POLITICAL POINTERS.
The little poop which tho people are
getting at tho real meaning of Quayism,
through the arrest of Senator Quay, his
son Richard and Charles H. McKoo, has
given them an appetito for more in
formation on the subject, and many Re
publicans in tho Fourth legislative dis
trict will vote for the Democratic can
didate for assembly, in tho hope that a
thorough and complete exposure of!
Quayism in all its forms may be made. |
The Democratic Press Association
of Pennsylvania will meet at Philadel
phia on Friday next. Tho Democratic
press of tho state is united as it never j
was before and is doing effective work
fur local and stato reforms. The com
ing meeting will plan tho work to bo
done during the remainder of this cam
paign.
Jack McCarthy, who was in llazleton
last week and predicted a sensation in
Luzerne county politics, spent yesterday

bers of tho Business Men's League, with

wind.— Plain Speaker.
Schuylkill Prohibitionists failed to file
their nomination papers correctly and
the names of their candidates cannot

COMMENTS AND CLIPPINGS ON THE
COUNTY CAMPAIGN.
WliHt Kind of a Ainu the Democratic
Candidate for Sheriff* Una Keen and In.
Carbon Opinions of Dan McCarthy.
Controller Lloyd's Troubles, Ktc.
There Is no more deserving man before
the voters of Luzerne county In the
present canvass than Joseph J. McGinty.
lie has boon tried and not found want
ing. He Is no uncertain quantity. The
voters and taxpayers know hi in and
know just what ho can do. How do
they know? From what he has already
done. There is no bettor way of judging
what a man will do than by what he has
done under similar conditions. When
he was recorder of the county he attend
ed strictly to the business of his oflioe
personally. He did not, like many
another public office holder of this
county hire clerks to do the work he
should do and bring this additional bur
den on the taxpayers.
He saved what he could by doing his
duty, the duty for which he was elected
and for which he was paid. He is a
faithful worker and his years of exper
ience have made him efficient. AsherilT
ought to have .a measure of experience
for Lho trying duties that befall to his
lot. Joseph McGinty brings these quali
fications to bear. The average man
who desires to see the right man In the
right place will vote for McGinty.
The experience of Luzerne county has
been such that voters ought to exerciso
the greatest care and caution in choosing
a man who is likely to be called on in
trying times to restore order and insure
peace and quiet. No man who has ever
stood before the voters is better equipped
in tliis than tho present Democratic
candidate.— Wilkeabarre NewsdeaLr.
Waltor Melford, a writer in the Weath
erly Herald , says: "Dan McCarthy, of
Freeland, lias flopped with sack and
pack over the fence in the Republican
camp. As long as good old Eckley Coxe
lived, Dan was a Democrat; now he is
nothing. I remember well the last poor
director convention wo hold at Hazlc
ton, how Dan told us in a loud and long
speech, to some five or six hundred
people, what a good Democrat ho was
and ho would always abido by its prin
ciples, and how lie did arraign, yea,
mercilessly flail the Republicans in the
district for the extravagant condition of
affairs then existing. Now ho is a Re
publican. Sometimes I wonder if the
Republicans arc not ashamed to stump
tlio county with him. He spoke at
Mauch Chunk, and as a consequence
the meeting was dry and dull. He was
jollied and his words bad no weight by
reason of his actions. Every Democrat
and thorough Republican is sorely dis
gusted witli tho likes of Dan."
A hearing was had on Thursday in
the case of Dr. J. J. Smythe, who claims
lie was counted out at tho Democratic
county convention, where lie was a
candidate for coroner. Attorney Hinos,
for Smythe, contended that seventy-five
delegates had voted for Dr. Smythe and
tho tellers had credited him with forty,
while they gave Dr. Singer sixty. At
torney Strauss, for Dr. J. A. Singer, the
party nomineoe, asserted that the court
had no jurisdiction in tho matter and
also that Dr. Smythe had not complied
with all the requirements of the law in
preparation of his papers. Attorney
Mcllugh, representing the Democratic
party, argued that tho court had noth
ing to do with tho case. Judge Wood
ward instructed tho attorneys to prepare
briufs in the case and lie would take the
papers, then give his decision.
Controller Joseph D. Lloyd, whoso
first official act was to draw 82,400 from
the county treasury for which money he
never performed a moment's work, lias
been sued for slander by M. J. Mulvoy,
of Miners Mills, and $5,000 damages aro
asked. In a speech at North Fond last
month Lloyd accused Mulvey of trying
to fleece the county out of 8100 by pre
senting exhorbitant bills. This Mulvey
denies, and in addition to bringing suit
for the slander is preparing copies of
records in Luzerne and Lackawanna
courts which will show Lloyd's personal
character in an unenviable light.
There is a hot fight on for tho common
pleas judgeship, made vacant by tho
death of Judge Dennett. Governor
Hastings is expected to make the ap
pointment at an early day. George S.
Ferris, who has been urged by his many
friends to allow them to press his claims as
a candidate, has decided not to enter tho
contest for appointment. This narrows
the race to Frank Whoa ton and Gains
L. Halsey, cacti of whom has a iiost of
friends.
Tho Republicans of Carbon county
had a Hag raising in Mauch Chunk last
Saturday evening. Among the speakers
was Daniel McCarthy, of Freeland, who
took one hour and twenty minutes to
tell why he left the Democratic party.
It could be told in twenty seconds. He
left because, like tho Hessian of the rev
olution, ho Is out for tho coin.—Lam

to take in exchange for Ward's Rational
Method of Reading. A disbussion
arose as to the course teachers were to
take in teaching the method. Directors
Lessor and Knyrim thought the method
a poor one since it would require all
pupils now in second reader to start in
the primer of the rational system. The
matter was referred to tho committee
on course of studios.
Director Knyrim raado application for
two recitation seats and two desks for
Eckley schools and Director Evans

Hon. Morgan D. Williams lias received
from tho insurance department of the
stato tho warrants for the money due

of Luzerne county, aggregating $1,674.55
for twenty-nine places. This money is
one-half of tho net amount received

ness done In tho state, according to the

and benefit of tho members of tho fire

"The Maine Avenged."
The New York Dramatic News of Sep
tember 31, 1898, speaks in the highest
terms of this magnificent production.
This is what it says: "Hamilton Harris,
a well known and experienced actor,
has written a play around the Cuban
war, wiiich ho calls 'The Maine Aveng
ed.' It is a pure military story, not as
sensational as many believe, with char
actors found in 'Secret Service.' It is a
play that will certainly appeal to the
public this time of the year, and as pre
sented by Mr. Harris last night It fairly
made a good Impression and gave evi
dence of skill. The author played the
leading part and his success is two-fold,
for he acted with vigor and proved that
some authors can play their own plays.
Mr. Harris was well supported. There
aro a number of stirring incidents in
the play which pleasod tho audienco,
while the scenery and mechanical'ef
fects woro very beautiful. 'The Maine
Avenged' is likely to draw well. It gave
entire satisfaction to tho large audience
at the Star theat.ro last night."
At the Grand tomorrow evening.
Pure, Clean and Wholesome.
Dartel's beer, porter and ale are three
beverages which tho people are rapidly
learning to rely upon. For appetite,
health and strength, drink any or all of
thorn. Thoy aro manufactured more

Used judiciously, Dartel's beer, porter
or ale will be found an oxcellont touic.

Cut Off the Little I.eitkM.
The Hartford (Conn.) Post gives the
following sensible advice to advertisers:
"Save money on your advertising if
you can, of course, but save it in tho
right way. Cut off all tho little leaks
—the programs, the bills of fare, the
directories, the wall charts, the pages
in 'souvenirs.' Cut them all of? and
your trade won't over feel the difTeronce.
Cut ofT tho inconsequential papers if
you have to, but always keep your ad.
in tho best papers, big onough to do you
justice. It is better to convince a few
people than to talk to many."
There Is much sound advice to evory
advertiser in the abovo.
