WE occasionally hear it stated that
women are eligible to borough and town
ship offices in Pennsylvania. This idea
grows out of the fact that, by virtue of
special act, they may serve as school
directors, but this is as far as their
privilegesin this direction go. Upin Iioga
county this question was authoritatively
settled few days ago. "The question
of the eligibility of Mrs. Elinor Wescott
for the Office of collector, created much
discussion both in the township and at
Wellsboro," says the Westfield Free
Press. "The first lot of ballots printed
and sent to the election board of West
field township contained Mrs. West
colts name and that of Il. A. Buck, as
Republican candidates for collector. The
commissioners were undecided whether
or not Mrs. Wescott could be elected as
Tax Collector, and the matter was finally
referred to Attorney General Todd, who
decided that she was not eligible to the
office and consequently though she re-
ceived the majority of votes at the eau
Gus, was not the Republican nominee
and that her name should not go on the
ticket

REPRESENTATIVE f. f. Jones, of Sus-
quehanna, has given utterance to the
most sensible expressions regarding the
good roads movement that have been
heard. His plea for dirt roads and for
abolishing the working out road taxi
and substituting the payment of money,
thus conducting road constructing on a
business basis, is right to the point in
practicability. The Scranton Republican
in commencing Mr.. Jones says: Itwould
be just as wise to ask the citizens to
"work out" their school tax by person
ally repairing the buildings, teaching q
day now and then, or acting as janitor
occasionally, as to ask them to contrib
ute few days work under more or lesi
incompetent supervisionin road making
Lackawanna county will never have
even tolerablo roads until this archaic
practice is abandoned.

Harrisburg Letter.

MARCH 6th.-On Thursday next the Su-
perior Court will sit here and hear argu-
ments for new trial in the case of
Messrs. Sanderson, Snyder, Mathues
and Shumaker. All of the defendants
are now out on bail. The appeal to the
Superior Court was takeG in October
last, when Judge Kunkelof the Dauphin
Common Pleas refused new trial and
passed sentence upon the four defend
ants. Since that time ex-State Treas
urer Mathues has died. Should the Su-
perior Court refuse a new trial the de-
PENDANTS may appeal to the Supreme
Court. If the appeal be refused or a
new trial denied them, the defendants
will then have to undergo the sentence
imposed. Another case in connection
with the finishing and furnishing of the
new Capitol will be tried, and the four
defendants above named will have Jos.
Nj. Huston, the architect, added to their
number. The date is April 5th.

Catholic Church ChOirs.

The news which comes from Rome
that the Congregation of Rites has so
far modified the decree promulgated by
the present Pope soon after his accession
concerning the composition of Catholic
church choirs as to sanction the engage
nent of women in such choirs will be re-
ceived with much satisfaction by the
local clergy in many parishes. 1t is no
secret that the exclusion of women from
their choirs caused them great embar-
rassment. AS matter of course, such
as were not excused from the full oper-
alton of the order, complied with it be-
cause the strictness of its discipline is
one of the strong points of the Roman
organization, but they did so with great
reluctance. Honesdale was not greatly
affected by the decree, as the bishop of
the diocese permitted mixed voices at
vespers, with exclusively male singers at
mass, in st. Johns church, and in st.
Mary Magdalen's no change was made
in the composition of the choir for any
of the services. When the decree was
promulgated St. Johns choir of mixed
voices, always noted for its exceptionally
fine music, was at very high point of
efficiency, many protestants attending
at Easter and other special occasions at
tracted largely by the musical pro-
gramme and hence there was gener-
al feeling of regret when it was an
nounced that the organization must be
disbanded. 1t was not long, however,
before a notably fine male choir was
selected and trained, and, comprising
fifteen boys and nine adults, is now full
ly sustaining the reputation of the church
for good music. 1t is probable that St.
Johns will not return to mixed voices
for the mass services, for some time at
least.
The pastors of many churches, how
ever, were very 10th to give up their old
choirs, as they were mot so fortunate in
the matter of material to take their
places as our local congregation. 1t was
not only that in dismissing the women
singers they would be sacrificing an at
tractive feature of the service, although
as practical men they could not have
failed to appreciate the Importance OF
this consideration. What troubled them
most was the difficulty which they knew
would be encountered in replacing those
whom they had been forbiddento retain.
1t may be possible to European countries
to get plenty of boys with voices suf-
ficiently good to be available, who can
without too much trouble be induced or
compelled to undergo the training nee
essary to enable them to sing even in a
passable way the music of the mass. II
is not easy in the United States and
while the clergy must be assumed to
have done their best, the results gener-
ally speaking have been far from salts
factory. There are a few churches where
the ideal which the Pope had in view
when he proclaimed his 'De motu pro-
priis" encyclical has been approximate
ly attained, but these are exceptional.

DIRECT PRIMARY
FAILS To DRAW
OUT VOTERS

Things in actually are not what
they seem in prospect to the political
innovationist always, as appears from
the following account of Chicagos
first primary election extracted from a
report thereof in the Chicago Daily
News. 1t will be seen that the oppor-
tunity presented for direct choice OF
candidates failed to increase the in
terest u citizens even in so important
matter as the election of judges:
"Abnormally small votes at the ju
dietary primary were reported today
from the great majority of the 1,322
precincts in Chicago. In the judg-
ment of the watchful party leaders
who reeived them these reports indi-
Gated an Indifference not anticipated
toward the first primary at which the
voters have ever been allowed the OPP
portunity to nominate directly by
their own ballots the republican, de-
mocratic and socialist candidates for
the entire Circuit bench and one mem
Der of the Superior court. The infoT-
nation as to the progress of the vot-
ing in the city was matched by SINH
lar news from the country towns of
Cook county, whose voters shared in
the responsibility attending the first
judiciary primary under the present
law
In many of the Chicago precincts
the clocks marked ten and in others
fifteen minutes after the hour of the
opening of the polls at 6 a. IN. before
the first voter struggled into the poll
ing place. In one precinct OF the 10th
ward only Z and in another only 5
votes were polled in the first three
hours. AS the day advanced, no ap-
preciable increase was observed in the
rate at which the voters sought the
polls.
AT the election board the change
was so great from the continuous per-
Torrance of complaints and kicks and
stories of trouble which customarily
pour in all day long when an election
is on that Commissioner Thomas F..
Judge said it reminded him of Sun
day school picnic. After getting a

"Bloodhounds'' Watch Americans as

Chicago Woman Disappoints Agents,
However, by Taking Her Prop
erty Across the Channel.

PARIS, France, April l3-"The
bloodhounds of Uncle Sam, as United
States treasury secret service agents
are known here, have arrived with
every expectation of passing an &C
tive and profitable season. More are to
come, but there are already about
fifty in France alone. Some are work
ing along lines of their own, while
others are cooperating with the Unit
ed States consuls in the large French
provincial centers as we'll as in Paris.
Several are luXuriously quartered in
tirst-class hotels, where they will pass
the summer making and developing
acquaintance which are likely to
yield thousands or dollars to the Unit
ed States customs, it being the deter
mination of the treasury to stop the
low invoicing by French exporters in
dealing with American firms with
which they have secret agreements.
But this does not end the work OF
the special agents. They are also par
ticularly keen on the track of the rich
and heavy-purchasing New Yorker,
Chicagoan and Bostonian, who with
out any prrcKs OF conscience hither-
to have defrauded the American gov
eminent out of untold amounts in
customs duties. In the effort some OF
the agents employ French detectives.
who already are showing certain
wealthy Americans recently arrived.
Mrs. Potter Palmer of Chicago, who
came from London last week, has en-
tered no art shop or tapestry deaIerss
place without the fact and figures be-
ing known a few minutes afterward.
She disappointed the "bloodhounds" by
merely taking ner purchases across
the channel, where, however, a SINH
larly organized service exists
! The whole system threatens to de-
velop into an almost intolerable sys-
tenn of espionage. Subordinates of
subagents are establishing working
basis through the paid condolences OF
hotel chambermaids, Wallets and 9TH
er servants, and in some cases even
of the hotel managers themselves.
Firms engaged in the business of pro-
viding Americans with luxuries in the
way of art works, dress and so on
unquestionably will be drawn into
what certain French critics call a me-
diaeval network of official spring such
as "befits the Latin temperament, so
the Americans have often told us, ra-
Their than the free-spirited Anglo-Sax-
on race"
The proof of the pudding will be in
the eating. If through the project the
New York custom house is regularly
kept informed of the purchases made
by Americans abroad, then undoubt-
eddy it will be kept up. At any rate
the United states treasury agents
here desire that a widespread warning
be published at home so that travel
ers, the number of whom from Anne.
RIGA this year Will be greater than ever
before on the continent, must honest
ly declare the value of their foreign
purchases on their return or expect
to have the heavy hand of the law laid
on their shoulders. Subterfuge anC
evasion now have become practically
out of the question.
