We refer the Independent to its
files about two years ago and there,
in black and white, see how much
boom-matter it contained concerning
Honesdale. Then upon another oc-
casion, when Honesdale experienced
an Old Home Week, how that journal
thought the time was not right for
like celebration. Despite the opposi-
ton elected into that paper by the
power behind the throne Old Home
Week was the most successful cele-
bration of its kind Honesdale ever
experienced. To cap the climax the
Independent, in an editorial, in last
Fridays issue, literally took the
credit of obtaining the Gurney Elec-
tric Elevator company's new estab-
lishment. If the Independent has
change of heart many more times
people won't know where it stands.

DIR GURNEY EDITION SCORED A
HIT,

That the Board of Trade, reading
public, out-of-town newspapers, and
people in general appreciated The
Citizens special write-up concerning
the Gurney Electric Elevator COM
pany's proposed new establishment,
which appeared in last Fridays issue,
is evinced by the many compliment
tary and fattering remarks we have
since heard.
The Citizen was the first Homes
dale paper to present this exceeding
ly glad and good news to the public.
Shortly after the paper had gone to
press a bulletin containing the full
details of this new acquisition for
Honesdale, was placed at the en-
trance of the Citizen Office on Main
street. The leading headline was
played-up in red ink and immediate
ly caught the readers eye. Ihe
first, fourth and fifth pages contain
ed special pictures of local men who
helped acquire this industry and
illustrated the article. An exclusive
cut of the block plan of the large fac
tory appeared on the first page.
There was a big demand for The Cit
izen, we being compelled to print
second edition of that paper. The
issue scored hit and from reports
we feel repaid for our efforts. II
we attempted to print the compli-
mentary remarks we heard concern
ing the Gurney number it would
more than fill the forty-eight col
umns of this paper. We, however,
will not outgrow the size of our hat,
but will keep right along progressive
lines and continue to give the people
of Honesdale and Wayne county as
good a newspaper as is published.

NEW INDUSTRIES.
Scranton Times.l

That the little borough of Homes
dale should be able to go out and get
big elevator plant which means the
erection of a 100000 building and
employment of four hundred men is
big thing, and when it is realized
that 1t expects to do business
close to $2,O00,000 year it impress
ses one emphatically.
Honesdale is one of the most de-
'lightful towns in this section of the
state to live in. 1t is essentially in
an agricultural community. 1t has
not the railroads that Scranton is
blessed with, nor has it the fuel at
the back door as has Scranton, but
what 1t lacks in this it makes up in
energy and enterprise and none will
dare but say that it is entitled to the
new industry. That it has a live
board of trade is indicated by its sue
cess after a years efforts to get the
plant. What fine thing it would be
could Scranton get an industry of
such magnitude, particularly since
the Allis-Chalmers company closed
shop. The big empty building that
this company left is hard to pass by
without feeling the loss it represent
ed when the company quit here. It's
windows are still boarded and it's
doors fastened. 1t is waiting for a
tenant. Maybe the board of trade
will get one.
That so big a building should
stand idle in the heart of the city
and with such facilities as are to be
had is not creditable nor encourag-
ing to the industries that remain.
Surely somewhere in this country
there is an industry to take its place.
Honesdale got an elevator plant.
Mayhap Scranton can not get one,
but how about that automobile plant
we heard of from time to time in the
last year? The board of trade is
devoting itself to getting a thousand
members, and is meeting with rea-
sonable success. 1t ought not be for
gotten, however, that a big member
ship is not always necessary to get
an industry. Sometimes three men
can do more than hundred. The
Scranton Board of Trade has good
material in it and We do not doubt
that properly directed energy will re-
suit in new industries to fill the gaps.
AS an example, Honesdale furnishes
a lesson that is interesting and hope

carried out in all presidential cleo
tions up to and including the cleo
ton of 1896. The electors felt free
to use their own judgment as to
whom they should vote for, and there
were many scattering votes in the
electoral colleges. But in the fourth
presidential election the line between
the two great parties, Federalist and
was closely drawn, each
party put its candidate in the field,
and electors were chosen, morally II
not actually, pledged to vote for the
candidate of the party that had ap-
pointed them. From that day to the
present there has not been a single
instance of an elector boiling or be-
traying the candidate named by his
party. While there is no written
law that binds an elector to vote for
his party's candidate for the presi-
dency he is nevertheless as fully
bound to do so by the law of custom
and political morality, as though not
to do so worked a violation of the
criminal code. Indeed political SEN
timent concerning the matter is such
in the United States that a presiden-
tial elector who should fail to vote
for his party's candidate for the pres
dency might as we'll expatriate him
self at once. He would receive and
probably deserve the obloquy of all
good citizens as long as he should
live.
1t is hardly supposable therefore
that any Republican presidential
elector now nominated and to be
chosen at the polls in November,
will break away from the moral
precedent established more than a
century ago, and observed without a
break to the present time. Declara-
tions of excited politicians that this
may be done in the event of GER
tain nomination being made at Chi
cago should not be taken seriously.
No matter who receives the Republi-
can nomination at Chicago, the Re-
publican electors who will be elected
in November will cast their votes for
him in the electoral college. To do
otherwise would be a betrayal OF
trust and breaking of faith such as
would bring a condemnation so Sc
we're and lasting that no man would
dare to face it. 1t is pretty sure that
those who are reckoning on a bolt
by electors are reckoning without
their host.

PRESIDENTIAL ELECTORS.

In view of certain suggestions
that have recently been made con-
cerning the duties and privileges of
presidential electors, it may be of
interest to consider briefly their pre-
negatives under the federal consti-
tuition. This constitution was adopt
ed in 1887 and the section relating
to presidential electors was amend
ed in 1904. AS it now stands each
state is entitled to be represented in
the electoral college by "a number
of electors equal to the whole num-
ber of senators and representatives
to which the state may be entitled in
the congress-" 1t was the purpose
of the trainers of the constitution to
leave the selection of president en-
tirely to this body of electors who
were expected to be men of judg-
ment, patriotism and impartiality.
Party nominations for the office
were not then contemplated. This
idea of the constitution makers was

issue, and members of the Board of
Trade pledged the remaining $780,

industry comprises about five acres.
Honesdale is naturally expecting to
reap large profit on this invest

dividends, but also in employment

workmen who will make their home

Board of Trade More Than Name.

The Pittston Gazette of last Fri

complimentary tribute to Honesdale
and it's progressive Board of Trade:
The Greater Honesdale Board of
Trade is more than name. This is
shown by the announcement that, af-
ter many months of negotiating and
planning, it has succeeded in induc-
ing the Gurney Electric Elevator Co.,
which does a business of million
and a half dollars a year, to locate
it's new manufacturing establish
ment in that town. The Honesdale
Citizen devotes large portion of it's
issue to-day to the interesting and in
structive story of how the important
transaction was accomplished. To
show the magnitude of the task un-
dertaken by a small town, it is only
necessary to say that in order to Sc
cure the industry, it was necessary
to raise 100000, the money to be
furnished as a loan to the elevator
company, secured by five per cent.

active work on the farm and went to
Carbondale to make his home with
his daughter. During the many
years that he labored on his farm
Mr.. Simpson made frequent trips

Catarrh Of Stomach
and Stomach Agony
Quickly Ended.

If you went to thirty doctors and
paid each his fee for a prescription
for indigestion or stomach misery it
is ten chances to one you wouldn't
get such a good prescription as the
one from which MI-O-NA stomach
tablets are made.
How can such a thing be? you
naturally ask.
Simply because the man who wrote
the prescription from which MI-O-NA
tablets are made knows more about
stomach diseases than SO per cent. of
all the physicians in America, and he
gets paid for knowing.
And when you can get large box
of tablets made from this doctors

you going to continue to suffer ?
