FREELAND TRIBUNE.
VOL. VII. NO. 98.
BEFORE THE GOVERNOR.
NEW COUNTY BILL HAS PASSED THE
DANGER OF DEFEAT.
No More Trouble to Re Feared from the
Legialature—Tlie Measure Won by a
Vote of 100 to 00—Full Text of the
Rill That CauHed So Much Excitement
A dispatch to the TmnuNK at 12.47 p
m. on Thursday brought tho first report
to Froeland of the success of the Quay
county bill at Ilarrisburg. Tho news
soon spread rapidly, pleasing those whe,
were favorable to the measure and dis
appointing those who made themselves
conspicuous by their futile opposition.
The result, however, did not create an)
particular excitement here, but in some
other portions of the new county dis
district it did. At Ilazletou the build
lugs were decorated, Hags were raised,
cannons boomed and a general suspen
slon of business was the order of tin
day. Until late in the evening the peo
ple crowded the streets and enthusias
tically celebrated the new county's
hard-won victory.
The bill was called up by Representa
tive Jeffrey between 11 and 12 o'clock.
Representative Shrink, of Schuylkill,
one of tho opponents, stated ho was
ready to let it go to a vote, as nothing
further could be said on tho subject.
Mr. Jeffrey said ho represented 70,000
people who had asked for tho bill, and
then the voting began.
Toward the end it became apparent
that the result would be very close. All
over the house hundreds were keeping
tally. As the last name was called the
bill had 102 votes, just one less than was
necessary to pass it.
Then a scene of intense excitement
prevailed. The friends and foes ran out
after the absent members. Every por
tion of the capitol was scoured. The
railroad and corporation lobbyists were
paralyzed with surprise, and they nearly
fainted when Representative Smith, of
Bedford, changed his vote from no to
aye, followed by Representative Wiebel,
of Berks, and Representative Ellis, of
Lebanon. The Schuylkill members, be
fore giving up the fight, protested
against the count, and were severely
reprimanded by Speaker Walton.
The ofticial result was then announced,
showing the vote to bo 10(1 for the bill
and 09 against. It is now before Gov
ernor Hastings, who has appointed June
20 as a date to hear the arguments of its
friends and opponents.
The territory of the new county dis
district is not yet definitely known. It is
supposed that from Luzerne it will take
the city of Hazleton, the boroughs of
Freeland, Jeddo, West Ilazleton, White
Haven and Shickshinny, and the town
ships of Black Creek, Bear Creek, But
ler, Conyngham, Dorrauce, part of Den
ison, Foster, Ilazle, Nescopeck, New
port, Buck, Sugar Loaf, Slocuin, Salem.
Union and Ilunlock; from Schuylkill will
be taken the townships of Union, North
Union, East Union, Kline and Rush. '
Politically, the new county will prob
ably be Democratic. The state ticket
in 1893 had a majority of 1,172 in the
new county district, 804 in the Luzerne
end and 308 in the Schuylkill section.
The Republican wave last year reduced
these figures, and it is now much lower.
Text of the 1111! uh Passed.
Below will be found the full text of
the bill. Our readers will find it very
convenient for reference during the
next few months:

on a tour of inspection through No. 1

waiting to give the youngster a vote.

lieries to Berwick or Bloomshurg when
tho new county is established.
HIGHLAND DOTS.
Tho miners have plonty of time this
month to tend to their potato patches.
So long as credit at the company store
holds out no one seems disposed to com
plain. All hope of ever working a full
week or seeing a dollar they could call
their own has been abandoned by those
who intend to spend their remaining
days in this village.
The night employes around the col
lieries do not take kindly to the twelve
o'clock visits of their superiors. Some
body may he mistaken for somebody else
some night. Better drop it, gentlemen,
and have more confidence in the work
ers.
Nicholas Cabbage, of this place, an

John McGiuness has resigned as fire
man at No. 1 breaker. "Jack" is a
strong and healthy young man, but ho
objects to doing two men's work for one

him the proposition stated, he promptly
sent in his notice and joined the High
land branch of that popular order, tho
Seekers of a Shady Tree.
Beware of Ointments for Catarrh
that contain mercury, as mercury will
surely destroy the sense of smell and
completely derange the whole system
when entering It through the mucous
surfaces. Such articles should never ho
used except on prescriptions from reput
able physicians, as the damage they will
do is ten-fold to the good you can possi
bly derive from them. Hall's Catarrh
Cure, manufactured by F. J. Cheney &
Co., Toledo, ()., contains no mercury,
and is taken internally, acting directly
upon the blood and mucous surfaces of
the system. In buying Hall's Catarrh

torday morning. The Travelers won
again, the score standing 22 to 18. In
tho afternoon the Travelors took the
Drtfton Hustlers into camp, 18 to 8. The
Travelers are a heavy-hitting team, and
none of the pitchers pitted against
them yot have puzzled them.
The management of tho Tigers claims
it Is very hard to arrange games this
season. Professional clubs can be so
cured only on certain dates, and the
quality of most amateur teams Is not
high onough to be worthy of any con
sideration.
