The New Deal Popular

One by one the Republican news
papers of the county are falling into
line in the demand for new party
leaders. The latest to come to the
assistance of the HERALD-which in
augurated the movement for new
deal in Republican politics-is the
Tamaqua Courier. In an editorial on
this subject, in its issue of Tuesday,
our contemporary makes a strong de-
mand for the retirement of the men
who have on several occasions shown
their incapacity as leaders. The
Courier says
''It is a source of the utmost salts
faction TO learn that the old leaders
of the Republican party in Schuylkin
county are to be deposed and that in
their stead will be installed new men,
stalwart, powerful, confidence in
spring men who, it is claimed, pos
sess the power to lead the party, in
solid phalanx, on to victory.
''It seems to be a perennial failing
with certain well-disposed county
politicians to announce that the party
is to be infused with new blood, in
the shape of new leaders. The an
nouncement invariably creates little
furry, then passes away leaving the
same old leaders in power. The latter
gentlemen generally have one last
trick up their sleeve that lands them
a winner. They have contaminated
and polluted the party for some
years, but they have profited well,
and that is all important.
There is something enigmatical
about these same leaders. just as the
astute political reformers are sure
that they are safely inferred in the
political sepulcher they are resur
rected, again take control and rur
the party up against the rocks. De
feat does not discourage them. They
seem to take a fiendish delight il
wrecking the ambitions of the party
and at each convention are on hand
with their corrupt influence. Theil
control Of a convention is the har
binger Of the defeat Of the ticket
named. The sign is infallibIe.
I'VE hope the Republican party IL
schuylkilI county is to have new
leaders. II it does not the future o.
the party is dark and gloomy"

Frankfort, Ky, Dec. THE flood
gates of oratory were opened promptly
when the election commissioners took
their seats yesterday, and it rolled on
for hours, with a brief intermission at
noon. The Republican speeches were
longer and more elaborate than those
of the Democrats, who were apparently
saving as much as possible of their
time for Judge Hargis, of Louisville,
who today makes the great argument
for Goebel The arguments were car
ried on during the day in the greatest
possible harmony.

cannon against the British rifemen, who
nevertheless maintained a stout resistance.

SUIT AGAINST MARCONI
Larned Would Restrain Him from OPP
Grating Wireless Telegraphy

New York, October 1s.-Lydnan c. Larned,
of Boston, has brought suit in the United
States circuit court against Guglielmo Mar
conf to restrain him and his agents from
using the system of wireless telegraphy
which Larned claims is an infringement of
patent now controlled by him.
The plaintiff in his complaint alleges that
the original inventor of this system of
telegraphy was Amos Emerson Dolbear,
and patented by him october 8, 1886, under
assignment to the Dolbear Electric Tele-
phone company. These rights We're trans
ferred to Larned on the 22d of July last.
Larned alleges that the means described
in the patent under which Marconi purports
to carry on his system can be used for such
work and are not adapted for commercial
use
Larned asks damages in the sum of $780,
900 and an injunction restraining Marconi
from using the alleged infringing system

NO NEWS FROM MAFEKING
Believed That Colonel Baden Powell is
Safe

London, October 19.-There Is still no
authoritative news from Mafeking, but all
reports tend to confirm the belief that
Colonel Baden Powell is holding his own
and no credit Is given to the vague rumors
Rhat a flag of truce has been displayed.
A considerable engagement Is anticipated
In the vicinity of Ladysmith today. The
combined advance of Beers and Free State
Aroops in this direction has been executed
with not inconsiderable skill and shows
clear appreciation of the British position.
General Sir George Stewart has $4,000 men
and forty-six guns available, besides con-
siderable force of volunteers to hold Lady
kmith and no anxiety is felt on his account,
for, the Natal country where the engage
ment is expected is fairly open, and al
nhought the work of moving them will be
difficult, the guns are likely to do good
work.
The country Is not favorable for Boer
factics and 1t will be very difhcult Tor

already occupying useful positions, that IS,

RACE WAR SEEMS
TO Be IMMINENT
Forty Well Armed White Men
Leave Decatur for Scene
of Trouble.

Decatur, Ala, October 1s.-At this hour,
nent in East Decatur, suburb Of New De-
catur, and about one mile frons Gown. For
ty men armed with Winchesters and guns,
have just left here for the scene, and
trouble is expected momentarily.
The trouble arose over the whipping of a
negro woman by a white man, Charles
James, steamboat engineer. The negro
woman had abused and insuted James
wife by applying epithets to her. This oc-
Cured yesterday afternoon. When James
came home he learned of the affair, and,
going to the woman's house. asked her If
she was the one who abused his wife. The
piled yes. James then proceeded to wear
out an umbrella rod on the woman, and
struck her several times with his fist.
Shortly after, the woman's brother went
told her husband of what James had done.
The two men made up a mob and plotted
to attack James when he went on board his
steamer. They were foiled in this, but to-
night waylaid James and attacked him.
James fired several shots which were re-
turned. Officer Blackburn went out to the
scene and attempted with James to arrest
the negroes but was fiercely resisted, sew
eral shots being exchanged. None of the
white men were hurt, but it Is thought sew
eral negroes were wounded. AS quickly as
possible the officer returned to town and a
posse was organized and went out, deter
mined to take the negroes dead or alive.
