for his watch; The man held his watch
while the thief had the chain, and by a
sudden jerk he broke the chain and was
about to make of when he was seized by
the man, but with a quick movement he
slipped out of his coat, leaving IL in the
hands of his would-be captor, and made Off
with the piece of chain. About half hour
afterwards he came up to the gentleman
who was standing in front of his hotel and
demanded the return of his coat the gentle
man refused to give it up and the thief
threatened to sue him for stealing his coat
in the first place, for felonious assault in
the second place, and for getting property
into his possession under false pretenses in
the third placel If you can beat that
for cheek out your way, walk up and take
the head.
Politics are jest bilin' here, though It is
rather amusing TO see the different estimates
that the respective party papers form of
each other. Take up 1.-The Tribune" and
1.-THE Press" and you learn that all is quiet
at the Democratic headquarters; that Scott
has been practically laid on the shelf and
that German is running the Committee,
and that prominent Democrat was heard
to remark that Cleveland hadn't the ghost
of change, and that apathy reigns SUI
preme in the Democratic Committee, fol
they felt that Free Trade had drowned the
party. Then take look at "The World,'
1.-THE Times" "The Herald" "The STAR
or 1.-THE Telegram" and you there learn
that Harrison has virtually retired from the
race and that Mr.. Morton had refused tC
open his barrel as he knew it was money
thrown away. "The Worlds" most rell
able reporter was sent to the Republican
headquarters to interview Mr.. Quay, bu
finding him absent, learned from clerl
that Mr.. Cleveland's popularity with th'
masses and the firm stand he had takei
for civil service reform and Protection mad
his success so inevitable that the Republi
cans had concluded to throw up the spong
and make no further fight. The plain fact
are that both parties are thorougly organ
lied and working like beavers. For work
ing efficiency the present Democratic Com
mittee has never been surpassed; it is per
feet in every department. The same ma
be said Of the Republican Committee. A
the head of every bureau are gentlemen @
great ability and experience. A more abl
body of men never guided that party t
victory or defeat. 1t is fair race and
square race. Which will winp Let u

THE CRAWFoRD COUNTY SYSTEM.

The working of the above system in this
county would be as follows: Carbon county
has oyer $500 Democratic voters. Under
the delegate system candidate who would
poll 500 or 1900 of these votes could be
nominated as against the man who might
poll 2000 votes. Under the Crawford Coun-
ty System the 2000 would beat the 500 or
1900 every time. Is there anything unjust
or unfair about this? Take for instance a
district like Lehighton. A candidate might
poll for his delegates 101 votes and his OPP
ponent 100, yet in this poll the opponent
would have no representation whatever al
though he had within / vote Of one-half of
the entire vote polled. To be specific his
100 votes as against the 10l are certainly
entitled to some consideration and proper
tionate influence in the selection of candi-
date for the party. What is true of Le-
highton is equally true of every other dis
trict in the county. No further arguing is
necessary to show the Justice of leaving the
Democratic voters decide in direct man
ner who shall or who shall not be the party
candidates. This is fair for the people but
it wonderfully dwarfs the influence of the
bosses, and that is where the kick comes in.
Do you see? Upon this principle every
Office seeker submits his claim directly to
the people who are the legitimate power.
No bosses, no rings or cliques but each and
every voter votes directly for the candidate
of his choice and thereby has direct voice
in the nomination.
This is fair for the Office seeker and the
voter, but it gives the bosses pain. That's
what hurtsl

BROADBRIM'S N. Y. LETTER

The man who takes a stroll through
Printing House Square after an absence of
two or three years, will have to inquire his
way around or get city guide to pilot him.
1t is true that the ugly Tribune steeple
shoots upward TO the sky in the same place,
and the majestic figure on top of the City
Hall looks benignlY down on the hoodlums
pitching pennies under the Mayors win
dows in the Park while waiting for the
evening editions Of the "The Noones,"
Telegram" "World" and "Sun." The
Park is there-that is what remains of it,
and the Post-office solid as Gibraltar TO the
front. The statue of Franklin reminds the
reflective American and the unrenective
foreigner that we had some great men once.
Save and except these all else is changed.
At the junction of Nassau Street and Park
Row, massive and grand rises the magnifi-

peculiar manner in which any building was

outside walls of the old building were TAX
en- down but the inside rooms were retained
intact, and the work went on just the
same, although new building was put
up from turret 10 foundation stone. The
''Times" building promises to be one Of
the finest newspaper offices In the city.

PERSONAL AND POLITICAL.

The most striking thing Judge Thurman
said since he left home was his warning to
lot of Ohio Democrats that If they
wanted him for Vice President they must
go to work. The Judge is one OF those
long headed statesmen who can discern the
outlines of great truth without the aid of
telescope.
Philadelphia Herald-It may be all right
for Republican tariff howlers to employ i'm
ported pauper labor because 1t comes
cheaper; but it is evidence that high tariff
taxes affold no protection to labor, while
they increase the cost of living TO the
laborer.
No prominent Democrat in Connecticut
can be found who is willing to accept his
party's nomination for governor, and no
one seems to know who will head the tick
ct, although the convention is only week
away. This illustrates fairly the apathetic
condition. of the Connecticut Democracy.
Rep. Exchange.
President CleYeland's contribution to his
own campaign fund is just one-fifth the
salary of the Office he now holds. This
will probebly be regarded as the pace for
the other office-holders throughout the
country, as they haYe the same
relative stake in the contest that he has.
1t will be royal feast for the Democratic
Committee and great Doodle campaign if
the office-holders can be made to down that
way.-Phila, Press.
Four years ago thousands of men voted
the Republican ticket, not because they
loved the Republican party, but because
they feared train of evils would follow
Democratic success The dread of the
Southern domination and a clean sweep of
civil service regulations haYe passed away.
The country has been prosperous and the
government honestly administered, and in
November next thousands who four years
ago opposed Grover Cleveland will be found
working and voting for him.-Dover, IN.
j. Inder.
A proposition it under consideration by
the Democratic campaign managers to ar
range for joint discussion of the tariff
question by speaker Carlisle and Mr.. Blaine.
1t is proposed TO challenge Mr.. Blaine to
meet Mr.. Carlisle and dispute the question
in alternate speeches in twelve principal
cities of the Union, six to be named by Mr..
Blaine and six by the Speaker. The opinion
of number of prominent Democratic Con-
gressmen as to the advisability of such a
course has been asked, and there is very
general concurrence of approval.

Nomination of Auditor General.

HARRISBURG, Pa, Aug. 2s, 1888.
The Democratic State Committee, pur.
suant to the call of Chairman KIsner, met
at the Bolton house to-day, with Kisner in
the chair to nominate candidate for Au-
ditor General, and transact such other bus
iness as might come before it, The meet
ing was exceptionally well attended and
enthusiastic. Every section of the state
was represented and the reports as TO the
condition of the party, the prospects of
success and enthusiasm of the body of the
party was most encouraging and inspiring.
Acquisitions and converts To the cause of
tariff reform we're reported from all sec
tions. The gratifying feature of these re-
ports is the fact that these converts are
from the workingmen and that the cry of
free trade as superinduced by the Fat Fry
ers, has fallen most fiat, or like the child
unborn, inanimate and helpless. The ev-
idence is satisfactory that since the toilers
have taken up this tariff question as a mat
ter relating in its application to every indi-
vidual, dlvested of its hobgoblin feature,
that the cry of protection for the sake of
protection by the Republican party is a
frand and imposition upon the credullty of
honest men. That 1t benefits the few, and
oppresses the many. In this manner the
issue is pressed home to every voter In the
State, and che result is that the night-mare
of few years ago has become the shibbo-
leth OF emancipation from industrial op-
preston.
Another feature strongly manifest was
the praise accorded Chairman KisIer for
his perfect and earnest management of the
Democratic campaign. Reports from ey-
cry section confirm the mastery manner
in which he has managed the party's inter-
ests throughout. Every detail has been
attended TO with the sole purpose of ac-
complishing the result aimed at and a seru-
pulousuess rejecting credit of the highest
kind. The admiration and commendation
of the chairman as politician understand
ing the why and the wherefore of every
political move must be gratifying, indeed

SINCE JAMES G. BLAINE HAS SAID
that ''Trusts' are private affairs which do
not concern the public, District Attorney
Rapsher's article in the May number of the
North American RerieIv has become par
ticularly conspicuous, as it is undoubtedly
the most exhaustive discussion of the sub
ject in this country, and also the most wide
ly circulated. The people of Carbon county
may well feel proud of the distinctly e honor
which they enjoy in this matter through
one of its most unassuming citizens.

CoalAayanced.

The anthracite coal combination deter
mined Friday to further squeeze the con-
sumers of coal throughout the United
States by increasing the price of coal at
the mines from 10 to 20 cents per ton.
Eyer since the carrying companies decided
to advance the tolls on coal to all points 10
to 80 cents per ton there has been un-
easiness among individual producers who,
argued that they were more entitled 10 an
increase than the railroad companies. The
constantly decreasing stocks, kept short
by under production, was also an argument
advanced by the barons to give anappar rent
reason for their action.
