Willie Wiggins and his chum. Tommy
Tompkins, were sitting together on the
curbing down the street the other day,
when Mrs. Wiggins came to the front
door and glanced up and down the
street as if looking for some one, says
the Ohio State Journal. Presently she
spied the object of her search and called
out:
willie, l want you"
She then reentered the house and
busted herself about her household du-
ties.
y minute later Mrs. Tompliina put
her head out of a window half a block
away and yelled at the top of her voice:
Tommy! You come home this very
minute!"
Both boys remained motionless.
Neither spoke word.
Five minutes passed away, when both
women again made their appearance a.
the same moment:
'Oh, Willie" called Mrs. Wiggins.
No answer.
"Tom-my!" shouted Mrs. Tompliins.

Unce Nat put on his spectacles, drew

the winding was finished Uncle Nat

FREELAND, SEPTEMBER 80, 1897.


From the Willlesbarre Leader.
There is every reason why every Demo-
crat in Pennsylvania should support the
Democratic state and county ticket this
fall. In the first place the candidates
are men who were not foiSted upon the
people. Such a condition of affairs is
happily, a thing of the past. The Demo
cratic party knows no boss at this time
in Pennsylvania. These men are
worthy of the support of every good
citizen who believes in wrestling from a
disgraced and shameless party the power
in state affairs it has betrayed.
The history of Pennsylvania tells us
of no more reckless and plundering body
than the legislature of 1897. 1t was
largely Republican. Ii was chosen for
specific purpOseS-that of clectng a
United States senator and moulding into
shape laws for the corporations That
the members fully justified the eXpecta-
tion Of Quay and the corporations he
favors no one can doubt. 1t is a record
that stands out alone in the history of
Pennsylvania legislatures.
The people know it; the Republican
party laughs about itand is not ashamed:
the Prohibtionists point to it as the
crime of the nineteenth century. But
what do the people who are to go to the
polls next November think about it?
The Office of state treasurer and audi
tor general are important Offices and
should be filed by worthy men.
Our county ticket is an admirable one;
every man upon it is eminently fitted
for the Office TO which he aspres: it
represents as far as possible location and
so-caled nationality; every man upon it
is fresh from the people. is not an office
holder bent upon perpetuating his pres
ent lease Of power, but actually stands
as representative of the people who are
disgusted with the idea of maintaining
an ollice-holder ariStocracy. The ticket
commends itself not only to the Demo
Gratis, but to every Independent citizen
and taxpayer who desires a more econ
omicaI administration Of affairs in this
country.

Dogs have been taught to smoke, but

daries smoke and are particularly fond

mony of many celebrated travellers in

on tobacco smoke for their control over
these animals than anything else.
When travelling on long journeys the
dromcdarics are in many cases required

John l.. sullivan's View of 1t.

From the New York journal.
John l.. Sullivan, now a powerful
factor in the politics of Boston, may not
possess that social polish necessary to
commend him to the voters of Beacon
Hill and Commonwealth avenue. but he
can think with his own head. That is
an advantage which not many men en-
Joy, in or out of the prize ring on Beacon
Hill or off it. Mr.. Sullivan has been
using his head to consider the state of
the union, and in today JouTUaI, through
Mr.. Alfred Henry Lewis, he communi-
Gates some Of the results of his medita-
tion.
1t will be seen that Mr.. Sullivan dis
proves Of the shooting Of the miners at
Lattimer by Sheriff Martin and his men,
and objects to the amount of bail on
which that rapd-fring official and his
deputies have been held to answer the
charge Of murder. Like all men who
have risen to eminence in his profession,
Mr.. Sullivan has "A profound respect for
the law, yet he holds to the sound
American doctrine that the law should
never play fayoritcs.
Speaking Of the Pennsylvania mas
sacre he puts this doctrine in his own
striking way: Turn it around. DO
you suppose the sheriff would have shot
into lot Of mine owners if they'd been
walkin' down the road? Not on your
necktie. An if the sucker did, would
he get off on So, 900 bail? 1t would be a
billion "
