GET OUT THE VOTE.

The Democrats are on the run. Get
out the vote.
Their campaign Of abuse and villifi-
cation has reached its climax week
too soon; has burst in all its filthy fury
before the ballot harvest could be gar
nered; and now the smut-throwers of
the opposition are brought face to face
with an indignant public reaction. Get
out the vote.
1t is time to bury scurrilous personal
abuse as method of campaigning.
This will be done to the height of cri-
tical taste If Republicans everywhere
will get out and vote.

Rink and Ice Track Being Built at the
Driving Park.
An enterprise, which, if properly con-
tinued, will meet with the support of a
large number of persons, is the winter
skating rink now being arranged by a
number of business men. Work has
been started at the Driving park on
the rink proper and an ice track for
horses.
1t is hoped that the ground will be
ready to flood by the time the first
continued spell of freezing weather ar
rives. The grand stand will be altered
to contain enclosed waiting and recep-
ton rooms and refreshment stand. A
band stand will be erected and fourteen
arc lights distributed over various por-
tions of the rink.

SEWING MACHINE WAR.
Singer Company and Its Agent Ask an Al.
derman to Settle Their Differences.
Agent Wins the First Suit.

Agent Wins the First Suit
On Saturday suit was decided by
Alderman Fuller of much interest in
local sewing machine circles 1t was
the case of David r. Thomas against
the Singer Manufacturing companies,
and was the latest step in a course of
litigation which for some weeks has
been raging between the Singer COM
pany and certain of it's former employees.
During the summer several agents, of
whom Mr.. Thomas was one, severed
connection with the Singer company
and engaged with another sewing ma
chine company. The Singer has had
trouble with its ex-employes since. Mr.
Thomas was sued in replevin for a horse
and wagon he claims to have purchased
from the Singer company; also for q
sewing machine he is alleged to have
| lost He is defending both suits, but
in the meanwhile he brought suit
against the Singer company for ac,
crIed commission. Much feeling was
exhibited during the trial.
Mr.. Mitchell, agent of the Singer com.
pany, claimed offset against Mr.
Thomas of about 1854, but his evidence
was contradicted by five witnesses. The
aldei man gave judgment against the
company for the full amount of plain
tifG's claim. AS Mr.. Thomas says sev
eral hundred dollars of commissions are
still to accrue, and declares he will SUE
the Singer company every time 81 due
him is paid into the Office of the corn
pany the chances are that there viii
be plenty of law business among sew
ing machine men this winter

end of disputlng and vocal kicking be-
fore the first kick off, which was finally
settled at 3.45 o'clock, when the game
began. About 800 persons, many of
them ladies. were present and by yell
ing and hornblowing made manifest
the intense rivalry between the two
factions.
The Woods men made several long
kicks but before the game ended
changed tactics and kept the ball on the
ground. The Scranton men were the
heavier, and when time was called had
won by to in one of the cleanest and
most exciting games of the season.
The men lined up as follows:

A Card from the Men.

Peckville, Nov. 9.-We the employees
of the Blue Ridge breaker do hereby
wish to inform the public that the
Scranton Times has been misrepresent-
ing our treatment at the hands of the
Morgan Store company. We denounce
the article printed in the papers Of last
week as being nothing more than polit-
ical lies trumped up to injure the char
acter of one of the most respected Of
ficials of the Blue Ridge Coal company,
namely, Mr.. Clemons; and we further
state, that we have always been treated
as well, and bought goods at their store
as reasonable and of as good a quality
as we could have got elsewhere; and
also that it was at our own option If
we traded there or not-nothing COM
pulsory.

The LIGHT IS TURNED ON
True Statement Of Facts About the
Morgan Store Company.
LIES OF THE TINES ANSWERED
Like All Its Campaign Material the Pluck
Me.store Articles Were Nothing
but a Tissue of Falschoods.
Food for Voters.

The following communications have
been received by The Tribune for publi-
cation in answer to the malicious and
dastardly charges made against Frank
H. Clemons, Republican candidate for
sheriff:
The fact that the employees OF the
Blue Ridge Coal company are at liberty
to trade where they please and are not
discharged for not trading at any par
ticular store Is proven by the following
statement of facts: Out of the 683 per-
sons employed at the Blue Ridge mines
during September, 1884, 281 did not
trade with the Morgan Store company
during the month. OF those that did
trade SO traded less than 81 each, 101
traded less than 50 each.
One-fourth of all goods sold during
September were sold to persons not en-
ployed at the Blue Ridge mines.
Everyone is aware that the quality of
goods makes the price. The Times, in
comparing our prices (where they have
not deliberately misstated them) with
Scranton prices, quote our price on best
goods and Scranton prices on cheapest
goods. which can be proven by simply
comparing the price quoted by the
Times with the wholesale and retail
market prices as published in the Times
and other Scranton papers. 1t will be
seen how deliberately malicious and
false the comparison is.
We venture to say that we are selling
groceries at as low price as the Demo-
cratic candidate for sheriff, in whose
behalf the malicious and libelous ar
ticles have been published. After cleo
ton, If 1t can be ascertained that the
Times or its management have any pc
cuniary responsibility we will see If
there is any redress under the law. IT
will not be done as campaign fake
but as a matter of business.
