LowELL.-Christmas passed off
quietly in our city.
A. A. Romig has been confined to
his house for the past two weeks
with sore throat, but is improving.
Old man, it is time for you to let
up little with that five you got at
the last campaign. Some of the
boys are not pleased that you keep
their share along with your own.
Chas. Houser has excepted a
clerkship i'll the hardware business
with his former employer, j. Il. Sci
heimer of Lewistown.
Some of our farmers are through
ploughing for their spring crop.
The boys of the calithumpian
band, furnished Johnnie Wagner
with some choice music the night of
his wedding. Johnnie was well
pleased, and furnished ,ots of cigars
for the occasion Their wishes are
that he may never die, or II tree fall
on him or any of his family.
Perry W. Treaster has broken
ground for his new house, which he
intends putting up this winter.
Boys, if you say you will not do n
thing for the year, stick to it, and
don't do it. Such n thing as TO use
mint lozengers to kill the smell of
some 30 be joyful, - which you had
taken before you went to see your
girls is ridiculous.
W. g., you don't make II bad
police on certain occasions, as you
are only called upon on criminal
cases, the State should present you
with II badge of honor.

PAXToYvLLE. Nearly all our boys
and girls who are away working.
came home to spend the holidays.
We are tempted To wish Christmas
would come more than once year.
Seeing our friends brings more
cheer than all Santa Claus goods.
Some OF our folks almost came to
the conclusion that Christmas ex-
changed temperature with Fourth
of July.
Our entertainment on Christmas
eve passed off very pleasantly and
satisfactorily.
Mrs. $. Bowersox and Mrs. j. S.
Hassinger spent several days very
pleasantly i'll Sunbury and Milton.
Miss Amanda Weirick is spending
the holidays in Harrisburg.
Alta Schambach, Evora Attig, viii
and Ira Harner, and Charlcr Howell
put in smiling faces ON Xmas. fresh
from the "city."
j. r. Swcngle from c. p. College
and +. L. Gift from Bloomsbury
Normal are spending their vacation
at home. We hear the guns bang
ing i'll the woods every day. Our
boys are learning to be skillful hunt
ers. They must make good ap-
pearancc for they obtained dinner
consisting of pie and doughnuts
free gratis. Perhaps there were
some other attractions-ask Ira and
Grant.
Two Germans, with their tools,
on their way to Johnstown for work
were found dead above the water
house on Sunday morning, horribly
mutllatod. A third partner jumped
the train here on Saturday evening.
These two men were seen sitting bv
II pile of warm cinder at the r.
Il. waiting for train. 1t is suppos-
ed they fell asleep and the train
killed them III the night. One had
"A home, wife and child in Philadel-
phia. The other was single. Their
partner that left on Saturday eve
ming was hunted up and found. He
took the married one home on Mon
day. The township Overseers pre-
pared them both for burial and bu-
ried the other man here in the grave
yard. 1t was very sad and pitiful
scene. CLAIRE.

Sunbury & Lewistown Division.
Time Table, In effect Nov. IL, 1889
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1890-05-01

IT TRANsPIREs, as we thought it would,
that there was nothing in the sensational
story which came from Denver the other
day to the effect that ADAMS was to be de-
posed from the presidency of the Union Pa
cific, and the road turned over to the con-
troll of DILLON, GOULD and SAGE. At the
annual meeting of the stockholders yester-
day the old board of directors was chosen,
the only new man going in being MARVIN
HUGHITT, who takes the place of the late
DAVID Dow. Mr.. HUGHITT is the Chicago
s. Northwestern man, and is the choice of
the ADAMS crowd. 1t would be a mighty
bad thing, we think, were the Union Pacific
to change the management or policy at this
time. While neither is as progressive as
the people along the lines would like to see
it, there is steady improvement IN this
respect while the solidity of the company
is all the time increasing.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1890-05-01
AVOID TROUBLE.

We sincerely wish that the influence of
the great contest between employer and
employee which will open in Europe and
American to day, and close nobody knows
when, could not reach Salt Lake. There is
nothing here that should call for that influ-
ence. So far as we can learn there is no
really serious disagreement between those
who hire and those who labor; there is Ger
taiuly nothing so serious that it cannot be
much easier adjusted by talking the matter
over freely and frankly than in any other
way. A strike or lockout would prove
extremely injurious not only to the par
ties Immediately interested, but to
the community in general. We are
all counting on unexampled activity
in the building industry for the prosperity
which has been predicted and is con-
tidently expected. There is nothing else
that will make money plenty and furnish
employment to the mechanics and laboring
classes. If we stop building, what will
the wage-earners do! What will the men
do who require stores, offices and resi-
denoes? Whence will the cash come that
people must have? All cannot make money
or living buying and selling real estate and
merchandise; in fact, a very small percent
age of the community can live in that way ;
the many must work for wages, and if they
do not so work they will suffer.
AS before remarked, the relations be-
tween employees and employers in this
city have generally been of a satisfactory
character, the rights of each other being
considered and respected. If misunder-
standings nave occurred or disagreements
arisen, consultations have usually set mat
tiers to rights, the consequence being that
strikes and lockouts have been almost un-
known. Ii the wisdom and consideration
of the past shall be continued what goes
on in Chicago New York, Boston or else
where will not affect bosses or workmen
here. The course that will be the best for
all concerned and which will be dictated
by reason and common sense, will be pur-
sued, the welfare of the city in general as
well as that of individuals or classes being
all the time taken into account.
The Salt Lake herald. [volume] (Salt Lake City [Utah]) 1870-1909, 1890-05-01
REAL ESTATE Is ALL RIGHT.

If the falling off in the number OF sales of
real estate were accompanied by decline
in prices there might be real occasion for
alarm, for this would indicate that the buy
ing that was so brisk few weeks ago was
all speculative. When people ceased to buy
at high prices in Los Angeles, the prices
were lowered; people with money still fall-
ing to buy prices were dropped again, and
purchasers not materializing, the prices
kept on going down, and latterly the sales
have been those by the tax collector, the
city and county taking in hundreds and
thousands of lots which could not be dis
posed of under the hammer for the amount
of the taxes. That condition OF things would
naturally be alarming to property owners
and people interested in town. Nothing
of the kind exists here, nor is anything OF
the nature liable to occur. A number OF
men have defaulted on their options, and
lost the money they advanced. These sums
have been insignificant, amounting to
small percentage of the purchase price, and
in no instance has the default lessened the
price of the land. The owners In most
cases would not sell for what they offered
the property originally, confidently beilev-
ing that when bona fide purchasers come
along they will get more for it. 1t is also
worthy of note in this connection that OF the
many mortgages that have been given
within the past two years none has been
foreclosed, all being taken up when they
fell due, or extended by the holders.
The lull in the market is accounted for
easily. There was too much speculative
buying Men with small capital bought
heavily in the expectation that the influx
of permanent buyers would be much
greater than it has been. The spectators
gambled on mushroom growth, and if
they have lost it is because of their error
of Judgment in this respect and not on &C
count of paying too much for property.
The bona tide buyer, the man who pur
chased either to hold and improve or to re
tain until the legitimate increase of popu-
tation will produce buyers, is supremely
content with the present condition of
things. He is not troubled by fears that
something will occur to decrease the value
of his property, and not having oyerreached
himself he does not look forward to option
day with fear and trembling. There was
never a time when the real estate market
was in healthier condition than to-day;
there was never time when owners were
more content to hold land at the prevailing
prices, or were less eager for the coming of
buyers.

THE JOINT BUILDING.

When the city council, few weeks ago,
ordered the suspension of work on the
joint city and county building chill ran
down the spinal columns of those who were
counting on busy building year. Some
people interpreted the action to mean that
the new council would be less progressive
than the old, while others thought they
saw a gentleman of color looking in the
woodpile. 1t soon became nolsed about
that the proposed structure was to be aban-
doned in the interest of a real estate Syndi-
cate, a new site to be selected for the
benefit of landowners. Whether OF not
there was the least occasion for the
intimation we DO not pretend to say
but it was manifest that the
stoppage of work was an injury to the
city, in that it discouraged others and con-
veyed the impression that the corporation
was lacking in faith in the future of the
town and was also unwilling to do its share
towards maintaining ''brisk times" Not
a few persons have complained to THE
HERALD of the unwise course pursued by
the council in this matter, saying that the
action would prevent the investment of
many thousands of dollars in buildings.
At the regular session of the council on
Tuesday evening work was ordered
resumed, the mayor being instructed to
ask for bids. The plan adopted by the pre-
yious council will be followed, and it is
assumed that the structure will
soon begin to assume shape. This
order will be hailed with pleasure
by the people generally, because it
will restore confidence and insure a pros
porous year industrially. The money that
the building will cost will cut compare
lively small figure in The affairs of the
town, but the fact that the corporation is
progressive and IS erecting magnificent
public building will help things amazingly.
In this connection let US hope that for the
sake of saving a few dollars nothing about
the structure will be sighted. The city
and county treasures are both in splendid
condition. The work can be carried on
without Gripping either. or neglecting
other things. 1t is not likely that there
will be any thought of another building for
either the city or county for many years,
hence this one should be made first-class in
every respect, an ornament and credit to
the city.

THE PROPRIETOR and editors of the New
York World have been indicted on the
charge of criminal libel, Judge HILTON,
the companion, friend and legatee of A. t.
STEWART being the party assailed. The
World has been printing some awful things
regarding HILTON, making him pose as one
of the worst rascals on the face of the
earth. If half that has been published is
true, HILTON should pass the remainder of
his days at Sing Sing; if half is false it
would be tough jury that would acquit
the slanderers.
