FROM THE FIRST WARD.

At meeting of the Curb Stone Club
we were discussing the enormous ia
talty and unnecessary destruction of
human life by the introduction of the
trolley system i'll the United States,
when | suggested that society would
be better off if the trolley had never
been invented. declared TINT the
canal was benefactor to the human
race, giving employment to thousands
of men before the steam and electric
roads crowded the canal boats to shore,
ms ii divided the profits amongst the
common people, instead of sweeping
all the profits into the pockets of mil
lionaire stock owners. | further ar
gued that fatalities would not be one
per cent of what they are now had we
| always chung to the old canal boat.
Then ! called their attention to the
improbability Of canal boat ever be
| coming unmanageable or cutting Il
man in two even if il did not run oven
him in tunnel or bump his head
against bridge.
NV last remark brought the chair
man to his feet and my argument came
to m abrupt close by one of the mem
bers calling me fool. But say, the
first time you hear of canal boat cut
ting man in two and manglinS him
like n yaller dorg after passing through
n bologna sausage factory, let me
know of the event, will you?
| have always advocated light and
truth and knowledge and information
to the fullest extent, but there are
subjects and things and conditions
upon which it is impossible for the
light to fall, and with the intervening
uncertainty hiding the future, we can
sit down and take n hatful of inky
darkness and paint the most lovely
and hopeful pictures ever hung on the
walls of human existence fascinating.
Like game Of poker we sit down to
must lose, but the hope that we may
win cheers ne on and we stake our
money day after day and find pleasure
and the hope Of profit with every
shuttle Of the cards.
Cropping in the dark makes life an
endless novelty and the hope Of find
ing dollars little farther on makes
us lose our half dollars and dimes with
more cheerfulness and courage. But
if we knew in the beginning that our
losses would continue and TINT our
little success would bring us little JOY
and comfort we would throw down our
hands, kick the table over and go out
in tho back yard aud cry down the
rain barrel like homesck boy bound
out tie a skinilint farmer to work for
his board and keep. Just think if the
great number of men in politics who
shed their Doodle upon friendly con
stituent, if the light fell upon the clear
atmosphere, they could see themselves
with badly pulled legs and a minority
vote, crawling home after the election
through dark alley with a feeling Of
revenge in their hearts and only "A few
poker chips and an over worked cork
screw in their pocket. 1t is shrouded
in darkness and they go right on she'd
ding American Doodle up to the last
moment the polls are open and then
go home to hear their wives say 81

noramus, but your head is too thick
to drive common sense into it with
anything lighter than n ten pound
base ball bat.

Owing to rumor started in Tren-
ton last week to the effect that Carrie
Nation had asked for supporters in
her travels, five young men of that
city started on Thursday to aid her. A
wager of five hundred dollars was put
up by some of their friends that they
could not reach Scranton in time to
Join her forces and it was taken up by
them. The party, consisting of Clar-
ence II. Slack, Arthur Downes, Fred
Hurschler, Osborne Hunt aud Leon
Hrsch, stopped in this city over Fri
day night last on their walk to Scran-
ton. The conditions made were
rather severe, as all they were allowed
to take with them was fifty cents
apiece, phonograph, camera and a
fan. Later we learned that the party
was stranded at Stockton and are still
there anxiously waiting for help from
home

AMERICAN BOOKS.
Our Exports Continue to Increase In
Spite of the Tariff.

Our Exports Continue to Increase In
Spite of the Tariff.
Many have wondered why the free
contained so many protests against
the tariff on books, "a duty on that
intellectual commerce which most in
teiligent men would like to see as free
as practicable" The following figures
show great cause for free trade alarm
Our exports of books, ETC., in 1899 were
valued at $2,70O,OOO, and for last year
they were $4,36400O. On the other
hand, the value of our imports for
1899 was less than 81 100000 and for
1902 81, 1904 900. In other words, our
imports increased by about II per cent
and our exports by nearly $50 per cent,
or, while in 1899 our exports were not
twice our imports, they are now more
than two and half times our imports.
Whether the book trust, that some
of our larger retail stores have tried to
break, Is as a trust guilty of selling
books to foreigners cheaper than to
Americans we do not know personally,
and they advertise too much to allow
our free trade contemporaries to tell
us, but we do know that any one can
buy Harper's or other 80 cent maga-
zine In London for 1S cents, "a shilling
(the standard price,, with threepence
off"
The gain to American labor, ma
terials and profits of over four and a
third million dollars paid by foreigners
in one year makes most of the men
who know they are intelligent because
they have read that only free traders
are intelligent thoroughly indignant,
and we shall soon hear that our print
ers and bookbinders do not require
any further projections; that all of this
labor and profit goes solely to the pub
Usher. 1t is interesting in this connec-
ton to see that the New York Times,
which objected few weeks since to
protection that it raised the price of
| raw materials and lowered the price
| Of finished products, thus injuring the
! manufacturers. assigns our success In
exporting books Ito the lower price of
paper in the United States as we'll as
to the more economical processes of
manufacture. And this lower price of
paper in the United States is in spite
of a grinding duty on paper and paper
stock, the import of which most in
telligent men would like to see as free
rs practicable, though they know that
paper is now sold at less price per
pound than the profit gained by paper
| makers in free trade times.
