CASEY ASP|RES To
PALMER'S PLACE
Wilkes-Bare Congressman Likely
to Oppose Vance c. MeCor-
mick, Slated for Job
MEANS A NEW PARTY FIGHT
Palmer Issues an Appeal For
Funds to Pay Committee Debts;
Philadelphians Meet

Judging from gossip heard in Wash
ington. Vance G. Mccormick is not
going to have a walkover to secure the
Democratic national committeeman
ship for which rumor says he was
slated recently at q conference of
Democratic fractional bosses. The
story from Washington is that Con-
gresham John J. Casey, of Wilkes
Barre, will contest the honor with Nc
Cormick when the State committee
meets.
1t is not known that Mccormick
is burning with anxiety to take the
place, as 1t entails more or less re-
sponsibility which is not pleasant when
a State committee has a bale of debts
and his official connection with the
machine would seem to imply that he
ought to help clear up what was in
CURED when he was candidate. 1t
has been intimated that some of the
Democratic bosses are more eager to
have Mccormick run than he is to en-
ter the campaign. He was psetty bad
ly clawed up in the last Democratic
campaign and he would have to en-
counter more fighting to get the ma
tional committeemanship.
Casey is red-haired and halls from
Wilkes Barre, which sent him to the
Legislature where he sponsored the
first employers liability bill. He has
the largest family of any one in Con-
gress and has managed to win pretty
regularly in Luzerne. He refused to ac-
cept the declaration of A. Mitchell Pal
mer that Congressman John V. Lesh-
er, of Sunbury, should be elected as
Palmer's successor on the ways and
means committee in Congress and
went into the fight and beat Palmer,
Lesher and the rest of their crew.
Friends of Casey say that he can
do more in month to harmonic the
Pennsylvania Democracy than Nc
Cormick could in a year.

EASY WAY TO MAKE
HAIR ATTRACTIVE

Ladies who find trouble in properly
or attractively arranging and dressing
their hair should try using a little
Partisan Sage twice daily for while
and note the remarkable improve
ment. Partisan Sage, which can be
obtained from F. D. Pierce or any
drug counter, makes the hair soft,
lustrous, fluffy andiwavy, takes out
the dull, lifless appearance, dissolves
dandruff and stimulates the hair roots
into healthy and normal action. In
stead of merely sprinkling the hair, it
should be rubbed right into the scalp
with the finger tips. Partisan Sage is
a delightful treatment for both hair
and scalp, cannot possibly injure the
hair and is very inexpensive.

ARTHUR D. WORBOYS.
Nearly 81 years ago a son, Arthur,
was born to Charles and Louisa
(Dwire) Worboys of this place. At
the age of twelve he had scarlet fever
and it left him a cripple. No one
knows the disappointments and suffer-
ings endured by Arthur these last
forty-two years, but through it all he
has been pleasant, even jolly and in
unnumbered ways has been of much
usefulness to the family. He never
was idle and was beloved by everyone
who knew him. Passersby will greatly
miss the pleasant nod and smile and
wave of the hand for Arthur was
always on the lookout for his friends.
He had a nice tenor voice and sang a
great deal. His was a beautiful
Christian life, making one better just
to associate with him. Since the
death of his parents he has made his
home with his brother Ernest and
family. Arthur passed away July 20
after being confined to his bed for
| several weeks with rheumatism and
complications. The funeral was held
at the home on Friday afternoon and
large number of relatives and
friends were present. Rev. j. W..
Burgin spoke touchingly of the beau
| tiful life of the deceased, assisted by
Rev. W. r. Price, and burial in the
family lot in the family lot in the
village cemetery. The bearers were
Eugene Clark and Herbert Driver and
two cousins, Chester Gray and Fred
Dwire. Arthur lay surrounded by
many beautiful flowers. They were
from relatives, friends, and the orders
here. The sister, Mrs. Walter Hill
dreth, and the brother, Ernest, and
their families are the only near rela-
lives remaining and to them our
sympathy is freely given. The little
nieces, Veda and Olga, were Arthur's
especial care and Joy.
Gard of Thanks-We wish to thank
all who have in any way made life
brighter for our beloved brother, and
for the many flowers brought to
his funeral. Also for the many words
of comfort given us in our hour of
sorrow.

WATERWAYS AS A
MEANS OF DEFENSE
National Rivers and HarbOrs
Congress Will Urge Mobili-
zatiOn Feature

Washington, ID. Waterways as
a means of national defense will be a
keynote struck at the next convention
of the National Rivers and Harbors
Congress, which meets in Washington
ID. c., December 1910. This topic
will be treated by Congressman j.
Hampton Moore, of Pennsylvania, who
has studied the subject thoroughly
and is well qualified to speak with
authority. With preparedness the
crucial issue before the country this
discussion is especially opportune. 1t
is expected that Representative Moore
will stress the value Of improved in
land waterways as an aid to the
speedy mobilization Of American
forces in event of threatened inva-
sion.
The National Rivers and Harbors
Congress plans to hold tremendous
convention, as strong protest against
the bitter attacks made recently upon
waterway appropriations. "The pro-
per improvement of the nations
worthy water courses" will be the
battle cry.
Among the prominent men who will
address the organization will be Gov
ernor Edward F. Dunno, Of Illinois,
whose subject is "The Illinois Water
way" The VESTS interest in water
ways will be championed by the new
senator from California, Hon. James
B. Phelan. The Missouri river which
was so caustically criticized by ex-Sen-
ator Burton, will be the subject Of an
address by Senator "Jim" Reed Of
Missouri, who will fire the opening
broadside in its defense.
