NOW A QUESTION OF JURISDICTION.

Two counties are interested in II
controversy, which has developed since
the killing OF Fred Kline by Arthur
Brown en- July 4th, the particulars of
which have already been printed in
the COLUMBIAN. The tragedy occurred
on the platform of boat landing on
the Susquehanna River, which makes
the dividing line between Northumber-
land and Snyder Counties. The
question of jurisdiction, which is to
determine in which county the trial is
to take place, resolves itself on the
simple proposition of whether or not
the platform, which, by reason of the
unquietness of the water, floats from
one county to the other, was ahoat at
the time of the affair. If it was
aground the platform was IN Northum-
berland County. If it was afloat it is
reasonable to believe the platform
was within the borders of Snyder
County. 1t is an extremely delicate
proposition which confronts the
authorities.

A NEW INDUSTRY.
Catawissa Has A Car Building Works With
John X. Lockard at the Head.

The plant of the Hamlin Car Wheel
and Manufacturing Company, capital
stock $Io, 100000 at this place, has
been sold to John X. Lockard, of
Bloomsburg, representing company
Of capitalists, who will at once erect
the necessary additional buildings and
install the new machinery required in
the construction of cars. 1t will require
about fifty men as soon as the works
get under way, and as the business
developes the force will be increased.
Mr.. Lockard has been in the bust
ness of manufacturing cars for the past
quarter of century, and is, in fact, a
part of the trade itself He is at pres
ent actively engaged IN the business,
but is having his cars built for him at
different shops. Under this new depart,
ure he will have his own works for
the purpose.
A new company will be formed
under the same title, "The Ha Min
Car Wheel and Manufacturing Com.
pany," with new officers, the capital
stock will be increased and the busi-
ness will be pushed for all there is in
IT. 1t will take about thirty days to
get the plant ready for business.
The export trade and the anthracite
coal trade will be looked after closely.
This trade takes largely narrow-guage
and dump-cars, the latter being manu-
iactured under Mr.. Lockard's own
patents; the mine car wheels, CRATE
bars, ETC., now manufactured under
the Hamlin patents are also largely
used in the anthracite coal trade, and
will be manufactured by the new com
pany.
The citizens Of Catawissa should
| give the new industry every encourage.
ment in their power, as there is nc
telling to what proportions it may
grow. There is an increasing market
tor its product and the men at the
head of the concern are in a position
to command a goodly share of the
trade.

never cease to grow,-Catawissa Meao!

A DOLLAR A YEAR NOT ENOUGH.

Twenty years hard experience, off
and on, have taught us that $I.5o per
year is the minimum rate an editor
can afford to furnish his weekly to his
subscribers for, says veteran Cali
fornia publisher. There are a great
many expenses connected with the
work of getting up and supplying a
local weekly that are not at first sight
apparent, and yet the number OF SUBJ
scribers which a publisher can get is
limlted-far too limited. The met
ropolitan weeklies on this coast, with
their superb equipment for printing
papers, and having the country week.
ly 10 compete with, do not furnish
their papers for less than $3.50 per
year, and this of itself is about all the
argument that is needed to show that
81 is too low.
1t is not taffy-but fact-to say
that Osborn editor of the new paper)
has got hustle enough to put his paper
wherever 1t can be placed regardless
of price. But supposing he got and
maintained 1000 paid-in-advance sub.
scribers. He will find his expenses
even if he does lift his type from a
dally-will absorb half of it, leaving
$500 for himself and partner to divide
for work than which there is no more
exactlng on the footstool.
But why should an editor belittle
his product If principal of a
school is worth $Ioo or more per
month, and a preacher thinks he is
starving to death if receiving a less
sum, then, surely an editor with all his
responsibilities is worth fully $Iso per
month; but it can never be made from
a SI-per-year subscription rate in the
country newspaper business.
Your editor has to be sefrespect-
ing. He ought to wear good clothes
and live well. He has to feel that he
is worthy of his position, and he must
have his debts paid. He occupies a
leading place in society-or ought to;
and for all these reasons and more, he
must make his business pay or his
labor is useless, and he is an incum-
brance to the community.
In conclusion-for we could fill our
columns with pertinent points on the
subject-let every honorable editor
bear IN mind that for every paid-up
subscription he receives, he virtually
gives his note of hand to more than
repay for the value received, and when
adverse seasons come, like the one we
are now experiencing and through
which he must go, where is his re
serve fund coming from to meet itp
lfthe crops fail, the farmer can
whistle and so elsewhere for a Job. II
the storekeepers's goods don't SELL
they can remain on the shelves. But
an editors stock in trade is his loca
tion and the regular issuance of hi:
paper no matter what may come in ol
60 out. His paper, ink, wear on type
labor and lent bills are all unceasing,
consuming factors right along, lik,
compound interest. He sends hi
paper out to hundreds, the none,

MEETING OF SCHOOL BOARD.
Bids Received and Contracts Awarded.

The Directors of the Bloomsbury
School District held a meeting in the
Centre Street High School Build
ing Monday night. AS the bust
ness before the Board on this occasion
was of more than ordinary import
ance, all the members were in attend
ance. The first in order was the re-
ports of the various committees. Re-
pairs were recommended at the diff
ferent buildings, and the committee
empowered to see that the same be
made at once.
Secretary Joseph Garrison reported
the amount of the tax duplicate this
year, $I7,4I7.7o, being a slight in
crease over last year.
Bids for furnishing coal and sup
plies were opened. The contract for
the coal, 275 tons OF No. g
and IS tons of No. 4, was
awarded to P. G. Miller, his bid OF
$4,000 being the lowest received.
S. r. Bidleman's offer to furnish the
supplies, consisting of books, tablets,
ETC., for $365 90, and it being the
lowest, was accepted.
There was considerable other bust
ness considered, after which the meet
ing adjourned. The next meeting
will be held Friday evening, August
18TH, at which time the teachers are
to be present and sign their contr acts.

that more arrests will follow.

Dicipline is the best thing that
can befall a small boy. The earlier
in his journey through the world it
begins the better will it be for the
man who is presently to be evolved
from the boy. 1t is not necessary
to be brutal in the enforcement of
discipline. There are men and
women in the world today who obey
the commands of their old parents
as swiftly and as implicitly as they
did in their childhood. They could
do nothing else. 1t is no hardship
for them to obey; it would be
hardship to disobey, because it
would involve the breaking Of life
long habit. On the other hand the
secret Of the multiplied misfortunes
of others is to be discovered in the
fact that they have never been
taught to obey. Discipline they
know not in youth, and thus it
happens that the stern and implac-
able hand of fate is bringing to
them in their adult years that eX-
perience which wise home training
would have enabled them to escape.
1t is not kindness to lad to permit
him to have his own way-it is the
worst of cruelties.
