be stated, however, that these Chau-
tauquas are not conducted for profit.
The Association is chartered as a
mo Profit" stock organization and it
seeks simply to provide a high grade
program which shall be of real value
to the community with the hope of
covering the expenses only. This
should appeal to our citizens as most
of the organizations which seek to
operate in our town desire to make
as large profits as possible.
DR.. A. E. Turner, associate direc-
tor of the Chautauqua Association,
spoke to a small number in the Ii
brary room of the high school Fri
day evening and his manner was
convincing. 1t certainly would be
a good thing for the town and it's
cost would not exceed seven cents for
each feature on the program. Little
more than the price of a ticket to
the moving pictures. Yet the citi-
zens of Honesdale would get eVerlast
ing benefit and be privileged to hear
great orators. Some of the noted
men on the Chautauqua program are
Governor Hadley of Missouri; Pres
ident Taft, William Jennings Bryan
and others. This is an affair for

tent physician or surgeon and after
the approval of the board of trus-
tees of the institution and of the
Court of Common Pleas of the prop
er county.
North, or Jefferson, proposes to
make the job of road viewer under
the new system even more desirable
than at present by adding to the sal
ary of $4,000 all the actual and
necessary expenses involved in the
transaction of their business or the
course of their duties.
For Industrial Relief.
Seven proposed laws providing for
workmen's compensation, employ
ers' liability, liability insurance, pre-
vention of industrial ACCIDENTS, limit
ing the hours of employment for
women and minors, and proposing a
constitutional amendment permitting
the enactment of compulsory COM
pensation act, all originating with
the Governors Commission on In
dustrial Accidents, were introduced
into the House by Representative
Daniel j. Shern, of Philadelphia.
The bills are based on the princi-
pie of optional compensation, as pro-
vided in most of the States, the en-
ployer and employe being permitted
to forego the stipulated compensa-
tion in the act, provided they def
nitely reach such an agreement, and
file it with the State, but all the old
defenses against employers liability,
such as the fellow-servant rule, the
assumption of risk by the employe,
or the negligence of the injured him
self, short of drunkenness or reck-
less disregard of danger, are remov-
ed, practically forcing the employers
to come in under the law.
Installment compensation, paid
weekly, and based on percentage
of the wages paid to the injured en-
ploye, is also adopted, in the place
of lump payments. The act gives a
schedule of compensations beginning
with % per cent. of the weekly wa
ges to the employe who leaves only
a widow or widower or one depend
ent, and ranging to 60 per cent, ac-
cording to the number of depend
ents remaining. Compensation for
a child ends at 16 years of age. The
compensation is reckoned on salaries
ranging lGOm ludAlluuu Ol 9ZU d
week down to $40.
Bill Will Abolish Negligence Plea
If the bill introduced by Repre-
sentative Shern of Philadelphia, be-
come law defense setting UP neg
ligence of the victim as cause of an
accident will rarely avail in damage
suits. The hill was prepared by the
Industrial Accident Commission.
Only where the employe himself
is intoxicated or recklessly indiffer-
ent will a defense of negligence be
allowed. The employer, by the
Shern bill, is made liable for the
negligence of all employees while
they are employed.
An elective system of compensa-
ton to be paid to the employe in
the event of death or disability is
provided. This contract made be-
tween employer and employe, if con-
tanning a clause that the employe is
not bound by the act, must be filed
with the Bureau of Industrial Sta
tistics. If such a contract is not
filed the act is held in force.

TUBERCULOSIS CURE.

1t is reported that President
Charles Finley, of the Aetna Nation
al bank, of New York, is very much
disappointed that DR.. F. F. Fried
mann, the Berlin scientist, has not
started for this country to lay claim
to Mr.. Finley's offer of S1,OOO,OOO
for positive cure of tuberculosis.
Mr.. Finley has made the generous
offer in order to demonstrate wheth-
er the claims that DR.. Friedman
has a cure for tuberculosis are true.
AS he states it, one of two things
is true; either Friedmann's cure is
a cure or it is a failure. Mr. Finley
is willing to spare no expense to get
the German doctor here and have
the matter settled beyond a doubt.
This effort to determine whether
there is a remedy that will check
the great white plague other than
the slow open air methods that are
bringing many back to health, is
certainly one of the most commend
able undertakings of the modern
philanthropist. A cure that would
work against tuberculosis as the
vaccine and serums have operated
against smallpox and diphtheria
would be a boon of immeasurable
good.

London, Feb. 10.--Latest news from

bardment of Adrianople to be inces-

fiercest character.

The Legislature of the State of
Washington, which went strongly for
Roosevelt at the last election, has
just rejected bill providing for the
recall of Judges next year, if the
voters desire to do so. 1t is becom-
ing daily more evident from such
acts as this that there is a remark
able discrepancy between the vote
cast for the Bull Moose candidate
and the influence which his follow
ers can exert in legislation. Our
own State Legislature gives proof
of this. The Judicial recall was one
of the Colonels pet ideas, but it is
making very slow progress, if any
at all, throughout the country. A
number of recent events, such as the
Impeachment of Judge Archibald and
the conviction of Becker in New
York, show that the Courts can be
stirred by public sentiment to
prompt action, and that an unfaith-
ful Judge can be brought to book
without great delay. The vote of
more than three-quarters of the
States for an income tax amend
ment to the Constitution is also vir-
tual1y recall Of the decision Of the
United States Supreme Court, which
had held, by vote of five to four,
that such law was unconstitution-
al. These are more satisfactory
methods of accomplishing results
than the ColoneIs quick-action
schemes.

TOO CROWDED AT SING SING.
Two Men In Cells Six Feet by Three,
Commissioner Reports.

Albany. n. Y, Feb. 10.-Crowding
two men in Il cell 3 by feet, necessi-
tated by the increasing population of
Sing Sing prison, is condition which
Henry Solomon of the state prison
commission says should not be permit
ted to exist. He recommends the erec-
ton Of a new prison to take the place
of the present OvercrOwded institution.
The prison population on the day Mr..
Solomon inspected the institution was
1,402. "There are 1,200 cells. each
measuring about 3 by feet, which is
not nearly large enough for one occu-
pant" says the commissioner in a re-
port, so one can easily imagine how
terribly unhealthy they must be when
there has to be two in cell, which
must happen so long as the population
is greater than the normal accommoda-
tions."

HARRISBURG LETTER

The Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives adjourned Thursday to
convene again to-day. The Senate
adjourned after the calendar had
been cleared of first and second
reading bills to meet again Monday
night. The House adjourned Thurs
day afternoon.
Mercantile Tax Stays.
Mercantile license repeal bills
were turned down by the Commit
tee on Ways and Means of the House
Thursday after a heated argument in
executive session, by a vote of IL to
7.
The claims of the politicians to the
many lucrative appraiserships in all
parts of the State, especially Phila-
delphia, are looked upon by the ad-
vocates of the repeal as the real
source of the opposition, and they
threaten to carry the matter to the
floor of the House, where the fight
will be resumed and the political in
fluence against the bill is to be dis
closed.
If the fight is made it will prob
ably be the first under the new rules,
which aim to make it easier for bills
negatived by the committee to be
| placed upon the calendar and to be
considered by the house, regardless
of committee action. 1t requires but
60 votes to override the will of the
committee and place bills on the cal
! endar, and the advocates of the mer-
| camille license repeal, well-organiZed
in all parts of the state, declare that
they will easily muster the required
number.
The Income Tax Amendment to
/ the Federal Constitution was report
ed out of committee with a favorable
recommendation. This amendment
is already a part of the Constitution,
and Thursdays action is mere
formality to put the Pennsylvania
Legislature on record on the subject.
It may yet meet objection on the
floor.
Bills For Social Justice.
More social and industrial JUS
tice" bills came into the House
Thursday, Representative w. b
Heidinger, of Philadelphia, being re-
sponsible for three of them, COM
pelling physicians to report occu-
pational diseases to the Bureau OF
Vital Statistics, as the basis for a
study OF the diseases and their pre-
vention; requiring employers to re-
port accidents of all kinds to the
State Department of Factory lnspec-
ton, and requiring that working peo'
pie in stores and factories shall have
one day of rest in seven.

to the House another measure aim
ing to give Philadelphia large State
aid for the development of the Del
: aware River. The bill carries will
it an appropriation of $2,50O,000 tt

NEGRO SAVED $4,000.
Worked Fifty Years For One Employer
and Could Not Read Nor Write.

Mineola, N. Y, Fob. 10.-With the
filing of his will here for probate it be-
came known that James Hammond, an
Oyster Bay negro, who died on Jan. IT.,
left an estate estimated at 100000.
Hammond could not read or write. His
will is signed with his mark. He was
upward of seventy years old and for
fifty years had been employed on the
Weeks estate.
The will was made the day before
his death. 1t leaves $4,000 to his
friend James Scudder, the same amount
to Sarah Mayhem Scudder, $4,000 to
Bertha Edith Hammond, his daugh-
ters, and 81 each to a number of
nephews. How many of them there
are he did not know, as he had not
heard from them in years, and they
may be all dead. The three who re-
ceive direct bequests are the residuary
legatees.

WOMEN OF PENNSYLVANIA
MAY SOON BE ABLE TO VOTE

Woman's suffrage gained a very
important point by the passage on
Wednesday of a woman's suffrage
amendment by the legislature. There
is not state in the union so i'm
portant to the movement as Pennsyl-
vania. The rights of man were pro-
claimed from this state in 1875.
Historically and sentimentally Penn
sylvania should proclaim the rights
of women.
The very large vote by which the
bill was passed in the assembly is
significant of the widespread agita-
tion throughout this state for an
equalization of the suffrage. 1t has
been felt that the women are en-.
titled to suffrage as we'll as the
men and that it should be given
them. If they want to exercise it
all right. If not, they will not be
committing any greater breach
against citizenship than the thous
ands of men who after more thar
a century of suffrage for men are
still not educated to the point of ap
preciating the right of suffrage.
From all indications Pennsylvania
women will soon be able to vote. Twt
years more remain for agitation o
the subject. This period will be val
liable for more thorough educatioi
and certain it will be that the WON
en- will be more qualified for exercis
ing suffrage than the great mass o
men were when granted suffrage.

Army Worms Deadly March.

The fall army worm is doing great
damage In the south. 1t is estimated
that it has destroyed several million
dollars worth of corn and hay and is
gradually working its way north. The
insect is present in unprecedented
numbers from Louisiana and Arkan-
sas eastward to the Atlantic ocean,
and is destroying corn, cotton, sugar
cane, rice and other crops.
