WANT THAT SLICE.
Claim That the Lackawanna County Line
Is Wrong.


Is Wrong.
The enterprising Evening Times has
made the discovery that under the re-
cent decision of Attorney General Nc
Cormick, Lackawanna must surrender
a slice of territory a mile and half
wide to Luzerne. 1t Is claimed that
when Lackawanna was created the line
was run within ten miles of the court
house at Wilkes-Barre, whereas, under
the decision of the attorney general the
measurement must be ten miles from
the city line. AS the city line on the
north is about a mile and half from
took a strip of territory that width too
much, and the Luzerne commissioners
are urged to proceed at once to re-
cover this excess. The Times says this
strip includes the upper end of Avoca,
known as Stark's. Moosic, and portion
of Old Forge, containing much valu-
able. taxable property, .and about 5000
inhabitants.
The Luzerne commissioners will be In
no haste to inaugurate proceedings in
this matter, and Lackawanna would
certainly resist any attempt to deprive
her Of any of her territory. However,
the question raised 10 one of some inter-
est and may lead to more or less di-
vertlng controversy The opinion of
the attorney general, by the way, is not
final on such matters. The courts must
eventually determine whether the Ian
guage Of the act of assembly means the
court house or the city wherein the
court house is located. There are peo-
pie in Wilkes-Barre who would take
back the whole of Lackawanna IL It
could be done.

LOCAL CONTRACTORS.
Why So Many of Them VIII Not Bid for
Contracts on the Court House.

CONlTuStS Oh tuc 'Ouit t,OusS.
Several of the oldest and largest
building contractors in Wilkas-Barre
have stated their reasons for not put
ting in bids for contracts on the pro-
posed new cour. house. They give
the same reasons that were advanced
in The Tribune several days ago, viz:
that it would be mere waste of time
to make estimates. Mr.. Shepherd says
that in a conversation with Architect
Myers he became convinced that it
would be useless for a Wilkes-Barre
contractor to bid. The time, too, is too
short for a contractor and sub-con-
tractor to make estimates, as the con-
veniences have not been supplied by
the architect and commissioners. Mr.
Shepherd gives the further reason for
not bidding because he does not believe
that the court house will ever be built
on the Myers plans.
I. T. Long, another large contractor,
says he will not bid because he could
not have a set of plans to work upon
The opinion prevails, whether right or
wrong, that foreign contractors, who
are friends or partners of the architect
were supplied with copies of the plans
weeks ago. and therefore have a great
advantage over those VINO are COM
PEELED to go to the court house and ex-
anime the plans there, with little op-
portunity and none of the necessary
conveniences for figuring ON estimates
II the contracts are ever awarded it Is
apparent they will go to firms at a. dis
tance by default of local competition.

SOMEBODY BLUNDERED.
Indignation Among the Grow County
Boomers at Shickshinny

Indignation Among tho Grow County
Boomers at Shickshinny.
The dicision of Attorney General Nc
Cormick In the Grow county matter did
not defeat the project, as some peo-
pie suppose. Whether the measure
were made from the court house of
from the city line, there were not near
ly enough square miles embraced in
the territory to meet the requirements
of the constitution. The commission
ers found the territory surveyed eigh-
ty-eight square miles short of the
requisite 400. Somebody had made q
serious mistake. 1t is possible to create
a new county out OF Luzerne without
encroaching within ten miles Of the old
county seat, but in order to do that
Halle, Foster and Dennison townships
must be included. The Grow county
boomers did not want to be incorper-
ated with the Hazleton region, and con-
sequently left out the three townships
named, supposing they had enough ter
ritory without them. What makes
the Shickshinnyftes so indignant Is that
they were dec eived in supposing they
had enough territory included in their
plan to satisfy the requirements of the
constitution. They might have added
few townships on the west and taken
|. their chances. Some of the disappoint-
ed Grow county boomers even claim
that a. shabby trick was played on
them by somebody, but they do not
know exactly where to locate the re-
sponsibillty. What they do know is
that their hopes for a new county have
perished and may never be revived.

MEMORIAL HALL,
An Effort to De Made to Raise Enough
Money. to Free It from Debt.

money 10 Free Ii from Debt.
several weeks ago The Tribune called
public attention to the fact that Me-
mortal hall, the home of Grand Arr
men IN this city, Is burdened with a debt
OF $4,000 that ought to be paid. An eff.
fort Will now he made to secure SUBJ
scriptions to the amount named. What
has already been paid on this splendid
nome of the local Grand Army men was
raised principally by private subscrip-
ton. and there is not much doubt that
If the work is pushed in a systematic
manner the balance required to wipe out
the burdensome Indebtedness can also
be raised, large as 1t is. 1t ought to be
possible to find at least FIVE men in
Wilkes-Barr willing to subscribe 81, 900
each, at least ten who will give $500
each and fifty who can contribute slOO
The remaining $1,000 could be easily
handled.
Memorial hall is the only monument
that has been reared in Wilkes-Ba
to the memory Of the dead soldiers, and
it is worthy one, but it should be
paid for. With few exceptions the
members of Conyngham are poor men,
and cannot contribute any considerable
amount. The Interest on the 500, 900 in
debtedness about consumes the ordin-
ary revenues of the post, and leaves lit
tie for current expenses, funerals of
poor members, etc. 1t is proposed to
have committees solicit subscriptions,
but not to collect any of the money
until the full sum has been pedged, then
to call on subscribers for the money.
1t will be happy day for the old sol
ders Of Conyngham post when the bur-
den they have been carrying is raised
from their shoulders.

MAYOR AND COUNCIL,
Two Antagonistic Elements in the City
Government.

Government.
There Is neither sense nor reason in
the antagonistic and non-co-operative
relations that exist between the mayor
and city council Of Wilkes-Barre. The
public interests and the public morality
suffer in consequence of this unneces-
sary warfare. Mayor Nichols is not
an unreasonable man. as all know who
are acquainted with him. In some
things he may be a tritle eccentric, but
no one doubts the sincerity of his eX.
pressed desire ITO lift the office of mayor
to something like the dignity that
should attach to that Office in a large
and important city like Wilkes-Barre.
The mayor ought to have more author
ity than Is conferred upon him Under
the present system, and council might,
with benefit to the interests of the mu-
nicipality. concede TO the mayor much
more than 1t has In any event the
council should heartily and gladly CO.
operate with the mayor in whatever he
undertakes for the welfare and good
repute of the city.
In the present controversy between
the mayor and the councilmen. growing
out of the crusade against vile houses.
the mayor is emphatically in the right
and council in the wrong. Public senti-
ment and sympathy are wholly with
the mayor Only the disreputable por-
tion of the community applaud the
stand the councilmen have taken. If
the mayor cannot command the sup
port and active assistance of the police
in his efforts to rid the city of crime
and vice. then the office of mayor might
as we'll be abolished. Some of Mayor
Nichols predecessors were content to
be a mere figure-head, content to sit
as a committing magistrate and pocket
the fees as salary. F. NJ. Nichols is not
that kind of man. He is ambitious to
make the city better than it was when
he came into office. He has many ex-
cellent ideas and gives them practical
application. He could and would ac-
complish much If he had the powers
welded by the mayor in other cities
of the same class in this state. The
concensus of opinion in Wilkes-Barre
today is that Mayor Nichols should
have a fair chance.
