SCRANTON, JANUARY 5, 1895.
:
THE SCRAXTOX OF TODAY.
Come and Inspect our city.
Elevation above the tide, 740 feet i ,
; Extremely healthy.
Estimated population, 1891, 103,000.
Registered voters, 20,599.
Value of school property, $750,000.
' Number of school children, 12,000.
Average amount of bank deposits, 10,
1100,000. It's the metropolis of northeastern Penn
sylvania. Can produce electric power cheaper thun
Niagara.
No better point In the United States at
Which to establish new Industries.
See how we grow:
Population in 1860 S.223
Population In 1870 8".000
Population In 1880
Population In 1890 '5-215
Population In 1891 (estimated) 103.UJ0
And the end Is not yet.
There Is room for a greater Scran'tom
without g-olng outside the present
boundaries of Scirawton.
One Remedy for Over-Taxation.
We give place, in another column, to
nn interesting communication nominal
ly poking fun at a cartoon In yester
day's Tribune, but really calling atiten
4Ion to the high rate of taxation In
vogue dn this city! The complaint is
common that In proportion ito rents and
realty prices, taxation for municipal
purposes Is ait an extraordinary natch
In Scranton. Our correspondent inti
mates, in fact, that next to Elizabeth,
N. J., Scranton Is the most taxed city
Jn the country. This tax burden, to be
eure, does not fall upon our Industries,
which can, for a long period after their
establishment here, usually secure an
exemption. Neither is it felt to a fie
llotts extent by ithe tenant class, since
tt Is a common remark, among our busi
ness men that It ia cheaper 'to pay rent
than toown a house, competition among
landlords having reduced central city
residence rents to a point that In some
cases probably renders this statement
true.
The burden rests, therefore, upon the
email land owners and upon those who
invest savings in homes of their own.
These, always the backbone of every,
community, are taxed heavily because,
os a rule, they submit to It. The ex
tremely poor people, who could not sub
mit, escape to some extent and the
Urge land-owners and corporations es
cape . because . they are influential
enough to look after their own inter
oats. Scranton, in this pantlculair, is
probably not different in principle from
moit cities. The only difference Is in
degree. Scranton, for one thing, id a
comparatively young city. It has had.
In one generation, to build public im
provements and establish municipal
conveniences in the duplication of
which most ctlie have occupied an
.entire century. This has made the tax
raites thigh, for the present, In order
that they may be low In the future.
'Scranton, secondly, has an extraordi
nary amount of ddle land which, be
cause of its ownership by Influential
corporations, is -held In the expectation
of a rise In value and under-assessed
accordingly. The burden of thla dis
crimination has fallen upon Just such
propetijles as the one which our corres
pondent descrdbes. An equalization of
these burdens would appreciably re
Jtere the tension which the small property-owner
begins to feel during a
period of depreciated incomes.
What do we suggest as a remedy?
Many things are suggested which the
locad public would probably not In
dorse. We know of one excellent lm
mediate remedy, however, that If It did
,not wholly revolutionize the trouble
complained of would be quite certain
to partially relieve It. If good, eub
tantlal, trustworthy business men
were elected to councils, men owning
homes of rhedr own and having per
sonal knowledge of the needs of their
ward and of the city at large, tha
, amount of public money expended Inju
diciously would soon decrease, and with
It would go some portion of the high
taxation that is the special grievance
of our valued correspondent. The ap
plication of honesty, courage and abili
ty to the traneactlon of municipal legis
lation would be the first thing that
we would advise In the case of Mr.
Hannah and of the 'hundreds of Scran
torvtans who aire similarly situated. -
John Bums declares that he perceives
premonitory nymtoms of tendencies in
this country whdeh threaten to bring
about a crisis compared with which the
French revolution was merely a by-
. play of children. John Is doubtteeu pre
pared ito apedfy these symptoms at 75
cents per ticket of admission,
1.
We are glad to notice that the efforts
of our local authorities to secure the
conviction of the person guilty of ths
death of Mrs.. Thomas Watklns have
received the commendation of citizens
- irenerally. The crime by which this
death was caused is not only a sin, In
morals, but It la a sin the legal side of
which is too often neglected. The per
son who kills another in open battle,
face to face, may be guilty of homicide,
but the guilt is trivial compared with
that of the heartless parent or un
scrupulous physician ' who, the one
through cowardice and the other for
hire, sacrifices a pre-natal life In the
utter helplessness of Its emtryonlo con-
dltlon, Jeopards ' the wolfare of the
mother and strikes an indirect blow
at the very cornerstone of society the
purity of the home. The arm of the
law ought to be unsparing In its pur
suit of those who pursue the nefarious
trade of the abortionist.
The call for a mass meeting of citi
zens to protest against the slaughter of
the descendants of the Armenian Chris
tians by Turkish brigands or Kurdish
outlaws will doubtless be criticized by
some persons because of the distance
separating Scranton from the scene of
the protested atrocities. It Is to be re
membered, however, that all civiliza
tion la concerned in this problem. The
question at Issue is fundamental and
vital -to Christian people everywhere.
and a remedy will not be applied unless
a:t the behest of an united and indig
nant publlo sentdrrient commensurate
wlt'ii the parent evil's awful enormity.
The Progress of riedical Science.
The introduction of anti-toxin into
the ouratlve processes of this communi
ty Is an' experiment which must prove
its own value. In other places, under
careful supervlalon, this recent addi
tion to the world's list of inoculative
medicines has demonstated that It can
greatly reduce the ravages of diph
theria. What has been done elsewhere
ought to be equally possible In Scran
ton, among physicians of established
and wldwly-recognlzed skill. The test,
therefore, will be awaited with keen
anxiety by those who realize the im
portance of immunity from this terri
ble contagion.
It will -'Interest those who have not
paid much attention to recent changes
In ithe science of medicine to call their
attention to the considerable Impetus
which the successful application of the
serum of infected animals to the in
oculation of the human body is giving
to the comparatively new germ theory
of dlsjase. Ten years ago few persons
outside the laboratories of learned
specialists believed that many, :if not
all the ailments,' from .which humanity
suffers, are nothing less than the work of
minute parasites which prey upon the
human body, deriving life at the ex
pense of life. Today this theory Is so
generally accepted that the statement
of it da almost superfluous except as In
dicating the rapidity of a widespread
recent mental revolution. When an ori
ginal investigator like Professor Coles,
of Kingston, brings to science's aid
an optical apparatus which shows us,
In pulsating and vivid activity, the
very andmalculae which throng our
epidermis or ulot Inside the corpuscles
of our blood, and brings the germ theo
ry of disease from a kind of abstract
hypovhosJls down to a demonstrated and
shocking fact, those persons are 111
Informed Who regard his work with in
credulity, for It Is simply a logical ex
tension of a now universally conceded
tenet of physiological science.
The line of reasoning which presup
poses that if smallpox can be avoided
through the toxilcal Instrumentality of
vaccdne; tuberculosis greatly lessened
by the counteracting effects of a vital
lymph; dipsomania checked by the use
of gold bichloride, and diphtheria
averted through the agency of anti
toxin It will be equally possible, in the
course of tdme, to work out new solu
tions to other kindred or correspond
ingly virulent diseases Is sound In logic
and perfectly natural. Men are now
alive who will live to see new empires
conquered dn the domadn of medical
science along this very line. The dis
eases which confounded our fathers are
already simple to us. The ailments
which we cannot bafile will undoubted
ly be unfolded before the searching in
quiry of posterity. Yet death will, after
all, beat science at the mllepost, and
humanity In the aggregate will be how
much better off?
We are of the opinion that the
llthlc pavement ought to go.
The .United States senatorshln In
Michigan, just bestowed on Julius
CaeBai-.Burrows, has been entrusted to
capable hands. Mr. Burrows, has few
equals as a ready debater;lhls knowl
edge of public affairs Is accurate and
Widespread, and his Republicanism is
no recent caprice. ' Another nleasinc
feature of the selection, to Pennsjiva-
nlans, consists of the fact that it opens
the .way for Thomns B. . Reed to an-
polnt as chairman of the next commit
tee on ways and means Mr. Burrow
junior'in service, John Dalzell.

For Better Statutes.
The Philadelphia Ledger voices a
general sentiment when It asserts thnt
"some method should be Invented for
the more speedy publication of the new
lawsasHed at each session of the state
legislature." In New York state, where
special legislation obtains; the laws re
lating to each community are adver
tised In designated newspapers at! the
state's expense. This plan would prob
ably cost too much In Pennsylvania,
where legislation In the main Is general
In its application. But it ought to be
possible, . without material extra ex
pense, to bring the various acts oi each
session together In convenient form
within a month subsequent to adjourn
ment. At present a year Is very likely
to Intervene, during which time the
public Is compelled to remain In Ignor
ance of the law.
A cognate reform has been suggested
In the call recently Issued for the or
ganization at Harrlsburg of a State
Bar association. In this call attention U
directed to the prevalence in the legisla
ture of bills' which, while proper enough
In Intention, often defeat their own
purpose through careless phraseology.
We do not have to search far for an
example of this type of legislation. One
Is fresh In mind in the case of the Kline
law creating the office of county con
troller In counties having 150,000 or
more population a bill excellent In mo
tive, but rendered Inoperative because
through a curious oversight It neg.
lected to terminate the superseded of
fice of the county auditors. Those who
are at the back of the movement for a
State Bar association cite among the
advantages of such an organization the
fact that It would enable the lawyers
of the state to more effectually co-oper
ate with the law makers, not In dictat
ing the subject-matter of future legls
latlon ' but In lending symmetry and
uniformity to the form of the statutes.
It would please a majority of laymen
if to these two Improvements a third
one could be added, In the form of a
general simplification of ths phrase
ology of . the statutes. Perhaps the
principal reason why the masses do not
keep better informed as to thilnew leg
ation enacted by our generaX ossem-j
biles Is because the wording of that
legislation is repulsively hackneyed,
circumlocutory and verbose. The de
mands upon the modern citizen's time
are sufficiently varied and voluminous
to render It Impossible for him to waste
much of that time In the perusal of the
redundant Jargon of the statute
makers. If the gist of the matter were
crisply expressed, he would find it not
only valuable but Interesting; and the
popular knowledge of current legisla
tion would be appreciably Increased.
Whether such simplification Is possible
while a learned profession reBtB much
of Its occupation upon the complexity
of legal verbiage Is perhaps doubtful.
We heartily concur In the protest of
those who resent the petty action of
certain members of common council
in trying to lialve the nlghit lunch
wagons removed from the streets. If
the opposition of these councllmen to
the wagons were carefully analyzed it
would probably be found to rest largely
upon the fact thait these night luinohes
are 'not free luniohes.
"Sand" Is the name of a bright little
paper published monthly at Tine Bluff,
N. C, by Frank P. Woodward, formerly
of Dunmore. "Sand" Is devoted to the
exploitation of southern Interests and
southern opportunities. It Is up to date
and full of grit.
The crime of which the woman phy
sician, Mrs. Vail, Is accused is nothing
less, In morals, than deliberate murder
for pay. We trust there Is little of this
villainous kind of assassination prac
ticed In tihls community.
Organized labor will always be handi
capped pu long as lis leaders quarrel
among themselves.
LEGISLATIVE TOPICS.
1 ho Tax Receipt Abuse.
Pittsburg (.'ommerclul-aazette: "Sena
tor Blown has Introduced a bill at liar
rlsburg making It a penal offense for any
committee or member of a political com
mittee, or any rumlidnto for public ollice,
to pay state und county taxes for voters.
This strikes at a custom which has pre
vailed to u greater or less extent all over
the state, and which hus become a fla
grant abuse in the larger cities. This l
not only a corrupting practice as regards
the low estimate which It places upon the
privileges of citizenship, but It Is In thu
nature of a bribe offered to the voter.
There are conditions tinder which It Is
not only proper but commendable for a
person to pay the delinquent taxes of a
fiiunil or acquaintance, but the wholesale
purchase of tax receipts by political com
mittees for the purpose of catching votes
is a violation of the spirit of the election
laws, and ought to bo severely punished.
The bill above referred to provides a pen
alty of $50 for each offense, summary Jur
isdiction being given to magistrates, al
dermen anil Justices of the peace. In case
of refusal to pay the fine the person ad
judged guilty is to be imprisoned In the
county Jail one day for each fine im
posed, Vt hen It Is known that tax re
ceipts are obtulned by the thousand In
this way at every Important election the
necessity for some stringent legislation on
the subject Is apparent."
Senator l'llnn's Road bill.
Pittsburg Times: "It is doubtful If any
bill offered in the legislature this winter
will be of more substantial Importance
than Senator Minn s road bill. In brief.
It tukes the control of the public roads of
all counties out of the hands of the town
ship authorities, unci vests It In the hands
of the county commissioners of each coun
ty. It wipes out the ollice of township
supervisors and abolishes the practice of
working out road tux, stipulating that the
work of road making and repairing shall
be done by contract, by the lowest re
sponsible bidder, and paid for in cash;
the money to be provided by a special an
nual road tax levy of one mill upon the
reul and personal property taxable for
county purposes. The need of a radical
reform of our road laws has been mucn
considered by practical men In recent
yeurs, and they should have something
wise to say. The time hus come to puss
an art. Nor do we see that any act will be
worth missing If It does not ubolish town
ship supervision, and the system of work
ing out road tax, which In nine town
ships out of ten has been either a farce or
a waste."
Prompt Publication of Laws. .
Philadelphia ledger: "In former days,
when special legislation was the vogue,
the pamphlet laws were very voluminous.
and there was some excuse for their tardy
appearance. The new constitution
worked a rhnnge. The acts of assembly
for a single session are now contained in
a vslume of small size, which could
readily be published In a short time. The
volumes are, however, gradually growing
larger. In 1879 tho laws passed, with tho
list of charters granted, filled a book or
2T3 pages. In the session of 1893 the laws
and titles of charters covered 818 pages,
the laws themselves requiring 618 pages.
If the experience of the past two years Is
to be repeated, the present legislature
will give us a larger output of new legis
lation. ' This should be accessible to the
public In Its completed form as soon as
possible."
m m
Freight Hauling by Trolley.
Philadelphia Stockholder: "At the pres
ent session of the legislature a bill that
will lie pressed for passage will come from
those Interested In electric railways out
side of large cities, and Its purpose will
be the legalization of Hie transportation
of certain classes of merchandise. The
farmers have demanded the enactment of
such a bill by their representatives.
claiming (hut It will add greatly to their
convenience In reaching the markets with
products of their gurdens, orchards and
poultry yards."
Cnro of the Indigent Insane.
Philadelphia Press: "The question of
the state care of the indigent insane Is
one which the legislature will have to
look sqimrcly In the face at the coming
session. The present effort to carry out
such a policy Is only a pretense. If the
work Is ,to bo made effective und proper
there must lie Very considerable Increase
In the state hospital accommodations,
not only In the western part of the state,
but In the eastern part as well."
'
Unfairly Condemned In Advance
Philadelphia Times: "If the leaders of
the legislature and Governor Hastings
shall not set their faces like flint against
all prolllgnta measures at the Blurt, the
session will Inevitably drift Into waste of
the public revenues ami provoke the con
tempt of tho people of the state."
POLITICAL POINTS.
Senator Quay will leave Washington for
Florida within ten days. -
William Dawson's position as doorkeep
er of the senate Is worth (0 per day while
the session lasts.
The Pottsvllle Miners' Journal doesn't
think much of the Scranton gubernatorial
boom for the reason that "Mr. Scranton Is
more than seven."- Others thought this,
too, prior to last Monday.
The, position of reading clerk Is worth
$1,800 for the session to James E. Wat
kins. In the event of a special or
extraordinary session, his pay would te
$10 a day additional. The mileage allow
ance Is 10 cents per mile,
Carbondale Herald: "The Indications
now point to the election of Homer Greene
as congressman from the Wayne-Susquehanna
district. Mr. Greene Is one of the
most talented gentlemen In our Bectlon of
Pennsylvania, and his many admirers, of
whatever political creed, will be pleased
that he has received political honors. If
more men of his caliber were to Interest
themselves In the work of conducting the
government, the result would be a higher
regard for our publlo servants in general,"
AMONG THE ALMANACS.
The Norrlstown Herald presents to us,
with Its compliments, a dainty calendar
which would fittingly keep that excellent
Journal fresh In the memory every day In
the year f It were not itself In pleas
ant evidence among our slate exchanges.
Politics apart, WllllamBport has no bet
ter newspaper than Postmaster Sweoly's
Sun, a fact of which we are newly re
minded by receipt of the Sun's 1895 al
manac. The man who wants to keep in
touch with Lycoming county aflalrs will
need both the Sun and the Sun annual.
The Philadelphia Inquirer's remem
brance for the current year Is In tho form
of a handsome lithographed calendar
showing a chubby baby holding up the
figures "189G" and other cherubic counten
ances peeping at the spectacle from be
hind the skies. It Is a dulnty achievement
In color printing.
