FREELAND, PA., JUNE 5, 1899.
The Taxing of Poles.
Tho city controller's statement of
tho roceipts and expenditures of Hazle
ton for tho past year lias boon publish
ed. In the column of receipts appears
an item which reads: "Pole tax,
81,170." This is certainly a neat sum
to derive from that source, yet it doos
not appear to bear heavily upon those
who pay It, or else an occassional pro
test against its collection would be
registered.
Now if Hazleton can be reimbursed to
the extent of over eleven hundrod dol
lars per year for having the appearance 1
of the town despoiled, why cannot Free- '
land derive seine revenue from those '
who obstruct our streets with unsightly
poles?
In theory a pole tax or any similar
tax is not to our liking. A tax upon
tho value of the franchises of tho cor
porations which use our streets for pri
vate gain would be more equitable to
the community, but as it is not possible
under present laws to tax their fran
chises the next best tax to levy is one
on their poles and similar property.
The borough council a few years ago
arrived at this conclusion and a lengthy
ordinance relating to taxes upon poles,
wires and other street obstructions was
passed and made a borough law.
For somo unknown reason this law
has lain dormant, and it is about time
that it is awakened from its slumbers
and sent forth to bring in tho much
needed revenue which its framcrs
calculated it would draw to tho local
treasury.
Decisions upholding tho legality of
this form of taxing have been affirmed
by tho highest courts of the state,
therefore no doubt of its constitution
ality need arise.
Tho borough authorities should allow
this law to sleep no longer. The town
is under no obligations to any corpora
tion which uses and disfigures the
streets. They come hero and take
what they can from the town and its
people, and thero is no reason whatever
for exonerating them from legitimate
assessments and taxing our citizens to
the full limit of the law.
Other towns, as the Hazleton state
ment clearly provos, have found it to
their Interest to enforce these laws.
The tax nood not be exorbitant, nor
laid with discrimination. Let it bo
placed at a fair figure, then insist upon
its payment.
If the streets are worth using, that
privilege is worth paying for. If not,
let the corporations take their poles and
go-
In Philadelphia Dewey Day, the Ist
ult., was observed by a celebration in
which the city officially took part. The
expenses of the city in assisting to
honor the day were 83,180. Of this sum
items aggregating 82,230.40 were in
curred by sub-committees of councils
in luncheons, dinners, cigars and re
freshments. Another item of §173 was
for badges for councilinen. Evidontly
membership in Philadelphia councils,
especially on its celebration committees,
is heaven to tho epicureans of the city.
Respect the Deserving Poor.
It is reported that the poor directors
ore considering the plan of publishing
the names and amounts of all persons
who receive outdoor reliof in tho
district.
This is a question which is worthy of
deep consideration and a doclsion should
not be arrived at hastily.
It Is possible that the generosity of
the district may have been and perhaps
is still being imposed upon by persons
who really need no help, but if such has
been and is yot going on, there are
surely many other ways of ascertaining
thnso facts.
Tho publishing and punishing of
frauds is the duty of the directors, hut
to publish all tho names, the deserving
poor along with the imposters, if there
are any of the latter, Is not just.
Jl is no criino to be poor, nor to he In
a position where it is necessary to ac
cept public relief, but where is the
widow, the orphan, or the aged and in
firm, who would not hang his or her
head every time the name is made
public?
There is a certain justified pride even
among the most lowly, and that pride
ought to be respected by the authorities.
The spirit of charity which the found
ers of the public relief system were
actuated by did not seek to further cast
down our unfortunate neighbors by any
such means as those now under con
sideration by the directors.
Consider the question a while longer,
Messrs. Directors. We believe you
have the ability to devise a better solu
tion.
Tho twenty-socond anniversary of the
publication of tho Philadelphia Record
as a one-cent newspaper was celebrated
on Thursday. The Record easily leads
tho penny papers of the country, and
that its worth is appreciated is proven
by the largo circulation—the largest of
any paper published iu tho state—that
it enjoys.
Give Coyle a Square Deal.
Ex-Senator John J. Coylo's audacity
in demanding to be appointed bank
examiner of tho state, in face of the
fact that he is charged with gravo
crimes by the bribery investigation
committee of tho legislature, has
occasioned considerable discussion.
Mr. Coyle has been a staunch friend
and admirer of Matt Quay for some
time past, and in demanding an oilice,
even while charged with felony, ho is
morely following the precedent estab
lished by his tutor.
Quay was a candidate for United
States senator at tho time he was under
indictment for conspiracy to rob the
state, arid Coyle would not he a true
Quayite if he did not believe that to
the accused belongs a vindication In
the shape of a fat oilice.
That Is tho Quay doctrlno, and the
cx-stato senatorshould not bo singled out
as a target for the press any more than
the other Quayites who try to put into
practice the same dogma.
Bryan on "Corporations,
From Philadelphia City and State.
In his speech on "Corporations" at
tho recent St. Louis conference, Wil
liam Jennings Bryan stated very con
cisely and clearly the ground on which
tho trust organizations havo secured
and maintain their existence In this
country In these modern times, and how,
In his viow, tho great evils in this con
nection, come everywhere to bo recog
nized, can be overthrown. Thorn
seems to be a growing number of people
on ail sides of us in the laud who In
cline to bolicve that the trust raally
can not be controlled. They are sure
that it cannot be controlled in the sense
of being put absolutely out of existence;
that it Is simply impossible, In short, to
go back to old-time competition. They
may be nearer right in tills than many
are just yet ready to acknowledge.
But one thing seems certain to every
body—namely, that something will have
to be done, and that whatever the ulti
mate issue, this or that, the govern
ment as tho first thing will have to con
trol the trusts. If the government—l.
e., the people—can not control tho
trusts, then the trusts must Inevitably
control the government and everybody
included in it and all interests subsist
ing under it. Mr. Bryan, speaking in a
general way, on this subject, says;
The government would be guilty of
gross neglect it It permitted an individ
ual to secure an monopoly even with
out legislative asssistanco, but It is still
more culpablo if, by legislative act, it
furnishes the means by which a monop
oly is secured. The corporation is the
means now employed by those who seek
to secure a monopoly. Since the cor
poration is a fictitious person, created
by law, the power that creates can
regulate, restrain, or annihilate. To
say that the government is impotent to
prevent tho organization of trusts Is to
say that it has called Into existence a
fictitious person, and that the fictitious
person created has boceme greater than
tho creator.
What has proved In the past to be,
and is still, a serious wcaknoss in our
system of government—allowing evils
of various sorts, and often ominous, tn
got, and, rather tenaciously at times, to
hold a footing among us—is sharply
pointed out as viciously oporative in
this Instance. Mr. Bryan further says:
"One of the difficulties which has been
encountered in opposing trusts is that
the trust hides behind the federal con
stitution when attacked by state legis
lation, and shields itself behind its statn
charter when attacked in tho federal
courts. No remedy will bo complete
that is not coextensive with tho federal
government. If tho extinguishment of
the trusts is loft to state legislation, the
public at large will he victimized so long
as a single state will furnish a robber's
roost whore the spoils colloctod in other
states can bo divided.

OUR CAPITAL LETTER.
SOMETHING SUSPICIOUS IN THE
NEWS FROM THE PHILIPPINES.
Letting Out Bud New. From Manila,
But What In the Purpone- Secretary
Alger Again Prove. Hla Unfltneaa.
Dewaj Home Fund Increaaea Slowlj-
Washington, D. C., June S.
There Is something decidedly suspi
cious In the news from tho Philippines.
Not a line of press news can be cahlod
from Manila until it has been approved
by the United States military censor,
and It is not likely that he would
approve anything the administration
did not wish public. Hence, the publi
cation of the statement that it would
be Impossible for General Otis to con
quer oven the ontlro island of Luzon,
not to mention the remainder of the
group, so that it would stay conquered,
without a large increase In his army,
was allowed to pass the censor for a
purpose. Not being In the confidence
of tho administration, —few persons,
even among the most prominent Republi
cans, are—it cannot bo positively stated
what that purpose Is, but the inference
is that It Is intended to pavo tho way
(or one or two things; a call for volun
teers to reinforce Otis, or to make tho
people of this country satisfied with soiuo
dicker that is about to bo made with the
Filipinos, and which they could natur
ally bo inclined to be dissatisfied with.
The preponderance of opinion in Wash
ington is that it moans more volunteers.
Orders have been sent to the civilian
members of tho Philippine commission
that they must do nothing to Interfere
with the military plans of General Otis,
which is confirmation of tho reported
wrangles in tho commission.
XX X '
Representative Dalzcll, of Pennsyl
vania, who stands about as much show
as Payne, tho New York antl-Platt can
didate, dropped into Washington a day
or two ago and announced that he was
a candidate for speaker. Ho could not
control throe votes in tho Pennsylvania
delegation, counting his own, to save
his nock. Ringham is tho dummy can
didate of the Pennsylvania delegation,
and will remain such until Quay decides
who shall got these votes.
t t t
The administration was very par
ticular to have the widest circulation
given to the report of the beef court of
inquiry, but It has now discovered that
all of the 8200,000 set aside to pay for
the inquiry has been used up, and has
ordered work stopped on the printing of
the testimony, upon which that report
was supposed to be based, after it had
all been put In type. It has all along
been contended by many that tho ad
ministration never intended to make
the testimony public, and this action
mak.s It look as though that contention
was correct.
X t t
No surprise was caused in Washing
ton by Senator Piatt's flat-footed declar
ing thut McKiuiey and Ilobart would be
, renominated. Se far as McKlnley is
( concerned, Piatt has been mortgaged
since early In tho prosont adrulnistra
' tlon; his endorsement of Ilobart means
' that If ho ever had any Idea of helping
to get Roosevelt second place on the
' ticket, It has been abandoned, but
whether because he wasn't pleased with
Roosevelt or whether tho latter wasn't
pleased with the Idea of socond place, is
a matter of conjecture, but the former
Is more likely to be true. The declara
tion of Senator Penrose, who is Ross
Quay's man and mouth-piece, in favor
of McKinloy's rcnomiiiatlon is nothing
more than a bid for administration help
for Quay in his contest to get his seat in
tho senate. This was doubtless pleas
ing to Mr. McKlnley, whether ho means
to help Quay or pot, as he found Quay
i decidodly "uppish" towards tho admin
istration while ho was In tho senate.
t X t
Secretary Alger has been putting Ills
foot In It again, Several days ago, he
caused an order to be Issued by the war
department, Instructing the military
authorities In Cuba to give clearances
to Cuban vessels under tho Cuban flag,
and at the same time stating that the
vessels flying the Cuban flag would not
bo undor American protection. As
there Is no Cuban government, there
cati bo no rocognlxed Cuban flag; hence
the order strikes tho average man as
ludicrous. Somebody called Mr. Mc-
Klnley's attontion to tho ordor and ho
directed that It be roferred to tho attor
ney general for an opinion. This
opinion, It Is expected, will knock the
order out. It might answer for Cuban
vessels to go from ono Cuban port to
another, under such a clearance, but In
any port outsldo of Cuba, tho masters of
such vossols would bo at anybody's
mercy; they would have no consul to
appoal to In caso of unjust treatment of
any sort, and no standing in any court
of admiralty. Alger's specialty appears
to be doing the wrong thing.

t WHAT HE YEARNED FOR.
Quit* Sure That Humor Hot Degonorotod
Since the Old Di|i.
"I tell you what It Is," snltl the man
with tired, drooping eyes and a scrub
by fringe of fur around his overcoat,
"humor ain't what It used to be.
Back lu the days when I used to write
the real stuff for the Whangsvllle
Monitor—never heard of toe Monitor!
Why it was the sensation of the day.
1 couldn't go to a minstrel show or
pick up a book without seeing some of
the good things 1 hud hud In the Moni
tor; changed, of course, but 1 could
recognize them."
"Do you think humor has degener
ated since then?" Inquired Ills nuditor,
whose interest seemed rather slight.
"I should say so. I don't see any of
the good, old-fashioned, out-and-out
fun that used to delight me. Where
1b that Joke about the motuer-ln-law?
It has drifted from the scene. Like
the giants of oratory ami statesman
ship and acting, It Is no more. T.
wny they used to get up tilings to hurt
the feelings of mothers-in-law and
show 'em they hud no right to say a
word if a man chose to stay out all
night and come home Intoxicated and
fumble around the keyhole did my
heart good. That always used to
make me laugu; the way they would
depict a man in a state of total In
ebriety fumbling at the keyhole, with
his mother-in-law and wife Inside,
wondering whether It would be sufe
to let him in or not."
"We don't see as much of that sort
of humor us we used to, assented his
friend.
"No. They seem to hnve lost the
knack. The spirit of the age is Icono
clastic. The tendency is to slight the
olu classics; even to sneer at them,
and think that things pretty near as
good are being produced. There was
the young man who went trembling
Into tlie old man's study to ask 'him
for his daughter's hand. What bus
become of him? The way the old
party would take him by the ear, lead
him out to the front door anil kick
him clenr out to the curbstone—he al
ways lit on the curbstone—used to
tickle me nearly to death. I hnve
lnuglied for hours as I thought of him
lying there with his best clothes
spoiled, wnitlng for somebody to tome
along and send for the ambulance."
"He Is not very much In evidence,
that's a fact," was the reply.
"Then there was the little boy who
nte things that didn't agree with him
—green apples, usually—und went to
Jolu the angels. That used to keep
me In roars. The idea of that little
boy—well, there's no use trying to
describe it. It's too funny to talk
about. And the servant girl who
blew herself Into atoms trying to light
the Are with kerosene, and a lot more
of them, have about disappeared.
Once lu awhile they try to flicker to
the front, but they ain't what they
were when I was writing the real
stuff for the Whangsville Monitor.
Those were the palmy -ays of humor,
and I have my doubts if we'll ever
see anything like 'em again."
And he heaved a long, long sigh.
A Vindication.
The shndes of uiglit were deepening
and the sky was overcast. The girl
stood at the casement, watching the
raindrops which dotted the white
pavement, heralds of the storm which
soon was to follow. She knew that
very soon a youth would pass on the
opposite side of the street—a youth,
who would wove his hand and who
would smile to see tlie flutter of het
handkerchief lu reply.
Herbert quit work at half-past Ave.
How pitilessly the rain beat down!
Soon she saw a figure in the distance.
The overcoat was buttoned up to its
owner's chin and the hat was pulled
down over his ears, but she recognized
the walk. .She held her handkerchief
in readiness to be fluttered, but he did
not pause us usual. With n low cry of
joy she saw that be was crossing the
street. She ran to lilng open the door,
and as he ascended tlie stepsexcluiined
"I knew you coeld live down these
calumnies. Come!"
"Where to?"
"Into the library. I want my fatliei
to meet you face to face."
"Hut I'm all wet."
"Yes hurry before you dry off, or he
may not b'elicve us. It wasn't twenty
minutes ago, Herbert, that he was say
ing you hadn't sense enough to come
iu out of the rain, and I want him to
see how cruelly he has wronged you!"
