THE CHICAGO ELECTION.

The election in Chicago Tuesday re-
suited in the election Of Dunno, dem
ocrat and independent over Harlan
republican, by nearly $4,000 plurality
There was very little politics In the
contest. the issue being over the NUM-
cipal ownership of street railways. The
democrats favored the immediate pos
session, either by purchase or con-
demnation proceedings, while the re-
publicans favored submitting the ques-
.tion 10 a referendum vote OF the peo-
pie. The voters favored the former
plan. for the reason that the railway
companies had become intolerant and
insoIent. and every man who had rode
on a street car and had not been treat
ed as a gentleman, voted the demo-
cratic ticket TO get even with the rail-
ways AMI politics were not considered,
There was marked falling or in
the socialists vote, they polling less
than $4,000 votes.
In 1904, during the presidential elec-
tion, the socialists OF Chicago polled
1926 votes. But their vote was In
creased by democrats who would not
vote for Parker, and not by any In
crease in the socialists vote. This
was true in every city and county
where the socialists had ticket. Their
large vote in 1900 was not due to any
accession to their ranks, but on ac-
count of democratic voters who pre-
ferred TO vote for Debs in preference

Reading to Make Its Own Locomotives

Ten large freight engines of the
latest style will be built in the near
future by the Philadelphia and
Reading Railway Company at its
shops at Reading. With these
engines and with the order for ten
locomotives to be erected by the
Baldwin Locomotive works, the
motive power Of the company will
be sufficiently increased to take care
of the heavy freight traffic which
the company has at the present
time and which the officials say,
will continue throughout the winter
and far into the spring.
This will be the first time in
many years that the company has
erected engines in its own shops
and if the venture proves a success
the shops at Reading will be enlarg
ed so that the best part of the
motive power machines can be
erected there. The construction oi
the locomotives by the railway com
pany emphasizes the fact that a new
policy is being adopted. The
Pennsylvania Railroad turns out a.
fine locomotive engines in it's shop.
at Altoona as are built in tn;
country and will in the near future
erect number of electric locomo
tives on the style of the one turned
out about three weeks ago which i.

TIE LINCOLN PARTY.

The first convention of the Lin
coin party was held in Philadel-
pbia on Monday. More than two
thirds OF the counties in the state
were represented. This party starts
out as the avowed enemy of graft,
and with the declared purpose of
defeating J. Lee Plummer, the
republican candidate for state
treasurer. The executive com
mittee was organized with Henry
c. Niles of York as chairman.
They nominated a ticket consisting
of the regular Republican candi-
dates for the Supreme and Superior
courts. and w. H. Berry for state
treasurer, he being the nominee of
Democratic and Prohibition parties.
The convention was made up of
men who have been prominent in
the Republican party, but who are
tired of the mismanagement of the
Republican state organization, and
of graft in every phase. A vigorous
campaign vii! be conducted.

TIE PUBLIC WILL PAY

II VIII Cost the Consumers Of Coal Between
Five and Six Million Dollars Annually

The Williamsport SIN says: John
Mitchell, president of the United
Mine Workers Of America, is
Strengthening the union i'll prepara-
ton for trouble. That trouble is
expected to en.er the anthracite
region next spring when the min
ers shall demand an eight hour day
which the operators declare they
will not grant. In anticipation Of
strike the coal operators are storing
coal. Thus it is apparent that a
long and bitter strike will be pre-
cipitated, with the general public
as the victims, who will be ground
beneath the upper and retber mill
stones. How this conflict can be
avoided is not perceptible to the
public at present. Everything
points to the greatest and longest
strike in the record Of the anthra-
cite region. The operators assert
that if they concede the miners de.
mand for an eight hour day it will
mean an addition Of between S.
600, 900 and 1000, 900 a year to
the wages Of the mine workers
The companies would have to pay
this, bit only as the disbursing
agents Of the consumers of coal.
Every dollar of the amount would
have to come out of the pockets of
the users of anthracite. for the coal
companies would clap on an addi.
tional fifty cents per ton to reim-
burse themselves for the extra out
lay. And the public would be
helpless. This would be another
case Of the public be ID, or

ary, and by the following May had
dropped below the million mark.
At the end of the year the number
Of pensioners had declined to ooS,-
AL, a net increase for the year Of
3,679.
The report shows the following
additional facts:
The annual value of the pension
roll on June 80, 1905. was $780,
74S.2e5. By the term annual
value" is meant the amount Of
money required to pay the pension
ers then on the roll for one year.

Columbia County Bar ASSOCIATE IN.

Pursuant to a call issued by Col.
John G.. Freeze, a meeting of the
members OF the Bar was held in the
Court Room on Saturday afternoon
at o'clock. The meeting was pre-
sided over by Col. Freeze, Presi.
dent of the Bar Association. There
were present also Capt. J. B. Robi-
son, Robert S. How'll, ]. H.
Maize, Geo. f. Elwell, N. U. Funk,
A. L. Fritz, William Chrisman, r.
R. John H. R. Stees, c. R. Weiss,
w. d. Beckley, A. w. Duy, H.
A. McKillip, H. Mont. Smith. and
c. c. Yetter. The circular calling
the meeting was read by Geo. E.
Elwell, secretary. Col. Freeze
stated more fully the objects of the
call. There are many things, he
said, in connection with the Bar,
that need attention. The lawyers
apparently have no social inter-
course. and no place to have it.
The law library is too small and
the adjoining waiting room is occu-
pied by the public when court is in
session. In the court room the
chairs inside the rail are usually
occupied by persons attracted only
by curiosity, and lawyers who
come in to transact business, can
either stand up or go out.
He also suggested that the rules
of the Bar Association be amended
as to the time Of its regular meet.
ings, and that committee be ap.
pointed to solicit all the lawyers in
the county who are not members
of the Bar Association, to join it.
Mr.. Small suggested that good
way to arouse new interest and
more brotherly feeling among the
lawyers would be to have an annual
banquet. He moved that a COM
mittee be appointed by the chair to
amend the rules, also committee
to solicit new members.
In regard to changes that might
be made in the arrangement of
rooms for the better convenience of
the Bar and the public, remarks
were made by Messrs. Robson,
Howell, John, Duy. Weiss. Nc
Killip, Smith. Chrisman and Elwell.
Mr.. John moved that the chairma
be authorized to consult with the
court and the commissioners con-
cerning any desirable changes to
be made. On motion it was voted
that the court be requested to make
al order excluding the general
public from inside the rail in the
Court room, and that the necessary
changes in the rail be asked for.
On motion the meeting adjourned
to meet on the first Monday Of
October, at o'clock p. nj. in the
court room.
