SHOOTING SQUIRRELS
OUT OF SEASON.

The attention of some of our sports
men has been called to the fact that
the game law is being violated by the
shooting of grey squirrels, which do
not come into season until October
18th. The red squirrel is not protected
by the game law and while hunting
for these, it is charged the hunters
miss no opportunity TO bag grey
squirrel when one presents itself. In
this way a number have been illegally
slaughtered.
1t should hardly be necessary at this
timo to print any of the provisions of
| the game law, but it would be well
for all parties to remember that there
is heavy penalty attached to the kill
ing of grey, black or fox squirrels out
of season. The offender is liable to
ten dollars fine for each and every
squirrel taken or killed or impIison-
ment i'll the county Jail for a period
of one day for each dollar of penalty
imposed
Squirrels, it is said, will be very
plentiful this season. Pheasants have
not been seen in very great numbers,
but quail abound almost every where.
Many of these are said to be small,
and what is more remarkable and
quite unheard of among sportsmen is
thG fact that como of tho 1noi1 oro et 1

The Road TO Anarchy,

One of the most dangerous tenden.
cies Of modern American life, appar-
emily becoming every day more preva-
lent, is the disposition wantonly and
recklessly to speak Ill of those who are
charged with the performance of public
duties. Instead of the respect which
in the days of our fathers was exhib-
tied toward those selected by the peo-
pie for Office, ii is the habit of our time
to offer them only abuse If we ever
succeed in entirely destroying the con-
fidence of the people in those who ad-
minister the government we shall have
reached the time when the government
itself is ready to perish. 1t is a kind
of slander which is closely akin to
treason and leads directly on the road
to anarchy and the overthrow of our
cherished institutions. 1t is the breed
ing ground where grow the sentiments
and impulses of creatures like Guiteau
and Czolgosz.-From Judge Penny
packers Erie speech.

AN INTERESTING CAREER,

William K. Lord, of Mt. Carmel,
who has been nominated by he Repub
licans of the Sixteenth district to fill
the unexpired term of the late Rufus
Polk, in Congress, stands more mark
edly than any other man in this dis
trlct, perhaps, for the rise of the
working man. Born in Schuylkill
county thirty eight years ago, his early
life was spent between the coal break
ers, where as slate picker he began
to learn the value of hard earned
dollar and the public schools where
he gathered permanently that sort of
lasting education which has made a
success of so many lowly born Amer
leans.
Ever since those days he has been
climbing. He moved up the ranks of
coiliery hands until he became clerk.
Then he opened in Mt. Carmel, a
small store which has grown today to
be the leading house of the town
while its owner takes his seat at the
directors table of the Guarantee Trust
Company and is present at the meet
ings OF the Board of Trade.
Mr.. Lord is man of more than the
usual intellectual power. He is an
omniverous reader, forcible and
ready speaker and goes to his new work
thoroughly well versed in the past do
ings and future plans of the national
Congress.

DEMOCRATIC OR REPUBLICAN.

A democratic mass meeting was
held in Trevorton last evening. Some
speeches were made and some whoop-
ing for the ticket was done.
But the most significant thing that
was done was the endorsement of
Hon. Fred A.. Godcharles for Congress.
Mr.. Godoharles is not to be on the
ticket usually voted by these citizens
but they know man who will work
in their interests when they see him,
and they have seen Mr.. Godcharles in
the state Legislature and he was not
found skulking ont of his duty there.
Now it can be- confidently predicted
that he will do his duty if placed in a
higher position where there is greater
opportunity for good work for the
interests Of our people. Mt Carmel

J. II. Frees, of this city, Delaware
Lackawanna & Western track foreman,
is working at Rupert and has charge
of all the trackmen between Northum
berland and Espy. The tracks in the
yard are being rclaid and eight new
switches are being put in, giving ad-
ditional trackage for handling the
freight traffic at that place, which is
very heavy on account of the junction
there with the Philadelphia q Read

PATTIsoN OPPOSED BY LABOR
TinpIate Workers Urge Wage Farmers
TO OnnoSa His Electiop ac Govarnor

to Oppose His Election as Governor.
At the recent tin plate conference
of the Amalgamated Association the
following resolutions were passed
Whereas, X. L. Pattison has been
selected as one of the candidates foI
governor of this great commonwealth; ;
and
Whereas. 1t is well known to organ
lied labor that said r. E. Pattison is a
most bitter enemy of organized labor as
was evidenced by his action during his
last administration by his vetoing Sen
ate bill No. 10, session of 1885, provid-
ing for a better protection of wages of
labor and providing for better system
of collection, and his vetOing House bill
No. 626. securing to mechanics and la
borers the right TO file liens on real es-
tate for wages due.
ALSO by sending troops to Home
stead during the strike of 1892, after
he had promised committee of the
workmen that no troops would be sent
there in view of the fact that Adjutant
General Greenland mad reported that
peace prevailed and that the presence
of troops was not necessary for the pre-
servation Of order; and
Whereas, 1t was stated to a COM
mittee of citizens of Homestead by
General Snowden, the representative
of Governor Pattison, that the mills
are open. and any one who the COM
pany permits to enter to work will be
protected by the troops.
Therefore, in view of all these facts,
it is resolved by the members of the
conference committee and the other
members of the Amalgamated Associa-
tion of Iron. Steel and Tin Workers.
that we do condemn unqualifiedly and
without reserve, the action of former
Governor r. f. Pattison, and we recon-
mend that all union men vote and use
their influence to defeat this enemy Of
organized labor"

I'VE take great pleasure in stating
that the Hon. Boies PeGEose Of Penn

to aid in the passage Of this bill which
is of inestimable benefit to the dairy
interests, and we very much doubt If
It would have become o law, with It's

in its behalf
Wealthy oleomargarinc dealers and

unCcasing zeal to defeat this measure
and thereby seriously cripple the great
dairy interests, but on account of the
answering fidelity of Senator Penrose
to the farmers and dairymen, theiI
efforts We're rendered unsuccessful.
In view of this we would respect

A couple of campaigners who at a
loss for material that would disparage
the Republican candidate for Congress
IN the eyes of the average voter OH a
recent trip to Danville concocted a

Milton to advance his men to 81. 80

being notified by the management of
the Reading Iron Co., that they pro-
