RELATING TO LICENSES
Assistant Solicitor Submits Opinion to
District Commissioners.

The District Commissioners received this
afternoon from Assistant City Solicitor Ar
thur H. OConnor an opinion on the COM
munication Of the superintendent of insur-
ance. dated May 8, 1902, relating to the
licenses issued from January l, to May /,
1902, to Solicitors and brokers'" Mr.
OConnor says:
Under date Of January 80, 1902, the
superintendent of insurance issued his rui-
Ing No. 1, in re. Licenses. Subdivision six
Of that ruling, entitled Solicitors license
reads as follows: "a solicitor must be en-
ployed in some capacity by company or
Its principal agent. License privilege Is
limited to one company only, and the name
of the company must be embodied in the
license; fee to be paid by the solicitor, S.
Il understand that prior to May /, 1907,
when certain applications for solicitors
licenses were made to the superintendent OF
insurance, he refused to issue, in some
cases, the solicitors license upon the ground
that the applicants chief employment was
not that of insurance; that thereupon be-
Ing refused solicitors license, certain ap-
plicants took out brokers' license" tor
which the fees were much greater than
that of solicitor.
Upon reconsideration of this matter an
opinion was rendered by the city solicitor
that such a person was entitled to the
solicitors license, and that, notwi.h-
standing the fact that the applicant for a
license might not be regularly employed by
the company, he was entitled to such q
license II employed at all by the insurance
company.
IT take 1t to be a fact that the person
who, under these circumstances, after hav-
ing applied for solicitors license took
out a brokers' license would not have
done so but for the construction formerI,
placed upon ruling No. 1. This does not
alter the fact, however, that he procured a
brokers' license, and such a license having
been issued to him he was obliged to pay
the license fee prescribed by the statute for
a brokers' license. He might have refused
to take out a brokers' license and insisted
upon his right to that of solicitor, and
probably could have enforced that right, II
necessary. in a court; but having taken out
brokers' license he has all the powers of a
broken under that license, and whether ne
desired to exercise all those powers or not
he could not properly have such license
upon any other fee than that prescribed by
the statue.
st am therefore of the opinion that no
fees can be refunded under the circum-
stances

SO Cents a Day Enough for a
Common LabOrcr.

This statement is now confronting
Chas. III. Dickerman, the democratic
aspriant to Congress. He is now
known to have possibly changed his
mind on this subject at the eleventh
hour. In cases of this kind it is no
uncommon experience for candidates
thus opposed to labor to get dumped
at the last minute. This case of
Eighty nine Cents VS. Eleven Hours
Hard Labor, will be appealed to a
higher tribunal and will be called
for trial during the coming fall.
Those in position to judge are san
guine that the outcome will be ex-
tremely humilating to Mr.. Dicker-
man when the sealed verdict is rem
dered i'm November.

Trevorton, Pa. Sept. pa dem
ocratic mass meeting was held last
evening. Some speeches were made
and some whooping for the ticket
was done.
But the most significant thing that
was done was the endorsement of
Hon. Fred. A. Godcharles for Con-
gress. Mr.. Godcharles is not to be
on the ticket usually voted by these
citizens but they know Il man who
will work work in their interests
when they see him, and they have
seen Mr.. GOdcharles in the State
Legislature, and he was not found
skulking out of his duty there. Nov,
it can be confidently predicted that
he will do his duty if placed in a
higher position where there is great
er opportunity for good work for the
interests of our people.

How many of our readers believe
C. II. Dickerman, if elected to Con-
gress, will aid in restricting the
Trusts? He is one of number of
milliOnaires atthe head of the Amer
lean Car Trust. He has several near
relatives holding high salaried offices
in this Trust. Is it not reasonable
to suppose that he will first look to
the interests of his family and his
own wealth. The trust problem is
sure to come before the next Congress
for proper adjustment, and the Trust
magnates are striving for seat in
that body.
Hon. Fred. A. GOdcharles is in no
way connected with a trust. He is
openly opposed to trusts and will
support President Roosevelt in all
his measures i'm restricting this evil.
These are the plain facts for you to
deliberate upon. Which one of these
men do you prefer to represent you
i'm Congress? Answer at the polls

w. *. Lord who has been named
for Congress Short term) is one of
Pennsylvania most successful busi-
ness men. He has succeeded in life
through his own thrift and energy
and his own unerring judgement,
and few men will bring to the posi-
ton more practical knowledge of
the practical side of the labor and
business interests of the United
States. More men of business ex-
perience and less of those of the
Society and Trust Tribe in the Halls
of Congress will be more to the in
terests of Americans in general.
Vote for w. X. Lord, no one can
more consciensciously represent the
interests of his constituents.
ScOuten answers for Rogers action
in voting against the measure to pre-
vent the pollution of streams, by say
ing that the bill would be obnoxious
to cities, and that itwould create ad-
ional officers. Let us stop and think
for a minute. Rogers was sent to
Harrisburg to represent Sullivan
County and her interests. If he hon
estly was opposedto the bill because
new offices We're created why did he
vote Cor the bill to create more Off
c or the House of Representa-
=. ,eS.
Consistency is a jewel. 1t may be
he voted i'm the interest of the cities
for the same reason he favored the
Rapid Transit bill. But the fact re-
mains that on one of the most inn
portant bills affecting Sullivan Coun-
ty, he voted in favor of the city and
against the country interests. We
db not feel sure what the effect would
have been on the cities if they were
made to burn, disinfect or otherwise
dispose Of their sewerage, but we do
know what effect it would have had
on Sullivan County. 1t would have
prevented the pollution of our
streams by the filth consisting of de-
composed flesh, hair etc. which now
flows into our streams unchecked
from every tannery in the county.
1t would have caused the Union
Tanning Co. to build reservoirs
where this filth could be disinfected
before running in our streams. Per-
haps such reservoirs would have cost
5000 each, great expense to that
corporation, but the result would
have been that the health of the peo-
pie and the lives of the fish would
have been preserved. We can't al
low Rogers and Scouten to wriggle
out of this vote. Rogers cd not
vote against the bill for fear more
officials, or for fear that Reat ,g or
NOrristOwn could not take of
themselves. He voted for it L. ause
he was anxious to please a power
ful corporation althoug he knew
that his vote was strictly against the
well being and desires of every
farmer in Sullivan County. And in
his next issue will ScOuten tell who
Rogers saw when he left the House
when the 3rd amendment to the
Rapid Transit bill was being consid-
, cred. Will he tell us what argu-
ments were used to make Rogers
change his vote, and whether he
honestly thinks that a Member of
Assembly who changes his mind on
a "boodle" bill and afterwards votes
along with the "boOdlers" is safe
man to represent Sullivan County.

FROM COAL PIT
TO CONGRESS.
William X. Lord, the Republi-
can Nominee for Congress
BEGAN Life as a Slate Picker.

VIM. X. Lord whose portrait ap-
pears between these lines, was NOM
inatcG hy the Republicans of the Six
teenth District to fill the uneXpired
term of Rufus X. Polk in Congress,
stands more markedly than any 9TH
er man in this district, perhaps, for
the rise of the workingman.
Born in Schuylkill County thirty
eight years ago, his early life was
spent between the coal breakers,
where, as IA slate picker he began to
learn the value of hard earned dol
lar and the public schools, where he
gathered permanently that sort of
last ing education which has made a
success of so many lowly-born Amer
leans.
Ever since those days he has been
climbing. He moved up the ranks
of colliery hands until he became
clerk. Then he opened small store
which has grown to be the leading
store of the town, while its owner
takes his seat at the directors table
of the Guarantee Trust Company and
is present at the meetings of the
Board of Trade in his native town.
Mr.. Lord is a man of more than
the usual intellectual power. He is
an omniverous reader, forcible and
ready speaker and would go to his
new work thoroughly well versed in
the past doings and future plans of
the national Congress.
