shickshinny,
Union, Hunlock, Ross, Huntington,
Fairmount, New Columbus, part of Leh
man and on the oast side, part of New
port, Conyngham, Ilollenback, Denni
son, Slocum, Butler, Black Creek and
Noscopeck. This would make a practi
cally agricultural county freo from tho
excessive expense of a foreign popula
tion. With the county scatjocatcd at
Shickshinny, which is the centre of the
territory, it could be reached from the
farthest point in loss than twenty miles.
While most of the pooplo in the town
ships would prefer old Luzerne to re
main as she is, of the lesser evils of divi
sion they prefer that Grow which would
not be expensivo in its management and
where three-fourths of the voters are
property owners.
AriOHtcil for Throwing SnowltallH.
Yesterday was a perfect spring day,
and the snow that remained around
here was of the kind to make snow
balling a pleasant pastime. A number
of young men engaged in tho sport at
Centre and South streets in the after
noon, but they carried it too far and
many persons were struck who were
not interested in their play. Matters
finally went so far that tho attention of
the police was called and three of the
participants wore placed under arrest
and fined $2 each. The news quickly
spread through town and few snowballs
were thrown during the remainder of
the day. The ofiieers were commended
for their prompt action in stopping this
dangerous practico.
Very Low at the HoHpltul.
John Cull, a well-known young man
of Jeddo, and a son of Ilenry Cull, of
that place, is lying very low in Hazloton
hospital. About two weeks ago he be
came troubled with pains in his stomach,
which he considered to be cramps, and
procured medicine to relieve them. The
medicine failed to have any oiToct and
tTie pains continued to increase. Dr.
Kalb, of Jeddo, was then called and af
ter an examination announced that an
orange or lemon seed was lodged in the
young man's intestines. John was taken
to Hazloton hospital 011 Wednesday, and
on Friday an operation was performed.
Whether this will prove successful can
not yet be learned. Ills condition now
is very low.

DRIFTON ITEMS.
A petition was circulated through the
Foster township portion of this place
last week for tho purpose of protesting
against the action of the Foster town
ship school board, which body lias given
the Catholic societies of Eckley permis- .
sion to use tho school house at that place 1
for celebrating St. Patrick's Day. The
petition, with a request to tho directors
to revoke their action, will be presented
to tho board. It is said tho petition con
tains tho names of many persons who
are neither taxpayors or residents of the
township.
The Beers' residence was lively one
evening last week with young folks who
gathered for tho purpose of celebrating
tho fifteenth anniversary of Miss Lizzie

ments were served to all present, after
which they departed for their homes
wishing Miss Beers many happy roturns
of the day.

Tho walking over the trolley trostlings
at this place has not diminished any by
tho number of accidents that have hap
pened by men falling from them. It is
mostly foreign speaking people who
have this habit and if the notices to the
public were printed in Slavish those
people might give up tho practice.
Tho running of D. S. & S. trains to
Perth Amboy has provon very successful,

The Coal War Is Cowing;.
A mooting of the general traffic man
agora and their assistants of the Lehigh
Valley and Jersey Central Railroads was
held at Bethlehem on Friday. Tho con
ference was in reference to the embargo
placed on theso companies' coal by the
Philadelphia and Reading, which wont
into effect this morning. The meeting
lasted the greater part of the morning
and afternoon. President E. P. Wilbur,
of the Lehigh Valley, was also present.
At the conclusion all inquirers wero re
ferred to President Wilbur.
The latter gave out the following
statement, signed by the general traffic
managers of the two roads: "We have
agreed upon a new tariff on coal to East
Pcnn Junction and Bethlehem, the rates
to bo substantially the same as those
now prevailing on the Lehigh Valley
and Central Railroad of New Jersey.
The exact rates will bo announced next
Monday, when the new tariff will go
into effect." This action of the traffic
managers is regarded as an indication
that the Lehigh Valley and Central pro
pose to Jight the Reading. Neither of
the officials would say anything further
about the matter.
Rumors were current to the effect that
a continuance of the present trouble
meant a receivership for the Lehigh
Valley Company, but this was emphatic
ally denied by officials of tho company,
who said there was not the slightest
reason to even apprehend such a calam
ity. Financial men, however, can see
nothing in the coming coal war to help
tho Valley, and the stock in Philadel
phia market on Friday sold down from
29% to 27}£, the lowest price it has
reached sinco 1877. A week ago it was
selling at 33.
To add to the trouble the New York,
Lake Erie and Western Railroad has
served notice on other roads that no
more coal will bo accepted at former
rates. An arbitrary rate has beon fixed
to koop coal from competitors out of its
territory. Unless peace is patched up
soon the long looked for coal war will be
on in earnest, and the miners will be
happy if it will give them steadier work.
To Invent{gate Keeley Curen.
The principal item of interest to
which the attention of the members of
the house of representatives was called
on Friday was a resolution introduced
by Mr. Millard, of Susquohanna, which
hosaUleame from the Catholic temper
ance organizations of his county. It
reads as follows:
Whereas, Drunkenness is said to bo
an increasing evil in the land and to
present one of the most serious features
of the problem of caring for tho criminal
and indigent classes by direction and
under control of the state, and
Whereas, It is now being widely
maintained that drunkenness is more
often a disease than a moral frailty or
crime, and can be cured by scientific
medical treatment, therefore bo it
Resolved, If tho senate concur, that
the state board of public chartios be,
and is hereby, authorized and empower
ed to make most careful inquiry into the
matter of the treatment of drunkenness
as a disease, and is instructed to make a
report to the general assembly at the
session of 1897 as to the efficacy of such
treatment so far as can be determined,
and whether it is feasible to apply any
of the existing methods of treatment, or
some modification thereof, in connection
with tho management of tho penal,
charitable and reformatory institutions
of tho state.
Tho following was offered as an
amendment:
Resolved, That we send all the old
drunkards in the stato to tho Kooly in
stitutes at tho expense of the common
wealth.
This amendment was laid on the table
and the original resolution passed unani
mously.
A IJJg Ihkuo of County lloiklh.
Arrangements are being completed by
tho county commissioners to issue bonds
to tho amount of $400,000 to moot the
cost of tho new court house. Tho bonds
will bo issued in a short timo and will be
at 3or 3% per cent. They will probably
be of $5,00Q, SI,OOO, SSOO and SIOO do
nominations. It has not been definitely
decided when the bonds will maturo, but
they will bo for oithor twonty-fivo or
thirty years. The commissioners stato
that as tho now court house will cost
more, perhaps a good deal more, than
SIOO,OOO, there will be a socond issuo of
bonds of a sufficient amount to cover
tho difference between the $400,000 and
the total cost of the building. This
second issue will not bo made, however,
until tho building is complotod. Tho
commissioners say they believe the
bonds will find a ready sale. They havo
not decided when to maktvthe Issue, but
will do so in a short timo.

is now complete for the coming spring,
and the price and quality will bo found
just right. It costs no more to wear
good hats of the latest style than to buy
shelf-worn goods made years ago. Olsho
