A Left-Hander.

The Lehighton ADVOCATE issued a
double sheets page-last week, in honor,
of the county fair, and to show its enter
prise. While it was creditable publica.
tion, we noticed that our ancient enemy
kept up his reputation for eating crow. 1t
used to be the boast of our esteemed con-
temporary that the ADVOCATE was the
only paper in the county that was all-home
print, insnuating that sheets that were
otherwise were second-class alongside OF
the ADVOCATE. However, our Brother
has our best wishes for success, whether
he uses plates or Lehighton "deYils" to gel
up reading matter. If you are not a sub
scriber of the ADVOCATE. be so no longer

A Nice officer.


While a party of ladies and gentlemen
from Allentown and Bethlehem were being
driven from Lehighton borough to the fair
grounds by Mr.. Kresge, of Monroe county,
they were stopped on the public road by
Policeman Weida, of Lehighton, who with
a club in one hand and pistol in the other
grasped the horses and turned on the driy-
! er and occupants of the carriage, and in
y vic ent and threatening manner, demanded
? that Mr.. Kresge pay his license before pro-
oeedinga step further. Mr. Kresge replied
that he did not know what the borough
, Nws were in regard to paving icense,and
respectful manner asked the officer for
- rlnation, whereupon the officer seized

Nand, dragged him from the carriage.
