FREELAND, SEPTEMBER 30, 1807. Support the Whole Ticket. From the Wilkesbarre Leader. There is every reason why every Demo crat in Pennsylvania should support the Democratic state and county ticket this fall. In the first place the candidates are men who were not foisted upon the people. Such a condition of affairs is. happily, a thing of the past. The Demo cratic party knows no boss at this time in Pennsylvania. These men are worthy of the support of every good citizen who believes in wresting from a disgraced and shameless party the power in state affairs it, has betrayed. The history of Pennsylvania tells us of no more reckless and plundering body than the legislature of 1807. It was largely Republican. It was chosen for specific purposes—that of electing a United States senator and moulding into shape laws for the corporations. That the members fully justified the expecta tion of Quay and the corporations he favors no one can doubt. It is a record that stands out alone in the history of Pennsylvania legislatures. The people know it: the Republican party laughs about it and is not ashamed: the Prohibitionists point to it as the crime of the nineteenth century. But what do the people who are to go to the polls next November think about it? The office of state treasurer and audi tor general are important offices and should be filled by worthy men. Our county ticket is an admirable one; every man upon it is eminently fitted for the office to which he aspires: it represents as far as possible location and so-called nationality; every man upon it, is fresh from the people, i> not an office holder bent upon perpetuating his pres ent lease of power, but actually stands as a representative of the people who are disgusted with the idea of maintaining an office-holder aristocracy. The ticket commends Itself not only to the Demo crats, but to every independent citizen and taxpayer who desires a more econ omical administration of affairs in this country. tlohrt 1.. Sulli van'ti View of It. From the New York Journal. •loliii L. Sullivan, now a powerful factor in the politics of Boston, may not possess that social polish necessary to commend him to the voters of Beacon : Hill and Commonwealth avenue, but he can think with his own head. That is an advantage which not many men en joy, in oroutof the prize ring, on Beacon Hill or off it. Mr. Sullivan lias been using his head to consider the state of the union, and in today's .Journal, through Mr. Alfred Henry Lewis, he communi cates some of tin results of his medita tion. It will be seen that Mr. Sullivan dis proves of the shooting of the miners at Lattimer by Sheriff Martin and his men. and objects to the amount of bail on which that rapid-firing official and his deputies have been held to answer the charge of murder. Like all men who i have risen to eminence in his profession, Mr. Sullivan has a profound respect for the, law. yet he holds to the sound American doctrine that the law should never play favorites. Speaking of the Pennsylvania mas sacre, he puts this doctrine in his own striking way: "Turn it around. Do you suppose the sheriff would have shot into a lot of mine, owners if they'd been walkln' down the road? Not on your necktie. An' if the sucker did, would Sie get off on SO,OOO bail? It would be a billion." Two Million*! a Year. When people buy, try and buy atfuin. it means they're satisfied.

Jimmy could not get the blade of liis new knife open. He had tried until the nails of both his thumbs were broken, and then he had worked with a screw driver and a spike, but he couldn't start the stiff spring. "Guess you never heard about open ing a knife with your handkerchief," nnid Uncle Nat. good-naturedly. "With al handkerchief?" "Yes, with a handkerchief. When I was a boy that is the way we always HOW THE BLADE WAS OPENED, j did, but the boys of to-day seem to have J forgotten the trick." Uncle Nat put on his spectacles, drew out his handkerchief and; wound it about Jimmy's knife, blade and all. He did it slowly, so that it would be tight. Jimmy looked,on wonderingly. When the winding was finished Uncle Nat I held the free corner of the hand leer- [ chief firmly between his thumb and linger and gave the knife a sharp little twitch and throw. Of course the hand kerchief unrolled rapidly, and when the knife flew out the blade was open. "There." said Uncle Nat. "easy enough, isn't it?" And Jimmy was able to do the same thing at the first trial, and after that lie wasn't troubled with a blade that stuck.— Chicago Record. PREMIUM ON SILENCE. Till* Story Tell * How Millie Wit;;*!"* Won n (let. Willie Wiggins and his chum. Tommy Tompkins, were sitting together on the j curbing down the street the other day, j when Mrs. Wiggins came to the front j door and glanced up and down the [ stieet as if looking for some one, says the Ohio State Journal. Presently she spied the object of her search and called out: "Willie, 1 want yon." She then reentered the house and busied herself about her household du j ties. A minute later Mrs. Tompkins put her head out of a window half a block away and yelled at the top of her voice: "Tom-my! You come home this verj I minute!" ! Both boys remained m-ct ion less. I Neither spoke a word. Five minutes passed away, when both | women again made their appearance a*. ! the same moment: "Oh, Willie," called Mrs. Wiggins. No answer. "Tom-my!" shouted Mrs. Tompkins. "Willie!" again called Mrs. Wiggins. "I wish you would hurry borne. 1 want | you." "Tommy Tompkins." shouted his I l mother, in an angry tone, "if you are ! i not here in mighty short order I'll see if j I can't help you along." Neither the pleading voice of Mrs. ! ; Wiggins nor the angry tone of Mrs. Tompkins seemed to have any effect on i the two boys and they both remained silent and motionless as their respect ive i mothers again disappeared. About two minutes later Willie put in his nppear ; a nee. "Did you want me, mainina?" he | asked. "Did 1 want you?" exclaimed his mother. "Of course I wanted you. Why I didn't you come when I first called | you?" "'Cause Tommy Tompkins bet men j i cent's worth of candy lie could keep from spcakin' longer'n I could," replied Willie, "lie didn't do it, though," In continued. as lie drew himself up with the air of a victor. His ma came after him with a switch." Dromeilnrle* S.lke to Smoke. Dogs have been taught to smoke, but ; they never seem to like, it, but dromt j daries smoke unci are particularly fond of the weed. We have this on the testi I inony of many celebrated travelers in 1 Egypt. Dromedary drivers rely more on tobacco smoke for their control over j these animals than anything else. When traveling on long journeys the dromedaries are in many cases required to travel all day and night, and tlu-y are kept up lo their task by smoking cigars. 1 The driver carries a triangular piece of wood, which is pierced at one point like a cigar holder. This is inserted in the i animal's mouth, "lie cigar being lit and 1 pressed into the hole in the same fnsh | ion followed by man.
