When the Roosevelts entered the White

picture taking therein. Nothing existed
in the way of a photograph OF Miss
Roosevelt except one as child of twelve,
and only an old print was extant of the

am buying all nice Winter varities of
apples. Each variety or kind must be
kept separate and nothing but hand pick
ed wanted. am loading cars here every
day, so you can bring them to me any
day in the week and put them in the car.
IT, you have crates which is the most
convenient for hauling and keeping sepa-
rate, bed the bottom of the wagon with
straw also the sides so the crates will be
packed solid, to carry,and put blankets
over the tops Of the apples to hold them
down and keep from bruising. 1t two
tiers of crates, it is well to put board or
or boards between them. If you fail to
have crates, can load them loose in wagon
box having straw bottom and sides and

for dividing, and blankets on top of the
apples alwaws, to keep from bruising.
Bruised or poor stock apples cannot be

Editor News Item.

! Editor News Item.
Dear Sir:-I have been much
impressed by the enumeration OF
two hundred and fifty-five (255) bills
upon which Sullivan County's Rep
resentative? failed to vote. After
reading over the whole list carefully,
I have asked myself the question,
was Sullivan County represented in
the last State Legislature" Or are
we any better off than wc would
have been had we srut no one to
Harrisburg?
l admit that his failure to vote on
so many and important issues have
puzzled me. The records show that
he was absent from the Capital only
one day; he was surely present then.
He was not detained at home because
of sickness or other justifiable eX-
cusc. He was in Harrisburg. Then
why did he not do that for which
he was elected? If any of the bills
were good, why in the name of all
that is reasonable did he not support
them? If bad, why did he not place
Sullivan County upon record as be-
ing opposed to them:
Can it be that he desired to dodge
issues which demanded attention ut
his hand? Can it be that he was in
f1uenced to neglect tn" duties he
swOre to perform: Can it be- that he
really did not understand what they
were all about and was afraid to go
on record either as favoring or OPP
posing them?
Whatever the reason, he cannot be
excused. We want no dOdger as
legislator! We want no man, who
under the easily detected disguise of
Scouten Reform is present to vote
for what his patron, Scouten, calls
the most iniquitous piece of legis-
lation ever enacted, but is absent
when 255 bills of Importance are be-
ing legislated upon.
What claim has he for reelection?
He stands condemned by the very
man, who, like the weather vane,
has now turned and works for his re-
election.
YI ,,In
want as representative a man with
enough intelligence to form an opin-
ion and enough backbone to assert
that opinion. We want a REPRE-
SENTATIVE!
In A. L. Dyer we have such man.
A man of intelligence, courage, and
business ability of the highest order.
A man, who, if elected, will go to
Harrisburg ready to assist in the
conduct of the affairs of State, with
the same judgement, integrity and
ability which have enabled him to
achieve success for himself.
Albert Dyer's word is as good as
his bond. His integrity unquestion-
ed, he stands the representative of
that push and pluck which has en-
abled so many young men of Sulli-
van county to achieve success.
Here's to the success of A. l..
Dyer!

Every County Receives More Than
It Pays Into the Treasury.
RESULT OF REPUBLICAN RULE

Figures From Official Sources Which
Cannot Be Denied-The Corporation
Taxes Help Every Township and
Village In the State Under the Re.
publican System of Finances.
Harrisburg, Oct. 14-Here Is a state
ment that is at once startling and
striking. 1t comes from official sources:
'There is not single county in
Pennsylvania which does not get di-
rectly back from the state treasury
more money than the state collects
from all its citizens. excepting so far
as some of them may be indirectly
taxed as stockholders in banks, rail-
roads and other corporations The
largest excess repaid to the counties
goes to the less wealthy ones having
the smallest proportion of property
subject to state tax In relation to their
population"
SOME REPUBLICAN FACTS.
This is a sample of what the Repub-
lican party has done and is doing for
the people of Pennsylvania. 1t is only
one reason why Judge Pennypacker
should be elected and the Democrats
defeated. because they left state debt
of $40. 100000 to be paid off by the other
fellows
The following figures are taken from
official records here in Harrisburg.
They are given for the purpose of ex-
hibiting more clearly the fact that the
people get back more than they pay
into the state treasury. How is it
done? The corporations pay the taxes.
What the individual citizen pays into
the state treasury Is for liquor license,
mercantile tax, tax on money at in
terest, etc.
The first column in the following ta-
BILE represents the total amount paid
into the state treasury from each
county from all sources, including per-
sonal property tax, tax on municipal
loans, collateral inheritances, fees of
public Offices, writs, wills, deeds, etc.
mercantile. liquor, billiard room, brok-
ers. peddlers and other kind of taxes.
The second column includes the money
returned to each county from the state
In the shape Of salary of judges, appro-
priations for hospitals and other insti-
tutions and for schools. The figures
are for the year 1900.

The Last State of Porto Rico is Worse
Than the First.

1t is rather Illuminating to be obliged to
confess that American rule is a blight upon
Porto Rico and far worse than Spanish rule
And yet that is what the Philadelphia Rec
ord does in an article which says:
Before the Spanish American war the
amounted in value to $1S,OO0OO0; during
the fiscal year ended June 80, 1901, the total
exports from the island were valued at
81, 1888, 900. During the latter year there
was decrease in the area under cultivation
OF $4,000 acres for coffee and 1885 acres for
tobacco. In the same year there were H..
635 deaths in the island from anemia alone,
indicating that ten in each thousand of the
Inhabitants of the island die annually from
insufficient nutrition-or, in plain English,
Of hunger. In 1900 the number OF deaths
was more than twice the number OF births
1854 and 2O,259, respectively. During the
three years since the American occupation
the deaths have exceeded the births by over
$4,000. AT this rate the island would be
entirely depopulated in 80 years time
These are not statements extracted from the
literature OF polemlcs, but every fact assert
ed can be found recorded by anybody who
will take the trouble TO look In the official
report OF the American administrators of
Porto Rico
"The intimate relation between the de-
cline Of the insulsr coffee industry and the
suffering of the Porto Ricans is apparent.
Our bameworthiness for the existing con
ditions is equally clear. The War Office
tariff for Cuba increased the duty on Porto
Rican coffee coming into the former island
from 80 55 to the prohibitiye rate of $12 80
in gold per 100 Kilograms. This was stab
under the fifth rib for the Cuban market, for
the coffee of Porto Rico had been worth
$3, 100000 per annum. BY bringing the de-
tendency within the Dngley tariff wall we
also made operative against Porto Ricsn
coffee the maximum tariffs of Continental
Europe, and thus excluded the product from
the markets of Spain and France. BY ex-
tending our cOastwise navigation laws to
the island we further complicated the situa-
ton by deprivlng the islanders OF comp.ti
tive freight rates aud reduced their facilities
for shipment to the United States in British
and Scandinavian bottoms"
