seem to be taking root. This project was
discussed at length about two years ago
and advanced so far that some who favored
it set about it selecting name for the pro-
posed new county and "Hazsp' received
the choice. The matter dragged along so
slowly that sffairs demanding immediate
consideration finally st"pped in and di-
verted attention from it.
The re-opening of the question seems to
be backed by determination and forclble
arguments and if it acquires the strength
some say it will Shenandoah, Mahanoy
City, Ashland and the oth9r places north
of the Broad mountain will be relieved OF
the new court house burden.
There are many people north OF the
mountain who believe there is too much oil
the Ward McA lister business about Potts
Vile and the sooner we cut loose from her
the better. They say they have looked up
the law and can find nothing in it to pre-
vent the cutting off of part of Schuylkill'
The Constitution of Pennsylvania provides
that mo new county shall be established
which shall reduce any county to less than
four hundred square miles, or to less than
twenty thousand inhabitants, nor shall any
county be formed of less area, or contain
ing less population"
The new county sgitators figure so thai
they find they can contribute a population
Of more than twice twenty thousand, al
most three times, and yet leave Schuylkil
within the bodnds of the law. They sug
gest that line be drawn this side of tht
Broad mountain so as to cut off the follow
ing named places; Shenandoah, with t
population OF more than 1894 Mahanoy
City, 1925; Ashland, 1886; Mshsnoy
township, (Morea and New Boston ex
cluded). 5,08S; West Mahanoy township
4,743; Gilbertou, 1851; Girsrdville, 1854
Union township, 1,3lOi East Union town
ship, l,ll6i Ryon township, 706; tota
population of Sc, l89 This total deducted
from the population of the county (154, 1853
would leave Schuylkill with 1884
enough people to build new court houses
pave streets and build bridges for Pottsvill,
for years to come.
Another point made is that while such 1
division would reduce SchuylkilPs popula
tion fraction over one-third, it woulc
leave it with more than the 400 square
miles, required by law, intact. They admit
for argumentsake, that the one-third popu.
lation thus cut off will carry with it one
third Of the total square miles of Schuylkill
The county has $50 square miles. Deduc
one-third (250) and Scbuylkill will still re-
tain 500. Thus, it will be seen, that the
people north of the Broad mountain are
in excellent shape to combine for the for
nation of a new county.
1t is also said, and the statement seem,
plausible that Luzerne agitators would
receive their Schuylkill sympathizers with
open arms.
1t is quite likely that should the move

thrift bill, instead of being lessened, as
the aforesaid Democratic politicians
predicted would be the case.
The Democratic Labor Commissioner
of Indiana has also made a report to
the effect that the wages of working
men in hat State have greatly increas-
ed during the past year. Such testimony
as this to the splendid effects of the
Mckinley bill is terribly depressing to
the spirits of our Democratic brethren.
Col. R. G. ~Ingersoll truly remarked in
1876 that the only hope of Democracy
is in hard times and universal wretch
edness. Democracy" said the witty
Ingersoll, "hourishes in the midst of
low wages, ~pestilence and famine"
Now that the country is prosperous,
crops good and everybody happy, ex-
cept Democratic office seekers, Democ-
racy, as an organization, is in the
depths of despair.
While the Democratic editors and Of
flee seekers are sorely distressed at the
prosperous condition of day laborers,
mechanics and farmers, the Republi-
cans are all happy. They are the
friends of workingmen, and thank God
and the Republican party for their
prosperity.

THE Turney wing of Democratic edi-
tors in Middle and West Tennesse e
speak of East Tennesseeans as tories
because they had the patriotism and
courage to oppose the idiotic heresy of
secession, and in this canvas they are
more fiend like in their expressions of
hatred of East Tennesseans than thew
have ever been, except during the late
war, when the Turney Democracy were
robbing and numbering them. Seven
devils seem to have taken possession
OF these secession editors of the Turney
Democracy-not ~Beelzebub, Moloch, or
any of the big devils, but seven mean,
malignant, %groveling imps, such as in
the olden time entered into the herd of
swine.

INDIANA has a Peck whose name is
Peele-a Democratic statistician-and
his truth telling is doing his party great
harm. He gives figures showing, for
example, that the average earnings of
labor in that State for the past year
were larger than ever before, and the
cost OF living smaller. Such facts
spoil anti protection speeches butthen
most facts have a tendency to spoil
Democratic speeches.

others to it. They remind us of the

THE work of the International None
tary Conference has advanced far enough
10 show that bi-metslism is doomed.
Russia, Germany and Austria have their
finances on solid gold basis and oppose
a change. England will permit silver to
he made a subsidiary coin and legal
tender up TO IS. The Portuguese GOV
eminent has instructed its delegates to
act in harmony with England. Without
the cooperation OF Germany and En-
gland international bi-metalism is out OF
the question. The friends OF silver have
little to look for from the democratic add
ministTation, az Cieyeland's opposition
TO silver is we'll known, and We must ad-
init that the future for silver is not so
bright as the dollar itself. This condition
OF affairs must prove, in measure,
detrimental to the silver producing sec
tions OF the country. However, we see
no reason Tor great alarm. Silver will
lie worth a little lees on the market.
profits Of producers will be smaller, and
IN some cases wages may be slightly re-
duced. The slight reduction in the price
OF silver Is not the creates. calamity that
can bcfall our mining industries. The
repeal Of the tariff on lead is a more
serious matter, a. it would close down NIL
low grade mines. This is more to be
feared by the people Of Idaho than a re-
duction in the price of silver.
The Coeur d'Alene press. (Coeur d'Alene, Idaho) 1892-1907, 1892-12-03

The more the election frauds in this
county are investigated the greater they
appear, and rs the scheme to defraud
the people OF their will as expressed at
the ballot box is untolded the more
damnable it becomes. Not only were
frauds committed at Bonner's Ferry, but
at Albany Falls and in other precincts,
which shows conclusively that the plot
was deliberately and Systematically
planned before election. The indictment
OF Ernest Duerslin, Of the Rathdrum
Times, brings another phase OF the con-
templatsd fraud before the public. Il.
has been public talk for some time tina,
Duerslin received box, supposed to con-
tain duplicate ballot boxes. by express
from st. Louis. He took this box IRON
the express office at Rathdrum, and
what became OF them is a mystery. Yet
1t seems that the grand jury found evil
dsnee enough to indict Duerslin. 1t is
generally believed that others are impli-
Gated, and public sentiment demands a
thorough investigation and the punish
nent Of the guilty parties.
