HoIbrook Happenings
FROM THE ARGUS
Holbrook Victorious

Although we may be classed
as one of the diciples of the late
lamented animals, nevertheless
we are going to chronicle the
fact that the HOlbrOOk base ball
team won a game. Oh, you Hol-
brook. 1t happeued something
like this: An aggregation OF al
legged ball players claiming them
selves as residents of Chambers,
Arizona, bravely issued a chall,
enge to our much defeated nine.
and thought they would have an
easy time, but such was not the
case, as our bows have been faith
fully practicing for the past few
months, and walloped the visit
ors to the tune of II to 6. The
game was one of the best that
has ever been played on the local
diamond. The local lads are much
elated over the result and the
manager is now busy issuing
challenges to all corners, so be-
ware.

more machines on the road here
and it is his intention to put in
an automobile line from here to

Common Sense Decision.

We commend Superintendent of
Public Instruction George Howell and
the Board of Control upon arriving
at the decision, there will be no reg
ulation gowns and mortar boards
worn by graduates of the High
schools at commencement, and that
the valedictorian and salutatorian
are not to deliver stilled and ponder
GUS essays as of yore. There is no.
thing sweeter, prettier, or more in
spring than the young ladies robed
in white, in their customary wearing
apparel if they choose, and the boys
neatly attired. The college garb is
neither becoming to the young ladies
or young gentlemen, nor is it SEEM
ing to ape high institutions of learn
ing. And it is equally ridiculous to
have the salutatorian and valedictor-
ian recite some effort they have
poured over for weeks, far beyond
their actual attainment perhaps and
over the heads of their audience.
Some plain, practical, common every
day little speech, original, natural,
and from the heart is better than
theatricals and gush,

FREE-TRADE FOOLISHNESS.

Here is q specimen of the stuff
and nonsense" which Free-Traders
are sending out for circulation
The shirt you wear pays a Tarih
tax of 60 per cent. of its value.
The hat you wear pays Tariff tax
of 60 per cent. of its value and in
addition to this A cents per pound.
The coat you wear pays Tariff
tax of 60 per cent. of it's value and
in addition to this 33 cents per
pound.
The trousers you wear pay Tariff
tax of 60 per cent. of value and in
addition to this 33 cents per pound.
The shoes you wear pay Tariff
tax of 35 per cent of value
AS matter of fact, not one of the
articles named pays a cent of Tariff
tax, if manufactured in the United
States. If you insist on wearing i'm
ported toggery it is no more than
right that you pay duty for the
support of the Government and for
the privilege of bringing foreign
goods into the United States; especi-
ally in view of the fact that the ar
ticles made at home ought to be
good enough for anybody.
1t may be replied that the Tariff
enables domestic manufactures to
charge exorbitant prices. But is any
body laboring under the delusion
that without the Tariff he could
buy, for example, dollar shirt for
40 cents? That notion was long ago
dispelled.
The Tariff is for the Protection of
American wage earners from cheap
foreign competition. If you imagine
that this is oppressive rather than
beneficial, just explain why it is that
the families of wage earners in this
country live in better homes, wear
better clothes and are able to have
more enjoyments, than any CORES
ponding class of people on the face
of the earth.-Rochester Democrat
Chronicle.

PLAY GROUNDS.

A spasm of Tickleum in last Fri
days Independent, leads us to be-
lieve that Brother Haines of the
Independent and Brother Stocker
of the Herald have clasped hands
over the bloody chasm and until
further notice will present a solid
front on the issue of public play
grounds for our Children few of
the planks in their platform as
given to the general public by Mr.
Stocker at meeting in the Presby-
terian chapel on last Wednesday
evening are as follows, viz:
To dump the Soldiers Monument
into the Lackawaxen River.
To fill up the fountain and re-
move the flowers.
To cut down the trees and convert
the Park into a public playground.
This bold move on the part of
these gentlemen is commendable
as it shows an unselfish devotion
to the welfare of the children of
our Borough, especially as neither
gentlemen have Rooseveltian fami-
lies to enjoy the proposed play
grounds.
1t would add greatly to the pres
ent popularity of these gentle
men if, while the rest of the COM
munity are digesting their proposi-
tion, that Mr.. Haines throw open
his nice corner lot and Mr.. Stocker
his back yard as a playground. At
Of nf
sports and pastimes they would have
a practical experience, that would
increase their earnestness in having
the proposed play grounds located
in close proximity to other people S
property. That portion of the Inde-
pendent's article which is used as a
closing argument and which tells
very pathetically of the farmers who
lost several pigs, because they had
not proper Fairgrounds, ought to
cause the entire swine family to
join in one universal grunt in favor
of public Fairgrounds for their off
spring. While this question of
turning Central Park in play
ground is in a state of betweenity
we advise Bethany and other
congested districts not to join in
this movement and would recon-
mend its advocates to spend few
days inspecting the Fairgrounds in
effect upon adjacent property. Their
report would interest people owning
property facing Central Park.

PENNSYLVANIA IN ART.
BY MISS ABIGAIL BAIRD.

Pennsylvania art, like the nation, is
young. When colonization and prestige
in the world are country's main am
bition, its art and literature will both
suffer from this unsettled condition. In
tracing Pennsylvania art development
this fact deserves our consideration.
Previous to the Revolutionary period,
there was nothing that might be called
art; yet, to-day, we possess the oldest
art institution in America-namely the
Academy of Fine Arts in Philadelphia.
We have many worthy patrons besides
innumerable artists, whose work pre-
sents the most varied themes in finished
way, preserving truth and history, avoid
ing the commonplace, and ranking usual
ly with that of contemporary English or
American artists. Nevertheless, men
tioning all of these would be manifestly

Not a Local Issue.

The fact that Protection is not a
local issue, as a former Democratic
candidate for the Presidency de-
clared, is plain y shown in the col
umns of the Southern newspapers,
which tell how, under the benefi-
cent guardianship of the Mckinley
law, industries are being built up
that promise at no distant date to
give employment and good wages
to hundreds of thousands of work.

Commercial, published in the DEM

all the workingmen of England;

Louisville than in all England"
