Many people are under the inn
preston that it is violation of the
postal law to send postal card
through the mail inscribed with the
debtors account and requesting
prompt payment. There is really
nothing in the law forbidding such
dunning message through the
mails, so that any creditor desiring
to collect the money due him in
this way can do it by postal card
This must be done in proper langu-
age, however, merely reciting what
is due the sender of the card, and
requesting payment thereof, without
threatening to do anything in case
of failure to comply. 1t is the use
of threatening language on postal
card which outlaws it and renders
the sender liable to penalty =

RAIL ROAD NEWS.

On Thursday Of last week it was
rumored on our streets by both the
friends Of the Railroad Company or
Mr.. Taylor and the friends of e. j.
Gaynor Il Co., that the misunder-
standing existing between the Co.
and contractors of the railroad
would be speedily adjusted by
arbitration. Both parties were said
to be anxious or willing to dispose
of the matter in this way. The
three arbitrators were chosen and
comprised the following gentlemen,
viz: Messrs. Henry X. Nichols,
chief engineer of the Reading ;
Charles e. Webster, acting chief
engineer Of the Lehigh Valley, and
J. Henry Cochran, of Williamsport
and Treasurer of the w. u n. B. r.
r. 1t was supposed that these
parties would go over the grade and
estimate the work done by the con-
tractors the latter part of last week,
but on Saturday night word came
that Mr.. Taylor OF the railroad Of
ficials had refused to arbitrate the
matter, hence, the adjustment of the
difficulties by arbitration was
abandoned. This move on the part
of Mr.. Taylor caused no little com
inent on our streets, but it soon
blowed over and railroad talk re-
mained quiet here until Tuesday,
when it was announced that Mr..
Gaynor had made an assignment of
his property.
A dispatch to the REPUBLICAN,,
dated at Pottsville gives the follow
ing on the assignment
"E. j. Gaynor, the railroad con-
tractor, made an assignment on
Monday, Gath, to Attorney Nicholas
Heblick, for the benefit of creditors,
without preference. Gaynor has
done considerable work of late years
for the Pennsylvania Norfolk and
Western and Lehieh Valley Com
panies, and at present is engaged on
section of the new Lehigh- Read
ing link, connecting Williamsport
with the Lehigh at Bernice. Judg-
ments amounting to nearly $4,000
have thus far been entered. Assets
nominal, cause, losses from low bid
ding and general business reverses. "
This settles the matter until the
property of Mr.. Gaynor is disposed
of when the creditors will come in
for their proportion of money arising
from the sale. 1t is conjestured
however, that should his property
GO for anywhere near its value, there
will be a sufficient amount to pay of
all of his indebtedness.
The sheriff sale of the personal
property of Gaynor & Co. at La
porte and along the line of railroad
which was TO have taken place on
Monday July Oath, was postponed
until next Monday July 3lst at 10
n. IN.
The Rail Road Company are COM
pleting the grading of the road and
have at least one hundred and fifty
men at work along the line. The
Company pays their employees each
night. They hope to have the road
entirely completed and cars running
by the lst of September.

ing the September term of court in.
The school room on the first floor
and occupied by the primary grade
will be used rs grand jury room
and a room up stairs adjoining the
institute room will be occupied by
the traverse jury. The commits
sioners were obliged to abandon the
idea of holding court in the Presby-
terian church, owing to the fact
that this building does not contain
two rooms for jury rooms. The
school house answers the purpose
very nicely and we are sure that all
will be pleased with it. There is
only one unpleasant feature about
it-there is no side walk leading to
the structure. Our town council
have permitted and even forced
the children to walk through mud,
snow and over ice to the school
room for the past three years, and
we, with the pupils of the school,
think it high time that the council
give this matter their attention and
erect good substantial side walk
to the building for the convenience
of the children. 1t is q necessity
and should be done.

Every nation has it's assigned space and
IS rushing It's preparations. Every state in
the Union has its own building well under
way, and TIE last to attract attention for
their beauty and appropriateness are those
of Florida anf Idaho. 1t is not necessary
now to so into details as to their archi-
lecture and general designs, seeing that
there has already been great deal of that,
but the two structures will attract atten-
tion because of their contrasts. They rep
resent the old and the new-the first settle
ment in what is now the United States
and almost the last; the far south and the
extreme northwest; the regions where a
man must live half the year under roof
and the region where he may live all the
scar under the sky, and finally the grizzly
bear and mountain lion against the tarpon.
alligator and manatee.
The Florida building is an exact repro
-duction of Fort Marion, the old Spanish
fortress at ST. Augustine, which is one of
the Oldest and most picturesque relics of
colonial days.
