POLITICAL GOSSIP.

The apathy that was feature Of

given place to a spirit and enthusiasm
among the Republican voters and work.

of the victory that will be won next
Tuesday.
In no campaign of recent years has
there been such harmony and such
| earnest, steadfast work upon the part

licans as in this one. 1t augurs we'll
not only for success in the present bat
tie but for the success of Republican,
ism in the future that such is the case.
| Lackawanna county, as it ought to be,
is safely Republican if Republicans
but do their duty. Every member Of
the party ought not only vote, but see
to it that his neighbor votes. A case
which illustrates the necessity of every
Republican exercising the right that
devoves upon him as citizen is fur
nished by the election Of a county con-
troler last fall. over $1,000 votes were
cast for that Office and the plurality of
the successful candidate, e. A. Jones,
was but eleven votes. Let no man
say my vote won't make any differ

this county has had elections in which
one vote would have changed the result
for an Office.
There will be Il meeting of the
| general Republican county committee
| on Saturday at which the final plans
for Tuesdays battle will be discussed.
The reports that County Chairman H.
L. Taylor has had from his committee
indicated that the people of the county
are now fully alive to the Importance
of this election and that they are de-
termined to send Hon. William Connell
back to congress and elect with him
the whole Republican ticket.
The instructions that every conf
mittee man will receive will be get
every Republican to vote" That ac-
compished there is no question about
the result.
Last night there was meeting
marked by great enthusiasm at Peters
burg where the local candidates met
the voters of that part of the city and
made short addresses. They We're ac-
companied by County Chairman Taylor
and Frank Becker of the executive

ton, and now has only three places idle.
the Laurel Run, Plymouth No. and
Baltimore slope. All the companies in
creased their forces and most places
are practically working ful-handed.
Number at Work.
About S5 per cent. of the old en-
ployes are back at work, according to
the statements of the companies rep
resentatives. District President Mich
oils fixes the proportion still remaining
idle at 20 per cent. These percentages
both include the men who We're em-
ployes at places that have not as vet
resumed. 1t is confidently expected that
every colliery in the valley excepting
the Hallstead and Richmond No. g.
which is being repaired, will have
started up before the end of the week
and that practically all the old hands
will be back in their places. 1t will
probably be ten days or two weeks be-
fore the normal output will be reached
All the companies will attempt to
work their colleries today, though it is
likely few. If any, places can be oper-
ated. because Of the determination Of
the men to take a day off to celebr$ te
Mitchell day, the anniversary of the
ending of the 1900 strike. The COM
panies have received no notice from the
men that they do not intend to work.
District President Nichols. of the Unit
ed Mine Workers, stated that no notice
had been sent out by the union anent
the observance of Mitchell day this
year. but everybody concerned has
notice of it, he said. through the action
of the Shamokin convention, two years
ago, prescribing that October % each
year should be an idle day.
The fact that the mines should be
thrown idle unnecessarily just at this
time is n source of much regret TO the
companies.
Reports Not True.
The reported discharge of alleged in
competent non-union engineers at the
Continental and the Storrs No. COL
lleries of the Delaware, Lackawanna
and Western companies and the sub
stitution of the old union employees
proves to be untrue. In one instance all
the old engineers continued at work.
In the other there was no such incident
as reported.
Colonel H. A. Coursen, ex-commander
of the Thirteenth, has been appoint-
ed by Governor Stone to take the
vote of the Thirteenth, if the regiment
is i'm camp on election day. The fact
that such an appointment was made
tends to the belief that there is at least
no present intention to order the Thir-
teenth home this week, as was rumored
Monday.
Visitors will be admitted to the Thir-
teenth regiment camp tomorrow from
1890 TO $50 p, m. There will be guard
mount at o'clock, followed by a band
concert. Dress parade will take place
at O'Clock.

The members of the coal strike COM
| mission, which begins It's Investigations
here tomorrow morning. will arrive this
evening and take quarters at the Jer-
myn. Thomas Fl. Watkins, at whose
suggestion the commission Will begin It's
work by visiting the coal fields, will re-
turn from Washington this morning and
arrange the necessary prelminaries.
Just how the commission Will go
about it's work has not as vet been
learned. All that is known is that 1t
will start out tomorrow morning at 0
o'clock from the Jermyn and visit some
of the coal mines. How long the COM
missioners will stay, or whether or not
they will take any testimony here, is
not known. The probabilities are that
they will make a tour Of the anthracite
region to acquaint themselves with the
physical features of coal mining and
then sit at some central place, probably
Wilkes Barre or Scranton, to hear evil
dence from the miners side. After that
will likely come sessions in New York,
Philadelphia or Washington, to hear
the operators statements and to frame
their report.
Gathering Material.
The companies. through their local
superintendents,an the miners, through
the officers of their union, are hard at
work gathering material for the state
ments to be presented to the commits
sion. District President Nichols, of the
mine workers. is being assisted by four
amanuenses in collecting the material
to be forwarded from this region for
use in National President Mitchells
statement.
After the commissioners compare the
mile or more of facts and figures likely
to be presented by both Sides the stu
alton will be perfectly clear to them,
maybe.
The five big coal companies, having
their headquarters in Scranton, are
now getting out more than seventy-five
per cent. Of their normal output. The
output for Monday was $4,000 tons
which is only $4,000 tons less than what
is ordinarily produced. The following
table compiled from figures secured at
the companies offices shows the normal
output of each company, the tonnage for
Monday. the number of mines owned by
each company and the number at
which no work is being done:
