Every utterance is measured by the rule, 'How many sub scribers will it gain or lose f " Is not this a bilious fsnry, rather than a de -inouitrable fact' No such dogmatic rule exist in Scranton. Here the axiom that obtains is "What' will really bene fit the greatest number' ' A newspaper would bepowerlrss without readers and therefore would be foolish to rebuff them. Hut it li not a trait of the Scran too reader to resent honest utterance, decently and genteelly expressed. If such a trait exist in Lebanon we com miserate Lebanon. BOMK QUIgS pranks are committed nowadays in the name of charity, In the same colntnn of a Gotham newspa per that announces a performance by the gifted members of the Abbey & (Irau Urand Opera company for the benefit of New York's poor, we rend tbatfor similar purposes those emi nent philanthropiiti, Jamei J. Corbatt aadCbarlei Mitchell, having buried the hatchet of perional hatred In a bumper of reciprocal gore, will shake handi and tap each other playfully with soft gloves. It is an open ques tion whloh "benefit" will attract the larger audience; no, perhaps we should say it is iot an open question, since the fighters VlU undonbtedly have several IMF NEW BOULtVARU. I luring the present period of good sleighing the aOt ha again been em phasized that BofUtOBltM need a wider, longer and better driveway than any uow accessible. The spirited equippagrs that have this winter con tributed gavety and ultimatum to the iceuo at North Park have been per Oeptibly and tlnotl dangerously ham pared by the lack of room for r acing md speeding exercise. Only the an perior generalship of the ingenious dliveti in the friendly speed competi tions on this short qturtur-uule stretch of narrow road bel has prevented col lisions and accidents that are paiulul even when Inagimd With an auuder and longer course tin Mjoymont that could be derived from this healthful and faeolnatlng pistiim would be gr.-aCy increased What is true iu winter In this re spect is even more not iceuble iu sum tn-r. The charming drives that are features of nearly every other city of consequence in the eastern states are altogether lacking in BofMtOA, Oaee outside the city limits and beyond the cleanly asphalted streets, the searcher after pleas mt lane and reals is com pelled to pass over several miles of dirt roadbed and jolty rock surface befortJ he can reach a driveway oOUlnE any where near the standards that obtain in rural or suburban New York or New Eogland communities, lu.lee l.it is al most Ufcssary to go oer into Wayne county to find any serious resemblance to these drives; au I even here, the pic tamqtMMM is the the work of nature rather than design; while the roai beda at best are merely glimmering suggestions of whit they might be. The demand for a suitabls thorough fare which has been entertained for so many years bv those Sorantonlanl who posaaM the tfflutOM Bad the lei stir j en abling them to enjoy the pleasant exsr cie of honenonthip will, it is hopl. he gratified in the construction this sutnruerof the contemplated bonier ltd to Elmhurst. The route selected for thi passageway is compuable with any in piotnretjtttnsai and the proper ex'cution of present plans will put the artificial portion of the boulevard in thorough keeping with nature's icenio a iornment. Forming as it does nlmoU a tangent to Nay Aug park, the boule vard will have a tendency to excite renewed interest in this prospective pleasure ground and thus, while open ing up new means of enjoyment to the more affluent ela is of onr citizsns, con tribute at the same time to the pleasure of those who lack the means of driviug in smirt turnout of their own. Itiscertainlyjtime forSrrantoniins to !o something toward the adornment of their rural surroundings, and the boulevard oti-rs one excellent chSBOS, which, it is pleasant to know, will bs improved without unnecessary delay. CHASING LUNAR TRADE. An ovation of which any man might be proud whs tendered last Saturday evening to Charles Emory .Smith when he rose, at the annual dinner of the New York board of trade and train .lortation. to follow William L. Wilson in the utterance of a toast. Mr. Wil sod, with au apologetic anxisty which very thoroughly indicated that ho had done something in need of pallia tion, had spoken briefly upon the ex periences of a tariff reformer. For courtesy's sake he was accorded a de sultory round of applause. lint when Mr. Smith followed with a polite ex pression of dissent from the Wilson brand Of SOOOOniOl, there WM a suc cession of cheers and hand clappings that must have made the gentleman from West Virginia fee) dijciJsdly un comfortable. And no wonder. For Mr. Smiths toast was a masterpiece of doxteront rebuke. Witness this single para graph : iJuriug the soleiidor nf our prosperity, before the Migbr. fnllupiii us, the sun m it Hank every twenty four hours Into the (iirple-tiuted bOSOfll of the Pacific Raw tins Republic $.i.nOO,000 rich-r than il was tbn day before. The American people were gaining a tv.u-im I m i i .. uyear. We hiM rn'.ee than n lifth nf the entire wealth of the world. I join you in seeking inter national trade, but I dn not forget that o ir home commerce li mom than twnnty Bve timet as great as our for-ign COm merr.o. I 'St not forget thatwhil all the Imports of all the wnrld amount to little more than i;,000,OUO.OMi a year, our domes tic exchanges rise to the colossal prnpnr nons of f"iO,ii'o,iHMi,iKi) AndlwhstsVat our afllliatlnni I lielleve that we shall all BgrB that in chasing lunar trndn we are not ready to sacrifics the snn of our prosper ity. The ntprosiion "chasing lunar trade," thus so happily applied, bid fair to become a political olassic. It Just liti the queer antics of which Mr. Wlliou I the pirent and type. One thinks at once of the inpractlcable ca nine who bayed himaelf lean and thin out of emollient sentimentality toward the distant moon, when he could, by utilizing the opportunities that lay all about him, have bad a good timo and lis coinesleek and fat. The plaintive Demo cratic howl for lunar tra la, u the ex peuse of our every-day horns prosperity, is an exact representation on s larger scale of the folly of the moonstruck dog It ispretty and bizarre and curions, but for all that It is practical business lunacy and it need never expect to receive the permanent indorsement of level headed business nun. 4i - FEELING THEIR WAY. The Democratic P;)iladlphia Hec nl think that "if the Wilson bill was chargeable with all the shut-downs which took place months in advance of iti enactment, It is certainly entllted to claim credit for all the re-opeuingi which have marked Its passage by the bouse " This ingenious partisan plea wholly loses light of the faot that the "re-opinings" which the Record so gladly clutchei at. as the drowning in.. ;i is said to clutch at straws, are at tended by wage reductions that aver -age from tifteeu to twenty five per cent, and by tbo almost unaulmoui ex planation that the resumption is tem porary sud toutativ. Qood 'f ituplni are supplied by lev ral industrial in our own city, which, realizing that raw material now held in stock cannot be sol I unless nut in m rohantahle form, have arranged to 'lo tba manufacturing HOW, in the thick uf winter, out of consideration for the dependent families of their Othsrwlie Worglssi employes ; and will trust to luck lor the marketing of the finished products, If the Wilson bill passes senate and president iu its prst St obnoxious form, this finished stock will have to be eacrihV'd at euoh rates as the market, upon 11 low tariff basis, will yield Thereafter the business of manufacturing to this city, if it shall see a chance to c iiitinue at all, will necessarily have toejo so upon such a wage basis si will enable it to compete in our American markets with thelm ports from olieap-labor pro luclng coun tries, temporarily ohsaptasd with a view to undermining our higher wage heme Industrie!, A current labor note iu the s line is sue of the Record from which we ex tract the foregoing soutence says the average daily wage in Mexico is twen ty seven cents" Does tho Record really think that in the rough proceises of mannNutnring tho American pro ilnosr can pay a wage six times as high and yet continue to compete under a lowered tariff and under cheap water transportation with tho production which would lm soon stimulated in our neighhorinu' Republic' Tho manufac turers of Scranton are not anxious to face such competition, without corro spoudiiig wage rsdnotioni Are those of Philadelphia ' Resumptions at this time are evi deuces simply that the manufacturing interests of the LTuited States are feel iug their way. They can be encour aged or they can be again discouraged. It rests with tho senate, directly, and, indirectly, with the people who will soon register their will in the premises, to say which it shall be. 1 ;oiind And Noted heaven into the newspaper fold early iu life He is u writer of wonderful ability aud excellent judgment, whose articles fairly ilssli w ith liumur.

The original "So. ro wai the prop erty of Preiident Thomas A Scott, and was, in its day, thought amarvol of comfort and convenience. 1 in otis occasion President Scott wa on a trip of inspection and stopped at Huntingdon, Pa. The car was in spected to see if it was in good running order aud the water tank of the ear was replenished. This latter duty was assigned to a "helpet' around the sta tion, who. by the way. was a green haul and fresh from Erin's soil. The "greeny" placed a ladder against the forward p irtion uf the car and pro ceeded to .mil) with a large pail of pure mountain water from the Alle ghenies. Inside the car and directly in the seat next the water cooler sat the president of the Pennsylvania rail road, conversing with several men The man of "all jobs" proceeded with Li work, and polling open one of the eb vator windows, which he supposed to be tho openiug to the water tauk, h poured in tne water. ass In a moment President Scott was npou the outside of tho car pretty well drenched and looking for, as he ex pressed it, the "greeny" that did the work. He called to the helpar and asked bow long he had been employed lu his capacity, but instead of an answer the son of Erin remarked in an inimitable brogue, "Sure and I didn't know you wsre in the tank ' This was toomnch for the old president, who, despite his drenching, burst out laughing mid re entered his car, loaving the poor fellow in ft quandary, an 1 today tho bslpST still occupies a position on the Penn sylvania road, only he has rlssu a de gree or two above the one in which he started. see There is probibly no prominent cili z -n in this sction who is more total 1 oblivious of the aeasonaliln elements than Colonel U. (J. Sclmonmaker, the chief promoter in, founding the Subur ban Home colony at Klmhnrst. While the maj irity of our well -to-do people ire en joying the delights of skimming over the snow-covered, thoroughfares to the merry jingle of sleigh bells, and tiro participating heartily iu other sports of winter, Colonel Sehoonmaker stays at his nlllj in the Common wealth building, dreaming of buds and blossoms and broad tlslds of green, as ue busily works upon plans to further bsMtlfy Btnhnrsl during the com itiir season. The colonel is at pre out. engaged iu studying plans for spring tree planting that htvo been ail) -mitted by William Webster, the well known lau Incip gardener nf Roches ter, N. Y.

Materials for the elegant stone mansion wlilrh will occupy the cold spring lot ate now being transferred to the ground, and it is probable that the home will be ready for occupancy before the close of the coining summer. s S s The bids for the Elmhnrit boulevard, in which so many Scrantonians are taking a lively interest, will be opened on Saturday next, mid the specifica tions call for the completion of the road by August I. The original route of the bonlsvard has been changed in or der that better grades may bo prncurud and the road will bs about a mils longer than the tint survey Indicated. Owing to the improvements in the gradoi by the alteration, the diitnngs can be mule In lgis time than by the old route. The trees and brush have been removed for a space of twenty -live feet each side of the center line nt the road from Nay Aug Falls to Kim hunt and the work upon the driveway will be pushed rapidly at the opening of spring. 1 - B lmful of Wit and Humor.
