A SERIOUS QUESTION.

From the number of mysterious
fires Honesdale has experienced dur
ing the past few months, it would
appear that there is some reason
for them. In almost every instance
there had been no fire where the con-
flagration started. All of these fires
were in brick buildings, which are
supposed to be almost fire proof, and
business places, too. Is there fire
bug operating in our community, or
is there need of a rigid examination
of the electric wiring of the buildings
of Honesdale?
We prefer to think the latter. Take
for instance the Leine fire. The pro-
prietor, when asked by one of this
papers representatives as to how
long his store had been wired, re-
piled fifteen years. A further ques-
tion brought forth the remark that
no changes nor repairs had been
made during this time, neither did
any OF the different insurance in
spectors, who had inspected the
store, make any recommendations OF
authorize any alterations in the
wiring.
Does this signify that the wires
were all right, or on the other hand
did the examiners make a hasty in.
spection and mark wiring o. X?
| This is a serious question and one
| that ought to be followed up. Some
| competent person, party or parties
ought to be placed in authority tC
examine every store, tenament, fac
tory and church in Honesdale. j
this were done it might expose {
number of places where there is de
fectiye wiring and may be the mean!
of saving considerable property. The
continuance of fires in brick build
ings in Honesdale might possibly
lead to a raise of insurance rates
Have the examination and then VIZ
will all know the condition of oul
buildings and will feel easier, anC
not live in suspense fearing that we
too, might have similar experiences.
1t has been stated that by the in
stallation of several additional fire
hydrants that it would have a ten
dency to decrease the fire rates. No
as long as we have fires and especi
ally in brick buildings, will there b,

TubercuIar Serum VIII Give I'm.
munity.

Chicago-A newt serum which it's
discoverer believes gives immunity
from tuberculosis has been announc-
ed. The discoverer is DR.. Karl Won
Ruck, of Asheville, N. C. First re-
ports of the experiments on which he
basis his contentious were given to
the Chicago Medical society in a pa
per prepared by Dr.. Won Ruck.
DR.. Won Ruck has discovered a
vaccine which he says will kill the
germs of tuberculosis in a latent
stage and makes the subject immune
form form further ravages of the
disease.
Experiments made upon children
and counter experiments made upon
animals are said to have demon
strated the value of the discovery.
DR.. Won Ruck does not yet claim it
will cure consumption in its ad-
vanced stages.
All l feel justified in claiming"
says the physician, " is that | am the
first to have made a successful ad-
vent in this most important and
promising field of specific prophylaxis
in a disease that leads the mortality

THE DEMOCRATIC PRESIDEN'
TIAL CAMPAIGN.

The Democratic presidential cam
more interesting and exciting cam
paign in the ranks of the Republican
party. Nevertheless our Democratic
friends have had their own troubles
and their own eXcitements in the
contest for the presidential nomina-
ton. So far it is anybody's race and
no mans victory. Early in the cam
paign it was Woodrow Wilson
against the field, with strong indi-
cations of his ultimate victory. But
of late Wilson has shown much
weakness in the primaries. Champ
Clark has developed unexpected
strength, and Underwood has more
than held his own. In the Demo
cratic convention it will require a
three-fourths vote to nomipate. 1t
is extremely doubtful whether any
candidate will go into the convention
with a majority of the delegates.
While Wilson represents the Progress
sive wing of the Democracy, Under
wood and Harmon the conservative
element, and Champ Clark the low
tariff faction, it is believed that nc
one of them has sufficient personal
strength to unite on himself a suffi'
cient number of the supporters oi
the other candidates to secure his
own nomination.
Talk of dark horse is therefore
becoming more and more prevalent
and the one whose name in tha'
| connection bobs up with the mos
! persistency is that chronic seeker
after the presidency William ]
Bryan. Mr.. Bryan has not announc
ed himself as candidate. No dele
gates are being elected in his be
half. Neither, let it be observed
has he attached himself to thu
fortunes of any of the candidate
now in the field. Mr.. Bryan is al
astute politician. When the hour il
ripe, when the convention, afte,
numerous ballots, has failed t.
agree on a candidate, Mr.. Bryan viii
come up smiling. And if a kint
Providence should order a stamped
of the delegates to Mr.. Bryan's tent
the big chief will not put away tn
preferred honor.
