WAITS BIG BLUFF.
with One Of His own Tellers He Claim,
to be Counted Out.

As was to have been expected, Messrs.
Coyle aud Wyatt, the defeated candidates for
state delegates are putting up big bluff
The former gives it out that corporations
were instrumental in encompassiDg his de-
feat, while tho facts in the case are that
Coyle and his colleague received more votes
from those delegates under the employ Of
corporations than did their opponents. This
does away with that claim.
This mornings Philadelphia Press con
tanned the following despatch from Harris
burg:
Senator Coyle and sergeant-at-Arms
Wyatt, of the House, were here to-day to see
State Treasurer Haywood in reference TO
settling Mr. Wyatts little legislative account.
Both of these gentlemen wore defeated for
delegates to the Republican state convention
from the First Schuylkill District and
Wyatt says he is going to make contest. He
claims to have been elected by one andsOne-
half votes and that he has the sworn state
ments of all the delegates who voted for
him. He intended to lay his case before
State Chairman Elkin to-day, but the latter
was not here"
This is a clear case Of bluff, and when the
proper time comes will be so proven. The
chairman of the convention and one of the
tellers were both Wyatt supporters, and it is
was counted out. Coyles own paper gave
Wyatt but 3sl votes, and in their published
table credited Musser, the delegate from
Mahanoy City who voted for Brill and
Straughn, with but one vote whereas his
colleague from the same ward who voted for
Wyatt and Coyle, is given credit with two
votes.
William Clifford was strong Coyle and
WYATT suDnorter and voted for botb ITa
was one of the telers, and Coyle insisted
upon another vote. II guess not replied
Clifford, 'the count is right, and there will
be no second vote by my consent am will
ing to swear to the correctness of the count"
Both tellers agreed in their count, and the
chairman was satisfied they were right
Their count was cOrroborated by others who
kept tally Furthermore, one delegate who
voted for Straughu was recorded for Wyatt.
If the latter wants contest we are positive
he will find that he is credited with more
votes than he actually received By all
means let the contest proceed

As there has been much discussion d.
even IN Lake ounty on the comparative
cost Of coal and corn for fuel at the pre-.
vaiing prices Of both this winter, We
herewith quote the official tests Of the
State Experiment Station OF Nebraska:
The data obtained by these expert
NETS are worthy the serious consldera-
ton Of the people Of the southern part OF
couth Dakota. where corn is selling at
from 5 to 10 cents per bushel. The tests
show that one pound OF coal evaporated
10 times as much water as one pound OF
corn. In other words, 10 times as much
heat was as liberated in burning OF 9
pound OF corn.
Tha following table shows how much
coel is worth per ton, when its heating
power Is the same as that used 10 the
experiment, and when corn is selling at
