Clean Up for Easter.

The New Haven Register has sug-
gested that it is about time to begin
to cleain up for Easter. If it is time
for action in New Haven, it is GER
tainly time for doing something in
Scranton. The back yards and alleys
OF this city, not to mention some of
the Streets are in a condition which,
to say the least, is uninviting. In
the interest of good health. and good
looks, We should begin the work Of
renovation. 1t is now time to plant
trees, rake off the lawn, select the
flower seeds, remove the boxes and
rubbish from the back yard, spruce
up generally and enter upon the work
of making Scranton more healthful
and more beautiful or clean up for
Easter.

"Althougn tnat method compels me

policy as no patron who has ever
called for a certain piece has been

KNOXVILLE A FAILURE.

A Bremen county boozer who has on
former occasions made expense for this
county at the state institution for
drunkards at Knoxville, got ramp
ant again this week, and those whom
it concerned have been debating
whether or not to sentence him to
Knoxville for another term. But what's
the use of taking such fellows to Knox
vile? The state institution for inebri-
ates at Knoxville is a dismal failure.
All they seem able to do there is to
keep the boozers away from whisky for
a while. then they are turned out and
the community is again afflicted with
them and it has the same Job to do
over again. If such drunkards are
looked up in the county Jail and fed
on bread and water for thirty or sixty
days they will receive just as much
benefit as when they are sent to Knox
vile, and the jail program costs the
county only about half as much as the
state hospital" We are for pAtroniz-
ing home institutions as long as they
can do as much or more good than the
hospital" at Knoxville.
