DRUGGISTS IN TROUBLE.
Hertel h BROS. Violating She Ii.
QuOr Law.

Hertel & Bros, druggists, at the cor
ner of Linden street and Maryland ave
nue., were, on complaint of Bailiff Brad
given a hearing before Magistrate Ber
toilette, yesterday afternoon, on tht
charge of violating the annexed section
ofthe liquor law, which reads as follows
"The price ofa license to a retailer OF
| goods, wares and merchandise, or to a
druggist, shall be $25. But any drug.
gisJ, whose sales of liquor for medicinal
purposes do not exceed SIS, shall not be
required to take out license unless the
rental value Of his place of business OK
ceed $500, when it shall be increased at
the rate of ten per centllm ON such rem
tai value"
Bailitf Brady testified that he had
been informed that the accused were
selling liquor in violation of the law,
and that lie, having visited their store
and seeing bottles filled with whisky,
standing On the counter, had purchased
one, for which he epaid twenty i've cents.
He stated that considerable drunken
ness existed in the neighborhood, and
the liquor causing it was procured at
Herte's store, where it could be pur-
chased even by children.
The defendant pleaded ignorance of
the liquor law. lie stated that he was
under the impression that he could sell
twenty five gallons of whiskey yearly,
and as his authority, quoted Clerk Of
the Peace Cochran.
The magistrate, however, held him In
the sum Of $500 for his appearance at
court
Mr.. Hertel called at tho REPUBLICAN
Office this morning aud stated that he
was selling liquor under an entire mis-
of the law as he thought
he was permitted to sell as high as $75
worth to any party he pleased, He in
dignantly denies that there is any
drunkenness in the neighborhood on ac-
count of the liquor he sold, and on no
occasion did he ever sell to children.
The only bottle, he says, that he ever
SOLE, except for medical purposes was
the one he scld to Bailiff Brady him
self.

A Committee Of Citize..s Want Some
Explanation from the Levy
Court.

4 ACOmmlttoe Of Cltize. - Want Some
Explanations from the Levy
Court.
The following communication wal
sent some time ago TO this Office for pub
lication but by some means was mislaid
However 1t Is to the point and equally
opportune now:
MEssRs EDITORS of the REpUBLr. +.
CAN Through your columns, we, the
Undersigned tax payers, respectfully
write to the committee of the Levy
Court who had the awarding of the Au-
gustine Bridge contract, to explain
through the REPUBLICAN their reasons
for giving Robert A. Morrison the con-
tract when his proposal was 1881 over
one experienced bridge builder and
$5l6 higher than another equally as
competent, when the said Robert A,
Morrison has no knowledge whatever of
bridge building, but will have an op-
portunity to get the work done by men
who DO understand the business, for
S93l less, thereby putting that amount of
the hard earnings Of the tax payers into
his pocket.
We believe it is our duty and it is
our perfect right to know why the pub
lie money which is the hard earnings of
the taxpayers, and to which fund we
contribute our proportion, should be
wasted in this manner or the public
money be given to one man without an
equivalent. When the citizens elect
the members of the Levy Court, it is
with the belief that they are willing to
pledge their bonor.to do justice and
take cake of the public property en-
trusted to their care. The Levy Court
men are public servants who are paid
literally for their labor and are liable
and should be censured for any misde-
meanor or unjust act. SO far as the
actions of the Levy Court have as yet
come before the public repecting the
awarding of the contract referred to, |
IT appears very gross injnstice has
been done to the public as well as to
those experienced tradeslnen of our
State who made proposals to build said
bridge and were in justice entitled to
the contract.
Believing as we still do that cur Levy
Court is composed of honorable men
we most respectfully request that they
will give the public q satisfactory ac-
count of their actions, and thereby ac-
quit themselves ofthe censure they are
under by their fellow citizens so far as
their actions have been laid before the
public. Trusting that we shall receive
the required explanations from the
Levy Court we respectfully sign our
names, William Homcwood, William
Samuel Lindsey, John r.
Scott, &. w. Groves, j. f. Peters, Jr.,
James Wright, ID. j. Murphy, Joseph
Rankin and John A. Reynolds, Jr.

folk Nirginian,i is the case of venerable
lady, a relative of Capt. J.W. Mclean.
She was smitten at tie supper table
with what seemed a partial paralysis,
which resisted the usual remedies pro-
tessionally prescribed. St. Jacobs Oil
was applied, insuring immediate relief,
and its continued use for three days
enabled her to 60 about the house az
well as ever. She considers that she
owes her life to its great curative
powers.

Much excitement has been caused in
Wilkeslarre by the allegation that the

kesbarre, and II. Bungardner, of White
Haven, were arrested yesterday and

COnkling's Quiet Day.

A correspondent from ALBANY to the
New York Tribune Of yesterday SAYS:
There was little to disturb the politi-
cal quiet Of ex-senator Conklipp's exis-
tence yesterday. The ballot for Sep.-
tor at Albany resulted as on the dav
previous, and Mr.. Conkling and his
friends affected to derive a good deal Of
comfort from this fact; but privately
some of these friends admitted that
with each succeeding day the prospect
of their preventing the election of Mr..
Lapham grew steadily worse.
81 am afraid it is only a question of
time and a very short time at that"
said a prominent Stalwart yesterday
"Mr. Conkling's friends have stood BY
him nobly, but some of them are res
tive, and cannot be depended on to vote
for him much longer"
Tuesday Mr.. Conkling and Vice Pres
ident Arthur entreated their friends in
the Legislature to hold out for forty
eight hours longer, declaring that with
in that time something would occur
which would materially change the as
pect of the situation. This inter ra
has now elapsed, and nothing has been
done TO better Mr. Conkling's chances
of election or effect an adjournment. On
the other hand, Mr.. Lapham's chan
ces are conceded to have been never 80
bright as at the present time.
Mr.. Conkling and his friends based
their hopes on etfecting an adjournment
of the Legislature with the aid of Dem
ocratic votes. The futility of this was
demonstrated Wednesday when vote
was had in the Senate and the prcposi-
tion to adjourn was defeated by to u.
"Of course we would have been glad
of an adjournment, said a Democratic
leader yesterday. at would give us =
chance to 60 before the people next fall,
and possibly to carry both branches OF
the Legislature, thus insuring us one
Senator. But to ask MS TO join in elect
ing Mr.. Conkling is silly, for his elec-
tion would benefit us in no way"

What IL Has and Will DO.

"They cured me OF ague, biliousn s.

ed. had half bottle left which
used for my two little girls, who the
doctors and neighbors said could not be
cured. would have lost both of them
one night if | had not given them Hop
