Grow and the Populists.

During the fall campaign last year

assurance of Ex Governor Beaver that
the Democrats were not responsible
for the wave of business depression,
inasmuch as the wave in question
came along in the periods when such
things happen, and the assurance that
Democratic policy must deal with a
situation created by Republican ad-
mlnistration is very good for Ex Gov

To Test the Lottery Law.

Fred Price, Wilkes Barre hotel
keeper, was taken before the mayor OF
that city on Friday for violating the
lottery law and was placed under $3oc
bail for his appearance at court. The
complaint was made by Officer Scuhler,
who swore that he went into the hotel
and bought ten cent cigar and re
ceived two tickets from the bartender
that entitled him to two chances on a
gold watch which would be drawn for
on Saturday night. The officer did
not win the watch but next day ordered
Price before the mayor. Mr.. Price
said tina; he did no more than many
other business men were doing in that
city, but the mayor thought it ha,. a
tendency to draw young men to his
bar to spend their money and placed
him under bail.
The lottery law seems to be a
dead letter as it is being violated in
almost every town in the state. 1t Is
we'll test case is being made to
see whether the law can be enforced,

OLD TIMES AND NEW.

"No man after having tasted old
wine straightway desireth new, for he
saith the old is better" The above
quotation | presume states fact. My
own experience with either old or new
wine is not sufficient to warrant me in
expressing an opinion as to the merits
or dement's of either. There is a class
of people who, whether lovers of old
wine or not, seem to think that old
times were better than the present.
They never weary of telling US
oung people about the good old times
when they were boys and girls. Hon
esty, virtue and morality was then the
rule and not the exception as at the
present day. They even go so far at
taxing our crcdulty as to tell us, that
politicians were then honest.
People holding those opinions are
generally old enough to be able to a
certain extent to speak from exper-
lence in those matters, and it would
therefore seem like presumption for a
young chap like me to contradict
them.
The feeling that the past was better
than the present seems to be as old as
the history of our race. The Israelites
when journeying through the wilder.
ness to the promised land, longed for
the flesh pots of Egypt. When bat,
tling for possession Of the land, they
thought it had been better for them, il
they had been left to die in the wilder
ness.
Those who see no good in the pres
ent, and no prospective good in the
future,
Are inclined "to mourn for the days
that are gone,
When noble could do as he pleased
with his own;
When the stealers of sheep and the
slayers of men,
Were hanged up together again ant
again"
l think, that if some of our octoge
narlans could be turned back to theil
boyhood days, and have to tramp ou
their wheat with their horses, or bea
1t out with a poverty club and ther
cart 1t over the mountains to Eastol
in order to find market, they woulc
conclude that the old times were no
quite perfect They would long 70
some of our modern improvement
quite as earnestly as the Israelite
longed for the flesh pots of Egypt.

This attracted the attention OF the
big Republican leaders, and they
flocked to Grow and finally brought
SO much pressure to bear upon him
that he backed out of the meeting al
the eleventh hour and pretended tc

meeting.
These facts came out in Pittsburg

Indiana, one of the leading populisl
men Of the State, came there to con.

Thompson brought with him a let
ter from w. H. Thompson, Populist
chairman of L1ckawanna comfy, to
gether with original letters to them
from Galusha A. Grow regarding the
meeting in Scranton. In the letter
w. H. Thompson says. under date of
January 4th, 1894, that f. G.. Warden,
a candidate last fall tor Commissioner
of Lackawanna county on the Popu
list ticket, asked Grow to come and
speak for him. Grow had previously
spoken in Farmers Alliance meetings
and promised Warden he would help

on Grow.

pies of the Peoples party platform p
asked NIr Warden. 81 am fully &C
quainted with it," answered Mr.. Grow,
and | expect to make a speech of an
hour and half on the lines laid down
in it,"
Then, in reply to a letter asking
him to fix date for the meeting, Mr..
Grow wrote, under date of Glenwood,
Pa, September 10Th 1898, to E. G.
Worden:

at any meeting where had promised

The meeting was fixed for October
Sth and SO advertised. Then the let
ter continues, meeting of Republi-
can leaders was held in Scranton and
Grow summoned. When he came
out he declared he thought he was to
address Republican meeting, and
under the circumstances could not
speak to Populists. Mr.. Thompson
says in his letter he has Crows letter
in his possession.

The farmer referred to never made
any inquiry in reference to wool. He
never kept any sheep. Down with
the robber tariff, that is what wa:
voted for-that is what Congress was
commissioned for. The crusade
against the Wilson bill is only an old
trick. The Wilson bill is the pivotal
