THE MIsTAKEs oF AN oRaAN.

THE MISTAKES OF AN ORGAN.
/ recall the fact that the Journal is not for
the whole Republican ticket this year and
yet it delivered itself the other day of the
| following grsat thought:
"The Republicans OF Schuylkiu county
should remember that there are other offices TO
be filed besides a iudgeship. There is a Con
gresham to be elected, and what is still more
important to the people of this county,
members Of the Legislature. Don't let the
| fight for judge draw attention from the other
| important onic S to be filled, such as District
Attorney, Director Of the Poor, Coroner and
the ofilces mentioned EFFORTS should be made
TO make the Wlote ticket Utctorious, not u
section Of IT,"
The italicised sentence Is my own. Every
Republican knows that the Journal is not
for the head of the county Republican
ticket. In fact the fact is known to every
| body who reads that the morning daily of
town is opposed to the election of the Re-
publican candidate tor Judge on the county
ticket, Richard H. Koch, E.q., and hence
our remarks in this behalf and the gratui
tous republication of the foregoing semi
editorial. The man who is favored for the
I position sspired TO BY Mr Koch by the
paper quoted from may exclsim,

if cur morning contemporary continues to

The attacks on Hon w. +. Harrity,

evidence that the advocate Tor the election
of part of this county's Democratic ticket
is making another mistake for which

enter into the judge fight 10 the county this
! fall. MIR. HaIrity Is very strong with a
large CLASS of the very people who are
expected to stand by the gentleman who is

1t may be a mistake on our part to call
attention to the mistakes of the opponents
of the Republican county ticket, for the
reason that they

two.

The newspapers of the county are devot-
ing considerable space to speculation on
the effect the formation of the new electric
railway company will have upon the NJ
c., s., G. s. A. electric railway. Some OF
the papers have announced that the latter
company has been swallowed by the new
syndicate and that Judge Sadler has re-
tired from the presidency. Eleven out of
every dozen reports on the matter are wide
of the mark Judge Sadler has not retired
and the M. O., S., G. 81 A. railway re-
mains as it was, with all the promoters still
interested, The new company is 3 syndi-
cate of several prominent Philadelphia
and Ohio capitalists who propose to furnish
capital, material and power Tor electric
railway projects in the county. The rail-
way now in operation is not part of the
syndicate. OF course it is possible that
when the syndicate secures its charter and
gets in shape for business it will purchase
the road now in operation. But that road
is to-day in the hands of the 5adler COM
pany.

wEBB,s HORRIBLE DEATH.

Joel webb Falls Face Forward on q
Red Hot Stove and Death Results
From His Burns-Rumors of Foul
Play. Hut They Are Not Substan-
tiated.
Joel Webb, proprietor of a small fruit
and confectionery store at 101 High street,
near Elm street, was burned to death at
his store yesterday by falling face fore
most upon red hot stove. Mr.. Webb
was seventy-four years of age and for sew
eral years past has net lived happily with
his wife, and only recently after distur-
bance between the two, petitioned the
superior court for divorce.
According to the statements made by his
wife, about 1 o'clock yesterday the old
man was taken with an epileptic fit in the
room back of the store while abe was in
the store waiting on q customer, and fell
on his face upon the stove. When she
went into the back room and found him
she summoned young man who happened
to be in the store. They lifted him off the
stove and carried him up stairs, where
few minutes later he died from the effects
of his injuries. She hastily summoned
DR.. Stetson, but his efforts were of no
avail.
Efforts were made last evening to see
DR.. Stetson in reference to the matter but
without avail. There were some ugly
rumors on the street last evening to the
effect that the sudden death of the old
man was very mysterious in view of the
strained relations which were known to
have existed between the couple, and the
fact that his sudden death had not been
reported to either the coroner or medical
examiner, but no facts could be cleaned to
warrant any suspicion of foul play.
Medical Examiner White was notified by
the police authorities of the matter, and
will make an Investigation this morning.
Mr.. Webb was a well known and much
respected old man, liked by all with whom
he came in contact, and has been for q
number of years a constant attendant at
the First NJ. E. church.
