tivtes the District of Columbia appro-
priation bill was side tracked, while
the members induced in general de
bate on Thursday. This took a wide
range, the proceedings opening with a
defense of the rules of the House by
Mr.. Olmsted, of Pennsylvania. His
remarks stirred up the subject IN all
it's phases and gave the so-called IN
s%urgents under the leadership Of Mr..
Gardner, of Massachusetts,, an oppor-
tunity to air their grievances. MI.
Cochran, of New York, occupied midi
die ground on the proposition.
Mr.. Taft's reported intention to
break the solid South was incidentally
brought into discussion in the course
of a speech on the tariff by Mr.. Shep-
pard, of Texas, who remarked In that
connection that the President-elect
had made himself ridiculous.
After having made him the target
all day for criticism with here and
there words Of commentator, the
House of Representatives by a vote
of 2l2 to 35 rebuked the President by
tabIing so much os his message as re-

| connection with his recommendations
regarding the secret service detectives
and also declaring it to be the sense
of the House that. they shall decllne
to consider any communications from

Toward the close of the debate Mr.
| Gardner, of Massachusetts,, valn1!y en-
| deavored to secure, first the adoption
| of a substitute for the resolution II
the shape of an amendment express
ing confidence in the committee on ap
preparations, and then the postpone
ment of the whole matter until Mon

1t is bad taste, at least, for any
home newspaper to discourage the
efforts now being made to have a
successful Home Coming Week in
Wayne county.
The business men who started
the project, who have given con-
siderable of their time, and shown
a disposition to foot the bills, de-
serve to be encouraged, as their mo-
tive is to stimulate business in gen.
eral and bring to the notice of
former residents the steady i'm
provement in Honesdale's growth
as manufacturing center, while
she still retains her record as being
one of most desirable residential
towns in Northeastern Pennsylvania.

terprise which will help your town,
but help it along, as all good citi-
Zens will.

which began the manufacturing
business in the Dodge building,
was, owing to the increase in busi-

Earl Sherwood, of Honesdale, has
perfected fuse box for trolley car
that eliminates all explosions, panics
and excitement when a fuse blows
out. From the fact that there is a
simple puff of the fuse, known only
to the motorman, a fuse is replaced
without the knowledge of the pas
sengers. The Boston Elevated Rail-
road, surface system, was desirous
of securing better fuse and at their
suggestion Mr.. Sherwood worked out
his present patent. Mr.. Sherwood
has devoted considerable of his time
of late in securing patents on Vari-
GUS inventions, among them being
tenders for automobiles and trolley
cars. They have been manufactured
and thousands of them are now in
use on cars in New Jersey, Virginia,
