Cemetery May Gave In.

The congregation of st. Vincent's s
church at Plymouth has applied for
an Injunction to restrain the King
ston Coal Company from robbing
the pillars in the mines under the
cemetery in which one thousand
bodies are buried. There is dan
ger, if the pillars are removed, that
the surface may drop into the old
workings of the mine, as a cave.in
has already occurred at one end Of
the cemetery.
The case forms one Of the most
interesting legal contentious ever
heard in the anthracite coal regions.
The company asserts that it sold
only the surface and has the right
to mine underneath, but if they do,
the congregation asserts that the
bodies buried there will drop into
the mines. 1t has been decided in
a case from Columbia County that
when coal company sells the sur-
face, reserving the right to mine
underneath, that it could do so even
If the buildings erected on the sur
tace were destroyed by cave.ins.
There may be different interpreta-
,lon IN the case of cemetery.

VOTE FOR
ALBERT w. DUY, of Bloomsbury.

Not as much Of chance as we have
i'll the State of Pennsylvania. You
know how they treat us in the
State. Why they don't give us
anything except what we fight for.
l think they will give us State
Treasurer this time, because we are
fighting for it and we will win too.
The Citizens Party of Philadelphia,
independent Republicans) would
not put Berry's name on their tick
ct as their Candidate for State
Treasurer, yet the Democrats EN-
dCrsed John Stewart for Supreme
Court Judge. Even the Independ-
ent Republicans will not recognize
Our party by putting Democrat on
their ticket. Therefore l say that
l caunot conceive of reason why
any Democrat should support Mr..
Sands for County Commissioner.
He is staunch Republican, always
has been and always will be. Let
Mr.. Sands get his votes, il he gets
any, from the Republican party, to
which he belongs. Our party has
two men nominated for the Office of
County Commissioner and both are
loyal Democrats, and every demo-
cratic voter in the County should
stand by them, and show Mr..
Sands if he wants to run as all inde-
pendent Candidate, he must get
his votes from his own party. The
election Of Republicans to office in
Columbia County, will only
strengthen the Republicans to of
flee in Columbia County, will only
strengthen the Republican machine
Let us beat them bad enough to
discourage it il the future.

against. See Legislative Record,
page SI4,
On the roth of March notice was
given to the House that OIL Mon
day evening. March goth, a resolu-
ton would again be offered to dis
charge the committee from further
consideration Of the bill. In the
meantime the committee met and
agreed to report it out with mega
tive recommendation. When on the
Goth of March a resolution was
offered to discharge the committee,
the committee said they were ready
to report but would not report. The
resolution was declared out of order
by the chair from which decision
appeal was taken which was lost by
vote of IL to I54. See Legislative
Record, page 1906.
The only object can see for not
reporting the bill was in the hope
that no vote would be reached on
the bill during the session. On
March 2Ist the bill was reported
from committee with a negative
recommendation On the 27th of
March a resolution was offered to
place the bill on the calendar.
Under the rules of the House this
resolution WAS laid over until next
resolution day. On March goth an
effort was made to amend the Street
Railway bill of Representative
HUM by inserting proviso that
trolleys should have the right to
carry freight but this amendment
was lost by vote of 100 to So. The
test vote was taken on April sd,
when the resolution was called up
to place the bill on tie calendar,
Notwithstanding tt he negative
recommendation of the committee.
1t was necessary under the rules
of the House to have Io3 votes to
pass the resolution, while to dis
charge committee it only required
majority of the members voting.
The resolution was defeated by
vote of &c in favor to 81 against it.
The balance of the 2o3 members
either lodged the vote or were alb
sent.
Thus ended one of the hardest
fights for trolleys to carry freight.
But it can be won at the next ses-
sion if the farmers go at il with
will. Keep all members at home
who are not openly in favor of this
measure. The time has come that
halfway promises are no good. Be
sure not to return those members
who disobeyed your wishes in this
matter.

What to Read in November.

Caroline Duer' new novel, "Cin-
derella of the Garden House." ap-
pears complete in LIPpINcoTT' S
MAGAZINE for November. The
"Cinderella' of Miss Duer's Great
ing is young American girl who
is making tour of Europe in the
train of an uncongenial stepmother.
AT Rome the prototype fairy god
mother appears and soon the Prince
draws near-and thereby hangs the
tale.
The November LIPPINCOTT' S
pays respect in large measure to
the two supreme subjects of the
month: Football and Elections.
Ralph Henry Barbour's Harvard
Yale football story is called "The
Dub" Girls say it is splendid
story; so Barbour scores as we'll as
his college. The best election story
of the month is that called "Spat-
ter's Campaign" by Sarah Com
stock.
A good example of "the noble
art OF self-defence" is given under
the title of 1.-The Broken Foil" by
Fred Gilbert Blakeslee. The title
of Eleanor H. Porter's story Is one
to keep you guessing. She calls it
Nuts to crack and Mary Ellen" 4"
Life in village runs along with
out a ripple until some little. sus-
pected human tragedy is uncovered
which shakes the very foundations.
Such an incident is that told by Lii
zette Woodwork Reese under the
title of "Henrietty." The racing
season makes Alfred Stoddart's en-
tertaining steeple-chase sketch, en-
titled "Over the Jumps" especial
ly timely reading.
Maud Howe is the author of a
del ghtful fiction-travel paper called
bad Langenschwalbach." A
sketch, by Isabel Gordon Curtis, is
called "An Inherited Autograph. "
In it the autograph of the late JOS
eph Jefferson is reproduced as we'll
as that of the first Joseph Jefferson,
which it strikingly resembles.
The November number closes
with its usual light course called
"Walnuts and Vine" in which
spice is never lacking.

all the electrical accessories. An
electrical engine and an electrical

also been installed, as we'll as a

The rooms have been repapered,

Barney Had Been 0bservant'

They called him Barney the
Blunderer" because he made so
many mistakes. He had been work.
ing for a coal dealer about six
months, and was an earnest, honest
soul, but he did not seem to learn
anything concerning the details OF
the business.
One morning, after having deliv-
cred coal to two wrong addresses,
he was rather short and crusty in
answering regular customer, so
the proprietor discharged him, say.
ing, "Go to the Office and get your
money. I've been as patient with
you as l could be, but you are too
thick headed to ever learn any
thing"
"All roight, sir" answered Bar
ney. "Mebbe Dim ick-headed,
as yez say, but Olive learned wan
ting, annaway.'
"If you have really learned one
thing, and learned it we'll, I'll not
discharge you." said the proprietor
banteringly. Now, tell me what
you have learned"
"Oi've learned, sor, that siven-
teen hundred makes a ton in this
place." replied Barney, and he
went back to work .--Wopember

TROLLEY LEGISLATION AT The SBs-
SION OF 1905.

The October number of Pennsyl.
vania orange Me5oS contains the
following article by Hon. w. I.
Greasy
There were two bills introduced
allowing trolleys to carry freight.
One in the Senate and one in the
House. The one in the Senate was
introduced by Senator Herbst, of
Berks County, and reads as follows:
Supplement to an Act, entitled,
can Act to provide for the incor-
poration and government of street
railway companies in this Common.
wealth." approved the 14th day of
May, 1889, giving said companies
the right to carry freight.
Be it enacted, etc. That street
railway companies heretofore in
corporated under the provisions of
the Act of I4th May, 1889, and its
supplements, shall have in addition
to the powers and privileges con-
ferred by the said Act of I4th Nav,
1889, the right to carry package
and bulk freight originating on the
line of said railway companies, to
any point within the termini OF the
charter limits of said companies.
AS will be noticed this is mild
er measure than the one introduced
in the House. The Senate being in
close touch with the great corporate
interest of the State, it was though.
possibly this might pass that corpo-
alton body. But it didn't. 1t was
reported out Of committee and then
reported back to the committee and
never heard from. Whether it died,
strayed away or was stolen, no one
knows.
The House bill was introduced
by the editor of this department
and reads as follows
AN ACT.
To authorize street railway com.
panies and traction motor COM
panies, Lessees of any street rail
way company to carry freight and
to charge and collect compensation
therefor.
SECTION I. Be it enacted by the
Senate and House of Representa-
tives of the Commonwealth of Penn
sylvania in General Assembly met.
and it is hereby enacted by authori-
ty of the same, That any street
railway company heretofore or
hereafter incorporated under the
laws Of this Commonwealth,
whether under general or special
Jaw, and any traction motor COM
pany, lessee of the whole or any
part of the lines of any street rail-
way company, is authorized to
larry freight and to charge and col
lect a reasonable compensation
therefor, and any limitation in the
charter of any such company as
aforesaid which restricts to the car
7iage of passengers only, is hereby
repealed. Provided that the pro-
visions Of this Act be subject to
equations of Borough and City
Councils.
This bill met with great favor
throughout the State. 1t was franz
ID and supported by the Grange as
we'll as by all other business inter
.sts in the State except the steam
railroads and their agents.
The bill was brought before the
House i'll one form or the other on
our different occasions. At each
'ime a vote was taken which is re-
,orded in the journal of the House
proceedings. The bill was intro
Iuced early in the session and was
ceferred to the committee on city
passenger railways where it quietly
-,lept for nearly two months, when
IN March 9th a resolution was
,fered to discharge the committee
from further consideration of the
ill. This resolution was defeated
