"J. Artley Beeber, Esq. master in
the case of the Williamsport and
North Branch Railway Company,
VS.. the Philadelphia and Erie Rail
road Company, has filed his opinion,
recommending a decree in favor OF
the plaintiff, according to the pray
er of the bill. The document, which
decides all the points ID controversy
in favor of the plaintiff, is bulky
one. In q nut shell it decides that
the plaintiff has q right to enter the
city as desired, and virtually re-
strains the Philadelphia and Erie
from further impeding progress at
the point in dispute, viz: The
crossing in the lower end of the city
on the land of John Metzger.-

1t has been generally understood
that this litigation has caused the
delay in completing the W. q n. b.
railroad from Nordmont to point
on the L. V. Now that the case
has been determined we can hope
that work will be resumed at Nord-
mont bv the first of April 1891.

Marriages in Pennsylvania.

In 1886, thirteen per cent. OF all
the men married in Pennsylvania
married women older than them
selves. Eighty per cent. married
them younger than themselves, and
the remaining seven per cent. took
wives their own ages. The average
age of the men was twenty seven
years, and of the women twenty
three years. More men are married
at twenty-three, and more women at
twenty-one. This seems the favor
ite time. A woman of fifty-nine
married man of thirty-one, and a
Girl of twenty three took an old man
of seventy-four. The youngest
couple who ventured into matri-
mony was a boy of seventeen and
girl Of fifteen. One man of fifty
four married a girl of eighteen.
His age was just three times hers !;
and man of forty eight took girl
of seventeen. Where the men are
older, the differences in ages varies,
but where the women are older, it
rarely exceeds five years. Two
boys OF sixteen were married, and
two graybeards of eighty tried the
same thing, probably not for the
first time. OF l4,T26 women mar
ried, whose ages were given, 1865,
or 2T5 per cent, were less than
| twenty years old.

Jamison City can boast of one of
the finest Hotels in this section of

bad roads leading to the City, it
would be first class place for the

who would take pleasure in dealing
out a good time to their many friends

another Prohibition Defeat.

SIN the general Democratic cS lone
of last Tuesday the. fate of the Pro-
hibition amendment in Nebraskashas
been lost sight of. Enough returns
have been received however, to
show that itshas been badly defeat
ed. The majority against it will be
10000, and it may lie much more.
This is large majority in State
casting only 200 900 votes, and it
evidences how strong the sentiment
against the prohibitory method of
dealing with the liquor traffic is in
Nebraska.
Some weeks ago The Press stated
that'appearances indicated that..t the
amendment would be defeated by at
least 5000 majority. 1t made no
prediction, but based the statement
on the best information that could
be obtained. A correspondent took
exception to this and asked to have
bis prophecy put over against that
of The Press, and predict that the
5000 majority will be found to be
for Prohibition. The result shows
which came nearest to gauging pub
lie sentiment correctly. The state
ment OF TIE Press was intended to
be moderate and far inside the indi-
cations, as it turned out to be.
/ There was, besides, no attempt to
prophesy, but simply to give the
best and most accurate information
that could be obtained.
When the returns came in from
the Prohibitory amendment election
in New Hampshire in 1889 they were
carefully gone over, township by
township, and it was made evident
that there had been a decided re-
action against Prohibition all over
the State. 1t was as marked in the
rural districts as in the cities. From
these facts The Press concluded
that there was general drift against
Prohibition, and that there was lit
tie prospects of any of the amend
ments then before the people being
adopted. This statement was con-
demned as incorrect and unwarrant-
ed 10y the advocates Of Prohibition.
But when the elections had been
held in Massachusetts, Connecticut,
and Pennsylvania, it was seen that
The Press had accurately for.
shadowed the fate of tho amend
ments.
There is vast difference between
taking cold facts or lmmoderate
zeal as basis for forecastipg events.
The man who trusts to the latter Is
pretty apt to be misled, but the con-
scientious newspaper which relies
upon the former and seeks only to i
know the truth can give II very fair
indication of the drift of public
sentiment even a thousand miles
away"
In many instances even in Little
Sullivan, the members of tie Pro
hibition party become angry at pre-
dicGions made either in conversation
or newspapers, unless the drift of
the conversation is in their favor. |
This is uugentlemanly, unfair and
shows distinct prejudice upon the
part of the third party advocate.
The article above from the Press is /
very evident proof of our assertion
and this is why we reprint the same.

The result of the recent election
has brought many dark shadows up
on the Republican party, its future
resurrection now depends upon unit
ed word of the leaders of the party.
Quay and Magee have long been on
the outs and so long as this exists
we can expect trouble in our ranks,
which the result of Nov. 4th gave
undoubted proof. The minor Re-
publcans of this State. especially,
are becoming tired Of this sort of
things and plead that some action
be taken to relieve the feeling which
exists at the head of our columns. The
time mas come when the party shall
interfere. Quay and Magee have
held the reins of the Republican
party in this State one year too
long and it is high time that we
select another. Ex-State Chairman,
THOS. V. COOPER, who has car
ried us over many deep gulf, safe
ly, is the choice of the Republicans
in this section. 1t is true saying
that all politicians have their day
aud we agree with the popular opin-
ion that Senator Quay has experinc-
ed that time, much as we regret to
say it, vet it is nevertheless fact.

that the Prohibition party of this

His first step in active life was to at
tempt 70 fill the place of his father, who
died fighting for the south. His last
achievement was speech at Boston de-
filming the views of his people SO clearly
and candidly that even hostile critics were
charmed. And his last audible words
were, "If l die, 1 die serving the south.
the land l love so well. Father fell
in battle for it; am proud to- die talk
ing for it." 1t is hard for a limited in
tellect to reconcile itself to his death at
such time, yet it may well be that his
sorrowing mother spoke an important
tsuth when she said that his work was
well nigh finished. Itmay, indeed, be that
his death just at this time will add
weight to his words and do more than
his continued life could have done.

HIS PERSONAL HISTORY

Henry Wooden Grady was born in
1851, at Athens, Ga, of stock in which
runs the blood of the Irish patriots Cur
ran and OConnell. Athens is a pretty
place nesting among the hills Of eastern
Georgia; it is called classical Athens,
being the point towards which many
young men of the south turn for an edu-
cation. Grady's father was ~ colonel in
the Confederate army and lost his life
when his son, later on to be so intimately
connected with the rise of the then suffer
ing south, was but ii years old.
1t was about this time that young
Grady entered the University OF Georgia,
which is located at Athens. Here, after
brilliant course, he graduated first in
his class, and then went to the celebrated
University of Virginia, founded by
Thomas Jefferson, where he continued
his studies. The gift of eloquence was
apparent at an early age, and before he
became distinguished he had established
reputation among a limited acquaint-
ance as an orator.
Upon leaving college Mr.. Grady be-
came a correspondent of The Atlanta
Constitution, the paper he was 10 after
wards edit. In this field he soon gained
q reputation for being ptingent and
forcible writer. Desiring to act for him
self he established a paper at Rome, GA.
The paper soon became remarkable for
the strength of its editorial comments
from hn ~ hn
HIS RISE IN JOURNALISM.
But Mr.. Grady desired a wider field.
Atlanta soon began to attract attention
as one of the new southern centers, and
there Mr.. Grady went. He became one
of the proprietors of The Atlanta Daily
Herald. His work on the paper gave
him a reputation from the racy and pict-
uresque style in which he commented on
current events. But the paper was not
destined to live long. 1t was in direct
opposition to The Constitution, and there
was not room for both. In spite of The
Herald's brilliant management it went
to the wall in about year after Grady
undertook it. He made one more at
tempt to establish paper of his own.
lie started The Atlanta Courier, but
again failing he abandoned the attempt
altogether.
Mr.. Grady was still quite a young
man. He held a pen which was always
in requisition, writing for The Louis
vile .Courier-Journal, The Atlanta Con-
stitution and other papers. James Cor
don Bennett the elder appointed him
Georgia correspondent of The New York
Herald, and this position he held for six
years. In this way he continued to grow
in experience and reputation till fortune
came to him by lucky railway specula-
ton. Making some SOC, 900 by a rise in
railway stock he purchased with it a
quarter interest in The Atlanta Consti-
tuition.
FROM THE DESK TO THE PLATFORM.
As q journalist Mr.. Grady was at once
pungent, brilliant and possessed of excel
lent literary taste, With keen instinct
of what the public require in the shape
of news and editorial comment, he man
aged the paper in the interest of the com.
munity in the vicinity of Atlanta and
not without careful regard for national
