TENER REMOVES

He Claims TO Hold Capitol
Graft Confession.
WON'T PART WITH PAPER
Chief Factory Inspector Claims Con-
tractor sanderson Left Document In
His Care and Hints at New culprits.

Governor Tener dismissed from Of
nee John C. Delaney, the Pennsylvania
state factory inspector. "f& the good
of the service"
Captain Delaney has for several
weeks past been under charges of
lax enforcement of the state factory
laws. Last Friday he gave an inter-
view to a Philadelphia newspaper, in
which he said he had in his posses
sion an alleged Confession" made by
John H. Sanderson, the state capitol
contractor, who was convicted of fraud
and died pending his appeal.
In this alleged Confession" De
laney said, Sanderson declared that
9he real culDrits in the capitol scandal
never had been apprehended nor had
their names ever been mentioned In
4he course of the investigation.
Captain Delaney also said that the
confession" was locked in a safe, aud
its contents never would be revealed
by him. Mr.. Sanderson's widow, now
a resident of New York, Captain De
laney added, was the only person who
might ever reveal the secret of the
hidden paper She, he said, might d
so at some future time in order to y.n-
dicate her husbands memory.
Pennypacker is the only one to date.
who can be sure that the breath o
suspicion will not demand an explsna
zion, for he is the only one in cOnnec
tion with the gigantic and c.im nal
grab who. Delaney says, lis as fe
from any part in the division OF II
spoils as a newborn babe"
The true reason for the astoun1inp
revelation of Delaney that he has sIch
a confession win be searched for D.. /
Attorney General BeI, who will confer
with GOva nor Tcner Captain De !
laney will be present at this con ser
ence and will be asked who are tn
"bigger men" named in the confession
and never brought to justice.
Delaney has said that he was of
fered 100000 for this confession, and
that he refused it; that he will no
make it public under any consider
ation unless the widow OF Sanderson
says that she is will that he should
do so.
Why Delaney should refuse 100000
for the paper and nov stir up the dis
4uieting suspicions it will be the duty
of public officials to point out
Former Governor Pennypacker is
very anxious that Delaney should turn
ever the confession to the attorney
general. but there is considerable
doubt in the minds of lawyers that he
can be made to do so. Even if the
statute of limitations has expi-ed, if
any politicians are connected with the
capitol scandal they can be driven
from public life by the publicity given
them.
Delaney does not propose to willing
y part with this dynamite-laden docu-
ment.
No man viii ever know its entire
while 1 have anything to do
with it," he said. "or unless Mrs. San
lerson would desire its publication.
Even then am not sure that l would
let it out Of my possession. All that l
viii say is that the big men who were
guilty escaped"

The throat is the gateway to the body.

very easily affected by cold, strain, ex-
posure, ETC., and Sore Throat is therefore
one Of our most common ailments.
strangely enough, it is also one Of the

Sore Throat is a very serious matter,

other serious or fatal diseases, all of which
can be prevented by the timely cure of the

SAVING THE HILLSIDE SOILS
Some Practical Suggestions for Man.
agement Of Fields That Have
Been Badly Washed Away.

You have noticed that the soil on
the sidehill field has washed badly
the last few years. Ever wonder
what was the reason for this increased
water action? Do you wish to stop it ?
Humus. the decaying vegetable mat.
ter in the soil, tends to prevent this
erosion. Humus absorbs moisture and
retains It, When the soil contains an
abundance of humus the soil particles
are kept apart and they can absorb
more water. The soil Is open and the
water tends to soak into the ground
instead of run off. Therefore, one Of
the best ways Of preventing erosion Is
to keep the soil full of humus. Have
the grasses or legumes occupy prom
inent place In the rotation for the hill
side fields.
Perhaps some bad gullies have
formed In your field and you desire
to fill them up. If SO. make the force
Of the gullIes-thc force that washed
them out-fill them up. Place brush
In the bitches with the tops upstream
and 1t will catch and hold the material
washed down, Even better method,
however, Is the use Of the woyen.wire
dam. Place stake on each side OF
the gully, three feet from the bank.
and fasten a piece Of woven wire to
them. Place old hay above this wire
and 1t will catch almost all OF the ma.
terial washed by the water. The gully
will thea fill up. When It reaches the
top of the woven wire put on another
strip and repeat the process.
Soil erosion can never be prevented
entirely, but It can be greatly reduced
by regard for ina principle OF pro
per soil management
