The statement in the last issue of
the Independent that somebody had
remarked that the editor of that
paper Ought to be driven out of
town" is not only possibly, but
probably true, as a large number
of the people of Honesdale and
vicinity have no doubt expressed
themselves time and time again to
this same effect 1t is said that his
tory repeats itself"

1t has fallen to the lot of the
writer to travel up and down this
broad commonwealth to a consider
able extent, both in search of busi-
ness and pleasure, and without an
attempt to fiatter the good people
of this section it can be truthfully
said that no town of equal size has
yet been found that equals our own
little city.

ALDRIDGE VICTOR LOSES.

Commissioner Declares Havens Neg
lected Expense Account.
A dispatch from Rochester, n. Y,
says:
Election Commissioner Alden
Nichols declares that James S. Ha-
vens, whose election to Congress over
George w. Aldridge, the Republican
boss, was hailed as great victory,
has forfeited the victory at the polls
by neglecting to file his election ex-
pense account within the required
ten days.
Nichols gave out this statement
after Havens' expense account was
received from Washington after the
ten days had elapsed and Nicholas
had declined to receive it. Nicholas
asserts that this will disqualify Ha-
vens.

The beautiful should exist in the
school life of the child. The school
building and grounds should portray
the artistic and beautiful. Those
things which adorn the tasty home
should embellish the school prop
erty-the lawn, terraces, walks, trees
and flowers. Within should be neat
ness and refinement. A neglected
school house is terrible demorali-
ger. Place a child at a mutilated
desk, put in his hands torn and soil
ed books and we find an almost ir-
resistible temptation to continue the
destruction with knife and pencil.
Place the same child in a neat, clean
room with suitable and beautiful
furniture and we Immediately re-
move the temptation for destruction.
