"As everything in regard to King Edward VII
seems to be Of public interest nowadays, | am
reminded OF a little incident during his visit
10 this country when lac was Prince of Wales" 4"
said Colonel II. II. Read, OF Philadelphia, TO a
Post reporter at Chambcrlin's "New York city,
where | then resided was excited over his pres
cnce, aud great demonstrations were made in his
honor. Broadway was proiusely decorated, and
on the day that he was escorted along that
thoroughiare enormous crowds turned out to pay
respect to Brtain's future sovereign. | can't re-
member the exact spot, but it was somewhere
ON lower Broadway, that a huge inscription had
been hung out, which read thus: Welcome to
the Prince Wales, may &c be many years be.
fore he is king OF England This legend met
Wales eve, and the minute he caught its import,
he rose in his carriage, took of his hat, and
made low obeisanco, amid the plaudts Of thous-

Poor Luzerne.

@HE LEGAL fraternity in

4 ask the legislature to au-
Lhorize an additional law
Judge for Luzerne county and some
strong arguments are offered to show
that increase of court facilities is de-
sirable. Inasmuch, however, as there
Is no pressing need for another judge,
no overwhelming popular demand
which it would be the clear duty of
the legislature to respect regardless
of politics or fractional alignment, the
movement for a new judge must take
its place at Harrisburg among the
subjects of legislation which are grant
cd or withheld according to the pleas
ure of the dominant powers. Not be-
ing an imperious necessity, 1t becomes,
as it were, a species of legislative lux
ury allowable or not as the organiza-
tion shall decree. Whether this should
or should not be SO. it is so, and ac-
c1pting it as so, how does Luzerne
county stand as an applicant for or
ganization favors?
publican representatives of Luzerne
county have done their best to over
throw the existing administration at
Harrisburg, and while in the case of
one of these representatives, Mr.. Co
ray, this opposition has been straight
forward and consistent from the start
thus emitting it to the respect even of
those who do not sympathizc with it,,
in the case of the senator and at least
two of the representatives there has
been political double dealing of the
most contemplate character Certain
ly, with the exception of Representa-
tive Haworth. the organization owes
nOthing politically to the Luzerne dele
cation. Nor is it especially indebted
TO the bar of the mother county. A
large percentage of its Republican
members have, for no particular rea-
son other than the natural tendency
of ptrverse mankind to rail at those
peptic wake of the scolding insurgent
organs, whose bilious output of libel
and eXaggeration they have accepted
meekly, without discount or investiga-
ton. Even the lawyers who know bet
ter have been too indolent or apathetic
TO take part in the efforts of the stall
warts to put Luzerne on a common
sense course. where it could take po-
sition of influence in state affairs COM
mcnsurate with its size and wealth.
SO that now, whatever consideration
may come to Luzerne from the domi-
nant influences at Harrisburg must he
sought in tha hang-dog fashion of the
discounted opponent begging grace
from the enemy who has licked him
rather than demanded both as a ma
tural right and as political tribute to
invincible strength.
