The appointment of John b. Reese, of
town, as . member Of the Miners Ex-
amining Board, was a wise action. Mr..
Reese is not only a careful and experienced
miner, but is also student OF mine work.
So
The line was closely drawn by the
majority members OF the School Board in
making appointments to fill the vacancies
in the corps of school teachers, but what
else could be expected The party in the
majority can hardly be blamed. They are
looking out for their friends The parties
who are to be blamed are those VINO
sacrificed everything in which they were
not directly interested to hold their posi-
tions on the Borough Council and retain
| their grip upon the tarcical joint committee
These are the people TO whom the parties
disappointed by the election Of teachers
must cast their glances Of reproach.

The work of locating and arresting the
young men who created the disturbance on
the electric railway last Saturday night is
progressing very satisfactorily. There
were about twenty in the gang and about
eight of them have been gathered in.
Some were simply fined, they having
pleaded guilty and set up a claim to mercy
on the ground that they were drunk and
did not know what they were doing.
Others were required to pay fines and costs
and also to furnish bail for tTial at court for
violating the Act of Assembly which
covers disturbances on railways. The COM
psny is prosecuting the search for the bal
ance of the offenders and will keep it up
until all the guilty parties are caught.

"Our pavements and streets are in better
condition at present than ever they were in the
history of the town, thanks TO the Dandy
Council"
The above is clipping from the Shen-
andoah correspondence in the Tri. Weekly
Record The son-in-law who feeds that
department of the paper in the interest OF
the Dandy Council could not waste ink
and paper on more ridiculous sentiments.
Even old gentleman Stout must scknowl.
edge that never in the history of the Dor.
ough has street work been so badly botched
= as it is this year. In his zeal to crown biz
pet officials with glory the correspondent
, stoops TO falsehoods.
