Stupenduous Steal.

When u trust like the American
Sugar Refining Company is caught red.
handed In cheating the government or
municipality and is found guilty and
sentenced to pay fine, its members
try to escape criminal action by
throwing all the blame of the thievery
upon their employees. 1t is encourag-
ing to learn that this plea will not hold
in the case Of the above company for
the government intends to bring a
criminal suit. The Sugar Refining
Company defrauded the government
Of the duty on 75,OOO,00O pounds Of
sugar and the city OF New York of a
vast sum for water it had surreptitious-
ly taken and it is only right that the
principals who thus cheated and
stole should receive adequate punish
ment. To them a fne OF a 81, ,O00, 900

WcCrsight the Leader
On Eve of Election.

In the closing davs of the present
campaign 1t is pretty generally con-
ced,d that Smith McCreight will re-
ceve the Republican nomination for
District Attorney IL is no surprise
to the people of this section Of the
county that Mr.. McCreight is the lead
ing candidate, for it Is now known that
the office of District Attorney, next
to the Judgeship, is the most import
ant In the county, and the voters are
disposed to select IA man OF sound judg-
ment, seasoned by experience, for the
position, rather than to use the office
simply as a training school for young
lawyers. Mr.. McCreight has had
twelve years active experience In the
practice OF law. In addition to being
a good lawyer, he is an active, progress
sive and successful business man, and 1t
is such men the Reople should always
select to serve them.
1t may be iruthfully said that he Is
high above either Of his two younger
opponents In ability and the mature
judgment necessarily growing out Of his
longer experience, and this can be said
without discredit to either Of the other
candidates, both OF whom are bright
young man. Mr.. McCreight has always
been hard worker for the Republican
party, and during many years he has
given time and Influence to its support,
and this Is the first time he has asked for
an Office that would bring him some
reward for his faithful service. 1t is
about 25 years since a Reynoldsville
lawyer held that Office, Brookville and
Punxsutawney usually capturing 1t, but
it is now recognized by fair-minded
men In these towns, as we'll as through
out the county generally, that Reyn-
oldsville should receive the honor at
this time.
After Mr.. McCreight has served
term, or even two terms, the other can
didstes will be younger than he is at
present, and there will be ample time
and opportunity for them to realize
their ambition. 1t is, therefore, the
right thing for the Republican voters
to give Mr.. McCreight their support
at the primary election on SATURDAY. OF
this week, Iuuc 5. VOTER.

Great Series of Sermons
At Methodist Church

For all who have left the home Of
their youth and look back with regret
upon the simple and unaffected life Of
their childhood, the sermon of Rev. John
F. Black In the Methodist Episcopal
church Sunday evening will have pc
culiar charm. 1t will be the first OF
series ol sermons under the general
title Of "Old Hick'ry Farm" drawn
from the annals of the homely, every
day life that til 8 up the existence OF the
average person. The minister believes
and has already shown, that some of
the purest and sublimest lessons may
be drawn from the uninspired deeds
OF mortal men, and In the series OF
sermons he has prepared he has con-
nected In striking way an old and
familiar parable of Christ with phase
of modern life that is familiar to all.
Few there are who have not at some
time felt the wild, uuruly longing to
leave the quiet scenes OF home life for
the passionate madness Of reckless
city career; and still fewer are those
who have followed the lure who have
not looked back with saoness on their
course. These are the basic sentiments
which form the subject Of this remark
able series of sermons. In Difference to
production which has recently been
made familiar to large numbers OF local
people, the sermons will be presented
In the form of drama, of which the
following is an outline:
"OLD HICK'RY FARM"

Of the world; Leaving hom".

Splitting on Sidewalk.

There was some talk OF trying TO get
town c iuncil to pass an ordinance pro-
hibiting people from splitting on the
sid walks, but the recent act OF the
state Legislature, which was signed by
Governor Stuart, mention of which was
made in The STAR two weeks ago,
makes state law which applies 10 any
city, borough, village or township in
the state, making it an 0ifense punish
able by ne of 81. 90 for any person to
expectorate on the sidewalk or on the
floor OF any public room or conveyance.
Unless Immediate steps are taken to
enforce It the law will soon be dead

OF those who violate this new law,
doubtless there would be some enraged
and indignant citizens, but the law lie
useless unless it is vigorously enforced.

60 to some town where it is enforced
and the habit Of splitting on sidewalk
may cause you to pay fine. 1t is be-
lieyed that the most common way In
which tuberculosis and some other
diseases are spread is by expectorating
on sidewalks and in public rooms,
therefore, the law is not passed alone
in behalf of public decency, but for the
promotion of the public health. 1t Is
likely few al rests will have to be
made before people will stop the nasty
habit.

On the subject of using the news.
paper to express criticism by anomy-
nous contributions, the Lick Haven
Times says:
Casually the man who wishes to
criticise comes to the editor in per-
son and requests that an editorial be
written tearing the other fellow up
the back as he usually terms It,.
When asked to produce the facts over
his own signature, he exhibits the
white feather and If he be business
man, openly admits that 1t would in
jure his business and hundred excuses
why he should not do SO. He forgets
that the average country newspaper
man with barely sufficient business to
exc out an existence, is the last man
who can afford to offend single patron
OF the Office and drive trade that
naturally belongs to Tim to another
newspaper.
IA newspaper Is not calculated to
be sewer through which the citizen
or its editor shall pour venom, but IL
should be the purpose OF every real
newspaper to serve the people as AL
educator both in the giving Of news
and in just criticism of public matters
that are conducted in such manner
as to merit public approval"
