vestigation.
Goulder denied the statement and
said that he had been entirely frank
in his testimony.
William Livingston of Detroit and
Joseph Stewart, second assistant post
master general, were also witnesses at
the inquiry into the charges that the
league had reflected upon the integ-
rity of Stevenson and other members
of congress in connection with ship
subsidy legislation.
Goulder testified that he had indorsed
note for $4,000 which he had placed
in a bank to the credit of the league:
that he did not know the source of the
note, whether it came from membership
dues or from the officers of the league
themselves.

COUNTRY LIFE COMMISSION.

One result of the second national
conservation congress in st. Paul,
Sept. So may be the revival of the
country life commission, a Roosevelt
project which fell by the wayside af-
ter Representative Tawney of Mimi
esota had succeeded in having an
amendment which put it out of busi-
ness tackled on to the sundry civil
bill In his speech before the con-
gress on Sept. 6 Col. Roosevelt is ex-
pected to have something to say con-
cerning the country life commission
and he no doubt will throw his energy
into the fight to have the commits
sion restored to good standing.
President Taft likewise may say
something on the subject and move
ment is likely to result that will end
in urging congress to appropriate
sufficient funds to carry on the work.
If the plans of certain persons inter-
ested in the matter are carried out
there may result sort of attiliation
between the national conservation
commission and the country life COM
mission. The matter will be present
ed to the conservation congress by
Walter H. Page, editor of World
Work, who is on the programme to
speak on The Farmer and the Ma
ton"
James j. Hill, chairman of the
Great NoPhern Railway board, who
always has the interests of the farm
er at heart, probably will take up the
matter in his address on Crops, Food
and Clothing" Clifford Pinchot may
also have something to say on the
subject Liberty Hyde Bailey, dean
of the Agricultural college of Cornell
university; Kenyon l.. Butterield of
Massachusetts and Charles S. Barrett
of Georgia are going to lend their
assistance to the movement, as is
Henry Wallace of Des Moines, Ia.
The appointment of the country life
commission by President Roosevelt
attracted considerable attention. 1t
was intended as an uplift for the
farmer and an improving of farm
conditions Editorial in Port Jeryis

BATHING NUISANCE IN HAwLEY.

We are glad to see that Hawley,
too, is tired of and disgusted with
the indecencies of the tightless bath
ers. Listen to the Hawley Times:
Numerous complaints have been
made about boys, and in some in
stances even men, bathing in the
Lackawaxen within the borough lin
its. The practice is confined princi-
pally to that portion lying north of
Hawley and along the Erie railroad
The complaints are based upon the
fact that in almost every instance no
bathing suit is worn and the bathers
appear to be absolutely oblivious to
passersby.
The attention Of bathers is di-
rected to the fact that there is a law
against such practices. The COM
plants heard have been numerous
and those making them say that un-
less the practice is stopped some
action will be taken in the matter.
The complainants have no desire to
stop bathers from enjoying the sport,
uuJ lllCH uO lOl WISH W nave lutlI
sensibilities shocked by daily ex-
hibitions. Moreover, the outlines ex-
hibited are not such as would startle
Grecian sculptor. A bathing suit
costs but trifle and its use is
much more dignified and fashionable.
The Citizen has proposed a remedy
for this nuisance in Honesdale. Pos
sibly the Times, a good law and order
paper in the borough to the south
of here, will advocate the same meth
Cd of procedure against the tight
less scamps that are an eyesore to
the decent people of Hawley. Print
the names of the bathers and print
the names of the shameless women
that stand and watch them. That
will put the lid on the obnoxious
practice if anything can,

CARBoNDALE ADMIREs US.
May Not Like Maple City Ballwise,
But Admits Honesdale's Push.

The Carbondale Leaders "perti-
nent and personal paragrapher got
busy Wednesday night and this is
what he wrote:
Is Honesdale a slow and sleepy
town? II may be all right for rival
baseball teams to talk that kind of
talk when trying to boost the in
terest in the national game, but it
must be admitted that that city has
shown as much energy for munich
pal progress as any town in the
country, not excepting anything west
of the Mississippi.
One of their latest doings is to
offer site free for any industrial
concern which will locate there. A
public-spirited citizen of the town
who owns a large lot alongside a
railroad switch, has also offered this
free without any strings attached
to any coming industry which wants
1t.
They have also taken steps to in
corporate into a Greater Honesdale
and, besides, a magnificent hotel is
to be built on the famous Irving
cliff, on the site of the one which
burned years ago.
They did something at their board
of trade meeting the other night over
there which will surely be printed in
the Erie timetable in the joke col
umn. and that was to pass a resolu-
tion thanking the Erie railroad for
the new passenger service recently
installed. The idea of anybody
ever thanking the Erie for anything
or the Erie being entitled to thanks
is thus for the first time brought to
public attention.
One sure thing is that there is no
thanks coming to the Erie from
this town, and we'd be just as ready
as anybody to bestow it were it de-
served. Maybe they will feel so
gratified over these Honesdale thanks
that they will try to do better all
along the line.

NO ONE BACKING THE GANG.

There doesn't appear to be the
slightest enthusiasm over the FLlNN-
VAN VALKENBURG gangs BRYAN
Democracy ticket.
The Prohibitionists do not like it,
nor the platform; the regular Demo-
Gratis have spoken out in no uncer-
tain terms regarding the whole thing,
including Bolter BERRY, who heads
the ticket; throughout the state there
has developed nothing but stand
off, critical attitude, and even d.
CLARENCE GIBBONEY, who has
never before been chary about run
ming for Office, was dubious about be-
ing one of the candidates.
, 1t is not very encouraging to the
North American in its wide-open ad-
vocacy of BRYAN and BERRY, and
to the few disgruntled ex-ofticehold-
ers and would-be officeholders, the
political soldiers of fortune, who COM
prise the FLINN-VAN VALKEN-
BURG gang that has banded togeth-
er in an abortive effort to get con-
troll of place and power in the state
for their own selfish purposes.
These and few persistent cranks
who have long tried to dictate how
the state shall be conducted without
ever having got commission to do
SO from the people constitute the en-
tire backing of the Keystoners.
1t does not look very encouraging
for them. In fact, it would not ap-
pear that they have the ghost OF
show.

Don't live to eat, but eat to live.
Many of our ills are due to over
eating, to eating the wrong things,
and to irregular eating.
Don't be too ambitious; the can
ker of an oyervaulting ambition has
eaten up the happiness of many a
life and shortened its years.
Take regular exercise in the open
air every day in all weathers; walk,
ride, row, swim, or play; but, what
ever you do, keep out of doors as
much as possible.
Put some beauty into your life
every day by seeing beautiful works
of art, beautiful scenery, or by read
ing some noble poem or selection in
prose.

CATARRH CANNOT BE CURED

CATARRH CANNOT BE CURED
with LOCAL APPLICATIONS, as
they cannot reach the seat of the
disease. Catarrh is a blood or con-
stitutional disease, and in orger to
cure it you must take internal reme-
dies. Halls Catarrh Cure is taken
internally, and acts directly on the
blood and mucous surfaces. Halls
Catarrh Cure is not a quack medi-
cine. 1t was prescribed by one of
the best physicians in this country
for years and is a regular prescrip-
tion. 1t is composed of the best
tonics known, combined with the
best blood purifiers, acting directly
on the mucous surfaces. The per-
feet combination of the two ingred-
tents is what produces such Won
derful results in curing Catarrh.

The fan" vote is confidently
counted on in behalf of the Republi-
can candidate for governor of Penn
sylvania. Mr.. Tener was formerly a
baseball pitcher.-Proyidence Jour
nal.
Now that little inkshot from the
Rhode Island capital is supposed to
be real funny, and it is quite possible
that in Providence, where the per-
sonal equation is of far more i'm
portance than real mental or moral
fitness in candidates, the political as
pirant who used to play ball would
lead his ticket because he once was
a diamond luminant; but in practical
Pennsylvania, where gubernatorial
and other state ticket candidates are
picked out for their experience, their
honesty and their gray matter, the
"fan vote" is quite a negligible
quantity. There are Pennsylvania
Republicans and Pennsylvania Dem
ocrats and Pennsylvania independ-
dents who love to go to ball games,
and who worship at the shrine of the
man in the box who can strike out
the side with three men on bags and
the crowd trying to rattle the pitch
er, and who would give their last
23 cents to get into the grandstand

high public callings in this state be-
cause they can play ball. Mr.. TENER

ognized in him the man to keep the

that brought about his nomination

Within the past week wholesale
robberies of homes have been COM
mitted at Nazareth, Easton and Beth
lehem, and in every instance the jobs
bore the earmarks of tramp work.
Just a week ago a barn was burned
at Vera Cruz, and, since spring, quite
few incendiary fires have occurred,
all of which may, without any stretch
of imagination, be laid to the door of
tramps. Something should be done,
and quickly, to rid the country OF
this evil. When men decide that dis
honesty is the easiest policy it's hard
to get them to do any honest work,
and but one thing remains-punish-
ment Thirty days in jail for this
class means little more than thirty
days free board-in fact, in winter
time the regulation hobo likes moth
ing better than a vacation indoors
with no worry about where the next
meal is coming from. More drastic
punishment, and more arrests OF
these wandering social pests, would
result in better conditions, we be-
lieve, and robberies, as well as 9th
er outrages, would be fewer through
out the entire country.
