Uncle Sam After Flies.

A concerted country wide attack
is to be made on the househy this
year, according to Chief Entomolo-
gist Howard, who testified recently
before congressional committee.
When spring begins, hundreds Of
scientists, aided by laborers, drugs
and chemicals and mechanical kill
ers will try to drive the household
pest out of existence. DR.. Howard
says the campaign will be opened
in the country districts and the de-
partment will issue farmers bull
letin giving advice as to the ills the
flies are responsible for and how to
them.
DR.. Howard says the importance

To Protect the Skunk.

The skunk, which has heretofore
had the reputation of being an un-
desirable citizen OF the animal king
dom, is hailed as a noble and useful
animal by a measure which is to
come up for hearing before the
Committee OH Fisheries and Game.
If House Bill No. 1862 becomes
a law, anybody who kills a skunk
may be fined from S. to $500 and
sent to jail period of one month
to one year.
Farmers are divided over the
skunk. One view of the animal is
that it kills chickens and that it
doesn't use proper kind of sachet
powder. The other view is that il
is death on field mice and its prin-
cipal food is upon the May beetle.
which is very destructive to young
orchards, raspberry and strawberry
vines.

The Insurgents.

The stalwart Republicans are
throwing up their bands in holy
horror because of the unheard at
tempt of some Republican members
of Congress to fight party" meas
ures. These insurgents" have
been cursed by the bigots through
out the country; have been called
all sorts of names; they have even
been threatened with expulsion
from the party.
These men are the real patriots
of the Republican forces. Whether
or not they side with the Demo
Gratis, we admire them. They are
few in number, but they have the
strength aud courage to revolt
against the organization, and to
fight for what they think is right,
but their lack of subservience is
shocking to the G.. O. P.

Millionaire Says System" is
Robbery.

The spectacle of a millionaire
telling his hearers that he made his
millions by robbing the people, that
all monopolists do, but that he had
begun to recover his conscience and
was going to devote his wealth to
lighting the system which made it
possible, was the unique entertain
ment provided by the City Club Of
Chicago at a luncheon last week
The speaker was Joseph Fels of
Philadelphia, head of a uaphtha
soap company bearing his name,
He said he was a disciple of Henry
George and would always remain a
Single taXer."
I'VE can't get rich in a lifetime
nowadays, ," Mir. Fels said, "under
the present system of things, unless
we do so by robbing the people. l
have made my money that way,
and my firm is still doing il. You
are all doing it. Every one of your
self made millionaires has done it.
However, l want to say l have be-
gun to recover my conscience, and
| am going to devote my 'swag'-I
like to call it that, for that's what
it is to doing away with the cur
sed system which makes it possible.
"If any of your millionaires feel
the same way about it, for Gods
sake let's cross hands on it. l will
be all oddity. It's unusual, though
for man who has made his money
by robbing the people through a
monopoly to be called a curiosity.
1t is also curiosity to find a man,
after nearly so years of monopoly
mongering, to admit it and under
go change of heart. But l am
sincere"

MUST HAVE ATTENTION.
An State Roads Must Be Looked AT.
ter This Spring.

Supervisors, in whose townships
state highways pass, are being ad-
vised by the State Highway De-
partment to pay particular atten-
ton to the roads this spring if they
desire them not to disintegrate.
They must have proper repairs or
the money spent on them will be
lost. In an interview with a state
engineer some facts relative to the
care of macadam were learned. In
the first place it may not be gener-
ally understood that although built
with state aid, the care and preser-
vation OF state highway devolves
wholly on the township through
which 1t passes. In too many in
stances, after highway has been
secured the view taken seems to be
that it is going to last forever,
whereas, the engineer says, to pro-
tect piece OF macadam and make
the road lasting, con slant attention
is necessary. Otherwise what might
be hne and permanent improve
ment will speedily go to pieces,
bringing a very poor return for all
the money invested. The first re-
pairs. the engineer says, should be
put on the ishway six months af-
ter it is thrown open to travel.
Thereafter at the end of every year
repairs should be made.

Sentiment in Politics.

My son, it is all right to be SEN
timental about your mother, or
your best girl, or your school, or
your home, but never be sentimen-
tai about yorr political party.
Brown, Jones and Smith were
sentimentalists in politics For
sentimental reasons they voted the
regular ticket Of a glorious old par.
ty that has kept the United States
on her feet for fifty years, when
she has not been OH her knees.
Aided by the votes of Jones,
Brown and Smith, the party ma
chine put men in municipal office
who were eXtravagant and neg
lectful.
Taxes were therefore high.
Accordingly high were the rents
that Jones, Brown and Smith had
to pay.
The party machine sent men to
the State Capital and Washington
to do the bidding of the Trusts, the
railroads and Wall Street, who
were the owners and proprietors of
the party machine.
Living was therefore almost cost
ly enough to be regarded as a lux
ury, and Jones, Brown and Smith
felt large callous spots growing on
their necks from the pressure of
the yoke.
That YVES years ago, and the cal
lous spots are thicker to-day than
ever before.
To-day Jones has it in for the
Trusts something fierce.
Brown would rather denounce
the railroads than eat.
Smith declares that Wall Street
is a vampire.
Next fall Jones, Brown and
Smith will go to the polls and vote
the regular ticket as usual.
Loyalty is a noble quality, my
son; but loyalty to a party that is
disloyal to you is sentimental tom
myrot. .-Wevark E7enlRg MeWS.

COURT BARS GROCERIES.
Severe Structures on Tendencies Of
Saloons in Luzerne.

In Court at Wilkes Barre last
Monday Judge Fuller declined to
grant liquor licenses to any new
applicants. Old houses received
their licenses, but over 100 new APP
plicants we're turned down.
The Judge said that simply be.
cause a man lost a leg i'll an acci-
dent was no reason why h. should
be granted a license. Neither was
he entitled to one because he had
10 children to support.
Furthermore, His Honor claimed
a hotel or saloon was not intended
to DC gathering place for boon
companions, but a place where the
travelling pIblic could be accommo-
dated. Hence it was not necessary
to fill up any neighborhood with
saloons in order to accommod ate
the people living in that neighbo,-
hood. In conclusion, His Honor
said:
Certain communities of labor
ing men, with large families de-
pending upon wages too small for
bare existence, are filled with grog-
geries, which debauch the men,
crush the women, debase the child
ren and disturb the peace And
this situation will surely go from
bad to worse, beyond redemption
or rectifcation, until the slate is
wiped Clean for fresh start.

Orange Hatters Ask That They
Be Allowed to Go TO
Work.

Superintendent James Riggs. Of the
Orange public schools. is being besieged
with applications from the families OF
hatters in the Oranges asking that their
children be excused from school and
allowed TO go 70 work The school
head has had several conferences with
the principals of the various schools To
discuss the best way to meet the re-
quests OF the parents.
Conditions are said 10 be due 70 the
hatters' strike Of a year ago. during
which thousands Of men were idle for
q long period. The Foster Street School.
which is in the heart OF the hatting
district Is the one most affected.
1t Is thought probable that an in
vestigation will be made 50 that the
wages paid in the factories to the
fathers Of the children whose Services
are desired may be learned in order
that i may be seen whether or not
they are sufficient to support the fam
lily. If this is found to be so. the chill
dren viii not be allowed to stay away
from school.
