JEFFERSON And THE LIQUOR
TRAFFIC.

Thomas Jefferson lived before the
idea of prohibition had been breach
ed, but he was in the van of those who
recognized the evils of the liquor traf
fic and the necessity of putting the
brakes on that traffic by means of law.
His way and the way of all the adj
vanced temperance advocates of that
it's sales would be greatly hampered
and the masses be saved from it's poi
sonous contamination.
In letter to Gen. Samuel Smith,
written by Jefferson in 1928, after
speaking of the tax on whiskey, and
saying that, if it were to be viewed
simply as a fiscal measure he would
be glad to see it fall, he goes on to
show that other than mere fiscal con-
siderations must enter it. Says Jeffer-
son: "But the prostration of body and
mind which the cheapness of this liq-
uor is spreading through the mass of
our people now calls the attention Of
the legislator to very different prin-
ciple, One of his important duties is
as guardian of those who from causes
susceptible of precise definition can
not take care of themselves. Such
are infants, gamblers, drunkards.
The last, as much as the maniac, re-
quire restrictive measures to save him
from the fatal infatuation under which
he is destroying his health, his morals,

ciety. One powerful obstacle to his
ruinous self-indulgence would be a
price beyond his competence. AS
sanitary measure, therefore, it be-
comes one Of duty in the public guar
dians.''
In other words, Thomas Jefferson
advocated the restriction of the liquor
traffic as a sanitary measure, The
Voice.

POLAYK IS RELEASED.
It Was Shown That He Was Not the
Murderer of Michael Kadzina
of Jessup.

The man arrested on suspicion of be-
ing Joseph Kolar, murderer of Michael
Kadzina, of Jessup, on June 10, 1885,
was given a hearing before Judge
Archibald in chambers yesterday and
il proved to be a case of mistaken
identity. The prisoner took off his
coat and barred his right forearm to ex-
hibit to the Judge his name, George
Polayk tattooed on with India ink.
and beneath the year, 1885, which was
the time he served in the Austrian
army.
Besides that evidence, d. r. Davis,
Of Jessup, the miner with whom kolar,
the murderer, worked for year prior
to the commission of the crime. tes-
tilted that the prisoner was not the
right man, nor nothing like him. ko-
lar is taller and thinner.
Constable Reese, who made the ar
rest, swore that he had been instructed
by County Detective Leyshon to
watch for Kolar. He knew the man
by sight, or at least thought he did,
and he went into Moyles' saloon the
night he made the arrest The priso-
ner was at the bar with some fellow
countrymen and was under the inllu-
ence of liquor.
Tho constable heard the companions
calling him Joe Kolar ard went over
and asked him his name. The priso-
ner answered him by inviting him to
take something. The question was re-
peated and then the prisoner began
acting in q suspicious manner The
constable invited him to take walk
down to the snuires office, but he re-
fused and resisted when an attempt
was made to bring him there. A by
stander was called on for assistance
and between them they had hard
time to bring him before Justice Of the
Peace Cannon. He kicked and squirin-
ed all the way.
Justice Cannon was sworn and tes'
titled that the man gave his name as
Joseph Kolar when brought before
him. There was a warrant charging
him with murder, and at the hearing
he was so abusive and violent tina,
| he would not give any account what
| ever of himself. He was not in propel
condition to do so, anyway, from
| drink.
Judge Archibald directed that tn
man be let go without costs. Assis
| tant District Attorney w. Gaylord
Thomas was present for the common
wealth and Attorney John NJ. Harri:
represented the prisoner.

GRAMMAR A PUPILS
FOR HIGH SCHOOL
NEW RULE FOR ADMISSION TO
THE ADVANCED BUILDING.
1t Was Considered at q Meeting of
the Teachers Committee and will
Be Reported to the Board-Conclu-
sion Reached Which overcomes an
Objection Feared on Account of a
Probable Lack of Uniformity in
Considering Monthly Grammar A
Averages.

At a meeting of the teachers COM
mittee of the board of control last
night an agreement was reached on a
proposed rule for admitting to the high
school pupils who failed to pass the
Grammar A examinations.
At the last meeting of the board Mr..
Jennings offered motion, which was
referred to the committee, providing
that pupils whose yearly averages and
final examinations showed the required
general average should be admitted to
the high school. 1t was apparent that
the proposition would not meet with
approval unless some steps were taken
to make future Grammar A examina-
tions uniform in the different classes.
1t was pointed out that some prin-
cipals marked high while others
marked low, and that the examinations
by some were written and by others
oral. without some rule to make the
examinations uniform it was apparent
that some pupils would be admitted to
the high school without being entitled
TO 1t, while others would not be ad-
mitted by reason of the disposition of
their principals to mark low.
The matter was Strengthened out in
accorded Superintendent of Schools
Howell and Mr.. Jennings. whose mo-
ton opened the controversy. 1t was
decided to recommend to the board a
rule that admission to the high school
should be granted on the general aver
age of monthly averages and final ex-
aminations, but that the examination
questions should be uniform through
out the city and upon questions pre-
| pared by Superintendent Howell. The
markings by the principals are also to
be submitted to Superintendent Howell
| for verification. All this will be sub
initted to next Monday nights regular
| meeting Of the board.
1t is estimated that 1000 pupils will
| fill the capacity of the high school
| That would accommodate $50 pupils in
each of the four classes. According to
! the result of the recent Grammar A
| examinations 1S4 pupils will enter the
high school from that grade. From
| the permits and second examinations
| of pupils and the examinations OF
| pupils from private schools fifty addi-
| tional pupils will be admitted, total
of 234, or only sixteen less than the

MANGAN BEAT HIS CHILD
Alderman Kelly Tried to Arrest Him
But He Did Not Succeed.

NJ. j. Mangan, Of 334 Third street,
called at The Tribune Office last night
and gave out a statement of an oc-
currence he alleges took place at his
home at . o'clock yesterday morn
ing. His 5-year-old son, he said. was
out on the street running after wagons
and he thought it was his duty to dis
cipline the youngster, which he did H.
a mild kind of way. But the scream
ing of the boy might be taken as 4
sign that he was being misused.
While the chastisement was in pro-
gress, Alderman Kelly, of the EiGh-
teenth ward, happened along in a
buggy accompanied by Special officer
Niewan, an official of the same court
Kelly went into Mangan's house and
proceeded to arrest him for beating the
child. A scufiie ensued Mangan is
a stone mason and of wrought iron
make up. The alderman is by no
means lacking in muscle. In the melee
the stove was upset, and hot Goals
came out on the floor.
Mangan scampered upstairs to his
bedroom for a revolver and when he
oame down the alderman was gone.
Mangan intends to have the Squire
arrested today, he says.

in Switzerland and is SO years old; she
was born in Phoenix, n. Y, forty
three years ago, and her maiden name
was Greenbush.
A week or so ago Urweider came to
Mrs. Duggan for her good offices in
securing him a wife. He was willing
to make big concessions. All he want
ed was that she be good cook and a
fair housekeeper. He made no pro-
visos about her disposition. because he
had confidence in his ability to keep
her in an amiable frame of mind. His
desire was given considerable adver-
tising, and on Wednesday Mrs. Dug
She thought she would fill the void.

SCRANTON NEXT YEAR.
Mail Carriers Will Bring the Big
Convention of 1899 to This Citv.

Unless all signs fail the 1899 national
convention of the letter carriers of the
United States will be held in this city,
Since the more general introduction Of
the free delivery system in different
cities the position of mailcarrier has
had added Importance.
He is now as much of factor in the
daily life of every citizen as the baker
and is met with at different times dur
ing the day as the direct medium be-
tween friends and the business public.
1t will require funds to conduct the
preliminary and other work in secur-
ing the presence of, the convention here
next year. If 1t is secured a fund must
be made available for use in caring for
the delegates.
All this the carriers have in mind
and to provide a portion of the neces-
sary funds a picnic will be conducted
under the auspices of the Scranton
branch in Laurel Hill Park next Tues
day. The interest of the carriers in
this instance is the interest of the city
and all should assist in making the
picnic a success.
