TAYLOR VS.. POOR TRUSTEES.


a severe pain and tho extinguishment
OF the sight. The claim is that o block
of wood which he had used TO shift the
belt from the loose TO the tight pulley
had dropped, the machine stopping.
The plaintiff contends that the saw
should have been provided with lever
for shifting the belt and that with such
lever the accident would not have
occurred. McAleer said that Richard
Patzowski, the manager, told him to
do what Ward told him TO do. II is
alleged that the shaking OK the machine
contributed to the accident McAleer
Said he did not know the danger, nor
that there was guard to keep tho
splinters from striking the operator.
Tho guard was not in place at the
time. Before the accident witness said
he made as high as s25 week. He
has since been discharged, and is with
out work and his two children are a
public charge.
DIR. Read j. Mckay, the oculist,
testified to examining McAleer's eye
and finding the sight destroyed. BY
means of a skull he illustrated his
testimony, which was interesting. He
said that McAleer will never see out OF
the right eye.
Tuesday afternoons session OF the
Superior Court was devoted to taking
evidence in the case Of Charles F. Nc
Aleer VS.. F. Blumenthal & Co., Nc
Aleer suing for sl5, 600 damages for the
loss Of the sight of his right eye, the
eye having been put out by splinter
from circular saw. The plaintiff, who
had been examined in the morning, wa:
cross-examined.
George Sellers, Jr., testified that he
was acquainted with the circular saw
and had run it. He explained tins
method Of starting it was by shifting
the belt from the loose to the tigh
pulley with block. and block is alsc
used TO stop the machine by shifting
the belt back. This block was an!
piece of wood the operator might picl
up. He had known this block to sliI
on several persons. When the witness
| operated the machine, he did it at hi
own risk. He had seen McAleer at tn
| saw several times. 1t was advisable
to have two men at the saw, but wit
ness had always operated it alone. MIR
Sellers said that the machine in cour
had a stopping arrangement and |
| guard, which were not on it at tn,
time Of the accident. He also though
the table Of the saw at the time Of tn
accident was wider than that of tn
one in court.

THE EMPLOYMENT OF TaAMpS.

Dover, Feb. 22.-As the subject OF
workhouse, or, in other words, some
provision made for tho hordes of
tramps that infcst this State, is being
discussed a. mach length, the people
of Dover are seriously considering the
question as it concerns their town. mere
especially in the summer time.
Ii may not be generally known that
there is now upon the statute books OF
this State, a law whereby these Iucn,
as soon as they make their appearance
in any town or city. may be arrested
and compelled to work on the streets.
The following law, passed at the
session of tho Legislature in 1873.
known as tho 'tFulton Law" is APP
plicabic TO the tramp question:
Section l. Any person without a
home, in the town or hundred in which
he may be found wandering about
without employment, and the regular
and visible mems Of living, shall be
deemed and taken to be tramp, and
shall be dealt with accordingly.
Sec. 2. 1t shall be the duty OF the
corporate officers of every city and
town in this State to cause ever.
tramp, found within the limits OF
such town. to he Immediately arrested
and put TO work on the streets, or
other public WORKS thereof, or to hire
out such tramps to private persons,
and for this purpose SAID officers may
employ such oyerseers as may be neces-
sary.
Sec. 3. When such tramps are worked
on the streets, or public works, they
shall be provided with reasonable food
and lodging by said officers, at the ex-
| pense of the city or town, and shall be
| allowed such wages as the said officers
shall deem reasonable, to be paid them
\ at the end of their term of employ
ment. But before any wages shall be
paid them, Just deduction shall be
made from the gross sum for whatever
board, lodging or medicine they have
been furnished, respectively, and alsc
their just proportion Of whatever ma.

work when an overseer has been en-
ployed. The said officers may also i'm
pose fines for characterization or re
fusal to perform, in proper manner,
such work as may be provided.
Sec. 4. The term of working such
tramps on the streets or other public
works, or Of hiring them to public per
sons, shall not exceed one month, al
any time, and at the end of their tern
they shall be discharged, but may b.
again arrested and put to work a

The Delaware Democrat of &c

The Delaware Democrat of George
town comments entertainingly upon
the pending measure providing salaries
for county Offices, instead Of fees, as
at present. The provisions of the bill,
the Democrat holds, should have
some respect to the amount of work
done by those holding them, and not
class together those in different coun-
siss, allowing them the same salary.
without regard to the difference in
labor performed,in each. For instance,
the prothonotaries in Kent and Sussex
counties, and also the registers in both
counties, arc to be allowed salaries,
the former of two thousand dollars year
each and the latter of fifteen hundred
dollars each. Kent is smaller both in
territory and population than Sussex,
and the Offices of the former county pay
much less than in this. According to
justice, IN fixing the salaries that paid
to the Kent man should be less than
that paid the officer here. In the bill,
as it is az present, the advantage is
with the Kent officer. whose salary for
his work is the same as the Sussex man
Is to receive for much greater labor.
In Kent county, too, the county is in
good financial condition, and the sal
aries will be paid IN cash. How is it
in this county? Under Republican rule
orders have SO far multiplied and the
income has SO decreased that there is
no money in the treasury for the pay
ment of the county debts, and a salary
of two thousand dollars would be
equivalent to much less than that sum
In cash. In truth, so great have the
number and amount of county orders
become that it is impossible to get
money for them at almost any discount,
the only persons who buy them being
those who want TO pay their taxes with
them, or who buy them at a low price
for purposes of speculation. "
This is not an encouraging state Of
affairs, and the Democrat justly urges
that the First and most important
matter is to reform the financial condi.
ton Of our county, so that an allow
ance Of one dollar by the Levy Couri
will mean ono dollar in cash paid t.
the holder, and not seventy-iive cent:
as is now too often the case. wher
this is done the extravaganza Of tn,
financial body and all its arpointees
should be stopped, and the business o
tho county should be kept in the hands
of business men, who will conduct /
in an economical manner, for the bes
interests of the people. Then, and no
until then, will we be able to regulat
our affairs with those of the othe
counties, and know what to do in rela
tion to the reform of payment of count
oiiicers.''

Tn. psnn.,l,anla rl.e,,on..

Local elections were held throughout
the cities. boroughs and towns of Penn
sylvania, Tuesday, and the result was
tine usual Republican walkover. In
Philadelphia, Coroner Samuel II. Ash
bridge, Republican, was elected mayor
to succeed Charles +. Warwick by a
plurality of at least one hundred
thousand votes over DIR. W. Horace
Hoskins, Democrat, and the Prohibit
tion, Peoples and Single Tax candi-
dates.
John L. Kinsey, Republican, was
elected TO succeed himself as city
solicitor.
Harry Fletcher and John D. Lukens,
Republicans, and John A. Thornton,
Democrat, were elected police magis-
trates, the minority party being entitled
by law to one OF these offices.
Select and common councimen,
school directors and minor ward and
division officers were also elected.
In Pittsburg and Allegheny there
was an unprecedented victory for the
Republican ticket. As to Fittsburg,
figures arc given out at Republican
headquarters indicating the election Of
W. j. Diehl, Republican, for mayor,
over ex-Postmaster J. G. O'Donnell,
Democrat, by majority Of 10, 900, and
possibly more. Allegheny has probably
elected James G. Wyman, Republican,
for mayor over Edward G. Lang, Demo
GRAFT, by at least 5000 majority.
At Lebanon, Dr. Samuel Weise, anti
Quay Republican, was elected State
Senator, to succeed Gen. ]. p. S. Goblin,

In Cumberland county Edgar s.

recently died.
Democratic mayors we're chosen ir
Harrisburg and Altoona.
Chester went Republican by an in

Gratis were largely successful, the anti
Quay Republicans helping them.
Ordinarily, it is better to keel
municipal politics outside Of loca
elections, but the straight party line
were drawn in nearly all of these Penn
sylvania contests. This only makes tn
completeness of tho Democratic rou
more painfully apparent. 1t shows hot
the recent unnwise and asinine man
agement Of the Democratic party ha
dissipated its strength in the Stat
and in Philadelphia, until it is MOI
unable to make decent showing. An
yet its opposition to the Republica

formidable and frequently successful.

Cash Orders UnIsss Accepted by Him.
DR.. L. Heisler Ball, State treasurer,
has sent notice to the banks not TO
cash orders on the State treasurer
unless they have been accepted by him.
This applies particularly to orders
passed by the Trustees of the State
Hospital at Farnhurst. DIR. Ball found
this action necessary because of the
low condition Of the State finances.
Although the Legislature has passed
the appropriation bill for the State
Hospital, yet there is no money to
place to the credit Of that appropria-
tion and will not be until the loan of
s35, 900, recently allowed, is made.
The hospital trustees, however, issued
orders as il the money was in hand and
the banks were accepting these as if
they were checks. When DIR. Ball
found that the orders were coming in
and there were not funds to pay them, he
sent out the notice to the banks. The
orders will now be held up until the
State has the money to pay them.
