streets in some portion of the town are
veritable mud holes all the year round
Much has already been accomplished
in this direction, but there is still room
for Improvement.
Another factor in the prosperity of
the town is home trade. So many
people buy almost everything they use
from mail order houses when they
ought to keep the money at home IF
everyone could be induced to buy
what they need at the local stores, per-
haps the high prices, of which they
complain, would be reduced.
In the way of manufactures there is
an excellent opportunity for a stove
factory, which would utilize the pro
duct of the iron foundry. There is an
almost unlimited supply of glass sand
in which might furnish material for a
glass plant, and the clay in this vicin-
ity is said to be among the best in the
world for the manufacture of building
and paving brick. Though little or no
coal has been discovered in Emporium,
there is said to be a rich deposit at
Beechwood, which is not so far away
from town that the opening of mine
there would benefit us.
Then the railroads could do a great
deal toward improving the town.
Even a new station and beautiful
grounds at the junction would be a
great help. So much depends on the
first impression one receives of a place.
But more than this might easily be ac-
complished. The old Emporium and
Rich Valley Railroad which once ex-
tended to the tracks of the Pittsburg
Shawmut and Northern could easily be
rebuilt and improved, thus connecting
the p. S. & N, with Emporium.
The methods by which the prosper
ity of the town might be enhanced are
almost innumerable, but these few will
serve to show what Emporium might
be like if her natural resources were
developed. Let us hope that sometime
in the future, we of the younger gener-
alton, for our posterity will behold EN-
porium as bustling, thriving and
beautiful city.

WASHINGTON LETTER.
From our Regular Correspondent
Washington, May 1G, 1908.


Washington, May 1G, 1908.
Congress is making rapid progress
toward adjournmer9 and everything
now points to conclusion of the ses-
sion on May %. The House has pass
the Vreeland financial bill and the
Senate has substituted therefor a modi-
fled form of the Aldrich bill, which is
believed to be of far greater merit.
Both houses have appointed their con-
ferres and the measure which will be
finally enacted, if any is passed, will
be tramed'by them. In order to secure
favorable action on the Vreeland bill
the House had to repudiate its Bank
ing and Currency committee and the
Fowler-ites, as they have come to be
called, are in blind rage. There is an
old saying that, "Whom the gods
would destroy they first make mad"
and the members of the House have
paraphrased it to read, "Whom the
Speaker would destroy he first appoints
to the Banking and Currency commit
tee.n
Ofthe thirteen great supply bills of
the government, all but two have pass
ed both houses. The calendars of the
two houses are practically clear and
House committees have finally acted
regards as of the utmost Importance.
One legally creates the Inland Water
ways Commission, provides a salay for
its secretary and quarters for its offices,
and the other makes the government
/ liable to its employees engaged in haz-
ardous labor for injuries incurred in
the service. Any such SO injured shall
receive years pay, should he remain
unable to work for SO long, and should
he die, his years pay shall go to his
family.
All hope of anti-injunction legisla-
ton has been abandoned at this ses-
sion because of the extravagant de.
mands of the labor union leaders. The
President favored moderate bill and
there were able members of both
houses who were prepared to carry his
recommendations into effect, but the
labor leaders were SO insistent in their
demands for legislation which neither
the Chief Executive nor his supporters
in Congress could conscientiously adj
vocate, that Mr.. Roosevelt has advised
them to let the entire matter drop.

One of the handsomest souvenir
proclamations emanating from the
Office of the Governor of Virginia is
that issued by Governor Swanson
commemorating June Sd, the centen-
NAL anniversary of the birth of JEFF
ferson Davis, president of the South
ern Confederacy. The souvenir was
in the form of a folder containing the
Governors proclamation and a very
fine likeness of Mr.. Davis as he ap-
peared when Chief Executive of the
Confederacy. The Confederate and
Virginia State flags appear together
on the front. In the proclamation the
Governor urged that all the public
schools in the State hold exercises
commemorative of the day and occa-
sion and directed that the State Of
fees at Richmond be closed and the
State flag be placed at half-mast.
The Governor also urged a general
observance throughout the State.

Saturday, June 6, 1908.

The one hundreth anniversary OF
the birthday of jefferson Davis, the
only president of the Confederacy,
was appropriately and enthusiastically
celebrated throughout the Southland
on last Wednesday. AT every place
in which are Confederate Camps, i'll
all the great cemeteries of the South
where sleep those who fell in battle,
in many churches, public schools and
homes there were gatherings to eulo-
gize the name of Davis and to refute
the ISLANDERS with which his name has
been coupled by his enemies for hall
a century-and the people of the
South could not have honored them
selves more than they did in the loving
tributes paid by them to his memory
on the day. AS the Virginian-Pilol
so we'll says: ITO have risen superior
to adverse fortune,to have borne with
patience vicarious persecution, t(
have endured with dignity chains an(
Imprisonment, was enough to have
stamped the man as deserving thu
love and gratitude of the people il
whose cause he suffered and wa
strong He bequeaths to his owl
section gracious and illustriousnam'
and his memory is crowned with
love that will not perish" The tri
butte of respect due to this American
soldier and statesman, as one boil
great and good, will not be withheld
from him anywhere throughout on
land when the mists( and clouds o
sorrow and fierce passions shall hav
passed away.
By proclamation of the Governor O
Virginia the day was generally OBJ
served as a holiday, all State an
city officers being closed.

Secretary Taft was the orator on
last Saturday at the Memorial Day
exercises at the tomb of General U.
S. Grant and instead, of delivering
an eulogy appropriate to the occa-
sion, committed an objectionable
breach of taste and abuse of privilege
in advertising to the world the frail-
ties of the man, as appears in the fol-
lowing extract from his speech;
"He did we'll in the Mexican War,
as did other lieutenants," said Mr.
Taft. "He manifested, as regimental
quarter-master, energy and familiari-
ty with his duties. But in 1854 he re-
signed from the army because he had
TO. He had yielded to the weakness
of taste for strong drink, and rather
than be cOurt-martialed he left the
army. He returned from Vancouver,
on the Pacific Coast to his family in
st. Louis without money, without
property-a disheartened man. lie
accepted from his father-in-law a loan
of 70 acres, upon which he construct
ted a house for his family to live in,
and there he carried on farming
operations. His chief business seem
ed to be that of selling wood, cutting
it, and piling it in the backyards OF
the well-to-d0-people of St. Louis.
After six years of this life he gave up
farming because of ill health, and
went into the real estate business fo1
, year. He failed in this. His asso.
ciate dissolved the partnership. Then
at last his father offered him 5000 as
clerk in his leather store, at Galena
ILL.,, and then he moved from St
Louis. He worked there for d year
also. During these seven years, though
everything looked dark, he overcame
in great measure his weakness fol
strong drink. But he was 50 consti
tuted that it seemed impossible fol
him to earn livelihood even wher
he bad given hostages to fortune IL
the shape of wife and four children
The speech has caused widespread
discussion throughout the country
and is as heartily condemned in the
South as in the North. What the
Secretary said may be true, bu
every body is shocked at the pitiles
way in which he invaded the quie
of Grants tomb to rake up the deaC
embers of the past and expose hi
weaknesses and misfortunes to th
world.
