THE SMELTER SITUATION.

The public letter of A H Dan
forth, manager of the Rocky
Mountain smelter, published on
the first page of The TRIBUNE to-
day, should be read by every Flor
ence citizen, be he merchant, pro-
fessional or business man or la
borer. 1t shows plainly the posi-
tion in, which our local, independ-
ent smelter is placed by the ruina-
ton methods of the smelter trust
on the one side and the demands
of the Mill and Smeltermen's un-
ion on the other. 1t looks now as
if the matter has come to a show
down, and that unless the union
in question modifies its demands,
the city must suffer for it Mr.
Danforth gives figures and facts
in defining his position, that the
union should consider carefully
before taking stand for its de
mands Two of our larger institu-
tions have already been closed
since the first of the year. and it
has beer severe blow to business
For the good name of the town
for the sake of women and chill
dren+for the sake of every work
ing man in the city this calamity
now threatened must be everted,
No more payrolls can be cut off,
no more machinery shut down.
1t is time for the business men
of the city to use their good offices
in the, matter. Their interests are
at stake Let them take action in
the premises and do what they can
to prevent death blow to Flor
ence institutions.

A CRY OF DESPAIR.

The Re6ner nearly threw itself
into a fit yesterday in its efforts to
meet certain statements of The
TRIBUNE, but the whole thing was
a dismal failure. Like everyone
else the little editor sees the Union
party ranks thinning out by rea-
son of the conservative voters
coming out and standing for their
best interests by supporting the
Citizens ticket. He devotes a
whole column of valuable (?) space
to frantic appeal to union men
to stick together But it was an
effort born of despair, MS is evi-
denced by the rambling, incohe-
rent nature of his childish cries
He refers to issues SO old that they
are wearing whiskers as long as
those of the proverbial populist.
Why, his appeal was like the raw
ings of a maniac, and yet it svails
nothing. The union men of Flor
ence will not vote away their birth
right for a mess of pottage, and
they will not be influenced by the
rantings of man who carries a
unionAcard for revenue only.

A New Bank

A new bank has been organized in
Ridgway with the school children as
depositors, and the teachers of the bor-
ough schools as directors and officers.
1t is called the Ridgway School Savings
Bank. 1t is department which has
been tried in other schools for wears
with great success In Warren, this
State, the deposits now amount to
about $4,000.
The children are not only taught
business forms and practice by making
out their own checks and deposit slips
and having their own bank book or
card, but it trains them in habits of
economy. 1t makes clear the lesson
that to spend less than they receive is
prosperity, while to spend more is fl
nancial misery.-Ridgway Democrat

Sinnamahoning Liars Club.

The liars club held three sessions last
week. one in the store, one in Pap Blod-

There was some "hot ones" sprung
Hanscome told some good ones on his re-
turning from St Marys. He probably
met some fine members in the profession
as he said he made the trip without TAX
ing drink of the beverage intended to
make men happy. All members pres
ent doubted the story and he was fined the
usual amount. johnson said few
words on killing coons, but was called to
order by the chair. One member told of
catching two coons in a fare race, after
two dogs gave up the chase That men,
Der held the floor for an hour and eighty
minutes, without any dispute. Pap
Blodget and Beldin said they hadn't
told a lie this year. They were ordered
suspended ior thirty days and fined
seven cents each, which of course neither
of them could raise that amount. So a
collection was taken up and the amount
raised, after which business was again re-
sumed as though nothing had happened.
The name of K. l.. Locy was acted upon
and he was duly elected. He will ride
our goat at our next meeting
Pap Berfeld was ordered on the pen
sion list, as he is getting too old to keep
up with John Logue and Harve Smith.
The old man says his will is as good as
ever. The club agreed to allow him to
try his hand, in case the others should
get stuck. The club adjourned to meet
next week in Geo. Skaters wine room.

Letter to F. q. Judd & Co.
Emporium, Pa

Dear Sirs: Your business is, when a
house burns down, to give the owner
some money to build new one. 1t is
a good business. Queer that the world
got on so long without it.
We paint the one that burnt down
and the new one too. What is better,
we paint the houses that don't burn
down.
You insure the houses that burn; we
insure the houses that don't. You
have the ashes and smoke; all the
houses are ours.
We paint lead and zinc; Devoe. We
sell the paint to painters; we don't
paint.
Lead and oil is the old-fashion paint
Devoe is zinc ground in with the lead
and linseed oil-same proportions as
used by U. S. Governments: the best
paint in the world; and the cheapest
because the work is all done by ma
chinery.
Nobody wants poor paint; there's
lots of it, though, in the world.
Yours truly,
10 F. W DEvoE & Co.

Hiss Howell Appears at Scranton to
Refute the Allegation that
She Is Insane

Scranton, Pa. Jan. 26 Evidence
tending to prove that Miss Jennie
Howell is insane, as is alleged by her
brother, Banker Franklin Howell, was
taken to-day here before Commissioner
y. r. Pitcher and jury of six. Miss
Howell appeared in court accompanied
by her white-haired fiance, Edward
Dean, whom she proposes to marry
and share her quarter of a million dol
lars with despite the protests of her
family and friends.
Dr. J. T. Alderman, of Asbury Park,
was the first witness. He attended
Miss Howell during the summer of 1899
at Asbury Park, and had consultation
with the late DR.. Da Costa, of Phila-
delphia, over Miss Howell's case. They
concluded, he says, that she was suffer-
ing from chorea, or st. Vitus dance,
and that she was mentally affected.
On cross-examination DIR. Ackerman
was shown a check of S651 which he
received from Miss Howell in payment
of medical services, and Attorney
Newcomb asked him to explain how he
had permitted himself to take money
from person whom he considered
mentally unbalanced. The doctor an
swered that he believed he had sent his
bill to Miss Howell in care of her
brother. The same question was put
to DIR. Leet.
Owing to the illness of Franklin
Howell the date for the next hearing
was not set
Edward Dean was formerly resi-
dent of Emporium and will be remem-
bered by many of our citizens.
Miss Howell and Dean, accompanied
by maid, left the city together Jan. 29,
for Philadelphia, and it is supposed
they are bound for New Jersey or Del
aware to be married.
