NOTES AND COMMENT
POLITICAL MATTERS FORM SUBJECTS
FOR PASSING OPINIONS.
Popular Sentiment Rapidly Drifting To
ward* the Democratic Candidate for
Poor Director—How the Campaign Is
Progressing in the Borough.
As election day draws near the senti
ment of tho voters of the middle coal
field poor district becomes more and
more favorable to John Schwartz, the
Democratic candidate for director. In
fact, it is hard to understand how en
lightened and intelligent people could
foel otherwise when tho circumstances
surrounding tho contest are fairly sifted.
On tho one side is soon a broad, liberal
minded citizen, who has proven Jiis
honesty, ability and intelligence as a
business man in tho city of Hazleton; a
man who is esteemed and respected by
all parties in his own home, whero ail
men are best known; a man to whom
the earo of the poor and altlictod of the
community can be safely entrusted; a
man in whose hands the finances of this
great district will bo safo and secure,
and who possesses tho judgment to ex
pend tho people's money as tho law
makers intended it should be. Mr.
Schwartz is the candidato of one of the
great political parties of tho country,
not the tool of a clique at whose bidding
mon must sacrifice their manhood and
become slaves of ignorant and seliish
masters. His past record, public and
private, is as clean as falling snow, and
to socuro his nomination he did not have
to take an oath against his better judg
ment, an oath which makes men no
longer froo to mote out justice to their
fellow-men, but which arrays them in
bitter strife against their friends and
neighbors. Should Mr. Schwartz be
come tho next director ho can take his
ofiico witii a clear conscience and give
his assent to tho legal obligation with
the honest intention of fulfilling it.
When tho cry of needy humanity arises
ho can go to its aid with alms, without
stopping to inquiro into tho creed or
nationality of the sufferer. His heart,
tongue and hands aro not bound by ties
that shrink from the light of day. He
will have to account to no one but his
constituents for his actions, becauso
John Schwartz is an American citizen
who realizes and appreciates his oath of
allegiance to his adopted country and is
too manly to become tho creature of
dishonest men or tho accomplice of a
proscriptivo association.
In the borough tho only ofllco which
is attracting tho attention of all tho
voters is that of justice of tho peace. -It
is a position which Frocland citizens
have on several occasions proven that
they regard above political lines. As
thO'torm is for iivo years it is one which
good care should be exorcised in filling.
The Democrats have nominated for
justice a young man who possesses all
tho requisites to creditably fill the officp,
and the pooplo of town will make no
mistake when they eloct Hugh Shovlin.
Friends of his opponent are fondly delud
ing themselves with tho hope that tho
exciting primaries which the Democrats
held would ongender a bitterness which
would crop out on election day. This
bitterness, however, exists nowhero but
in the minds of those who desire that it
could be made a reality. Mr. Shovlin
was tho choice of a majority of tho
party and his nomination has not been
questioned; therefore, since he has the
ability necessary for the position, he is
entitled to and will receive the support
of alt Democrats. Were he incompetent
and unfit to become a justice the Repub
licans would have good grounds to look
forward for a revolt in his party, but as
no man can say one word against his
character or education lie has nothing
to fear in his own ranks. It will sur
prise only tho very few who cannot seo
the drift of popular feeling if Mr. Shov
lin has less than 100 majority.
A splendid uphill light Is being made
In the North ward. There the Demo
crats have a large Republican majority
to contend with, but the candidates
have accoptod their task like men and
the campaign they are making is bound
to-have its effect on election day. While
many othors would bo disheartened,
Democratic nominees have found hope
In the prospoct, and not without reason,
for Republican discontent in the upper
part of town is now so clear that extra
efforts have to be resorted to to prevent
an open break. M. E. Frltzinger, who
Is on tho ticket for school director, is
one of the most popular young men in
town, and his friends are not confined
to one political party. He is equipped
to take hold of any position in the bor
ough, but in none would ho probably
have a bettor opportunity to display his
ability and talents than on the school
board. Ho is young and progressive,
awake to tho needs of education, and
his vote would never be lacking when
one is required to uphold honest manage
ment and upright methods. Am an who
can do his duty independently and fear
lessly in his capacity as school director
should not be turned down by the voters,
and such a man Is the Democratic can
didate. Against his opponent not s

COUNCIL MEETING.
Several Mutters of Public Interest Taken
Up on Monday Evening.
Tho council mooting on Monday even
ing was attended by Messrs. Moore,
McLaughlin, Neuburgcr, Ruttcr and
Brislin. After the routine business was
transacted Borough Solicitor Carr re
quested, on behalf of tho Board of
Trade, that a committee be appointed to
meet a similar committee from that body
to discuss tho question of annexing an
other portion of Foster township, east
of the borough, including tho site of tho
proposed silk mill. Messrs. Neuburgcr,
Butter, McLaughlin and Brislin were
appointed for tho purpose. They are to
view tho territory mentioned and report
to council soon as possible.
Mr. Neuburgcr made another vigorous
plea to have some action taken in the
matter of collecting tho money due the
borough by ex-Tax Collector Woodrjng.
The. council decided to request Mr.
Woodring and his bondsmen to meet the
borough solicitor at the latter's office
this evening, and if no satisfactory set
tlement is made by that time the attor
ney is to enter proceedings against the
ex-collector.
The committee appointed to draft an
ordinanco covering the duties of the fire
department reported progress. The so
licitor and secretary were authorized to
reviso the present borough ordinances,
and when completed to present them to
council for further action.
The committee on sower pipes report
ed they had examined all bills from the
manufacturer, and had issued an order
for the amount, less the freight. The
secretary reported having certified to
the county commissioners as to ex-Tax
Collector Moore's bond and notified them
to have the same cancelled.
The burgess was instructed to pre
vent coasting and skating on the bor
ough sidewalks as much as possible.
Street Commissioner Furey reported
that the amount of work on the streets
in January amounted to $30.01, which
was approved. Treasurer Fritzinger's
report showed the January receipts to
be $40.").81; orders paid, $380.00; balance,
$10.72.
The following bills were ordered paid:
M. ilalpin, ladders and repairs, $10.93;
Electric Light Company, January light,
$225; Washburn and Turnback, repairs
on tools, $14.05; James Gallagher, re
moving one dog, 50 cents; TRIBUNE,
publishing ordinance, $2.38; Progress,
publishing ordinances, $0.51.
A special meeting will bo held on tbo
24th inst. to examine Tax Collector Mai
loy's accounts.
False and Unwarranted Rumor*.
The statements published in several
papers this week regarding the trouble
that our townsman, Chas. Dusheck, has
had with a man by the name pf Olyea
have been outrageously exaggerated and
arc unwarranted by the facts of the
case. Mr. Dusheck is treasurer of St.
Mary's Co-operative Store Association,
an organization which was formed by
several members of the Greek Catholic
congregation in 1801.' Among the mem
bers of the store association was Olyea,
who subscribed and paid $3OO for twelve
shares of the company's stock. Re
cently he desired to withdraw and de
manded of Mr. Dusheck-the $3OO ho paid
in 1801. The treasurer had no authority
to comply with this demand, and having
sufficient stock himself, refused to buy
it. Failing to secure his money, which
with other money received from the sale
of other shares, had been expended in
purchasing the land, erecting the store
building, procuring a stock of goods and
keeping the concern in operation, Olyea
on Saturday had Mr. Dusheck arrested
at Wilkesbarro for the $3OO. Rail was
immediately entered in town when the
warrant was sorvod.
The rumors that wero given credence
by newspapers which thirst for sensa
tional matter made it appear that Mr.
Dusheck was a private banker who had
swindled his countrymen out of their
deposits, that he had become insolvent
and that the liabilities amounted to over
$30,000. Nothing could be further from
the truth, as Mr. Dusheck has not done
a banking business of any kind, except
that in his position as director of the
Citizens' bank. He has acted as treas
urer of the storo association since 1891
without any remuneration for his ser
vices. The accounts and money have
been examined by the association's offi
cials and all are stated to bo perfectly
correct. Mr. Dusheck's high standing
among the peoplo of town will bo no
way impaired by the sensational items
that are going the rounds, but as their
publication may lower him in the esti
mation of those who do not know hi in
as well as his neighbors he feels indig
nant at the liberty nowspapors have
taken with his name. Mr. Dusheck's
personal and business affairs are in a
perfectly sound condition, and this can
be voriliod by an examination of the
records of his oxtonsivo real ostato hold
ings.

HEALTH BOARD MEETING.
MEMBERS INTEND TO INSIST THAT
THE LAWS BE OBEYED.
Health Officer Ward's Report for Janu
ary Shows That a Total of Twenty-two
Cases of Diphtheria Hud Rcen Report
ed During Last Mouth.
Tho regular monthly meeting of tho
Board of Health was held at the office
of Dr. F. Schilchor, on Friday even
ing of fast week, every momber of
the board and the health officer being
present. After the minutes of previous
meeting wero approved Health Officer
Ward made his monthly report, as fol
lows: That twenty-two cases of diph
theria had been reported to him since
the last meeting of tho board, and that
two of them had died and wore interred
with all necessary precautions under his
supervision; that acute cases of the
disease existed at this time in the fami
lies of Oliver Reinsmith, Chestnut street;
Condy McLaughlin, Adams streot; Fran
cis Brennan, Centre streot, and James
F. Ledger and James Richards, Coxc
addition; that scarlet fever had been re
ported existing in the family of Ador
Leippert, Johnson street; that all homes
containing contagious and infectious
diseases had been duly placarded ac
cording to law, and that ho had offered
a reward for the arrest and conviction
of any person tearing down such notices
or visiting infected houses without au
thority from him or the attending phy
sician.
1). J. McCarthy, on behalf of the
school board, explained that on account
of the appearance of diphtheria in the
family of which Miss McLaughlin, a
teacher, is a member, he, in company
with tho secretary of tho school board,
waited upon the president and secretary
of the Board of Health, and In accord
ance with their instructions tho school
had been closed and tho teacher was in
structed to keep away from the infected
house until the attending physician had
declared all danger of further infection
passed.
The secretary then read a communi
cation from the secretary of the State
Board of Health, calling the attention
of the local board to important laws
passed by the late legislature, as follows:
Act No. 124, entitled "an act to provide
for the more effectual protection of the
public health in the several municipali
ties of the commonwealth," which en
ables local boards to act by direct au
thority of the state in all matters per
taining to the control of contagious and
infectious diseases and making obliga
tory upon physicians the prompt reports
of such diseases, of health cortiiicatos
from attending physicians for the re
admission of children to school after
having suffered from or being exposed
to the diseases, and of cortiiicates of
vaccination for the admission of chil
dren to school; act No. 133, entitled "an
act authorizing Boards of Health in
cities and boroughs of this common
wealth to regulate house drainage, the
registration of journeymen and master
plumbers, and the construction of cess
pools;" act No. 203, which provides for
the prevention of blindness through the
neglect of those having care of infants.
After a general discussion of the above
points, the following motions were made
and carried: In regard to act No. 124,
that the requiring of reports from phy
sicians and health certificates for tho
schools concerning contagious and in
fectious disoases should be moro rigidly
enforced, and that, although the res
ponsibility of the vaccination regulation
devolves primarily upon tho school
board, the president should appoint a
member of the Board of Health to look
up the state laws regarding compulsory
vaccinnation and report at tho next
meeting; and that the undertakers of
the town should moot tho Board of
Health at an early date aii'd see if soino
better understanding could bo arrived
at, so that tho law regarding the regis
tration of undortakors and the speedy
and strictly private funerals of persons
dying from communicable diseases
should be more rigidly enforced without
unduly influencing one man's business
more than anothor.
Regarding tho act bearing on plumb
ers, it was decided that the secretary
write to every plumber working in the
town and call his attention to the act,
and notifying him to register in a book
to be provided for that purpose by tho
Board of Health, and that he shall in
form the secretary of any contract for
any sanitary plumbing relating to houso
or cesspool drainage which he may un
dertake inside the borough limits, so
that tho health officer can supervise tho
work and see that it is done according
to the proper regulations.
Action 011 the law relating to blind
ness from inflammation of infants' eyes
was deferred until the next moeting.
When Baby was sick, wo gave her Castoria.'
When Bhe was a Child, she cried for Castoria.
When she became Miss, she clung to Castoria.
When she had Children, fhe gave them Castoria
Strictly fresh eggs at Oswald's store.

tors Held Last Keening.

of the Coxe Memorial school, for books
was ordered to be investigated, arid if

them to procure the supplies. Tho fol

Tho closing of Miss McLaughlin's
school was explained by President Mc-
Carthy, who stated that after a confer
ence with tho president and secretary of
tho Hoard of Health it was deemed ad
visable to prevent her from toaching for ,
awhile. Diphtheria had appeared at
her home and to avoid all danger she
had been requested to take up her abode
elsewhere for a week. This was done 1
hy tho teacher and sho reopened her 1
school last Monday. 1

Deafness Cannot bo Curod
by local applications, as they cannot
reach tho diseased portion of the ear.
There is only one way to euro deafness,
and that is by constitutional remedies.
Deafness is caused by an inflamed con
dition of the mucous lining of tiie
eustachian tube. When this tube pets
inflamed you have, a rumbling sound or
imperfect hearing, and when it is entire
ly closed deafness is the result, and un
less the inllauiation can bo taken out
and this tube restored to its normal con
dition, hearing will bo destroyed for
ever; nine cases out of ten are caused by
oatarrah, which is nothing but an in
flamed condition of the mucous surfaces,

any case of deafness (caused by catarrh)
that cannot he cured by Hall's Catarrh
