Democrats Knew of Guffey's Troubles

Announcement of the appointment
of receiver to take charge of the
affairs of Col. J. M. Guffey created
little surprise in Allentown. At the
time of the Munson fiasco in the
Democratic state convention, held
there a month ago, assertions were
openly made by some of the leading
members of the party in Lehigh
that Munson's withdrawing was due
to Guffey's financial difficulties.
Few persons there at the time be-
lieved these assertions, but the lead
er of the Democratic party in Lehigh
county, a man much dissatisfied with
the outcome of the convention, de-
clared it was true, and said Col
Guffey even at that time had asked
two extensions from his creditors.

In some way this piece of paper be-

patron handed the druggist the first
piece that public servant at once
measured out the ammonia salt it
called for, and placed the small vial
before his customer.
"How much?" asked the patron,
"Ten cents"
"Oh, beg pardon!" said the pur-
chaser, at this juncture finding the
remainder OF the prescription in his
pocket. This piece says to add

cary, dumping the contents of the
small vial into a four-ounce bottle and
adding the required water. There you
are, sir, forty cents more, please
What! Ten cents for ammonia
and forty cents for the water?"
Exactly. The doctors name writ

This stare For Annles.

Washington, California, Colorado,
Oregon, Idaho, Montana and Utah are
the great apple producers of this
country. A dispatch from Spokane
notes that $1,000 carloads of apples,
consisting of 100000 boxes, will
be shipped from that vast American
orchard to the eastern markets this
season, have been contracted for by
the great wholesale fruit houses of
New York, Boston and Philadelphia.
II is not necessary to suggest that an
apple crop of such magnitude is
great thing financially for the states
of the northwest. What is of great
er concern to Pennsylvania is, we
have the word of State Zoologist
Surface that the soil of the Keystone
state is so admirably adapted to ap-
pie culture that If our agriculturists
would devote their attention to the
growing of apples along scientific
lines, Pennsylvania would be the
greatest apple orchard in the world.
We have called attention to this i'm
portant matter before, but it will
bear repetition and emphasis. Prof.
Surface believes thoroughly in Penn
sylvania as a fruit-growing state, and
those of our farmers who have TAX
en- his advice and devoted their at
tention to the growing of apples
and other fruit have been abundantly
repaid. Editorial in Pittston Ga
zette.

Gorernment hr Commission.

Several cities of Pennsylvania are
at the present time giving some at
tention to what has been denominat-
ed the commission form of govern
ment. Among them we can recall
off-hand Williamsport, Erie and Har-
risburg. In each of these municipal
tiles the subject is being agitated by
those persons who believe IL would
be an improvement over the present
system.
1t has never been seriously consid-
cred here. In fact, it can scarcely
be said to have been considered at
all Around city hall, where such
matters are discussed, along with
other municipal problems, it has Of
ten been superfcially talked about,
but it was more or less regarded as
some utopian idea that looked tri-
umphant in theory but promised
poor prospects in practice.
Nevertheless, 1t is a subject that
is coming rapidly to the fore. One
reason for this is the seeming sue
cess it has attained in those cities
where it has been in operation for
some years. Advocates of the COM
mission plan declare, and not with
out some degree of truth, that the
present division of authority among
municipal officers is inimical to the
best interests of all. They say it
breeds inefficiency, costs more, di-
vides responsibility, begets indiffer-
enCe, etc.
On the other hand, they maintain
that the commission plan abolishes
party politics in local affairs, elimi-
mates the politician and the CRATER,
makes municipality a business en-
terprise, establishes direct RESPONSE
bility, promotes economy and abol-
ishes a lot of sinecures and political
rewards by substituting organization
and method.
At the approaching municipal con-
vention at York the commission plan
is likely to come in for large share
of the attention of the delegates.
Our own Mayor Hoyer expects to
start the ball rolling by a paper on
the subject. In view of his extensive
experience in municipal affairs. first
as councilman and thrice as mayor,
he ought to be in a position to say
something vitality interesting, as we
understand that he is inclined to look
with favor upon the change. At all
events he can speak with the author
ity of knowledge of the defects he
has found in the present system, as
and we may look for an expert opin-
ion. Editorial in Altoona Mirror.

A FEW DONTS.

Don't fail to sound your town S
praises wherever you are.
Don't make your money out of it's
citizens and spend it somewhere else.
Don't frown on every public i'm
provement simply because it will
cost you dollar or two.
Don't sneer at the efforts of your
fellow citizens to build up the town
but lend a hand yourself.
Don't talk great deal about what
should be done and remain on the
back seat waiting for someone else
to do it.
Don't say board of trade is mo
good on earth" until you can prove
it by statistics.
Don't say the public schools are
a failure because your boy has been
upsetting the schools discipline and
been punished for it.
Don't stay at home on election
day, but get out and hustle for
good men and good government.
Don't let a good local paper that
is the towns untiring champion
abandon the champion business be-
cause of lack of deserved patronage.
Don't forget to drop your dollar
in the slot when the committee that
is after new enterprise comes
around with the subscription list.
Don't forget that in building up
the town hearty cooperation, united
endeavor and a spirit of get-there
are what win the day. There is no
pull like long pull, a strong pull
and a pull together.
