POLITICAL PlCKUPS.

The name of DR.. Joseph F. Gallagher
was used as vice president of the Repub-
lican meeting on Friday night without
authority. The young man, like several
others whose names were read as of
licers, does not believe in the gold stand
ard, and, apart from this, the using of
his name, considering his recent be-
reavement, showed lack OF the fitness
of things which deserves censure. A
cause that must be bolstered up in such
IL manner is unworthy of common res
pect.
While the Republican speakers were
Grating on Friday evening an ex-mem-
ber of that party, IA prominent peda-
gogue by the way, took advantage of
the listlcssness of the crowd and dis
tributed IL number of Bryan and Watson
pamphlets among the voters in the
lower end of the hall.
Chairman Freas, of the Democratic
county committee, has appointed Frank
p. Slattery as assistant chairman to look
after the fourth district. Mr.. Slattery
on Saturday began his duties. Rush
Trescott and John f. O'Neil will assist

The latest POLITICAL organization in
town is the Mckinley and Hobart Hun
garian Club, which is ollicered as fol-
lows: President, John EIudak: vice
president, John Zap; secretary, John
Csaiko: treasurer, Andrew lludak.
Three of Freeland's political birds of
ltprey were sorcly disappointed on Friday
evening because of their failure to con-
meet with Mr.. Williams after the Rcpub-
lican meeting. 1t was not their fault
that he was not "touched.n
More than one of those whose names
were announced as vice presidents on
| Friday evening were absent, and one in
particular spent the evening spreading
the Bryan gospel among the voters in
another part of town.

The Republicans held a meeting at
Yannes' opera house on Friday evening.
District Chairman Fred Hooking, of
Hazleton, and II. NJ. Allen and j. b,
Carr, ESQ, of Philadelphia, were the
speakers. A large audience, of which
more than one-third were Democrats,
attended the meeting. The addresses
delivered were disappointing to all,
Democrats and Republicans alike, and,
to express the result as mildly as posSi-
BILE, the rally was nat failure.
At no time during the evening did any
of the speakers produce an enthusiastic
feeling in the audience, and Il few feeble
handclaps given occasionally marked
the height of the applause. This was
strikingly shown at the close, when Mr..
Hooking proposed three cheers for the
ticket, and was greeted with less than Il
dozen "hurrahs, ," so few indeed that the
entire audience laughed outright at the
exhibition.
OF the speeches, if such they deserve
to be termed, the TRIBUNE will draw
over them the mantle of charity. They
were, without doubt, the most uninter-
esting belabored talks that the town has
ever heard in the line of politics.
Candidates Williams, Scott Robinson,
Kuntz, Hay, Jones and Powell were
present, but none of them had word to
say to the audience. Their forte does
not lie in discussion of the issues.

l the WiIkesbarre Lender.

Tuesday night the Republicans held a
meeting at Shckshinny. The spellbind-
ers were MIR. Colborne, of Scranton:
Ralph Wadhams, of Wlkesbarre, and
James Turner, citizen of the world.
They were also accompanied by Morgan
B. Williams, candidate for congress, who
did not speak. The meeting was held
in barn connected with Simpsons ho-
tel. The building is erected over creek
whose inilamed and angry waters rush
ing underneath and swollen by the
equinoctial storms, drowned the voices
Of the speakers. BY actual count there
were present fifty Republicans, three
leaders, forty girls and fifteen boys.
After the meeting was over the band
was secured by some prominent Demo
Gratis and an impronptu Democratic
parade formed. This parade included
25O Democratic voters among whom was
number of miners returning from work
with their mining lamps upon their
heads. No children or minors were al
lowed in line, but the crowd paraded the
town hurrahing for Bryan and Sewall.
1t was the biggest political parade seen
in Shickshinny since the Plumed
knights paraded in the Blaine cam
paign. 1t shows Shickshinny is for
Bryan and Sewall.
