A HEAVY SENTENCE.
Hendricks Receives Twenty Years in II

Hendricks Receives Twenty Years In the
pcnitcntiary-Other Sentences.
Judge Woodward yesterday called up
James Hendricks, convicted of murder
in the second degree, and sentenced
him to twenty years solitary confine-
ment at labor In the eastern peniten-
tiary. The Judge gave the prisoner the
maximum sentence, which Of itself
proves that In the opinion of the court
he should have been convicted of mur-
der in the first degree, an opinion that
prevails very generally. James Hen
bricks rejoiced and received the hearty
congratulations Of his relatives when
the Jury brought In verdict Of murder
in the second degree. Yesterday there
was no rejoicing when, after earnest
pleas by his counsel for mercy, Judge
Woodward gave him the full sentence
the law permits. If Hendricks lives he
will be released in 1916, but even then
he will be only in middle life, for he is
now young man. The public heartily
commends Judge Woodward for what
he has done. He made no remarks be-
fore sentencing the prisoner, except to
say that he refrained because three
others were to be tried for the same
crime.
Judge Lynch sentenced Jack Savage,
boy 10 years old, to one year and five
months in the penitentiary for burglary,
and Mike Yansick to three months in
the county Jail for rape on child.
Judge Lynch said he had doubt of the
latter's guilt, and for that reason made
the sentence as light as he could.

THE MAYORS HANDS TIED.
A Remarkable Statement Made by Mayor
Nichols.

Remarkable Statement Made by Mayor
Nichols.
Yesterdays Record contained state
ment made by Mayor Nichols to rep
resentative of that paper, that cannot
fail to command the most serious at
tention of the people of this city. The
operations and methods of Mayor
Nichols in his crusade against the more
prominent and notorious bawdy houses
have been fully detailed in these col
umns. Under the peculiar charter of
Wilkes-Barre the mayor has little con-
troll Of the police force, the chief and
his subordinates being subject to the
orders of the police committee or coun-
ellis. Mayor Nichols alleges that in his
efforts to abolish one of the worst evils
in the city he has not had the co-opera-
tion Of the police. but, on the contrary.
has been compelled to encounter the
active opposition Of that body. acting
under the direction of the police COM
mittee of council. This is very Sc
rious allegation, and one which cannot
be ignored.
It is not conceivable that there is a
single member of city councils who
which Mayor Nichols has been waging
war against, and yet, If the mayor is
correctly reported by the Record, he
certainly charges that very offense
against certain councilmen. Under the
operations of the city charter the mayor
and police force seem to be entirely di-
yorced in their official relations. The
mayor can neither appoint nor dis
charge policeman. The officers must
stand in with the police committee of
councils or they are in danger of losing
their heads. Such a system Is radically
and fatally wrong. The mayor is help
less, however anxious he may be to re-
form evils. If the mayor desires to spot
a suspicious house, or requires informa-
tion as to its character, he cannot use
the police, but must engage private de-
tectives at his own expense. Such
condition of things and such system
are a disgrace to a city like Wilkes
Barre. The mayor says: Some coun-
cilmen will neither permit the officers
to report these houses nor aid me in
any way in the matter" Mayor
Nichols Is naturally restive and indig-
nant when he finds himself hampered
and interferred with by officials who
ought to stand in with him in his every
effort to reform a great and crying
evil. A less plucky man would give up
the battle in disgust Public senti-
ment is with him, and it is believed
q fund could be raised to be used by
him in the prosecution of his campaign
If he is denied aid by council

To Make an Investigation.

Deputy Coroner Perkins went to Nanti-

was adjourned until this afternoon
when the physicians who made the au-

POLITICAL POINTS.

The News-Dealer somewhat pointed
| ly intimates that County Commission
ers Smith and Norton have made 1t i'm
possible for the Republicans to elect a
| majority OF the next board of commits
sioners. The two commissioners named
| have probably made their own re-elec-
| ton next year impossible, but as neither
of them can be re-nominated they will
| not be an issue. AS to which party
will control the next board OF COM
missioners will depend entirely upon the
kind of men nominated. Whichever
party names the best men that party
will inevitably win. The Republican
party of Luzerne will not be held re-
sponsible for the acts of the majority
commissioners now in office. The party
has not sanctioned nor endorsed any
of their acts in the new court house
business, nor will 1t do so. On the con-
trary. II the next county convention
shall be true to the party 1t will in the
platform. denounce and disavow the
court house jobbery.
Postmaster Landmesser has q little
less than one year to serve of his four
yt1is lcIIil. ne mas Dctr1 Sucn un au-
mirable official that he will not be likely
to be disturbed until his four years
have expired. But the several aspir-
ants for his place are not going to walt
any longer than they must. Some of
them are getting the machinery into
working order and making themselves
solid with the bosses. Isaac Living
stone. one of the old Democratic war;
horses. is being urged by his friends to
enter the contest, and he will be heard
from when the time for action comes.
Colonel Boyd. of the News Dealer, has
been suggested as one of the delegates
to the National Democratic convention
in 1896. He is for Hill for president. and
doesn't care continental who knows II.
Harry Carkhuff hopes to be the next
sheriff of Luzerne county. but there are
dozen other equally hopeful Republl-
cans.
The Democrats of Luzerne, in their
local campaigns, will hereafter sadly
miss the liberal contributions of Eckley
B. Coke. He came to the rescue more
than once when the finances ran low in
the heat of campaign.
