The following will be of interest TO resi-
dents of the various boroughs in This coun
ty: The new law in regard To burgess
and town councils of boroughS in this
state clothes the burgess with autOcratic
power. 1t gives the burgess veto power,
and in order to pass a measure over the
veto, a majority of council and one more
is required. The burgeSses in the differ
ent boroughs of tie commonwealth We're
elected this spring for term of three
years. The act of assembly passed March
%, 1898, says that he shall not hold any
other Office or appointment during the
term ard shall not be eligible TO the office
during the succeeding term. Every ordi p
nance passed by the council shall be pre-
scented To him, and if he approve il eshall
return IL with his signature attached at
the next regular meeting. If he does not
approve il he shall return the ordinance
To council stating his objections. If two
thirds of the members of council shall vote
TO pass said ordinance or resolutionit shall
become and be of full force and effect As If
the burgess had signed il. And ifSuch or
dinance or resolution shall have been pre-
sented TO the burgess and he fail TO return
il at the next regular meeting with or
without his approval, the same shall be-
come of full force as II he had signed ii.

Chance for Teachers.

The great offer being made by the Pitts
burg Dispatch To take the sixty teachers
os the public schools of PittSburg, Allie
gheny aud other points in Pennsy ylania,
Ohio, West Virginia and Maryland To At
lantic City in July is the talk of the hour.
The additional inducement that the twelve
teachers of the sixty who receive the largest
number of votes will be taken on sup
pIementary trip To Philadelphia, New
York and Boston after the Atlantic City
trip is over is Indicative of the liberality
which governs the PittSburg Dispatch in
everything il does. give your favorite
teacher the benefit of a splendid summer
outing.

The election board of this borough, by
adYlce of the county commissioners,
agreed after its organization on Tuesday
morning To correct the mistakes made by
the EbenSburg MOuntdiheer in printing
the tickets. The names of the candidates
were properly written so that the FIVE
names in which mistakes were made might
be properly recorded. An examination of
the manuscript was made and the names
found to be written correctly and plainly
by Squire Il. j. Stephens, who is one OF
the best penmen in town, so that the fault
lies entirely with the MOimtdineer.-Gdl-

DEAN, fd-. feD- 1871
Editor Cambria Freeman:
SIR:-The school entertainment held in
this place on February %, in honor Of
Washington's birthday, was a success
| The program was arranged appropriately
by the teacher, Miss Ada Grimes, and was
carried out with exactness. which was
patriotic well as entertaining The
room was very much crowded but good
order prevailed throughout the exercises.
The house was called 10 order at 7:3O p. NJ.
by the chairman, Miss Jennie Abernethy.
An opening address was very ably de-
livered by Prof Johnston, who along with
Others remarks, gave a biography of
George Washington which was highly ap-
precia ted by the audience. A song en-
titled Fair as the Morning was then
sung by the school, followed by a recita
tion by Wrenda Abernethy. Next was an
essay by Mr. Norton on the Memory of
Washington - followed by one minuu ue talks
on various other subjects. RecitauOns
We're then recited by the following per-
sons: Misses. Eva Norton, ''Whistling in
Heaven" Stella Smith. "GLoSt of the
Manor" Tillie Norton. Naming the
Baby" Jennie Abernethy, Sister and l: :"
Agnes Gabriel, ''Nobody's Child" Stella
Will, "MabIe with her face against the
pane" Other recitations were then re-
cited by Master John McGee and Clay
Abernethy, followed by select reading by
Miss Ada Grimes and Mrs. Abernethy. A
paper was then read by Miss Stella VIII,
followed by a debate, Resolved, That
Thief is Worse than Liar" which after
some discussion was decided in favor Of
the affirmative. A song entitled Times
Up" was then sung which concluded the
evenings entertainment. IA.
WEST READE TWP, Feb. "a. 1894.
Editor Cambria Freeman:
SIR:-Before the late election the Demo-
Gratis of West Reade township nominated a
ticket and Lemuel Troxel, one of oar best
citizens was nominated for supervisor.
Mr.. Troxel stands high among his neigh
borS, and being a man of sound judgment,
his election was generally conceded On
the day of the election everyone was as
tOnished TO find Mr.. Troxel's name did not
appear on the ticket. What can we do
about ii? CITIZEN.
We have also received a letter from
another resident of West Reade township
in which, besides informing US that Mr.
TroXel's name had been left off as a candi-
date for supervisor, states that the name
of the Republican nominee for constable
was left off. OF course by petition To the
court setting forth the facts the election
might be set aside, but whether il is worth
while to go that trouble is matter for the
people TO judge for themselves. There is
scarcely an election district in the county
that was not served in the same way and
we suppose the people will have TO put up
with il. The blacksmith shop that did
the printing says they made money by il
and the commissioners are very well salts
fled with the work. What more do the
people want? DO they want the earth?-

A Meatless Bone Of Contention

The Conference Committee on the

the House and the Senate. THIS is
not a matter OF momentous interest
to tariff reIormers. They abandoned
hope Of real tariff reform by this Con-
gross months ago, when the Ways and
Means Committee showed the strong.

At this time there is NO sufii ,ient
reason why the tariff wrapgle in Con.
gresa shonld be protrscted. Between
the Wilson Bill and the Senate bill
there Is 3 considerable chasm, it is
true, but Il is neither so wide nor so
deep as to make the bridging Of it in
conference matter OF serious and
prolonged contention. In the end the
outcome, whatever it may be, will only
signify q little more or 3 little lesl

THE House passed on Saturday
by a vote of I57 to 4o--a two
thirds vote being required-the
Tucker resolution providing for an
amendment to the constitution, for
the election of U. S. Senators by
direct vote of the people. This is
the second time the House has put
itself on record on this question, but
the Senate has never even taken it
up seriously and there is little prob
ability that it will do so now, al.
though there are dozen or more
Senators who have publicly en-
dorsed the idea.
