LIGHT UPON BOND ISSUE.

The following interesting para
graph has been handed us for publ
cation. 1t throws considerable light
upon the bond issue for the building
of State roads.
1t is expected that within a short
time the resolution to submit to the
voters the proposed amendment will
be laid before the two houses for ac-
tion. Contrary to general opinion,
this measure, which passed the last
legislature without opposition, does
not provide for the entire bond issue
in lump. 1t provides that the debt
incurred for road building may not
exceed $4,000, 900. If the people
approve of the amendment after it
passes this legislature, the legislature
has full authority to decree that only
Sic, 900 of bonds may be sold
in any one year or any two years and
1t may never authorize the issuance
of bonds to the limit of $50, 100000.
1t is the plan to ask the Legislature
to pass such enabling legislation as
may provide sufficient funds to main
tain a continuous building program,
covering half dozen or ten years,
the arrangement to be that certain
amounts of bonds may be put out
from year to year and made re-
deemable within certain periods, so
that the sinking fund, which will
bear interest as a State deposit while
accumulating, can be drawn upon to
redeem bonds after five or ten years.

message to the Legislature, a bill
will soon make its appearance in the
House of Representatives. The
measure is now being drafted and
will be completed probably in time
for it's introduction this week.
The bill will give into the super
vision of the new department the
power to enforce the laws of the
State affecting labor and to gather
statistics for the purpose of franz
ing in the future laws which would
prove beneficial both to the labor
element and to the employer.
The proposed legislation will com
bine the present Department of Fac
tory Inspection and the Bureau Of
Industrial Statistics.
1t is the intention of Gov. Tener,
if the proposed bill passes, to appoint
as the head of the new department
the most competent man he can find
and one who will be entirely agree
able to the labor interests and to the
employers as well.

Honesdale Business News
Weekly Advertising Excursion Among Honesda|e Busi-
ness Houses PERSONALLY Conducted" by F. P Woodward

ugn HIS department is something new
for The Citizen, and will be
found in the Friday issue from
week to week. 1t properly be-
longs to this paper, for we aim to
tell all the local news, and trade
news is no less NEWS because it has
for it's basis the joint financial inter
ests of merchants as well as those
who patroniZe merchants. In fact,
this will be the Honesdale business
mems advertising clearing house,
and it shall be the aim of the one
who conducts it to make it as full
of interest as any other department
of the paper.
Why not?
Surely Honesdale business men
have much of interest to offer to the
people OF northeastern Pennsylvania,
and it shall be the aim of this paper
to carry their doings to it's many
readers from Friday to Friday.
Of course what will be said about
merchants will be really and truly
advertisements. There is nothing
hidden or covered up about that part
of the department. Far be it from
the writer or from this newspaper
to carry the idea that this is either
a "jollying" or a charitable depart
ment, for it is neither. 1t is busi-
ness department for business men,
made as bright, as forceful and as
newsy as we have ability to make it.
One of the features of this per
sonally conducted excursion" will be
some helpful talk along practical
advertising lines every time that the
department is published.
There is a marked difference in
the business announcements that
will appear here from week to week
from the regular advertisements that
are displayed in our regular adver-
tising columns.
Here is the difference. Ponder
over it carefully and you will see its
force:
In your display advertisement you
are talking for and about yourself
as embodied in your business.
Modesty forbids the average person
from telling as much about himself
as he can tell or ought to tell.
In this department somebody else
is TALKING FOR YOU-has ac-
tually become your representative,
your drummer, your commercial
traveller. 1t tells how your business
and your offerings look to other
folks.
Now, that is all we are going to

HARRISBURG LETTER

Harrisburg, Feb. 20.-The past
week in the lower house of the Leg
islature was largely taken up in con-
sidering liquor questions, matter in
which the people of the Common
wealth are always interested. Moth
ing ever comes before the lawmak-
ers in which there is deeper or
more widespread public interest than
regulation of liquor selling. The bill
offered by w. w. Ulerich of West
moreland county sought especially
to stop the peddling of liquor in We
hicles by brewers in towns, villages
and manufacturing plants in the in
dustrial sections of the State.
Through this peddling brewers and
wholesale liquor and profitable busi-
ness to the great injury of the re-
tailers. There have been many COM
plants against this active peddling
because it puts liquor right at the
door of the consumer and relieves
him of the labor of going after it,
Indeed, the inhabitants of industrial
communities are solicited day after
day by brewery agents who send in
the orders by mail or phone, and the
liquor to fill these orders is deliv-
cred next day at the house of the
man who gave the order. Many big
coal companies have complained
against this system, alleging that Its
effect has been to demoralize theiI
business and break down the sobriety
and good habits of their men.

House Drainage Must Not Be Dis
charged In Creek.
Norristown, Pa, Feb. 2O.-The court
decided in favor of Mrs. Mary B. Wan
amaker, wife of John Wanamaker, and
her son, Rodman Wanamaker, in their
action against Alvah Bushnell and 9TH
er Philadelphians, residing in what is
known as the Jenkintown syndicate
tract at Jenkintown, to prevent them
from discharging their house drainage
into the water course which flows
through the Wanamaker estate, caus-
Ing pollution which, the plaintiffs al
lege, is offensive and detrimental to
health.
The injunction will not become oper-
ative for year after the final decree of
the court, but the defendants must
forthwith construct a catch basin to
prevent the offenses complained Of
flowing upon the Wanamaker property.
Within IA year it is expected that the
proposed $4,000 sewer system will be
established by Jenkintown, and the
houses of the defendants may be con-
nected Herewith.

BANKS, OIL KINGS AND POETRY

One of the best speeches made in
Scranton on Wednesday night at the
second annual banquet of the Retail
Merchants Association, according to
the newspaper reports, was that of
VIM. H. Peck, of the Third National
Bank of that city. Mr.. Peck talked
on the subject with which he is un-
doubtedly most familiar, that of
banks and banking. He showed the
necessity of the bank to the trader,
under the present laws of commerce,
and urged that the merchants of the
city strive always to keep their cred
it, (Which he said is the basis of
business), clean. If they do that and
weed all flimflammers from the busi-
ness life of the city, they will find
the banks their friends in the hour
of need.
Mr.. Peck then scored a point on a
line that reminds us"-every last
one of us, by telling of his expert
ences in retailing. He said that he
finds every ton of coal he buys
smaller than the others, and illus
trated the point with rhyme, which
he quoted as follows:
"Old King Cole was a merry old soul;
/ A merry old soul was he;
He weighed in his drivers with every
ton of coal,
! And also his ShOVe1arS thraa -
If Mr.. Peck is the author of tina
bit of poetical jingle he certainl!
ranks along with John D. Rockefel
Ter, who is said to be the author o
the following:
"A wise old owl sat on an oak;
The more he saw, the less he spoke
The more he spoke, the less h,
heard.
Why can't you be like the wise oil
bird?"
The oil king composed this bi
of good sense in rhyme for the bene
fit of class of trained nurses tha
he was "fathering," as it were.

TRADE DAYS-AT HOME AND
ABROAD,

Scranton has taken positive action
through an organization that is called
the Scranton Commercial Associa-
ton, and hereafter that city is to
have a monthly trade day. The AS
sociation held a meeting at one of
the swell hotels of that city last week
and decided that the trade day was to
become permanent event, for the
benefit of out-of-town people, and so
that matter is settled.
We also note with surprise that
our neighboring city feels aggrieved
because some of her citizens and
citizenesses find occasion to go to
New York or Philadelphia to do their
shopping. That is strange, isn't it
now? Why don't they stay at home,
and Watch Scranton Crow"
Here is a fact for people in Wayne
county to bear in mind. Honesdale
merchants are fully competent to sell
all staple articles at as low prices as
can be offered in Scranton or else
where. They buy their hardware,
dry goods, clothing and other staple
articles from the same manufactures
that Scranton merchants patronize.
Their rents and fixed expenses are
lower, and they can and Do sell
goods fully as low in price as do the
merchants over in the Valley on
trade days or on other days.
Scranton, or Honesdale, or any
other place has a perfect right to
hold trade day." so long as trade
is conducted along proper fines and
not on lines of destructive competi-
tion.
Honesdale newspapers have a per-
feet right to accept advertisements
from Scranton, Carbondale, Port Jer-
Wis or other merchants, when such
advertisements are along straight
lines of honorable merchandising;
but when Advertisements are proffer-
ed that are on their very face pre-
judicial to the interests of Honesdale
and Wayne county merchants, being
in fact baited hooks thrown out af.
ter Wayne county cash, then all
such advertisements should be re,
jected as UNFAIR.
There is a law in Pennsylvania
that covers what is known as con,
spiracy. A conspiracy must be the
concerted action of two or more per
sons. Now, when two or more
Scranton merchants get together ant
agree that on a certain day they will
sell certain articles at much lesi
than legitimate trade will warrant
in other words, if they sold their en-
tire stock on the same basis the.

would soon have to retire from busi-
ness, then it looks very much as if
morally, if not legally, those mer-
chants are guilty of the crime of con-
spiracy.
Do Wayne County people-do
Honesdale people want to join hands
with conspirators? If they do, then
The Citizen very much mistakes the
character of the good people of this
part of the State.
OF course, Honesdale merchants
will not be caught mapping. They,
too, will hold a trade day, and
prices will be as alluring here on
the banks of the Lackawaxen as they
can possibly be on the banks of the
will be that Honesdale merchants
will offer legitimate reductions on
their lines of goods, and Wayne
County purchasers will surely stand
for that.
One merchant told the writer, yes,
we will tell you his name, it is j.
Sam Brown, the furniture dealer,
that on Honesdale Trade Days his re-
ductions cover every article in his
store. Now that is the way Homes
dale is going to conduct Trade Day
business, and that is the way that
will satisfy all people who want to
see a fair deal for merchants as we'll
as purchasers.

EUROPE's WAR SCARE OVER.

BULGARIA Territorial DISPUTE,

Powers Likely to Settle Roumana-
Bulgaria Territorial Dispute.
London, Feb. 20.-While alarm at the
respects of European war over the
Bulgarian-Roumania territorial dis
pute had subsided, there was still some
uneasiness over the situation. The
general outlook, however, was much
better than it has been since Sunday.
Most of the European stock eX-
changes were showing recovery from
the depression which the reports of
friction between Austria and Russia
caused. However, there was a panic
on the st, Petersburg bourse, and
there was much excitement in the Rus
sian capital over the rumors of i'm
pending war

BECAUSE HE LEARNED TO
TALK"


BY f. p. w.
He tried to make his business grow
BY various plans and schemes,
Including gifts of this and that,
And other lurid dreams,
And yet the blamed old biz would
balk,
He couldn't turn the trick;
His neighbors, too, began to talk,
Their talking made him sick.
He turned, he twisted, gave his notes
To pay his bills past due,
He borrowed here, he borrowed
there,
His friends grew less than few;
He dreamed of increase to his biz,
The floor at night he walked,
1t seemed success would ne'er be his;
And still the neighbors talked.
At last there came a certain day
When every scheme had failed.
He thought he'd be a bankrupt,
sure,
Or else that he'd be jailed,
When all at once, like lightning's
flash,
The thought flew through his
brain,
you've lost your grit, you've lost
your cash,
You've badly played the camel"
Suppose that now you turn about
And play the game once more
Don't let the neighbors run your biz,
Their talking makes you sore;
TALK FOR YOURSELF, and talk
right out,
Make plain your claim for trade!
Tell all about the goods you sell!
TALK LOUD! BE NOT AFRAID"
And so that man began to talk,
His ads were always new;
The public quickly found his store;
His business, how it grew
His notes were paid, he made new
friends,
His neighbors ceased to mock;
Instead of borrowing, now he lends,
BECAUSE HE LEARNED TO
TALK.
