TENER SUES EDITOR.

BY his suit for libel against
the editor of the SlatingtOn
Star Govcrnor-elect Tener is
teaching the newspaper men of
the state To be more conservative
and decent during political cam
paigns.
MIR. Tener has let il be known
that he would have taken no no.
tice of the attacks of Editor Sell
but for the fact that he indulged
in gross abuse and libel the morn
ing after election. No man would
tolerate billingsgate of that char
acter so decision was reached
to treat this journalistic fire-eater
to IA very much needed lesson.
In doing this Mr.. Tener is
really doing "a service to the Ie-
gitimate newspaper interests of
the state. The libeler is re-
Election upon the properly con-
Quoted newspapers of any COM
munity.-FinanCial Review.
The esteemed proprietor of
THE WAYNE INDEPENDENT,
BROTHER BENJAMIN FRANKLIN
HAINES, in commenting upon this
suit, says editorially, that success
full candidates rarely carry any of
their political GRIEVANCES beyond
election day" And if MIR. Tener
only had political grievances" we
are certain that he would be the
first one TO drop any thought of in
stituting posD-electiOn suits. But
there is a vast difference between
grievances" and ISLANDER" We
doubt, if in the entire history of the
Commonwealth, any candidate has
been so villified, or held up to such
public scorn, as has GovernOr-elect
Tener. Is it no longer possible for
man to run for any public office,
without having the domains of his
family and private life entered, with
out being accused of breaking all
the commandments i'm the DecaIOgue? A?
We submit, that If our worthy
BROTHER BENJAMIN FRANKLIN
HAINES had been nominated for
Mayor of HOnesdale and had been
compelled to undergo one one-hun-
dredth part of the amount of vitu-
peratiOn and abuse that was heaped
upon MIR. Tener, he, too, would have
felt rather inclined to punish some
of the malefactors. When some of
the ministers of the State, take their
texts from, and read their sermons
out of the ''yellOw Journals" it is
high time that both reckless editors
and hOtheaded clergy be taught a
salutary lesson.

many be voted at any time up to the
last day of the contest. In fact, it Is
the Chief knew him not. 1t has
been well to hold back a large per
cent. OF your vote coupons Then
no one knows how many votes you
have and you are less likely to have
someone who knows how you stand
step in at the last and, by paying
for great many subscriptions, Sc
cure the prize you desire. If you
hold a part of your votes back, no
one can do this. They will not know
how many are necessary to win, and
will not take chances on spending
money for nothing.
The ballots printed in THE .ITI-
ZEN are good if voted within one
week from the time printed. The
date on which they expire is on the

is expired the ballot will not be

EMBRYONIC HORSE THIEVES.
Three Forest City Boys Run Away
With Eugene Lees Team.
Sraciol to TUE CITIZEN

Special to THE CITIZEN.
While Telephone Lineman Eugene
Lee was fixing a telephone in Brook
dale, North Clinton, near Forest
City, Monday afternoon, November
2S, he hitched his horse by the side
of the road. Unknown to him three
boys from twelve to fifteen years of
age united the horse, climbed into
the buggy, and drove madly down
the road. AS soon as Mr.. Lee dis
covered his loss he telephoned the
news all over the county, and asked
people to watch out for the missing
team. The boys went to Aldenville,
thence southwark on the Prompton
road. BY generous use of the tele-
phone, Mr.. Lee succeeded in head
ing them off at E. X. Curtis farm,
Prompton Road. The horse was
stopped, the boys jumped out of the
wagon, and took French leave. L..
S. Partridge happened along with
his rig and gave chase up and down
the road. Two of the boys took it,
across the hills. The third one was
captured, and hoodwinked into CIV
ing the other two boys away. All
three, who are Polish boys living
in Forest CITY, were nnally captur-
ed. The parents of the boys were
seen, and settlement effected. Mr..
Lee had his overcoat in the wagon.
The boys took it and hid it along
side the road behind the fence, in
tending to come and get it later.
Partridge made the boys tell where
it as and got it.
Joey" Welch, who saw the boys
unite the horse, gave chase and ran
bareheaded down the road, Ito beat
ALL" to catch the boys, two of whom
carried rifles, and overlook them,
but was unable to effect their cap
ture.
