never invested in newspaper advertising
quietly drop out of business in Freeland.

eventually overtakes all who think that
they can succeed without using printers' j
ink.

FREELAND, PA., MONDAY, MARCH 9, 1890.
LIQUOR DEALERS ORGANIZE.
Freeland Branch Starts Out With a
Large Number of Members.
At a meeting of the retail liquor
dealers of Freeland on Friday at the
Central hotel a branch of the Retail
Liquor Dealers' Association of Pennsyl
vania was formed. P. H. Nolan, of
Philadelphia, an organizer of tho as
sociation, was present and delivered an
effective address upon the necessity of
liquor dealers organizing and protecting
themselves against those who are trying
to ruin their business. The local branch
elected the following officials:
President—Stephen Drasher.
First vice president—Edward Murphy.
Second vice president—John Rugan.
Recording secretary—John Shigo.
Financial secretary —Frank Eberett.
Treasurer—S. DePierro.
Sorgeant-at-arms—Richard Welsh.
Member of state committee—l. A. Fry.
Nearly all the saloon men of town
were enrolled, and considerable interest
was taken in the matter.
The State Association was formed
March 7, 1895, and is similar to the
Liquor Dealers' Association of New
York, New Jersey, Ohio, Illinois, Con
necticut and other states, all of which
are connected with the National Liquor
Dealers' Association of the Unlted States,
which organization is uualtcrably op
posed.
First—To the attempt to increase the
internal revenue tox from $25 to SSO per
year.
Second—To an increase of the tax on ,
boer $1 per barrel.
Third—To an increase of the tax on
whisky from sl.loto $1.50 per gallon.
Tho objects of the Pennsylvania State
Association, briefly stated, are as follows:
First—lt is tho recognized fact that in
many parts of the state the system of
"blackmailing" has grown to such an
extent that it will eventually drive
out of the liquor buisness many honest
dealers. This wo proposo to prevent by
legislative enactments.
Second—Wo propose to repeal such
laws as are now on the statute books
of this state of an oppressive and fan- i
atical character.
Third —We propose to secure, if pos
sible, a reduction of the present high
license fee, so as to enable tho retail \
dealer to save at least fifty per cent of
the licenso which he is now forced to
pay, and which is acknowledge to
be extortionate by every fair-minded
man, whether engaged in the business
or not.
Fourth—The association will exercise
its influence in favor of every respect
able dealer now in the business and
guard against an over Increase of the
number of licenses, particularly to dive
keepers and other disreputable persons,
thereby guaranteeing a fair compensa
tion on the investment In tho business.
Fifth—Public opinion is against the
existence of "speak casies," as shown by
the recent expressions of the mayors of
many cities of the commonwealth. The
association will use every legitimate
means to assist tho authorities of all
cities and towns in the suppression of
these unlawful and obnoxious places.
Sixth—The association also pledges its
support to the brewers of tho various
cities and towns of this commonwealth
—who will aid the legitimate dealer, by j
having orders for malt and brewed '
liquors from clubs and other unlicensed i
places filled through licensed retail ;
dealers.
Seventh—The association does not be
long to any political party. It is an or
ganization of merchants banded together
solely for business interests, and for the
mutual protection of all engaged in the
legitimate liquor trade.

Immense Bed of Granite.
From tho Wilkesbarre Record.
The Lehigh Granite Company, which
is composed of a number of prominent
men from this section, has applied for a
charter for the purpose of quarrying
and manufacturing stone for building
purposes. Tho officers of the company
are: President, G. L. Halsey; vice
president, E. 11. Lavrall; secretary and
treasurer, Arthur Kunkle. Tho other
interested parties are Cornelius Cronin,
C. W. Boone, James D. Edwards, Charles
Hutchinson and Robert A. Hutchinson,
Kingston; S. N. Callendor, Scranton; Mr.
Childs, Wanamie; Edward Gunster and
Mine Inspector G. M. Williams. Wilkes
barre. Tho capital stock of the com
pany is $200,000.
The stone which this company is to
quarry and manufacture for building
purposes is granite, which most people
will be surprised to hear exists in such
large quantities in this region. Penn
sylvania has been made by nature the
repository of much mineral weatlh, but
it was never known until some of the
men engaged in this new enterprise dis
covered it that so valuable a building
stone as granite existed in this region.
The location of this new found mineral
wealth is two miles this side of White
Haven on land of John Danoker. It is
said to cover an area of 300 acres, and
all this has been purchased by tho com
pany from Mr. Danaker.
Tho promoters of this new enterprise
aro A. P. Kunkle and Cornelius Cronin,
of Kingston, and tho stone was brought
to the attention of those gentlemen last
spring, and after examining it they ex
amining it they came to the conclusion
that it was something better than or
dinary building stone, as it had all the
qualities of red granite. They kept the
matter quiet until an analysis of it
could bo secured and the real quality
of the stone could bo found out.
Should tho stone be as valuable as the
report of the chemists would lead one to
believe it will prove a big boom to White
Haven, and in fact the whole lower end
of tho county. Tho ground on which
the stone is located is crossed by the
Lehigh Valley and the Jersey Central
Railroads, so that the company has
splendid facilities for shipping their
article when it secures its charter and is
ready for operations.

A PRANK OF NATURE.
One of the Strange Sights of
Long Island.
Shelter Rock I. an Object of Great In
lercat to Resldeuts and Visitors-
Its Peculiar Position and
Formation.
Nature played some queer pranks
when she formed Long Island. Evi
dences of these are the peculiar to
pography of the island, ita still more
peculiar position upon the map, and
its striking outline, which, with its
topography, make it resemble a great
leviathan with a protruding backbone
There is in this neighborhood one more
striking freak—a gigantic rock in a
place which iif, for miles around, al
most totally devoid of stones of any
kind. This great rock is called Shelter
rock, and is on the road between this
place and Man has set.
There are some geologists who claim
that Long island was the result of a
great seismic disturbance which shat
tered it from the mainlaud —now Con
necticut and Rhode Island. Others
hold to the opinion that it was a float
ing mass of lava which settled here
in the plastic period of the earth.
Shelter rock could owe ita existence
to either of these processes. It could
have been burled here from some stony
portion of the country by a power so im
mense as to be almost inconceivable,
or it could have floated here upon a
sea of lava when the earth was "with
out form and void."
William Chester owns the land upon
which this interesting stone stands.
He keeps a stock farm, and his sheep
use the rock for shelter. It was from
this fact that it got its name. It is
about 30 feet high, 60 feet in width
and 75 or 80 feet in length. Upon the
top grow bushes of purple and white
lilacs, twice the height of a man# and
their roots extend down into crevices
in the rock, On its south side it shelves
out toward the top, leaving beneath
a sheltered territory where a flock of
sheep can And protection during a
storm.
There Is on the west surface of the
lock a large hollow niche where a man
could sleep with plenty of room. Great
cracks, showing the strains which have
been upon it at different ages, radiate
through it in all directions. Lichens
and moss cling to it. Besides the lilac
bushes upon its top several good-sized
maple trees grow. The roadway from
here to Manhnsset passes directly by
the east side of the rock.
There is but one rock like Shelter
rock in all this region. That is what is
called Kidd's rock, near Bands point,
where, legend says, the great pirate
captain buried some of his much
sought-for treasure. Kidd's rock, how
ever, is small. Shelter rock has been
for years the subject of much specula
tion and study. Classes of students
from St. Paul's school at Garden City
have made a critical study of it. Mill
eralogists and geologists from other
institutions have examined it. Among
them was Prof. Iteis, of the Columbia
college Bcbcolof mines, who examined it
In the interest of the Columbia depart
ment of geology and mineralogy.
Those who have dug down in the
enrth alongside the big stone have been
unable to reach its bottom. It must
extend downward for many feet; in
fact, It is thought that only a small part
of the real stone can be seen. In West
chester county there are many rocks
similar, but none so large. There was a
smaller one not far from here, but that
was broken up some years ago to make
stone walls. It was once suggested that
Shelter rock, which is of a good quality
of gray stone, be broken up and used
for macadam roads. An engineer was
sent here and made careful measure
ments of the rock. Guessing at its
depth, he estimated that it contained
enough stone to macadamize all the
roods in North Hempstead town and
many more besides. Chester was of
fered a handsome sum for the rock, but
lie refused it.
Not only are there no other big stones
in tho neighborhood of Shelter Rock,
except Kidd's rock, but there axe but
few stones of any kind. The immediate
neighborhood is entirely free from
them, but it seems as if all ill*
stone thereabout had been solidified in
to one great mass.
It has been suggested that the top of
the big stone be leveled off and the rock
used as the foundation for a meeting
hall, or a memorial building of some
kind. This would probably have been
done before were it not for the owner's
unwillingness to sell. The old meeting
house formerly used by the Quakers of
this village is but a short distance away.
No one has ever estimated the weight
of Shelter rock, but the number of tons
must be pretty well up in the thousands.
To blast it to pieces for road-raaking or
wall-building would require many
pounds of dynamite.—N. Y. Times.
