Joseph A. Freindel for BURGESS.

When the delegates to the Borough
Convention nominated Joseph A.
Freindel for Burgess, they choose one
who is in every way qualified to fill the
office, having served on the council for
six years. Many times as chairman of
its most important committees, placing
him in position to thoroughly under
stand and know the needs of the bor-
ough. He has all the courage and abil-
ity to enforce its laws. Mr.. Freindel,
by his energy and interest in Borough
matters, caused his colleagues to make
him the president of the council year
ago, where he served faithfully and
honestly Citizen you will make no
mistake by electing him. Having
known Joe for about eighteen years, [
think that 1 can Judge MIN impartially.
Yours Respectfully,
CITIZEN.

Independent Candidate

Augustus f. Nelson has filed nomi-
nation papers for school director in the
Middle Ward, in opposition to 7. X.
Hockey, whose name appears on
both the Republican and Democratic
tickets. Gus" is an energ etic young
man and will cause Mr.. Hockey to get
busy to save his scalp. This is the
first time Mr.. Nelson has asked our
citizens to support him for any office
and bases his claim upon the fact that
he should have received the Repub-
lican nomination but by some error
was not nominated by his supporters.
Mr. Nelson is good citizen, a reliable
Republican, a property owner and
competent for the position. The
voters will decide.

South Compapv


j. @ Rockwel's New Sunny South
Company, which is billed to appear in
the Emporium Opera House, Wednes-
day. evening, February 10TH, is one of
the recognized colored attraction of
the day. 1t is known from coast to coast
and each year its popularity increases.
1t is annouced by the management that
this seasons Offering is entirely new,
modern, highclass, refined and up-to
date to the minute; nothing will be
said nor done to offend the most fastid-
ions lady in the land. The organiza-
tion recently appeared in Batavia, N.
Y, and The Daily News of that city,
dated January 21st, said: There may
be better colored shows than j. Q.
Rockwelps New Sunny South Com
pany on the road, but if there are they
have never come Batavia way. 1t was
the best and most pleasing perform
anbe of its kind ever seen in this city.
Every seat in the house was sold and
hundreds were turned away. From
the first to the last, the stunts, as varied
as they are excellent, are rendered
with vim that cannot help but put
the audience in good humor. AT any
rate the large audience gave every evil
dence of having considerable pleasure
and amusement. The many good
features are too numerous to detail, ,suf-
flee to say that there was not a poor
turn on the programme and every
thing was clean and wholel ome." The
organization is accompanied by high
class solo concert band and orchestra.
The band will head the "Koontown''
parade, which takes place at noon.

important Measure.

We have before US a copy of the new
proposed school law recently intro
duhed in the Legislature but have not
found time to read the same carefully
to form an opinion. This measure will
keep the committee on education
of which Hon. Josiah Howard is chair
man, very busy this session. The bill
was framed by commission appoined
for that purpose. We doubt very
much if it applies to the rural counties
with any improvement over the
present law.

HEARING IN PANAMA
 LIBEL CASE

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, October 12.- The hearing in the sO-called Panama li- bel case, in which Delevan Smith and Charles R. Williams of this city are defendants, was called in the federal court today, Judge Anderson presiding The hearing is to determine whether the defendants are to be. removed to the District of Columbia for trial.
 The prosecution of MT. Smith and Mr Williams grew out of the publication in the Indianapolis News, of which they are the joint owners, of certain articles and editorials in regard to the purchase by the United States of the Panama canal property. Offense at these articles was taken by Theodore Roosevelt, Douglas Robinson and William Nelson Cromwell, of New York; Charles P. Taft of Cincinnati, and others. The matter was placed before the federal grand jury at Washington, with the de mand for indictments against Mir. Smith and Mir. Williams. Since the papers containing the articles in question had circulated in Washington, it was con tended by the government that this constituted publication in the District of Columbia, and that the offense, if there was an offense, was indictable un- der the federal law in the District of Columbia. Indictments were returned under the federal statute, and as neith- CT of the defendants was a resident of the District of Columbia, it became necessary for the government to seek to remove them to the District of Co lumbia for trial. It is in regard to this phase of the case that the present hear ing is held.
