"Peter, would You stay here all

Peter was not entirely oblivious

his head, and finally said:

Susan went away and removed

his hammer and nails and went to
work, and before noon he had fixed
a weather strip upon the door; had
fixed the pump and the mop; had
frightened the chamber windows;
besides having done various other
things that were needful. And in
the afternoon, spurred up by the
accomplishments of the morning,
he sought work on his own ac-

The Valve oil Farms.

The farms of Pennsylvania are
worth almost $1,000, 100000, or a
good deal more than the funded
debt of the nation. This shows an
increase of $500, 100000. There has
been an increase in value in every
class of agricultural land, and it has
so happened in all these years crops
have been uniformly good. The in
telesting statement of the census
bureau is that this increase is due al
most entirely to the improved meth
ods pursued by the farmers, better
methods of plowing and seeding,
better fertiIizing and more econom-
ic use of all that Il farm produces.
The whole wealth of the United
States in 1850 was estimated at only
$40, 900, 100000. The wealth OF
Pennsylvania today far exceeds that
figure.

cry inspectors preparatory to begin
ming the work of public spraying
Some thirty expert sprayers will he
in Harrisburg to compare notes and

SamueI's Reply to Granse Letter.

DR.. Samuel recently received a
letter purp0rting to come by author
ity and direction Of the Grange. He
however ascertained that the Grange
had nothing to do officially with
sending it. The letter accused the
Doctor of being an agent to the So
called State machine. Charged him
with voting against certain Roose
welt measures and told him whole
lot of things that were false to the
Congressional Record, This letter of
considerable length was published
in the Sunbury News along with
the following reply from Mr.. Sam
uel:
Mount Carmel, Pa, Oct. 20, '06.
Mr.. j. S. Campbell,
Mr.. c. III. Dildine,
Rohrsburg, Pa.
Dear Sirs:
Although your letter of Oct. 9th
bears no evidence that it came to me
by any direction of any Grange, or
that you We're authorized in your
official capacity to address the inter-
rogatlOns to me, | recognize the
right of any constituent of mine to
write upon any questions of interest,
either to him or the community at
large; this consideration has prompt
ed me to answer your questions at
length
| During my course in Congress
have acted on all legislation, as in
my judgment, seemed for the best
interests of my constituents and the
country, and without being subserv-
lent to any man; this course | shall
continue.
=. i did not refuse to sign a
rail- for caucus to consider the rate
bill, but on the contrary was in favor
Of and voted for the rate-bill.
3. My votes in favor of the pure
food law and the meat inspection
bill show my position on those ques-
tions.
4. Ny duties as a Congressman
required my attendance at Wash
ington and l did not deem it right
nor proper to neglect them in order
to be in Harrisburg to lobby either
for or against the passage of any res
olutions by the legislature.
5. | did not speak or vote against
parcels post; the only reference in
my speech to parcels post was the
part of the Postmaster Generals re-
port commencing the merging of
third and fourth class mail matter;
you are respectfully referred to that
part Of The report of the Postmaster
General.
6. . did not vote for the repeal
of the eight hour law in the Panama
canal.
l. In any Of my official acts,
have faithfully represented my con-
stituents, and in so doing have sup
ported the policies of President
Roosevelt, believing his policies to
for the best interests of my constitu-
ents, as well as the country at large.
My votes and action on all legisla-
ton are contained in the Congress
sional Record, which is the official
report of all legislation in Congress,
to which you are respectfully re-
ferred.
Yours truly,

Exercise the Rights You Fight
For.

Ols
If any political party, or any 9TH
er organization should start a move
ment to disfranchise any class of
men, there would be almost a revo-
luton. The men who were denied
the right to vote would fight for
their rights, and they would be just
fed. But the rights of citizenship
which men fight for, they will not
exercise. There are thousands of
men in this country who will not go
to the polls on election day without
importantly, and some who will be
deaf to all argument and importuni-
ty. They are so well satisfied with
the business conditions in the coun-
try, that they will give all their
time to their business affairs, and
leave to Others the public duties of
protecting prosperous conditions.
The men who so neglected their
public duties in 1892 We're the first
to complain of the result of their
neglect, and the first to become pan
ic-stricker at the threat of change.
1t is incumbent upon every business
man, every farmer, and every wage
Garner, TO join together for their
common defense. They all have
an equal interest in the mainte
nance of prosperous conditions. They
have all beensbenefitted by the re-
turn of Republican policies, and
they can continue prosperity by
continuing the policies which
brought prosperity.
For the last forty years the Re
publican party has only been an
other name for the majority of the
people. The majority believes in
policies because they
have'prospered under those policies.
In 1890, and in 1892, the majority
did not vote and the minority elect
ed Democratic House and then a
President. The Repub-
Iicans who stayed at home on elec
ton day v ere responsible for those
results. They saved On hours time,
which wGuId have been needed to
east their votes, and they lost a
years business, effort and profit.
They followed the rule of saving at
the spiggot and wasting at the bung
hole.
The situation today is like that in
1890. The prosperity of the whole
people is unrivaled. 1t can be con-
Iinued, but half dozen Republi-
cans who may stay at home in each
precinct may give the election to the
and make the Goth Con-
gress Democratic.
No man who believes in the Roos-
evelt Administration has any right
to neglect his duty on election day.
The President has the power to call
every able-b bodied man into the
army to fight if need be. They
ought to vote 30 maintain their own
business prosperity. Every stay-at-
home is drone in the public hive.
Let every man exercise the right he
would fight for, if there were an at
tempt to take 1t from him. VOTE
FOR DIR. SAMUEL,4 YOUR
CANDIDATE FOR CONGRESS.

Teddy Roosevelt hunting bears ur
around Jamison City! Well not
that exactly, but one of the bear
dogs which won world wide fame
two years ago by assisting the Presi-
dent to run down bruin in his IA
inous bear hunt in the businesses of
the Mississippi has been secured and
brought to Jamison City for the pur-
pose of running down the bears
which have been repeatedly seen in
that locality, and whose tracks can
be found almost any morning in
somebody's back yard.
1t appears that DR.. Bonham OF
Fairmont Springs, who recently
died, was close friend of President
Roosevelt, and secured from him
one of the trained dogs which Roose-
welt used in his Mississippi hunt.
On the death of DR.. Bonham james
T. Brady, the well known Jamison
City lumberman, obtained the dog
in question, and Tuesday the ami
NAL arrived in Sullivan county ready
to run bruin to earth.
Mr.. Brady is the man who last
week caught a bear alive by means
of steel trap which he had set in
his field where the bear tracks had
frequently been seen.

Liverymen all through this sec
ton are being warned against a
gang of eight men who are operat-
ing in Central Pennsylvania as horse
thieves. Descriptions have been OBJ
tanned of some of the men and the
wires have been kept busy inform
ing every liveryman in several coun
ties. Three horses have been stolen
recently from Shamokin liverymen,
two being recovered, and one was
hired last week from DR.. Ira. G..
Coble, of Berwick, and driven for a
couple of days before it was secured.
In following up the route taken by
the men who procured the horse
from the Berwick liveryman it was
learned that they made several at
tempts to sell the turnout. AT
Mainville they offered the horse,
buggy and harness for S125, but the
man who was about to make the
purchase was scared thinking that
on account Of the low price there
was something wrong. People liv-
ing in the country will do well TO
investigate before purchasing horses
from strangers.

Promoters Of Electric poad Still Looking
the Ground Over.

w. l.. Connell, a prominent
Scrantonian who owns coal lands at
Bernice and who is also largely in
terested in the electric road that is
building from Scranton to Factory
vile, is in frequent correspondence
with some of the business men of
Tunkhannock regarding the posi-
bilities of securing the right of way
to run the road to Bernice by way
of Tunkhannock. He says that a
survey has been made from the
western side of the river through to
Bernice, and that a tentative site
for bridge to run diagonally across
the river at point near Tunkhan-
mock creek has been considered.
He plainly states that such
road would not pay without legisla-
tive enactment, permitting it, il
common with other roads to carry
freight.

From the position of ate-picker
while boy, DR.. f. w. Samuel has
forged ahead in life and through his
untiring efforts and close attention
has now gained position in the
business world that he can well feel
proud of. He has made his income
by hard manual labor and until he
had sufficient funds to secure ain edu-
cation and becoming medical stu
dent, after which he entered the
drug business. DR.. Samuel now has
a nice, clean, legitimate business,
Il business he can well feel proud of
and business that is of some bene-
fit to the general public.
He was sent to Congress from this
district and from the outset he gain
ed the confidence of every member
in the National House. He has a
great influence among his co-mem-
bers, and has never voted for bill
that his constituents were not IN
favor of, and has voted for every
bill that interested this district. Dr.
Samuel is in hearty cooperation
with all the measures President
Roosevelt advocates, and vote
against Samuel means weakness Of
the Presidents plans.
DR.. Samuel possesses all the quail
fications most desirable in a good
representative. He is genial, ener-
getic and painstaking, with the help
full disposition that makes it a pleas
ure for him to do anything in his
power to accommodate constitu-
ent Vote for DR.. E. w. Samuel for
Congress.
DR.. +, w. Samuel for representa-
tive in Congress from the Seven
teenth Congressional District, es-
pousing the Roosevelt policy, and if
reelected to this important Office
will stand by President Roosevelt.
Good citizens whether they be Dem
ocrats or Republicans, know what
this means for the welfare of the ma
ton.
The appeal made by President
Roosevelt for Republicans to stand
by their Congressional candidates is
almost pathetic. In the midst of
his term it would be a mistake worse
than a crime to leave him alone in
his efforts to better the condition Of
the country and with a Democratic
brake on he would be impotent to
help. Vote for DR.. Samuel.
