Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-11-22

The idea so prevalent among Halle
tonians, that the Freeland people who
oppose the scheme do SO because there
is no possibility of the county buildings
being located here, is ridiculous. The
people, in and about Freeland, who are
against the new county, don't want them
at all, either in Freeland or in Hazleton.
In fact, if such thing must be, Halle
ton is the proper place for them, for
nothing would be of more service to that
city than to have halls of justice and
places of punishment for the many
crimes and transgressions of the law
which are committed in and around its
borders, and for which the criminals in
most cases are allowed to escape.
Freeland tribune. (Freeland, Pa.) 1888-1921, 1894-11-22

BILE advantage. In and about Freeland,
where the opposition to the plan is sup
posed to be centered, there is no visible
sign of distractions being placed in the
way of the measure, but that does not
indicate that the opponents have given
up the struggle, and the real battle will
likely take place at Harrisburg, as it did
before. What the result will be cannot
be predicted at present, for the friends
of the new county seem to be in dead
earnest this time and are endeavoring
to interest some of the big politicians of
the state.

New Opera Houses for Texas.

New York Dramatic Mirror shows
that Texas cities in general have de-

Crank Cox, theatrical architect,
has contracted to build several more
new houses in Texas, including a
new ground floor theater in Calves.

Will Not Go Into the Primaries.

TIE county Democratic commit
tee has ordered primaries, but the
chances are the vote will be light.
There will not be an expression of
the party for county officers and
corruption and fraud will, as has al.
ways been, select the nominee of
the party. The News has heard
Of many in the city of Waco who
will not go into the primaries. A
gentleman from West was asked the
sentiment in that part of the county
yesterday, and he stated that a meet.
ing had been held last week and out
of l27 voters l23 had declared they
would not vote in the primaries.

lend color to the story of privah ons and
want Of the people of that state.
In the face of these stories of suffering
it is rather astonishing to read the follow
ing item from an exchange describing a
very "modest" farm house lately erected
in the state where so much poverty and
suffering exists at is in Queen Anne
style, with all the interior decorations in
hard wood. Plate and bevelled glass will
be used in pleasing contrast with the
ordinary farm house. Red and blue slate
will be used for roofing, while the grounds
will be surrounded by handsome fence
composed Of base of native limestone,
q heavy cap of Alta Vista limestone, sur
mounted by a tasty railing of nickled
iron"
The only conclusion we can reach after
reading the above is that the Kansas
article Of poverty is quite different from
that of this section.

IT is expected that the "modeln town of
Pullman will be the scene of some terrible
riots within the next few days, the streets
lowing witt human blood. The defeated
strikers have been driven to desperation
by the grinding system of the big and
powerful car corporation, and, according
20 latest reports, are ready for desperate
aeeds, OF course, they will accomplish
nothing by this sort of thing. The law
s all powerful, as it should be, and the
Wretches who trample upon its majestic,
pitiable though their state may be, will be
surely and Justly punished. There should,
however, be some leg 81 way of compelling
she Pullman princes and dukes TO do jus
ice to the men employed by them.

Louisiana through its two senators
(Gibson and White wanted to know be-
fore we entered upon the campaign-with
no threat, with no inquiry except that
which an honorable man had right to
make-what the policy of the party was
to be under the apparently free trade reso-
lutions adopted at Chicago. After a great
deal OF talk, after the most careful con
slderation, that candidate of our party
told them as he told the public through
his letter that the Democratic party was
not to destroy industries, that it should
place fair duty upon dutiable articles, a
revenue duty; that the bill which had
met his approval was the Mills bill and
on the line of the Mills bill the Demo-
cratic party would act The junior sena-

ever charged me with perfidy. No soul

These two senators and myself, carrying
out the pledge of our party, whose candi-
date was indorsed 10y us, have stood here
and been gibbetted as three men who
were in a sugar trust. 1t is due, sir, TO
those with whom | am associated to say
that no man here would believe such a
thing, but it is due to the man who writes
the history that he shall have the truth of
the transaction.
"What is our duty? What did we agree
to dor We placed in your hands, Mr..
Chairman, and you Democrats the power
to say what we ought to do after careful
and unfettered conference. No such con-
tidence on the part of all our party has
ever been given to men as we gave to you.
Let this degree of confidence continue.
Let this bill go back to a conference on
J the part of the two houses. These thunder

ming, these exhibitions of temper, all must
clear the atmosphere and enable the con-
ferees to give new hope and new life to

colleagues that on the material points il
