THE GOVERNOR'S VETO.
HASTINGS' REASONS FOR TURNING
DOWN QUAY COUNTY.
Think* Tlint Taxpayer. Would Suffer and
Hie Division Would benefit Only a
Pew-Alito Consider* It Speciul LctfHlii.
tlnn—lfnw the Newt Wu. Kccelv, d
Governor Hastings 011 Thursday even
ing vetoed the bill by whieh the proposed
now county was to be formed out of por
tions of Luzerne and Schuylkill, llelow
Is the statement of the governor In ex
planation of his act:
"This bill by Its title Is general in
character. It Is untitled 'an act to pro
vide for the erection and organization ol
new counties out of two or more adjoin
ing counties and prescribing the manner
In which the same may be done.' An
examination of the body of the bill, how
ever, discloses this language: 'Provided
further, that in the construction of any
sncli new county no connty from which
It Is formed or partly formed shall be
reduced In population below 55,000 In
habitants, as ascertained by the last
preceding decennial census.' The con
stitutional limitation upon the formation
of new counties Is that 'No new county
shall be established which shall reduce
any county to less than 400 sipiarn miles
or to less than 20,000 inhabitants, nor
shall any county be formed of loss area
or containing a loss population, nor
shall any lino thereof pass within ten
tulles of the county seat of any county
proposed to bo divided.'
"This bill has received very patient
consideration. Its advocates and oppon
ents have been heard at length, and It
Is conceded by tho friends of the meas
ure that, if it were to become a law, it
would at present bo applicable to but a
single locality In tho commonwealth.
The adjoining counties of Luzurne and
Schuylkill, it Is claimed, are the only
counties that could furnish the necessary
area and population, and neither be re
duced below 55,000 inhabitants, as re
quired by the bill. This measure was
argued, therefore, before the executive
with reference to a proposed new county
to be formed by adding a part of Schuyl
kill to a part of Luzerne county, with
llazletou as the proposed county seat,
and without reference to any other
locality.
"After a careful consideration of all
the reasons advanced for and against
the bill I have readied the conclusion
that it is without merit. There seems
to exist 110 necessity for tile legislation.
To permit this bill to become a law and
to become operative upon tho locality
referred to I believe would be exceed
ingly onerous and oppressive to the tax
pavers of the district contained within
the new county limits.
"It has been demonstrated to 1110 that
the taxpaying population of the district
Is not sufficiently large to warrant the
the expense of erecting public buildings
and paying the cost of the administration
of county affairs.
"Those who would be called upon to
pay the taxes are almost unanimously
against the measure, and, while some
inconvenience may obtain at present
for a part of the population to reach the
county seat at \\ ilkesbarre, it is incom
parably less Important than the serious
burdens that would be imposed upon the
taxpayers if the bill were to be approved.
"This act Is so specific in character and
so hedged about by provisos us to make
It applicable to but a single locality in
tho commonwealth, and its constitu
tionality Is therefore more than doubt
ful."
How the News WHS Received.
Reports that tho bill had boon vetoed
were current as early as fi o'clock 011
Thursday evening, but in the absence
of any authentic Information tho anti
new county people delayed the demon
stration until a later hour. At 8 o'clock
the news was accepted as reliable, and
an impromptu celebration was arranged.
The St. Patrick's cornet band paraded
the streets and serenaded some of tho
leading opponents of the bill, fireworks
were set olf and considerable rejoicing
took placo. Justice, however, could not
be done to the event that evening, and a
demonstration on a larger sealo was
started for the following night.
At the same time In Ilazleton the
news was spread which told of Governor
Hastings' action, and tho entire city
was thrown into a state of excitement.
The greatest indignation was manifest
ed, and this feeling was augmented
when the Information came from llar
rlsbtirg that Chris Mageo, tfie Pittsburg
leader, had Induced the governor to
voto the bill, and in return Hastings Is
to be given a solid delegation from Lu
zerne and .Schuylkill counties to aid him
In defeating United States Senator Quay
for stuto chairman of the Republican
party.
Tho crowds 011 Hazleton's streets were
in an angry mood until a late hour.
Their disappointment at what was con
sidered a political trick of the governor
was hard to restrain, and they gavo
vent to their feelings by hanging Mr.
Hastings in efllgy to a lamp post on
Broad street, where tho flguro remained
until Mayor Altmlller ordered It cut
down at II o'clock noxt day.
Friday Nlglit's Celebration.
The details of tho celebration 011 Fri
day evening at Freoland wero arranged
during the day, and early in the ovoning
tho streets began to be filled with slght
soors. By 8 o'clock many of tho busi
ness places were docorated, and there
was fully 3,000 people 011 the streets.
Music for tho parado was furnished by
the Mayborry and St. Patrick's bands
and the Junior Mechanics drum corps.
About seventy horsemen and several ,
carriages wore 111 lipe apd uigde a good
appearance. Very few of tho rojolcors
walked, but the numbers on the side
walks cheered tlioni as they passed.
' Prominont among thoso oil horsebaek
was Hon. William R. Jeffrey, who ac
cepted tho invitation to take part.
Many transparencies were carried.
• Along the line of march fireworks
wore burned In profusion, and it was
one of tho greatest nights the town lias
seen for some years. At the corner of
South and Centro streets the parade
was dismissed, and at tho request of sev
eral citizens an informal meeting was
called to order by James F. Sweeney,
who introduced Joseph Neuburger as
the first speaker. The address was brief
but well delivered. Mr. Neuburger con
gratulated the anti-new county people
upon their victory and predicted a
greator growth for tho town since this
question Is settled.
11. J. McCarthy followed, and In bis
usual style praised the governor for his
voto. He said that the bill deserved
such a fate, because It did not legally
pass tbo bouse of representatives on
third reading, but was counted in by the
clerks and Speaker Walton. He round
ly denounced tho action of the Ilazle
tonlans who hung the governor in effigy,
claiming that their act sustained the
statements of those who protested
against the bill, that life and proporty
in the region could not safely bo en
trusted to tbo care of the men in that
city.
Representative Jeffrey was given poi
misslon to address tho audience, and I
denied the statements of tho previous
speaker so far as they rcforred to
integrity of tho clerks and officers .1
the house. He claimed a constitution .
majority for the bill was secured by
members changing tholr votes. I e\
plnnatloii of bis course in the legislature
lie called attention to the fact that lie
had announced himself as a new county I
man when nominated, and had made no
attempt to be elected by deluding tie
voters. Ho predicted that in 1897 a bill
will be Introduced and passed which will ;
be more liberal than tho one just votoei
This will be done to create a new coir
ty, Monongabela, In the western part (
the statu, and under its provisions a ni
county can be formed from portions
Luzerne and Schuylkill. He closed
stating that if re-elected he will ag
work for a now county for this sect;
J. M. Carr, Esq., was the next i
last speaker. He took the view tha s
the fight is ended tho bitter fee!
which wore created should be allow
die away. Three cheers were given i
Governor Hastings. Tills ended tie
meeting and the night's celebration

| On of t "Ti utf-1 exhibitions of base
ball tho pf >p| hop ever saw was given
at tho 'I ffnt. park yesterday. About

Hall, J late llarrisburg club, the
3 Tigers ;-p MIT. ■ I their regular players
before the fatuous men that comprise
_ the Allontown club, and no eight players
J ever gave a pitcher better support than
Ilall received.
The most that was expected of the
J Tig wis to uphold their repution by

rprised Milligan and his men,
;li •I* iieru-r and themselves, and when
the lust tnau was put out they then
i " Aii < that they had won a brilliant
v i tot yby score of 7to 3.
Jii tho core the local club has two

'• catch a fly ball. Gaffney's was
i <!iu t the uncvonness of the left field,
•i i auscd the ball to bound against
liif hi ast and roll past him. Both er
in were excusable.
On the other side there were five

Allontown worked as hard for the honor
as tiny know how, and tho nearer to

was against them.
The features of the game was the ono
liand catch of Mulvey, the diamond
work of Sweeney and McGarvey, Mc

ON THE DIAMOND.
Freeland rooters' cup of happiness
would have been filled to overflowing if
It was Ilazleton that opposed the Tigers
yesterday. There Is more honor In de
feating Allentowu, but not half tho joy
that would result If the nine from over
the hill had beon given tho dose than
Mllllgan's men received.
Ed Gaffncy made his first appearance
with the Tigers for this season yester
day, and his playing demonstrated that
tho college team of Worcester, Mass., is
In the hands of a good trainer.
Milligan Is anxious to come again.
He says he enjoys to play before an
audience like Freeland turns out. "Our
toam could not bo treated better by your
people or your club," he said last night.
Weathcrly lias been very anxious to
play the Tigers this season. Tho
Travelers play in that town on Thurs
day.
Tho famous stars of the famous leagues
took their defeat gracefully yesterday,
but thoy are aching for revenge.
Hazloton had a large delegation hero
yesterday. They came prepared to rub
It in to Freoland, but had to go home
with their sarcasm unbottled.
Tom Golden, Allontown's ceqtre
fielder, began his bgse ball carour on tho
old Liberty club of Highland, seventeeii
years ago. 110 renewed acquaintances
yesterday with many people about here,
and asks to be rotiioiiibored to tltosc who
played with him 011 the Highland
' diamond.
Drifton Hustlers defeated a Pleasant
' Hill club yesterday, 9to 2.
The Tigers have eight games won
and three lost. Percentage, 727.
Honey Brook was easily defeated by
1 the Fearnots at Drifton 011 Saturday, by
a score of 12 to 5.
The home run made by Welkart was
due to the ball being lost in the under
brush in right field.
Tangled School Affairs.
The compctive examination that has
been decided upon by Freoland school
hoard is not any more popular now than
011 the evening the resolution to hold it
was passed. The teachers who intend
to apply for schools hero must send In
notice 011 or boforo Saturday evening,
stating that they will appear before the
examining board on the 22d inst. It is
said that none of thetoachcrs have given
such notice yet and do not intend to.
County Superintendent Harrison and
ox-County Superintendent Cougbiin have
declined to act as examiners for tiie
Freoland competitive examination.
Superintendent Mulhall, of Ilazle town
ship, lias accepted. The general opinion
is tiiat tho plan will not be carried out.
Tho refusal of the teachers to enter It Is
criticized by some, lint tho majority of
people who speak their views are com
mending them for their action.
It is said there is trouble ahead for the
directors in Foster township. A rumor
is out to the effect that the election of
Mr. Gabrio as superintendent of schools
is tho cause of contention. His eligi
bility to the position is questioned, and
our informant states that objections
have boon filed witli the state superin
tendent at llarrisburg against granting
him a commission. Tho TRIBUNE gives
the minor for what it is worth.
Vacancy on the ltcncli.
From tho Wilkesbarro Record.
The applntmont of President Judge
Charles E. Rice as superior court judge
will leave a vacancy upon the bench of
Luzerne county. Associate Judge Stan
ley W. Woodward will bocorao president
judge, by reason of seniority in point of
service, and Governor Hastings will
appoint an associate judge, to serve un
til- January 1, 1890. Tho county con
ventions will nominate candidates, and
tho people will elect a judge at the
November election, he to take his seat
January 1.
Among tho prominont attorneys who

the governor are Lyinann 11. Hennott,
Isaac P. Hand, George S. Ferris, Gen.
E. S. Osborne, Assistant District Attor

Millionaire's Libel Suit.
John Jcrmyn, the mllllonarlo coal
operator of Scranton, has brought suit
against W. J. Schubmclil, the editor of
the Olyphant Gazette, to recover 810,000
damages for injury alleged to have been
done to him by an article published in
the Gazette 011 Febuury 10, which was
headed, "Smash tho Dickson Ring."
The article made many serious charges
against Mr. Jermyu, Ills son, Joseph,
and M. F. Faddon, president of the Dick
son borough council, alleging that they
wore responsible for a most reprehensible
condition of affairs that existed in con
nection with the conduct of public af
fairs in Dickson borough. The com
bination w.as referred to as a "Huge octo
pus," "A coterie of ring boodlers," "Rot
ten itnd corrupt ling," etc. The article
was printed prior to election.
Now I.umllord ut tlie Cottage.
From the Tamaqun Recorder.
Isaac Fry has resigned his position of
engineer for tho Philadelphia and Read
ing Company, and will on Monday as
sume the proprietorship of tho Cottage
hotel at Freeland. This action of Mr.
Fry is greatly regretted by the officials
of tho Philadelphia and Reading Com
pany, as lie was a fearless as well as a
cautious engineer, not a single engineer
on tho road having a better record. If
Mr. Fry makes one-half as good a land
lord as lie is an engineer, and we haven't
the least doubt he will, his success is
assured.
New anil Old World Circuses,
Our readers will learn by reference
to our advertising columns that Sands &
Astley's new and old world shows are to
exhibit at Froeland on Tuesday, July 9
Comparatively few, however, who refer
to the advertisement are aware of the
fact that these shows have a history tho
most remarkable in amusement annals.
This amusement euterplso Is the out
growth of tiie consolidation of two of tho
largest shows in existence, one an
American tho other a British institution.
In 1890 a jointure was made of Robert
Sands' great American circus and men
agerie witli Herbert Astley's grand
English circus, hippodrome, menagerie,
museum and curio exposition. The
compact was made In tlie city of London,
and after touring England, Ireland, and
Scotland tlie united amusement venture
crossed over to the continent and exhibit
ed In Franco, Belgium, Switzerland,
Holland, Germany. Russia, Turkey, Al
giers, Egypt, China, Japan, the Sand,
wick Islands and is now touring tho Uni
ted States prior to visiting Central Ameri
ca, Mexico and South America. There
Is no show, either In the pastor present,
that has traveled as many thousand
miles, exhibited to such myriads of peo
ple or that lias won a more exalted and
OHyiable reputation.
