all kinds of meats will be higher
this summer than they have been
for ten years past. 1t is not prob-
able that much relief will come be-
fore next fall. Prices have already
advanced about rs per cent, aud an
additional advance in about the same
proportion is almost certain. While
the prime cause of the advance is
the scarcity of choice beef cattle, all
kinds of meats have gone up, partly
through speculative sentiment and
partly on account of the increased
demand.

Frank Middendorf, tax aollectoi
Of Cherry township, while attending
to the duties of his Office Monday
visited the home of the Russell fam
lily in Bernice. At this visit he was
told by the women folks of the house
that their husbands were not in and
requested him to call the following
evening. This he did and was met
by three men, viz: Peter Russell,
August Russell and James Blair all
Scotch descent and miners by trade.
On entering the house he was asked
by one of the Russells if he was
the tax collector who visited their
home the day before, and he replied
that he was. They said they would
not pay any tax and quarrelled for
some little time. Middendorf ex-
planned to them that the tax was for
county and township purposes and
that he as tax collector was obliged
to collect it and that lie proposed
doing so. This enraged the delin-
quents and they followed him to the
road where all three pounced upon
him and gave him II fearful beating.
He was struck to the ground, wo
teeth were knocked or kicked Oh,
his jaw-bone fractured and both
eyes blackened, Mr.. Middcndorf
swore out warrant before John
Lawrence, j. p. Of Dushore, and The
case was heard Wednesday morning.
They were bound over to court and
failed to furnish the required bail,
hence were brought to Laporte by

nice, on Wednesday noon and now

llarrity Men Win.

SCRANTON, March 3l,-A meet-
ing of the Democratic County Cons
mittce held last evening at the rooms
of the Central Democratic Club, de-
veloped a warm factional fight.
Thirty-one out OF the thirty-three
members of the committee attended.
This meeting was the local feature
of the war between Harrity and Kerr
and Harrity gained pronounced
victory.
The Kerr interests were represent
ed by John j, O'Boyle and, of course,
ex.shcriff Charles Robinson headed
the Harrity Faction. Hon. John E.
Roche was in the chair and offered q
resolution indorsing Judge Smith as
candidate for the Democratic nom>
ination for Judge Of the Superior
Court. This resolution instructed
the delegates that were to be chosen
for the next meeting for the next
Democratic State Convention to use
every honorable means to secure
Judge Smiths nomination. The
resolution was adopted.
Then the Harrity-Kerr fight came
on. Mr.. O'Boyle had sharpened his
knife for Mr.. Harrity because the
ex~secretary of State was held re-
sponsible for the appointment of F.
NJ. Vandling as postmaster of this
city. Charles Robinson is the press
ent member of the Democratic State
Committee and the Harrity force
asked that he succeed himself. The
vote was nineteen for Robinson and
nine for O'Boyle. Several members
of the committee present found
themselves in delicate position and
refused to vote owing to the bitter
feeling shown.

Working Day Test.

A piece of valuable testimony as
to the expediency Of an eight>hour
working>day is furnished by an ex-
pertinent which has been going on
in British manufacturing establish
mert. In 1889 the workday was ~
hours long. Then the change was
made directly to an eight hour day,
and for five years the effect has been
carefully observed. The managers
find that they get as much work
done in the s hours as they did in
the IL. Greater regularity, increas-
cd application and improved health
are noticed among the men. Drunk
enness is much rarer than formerly.
"Then men come down to their shifts
regularly, and they come sober"
says one of the managers. "The
improvements in the mems looks,
and especially in their gait when
leaving the work at the end of the
shift, is very marked" The estab-
lishment is that Of Drummer, Mond
& Co., well known throughout Eng
land. The experiment is in every
respect reliable one. 1t is hun
dred times more conclusive than
speculation upon what might be the
result of an eight-hour day.
The Hon. James Kerr, who is now
contending with National Chairman
Harrity for the control of the DEM
ocratic State Committee, has been in
New York reporting that there is
crisis in this State. This must have
been suspected for some time by
those who have kept up with the
daily bulletins and interviews issued
by Mr.. Kerr on one side and Mr..
Harrity on the other, but Mr.. Kerr's
announcement gives the crisis an
official stamp which it could not be-
fore boast. We presume Mr.. Har-
rity likewise regards it as crisis,
although he has never made any au-
thoritive statement on the subject.
The people of Pennsylvania have
always tried TO avoid these peaca>
disturbing and dangerous conditions,
but when couple Of Democrats get
into row as to which shall boss the
various fag ends Of the party still
able to be around everything else
has to give way. The consoling
thing about Mr.. Kerr's crisis is it
can't last long. The party is about
swamped.
