There are some persons who think
that sign boards forbidding hunting or
trespassing upon private lands, and
cautionesy notices in newspapers, are
of little account, and thet they may be
disregarded with impunity. This is a
mistake, as the law makes it an act of
trespass to go upon cultivated or en-
closed land for any purpose without
permission (even if there is no sign
board), and the owner is entitled to
actual damages for such trespas. In
cases where sign boards are properly
erected, any person who tresp asses
upon land so guarded is liable to pay
not only the actual damages, but also
penalty not exceeding S25. If, how
ever, the owner wishes TO avail him
self of the provisions of the law he
must make his sign board comply with
its requirements. There must be al
least one sign-board, not less than q
foot square to every fifty acres of land
upon the lot lines, upon the shores ol
banks of the lake, stream or pond
which it is intended to protect, or in &
conspicuous place upon the grounds
to be so protected. Any person wht
defaces or destroys such a sign boarC
is guilty of misdemeanor, and liabl,
to penalty of S25.

The CONCERTED EFFORT through the
state to defeat the ballot reform meas
ure is becoming very clearly defined.
There is one safe thing, however, those
people who want ballot reform, the
honest, conscientious and intelligent
voter, will vote and labor for the much
needed panacea in our system of vot-
ing, and those who do not, and they
represent the boss element, the politi-
cal demagogue and pharisee, of course
VIII vote against the measure designed
for secret ballot, We believe the
measure will be defeated, but that is
no reason why large number of votes
should not be polled in its favor to lei
the bosses know that the people are
emphatic in their demand for secret
ballot.

sECRET soCIETY GOSSIP,

a*s Oak Grove Council, Pleasant
Corner, will celebrate their second
anniversary on Saturday with a big
picnic at which well. known past
councillors will deliver addresses.
~ Soon the grand old stars and
stripes will proudly float from the new
brick school house in Franklin town
ship. Lehigh Council, No. l01, Jr. O.
U. A. NJ, will put the flag in position.
~ The defunct Col. John S. Lentz
Camp, S. of ", will soon be reorganized.
The list of applications for member
ship now in the hands of Phaon
Strauss is quite large and made up of
good material. If you are a son of a
veteran, you should make it a point to
connect yourself with this order.
~ Lehigh Council, No. 1O1, Jr. o. U.
A. NJ, of this city, are now making
preparations for the appropriate cele-
bration of their sixth anniversary on
the 25th instant. The committee on
program are Jos. Bennett, A. Lukens
Hagerman, Ed. Ditterline, G. W. Nor
thinner and c. d. Mertz.
~ An item going the rounds of the
| press states that Odd Fellowship car.
ries on its work under the flag of thir.
/ teen different nations. Every one
hundred and fifty persons join the
ranks, and every day $4,000 are spent
| for relief of distressed members, widows
and orphans This is certainly an ex-
cellent record.
~ The Grand lodge of Pennsylvania
| Knight of Honor, will hold its biennial
sessions in Allentown during the Sc
cond week in October, The grand
! lodge will be in session three days
| There viii be about $50 delegates. The
order is an insurance organization
and has a membership of 125,OO0 in the
western counties, and some of the lead
ing men in the state are among its
members.
- Considering the age and infirmi
ties of the members of the Republic
/ the deaths in their ranks are not Sc
numerous as might be expected they
would be. A roll of $3.50 deaths in I
year out of total membership of 444.
3O7, is only about one-half the annua
death rate of Boston, where, with
population of 34S,OOO, there were 10, ,1S,
deaths last year 1t seems incredible
that the Grand Army death statistic,
can be correct, though there is no ap
parent reason why they should not b,
at least approximately so.

The State Fair. which will be held at
Bethlehem this year, opening on Sept. 21st
and closing On the Goth, i'll be joint ex-
hibition with the Bethlehem Fair & Driv-
ing Park Association, and will surpass all
other exhibitions. Many horsemen will
be present from all parts of the country,
aud excellent trials of speed are promised
Besides, there will be exhibitions daily by
the famous equestrienne, Miss Nellie Burke
who has been secured at an enormous ex-
pense. Thursday will be Governors day
and on Friday the firemen's tournament
will take place. The premiums offered ag-
gregate 1000, are larger than ever be-
fore, and this alone is sufficient proof eff q
great exhibition. The racing premiums
sum up $4 ,0G0, so that the races will be the
finest. The grounds are large enough to
accommodate 100000 people. The people
of Bethlehem and vicinity realize the great
attraction of the State Fair, and are very
enthusiastic over the fast approaching
event.

A CORPORATION THAT vindictively pur-
suos men after they have once left their
employ is unworthy and the state
should revoke their charter. The pur-
suit Of wealth and happiness is con
stitutional and inaleinable privilege
5hat should not and must not be in
fringed upon either by corporation,
private firm or individual The labor
OF is worthy of his hire, and isle thinks
that he is not being equitably remuner-
ated for his labors in the employ of
one party he has the right TO quit and
seek elsewhere for employment that
will return him a satisfactory dividend,
and the corporation, firm or individual
who will interfere with the man in his
effort to maintain his independence
and at the same time better his condi-
ten is on level only with the coward
and tyrant and meriting only the con
tempt Of honest, lawabiding citizens
The fullest freedom compatible with
good government makes thoroughly

Fannical usurption of the common mass
breeds discomfort, discord and the ac

golden rule and peace and happiness

The LANsFoRD RECORD is hilariously
jubilSnt over the failure of the dele
gates of the regular county Democracy
to secure recognition at the state con
vention at Harrisburg last Thursday
What more was to have been expected
whom the state organization so dwarfs
itself as to put in responsible place a
man Of the malloy calibre. The result
Of the convention was just as we an
tleipated and only what was TO have
been expected from an organization
that permits itself to be gulled by its
benef1cisries. II was not a defeat for
the regular Democracy, but was only
an acknowledgment to the other side
for dancing to the music Of the state
bosses. Waitl

records and stationery by the whole

doing considerable damage. Some
valuable papers were torn up and
chunked into the stove. Prof.

his school records scattered on the
street, while part of Prof. Krueger's

that the teachers have kept the mat
