Local Prices Should Fall.

Reports from tdewater points and
the large cities Indicate that the general
coal famine has come to an end. There
are spots where anthracite is still a
scarce article, but these are isolated
sections and the trouble is due to local
circumstances. In New York and
Philadelphia the markets are, becoming
congested, and in the former city an
thracite is now S6 50 ton There is so
much coal in that city at the present
time that the retail dealers held a meet
ing on Saturday to decide whether or
not they should reduce the price to Sc
a ton. After long conference it was
decided to keep coal at the present mar
ket price of So. so a ton
Outside the anthracite region people
who need coal can buy it in any quanti
ty and size they desire. Freeland con
sumers, however, are not so fortunate.
Here they are still paying famine figures
and are restricted as to quantity and
size. Markle & Co. continue to adhere
to their rule Of refusing coal to all ex-
cept their employees. Coke Bros & Co.
sell pea coal only and in half-ton lots at
that for which they get SO. 25 ton at

Drifton breaker. Upper Lehigh Com
pany will sell pea, chestnut or stove, but
the distance it must be hauled makes
the cost very high. Since the price of
coal fell in the large cities M. Schwabe
has been selling to the local trade in
small quantities.
Freeland consumers deserve more
consideration from the individual oper-
ators hereabouts than they are receiv
ing. Situated, as they are, in the
midst of millions of tons of anthracite,
they should be permitted to buy such
sizes and in such quantities as are best
adapted to their needs. Consumers 200
miles away from the region can now do
this, and the discrimination against
Freeland patrons should be removed
without further DELAY. .'t

participation in the strike.
The deceased resided for many years
at old Buck Mountain and later at High

three sons and two daughters, viz, Mrs.
John Sharpe, Oneida; John, Lansford,
and Maggie, Timothy and James, at
home. lnterment of the remains will

Poor District Report.

The annual financial report of the
Middle Coal Field Poor District appears
on the third page of this issue, and we
commend it to our readers as worthy of
perusal and consideration. The report
is very complete and shows in detail
how the finances of the district are ex-
pended by the directors and others in
charge of the funds. The district is
one of the largest and most complex of
its kind in the state and requires per-
sonal and constant attention from the
directors. The latter have done ex-
ceedingly well during the past year,
having kept the expenses down to near
ly $4,000 less than the previous year,
Notwithstanding the fact that the coal
strike made an unusually heavy de-
mand for outdoor relief
The taxpayers are justified in con.
cluding, after examining the report
that the district is in good hands, and
the recommendations made for needed
improvements should be warmly sup
nOrted

Mine Burning Since 1857.

The Lehgh Coal and Navigation Com
pany will shortly begin the work of
quenching the mine fire in the old
Greenwood workings, near Tamaqna,
which has been raging since 1857 The
same methods used at the famous burn
ing mines at Summit Hill will be adopt
ed. Holes will be bored in the top of
the mountain through which culm will
be poured upon the fire.
When the fire started the workings
were owned by the Little SchuylkiIl
Company. They spent thousands of
dollars in tho effort to extinguish the
fire, but all to no avail, and several lives
were lost in the attempt.
When the fire is extinguished the com
pany will be enabled to tap some of the
richest veins in that region.

IN THE WORLD
OF POLITICS
Candidates for Local Offices
Sure Of Victory.
Democratic Nominees Feel
Confident That the Result
Will Favor Them When
TomorroW's Polls Close.

The politicians of the borough have
practically completed their preliminary
work for tomorrows contest, and both
sides present facts and figures which
make their friends confident that vic
tory will perch tomorrow evening above
the names of their favorites. Notwith
standing the assurance thus displayed,
those who are not misled by the parti-
sans concede that the chances for sue
cess are far more favorable to the Dem
ocrats than their opponents
The town being Democratic by a
majority of at least 100 votes, the Re-
publcans, to win, must necessarily have
made an aggressive fight for votes.
This, so far, has not been done. and it is
too late now, according to results of the
past, for them to overcome the natural
lead of the majority party.
In previous elections for burgess and
tax collector the Republicans were
equipped with an organization and gave
valiant battle at every poll. This year
their candidates find themselves fighting
almost alone, with their rank and file
apparently disinterested and lukewarm
as to the result and with no organized
effort being made to gain votes from the
Democrats.
On the other hand the Democratic
candidates, Messrs. Oherrender, Nc
Nelis and Conahan, the aspirants for
burgess, tax collector and auditor re-
spectively, have made good canvass of
the borough and are assured of solid
support from their own side and no
small amount of help from Republicans
who are dissatisfied with their party as
at present controlled
well manned with intelligent and ex-
perienced votegetters, and will make
an aggressive fight in every ward.
The candidates for school directors
and councilmen in all the wards, in
cluding those where the Republicans
were too ,faiuthearted to name tickets,
are working unitedly and sincerely for
the success OF the general ticket as we'll
as for their own, and as far as present
indications can be relied upon the party
will score its usual tr-ennial victory
tomorrow.

The wheat from the chaff, the

nice stories in the papers nowadays
of big reductions, but when you
examine facts back of the words
you are more than likely to find
promises which the makers cannot
fulfill and would not if they could.
For our part we would rather
shut up our store and be idle than
give anybody the right to say of it:
"Ihat store is not as careful of its
reputation as it used to be-" Re-
putation is the bread and butter of
this business, and is worth more to
us than the few paltry dollars an
end of the seasons sale brings, if
conducted under false pretenses.
The middle of the winter finds
us with quite an assortment of sea-
sonable goods, including Rubber
Boots and Shoes, Hats and Caps,
Gloves, Extra Heavy Underwear,
Heavy Hosiery, and other articles
designed for wear during this
weather. These we have reduced
in price-not to less than half their
cost-but to figure which will
pleasingly surprise the buyer.
In Winter Neckwear, Collars,
Cuffs, Mems Dress and Working

Shoes, Gents Furnishings, etc,
our lines are very complete and
the stock is of that same high grade
which you always found in our

that child can buy here as cheap

A Famous Physician.

Sir Morrell Mackenzie was physic-
ian to half the crowned heads of Europe,
A man 80 in demand but royalty must
have possessed no little skill and, in
fact, it is admitted by the doctors,
great and small, that for treatment of
nose aud throat diseases his equal has
not appeared,
His Particular "Method" pursued in
the treatment of catarrh was to induce
normal condition of health in the
general system while destroying tie
disease centers in the nose aud throat
1t is these centcrs, VIII CHI, dischargirg
a poisonous mucus, infect the surround
ing membranes, the Eustachina Tubes
leading to the ears gradually, by abb
sorption of the blood, the whole system.
1t is necessary first to destroy the
germs of the disease by preserving
application of powerful antiseptic,
Then, the application of 3 soothing
remedy to heal the raw surfaces and
pus producing sores is of prime impol-
lance.
In every case of catarrh there is more
or less mucus dropping into the throat
behind the palate and thence into the
stomach. There the lining membranes
are attacked and an Inflammation iden-
tical with the catarrh in the head is
set up. Hence, while local treatment
is progressing, internal medication is
indicated to neutralize and eliminate
this poisonous virus which has entered
the system. For futher infOrmatit
