WAsHINGToN CITY, March 2-Jerry
Rusk for president is the latest thing in
the political line in Washington City.
Uncle Jerry does not know it and has
not even been consulted, but number
Of Republican senators, eager to defeat
Harrison's denomination, have agreed
to take up the farmer statesman from
Wisconsin at the proper time and nom
mate him If they can swing enough
votes TO do It, Their argument Is that
Rusk il popular with tue farmers and
therefore would be a great votg getter;
that he has good record ~ a sol Iier and
that he has had experience enough in
public fairs to show that he is "A man
Of ability and capacity. II Is also
argued that If Jerry Is put forward in
/ the convention he could weaken Harri.
son where Harrison supposed he would
| be the strongest-in the West aud
South. If the Republican senators sue
ceed In bringing enough anti-Harrisor
Republicans into line for Rusk, IL II
probable that a break for him will b'
arranged i'm the convention.

ANNEXATION SURE.
The Points and BirvantOn Almost Ready
to Knock for Admission.

Those who have allowed themselves
to believe that the annexation project
had taken another sleep are badly mis-
taken. AS stated some time ago in the
TRIBUNE the Points is ready for the
movement, although very little discus
sion of the subject is heard in that part
of the town. A survey has been made
and the map defining the territory to be
annexed to the borough is now ready.
1t includes all the land south from South
street, to a point few yards south of
the Lehigh Valley tracks; it extends
eastward to the alley east of Adams
street and westward to the alley west of
Ridge street
AS considerable of this land is owned
by Coke Bros. q Co. these are the limits
which they would agree to, although the
people who are pushing the matter are
blocks and the whole of Coke addition.
1t is not deemed advisable, however, to
oppose the wishes of the Drifton opera
tors, and the boundaries described above
are regarded as sufficient at present.
Birvanton is also anxious to break
away from debt-ridden Foster, and the
property owners there are almost unani-
mously in favor of having the borough
limits extended in that direction. The
day after the late fire at that place pc
tition was circulated and received many
signatures. The work has been going
on quietly since, and Surveyor Benner,
of Conyngham, commenced this morning
to make survey of the district and will
have a map of the same prepared in
short while. The petitions of that place
and the Points will be presented in court
at the September term, and that they
will be granted there need be but little
doubt.
1t now rests with the residents of
South Heberton whether they will al
low their part of the town to remain in
the old rut or whether they will step
up, like the southern and western por-
tions, and seek admission to the new
and enlarged borough. There are
number of public spirited men there, and
if a few of them take hold of the ques-
ton the new and old parts of South
Heberton and Alvintown can make their
entrance in September with the Points
and Birvanton. They have nothing to
lose but much to gain by such change,
and if they don't like the new order of
things it is very easy matter to 60 back
to the old way of paying exhorbitant
taxes and receiving no return.

OUTSIDE POLITICS.
Democratic County and Legislative Can
didates in Schuylkill.

uiuates IN SchuylK1l1.
Scbuylkill Democrats assembled on
Monday and nominated their ticket.
The judgeship contest was where the
main fight centered. The names pres
ented were those of Hon. Cyrus l.. Per-
shing and Hon. John w. Ryon. The
ballot taken, resulted in 51224 votes for
Pershing and 3472t for Ryon. Judge
Pershing's nomination was made unani-
nous. For congress Hon. James B.
Reilly completely showed under w. F.
Shepperd by vote of 69404 to 1856.
The other nominations were James w.
Ryan, of Pottsville, for district attorney;
William Derr, of Shenandoah, for direc-
tor of the poor, and DIR. Marshall, of
Ashland, for coroner. The platform re-
affirmed the principles of the one adopt
ed at the national convention.
The Democratic legislative conven-
tions, held at Gilberton, Ashland, Tam
aqua and fremont ON Tuesday resulted
in the nomination of John B. Reilly, of
Shenandoah, to represent the first dis
Warren F. Follweiler the third. The
fourth legislative convention nominated
P. F. Bauer, Schuylkill Haven; George
Opie Donaldson and William J Kennedy
of Pottsville. The twenty ninth sena-
torial district convention nominated O..
]. Aregood, of Pottsville, for senator.
The Republicans of Carbon decided to
hold their convention on Monday, Au-
gust s, and are confident of electins
their ticket, as the Democrats are still
divided into two factions and have little
prospects of coming together.

Pointers for Bar Room Beats.

A hummer went into saloon the
ether day and proposed to the proprietor
to "put up' his umbrella for drink
1t was furnished, and the bum then
opened and shut his umbrella, thus
leaving the saloon keeper dumfounded.
OF course the saloon keeper couldn't 60
back on his agreement, but in the future
will not get canght in that way.-Ashley
Observer.
This fellow must be partner to the
rounder who worked the stamp act' on
a Catawissa landlord. This bum walk
ed into the hotel and asked the barten-
der if he would take stamps for drink.
Certainly" said the barkeeper, as he
sat out the bottle, supposing the fellow
meant postage stamps. The tramp
downed about six fingers of the liquid,
and, after he had put out the fire with a
big drink of water, solemnly gave five
resounding stamps upon the floor with
his foot and walked out. 1t was half
an hour before the bartender spoke,
and then it sounded something like
"Ibedam. ."-CatGaoisSa Item.

The excursion train to Luzerne Grove
on Saturday from Freeland will leave at
7.30 A. M. The fare for adults is $1.00
and for children, 60 cents, which is the
cheapest rate the public has yet been
offered to that point. The excursion is
under the auspices of Owana Council,
No. AZ, Degree of Pocohontas, l. o. R. NJ,
and has every prospect of being largely
attended. The Grove is very pleasant
spot to spend day. All kinds of
amusements are on the grounds, includ-
ing boat swings, merry -go-rounds, base
ball diamond and one of the finest ball
alleys in the county. DePierro's orches-
ira will accompany the excursion and
furnish the dancing music. A large
number of the order from Wilkes-Barre
and other towns in the upper end have
notified Owana Council that they will be
there and assist in making the day a
pleasant one. The train will leave the
Grove at 6 f. M. for Freeland.

OFFICIALS TROUBLES.
A Political Office Is Not a Sinecure In
Some Places.

Some Places.
A petition was filed in the Schuylkill
county court on Tuesday by several citi-
zens of the school district of Cass town
ship, making complaint that John Cur
ran, Michael Brennan, Patrick Ryan, ].
P Donohue, Daniel Dugan and Patrick
Brophy, who constituted the school board
of the district, had neglected to perform
their duties by the organization of the
board as required by law. A rule was
granted by court, returnable next Mon
day, to show cause why the seats of the
members should not be declared va
Gated.
The auditors of the same county have
had some difficulty in accounting for
some of the receipts and expenditures of
the commissioners Office and county for
the year 1891, so Commissioners Bowes,
Deturk and Reed and Chief Clerk Con-
nell were summoned to testify what they
knew regarding the expenditures made.
The commissioners refused to make any
statement, and were served with a capias
writ. The outcome of the investigation
is awaited with interest.
The farmers and citizens of Butler
township came next and organized for
better roads, and as preliminary to the
movement have caused the arrest of
Supervisors Stiztzler and Sweeney
charging them with neglect of duty. A
mass meeting has been called for to.
morrow evening, when the subject will
receive further consideration.

East Side, the little town on the Le-
high river opposite White Haven, be-
came borough recently, and one of its
ordinances, as described by the Journal,
would seem to show that the inhabitants
will not tolerate late hours. The ordin-
ance in question refers to barrooms and
drinking places, and directs that they
shall be closed each night at 10 o'clock.
If they are found open after that time
it is declared to be the duty of the con-
stable, police and citizens to so inform
the burgess, who shall issue warrant
for the arrest of the offenders, and if
found guilty they will be fined $5 to $40
for the first offense, and $40 to $50 for
each subsequent offense, one-half of
which fine to go to the informer, and the
balance to the borough.

At the request of the single tax clubs
of Pittsburg, Philadelphia, Pottstown,
Bradford, Germantown and Reading, a
conference of the single tax men and
women of Pennsylvania has been called
to meet at Reading on Saturday, August
6. Any resident of Pennsylvania who
believes in the single tax may attend
this conference and take part in the pro-
ceedings.
Those who contemplate attending
should forward their names to Charles
S. Prizer, Reading, Pa. The railroad
companies absolutely refused to make
any reduced rates for the delegates and
those who attend. The railroad men
know the single tax would reduce their
power and place them on an equal foot
ing with other people, so they won't
show any fayors to the enemies of mon
opoly. The conference, however, will
be largely attended, notwithstanding the
petty spite shown by Mcleod and his
kind.

NONUNlON MEN AT WORK.

About 175 Men Believed to BE in the
ArmOr Plate Mills.
HOMESTEAD, Pa, July 20.-For the first
time since the present lockout began the
Carnegie company made pretense Of start
ing it's mills here. 1t was something of q
surprise to Homestead people to see smoke
issuing from the armor plate mills, but they
were still more surprised at noon when the
big whistle was blown for dinner hour. The
full power of the whistle was not put in
operation, but the people recognized the
oldtime sound, and many of them looked
down toward the entrance to the works to
see If gangs of workmen were not pouring
out on their several ways to dinner. But
none came.
There were workmon inside the works,
however, and they were pursuing their
duties in a businesslike manner seemingly
without thought that an armed guard was
necessary to protect them. These men
were brought into the works secretly by
the company within the past week. They
came a few at time until yesterday, when
the company succeeded in getting in num-
her of workers sufficient to guarantee the
starting up of the armor plate mills The
company is believed to have about IT'S men
at work in the armor plate mills. Included
among these are five steelworkers believed
to have been brought from the works of the
company at Braddock.
Mr. Brennan, the attorney of the Anal
qamated association, has advised the asso-
citation officials to communicate with the

ing diligently to secure the necessary
funds for its completion before the win

For the past few weeks the foreman
of the stripping at Highland has been
greatly annoyed by number of Free
boys who were doing all kinds of mis-
chief and in general were making life
miserable for him and his men. Their
principal amusement, however, was
throwing stones at the horses and drivers
that haul the stripping clay. On Mon
day the foreman could stand it no longer
and he had two of them arrested.
Policeman Seiwell brought the boys be-
fore Squire Stroh on Tuesday evening,
when they were given hearing and af-
ter paying fine of $3.50 each they
were allowed to 60.
