Luzerne Wants Rccorni,ion.

There Is a good deal OF complaint
heard here among Republicans that Lu-
zerne county has been entirely ignored
in the matter of appointments under
the Hastings administration. Not a
single Republican from this county has
been recognized, and this county has
not representative in any of the sew
eral departments OF the state govern
ment. In view Of the fact that within
the past few years old Luzerne has be-
come pretty reliable Republican coun-
ty it is urged that the Republicans
ought to receive some little recognition
for what they have accomplished.
There still remains an opportunity for
Governor Hastings to make amends
to some extent. There remain sew

shares Banks.

1t may be doubted II there Is another
city of 10000 people in the state that
has larger banking facilities than
Wilkes Barre, or one whose banking
institutions average greater measure
of prosperity. There are eight banks
in Wilkes-B -Barre-three national and
five state banks. The combined capital
stock of these institutions is 81 1,S25, 900.
and they have surplus Of $l.3S2, 600,
aggregating in capital and surplus the
enormous sum of $3,207 600 For years
there were a number of private or un-
incorporated banks here, but one after
the other either failed or wound up it's
affairs and disappeared. The Rocka-
fellow bank was the last of the lot and
ended the most dlsastrously. The wy
oming Valley Trust company Is the
newest of the banking institutions of
the city, having been organized after
the Rockafelow failure and now occu-
pies the same building. Two of the
banks have a surplus greater than their
capital stock, viz the Miners Savings
bank and the Wyoming National. Each
has a capital of $l50,000, and the first
named has surplus of 100000 and the
latter of $26O,000. There Is not today a
weak bank in Wilkes-Barre and all of
them are constantly growing stronger.

NEW COUNTY TALK.
HnzlctOnians Declare They will Continue
tho Fight from Year to Year

A number of prominent citizens of
Hazleton were in town yesterday and
talked freely as well as emphatically
about the defeat of the Quay county
bill on Tuesday. They are sorely dis
appointed but not wholly dismayed.
I'VE have sustained a reverse, but we
are not yet beaten" remarked one.
Said another: I'VE have net yet been
knocked out as often as the I.ackawan-
M people We're. They made fight after
fight and met reverse after reverse, but
they won finally, and SO will we. We
can afford to wait, our time will come
finally. The seltishness Of the people
of the county seat Is proverbial, and
yet there Is not even the element OF
common sense in their selishness. The
separation of Lackawanna county
proved to be no detriment whatever to
Wilkes-Barre and what was left of old
Luzerne. and 1t was an incalculable
benefit to the people of Scranton and
Lackawanna county. The erection of
Quay county would prove equally bene-
fetal to the people of the lower end
and would not injuriously affect
Wilkes-Barre and what remained of
Luzerne. Yes, we shall keep up this
battle for a new county at every ses-
sion of the legislature until we are sue
cessful. The interests of the people of
the lower end must be considered and
some day we will have a legislature
composed of men who will be swayed
by the spirit of justice"
The people of Wilkes-Barre naturally
take different view of the matter and
will battle valiantIy against any fur
ther dismemberment of the county of
whose grand proportions, great wealth
and large population they are so proud.
The people of Hazeton cherish the
idea that the erection of the proposed
new county would give the town a
tremendous boom and that it would
speedily develop into a second city of
Scranton.
One of yesterdays visitors from
Hazleton took a somewhat different
view of the situation of it. Said he:
IF the worst comes to the worst. I
shall be in favor of seeking annexation
to Carbon county. Carbon would be
glad enough to take us in, and if we
can't get away from Wilkes-Barre in
any other way shall favor annexation
to little Carbon, and perhaps we may
some day be able to remove the county
eeat from Mauch Chunk to Hazleton.
But for at least ten years more we
shall keep up the fight for a new
county.

bovine which stepped upon the track
In front of his moving train. The cow
was crushed under the wheels OF his

The train proceeded some distance be-
fore 1t could be stopped, destroying the

lower machinery Of the engine was
badly damaged. Very luckily, none Of

Brief Notes of Interest.
There have been thirty-five admis-
sions at the hospital the past month.
Rev. Samuel Y. Baton, of New York
city, who received a call from the Lu-
zerne Baptist church, has declined to
accept the favor Of the West Side peo-
pie, as he had previously accepted the
charge as pastorate of the First Bap-
tist church at Morristown, N. J.
The West Side police have assumed a
new change of raiment. The recent
showers may have assisted in the mat
ter, as it has the spring clothing of the
trees and lawns. Be that as It may, the
officers of the West Side are careful,
consistent men, and vigilent In attend
