In the course of his address, Governor

with a city and get 1t by paying the price.
This assumes that the city fathers pocket
the price. OF course, if the contract Is for

our contract that we can pull millions out

not business. 1t is kind of lottery sys-
tenn. Almost everybody knows it and adj
mits it. We condemn 1t in public and re-
sort TO IL in private.
Speculation seems to have put on the
mask of business in the United States. The
apparent rights OF speculation nave IN
creased taxation, but such rights are more
apparent than real. The excessive rate of
fare and freight transportation caused by
speculation are slowly declining the earn

crippling transportation, because excess re-

what Lincoln said You can find what he
said in his first annual message And this
message can be found in the Congressional
Globe of 1861 and 1863. This is what he said:
Labor is prior to and Independent of cap
ital. Capital is only the fruit of labor.
Capital could never have existed If labor
had not first existed. Labor is the superior
of capital and deserves much the higher
consideration
II do not know of better way to keep
fresh the memory of the iliustrious dead
than to quote the words that pointed to
his work. | know of no other way of keep
ing a party alive than doing the work of
the party. L know of no other way of keep
ing capital alive than by keeping labor
alive. The true words of 4 true man live
forever. The words OF 1Se1 are true to-day.
The words live. The work lives. If the
work is shrked. the party dies. If Lin
coins words are sacred. then the work is
sacred. Let US not live in the mere fame
of the word and work of Lincoln. 1t is a
nobler way TO continue that work.

According to the Alaska Miner. a
gentleman who has just escaped
from the Klondike region, gives the
following account of some things
that happened there: "a man told
me, who had wintered up there
seven years, that it was So cold in
January that they froze the flames
OF their candles and sold them for
strawberries. He said they kept
their fires over night by putting
them cut in the air and letting them
freeze, and then thawed them out
in the morning. He said he had
seen four men die of collie from
eating whisky that was frozen so
hard 1t wouldn't thaw inside of
them. He said the cows gave ice
cream till they froze to death. He
said he knew a clerk in q hotel on
the Yukon that got rich selling the
diamonds he wore, said diamonds
being nothing on earth but ice crys-
tails that didn't thaw until after the
clerk got out of the country. He
said be had seen man fall off the
root OF barn and freeze so stiff
before he lit that he broke in two
when be hit the ground. He said
be had seen smoke freeze in a
chimney till the fire wouldn't draw.
and be knew of one case where
the smoke froze after it got 100
feet up and fell back on the house,
knocking hole in the roof big
enough to drive q yoke of steers
through. He said the reason that
nights were so long in that country
Was that the dark got froze so hard
the daylight couldn't thaw it's way
through in less than six months"

MADE UP M MAINE.


"Oxford County, Maine, turns
out nearly all the spools on which
the sewing thread of this country
is wound" said wholesale dealer
in such articles. The spools are
made from white birch timber, and
they are produced in Oxford County
There are many other parts of West.
ern Maine also where the industry
is important. There are numerous
saw mills in that part of the State
which are kept busy all the year
round saving white birch logs into
strips four feet long, and from one
to two inches wide, and of the same
thickness. These strips are sent
to the spool factories, where they
are quickly worked into spools by
the most ingenious labor-saving
machinery.
"The strips of white birch are
fed into one machine, and they are
not touched, in fact, are hardly seen
again, until the spools, all finished
for market, except polishing, drop
out by the bushel from another
machine several rods away from
where the strips started in. The
spools get their gloss by being rap
idly revolved in barrels, turned by
machinery, the polishing resulting
from the contact of the spools in
the barrel.
sIn the backwoods villages of
Oxford County one sees scarcely
any other industry but spool-mak-
ing, and every person in the neigh
borhood is in some way interested
in the business. The factories have
been eating into the Maine birch
forests for years, butthere still seems
to be enough of the timber left to
feed the machinery for many years
to come. Hundreds of thousands
of feet of logs are cut and sawed
into spool timber annually.
"Shoe-peg factories are also an
important branch of business o nee
peculiar to Maine, although it has
of late been followed to some extent
in other Eastern States, and is
spreading to the hardwood forests
of Northern Pennsylvania. Maple
is used largely in the manufacture
of shoe pegs, although white birch
is used at some factories. Shoe
pegs are sold by the bushel, and
are worth all the way from IS cents
to 81 a bushel, according to quality.
More than $4,000 was received
by Maine shoe-peg factories last
year for goods.
A curious and profitable business
has grown up in the Maine woods,
near the sawmills, in the utilizing
OF the immense quantities of saw
dust by compression. Thousands
of tons of this waste material are
bought for mere nothing, and are
pressed into compact blocks and
bales, and in this form are finding
a ready market for kindling and
fuel in Eastern Cities"

The Scranton tribune. [volume] (Scranton, Pa.) 1891-1910, 1897-05-29
AS to Nay Aug Park.

The proposition to submit to a vote
the question of bonding the city in
the sum of 1000 for the purpose of i'm
proving Nay Aug park is one upon
which it is clearly desirable that affir-
native action be taken, sooner or lat
er. 1t is possible that the prospects
of a popular majority in favor of park
improvements would be brighter at a
later time than next February, however.
"a time when the memory of the eX-
piring depression in business would be
less keen. In normal times we believe
the bonding proposition would win cas-
lily. But as times have been during the
past two or three years, the spirit of
economy might be sufficient to cause
the measures defeat, which would be
in every respect unfortunate.
The need of a suitable public park
has long been felt in this city, and the
reasons why one should be provided
are familiar to all. In the Nay Aug
tract the city has secured by far the
most picturesque and accessible terri
tory which is at present available for
park purposes. To be sure, it is not
central in location; but thanks totrolley
and boulevard connections it can be
reached conveniently by the mass of
citizens as could any other area of sim
liar dimensions anywhere within the
city limits. To make it a park in
reality, however, and to. equip it as
parks and play grounds are equipped
in other cities will necessitate the ex.
penditure of a considerable sum OF
money, The best estimate offered by
the park commission, after careful con.
sultation with experts, contemplates
the outlay of 100000. In comparison
with the cost of parks in most cities o.
corresponding size this estimate il
modest and it has also the advantag,
of being strictly net.
If the present generation is to en-
JOY the advantages of Nay Aug parl
action for its suitable improvement
will need to be taken without unnec
essary delay. The bonding PROPOSE
tion is the quickest and easiest method
and the purpose would clearly warran
the expense.
