talk here recently by people from the rural
dietricts who have had business In the state
ohces over the question OF the numerous holi-

papers published In some OF the small country
towns have taken up the matter. and 1t Is evil
dent that the large cities also are becoming
interested. The Saturday half-holiday is the
one mostly discussed. and the sentiment Is
freely expressed that 1t has worked incon-

SURVEYING FOR A TUNNEL.
Subterranean Railway from Way
mart to Edgerton Colliery.

The corps of a dozen surveyors
spoken of in this column the other day
as being engaged on the Moosics for
the Delaware and Hudson company is
doing preliminary work in connection
with the proposed tunnel which has
been so much talked about.
1t has been the general supposition
that if the mountain between here and
Waymart were ever tunneled one open
ing would be made at some point be-
tween Carbondale and Forest City.
The probabilities are, however, that
the subterranean railway will run from
Waymart in a southwesterly direction
for about one mile and one half to a
point to be reached via the ravine
which leads to the Edgerton colliery
east of Mayfield. The surveyors were
working in that vicinity Saturday and
while this route has been little thought
of outside Of railroad circles, it is con-
sidered one of the most feasible.
The engineers are accommodating data
which will be used by the company
officials in deciding upon the location.
Figures pertaining TO half a dozen
routes may be submitted.
Heretofore all has been guess work
but present indications point strongly
to a tunnel.

Cluded in our deliberations, there are
reasons to ask if the welfare of nations
does not demand the limitation of pro-
gressive armaments. But it is for the
governments to decide in the interest of
their respective countries what action to
take in this direction. We are sure that
we are going to examine these questions
in an earnest spirit of sincere concilia-
tion and so go in the ways which lead
to the consummation of peace. Thus we
will do u useful work, for which future
generations will be grateful to the sover-
