In Foster township both tickets were
cut up badly, but the Republicans made
tremendous gains, as can be seen in the
returns published in an adjoining
column. 1t was thought that the dis
satisfaction existing among the Demo
Gratis would not be carried to the polls,
but it appears that it was, with the re-
suit that the whole ticket is defeated,
with the exception of Carr for justice Of
the peace. The figures given were near.

Applying for Work.


From the Standard.
A great many of the old employees of
the Lehigh Valley, who were left idle
oy the late strike, are making application
for work on the d. S. & S. since the
company has arranged to run coal to
tidewater. The majority of these men
are among the most competent men the
Valley ever had, and the D. S. & S.
could do no better than secure their
services.

Forcing Miners to Terms.

CHICAGO, Feb. IA special to a morn
ing paper from Massilon, Ohio, says: Every
mine in the Massilon district has shut
down to remain closed, so the operators
have formally declared, until the 5000
miners dependent upon them for employ
ment concede to the terms demanded.
The trouble was precipitated one week
ago, when, without warning, the opera
tors issued an ultiWatum naming Feb. 10
as the last date they would pay prevailing
prices, and that thereafter the men must
accept Jackson county wages or none
at all.

RESULT OF THE VOTE.
DEMOCRATS DO BETTER THAN EX-
PECTED IN FREELAND.

Republicans Elect Two CounciImen and
Ticket Tie-Democrats Lose in Foster
The Result in Butler and Halle.
The result of the election here on
Tuesday shows that the Democrats elect
ed their whole borough ticket, with the
exception of one school director and two
counclmen. The state tickets were a
tie at IT'S each, and considering the bit
ter fight made against some of the Demo-
cratic nominees their election by decis-
i've majorities was surprise to their
friends and opponents alike. OF the 3Sl
votes cast there were 4S straight Demo-
cratic tickets and SO straight Republican
tickets; the other 164 were cut up in a
terrible manner. The special tax levy
for light and water carried by an unex-
pected majority, and the opposition
against the question was not nearly so
much as was looked for. Nothing was
left undone to bring out full vote, and
the friends of the several candidates
worked increasingly all day to accom-
plish success. 1t was, without doubt,
the hottest political contest that has yet
taken place in the borough.
The following is the official vote of
Freeland borough The total number
poled was 3Sl. In the first column is
the vote for each candidate, and in the
second is the plurality:

PRONOUNCED SMALL POX.
Board of Health Order Pest House Sc.
cured and Patients Put Therein.

About two weeks since the Tex
ARKANIAN as good as said that small
pox existed here. Just after the
three deaths from the disease, on
College Hill, we said situation was
alarming, and insisted that proper
steps be taken to isolate and stamp
it out This paper was condemned
by many for speaking out as it did,
and little attention was given the
matter for ten days, until more
cases developed, and quarantine of
infected houses only began day be-
fore yesterday. We are not dispos-
ed to find fault, but state facts,
from which conclusions may be
drawn. AS will be seen below, from
actions of Board of Health, terri
bic condition now confronts us,
which might not have been near so
bad, had earlier proper action been
taken.
Yesterday afternoon at 4 o'clock
the East side board of Health met
to hear the reports of Drs. Simmons
and Webster who had been sent out
(as stated by this paper yesterday
to diagnose the malignant disease
prevailing on College Hill and other
portions of the city.
N. L. Davis, because of inexper
ience, etc, asked to be excused as
president of Board which was done
and City Attorney Jno N. Cook was
elected instead,
DR.. S. A. Simmons reported
that he had gone around with DR..
Webster andexamined thepatients,
and still maintained that disease
was malignant chicken pox.
DR.. Webster reported that he had
examined p patients, and in his
Judgement it was distinctly small
pox. Said other physicians had al
so so pronounced after examination
and strongly urged insolation and
other safeguards be at once taken.
Stated that he felt there was great
danger Of an epidemic of the dis
ease; took a deep interest in the
city's welfare, and would make no
charge for his services in making
examination. (Visito-s cheered his
generous unselfshness) Stated
disease was located on College Hill,
and in Fair View, 2 blocks West Of
], w. Stewards, also on Laurel st,
about four blocks below court house
in Sand Flat,
BY vote of the Board of Health,
the disease was pronounced small
poX.
A motion was carried that the
President of the Board and the
Mayor provide a pest house, and
that all patients having small pox
be placed therein; and recommend
ed that everybody be vaCcinated,
On motion all schools, public and
private, were ordered closed until
disease is stamped out
Board adjourned, subject to call
! of President.
