Congressman Howard Mutchler is a
reformer and economist in the house
as he and Congressman Paynter sub
mitted a minority report from the com
mittee on accounts Disappearing of
needless clerks to several unimportant
committees.
OF course this has brought down on
their heads denunclations by those
members who have friends to reward
at the expense of Uncle Sam, but the
two gentlemen named hrayely stood by
their guns, and were finally sustained
by vote of the house.
The ground they took, that while the
country was suffering so much from
business stagnating, it was worse than
crime to foist upon the taxpayers
useless aud unnecessary expense, was
too strong an argument to be combateC
so their victory for reform in congress
ional expenditures was easily won.-

PASSENGERS SHAKEN UP.


A Mishap on the switchbaeI That Might
Have Seen Serious.
An accident, which almost by a
miracle did not cause injury TO some
one, happened on the Switchback, at
Mauch Chunk, on Saturday. A car
on which we're number of Bethlehem,
ties, while coming at a terrific speed
down the "home stretch" broke an
axle and jumped the track. The pass
enRers all escaped with slight shak-
ing up. The car was a very old one
Persons who saw it say the axles wert
worn thin from long usage. Severa
refused to board it and waited for &
new car. Had the accident occurred in
any other place save the level spot OIL
which it did there would certainly
have been fatal results, and the raj
road company would be TO blame fol
permitting such rickety affairs to b.
used on the road.
The track was blocked for severa
hours. The passengers we're compel
ed to walk to the station distance o
about mile by the railroad and
couple OF miles by the railroad tracks
Several Young women who took tn
latter route were compelled to ereel
on their hands and knees over the higl
bridge which the tracks cross. Th
Switohback will soon lose popularity i
it permits traffic on on old, worn ou
cars which are liable to break down a
any moment. Bethlehem times.
