Charles Emory Smith, editor of the Philadelphia Press, is postmaster gen eral In the cabinet of President Mc- Kinley. As the Press Is the principal Republican anti-Quay newspaper In tho state, it looks very much as if tho presi • dent would not be inconsolable if Mr. Quay should bo defeated at the ap proaching election. It, therefore, seems just a little ludicrous to hear the Quay spellbinders pleading with the dear people to elect the Quay candidates in order to support the president und his administration. FOR REFORM IN LUZERNE. COUNTY CANDIDATES SHOULD WIN EASILY ON TUESDAY. Democratic Candiflatcn Are Worthy of the Support of Kvery Honeitt, Citizen. Ability, Integrity and Character Ought to lie Considered. Whllo the reform wave is sweeping over Pennsylvania and gathering re cruits by tho thousands for Mr. Junks and his colleagues, no voter should for a moment lose sight of tho fact that reform is also needed in our own county. The Republican machine has a sway in Luzorno which is loss repugnant than tho state machine, of which it is a part, only because its field of operation is less than tho corrupt model after which it is patterned. Since tho county was turned over a few years ago by the voters to the Re publican-', it hfas steadily headed down ward—financially, morally and other wise. Tho bonded debt has been enormously increased, the tax rate Is higher by far, and the county officers, instead of being the servants of the electors, are, in many instances, using their offices and their powers for self aggrandizement and uubliishingly ask that this course bo approved next Tues day. What is needed in Luzerne county is a thorough cleansing iu the department which controls the expenditures of the people's taxes. A man is needed in the controller's office who is hofiost—who does not waste thousands of dollars of the county funds in litigation over ques tions beyond his jurisdiction, whose ideas of honesty will apply to his own salary tho same as applied to a back township constable and who has some regard for morality and honor. Luzerne county has not such a man in that office, but tho voters have an opportunity to place an honest man there by voting for George Shiffer. He would not draw an order for over $2,000 salary on the first day of his entrance to the offico and charge it to alleged back pay due him while tho courts were de ciding upon the constitutionality of tho act croating tho office. Ho would not needlessly increase tho tax rate of tho county, nor would ho become a silent partner iu county contracts. George Shiffer owos no poor district money or dered paid by the court for expenses in taking care of victims, because his sense of honor and regard for morality is above those sins which cannot be named in decent newspapers. A county is judged by the characterof men it places in public office. There fore. Luzerne voters should look to their reputations next Tuesday and refuse to vote for men whose lives are hypocriti cal, immoral, dishonest and a disgrace to tho county. Let it not be said that Luzerne will honor the wolves that prowl about clothed in tho garb of sheep. If this lias been done once, more the shame 011 tho manhood of the county if it Is permitted agaiu. The office of sheriff is another impor tant department in a county such as this. Our heterogeneous population, our di versified industries and our enormous business interests call for a man who can administer the duties of tho position with tact, honor and care, who can be depended upon to quell a disturbance without needless loss of human llfo and tho plunging of the county into expense and disgraco. Fortunately, tho law does not permit a sherilT to succeed himself, or in all likelihood the present incumbent would have been foisted on tho Republican party by the machine. Nevertheless, whllo Martin Is not a candidate, it is fair to presume that the powers which openly rule the Republican party in Luzerne have planned that his succes sor shall become in their bands as pli able and subservient as was Martin. Corporation interests in this county, If continued 011 present lines, demand a biased man in that office, but they never succeeded in having their desire in this respect gratified until a Repub lican filled the chair. Democrat after Democrat successfully resisted the blandishments, the threats and the pleas of coal companies while acting as sheriff, and preserved and protected life and property without bloodshed in times of greater uprisings than in September. 1897. Their party teachings and training served thorn well during labor troubles, and they did jus tice botween man and man, regardless of which was the capitalist and which was the toiler. Yet tho first trial given a Republican found him wanting in all that which the position requires him to possess, and no further experiments ought to be made with Republican sheriffs. In Joseph J. McGinty the voters have a man whom thoy have twice trusted in public office. As recorder of the county ho performed his duties with a degree' of efficiency seldom equalled in similar positions. He was 110 figure-head while in the service of Luzerne county, but worked conscientiously for the salary paid him, Instead of adopting the pres ent style of filling a public position, viz.', employing a horde pf clerks to do the work, Before he entered public life, FREELAND, PA., THURSDAY, NOVEMBER 3, 1898. while he held office, and since he stepped down, no man has dared question Mr. McGiuty's record. In this lower end, where his early life was spent, ho is considered by nine out of every ten of the older inhabitants as a personal friend, a man whose friend ship is an honor to possess. In the upper end, he is known as one of Wilkes barre's most energetic citizens, a pro moter of every movement which will add to the credit or prosperity of the county. In fact, he Is one of the few men who have held offico in Luzerne county and still commands respect and esteem among the people. He comes before the voters well fitted to assume the duties of sherilT of the county. His experience in public affairs, his constant mingling with all classes of society, and witli character and ability to back him, he is the ideal man to make our peace guardian, to protect our prop erties, to intrust with complicated business affairs, and to do all these duties faithfully. In nominating Louis Gabrlell for re corder the Democrats gave to a large number of the voters of the county the representation to which they are en titled in county affairs. At his homo in Nanticoke he is known as a model citi zen, possessing the qualifications which lit him to aspire to any office in the county. Ho is b< i.ig solidly supported by the party, as are Dr. Singer for coro ner and Mr. Coliax for surveyor. Tlio whole ticket should win easily, for it contains none but the names of men in whom the voters can confidently place their trust. While not a county office, that of con gressman must also be well watched on Tuesday. The Democratic nominee, Stanley W. Davenport, has no barrel to open and with its contents debauch the electors. lie places his candidacy in tho hands of the people, and with them rests the responsibility of being repre sented in congress by a man wlur is capable and willing to serve tho district with fidelity and sincerity or to continue in office a man who asks for the honor again solely to retain "Hon." boforo his name. Function of the Mine InttpectorH. From the Philadelphia Record. Simple-minded people have been in doubt as to the real object of creating so many mine inspectors in Pennsylvania. If they will observo those initio inspec tors scurrying through tho anthracite and bituminous coal regions at this season of the year their doubts will bo resolved. The mine inspectors consti tute part of tho corrupt machine that rules over Pennsylvania. They receive high salarios not for inspecting the mines, but for inspecting tho miners about election time. This is of special importance In those parts of tho coal regions Into which large numbers of Hungarians and Italians have boon im ported. In the ignorance of these aliens concerning our language and laws it is necessary to see in the first place to their naturalization, and in tho next place that they shall vote for the ma chine on election day. The drilling of this partisan force In volves no small trouble; but it repays the machine for all its cost. No matter how great may bo the revolt among the Republicans of Pennsylvania against corrupt rule, this is a force upon which the machine can count with unerring certainty. Under the leadership of mine bosses, mine inspectors and company store managers it constitutes iu fact a division of the left wing of the regular army of tho machine. AMiamed to Go Home. From the Philndclphlu Times. Aged Patrick Clark left Ills home, In Tamaqua, narly last week with SIM) and catnc here to see thcJublleu celebration. Monday night he trlod to end his life by plunging Into the Delaware, river from the Market street whurf. It had cost hint 8150 to celebrate, and ho decided life wasn't worth living. The old man, who is well dressed, has been drinking heavily, and evldontly got into bad com pany. He can't remember who his fel low-eelebrators of the .Jubilee worn, but he thinks they got away with more of his money than ho did. At any rate; he was ashamed to go back to Tamaqna, and would have jumped Into the river but for several men standing on the wharf. SIOO Reward, SIOO.

On every page of the TRIBUNE today wiil be found interesting reading for voters who are yet in doubt as to how their ballots should he cast on Tuesday. The space given to this subject is greater than won hi be freely granted to any other subject within the province of this paper, but the question of pure vs. corrupt government in our fair state is the one great issue before the people today, and if we can aid in placing facts before the voters and helping them to voto right the un usual amount of political matter which appears in these columns will not have been published in vain. Wo ask a care ful perusal of the second, third and fourth pages of this issue by every reader who is privileged to vote on Tuesday. The Philadelphia Record is known as the most conservative election prophet among tho press of Philadelphia, and makes predictions only after mature deliberation and a careful weighing of all the factors of a contest. On Tuesday last., after considering all tho elements which will enter Into the gubernatorial vote, it said: "From this analysis of the political forces in Pennsylvania field and their tendencies our readers will draw their own conclusions. Our conclusion is that all the indications point to the election of George A. Jenks by an over whelming plurality, and the utter over throw of machine rule." J. P. McAndrews, of White Haven, candidate for representative in the Sixth legislative'district, passed through town on Tuesday on his way home from Conyngliam and Butler valleys, lie has been working night and day for some weeks past, and claims that his election is a certainty. The district is Democratic by a good majority, but It was carried by Representative Riley in tho Republican sweep of 1890. Mc- Andrews says he will redeem it, and the voters should give him the help he deserves. He will make an honest assemblyman. Local Republicans have been asked to stop as many votes as possible from going to Evans, the Prohibition legis lative candidate. The machine is not afraid of Evans' election, but it is afraid that the votes lost to him from Snyder will eloct Sheridan. However, it Is 110 easy task to get tho anti-Quayitos of tho district to voto for Snyder. More than half of thoso who change their minds about giving Evans a vote will go straight for Sheridan. Hugh Sheridan stands on a strong anti-Quay platform. No voter who con scientiously desires the overthrow of tho Boss can afford to cast his ballot for any other candidate. Sheridan Is sure to win if tho people of the Fourth dis trict consult their interests and the interests of the state and nation. The railroad labor organizations of the state have united in an indorsement of Jerry N. Weiler, one of the Demo cratic candidates for congressinan-at large. They recite his record in the state legislature as indicative of his course in congress in behalf of the workfngman. A new district, the Third, has been formed in Butler township. The poll ing place will be located at St. Johns. This will bring out a full vote in Butler, and consequently a larger Democratic majority will be returned John E. Lauer, of Summit 11111, who was running for congress in the Eighth district as an independent, has with drawn. This insures the election of F. 11. Barber, tho regular Democratic nominee. Owing to tho death of a nephew of Rev. Silas Swallow, the latter had to leave Wilkesbarre yosterday for Phila delphia, and could not fill his engage ment to address the voters here today. A Grand Mass Meeting. A mass meeting of the Democrats and citizens of tho North Side will be held at tho Urand opera house, Freeland, on Saturday oveni ng next, commencing at 8 o'clock. Every voter who can attend should be present on this occas •sion, and Ijear the issues of the cam paign set forth by the able orators who will be present. The speaker of the evening will be Colonel T. R. Martin, district attorney of Luzerne county, who is alwayß popu lar with a Freeland audience. John F. O'Nell, Esq., will also deliver an address. Dr. Julius Czupka. the noted Polish orator, will present, the questions of tho day to his countrymen. Hugh Sheridan, candidate for repre sentative; Joseph J. Mct.inty, candidate for sheriff, and Louis Ciabriell, candi date for recorder, will also address the gathering and givo the voters somo plain facts to consider. County Chairman Paul Dasch. whoso work in this campaign is telling, will give a synopsis of tiie political situation as has found it after a tour of tho county. Let no voter fall to attend this meet ing. It is the last chance In this cam paign to hear tho great Issues of the hour discussed.

Lentz's bill rocoivcd four rotes to two against, and a ques tion arising as to whether it was legally carried, Air. Everrltt, who presided, reserved his decision until the matter could be looked up. President Trevas kis called Director Everrltt to the chair to render his decision. Director'l'revas kis read the school laws, which gavu an opinion based on a board of six, and Director Sweeney read an interpretation by Deputy State Superintendent Ste wart, which was against the bill. The chair, rendered the decision that the motion to pay the bill had passed. Di rector Sweeney protested and notified the treasurer that if lie paid tbe bill he would bo surcharged with the amount. Ueorge Vanauker was elected to teach night school ut B'-'u per month. The secretary was instructed to loan original copy of duplicate to the tax collector. J. M. Carr, Esq., representing the Freeland Silk Mill Company, asked the board to exuncrate them from tliu pay ment of school taxes. No action was ta ken. ltills of 11. C.
