Selecting Assistants.

County Treasurer-elect John j. Moore
does not believe in keeping any one in
suspense regarding the appointments he
has to make In his office. His official
family will be made up as follows:
Chief deputy, George T. Kirkendall, Of
barre. Mr.. Kirkdenall is at present a
clerk In the Office. Mr.. Mundy is a
member OF Wilkesbarre select council
1t is understood that Commissioners
elect Finn and Schappert have decided
to appoint James w. Holman, OF Halle
ton, who was defeated for register Of
Wills last week, as chief clerk in their
office. w. j. Devaney, OF Wikesbarre,
is said to be in line for the assistant
chief clerkship.
With regard to the other appoint
ments nothing has yet been definitely
decided upon and may not be for some
days. There are number of candi-
dates for clerkships, among them John
j. NcNelis, OF town, whose application
is endorsed by practically the entire
local Democracy, Mr.. McNelis is one
Of Coke Bros. S5 Co.'s blacklist victims
and deserves to be recognized, not alone
for his heroic stand during the strike
but for his answering loyalty andtidellty
to Democracy in every local and general
campaign since he entered politics. His
appointment would be a tribute to party
work which has been well earned and
would meet with the approval of every
lower end Democrat who believes in re-
warding those who have given years of
honest service for the ticket.
Register of Wills Mainwarng, who
was reelected, is said to be contemplat-
ing some changes in his force. One Of
the names suggested as likely to be
chosen for deputy register is that of W.
]. Morgan, of town. His appointment
would be pleasing news to his many
local friends.

Trial Suddenly Ended.

The trial OF the case of John Smith,
one OF the murderers of the Watchman
Daniel Sweeney, at Nanticoke, suddenly
terminated, when the prisoner, acting
under the advice of his counsel, with
drew his plea of not guilty and entered
plea of guilty, the degree to be fixed
by the conrt. Owing to the circum-
stances of the case and the fact that the
evidence against the defendant was
mainly circumstantial, the district at
torney and Judge Wheaton agreed to
the change of the plea and the degree
of the crime was fixed as murder In the
second degree.
Michael Yushkis, another OF the four
men charged the murder, was then call
ed for trial before Judge Halsey. The
prisoner held a short consultation with
his counsel and when the indictment
was read to him by the district attorney
and he was asked to plead he entered a
plea of guilty through his attorneys and
agreed that the degree of the crime
should be fixed by the court.
In order that Judge Halsey could have
an understanding of the facts connected
with the case Paul Tomchek, one Of the
men who was the first to attempt to clear
his skirts of the crime, was called to the
stand and examined His story was a
practical repetition OF the evidence he
had given in the trial of Smith.
After hearing some more testimony
Judge Halsey fixed the degree OF the
crime as murder in the second degree

and the prisoner was remanded to the
jail to await sentence.
The trial Of Ignatz Sbukis, the third
defendant, was then set down for Mon
day next, and at its completion Tom
chek, the fourth man, will be called
upon to face the jury.
Those who have followed the case and
who are acquainted with inside facts
are satisfied that 1t was not the inten tion
Of the defendants to kill Sweeney, but
that they were angry because he remain
ed at work during the strike and intend
ed to beat him.
