Political Points.

1t is said Chris. Msgee is tired of propping
up Dalzelps shattered boomlet, and while
he will not withdraw his support, he will
not go out of his way to help the lonely
young man.
Quay seems to have little or no opposi-
tion anywhere.
Ex-State Chairman Andrews has been
nominated for the Legislature in Crawford
county.
The Quay men are very happy over the
outlook, and say that their favorte will
win hands down. There will be AZ votes
from Philsdelphis. Subtrscting the 8
Democratic members from this leaves AZ
votes to be voted at the caucus. A Quay
man stated positively that 40 of these AZ
would certainly vote for Mr.. Quay. There
was no question in his mind but what the
result of the caucus would verify his pre-
diction. He said I'VE feel that Mr..
Quay will have practically all of Pnila-
delphia and more than half of Allegheny.
Now that is q pretty good basis to start on.
In addition to that we have won every
thing in Armstrong Schuylkill, Snyder,
q Union and Lawrence counties. Then we
have Erie and Crawford counties. 1t will
be the same in Mercer and Beaver, and in
every other western country can call to
mind Great Scott Where does Mr..
Dalzell expect to get his delegates.2 He
gives up the west. What has he in the
east2 Not Philadelphia, nor Schuylkill.
The truth of the whole matter is that Mr..
Quay will have walk-oyer."
Schuylkill county was unanimous for
Judge Sadler. ...I.
James B. Lessig Republican candidate
for Poor Director, ought to poll big vote
in the country districts below the mountain,
where he is so we'll known,
Schuylkill county. Republicans will win
this year if there is anything in harmony.
John j. Coyle, of Mahanoy City, who
was nominated by the Republicans for the
Legislature, made many new friends in
town last week.

The Action sanctioned.

EDITOR EVENING HERALD Il have
just finished reading the article in the
edition of your paper Of this instant, re-
garding the action of the Town Council
relating to the. electric road. 1t seems to
me you do great injustice to the majority
by denouncing them, in the first place and
Withholding q material portion of the truth
in the second place. The article tends, in
my judgment, to lead astrsy those living in
our community and elsewhere from the
actual facts in the controversy. Among
the names published in your "blsck list
are some who were most earnest in the
advocacy OF admitting the electric road
into the borough and permitting it to use
the rail it wanted. The borough ordinance
adopted was changed TO suit the wishes OF
| the friends of the company and the ordi-
nance was accepted by the company, as W 4
supposed in good faith The ordinance then
as now provides that the, rC ad was to be
paved between the tracks and to the width
of eighteen inches with mountain stone ol
other suitable materials, subject to the APP
provsl of the Town Council as rapsaly a.

ing people of our community, has the com
pany complied with these provisions of the
ordinance Has it not neglected to do so
It will not do to say that the condition o
the weather, or lack Of time and oppor
tunity have prevented, because there is nc
intention on the part of the company tC
comply with the said provisions so far al
the present tracks are concerned and Judge
Sadler, the president Of the company, &c
stated to the Street Committee in thu
presence of the writer, but that th,
company would in certain tim,

THEY are having one of their usual
high old times down in Venezuela.
The republic is without law courts;
the Insurgents are in arms against the

confusion aud riot. What will be the
end of the outbreak can only be con

Shenandoah, April 9, 1892,
wants Them 70 ResIgn.


If there is any good reason for the action
taken by some of our Counci men in con.
nection with the building of the electric
railway it is their duty to acquaint the
public with it. II seems that some of these
highly honored people think the whole
town and its management rests upon their
shoulders, and that il is their duty to min.
der this enterprise in every way possible.
Why they should take such a stand is hard
to understand. They certainly do not
voice the sentiments of their constituents,
and do not seem to take great deal OF
trouble to find out what their wishes are
II the three Councilman who misrepresent
the Third ward think they have done their
duty, they should interview the people who
compose the district which they are at
present disgracing Lamb, James and Van
Dusen, in justice to your constituents, re-
sign, and invite Gable, Stout, Mcclure
BetEeridge and Coakley to go with you.

present temporary system for operating the
road. The first car left Girardvlle at
about q m. and the last csr left town at
1890 p. m. The traffic was immense up to
the last trip. t..a
All the compsny's force of motor men,
onductors and extras were out under the
supervision of John Fisher and William
Gummo, the experts from Harrisburg, and
they h .ndled the traffic admirably.
Messrs. Fisher and Gummo are spoken Of
very highly by the officials of the COM
papy and the men who are receiving
Instructions from them, 49,. a,oo.
Considering the present condition of the
system the traffic yesterday was surpris-
| ingly large There are no turnouts and
this prevents the starting of cars from the
shenandoah and Girardyille stations at one
time. 1t was suggested that cars be run
between the intervening points, but under
existing circumstances this arrangement
would inconvenience the company, and
the many transfers would have been OBJ
Ijectionabe TO the public. So to try to
meet all conditions the company ran the
cars one way, few minutes time inter-
vening between the start of each, and then
ran them back to Grardville on similar
schedule.
The work of putting in the turnouts was
commenced and they will be located and
finished within few days. By that time
the feed wire circuit will also be complete.
Three of the cars ran pretty regular. One
of them, Car No. l, waa not on the road
quite three-qusrters of the time the other:
we're operated, but its indicator recorded
oil FIVE cent fares. Martin Phalen, OF
shenandoah, was the motor man and John
Fisher the conductor. Car No. 3, with
Daniel Jones. of Girardville, motor man,
and Robert Bennie, of Glrardville conduc.
tor, made return of 656. Car No. s.

Fred. III, Hopkins, conductor 1888. Gar
No. 7, Patrick Stack, of Shenandoah,

fares recorded for the day aggregate 2. 750
The record for Saturday was 1922 The
other men who filed posi- ions on the cars
during the day were Edward Devers,
Christ. Foltz, Edward Amour, Patrick
Whalen and james Leckie.
/ The cars were started again to-day on the
same running system as yesterday and win
continue 70 run on irregular time until the
turnouts are ready. a4t.s
Additional cars will be ready for ship
ment from Philadelphia 10 few days and
in day or two about fifteen new hands
will be taken on for training as motor men
and conductors. M, .....,...........

THE RAILWAY MATTER.

In another column of this paper will
be found a communication from j. H :.
Pomeroy, ESQ.,, in which be attempts
to justify the recent action of certain
members of the Borough Council that
brought about the stoppage Of new
work OH the electric railway. MIR,
Pomeroy's Interpretation Of the ordii
nance is correct, but his views regarding
the intentions of the railway are erron-
eous and he, unintentionally, perhaps,
places Judge Sadler in false light
when he says that gentleman had or
has no intention to comply with the
ordinance, and that he 80 stated. The
editor of the HERALD has conversed
with Judge Ssdler frequently concern
ing the ordinance and the gentleman
has always expressed himself as per-
fectly satisfied with the ordinance an6
has stated sincerely and positively
that he would comply with all its pro
visions. The railway company ha
always been willing to pave. 1t doe
not dispute the ordinance, or seek tt
evade it. 1t has asked for time to en-
able it to pave-snd pave permanently
The Councilmen complained of hav
attempted to enforce the ordinance a
it is worded, not according to its spiri
and they have made mistake. Tha
the action they took was based upol
prejudice there is ample proof,

REPUBLICAN CIRCULAR.

The following circular has been issued
by our United States Republican Central
committee.
There have come to the Republican
committee from various sources intinla-
lions that the reserve crop OF campaign
| lies for issuance the day before the
election is very prolific and unusually
sensational articles are to be published,
presenting what purports to be facts
from all Western states for publication
| in the East and the reverse for publica
| ton in the West when too late to be
| contraoicted, that shall have the in
| tended effect at the last moment of in
fiuencing large number of mon who
are always willing and anxious to be on
the winning side. They are to claim
in the East and give over to
the West bodily to the Weaver vote.
Carefully prepared tables will be pub
lished that shall prove their assertions
and demonstrate that the election of
Cleveland is beyond a question. Re
publicans all over the land should be
prepared for just this line of action.
They should discredit all claims not
based upon sure information, and the
more sensational the story the more
it should be discredited. The Irish
American vote is to have their careful
consideration, and roorbacks of the
most sensational character are to be pub
lished The sentiment of the race is to
be worked for all it is worth and sever
al prominent Americans who are
as firmly Republican as the head of the
ticket himself will be quoted
as having at the last moment turned to
the apostle of English interests and de-
serted protection and honest money for
the false gods of free trade and a wild
cat currency.
Be on your guard. Believe only that
which is consonant with common sense
or accompanied by unimpeachable testi-
mony, and do not change the conviction
that has come by honest thought, but
vote as your conscience dictates and as
you believe to be right.
You have the assurance Of this COM
mittee. based upon confidential and reli-
able information all over the country,
that the nominees of the Republican
party will be elected by constitutional
majority that shall be beyond all
question.
