COMPLAINTS are frequently heard that
the big department stores are catching the
bulk of trade, while the smaller dealers
suffer. If that be true, there must be some
reason for it. Business success is not a matter
of chance. The best methods bring the
best results. Study the method of these big
stores Where can you find one of them that
does not stand among the leading advertisers
of the community? The judicious use of
printers ink has been one of the most potent
factors in the development of the big stores
of to-day. Their managers have caught the
secret of success-getting in touch with the
purchasing public.

THE nnvRRNoR,s DECISION.

1t will be found, by reference to our news
columns that Messrs. Lawlor and Cardin, Of
town, aud Jones and Coyle, Of Mahanoy City.
will receive their commissions as Justices Of
the Peace. The Governor made an official
announcement to this effect yesterday, and
AS a natural and legal result it is claimed
Squires Dengler and Bierstcin, who were re-
elected ON February 18th last, will not re-
.ceive their commissions.
The decision of the Attorney General and
the action of the Governor in the matter will
no doubt bring on a long legal battle, as to
the outcome of which many legal minds
differ.
If iSquires Dengler and Berstein are not
legally entitled TO the Office to which they
have been elected, the question naturally
arises, are not the eight other Justices of the
town holding their commissions, illegally {?
The same law is applicable to both cases, 1t
is true they hold their commissions which
win neeessitate legal action to deprive them
of their Office.
This view of the case is taken, of course,
with the und derstanding that the law Of 1878
is applicable TO the two boroughs in question.
The action Of the Goyernorap appears to confirm
this belief,
The outcome of the controversy viii be
awaited with much interest, both by the
parties Immediately interested and the peopl,
in general. Those holding commissions viii
hardly give up without a struggle business
that has required years to build up and thl
new Borough Justices will naturally be jus
as eager to fight for that which they claim
they are legally entitled TO-
We have had no occasion to change on
views as regards the manner in which tn
election of the borough Justices was effected
The Senator from this district stands in tn
same unenviable light before the people q
he did previous to the decision Of GoyernC
Hastings, and they will resent the actio
gyheneyer the opportunity presents itself.

and capture her The sailors succeeded in
beating off the attack. There is a report
that Maxine Gomez is completely be-
sieged by the troops Maceo, Gomez and
Lacret are all supposed, according to the
official reports here, to be in desperate
situation. A letter has been seen from
Antonio Maceo complaining that he is
short of ammunition
Generals Prats and Arolas report that
they fought the force of Maxine Gomez
yesterday at Hanabano, on the borders of
Matanzas province including the band of
Lacret and others. These forces, the of
fetal report says, were routed, and the in
surgent leader Castillo was wounded seri-
ously in the head and abdomen.
Captain General Weyler has taken meas
ures to protect the American consulate in
this city, though with great discretion he
has done so without calling attention to
the fact. This was done through abun-
dant caution, though no demonstration
was feared against the consulate.

Garcia, who was arrested in New York in

Holmes Cannot Escape the Moose.

PHILADELPHIA, March 5.-The supreme
court, in an opinion delivered by Justice
Williams, overrules all the assignments
of error in the case of Holmes, and affirms
the Judgment of the court. This action
shuts H. H. Mudgett, alias Holmes, COM
pletely out from the world and the next
step taken will be that of imposing sem
tence of death by the court in which he
was convicted of murder in the first de-
gree. But one hope is left the prisoner,
and that is the board of pardons, and that
hope is so faint that Holmes will probably
never give it a thought.

German Sarcnsm.

BERLIN, March 5-The Kolnische Zeit-
ung has an article which is believed to
represent the views of the government on
the subject of the United States attitude
toward Cuba, and which treats neither the
United States or Spain with leniency. 1t
taunts the Americans with concealing
their schemes of conquest under the mask
of humanitarian sentiments, though it
adds 1t is not their custom to clothe their
ambitious designs in diplomatic form. 1t
warns the Spaniards against giving violent
expression to their national feeling, as
they did in the Caroline islands dispute,
because they have now to deal with a much
less indulgent adversary than Germany.

losses sustained are coming in, and from
those received it is apparent that the total

men and women through suspension of
manufacturing and other industries. Six
lives have been lost. The main financial

In Massachusetts $3.50, 900 will probably

There is no knowing where the trouble will

rule, the exceptions are terribly frequent,

BALTIMoRE's MUNICIPAL WAR
Mayor Hooper's Opposition Unable
Override His Vetoes.

Override His Yetoess +
BALTIMORE, March g. Mayor Hoop
scored first blood last night in his flgl-
with councils over the municipal Offices,
but the battle is still ON, and the result Is
uncertain. The mayor sent in message,
vetoing the ordinances passed by councils
n week ago, depriving him of the appoint
ing power, and councils, instead of pass
ing the measures over the veto, as they
claimed to be able to do, postponed action
until future date
This is taken as a tacit admission that
the leaders of the opposition have not
enough votes to carry out the proposed
program, and that they have not been able
to secure the expected aid from the Demo
Gratis in councils. Before adiourning, how
ever, councils took up and rejected the
nomination of DIR. J. Il. McShane to be
health officer and of DR. Sydney o. Heis-
kell to be quarantine officer. Both are
Democrats, and the mayor will be com
PEELED to take further action in these cases,
which have been the source of contention.
The Bruce bill to give the mayor the
right to make appointments without con-
tirmation by councils, which passed the
state senate on Tuesday by Democratic
votes; was practically killed in the lower
house at Annapolis yesterday by the ac-
tion of the committee in indefinitely post
poning its consideration. 1t begins TO
look like protracted deadlock. by which
the Democrats holding municipal offices
will profit as they stay in until their sue
cessors are appointed.
