ground that the Office of county treas
urer is a useless office, a sinecure, and
that it is a waste of money to pay the
salary.
As to Railroad Commission.
1t is also probable that the Legisla-
ture will consider the recommendation
of Gov. Brown that the Railroad Corn
nilsson should be decreased from FIVE
to three, with the abolition of the Of
fee of rate expert and special attor-
ney.
The Governor pointed out in his
message last summer that three ex-
perienced men on the commission can
do the work as we'll or better than
five, and that tie rate expert and the
special attorney hold offices for which
there is no necessity. He also pointed
out the increased expense entailed up
on the state by the ex stence of these
offices.
The bill providing for the creation
of the office of state agent for the
Western and Atlantic Railroad and
another providing that 100000 shall
be appropriated for buying property
on which an annex to the State Cap
itol sha ] be located, are also pending
in the House, having been introduced
by Hooper Alexander of DeKalb, and
will probably be taken up for consii-
erat on this summer.
May Repeal Dog Tax.
At last, but far from being least, is
the dog tax law, a measure passes
last summer, and TIE repeal of which
will probably be discussed very fer
yently some time this summer.
It is said the hue and cry raised by
the passage of the dog tax~law has
brought on hot political campaigns in
several counties of the state where the
issue Eas been made the repeal of the
dog law In countless instances the
people have fatty refused to pay the
tax of 81 imposed on all dogs and have
declared their intention of sending no
man to the Legislature who will not
vote to take it off.

The Legislature will take up also
the question of estabI' shing a bureau
of labor with a commissioner of labor
in charge of it. his duties. among other
things, being to gather information and
labor statistics for the information of
industries which may wish to locate
in this state. The Governor recon-
mended the creation of such a bureau
and bill carrying that provision IS
now pending in the House.
The question of raising the salar' es
of the judges of the Court of Appeals

That Chattanooga Land.
One of tie questions in which the
General Assembly will probably be
most interested will be Gov. Browns
report of his action declining to buy
the terminal property for the state
road at Chattanooga, a bill authorfz ne
the purchase having been passed by
both houses last summer.
Although the Legislature could, If il
saw fit, pass another bill providing for
the purchase Of the property, it is net
believed this will be done, as the Leg
islature did not go on record as ms +
ing on the purchase. merely leaving it
optional with the Governor and rely
ing upon Lis judgment in the matter
When the Governor was criticised
by some of his opponents for not max
ing the purchase of the property the
charge was made that the law Was
mandatory and that TIE act of the
General Assembly committed the Coz
ernor to the purchases. Practically ali
legislators who have expressed them
selves on the subject, including H. II
Perry, Gov. Browns opponent, have
stated that at the time the bill was
passed they held the opinion that Il

Biennial Sessions.

One of the most important bills
which the Legislature will consider
and VIII ch probably will be passed IS
the bill providing for biennial sessions.
This bill passed the Senate last sum
mer by a safe majority and it is gem
orally believed it will pass the House
during the coming session. The senti-
ment in the House last summer APP
peared to favor it.
Another bill of general interest and
of considerable Importance is that
which, provides for a repeal of the
present registration law which re
quires registration six months prior u
an election. The repeal of this Il
was recommended by Gov. Brown IN
his message last year, and following
the reading of his message a bill in
line with his recommendation was in
troduced, but was not reached before
the body adjourned. It will come up
this session and it IS expected that il
will bring on very hot fight
The bill which provides that the
state should issue $500 900 worth OF
bonds for the purpose of making early
payments to the school teachers is al
SO on the calendar and will be taken
up for consideration this summer. The
passage of such bill was recommend
ed by the Governor last year and it is
stated he VII urge its passage again
this year.

LOCAL MENTION.

will have meeting Wednesday
night.
M. Lee Braman last week sold
three horses to Middletown, N. Y,

The annual convention of the
Wayne County Sabbath School as

If the Delaware river at this
place (Callicoon) gets much lower
you won't be able to find it with a
microscope, says the Sullivan Coun-
ty Democrat. The volume of water
passing under the bridge isn't as
large as that which comes down
Callicoon creek. Every year the
river gets lower and at the present
rate it won't be but a few years
before it runs dry. And all due to
stripping the forests.
-Pittston, like Scranton, is trying
to clean up bit. An alleged disor-
derly house in the rear of Keystone
hall was raided by Patrolmen Connell
and Newcomb. They found Mrs.
Lukewater, who occupies the dwell
ing, another woman and two men in
the place. A taXicab was secured and
the four prisoners taken to the police
station. Chief of Police Price had
had the house under surveillance sew
eral weeks, it having been reported
to him that it was being made a re-
sort for drinking and disorderly con-
duct.
The Weaver-Doolittle wedding
is coming nearer. Mr.. Weaver ar
rived Saturday from Towanda and is
with his parents, Mr.. and Mrs. John
H. Weaver, at the Hotel Wayne. The
wedding takes place Wednesday.

the Wayne Cut Glass company
There are about 1875 men working,
orders are coming in well, and the
outlook is excellent. MIR. Weaver S
house on Fourth street in Towanda
is furnished and ready for his
bride.
The Delaware, Lackawanna and
Western railroad has entirely dis
pensed with the telegraph for train
dispatching purposes. The telephone
has taken its place. On the sixty
three miles of line between Scranton
and Binghamton, n. Y, in 1908 the
first trial of the new system was
made. Now the company has 27l
stations equipped with the telephone
apparatus and $500 miles of wire
Though experiments with telephone
dispatching were started in the west
the Lackawanna is the first road to
use the system exclusively over all
its lines.
Special Representative Maddy OF
the Erie railroad says that on Novem-
ber ! the trains of the New York
Susquehanna and Western, now con-
trolled by the Erie, will enter the
Erie terminal by way of the Bergen
cut. The west end of the Bergen
tunnel is now being blasted away to
make room for the changes in tracks
which will have to be done before the
Susquehanna tracks can be inclined
down the grade and enter the cut
The tracks of the New York and
Northern will also be shifted and the
freight tracks through the tunnel will
divert to the right, doing away with
the curve at that point.

DO farmers eat the proper
sort of food?

The farmer of today buys a much
larger proportion Of the food that goes
on the table than he did ten years ago.
II a good thing that this is so because
he has a great variety To select from.
He should, however use great care
IN selecting for the best results in
health and strength.
The widespread tendency in the city
to increase the amount of Quaker Oats
eaten Is due very largely TO the recent
demonstrations by scientific men that
the Quaker Oats fed man is the man
with greatest physical endurance and
greatest mental vigor.
Farmers should give this subject
careful thought and should increase
the quantity of Quaker Oats eaten by
themselves, their children and the
farm hands.
